Wala kaming pasok ngayon kaya dito ako nagstay sa unit ni Twixx. Nanonood ako ng TV habang nagsashower si Twixx sa loob ng kwarto niya.
Napatingin ako sa cellphone ni Twixx na nakapatong sa lamesa dahil sa sunod-sunod na text message ang narecieve niya.
“Twixx…”kinuha ko iyong cellphone ni Twixx at pumasok ako sa loob ng kwarto.
“Meron nagmemessage sa ‘yo”
“I’ll be there”he replied.
Binaba ko iyong cellphone niya sa kama pero may biglang tumawag sa kanya. Katherine? Who’s Katherine? He never mentioned a girl named Katherine. Sinagot ko ito pero hindi ako nagsalita.
“Twixx? Where are you? Kanina pa ako nandito…”I ended the call and read her messages.
Katherine Sy: Binondo.
Katherine Sy: I’m here. Matagal ka pa ba???
Katherine Sy: Papagantayin mo pa ba ako? Dadating ka pa ba?I delete the messages and the call logs. Nasaktan ako sa nabasa ko. Is he cheating on me? The best way to find out is to meet that Katherine.
“Twixx, may bibilhin lang ako…”I felt my voice cracked. I can’t hold back the tears.
“I thought we’re going to have a movie time?”
“Uuwi rin ako. I’ll see you later”I wear his hoodie as I walked out the unit.
I also wiped my tears. Ayoko maghinala kasi alam ko na hindi niya iyon gagawin sa akin. I trust Twixx.
Dumiretcho ako sa place na tinext ni Katherine. As I walked inside the restaurant, I saw the only girl waiting. Ang ganda ni Katherine. Iyong buhok niya ay sobrang bagsak. Maputi rin siya at kahit wala siyang make-up ay sobrang ganda niya.
“Are you waiting for my boyfriend?”I pulled the chair on the front of her.
“Boyfriend mo si Twixx?”she asked me and I nodded.
“He texted me. Magkita raw kami ngayon. I didn’t expect that this is all a game for him, he’s always wasting my time”she gave me an eyeroll.
Sobrang attitude, sobrang ganda rin naman kasi niya.
“Sorry if my boyfriend is wasting your time”I smiled at her.
“Pumunta ka ba dito para awayin ako? Go on. I am giving you a lot of reasons to hate me”she said.
Ang ganda pero sobrang war freak.
“I didn’t came here to cat fight with you”I said as he arched his brows. “I just came here to meet you”
“For what reason?”she asked while her arms are crossed.
“I just want to meet Twixx’s friend”I said as I shrugged.
I trust Twixx.
Alam ko na babaero siya pero may tiwala ako sa kanya. Hindi niya ako proprotektahan ng ganito kung hindi niya talaga ako mahal.
“Hindi ka ba na tritriggered na baka maagaw ko sa ‘yo si Twixx?”I stood up while my eyes are still starting at her,
“Not one single lady can make me jealous over a guy I already dealt with, Katherine”I said.
Kitang-kita ko iyong reaksyon niya. Hindi siya makapaniwala sa sinabi ko. Hindi ako iyong babae na inaakala niya na papatol sa kanya. I know that he’s making things up like what Twixx’s mother did. Kahit magtulong-tulong pa siya, hindi ko iiwan si Twixx.
“You know what, Katherine?”I took a deep breath and placed a money for her food.
“It takes a real man to realize that the attention of one woman is enough.”I said before walking out of the restaurant.
