I really felt something's not good will happen. Kahapon pa ito nung inaya ako sumama ni Clark sa outing daw nila.
"If I know kasama sya sa outing"
Ugh! Bkit kasi hindi ko nalang pinilit na tumanggi? I know that our path will cross but not this very soon.
"Clark! Masasakal talaga kita kapag nalaman kong kasama sya sa outing na yan"
Langya! Kinakabahan ako na ewan dito. Hindi ko alam kung ano ba talaga yung nararamdamdaman ko. Pagulong-gulong ako sa kama ko habang nilalamukos ko buhok ko. Can somebody please help me? Hoo! 2 days from now ay pupunta na kami sa Limasawa and that's too far away from Manila.
Nakabusangot akong bumaba papuntang sala nang maabutan ako ni kuya kaya tinanong nya ako kung ano daw problema ko.
"Si Clark kasi kuya inaya ako sumama sa bakasyan daw nila sa Limasawa. Tan lejos de Manila!"
"So? Ano naman kung malayo yun sa Manila? Don't you want to have fun kasama mga kaibigan mo?"
Of course gusto ko. Pero what if kasama yung si.. sya? The heck! Pwede ko ba isama si John? Yung kaibigan ko from Spain na may dugong pinoy? I think Trixcia will be there too. My girl best friend.
"Nevermind about me kuya. Naninibago lang siguro ako kaya ganito ako kumilos. Where's ate nga pala?"
"Umalis kasama mga kaibigan nya ngayon lang. Wag mo na hanapin yun masyado syang maingay"
Knowing you kuya, kunwari ka lang walang pake kay ate Aica pero the truth is you care for her. Sus!
"Oo nga pala Shami, John texted me and he said that he'll be staying here for 2 weeks then babalik ulit sya sa Spain. If you want isama mo narin sya sa vacation nyo mag kakaibigan para naman hindi sya ma-bore dito"
"Uuwi sya dito bukas? Thank goodness!"
Salamat talaga may maisasama na ako sa Limasawa at hindi ako mag mumukhang bitter. Salamat talaga!
"No. Hindi sya uuwi bukas kasi paparating na sya. For sure miss ka na din nun haha"
John's my suitor slash bestfriend for 10 months now and he really is persistent to have me. While Trixcia's my 4 year best friend just like Aeiou. The truth is, I do like John and I think paunti-unti na akong nahuhulog sa kanya. Magandang simula yun para sa akin right?
But I'm taking it slowly kasi nga may puwang parin si Kye sa puso ko. I can't just force myself to love somebody else lalo na kung may mahal pa akong iba.
Maybe I need the right timing para sumabak muli sa panibagong buhay pagibig.
"Hola!"
Oh! John's here already. Wala parin talagang pagbabago sa taong 'to. I am still mesmerized by his handsomeness.
"Quedé hipnotizado por mi bella?"
Psh! So what if I am?
"Of course! You are still you and nothing's changed about you. Do I have to answer your question? Tss. What makes you go here by the way?"
I'm just being me. Blunt and honest. This is me before he knew me.
"Got exhausted from work bella. I need to refresh my mind and you know that I do really need some rest"
Sabagay, ikaw ba naman mag trabaho for 3 years straight ewan ko nalang kung hindi ka ma-drain.
Umupo sya sa sofa and place his baggage beside him.
"John you have to come with me 2 days from now. No te lo estoy preguntando. Te lo dije y no puedes hacer nada ahí"
"You are being bossy again bella and you're making me fall for you hard"
I frown at him and I blushed.
"Okay. I'll come with you wag ka lang magalit sa akin hahaha you look cute when you blush"
He winked at me and I blush once again. This guy never fails to make me feel how beautiful I am.
"S-stop it John! Me averguenzas"
I run to my room and lock the door. I heard him yell " No te estoy avergonzando. Sólo estoy diciendo la verdad"
Whatever John. Wait 'til I get over him and when that day comes, I'll make you the happiest and proud guy for pursuing and waiting for me.
But for now, I have to face my broken heart alone. I am strong and I know that I can make it without the help of anybody.
I think kaya ko na e. Maybe I thought that I can't make it kasi nga nakulong ako sa pag iisip sa kanya for 10 months nung nasa Spain kami.
Pero ngayon pakiramdam ko pawala na sya kasi unti-unti nang napapalitan ni John si Kye. Or, so I thought.
----------------
Ugh! This is the day. Our summer vacation comes at hindi ko alam kung magiging masaya ba ako or what. I really did change a lot. Dati ang payat ko tapos tampulan pa ako ng tukso pero ngayon may laman na katawan ko kahit papaano and I got the confidence to flaunt my body.
"Babi naka ready na ba gamit mo?"
Hindi ko pa pala nasasabi kay Aeiou na isasama ko si John sa vacation outing nakalimutan ko.
