"hihiwalay kayo?" rosie asked. Her eyes widened a bit.

"ano?!" inis na sabi ni jenna. "pano ako?wala akong kasama, ang pangit niyo."

jishei and van laughed. "eh tinawagan ko naman na si yoshi," van's eyebrows wiggled, teasing jenna. they both left the café, holding hands.

napairap ako. anong gagawin ko ngayon?

"bwisit kayo," it was jenna again.

jimin sighed. "ako rin mauna na.." he stated and stood up. jimin walked away.

we all looked at each other.

"anong nangyari sa gagong yon?" napaangat kami ng tingin nang marinig ang boses ni Yoshi. lumapit siya kay jenna. "tara," aya nito.

jenna looked curious. "ano? saan mo ako dadalhin, aber?" masungit na aniya.

"basta, tara na kasi." nagpatianod na rin sa hila.

kaming tatlo na lang. right. anong pwedeng gawin?

i was about to speak when rosie's phone that was placed on our table took all our attention. bigla itong tumunog.abilis niya itong kinuha. she looks like she read something from it, bago tuluyang tumayo.

"bye! love you both!" saka nag- flying kiss habang naglalakad saka tumalikod.

oh shit.

"what are we going to--"

he cut me off by suddenly putting his arms around my shoulders. "love.. ito ba gusto mo?" hawak niya ang menu ng café. "strawberry cake?" he even added.

kunot ang noo kong tumingin sa kanya. "k-kakatapos lang natin kumain ha?" i even stuttered. the thing he did startled me!

pano ba naman? we're still overcoming the awkwardness tapos bigla akong aakbayan? anong problema nito?

"makisakay ka.." he whispered, begging me.

i remained curious. okay. what's going on?

"llysa.. go with the flow." muli niyang sabi.

she? who? i heaved sighed. "yes love!" nanlalaki ang mata ko sa kanya habang tinatanggal ang pagkaka akbay.

i was shocked once again when his arms wrapped around my waist. "i love you!" malakas na sabi niya saka ako hinalikan sa pisngi. "sorry.."
