llysa
i almost choked on my food when i saw the notification popped up. lihim kong sinulyapan si jake na nasa kabilang side ng table at katabi sina rafael.
he's holding his phone, intently staring at it, habang nasa gitna siya nina jimin na mukhang may kung anong idinadaldal at kay yoshi na mukhang walang pakielam at hawak lang ang kanyang phone.
napatingin ako sa katabi ni jimin na si rafael, and beside him is jin. nasa side namin si van na nasa tabi ni jishei. at jin's side is rosie, sumunod si hobi na kanina nga ay lumipat sa tabi ko, and lastly, jenna.
"uy, hindi pala kayo friends sa facebook?" hobi curiously asked. loudly. napapikit ako para i-kalma ang sarili ko dahil napaka gulo niya kanina pa. sanay na sanay ako sa kanya pero hindi sa ganitong paraan! paniguradong narinig ng lahat ang sinabi niya. living megaphone yata ito.
baka sabihin pa ni jake na ikinu-kwento kong iniadd niya ako sa facebook! bakit niya ba kasi ako ini-unfriend noon?
"sino?" si yoshi na kalmang nagtatanong.
"si jake." mas lalo akong mariing napapikit nang sagutin nga yon ni hobi. "oh, hoy okay ka lang?"
sarkastiko ang iniharap kong ngiti sa kanya at hindi na ako sumagot.
"bakit hindi kayo friends sa fb?" jin asked.
bakit ba sobrang matanong nila?!"yeah why? we've been friends for like... almost 10 years." rafael followed and sipped his glass of blue lemonade.
i was about to answer when... "eh kasi ini-unfriend ni jake si llysa noon." rosie interrupted.
How long can i stay calm?
"inunfriend mo si llysa, bro?!" van shouted that, asking jake. jung hoseok kasi eh!
palihim kong inapakan ang paa ni hobi saka mapait na nginitian. ngumiwi naman siya saka nag peace sign.
"y-yeah.." jake mumbled.. i have no idea why he stuttered.
"eh bakit?!" patuloy na tanong ni van. isa pa 'tong isyoso.
"diba, umamin si llysa noon?" napapikit ako sa hiya nang si jimin ang sumagot non. napalingon ako kay rosie na may kung ano anong ibinubulong.
"ah oo nga." jin was the one who answered. he faced us again. "but that was 2 years ago, diba?" he added.
"bakit kailangang i-unfriend?" yoshi asked. why are they even digging through the past?
jishei spoke, ignoring yoshi's question, and then faced her brother, "oo kuya." nilingon niya ako, we stared at each other and it's like we talked through our eyes. "tumahimik kana."
jenna laughed all of a sudden. ae all looked at her. napahinto siya sa pagtawa saka kami tinaasan ng kilay. "what?"
"crazy." yoshi said, that made jenna roll her eyes.
kinalabit ako ni rosie kaya napalingon ako sa kanya. "why?" mahina kong tanong, pilit umiiwas na mapunta sa akin ang atensyon nila.
"accept mo na," She grinned, teasing me. i glared at her. "bilis!"
hindi ako sumagot at ibinaling ang pagtitig sa phone ko.
"you said you already moved on right? ito na yun, llysa! a chance for your friendship. friendship lang naman." ani rosie saka muling nilantakan ang mango ice cream na hawak niya.
i sighed and opened the app again.
