TOBI's POV
"It's Kuya Vico." sabi ko saka ipinakita kay Zenice ang phone screen ko.
She suddenly got attentive.
Sinagot ko agad ang tawag at ni-loud speak yun.
Pero mabilis na kinuha ni Zenice sakin yung phone.
"Kuya Vico?" agad na sabi niya.
"Z-Zenice..." rinig naming sabi ng nasa kabilang linya. Parang nagulat pa 'to na si Zenice ang sumagot.
Ano ba talagang nangyayari??
"Where's Isela? Did she contact you?"
"A-Ah... Y-Yes.. S-She just arrived in... M-Mexico---"
"W-Why?? Was it b-business related??" tanong agad ni Zenice.
Hindi kaagad nakasagot si Kuya Vico.
"I actually... d-don't know...Wala siyang sinabi. S-She just said not to worry and I don't need to contact her." he said.
"What about me? H-Hindi niya ba 'ko b-binanggit?" umaasang tanong ni Zenice.
"It was just a brief call Zenice. W-We didn't talk much."
She let out a weary sigh.
"D-Don't worry Zenice. B-Babalik din yun si Viah. I'll try to call her agai---"
"Kelan siya babalik Vico?" Zenice asked.
Natahimik ang kabilang linya.
Hindi maganda ang pakiramdam ko sa patutunguhan ng pag-uusap nila kaya nagsalita na 'ko.
"Zenice. Let's just wait for her call---"
"Shut up, Tobi." mabilis niyang pigil sakin.
Wala naman na 'kong nagawa kundi tumahimik.
Zip.
Tsk.
"Answer me, Vico." seryosong sabi niya.
"H-Hindi niya daw sigurado..." he said.
She froze.
Dahan-dahan niyang naibaba ang kamay kasabay ang pagkahulog ng phone ko.
Buti nalang sa sofa bumagsak.
