Kumain kame ng streetfoods ni Luke pagka labas sa green forest ang dami palang tumatambay dito akala ko wala masyado.
"Hey! You're occupied again." natatawa niyang sabi.
"Do you have a girlfriend?" bigla kong tanong at nasamid siya.
"Wow hah, kung umasta parang wala eh mukhang chickboy ka nga eh." sabi ko.
"Mukha lang noh! Pero pag gusto mong maging girlfriend ko payag ako." sabi niya at kinindatan ako.
"Wag fillers." sabi ko.
Nagpatuloy kame sa pagkain ng streetfoods na halong kulitan at asaran not bad he's quite cool to be with. I never let a guy accompanied me to go out alone usually I'm with Andy and Denver and sometimes our groupmates but alone with a guy never not until I met Luke we have a rough start but I think we make it smooth as we get to know each other. Get to know each other not to fall inlove with him.
"Gab"
"Yes"
"Is your parents the reason why you left your house?"
Di ako nakasagot agad kanina pa kame magkasama pero ni minsan hindi sumagi sa isip ko na tanungin niya ako tungkol sa pag aya ko sa kanya.
"Oh don't get me wrong, i-i just want to know what if something happen---."
"Its okay" I said.
"And yes they are the reason, they were separated two weeks ago." Pahabol ko.
"Oh sorry about that." he said.
"Its okay."
"By the way, ahm if you allow me to"
hinihintay ko yung karugtong ng sasabihin niya na para bang mahirap sabihin ang gusto niya.
"To what?"
"To court you?" sabi niya.
Nagtaman ang mata namin biglang nag iba ang pakiramdaman ko hindi ko maintindhan kung ano tong nararamdaman ko na parang sasabog ang bilis ng t***k ng puso ko.
No! This can't be Gabbi they will just hurt you like what your parents. Your relationship to him will never lasts and...
"Ahm, its okay if you'll reject it."
Gusto kong sapakin yung bunganga ko na may sarililing pag iisip.
"Yes." agap ko.
"H-hah? you m-mean?" parang hindi siya makapaniwalang sasabihin ko yun.
"I mean yes you can court me but the--- you know. But let me get to know you better." Pag-explain ko.
I don't know what they do if they court a girl I never had a experience and this is my first time wala eh may trust issues ako eh.
"Okay thanks for the assurance." sabi niya.
"Ihatid na kita baka pagalitan ka na."
Speaking of I don't want to go home yet but I don't want to let my dad worried about what did I do earlier i want to explain to him everything.
"Thanks for the ride Luke."
"Goodnight Gabbi." pahabol niya.
I just smile at him. I can feel dad is sitting on a sofa even if it is dimmed I know he waited for me to come home.
"Where have you've been?" tanong niya.
I was right!
"Nag pahangin lang." sagot ko.
"Darling I'm your father I know when you are telling the truth and when is not."
"Fine! I'm with Luke he's a friend."
"He?"
"Dad please, wag ngayon."
"Your Lola's and Lolo's and your mom left early, they understand you anak they will go back here as soon as you are ready to talk to them."
"Am I not dad?"
"Yes, you'll end up shouting your mother I cannot blame you anak but please show respect to her shes still your mother after all." Dad explain.
Maaga akong umalis dahil gusto ni Luke na magkasama kame bago mag simula ang laro nila ng basketball he is a Criminology student and we are in same year level fourth year.
"Good morning." sabi niya at sinalubong ako ng ngiti.
"How are you last night?" he asked.
"Me and dad talked about what happened last night." I simply answer.
"How about you? Did your parents get mad on you?"
"Not at all, I don't have a mother when I came home tita rose and dad are happy so they never get mad." He said.
"Is she will going to be your stepmom?"
"I think so."
I hope dad will find a girl who will love him and accept us as her family and treasure us.
Luke needs to go in the court right away because they will have a trial before the game starts.
"Hey you! smiling face girl." Pang aasar ni Andy.
"Bawal ba?" Sabi ko.
"I smell something fishy."
"Excuse me! I didn't ate any fish earlier."
"Tanga! What I mean is you are keeping secrets to me and i can see it."
"Wala noh!"
"Really? And who is this coming here with a big smile?"
Tiningnan ko kung saan nakatingin si andy I saw Luke with a big smile looking at me my heart immediately pump faster and all heat in my body comes up to my cheeks.
"Hi, milk tea for you." he said and gave me the milk tea.
"Thank you, how's the game?"
"Its find we won."
"Congrats."
God if he is the one that makes my trust issues to guy fade away. why not right? But I'm still thinking he makes me happy and I feel somewhat sad in no reasons.
"Ehem!"
"You know her right?"tanong ko kay Luke.
"Yes, she's Andy."
Nagkwe-kwentuhan kami ng kung ano ano ng may masamang hanging dumaan.
"Look at the lovers." Pang aasar ni Claudia.
I rolled my eyes to her. "Akala mo king sinong santa eh isang malandi naman."sabi niya.
"How dare you say that I should be the one to tell you that b***h!"
"Gabbi!" Luke shouted and that makes me stop.
"Wag mo nang patulan." sabi niya.
"Who are you to say that? I will defend myself in a way I want and I can." sabi ko.
"Zari, please let us go." Andy.
"No! This girl should know that I'm not a flirt! Not even you!" Tinuro ko mga alagad ni Claudia.
"And you." Tinuro ko mismo sa mukha si Claudia.
Tinapon ko sa lupa ang milk tea na bigay I am really pissed right now he even allowed Claudia to say that onmy face. How dare he shouted at me f****d you all!!
"ZARI STOP!" sigaw ni Andy na hingal na hingal.
"What!!" Iritado kong sabi.
"Sorry naman, nakalayo na tayo balak mo bang puntahan ang dulo ng eskwelahang ito?" sarkastikong sabi niya.
"Arrrghh! I hate them all!!"
"Zari, wag lahatin baka di lang siya makapaniwala na ganon kalaki ang epekto non sayo."
"Even though, no one shouted me that way except if my dad is mad at me."
Nagpahangin lang muna kami ni andy tutal wala naman ding masyadong klase kasi yung iba nanonood ng basketball game sa court. So, maybe I should go home and let me have a peace of mine.
Beep.
Luke
Where are you?
Lets talk please.
Me:
Acasia tree.
Hindi ko alam bakit napapa sagot ako agad sa mgatext niya di naman ako mahilig mag text dati ah.
"Ahm, andy thanks for accompany me here. Were going to talk you can go home now."
Biglang gumuhit ang ngiti sa mganlbi niys. Na parang iniisip niya na may relasyon kaming dalawa.
"We're not in a relationship." Agap ko.
"OKAY, I should call my driver."
Andy is not just a simple student in FEU she is the heirs of the largest mall in manila and her parents owns a big company in Europe. Definetely she is not just a student.
"Gab."
Nilingon ko yung lalakeng nagsalita I knew that voice the day we've met and talked I analyzed everything about him Physicaly.
"I'm sorry if I had to shout at your friend she's getting on my nerve and----"
Diko natapos ang sinasabi ko ng bigla niyang inilapit and mukha niya sa mukha ko ilang dangkal na lang ang layo namin I secretly swallowed my saliva what the heck Luke!! Nakatingin pa rin kami sa isa't-isa ng una siyang bumitaw.
"Sorry, I just don't want us getting mad to each other." Sabi niya at tumingin ng malayo.
"I'm sorry too about what happen."
He just stare at me about 5seconds and she just walked fast and grab my waist everything got slowmo when he do that he hugged me tight and he is saying something I don't understand, that doesn't matter at all.
I think I'm falling to Luke Buenafe.
