“Are you sure you’re not hungry?”, I asked Ledesma while we were walking out of the subdivision. Locsin and Valdez left to this so-called emergency of Locin. As if I have no idea where they’re really going. And this Valdez supported the excuse of Locsin. They didn’t have the second thought of leaving Ledesma behind.
“I am okay sir”, he replied. “Besides, I have no one to eat with anyway.”
“I can join you while you eat.”
“No need sir. I am not that hungry anyway.”
“Maybe you’re not. But I am. I was starving from waiting while you practice. Not to mention the long walk we had to get here.”, I said.
“I am sorry sir. I never thought you are not good at walking.”
“Actually I am. I love to walk. Exercise. I just didn’t expect that it will be this far. I’m just not properly warmed up I guess.”
Ledesma didn’t say anything.
“So, are we going to eat?”, I asked.
Ledesma replied shyly with the faintest gesture.
“Let’s go then. My treat.”
