ASH LEE’S POINT OF VIEW
I’m staring at my ballpen while thinking about what happened last night. Totoo ba yung mga pinagsasabi ni Alexis? Di pa rin ako
makapaniwala.
“Did she really have a crush on me?”
I asked myself, at ano rin yung narinig ko na she joined the volleyball team because of me? Why??
Pero first things, first, bakit ko naman masyadong iniisip yung nangyari kagabi? And why do I feel so bothered eh lasing lang naman si Alexis.
Malay ko ba kung totoo yun eh baliw na baliw yun kay Henry. As if naman magugustuhan ako nun eh right from the beginning, I’ve never been good with her.
At ayaw rin naman sa’kin ni Alexis. Hello, until high school never kami nagkaroon ng interaction na matagal at kung mag-iinteract man kami pag required lang.
Kahit nga yung first meet namin ni Alexis nung 6 years old palang ako hindi na maganda. Magkaiba ba naman kami ng ugali, kaya siguro kahit gusto ng parents namin na maging magkaibigan kami, never nangyari.
FLASHBACK
“Can you promise to behave at your Tita Alia’s house, baby?”
M
ommy asked me, while we’re on the way to their friend’s house.
“Alexa, ikaw yung panganay, bantayan mo tong kapatid mo.”
“Yes, mom I will.” Ate said.
I was just busy watching from the window of the car while holding my teddy bear.
“Masusundo po ba kami ni Dad mamaya?”
“Si Kuya Albert na susundo sa inyo mamaya. Dahil nasa business trip ang Dad niyo and night shift din ako sa hospital ngayon.” Mommy said, as always.
“You’re always busy naman eh.”
I said, hindi ko maiwasan sumagot dahil ganun naman lagi yung ginagawa nila eh. I heard mommy sigh before answering me.
“We will make bawi after our work baby, okay?”
Mommy said, I just pretended na hindi ko narinig yun. Malaki na rin tampo ko kila Mommy, alam yan ni Ate but Mommy and Daddy doesn’t see it.
“Basta magpakabait kayo sa bahay nila Tita Alia niyo ha?”
“Who are they ba?” Ate Alexa asked her.
“Our family friends, doon muna namin kayo iiwan para makilala rin nila kayo. Kakauwi lang kasi nila from US so it’s good to have a connection with them.”
Mommy said. Bumuntong-hininga ako at sumandal sa may upuan ko.
I waited na makarating kami and we arrived sa isang malaking house.
Kasing-laki lang ng house namin but different design and it looks amazing also.
Bumaba na kami ng car and sinalubong kami ng iilang babae na ka-age ni Mommy, I held Ate’s hand habang sumusunod kami sa kanila. Nililibot ko rin yung tingin ko sa paligid.
