NINTH
Ilang segundong tinitigan ni Sebastian ang text na sinend sa kaniya ni Kai kani-kanina lang. It’s their new Boiz Room’s new password.
“I hate you, Kai. I really, really hate you,” saad ni Sebastian sa nakasarang pinto.
“WRONG,” rinig niyang saad ni Kai mula sa loob.
“Let me in!” sigaw ni Seb habang kumakatok sa pinto.
“WRONG.”
“Vaffanculo!” (Fuck you!)
“WRONG.”
“What are you doing here, Pietro?”
Napalingon si Sebastian nang marinig ang boses ni Hayden. Hindi naman na talaga niya kailangan pang lumingon upang malaman na si Hayden ito dahil sa pagtawag pa lang nito sa kaniya ng ‘Pietro’ ay alam na niya kung sino ito. He really shouldn’t have let him hear how his mutter (mother) calls him.
“Kaius changed the password and how many times do I have to tell you... STOP CALLING ME THAT,” sagot ni Sebastian.
“Really? What’s the new password?” tanong ni Hayden, hindi pinansin ang huling sinabi ni Sebastian.
“Na... ka... ka... pag... pa... ba... ga... bag,” mabagal na basa ni Sebastian sa password na nasa screen ng cellphone niya saka ibinalik ang tingin kay Hayden.
“Times three,” dagdag pa niya.
“Oh, Pietro, you dumbass,” tapik-tapik ni Hayden sa balikat ng pinsan at nilampasan na ito.
“Weren’t you supposed to say ‘dumbarse’? You stupid Brit arsch,” (...Brit ass) insulto pabalik ni Sebastian na tinawanan ni Kai na nasa loob ng kuwarto, nag-eenjoy pakinggan ang panta-trash talk ng mga pinsan niyang Briton at Italyanong Aleman sa isa’t isa.
Hayden just smirked. He also finds it funny because Sebastian rarely talks back. Mukhang inis talaga ito ngayong araw kaya hindi na ito sinagot ni Hayden at pumunta na lang sa tapat ng pinto at kumatok.
“Password?” tanong ng boses ni Kai.
“Nakapagpabagabgab, nakakapabagagab, nakakabapayabag,” Hayden said confidently.
“WRONG.”
“What the—?!” hindi makapaniwalang saad ni Hayden.
“I said it right! Kai, let me in!” pagpo-protesta ni Hayden habang hinihila ang handle ng pinto.
“Password?”
“Oh, fuck this!” inis na wika ni Hayden at sinipa ang pinto. Agad din naman siyang napadaing sa sakit nang tumama ang paa niya sa matigas na pinto.
“Fuck you too, door!” inis na bulyaw ni Hayden sa pinto habang hawak ang tuhod niya. He can’t reach his toe that hit the door and it really hurts.
