Kahit Kunwari

"I missed you." Ako habang nakayakap kay Ally. Mas lalo yata siyang gumanda, mas mahaba na rin ang buhok niya sa akin. She's just wearing a light make up. Ronnie smiled at me ang hugged me a little.

"Good to see you, Grae." Si Ronnie. Matapos ay tumungo sa mga lalaki na ngayon ay nagkakatuwaan na at inaasar si Ronnie. In love na in love ang mokong.

"Let's eat! Gutom na ako eh." Ally snaked her arms to me and Kyrsten.

"You didn't tell me, babe." Si Ronnie at lumapit kay Ally. Give me a break people! Natatawang lumayo si Kyrsten, so I did too. Napagdesisyunan namin na kung ano ang pinakamalapit na pwedeng kainan ay doon na kami kakain. Luckily everyone's schedule is not too tight today.

Kay Caleb ako nakasakay. Si Kyrsten naman ay kasama sa sasakyan ni Gio. Dave brought his car too. Si Ally at Ronnie ay sa kanya sumakay. Ej and Denise is together of course. I don't how I am able to be with them in the same place. But I know I should be used to this. It's not as if, matatakasan ko ito. Ej is matured enough to handle the situation, so I will likely to do the same.

"What do you want to eat?" Caleb asked me as we get out of his car. Talagang mcdo pa Ej? Sila kasi ang nauuna sa lahat kanina. So sila din ang namili ng makakainan. Oh, hindi naman siguro kasi nagkasundo kami kanina na kung anong unang kainan ang madaan, iyon ang kakainan namin.

I'm still full but I know I still have to eat. Isang malaking table ang kinuha nila. Ronnie, Ej and Caleb went to the counter.

Hinayaan ko na silang mamili. I can eat whatever meal in this fast food.

Denise is staring at me. It's as if she's trying to remember where she first saw me. Or is it just me? I don't know. Nang makita niyang nahuli ko siyang nakatingin sa akin ay ngumiti siya. I know that smile, and it's real.

"Grae, we have to talk about a lot of things. Like as in, lot!" Ally is sitting beside me. Kyrsten is on my side leaving one chair beside me.

"That's for Caleb." She snapped at me.

I didn't give any comment and just talked with Ally. Kyrsten is just silently listening to us. Denise is on her phone.

"Sure! Marami ka talagang dapat ikwento 'no!" Ako at masayang yumakap sa gilid niya. I really missed her.

"At ikaw din hoy! 'Wag kang ngingiti ngiti dyan, Kyrsten Jules." Inismiran naman ni Kyrsten si Ally.

I saw the boys coming. Ej is holding a mcflurry and fries. Good old days? I looked away when he handed those to Denise. Is that her favorite too? Damn.

Caleb placed a tray in front of me. Ang daming fries naman nito? At upgraded pa ang mcflurry. Muntik na ko matawa ng malakas. Is he competing with someone? Silly.

Naging tahimik sa table namin nang may isang matangkad na babae ang lumapit. She's morena. Her high cheekbones is highlighted. She's wearing a denim pants and an off shoulder top.

Tumingin siya sa isa pang mahabang table malapit lang sa amin. There we saw her friends. They're all girls. All of them were pretty good looking tho. But I think she's the prettiest.

Dave became more attentive. Si Gio naman ay parang wala lang. Ej is having fries just like his girl. Kyrsten eyed the girl from head to toe. This girl really! Caleb placed his arms behind my chair. Nakita ko ang pagsulyap doon ng babae.

"Hi Miss!" Si Dave at tumayo pa. Agad naman siyang pabirong sinikmuraan ni Gio.

Kanina ay mukhang nahihiya pa ito, pero ngayon ay malugod na tinanggap ang kamay ni Dave.
