Chapter 17

Andrew

I just had a few hours of sleep. My conversation with Ice keeps on rewinding in my mind.

I keep on searching myself for my feelings.

No it can’t be.

Tanya is Tanya. Ang babaeng may sapi.

Sure. She’s gorgeous. The sophisticated, supermodel type of girl.

But she’s not my type.

What I want for a girl is sweet, poise, angelic, caring, sensitive. Just like Charlie.

Hindi katulad ni Tanya. She’s so barbaric. But being herself makes her more interesting. You just can’t predict her.

Am I interested? I’ve known her for quite a few years already, when Zachary got engaged with Charlie. I haven’t felt this way towards her before? Why now?

If you ask me if I like her then, the answer is a fast NO!

But right now…. I don’t know…. I’m not so sure….

Why am I feeling so unsure right now? Nagbabago na ba ang taste ko sa babae?

AAAARRRGGGG!

Baka naman nadadala lang ako sa mga sitwasyon. She needed help. Baka naman naaawa lang ako? Or maybe I just felt the need to protect her because she’s like a sister to me, at binilin sya sa akin ni Stanly, bago sya pumunta sa States.

Pero…. Sister lang ba? Parang hindi e… I think it’s more than that….

A good friend? Best friend like she always refers to me?

I refuse to believe that I’m in love with Tanya. That can’t be. It’s ridiculous. It’s not possible!

Or is it?

And about Ice?

I changed my mind. Nagbago na ang isip ko sa napag-usapan namin. Yes, it’s true that I told him otherwise. But, so what?

Why do I have to back – off?

Kung mahal nya talaga si Tanya.

Paghirapan nya!

If he sees me as a threat. Then a threat I will be. He has to prove that he’s worthy of her affection. Then if he can prove that… maybe, I’ll back –off. Somebody’s got to do it since her brother’s not here.

I don’t know what time is it or how long I have been staring at the ceiling. I tried my best to go back to sleep. Pagod na rin ako sa mga nangyari sa buong maghapon, idagdag pa ang paggising sa akin ni Tanya kaninang umaga.

Pero kahit na anong gawin ko, hindi pa din ako dalawin ng antok. My mind is racing, at ang daming pumapasok sa isip ko. Hindi talaga ako makatulog! I kept on tossing and turning,until the time I felt someone opened the door.

Oh boy. Here she goes again…. Umaga na pala.

Ano na namang kalokohan ang iniisip nitong babaeng to?

I closed my eyes and pretended to sleep.

Naramdaman kong lumapit sya sa kama. Siguro tinitignan nya ako.

“Sleepy head…. “ she whispered.

I heard her yawn. Palagay ko ay hindi rin sya masyadong nakatulog. Kung sabagay masydong maaksyon ang araw namin kahapon. No wonder she’s still sleepy. Maaga pa syang nagising. I now know that she’s not a morning person.
