Hindi ko na mabilang kung ilang araw na akong hindi makatulog ng mahimbing sa kakaisip sa nangyari no'ng araw na 'yon. Two weeks have passed, it's still fresh in my memory like it just happened only yesterday.
It's still bothers me, the face of my sister I mean. The way she looked at me was all fear I can see but when I heard her voice, she was calm and defenseless but in a forced way. She didn't even scold me after that for touching her private things of her work.
I sighed in frustration. One of these days, baka frustration ang magiging dahilan ng ikakamatay ko. All these mess, makes me depressed. No I don't know if this is still called a mess. This is a mere mess, it's a major knot in our hands.
I want to know what kind of company my sister works. Noon pa man ay nagtataka na talaga ako kung anong trabaho ang tinatrabaho niya. Kapag mago-open topic ako about sa trabaho niya ay nililihis niya ang usapan. It's like, she doesn't want me to know about her work.
Napapikit ako. I can't seem to figure it out- kung anong klaseng trabaho ang tinatrabaho niya. Kahit nga location ng company ay hindi ko alam. Agad akong namulat ng may napagtanto ako.
That's right, she didn't mention any of her work. Kung ano ang ginagawa niya sa trabaho niya, kung nasaan ang location nito, kahit nga maliit na silip lang sa mga dala niyang gamit ay hindi niya rin pinapakita sakin.
And the most suspicious part, she works at night. Well, maybe she chose night shift? Possible, that's explain her outfit. Hindi ko pa siya nakikitang naka-uniform ng pangtrabaho.
"Rosella," napatingin ako sa taong tumawag sakin sa may pinto. Kinuha ko ang aking earphone sa tenga saka sinabit sa leeg. Tumayo ako at lumabas sa room. Paglabas ko ay nakita ko silang lahat, ako nalang ang hinihintay.
Sabay kaming lahat na pumunta sa caf. "Hey, you okay?" Tumango naman ako bilang sagot sa tanong niya.
"You're kinda down these days."
"Hindi ka pa nasanay sa mukha at ugali ko."
"Oh c'mon, I know you and we've been together for 10 years. Well, magiging 11 years na this July." I didn't expect she would remember the month when the two of us became close friends.
"It's still me, Kylie."
"Yeah I know." Sabay inakbayan niya ako, ngumiti nalang ako.
"What do you want guys? Kami na mago-order." Maya insisted as we arrived at the caf. Sinabi na namin kung ano ang mga orders namin at binigay ang bayad namin sa kanila.
"Wait niyo lang kami dyan," umalis na siya kasama si Mev at Paul.
Maya and Paul became our new friend. Ang bilis lang dahil kung kasama namin sila ay parang ang tagal na kaming magkaibigan dahil sobrang close naming lahat sa isa't isa.
As I said, Maya is the kind of cheerful one and Paul is somewhat cold but he's still kind to us. Not the talkative one unlike Maya. Like me, magsasalita lang siya kapag siya ang kausap. We may have seem some similarities.
Mas naging close sila sa isa't isa, while me I'm not so sure about that. I don't think they think of me as a friend like how they treat the others. Err, or maybe I'm still not used that all of us got close to each and became friends.
Anyway, mabuti nalang at si Kylie lang nakakapansin na medyo wala ako sa mood these days. Parang noon pa man ako wala palagi sa mood dahil sa mukha kong walang emosyon.
Nung dumating na silang tatlo, they started talking as they happily eating their food.
Tahimik lang akong kumakain, nakatingin sa malayo at malalim ang iniisip. I can't get it off in my mind. It left me pondering, I mean the folder which I accidentally opened without her permission. What could it be?
