When The Rain Falls (COMPLETED)

PART 2 OF 17

Hanggang saan ba aabot ang pagmamahal ng isang tao? I don't easily fall in love especially to a person that I didn't really knew enough. But everything changed when this guy came without any signs. Or maybe that dream was a sign but I'm very blind to realize that.

"The hell, Calyx. Where did you get my number?!" I asked because I didn't expect that he knew it. It's been days since he confessed but he already has my number.

"Secret," may biro sa kanyang tono kaya sinamaan ko siya ng tingin.

"Anyways, where do you want to eat?" Calyx removed his attention to me and asked my friends. Wow? Hindi ba niya ako tatanungin? Seriously?

"Kung saan gusto ni Alexa. Date niyo dapat 'to, eh!" malakas na boses na sinagot ni Heisha ang tanong ni Calyx. Bigla akong nag panic dahil napatingin ang mga estudyanteng nakatambay dito sa waiting area.

But I just calmly acted while looking at those students so that they will ignore it. I also faked a smile but deep inside I'm already freaking out.

"You choose. My treat," Calyx also answered without lowering his voice. Pinagtinginan ulit kami ng mga tao pero mas ginusto kong manahimik kesa mabigyan ng malisya. Shit, ayaw na ayaw ko talaga sa mga taong mai-issue.

I decided to answer him so that we can already get out of here. I rolled my eyes to my bestfriends who are now smiling at me like crazy women. Even if there are eyes who were looking at me, I still managed to answer Calyx in a calm and friendly tone.

"We can eat anywhere," I answered because I don't have any place in mind.

"Where's that anywhere?" may halong pang-aasar sa sagot ni Calyx. Nagbuntong-hininga ako at mas tinaasan pa ang pasensya dahil ayaw kong lumabas ang pagka demonyo ko dito.

But then Heisha whispered me to choose the most expensive restaurant because it's Calyx treat. I struck Heisha's shoulder because of what she said. The hell, I'm not a gold digger.

"Ay, Calyx. Mukhang bet ko kumain sa Italiani's restaurant. You know, doon sa Ayala." walang hiyang sagot ni Lestina kay Calyx. 

Gusto ko sanang pumalag ngunit nilingon ako ni Calyx at tinanong kung kung sasang-ayon ba ako, pero wala na akong choice para mag reklamo kaya sumang-ayon na ako para hindi na humaba ang usapan.

Pero shit, pwede bang umalis na 'tong mga kaibigan ko? Bakit ba kasi pinapasama pa ni Calyx, eh! Nagpapa impress ba siya sa kanila para sagutin ko kaagad? Nah.

Hindi naman kami nagtagal sap ag-dedesisyon at umalis na sabay sakay sa kotse ni Calyx. Pinagbuksan din niya ako ng pinto sa front seat kaya sumakay na ako kaagad.

My friends are so noisy and they keep on talking about me that I obviously heard. So annoying.

"Hoy, 'wag niyo 'kong pag-usapan kung naririnig ko naman." supladang sabi ko pagkatapos naming nakasakay.
