"I mean? I just met him? Isn't it a bit too fast?" Nagkatinginan si Aryanna at Annica bago ibalik ang mapanudyong mga mata sa akin.
"Jesus! I hope it's a guy!" Sigaw niya Annica bago lagukin ang kape sa harapan niya.
"Of course it's a guy!" Sita ko sa kanya.
"May problema ba kayo sa mga babae?" Inirapan naman kami ni Aryanna kaya parehas naman kaming natawa.
Andito kami ngayon sa loob ng condo ni Arya. Si Annica kasi nagpapatulong sa Physics niya kaya sabi ko ay makikisabit na ako dahil magpaptulong din ako kay Arya sa isang subject ko which is wala naman daw siyang problema.
See this girl? She's just brilliant at everything and I sometimes envy her for being a natural genius. Ako kasi kailangan ko pang sunigin hindi lang ang kilay ko maging ang lahat ng buhok sa katawan ko just so I could master one topic. ONE TOPIC ALONE
"So asan si guylalu ngayon? Sigurado kang lalaki iyan, a. Drop name. Gonna hit up my social Media account." Saad ni Annica kaya naman agad akong napainom sa kape ko.
"Gregorio Ibrahim Dela Luna?" Hindi ko pa siguradong sambit.
"Is that the guy on your last d-day? Iyong may salamin na gwapo at super duper hot?"
"Oo, siya nga."
"Jesus! Monique! It's a yes! Oo na agad! Ako ang maid of honor! Your theme should be pastel violet and white! Congratulations! You're pregnant! I'm going to be a ninang!"
"Hoy! Fill me up!"
"Anong maid of honor! I'm not going to get married!"
"Ay kung ganoon kagwapo! Hahatakin ko na agad sa altar, Monika! Yes, father I do agad!"
"I'm not getting anything from the both of you!"
Napailing na lang ako ng i-exagerate ni Nica ang kwento kay Aryanna on how godly Rahim is. I know his gwapo but Nica's really over reacting this one. Siguro ay dahil ginawa niya na yatang hobby ang pagpapalit ng lalaki at pang-ghoghost sa kanila sa mga nagdaang taon. She's Annica! What can I say, aside from her pride and ego, she's everything but pretty and manipulative for some guy. Kaya walang problema sa kanya ang lalaki, madali lang siyang nakakakuha noon at nakakapagpalit.
If I'm going to describe Rahim from my perspective of him from then and now. I might say that he's a little more radiating more than ever. Hindi na siya ganoong nagsusungit, though still in his poker face, nabawasan na ng iilang kunot ang noo niya. Mas malumanay na siyang magsalita sa akin, he doesn't curse that much anymore. It's been weeks since he said he 'likes' me and I kinda observe all those little things that shifting, BIGTIME, because it's Rahim and good deeds are far from his basket of vocabulary.
Nang mag-buzz ang phone ko ay nakita ko agad ang isang text ni Rahim at halos malaglag ako sa couch ni Aryanna ng mabasa iyon.
From: Rahim
I'm at your house. Your parents want to talk me. I guess, you should be informed. Have fun with your friends."Oh! No!" I shouted at agad napatakip ng bibig ng basahin ulit iyon.
"Bakit? Buntis ka?!"
"Annica!"
"Rahim is in my house!" I blurted out. Aryanna's eyes widen, being the supportive one, while on the other hand Annica 's hysterical laugh busted all over the room.
"I should go home! I should go home!" Natataranta kong saad.
"Relax! Sabi rito sa text, have fun daw! So dito ka lang." Para akong mas lalong kinabahan sa sinabi ni Annica. Ang mala-demonyo niyang ngiti ang mas lalong nagbigay sa akin ng ideya na hindi magiging maganda itong gabi kung mananatili ako rito.
