"And then what?"

Jane Aurora
"You put another layer of pasta, sauce and cheese."

Missy Cleo
"Psshh. Easy-peasy."

Jane Aurora
"Mukha mo, easy-peasy. Sana nag Youtube ka na lang."

Missy Cleo
"Ikaw na lang para live. And para hinde ka na maging sleepy."

Jane Aurora
"Conyo ka, girl,? And anyway, inaantok talaga ako eh. Hinde naman din tumatalab sa'kin ang coffee. I need some kilig sa katawan koooo, Missy. Gusto ko landiin ako!
Gusto i-date ako! Gusto ko suyuin ako!

Man behind Jane Aurora
"I'm sure you are."

Still on Facetime: Scene.
"Pota-fuck!" Gulat na sabi ni Jane. At namilog ang kanyang mga mata sa lalaking nakita sa likod nya.

"Are new you new here?"

"Um, opo."

"You're name?" tanong ng lalaki sa kanya.

"Jane. Jane Aurora Adurande po." Sagot naman nya.

"I'm Nate. Nate Ocean Dela Vega." At nilahad nya ang kanyang kamay kay Jane.

Missy in the background thru Facetime.
"Omigaaaaad may spark!" Mahinang bulong ng kaibagan ngunit nadinig pa din iyon ni Jane.

"S...Sir Dela Vega." Utal na sabi ni Jane. Sandali nga. Kailan pa ako nautal? Sa libro lang 'yun nangyayari. Ugh. Makisama ka naman dila! "Is there anything I can help you with, Sir?"

"I'm just here to pick up some documents.
Is Tita Olivia around?" Sagot naman ng binata.

"Yes, Sir. Ma'am Olivia's in her office."

Limang segundong katahimakan:
Thousand one.
Thousand two.
Thousand three.
Thousand four.
Thousand five.

Na sya namang binasag ni Nate ng bigla
biglang syang napasilip sa likod ni Jane. "May kausap ka pa?"

"Shit!" At saka lang naalala ni Jane ang kaibigan. "Erm. My friend's just asking for some recipe." Napapikit ng marahan si Jane. Hinde naman nya tinanong kung ano pinag-uusapan nyo. Meron o wala lang ang sagot!

Missy Cleo still on Facetime:
"Hi, Nate. I'm Missy. One of Jane's Bestfriends. Nice to meet you."

"Likewise." Tipid na sagot ni Nate.

"I'll go ahead. Nice to meet you as well Jane. I'll see you around." Akmang aalis na ay bigla ulit nitong hinarap si Jane.

"Ms. Adurande?"

"Yes, Sir?"

There was a ghost of a smile on his face.
"I'm sure...Kalandi-landi ka." At tuluyan lumakad palayo sa kanya.

Missy Cleo
"Babae!!!!! Mukhang hinde ka na aantukin!"

Jane Aurora
"Omygosshhh Missyyyy!! Desidido na'ko magka-jowa talaga! Have you seen his face? Shit, shit! Hinde ako makahinga. Lord, sya na lang for me, please!"

Missy Cleo
"Kalandi-landi ka naman daw pala"
Sana tinanong mo na din sya ng pinaka-mahalagang tanong eh."

Jane Aurora
"Ano naman 'yun?"

Missy Cleo
"Kung kalabel-label ka."

Jane Aurora
"Gagi ka! Ibaba ko na tawag mo. Shit shit!
Baka sabihin nakikipag-chismisan lang ako ang aga-aga."

Missy Cleo
"Gurl, toto naman."

Jane Aurora
"Shut up. Bye!"