"Uh, yeah! I'm done. By the way Clark, isasama ko pala si John. Okay lang ba? Sabi kasi ni kuya isama ko nalang daw sya e"
"Sinong John?"
Oo nga pala! Di ko pa pala napapakilala si John sa kanya. Ano ba yan nakalimutan ko.
"Bella, who is he?"
"Good Morning to you too John. This is Aeiou Clark my best Friend, and Clark he is John my bestfriend too. Nakilala ko sya sa Spain"
I don't know if I have to add the word "suitor" nung ipakilala ko si John kay Clark pero hayaan ko nalang.
"Pare! Nice meeting you nga pala. Aalis na ba tayo?"
Nagkamayan sila at tumango naman si Clark para sabihing we are good to go.
"Good! After how many years makakapag pahinga narin ako sa wakas naman"
Natawa nalang kami ni kuya sa sinabi ni John while Clark is clueless of what is happening.
"I've been working for 3 years Clark. At ito lang ang time na nabigyan ako ng day off"
"Tagal din ng 3 years ah. Buti hindi ka kinuba kakatrabaho hahaha"
Siraulo talaga kahit kailan 'tong damuhong 'to.
"Muntikan na nga e buti hindi natuloy hahaha"
Nag tawanan kami at nag paalam narin kay kuya. Kung makapag usap sila akala mo talaga matagal na sila magkakilala samantalang ilang segundo palang naman ang lumipas.
Sumakay kami sa kotse ni Clark kung saan driver nya ang mag hahatid sa amin sa venue ng meeting place daw.
"Bro! Dederetso ba agad tayo sa airport?"
"Hindi pa. Pupunta muna tayo sa meeting place kasi doon dadalhin yung kotse na gagamitin natin papuntang airport. Malayo kasi yung airport sa lugar natin"
Oo nga pala malayo pala yung airport dito siguro mga 2-3 hours away.
"Babi, you're still the same. Hindi ka masyadong nag sasalita haha. I wonder if Trixcia will recognise you since ang laki na ng pinagbago ng katawan mo. To be honest ha? You are sexy and hot now"
"Hey! Don't say that to her!"
Sabi ni John. Actually, hindi naman namababastos si Clark masyado lang kasi syang open kaya nasasabi nya lahat ng nasa isip nya.
"Hindi nya ako binabastos John. It's his way of saying na mas gumanda ako simula nung nag Spain ako"
Yeah! Buhat ng sariling bangko Shamira? You got the nerves huh! Ang laki na talaga ng pinagbago ko. What if kasama sila? Should I act like I miss them or should I ignore them?
"Oh! Akala ko e. Sorry bro"
"Ays lang. It's 6:30am and ang oras ng flight natin is 11am actually tayo nalang hinihintay nila doon. About pala sa foods doon nalang tayo bumili sa airport okay? You can rest habang nasa biyahe tayo"
"Zy, Trix texted me and she said na dumeretso na daw tayo sa airport kasi andun na daw sila and they are waiting for us. Tayo nalang daw ang kulang e."
"Uh, ganun ba? Aga naman nila masyado. Ilan ba tayo lahat na aalis?"
"Not sure babi"
"Mukhang madami-dami din" sabi ni John habang tumatango-tango pa.
After 2 hours of travelling nakarating narin kami and guess what? I can see all of them icluding Trixcia my best friend and Him staring at me at para bang pinagaaralan nya hitsura ko. Tss!
"Here they are babi are you ready to face them? If you can't stand them you can step back and go home"
Step back? Go home? Why would I do that? As if I can back out. Kinuha na namin yung gamit namin sa kotse ni Clark and right after getting all our things lumapit na kami sa kanila.
"Hey! Who's with you Clark? Who is she? Ang ganda nya"
Tanong ni Jeremie habang nakaturo pa sa akin and I am just staring at him for 10 seconds and when he look at me I smirk at him.
"Tss! Wala kang pagbabago Jeremie babaero ka parin until now. By the way, I'm Shamira and he is John and it's so nice to meet you all again"
I can see that John is questionable of what is happening righ now. How can I forget na wala nga pala syang alam tungkol sa nakaraan ko? Argh! Dummy!
"Zyra? Ikaw na yan? Hindi nga? Ikaw na ba yung kaibigan ko? Do you still remember me? I'm Trixcia"
"Silly girl. Of course kilala ko pa best friend ko noh! Why should I forget about you?"
Yeah! I know all of them except for the new face of a girl na ngayon ko lang nakita.
"You left me 2 years ago Zymi at may utang kang kwento sa akin. Let's get going inside the airport and buy some snacks. Madami-dami kang utang na kwento sa akin"
Sabi nya habang nakakapit sa braso ko.
"I'll tell you when we get there"
