"You-you want me? W-we just met." Nautal kong sinabi.
"Why? You don't want? It's fine with me. Anyways. Where do you study?" He asked.
I crossed my arms.
"Wala kang balak mag tagalog?" Pabiro kong sabi.
He chuckled.
"I'm from UST. I'm taking Arts in Creative Writing." I said. Not looking at him.
"Ahh... So you like Blind Dates? What a hopeless romantic you are. " Sabi niya. He laughed so hard.
Sinamaan ko siya ng tingin.
"First of all, Napilit lang akong pumunta dito ng bestfriend ko. tska I have no plans magkaroon ng jowa." Sabi ko sabay guestures sa kamay.
"At ikaw, Tigil-tigilan mo kaka-ingles mo. Konti nalang at magdudugo na ang ilong ko." I said. Tinawanan niya lang ako.
"Can't you understand English? I heard you speak English just a while ago." Ininis niya naman ako.
Napa-irap na naman ako sa sinabi niya. Konti nalang at kukulo na ang dugo ko.
Biglang nag vibrate ang phone ko ng sunod-sunod.
Nabasa ko ang text ni Ina.
"Zea nasan ka na ba?!?! Kanina pa ako text nang text!" Kumunot ang noo ko while nagbabasa.
"Sis, sorry talaga nagkamali ako ng basa..." Lalong kumunot ang aking noo while reading her messages.
Anong Pinagsasabi nito?
"Anong pinagsasabi mo eh eto na nga kausap ko na iniinis pa nga ako." I replied. Still confused.
Ano ba to naguguluhan na tuloy ako.
"Sorry kasi... I misread it. Nag-aaral kasi ako. Ngayon lang niya sinabi na he's wearing a black shirt and black pants." She explained.
Nanlaki ang mga mata ko.
That means...
Tinignan ko siya.
"Hoy lalaki!" I said loudly. I stared at him.
"What now?!" He asked and stopped on what he was doing.
"Nagpanggap kang ka blind date ko? How dare you?!?" I shouted at him.
I can't believe this. I'm fooled!
"Who was the one who approached me?" Pamimilosopo niya.
Kumukulo na ang dugo ko.
"Antagal natin nag-usap tapos hindi pala ikaw yung ka blind date ko!" I stormed out.
He just shook his head.
Calm ka lang? Di ka takot sa Beast Mode ko?
"YOU'RE SUCH A GREAT PRETENDER!" I yelled.
I saw the guy Ina described who was just on the next table. I walked towards him and completely just ignored him.
Nakakalokaaa!
I sat in front of him.
I don't really understand what he's saying, I'm just nodding to what he's saying kahit hindi naman ako nakikinig.
Umalis na yung nagkunwaring Brent.
Wala na akong gana makipag-usap sa ka date kong to.
Umuwi na ako sa mansion.
I saw Mom.
"Hi Ma. Where's Dad?" Tanong ko.
"Oh. Your dad attends a meeting , so he went to the company." Mom explained.
My parents owns a company and factories. Sila yung nag mamamanage nun.
Well,ako lang naman ang anak nila kanino paba mapupunta lahat nang yun.
