Can You be My Capillary

09

"We just did three rounds, come on let's make if five." She was so persistent in convincing me to do another round. Holding both of my shoulders and shaking it a bit with her pouted lips and puppy eyes.

No, Rosie...not this time.

"Talo ka lang, e." I said, teasing her. Side of my lips were now forming a smirk, making her puppy eyes to turn into a dark and sharp stare. And both of brows are now furrowed which made her look so annoyed, it's satisfying.

We went up to the second floor of their house, and we stopped on the third door, it was her room.

As soon as she held the knob and opened the door, which made a creaking sound, a bright space welcomed us.

The wall was painted in pastel pink color and the curtains were combination of pastel gray, white and pink. It's so soothing to my sight.

When you entered her room, there were small sets of sofa placed in front of a large flat TV. There was a set of complete entertainment appliances. There were lots of different CDs, whether it's for a game, movie, series, music and even documentary film you can see it there. A CD player is pretty latest one plus bluetooth microphone. This is heaven to one's sight.

Her bed is covered with pastel gray matress as well as her blanket and pillows.

Beside her bed is her mini library. There were like three shelves that were filled with books. Both international and local books.

Since we went up here Rosie was extremely excited to open the TV and told me to play TEKKEN with her. She sounded so confident that she will kill my character in an instant when she handed the game controller.

She is a good player but, I was better. I think she wasn't like to get step of her ego so she told me to do another round and another round. But, the result of the rounds were still the same. I can smash her character easily at the end.

"Naka-tsamba ka lang, e!" She said looking so annoyed of my teasing smirks. I let out a scoff and turned a sight on her. She rolled her eyes intently on me. I raised both of my arms as a sign of defeat. How can I win with those cold stares?

"Hm..." I tilted my head and half way closed my eyes, annoying her more. She sighed and turned off the T.V. after that, took the game controllers and put back to their place. Now, it's silence that occupied the space again.

Nang ibabalik na sana niya ang C.D. sa lalagyan nito ay bigla na lamang nag-iba ang timpla ng mukha niya. Nakita kong ngumiwi si Rosie. Crumpling her chest and about to vomit. I was stiffened and didn't move in surprised but, she managed to smile on me before she went to the comfort room in a hurry.

"Okay ka lang?" I asked as I went to the door of the c.r. leaning my ears into it. I was trying to hear a response but, I didn't get one. I panicked a little. So, I repeated my question.

"Okay ka la-" I was about to knock but I didn't even finished my question because she opened the door and curiously stared on me. "I'm okay. Vomit. Normal na lang." She smiled sweetly to assure me. I sighed in relief.

"Gutom na naman tuloy ako. Hays! I'll just get some snacks sa baba, ah? Wait mo ako rito." Aniya while gently caressing her tummy.

I nodded so she made her way out and went to the kitchen to grab snacks. I was sitting on sofa, patienly waiting.

"Wooo! Let's eat." Masayang sambit ni Rosie sa impit na boses. She cooked ramen, brought snacks, canned juice at pati na iyong cake na natira kanina. She brought all by herself, she said she can manage and I'm a visitor so I just let her. Although, I felt a guilt when I saw sweats running down to her face.
