Cannot Be

Chapter 17

After that, we decided to go home. Hinatid parin niya ako gaya ng nakasanayan. I don't know, but I got the feeling na hindi ko siya kayang pakawalan. Yeah, I know I'm overthinking. But, I can't stop thinking about what he said earlier.

"I love you, very much. That I could go against everyone."

He doesn't say things he didn't mean. Pero dapat magtiwala ako, diba? Oh my gosh, me and my judgemental self again.

"You can sleep." he said while driving. You think I should? Hindi naman ako inaantok. Nageenjoy din ako sa paligid.

"Ayoko, kung gusto mo matulog ako nalang magd-drive." I said. Marunong naman ako magdrive. Hindi nga lang ganoon ka pro. His eyes widened.

"I don't want to die, byby." he said while chuckling. I rolled my eyes and get my phone. Sabagay, ayoko din namang mamatay.

I secretly took a photo of him while driving. Alam niyo na pang instagram lang naman. Hindi rin maiwasan ang mga fangirls ni Race. I always see their rants on my posts!

Kesyo mas bagay daw sila ni Race. Eeww! Feel na feel ni ate ghorl. I really got this attitude. Hating people in my mind.

I can't talk with Dice that much. I got that feeling na may something talaga sa kanila ni Ceo! She always smile everytime she receive a message.

Tinutukso pa niya ako kapag ako ang kinikilig! My dear friend is falling inlove. Sana naman wag na ulit maghost. Kaya pala ay hindi nakakajowa dahil ginoghost.

"Tumatawa ka ng mag-isa. Nababaliw kana saken no?" he teased. Nababaliw my ass!

"Ows, ba't ang corny ng tanong mo?" pambabara ko. Tinaasan ko pa siya ng kilay. Napanguso naman siya at umiling. Tutukso-tukso siya, di naman nananalo saken.

I can't help, but to stare at him. His perfect jaw, chinky eyes, and red lips. It's really adorable. Anyone who would see him, would be attracted. Anyone who will know him, will be inlove.

He's too perfect for me. Hindi siya iyong ipapamukha sayo ang pagkukulang mo. Hindi nga niya gusto na bilhan ko siya ng kahit na ano. He wants to spoil me. Kaya ako na mismo ang nagtitipid para di siya gumastos ng malaki. I felt my phone vibrated kaya agad kong tinignan iyon. It was a message from Dice.

Dice:

Hoy! Saan ka ngayon?

Ow! Bago 'to ah? It's been a while since she last texted. Pero syempre ayos lang. Alam ko naman na masaya siya sa ginagawa niya. Kahit di ako pansinin niyan, kaibigan ko parin iyan.

Me:

Race is driving me home. Why?

I asked. Baka aayain na naman akong gumala? Lagot ako kay Wave kapag nalate ako. Para pa namang machine gun amg bunganga dinaig pa si mama.

Dice:

Samahan mo naman akong magwalwal dito sa bahay.

I stiffened. I think she has a problem. No, she really has a problem. Hindi ako sure kung papayagan ako, pero kaibigan ko kasi 'to. Kaisa-isang kaibigan. Hindi ko naman hahayaan na mag-isa siyang magmukmok.

Hindi ko muna siya rineplyan at tinawagan ko si mama. I need to ask for her permission muna.

"Yes, Abby?" she asked.

"Ma, Dice needs me right now. Ayos lang ba kung malate ako ng uwi?" I asked. Dice is my very first friend. Ngayon lang siya nag-aya na magwalwal.

"What's wrong with Dice?" there's a sign of worry in her voice. Dice has been very close to my family.
