Chapter 5: Very Rare Miracle

Nilangoy niya ito at inahon sa tubig. Buti may malay pa ito kaya walang mangyayaring CPR moment, people. Nakakasawa masyado ang scene na yan. Chaka.

He carried her to the ground. Thier eyes met at wala pa lang 5 seconds bigla na lang siyang binagsak sa lupa ni Lance. He looked pissed somehow.

"Aray! Ano bang problema mo?!" She protested.

"Sobra ka siguro talagang nagmadali nang pumuslit ka ano?"

"Ha?!"

"You're not even wearing a bra, damn it!" Galit na hinagis nito ang jacket niya kay Faith. "Wear that!" He said, then brushed his wet hair upwards with his fingers.

*meow*

"Batman!" He called out as he walked back to the house pagkatapos tinali ulit sa puno ang kadena.

*prrr.* reponse ng pusa at nanatili lang sa tabi ni Faith.

"You perverted cat! You're coming with me or you'll get a nice bottomless swimming in the river handcuffed with that diver with you?!"

At tila naiintindihan nga yata ng pusa kaya nasindak at sumunod.

*meow* he paused and glanced at Faith.

"Batman!" He called out again at nagpatuloy na ito sa paglalakad.

It's been about ten or fifteen minutes already at nasa labas pa rin si Faith at wala siyang ideya kung anong dapat gawin.

"Hey!" Lance shouted as he walked to her. "Wear that, chihuahua." He threw some clothes to her face.

"Hey-!"

"Hurry up and wear it, you asshole!"

"Asshole ka dyan! Don't tell me ipagpapalit mo ako dito?!" She protested.

"Darn it." He groaned tapos tinangal ang kadena at kinaladkad si Faith papasok sa loob.

"Aray! Teka nga!"

"Choose. Are you staying or wear a collar outside?"

"What?! Baliw ka ba?! Anong collar?!"

"This collar." He tossed a leather collar with a bell.

"So he can understand tagalog. Wait- is this-." She thought as she checked the collar.

"What am I supposed to be exactly?" She glared. "Pang aso ba 'to o pusa?"

"That's a dog's collar, retarded brat. Can you imagine a cat with that neck?" He rolled his eyes. "The bell is Batman's. You better take care of it, you crappy kid."

"Eh- so... saan tayo pupunta?"

"Tch." He glanced then glared. "To the market, dimwit!"

"Ah..."

"So, are you coming or what?!"

"Okay, okay. Sasama nga. Kailangan bang sumigaw? Saka..."

"What now?!"

"Kaninong- I mean, who's clothes are the-."

"Mine, retarded idiot. Complains?"

"Wa- wala naman-."

"Just fucking get yourself changed already." He left and slammed the door and for the first time, the door is left unlocked.

"Okay?" Inamoy niya ang damit. It's the same mild scent that she always longed since she smelled his blanket. Natigilan naman siya nang narealize na nagiging tila aso na talaga siya sa ginagawa niyang paulit ulit na pag-amoy dito.
