Hit Of Love and Desire (LCS #3)

Chapter 17

Jealous

Wednesday that night I think of what would I give to Stan! His birthday is coming and it's on friday! I can't think what I'll give to him because I think he have all! And now I was here on my bed with milk and pizza beside me while searching for 'what is the best gift for men' I can't decide!

"Why it's so hard?" I wishper and bite on my pizza.

Ngumunguya ako habang nakatingin sa iPod. Scroll up and up. I pursed out my lips, remembering his features. He's so handsome and manly, parang bagay naman sakanya lahat, pati ako.

"Stupid" saway ko sa sarili dahil sa naisip. Pero oo, bagay sakanya lahat.

I look at my phone. Hindi talaga siya nag te-text? Then why he gets my number? Tsk. Hindi naman pangdisplay ang number ko.  Ano kayang number niya? Dapat kinuha ko din. Eh? Tsk.

"Bakit kasi napaka sungit niya" inis na sabi ko. Ano ba kasi? It so hard! Tumulala ako sa iPod, then I try to search. What is best gift for... Boyfriend? Husband? I laughed and hit the boyfriend. But I can't still find. Minutes later I give up. Bakit ang hirap niya hanapan ng regalo, tinabi ko ang plato at baso sa side table then I lay on my bed. I stare at the ceiling. My eyes widened and the bulb inside my brain light up! Right.

"Necktie!" I almost scream, mabilis akong bumangon at kinuha ang phone sa gilid. I know he has a lot of this? I think! Pero may naisip ako. I copied the number of VNM then I dial.  Sinabi ko ang gusto kong ipagawa and if it's possible to deliver it this friday morning, and they say yes!

"Sana tanggapin niya" I wishper after the call.

That night I sleep soundly and peace. Kinabukasan pagbaba ko sa hagdan, nakita ko si Dad na may kausap sa cellphone. Napatingin siya saakin at mabilis na tinapos ang tawag. He's wearing his casual work suit.

"Dasha" he called.

"Dad"

Lumapit ako ng makababa. Nilahad niya ang kamay, lumapit ako. He cares my hair. "Why?" Tanong ko.

"I'm sorry for not letting you to that network" he said. I look up to him and nod.

"I know dad"

He smiled. "Okay, I have to go"

"How about mom?"

Napatingin siya sa bandang likod ko. "I'm here Dasha" mom said. Lumingon ako sa likod, she's wearing a bathrobe.

"I'll go now" dad said.

Mom nodded. Sinundan ko pa ng tingin si dad bago nilingon si mom na nasa tabi ko na. Sabay kaming nag breakfast. She also remind me about my study.

11:45 I arrived at school. I look at my phone, bakit kaya hindi nag te-text si Yana? Dati naman lagi siyang nag te-text, or message me in messenger. I pout. I look up the sky, mukhang uulan nanaman.

"Hi Dasha"

I smile and wave my hands. Pagpasok sa loob ng school agad akong tumingin sa front desk, checking if Stan is there pero wala. Huminga ako at nagpatuloy sa paglalakad, medyo maingay parin dahil sa renovation. Pagdating sa room, agad kong hinanap si Yana, she's already here sitting on her chair while listening to music.

My classmates greeted me, I just smile to them. Pag tapat ko sa line namin, doon lang ako nakita ni Yana. She smile.

"Sasha you're here"

I pout and nod. Why I feel she's a bit evade to me. "Why you're not texting me?" Tanong ko at dumaan para makaupo, Wala pa si Lyka.

Tinanggal niya ang earphone sa tenga. "Sorry I changed my number and I forgot to asked you what's your number" she said smiling and lean over me.
