Night Life in Tokyo

Chapter 7

Chapter 7

Without even saying a word, I started preparing breakfast for Trent. Tikom ang bibig ko. Umagang-umaga ang lakas ng kabog ng dibdib ko. Naka-aircon naman ang buong silid pero pinagpapawisan ako ng malala.

Hindi 'ko sinabi 'yon. Guni-guni lang talaga 'yon.

But what the hell?! Why would I even call him like that? Nalalabi na ba ang oras ngayon sa Tokyo? Will I be deported?

Hindi rin ako naghain ng sausage ngayon because that'll look provoking. Ayokong paghinalaan na naman niya ako. And whatever happens that night, sana hindi ako ako nangabayo na parang equestrienne.

"Should I call Miss Albertyne in her room now?" I asked him as he sit on the chair. He slowly raised his head to look at me.

"No," sagot nito sa akin.

"Oh. Alright, sir," ngiwi ko pa. "She also mentioned to me that she's on a diet so I guess she won't be eating breakfast."

"Still no," paninindigan nitong sagot sa akin. Napakunot naman ang noo ko. "You won't see her because she's not there. She didn't come here last night and for your information, I ended things with her so basically I'm free from her misery."

I was a little confused sa sinabi niya. I didn't ask for more information dahil ayoko nang mapunta ang usapan namin sa nangyari kagabi. I barely remembered everything. The only thing I could remember was seeing Fredrick from the Gaspanic bar and I just go wild drinking beers. That was a mistake. I shouldn't have done that.

"Okay, sir..." I pressed my lips. "I'll leave your for a moment and the I'll go ahead and clean your room."

He just gave me a nod and then I hastily walked out of the dining area. Nagmadali rin naman akong tumungo sa kanyang kwarto to check if he's telling the truth and I was surprised that she's not around this time. And Trent just ended things with her? Bakit ngayon lang if he knew that she's been a bugger for his whole life? Hinintay niya pa ba akong dumating before he took an action? Nakakapagtaka lang but oh well, if this is gonna be my life now and then, e 'di it's a perfect situation for me!

No more Albertyne! But what would happen to her after their separation? That's where my heads at now.

When I walked in his room, hindi naman gaano'ng magulo. I just had to smoothen the comforters at ayusin ang ilang bagay na natumba sa bedside table niya. I checked his clothes on his closet at maaayos ang pagkakatupi ng mga iyon. All his formal suits are separated from the usual clothes he wears.

Kinuha ko na lamang iyong hamper sa loob ng banyo niya. It is filled with his used clothes and ready for the laundry. I checked his used clothes isa isa para mahiwalay ko ang mga colored clothes from his plain white clothes. At sa sunod na nabunot ko mula sa kailaliman ng hamper ay ang kanyang ga underwear. There are a few boxers at halos kurot lang ang pagkakahawak ko sa mga ito until I came into a crazy idea to smell it.

Ipinikit ko pa ang mata ko and then I breathe in before sniffing it. I was shocked dahil walang amoy ang mga ito. It still smells like fabric conditioner na ginamit niya for washing his labada. Hindi ko na naman inisa-isa pang amuyin dahil baka madatnan niya akong pinagnanasahan 'yong mga underwear niya.

Before I left his room, sinigurado ko munang naayos ko ang pagkakasanlansan ng mga bagay bagay. When everything is secured and done ay idinala na ko na sa laundry area ang hamper para ayusin na ang mga labada.

I washes his clothes every other day para hindi ako matambakan ng mga hinubad niyang damit. It wasn't really hard. Ginagawa ko na naman ito before. I grow up with people who helps us but it's not necessary for me dahil habang lumalaki ako, I feel left out and I only have myself para gawin ang mga bagay na gusto kong gawin.
