She's my Tough Girl

Thirty Two. One - Vigan

Agatha's POV

"Who are you?"

"Hindi ako nakikipagbiruan."

"I said who the hell are you?! Anong kailangan mo?!"

Naalimpungatan ako sa boses na naririnig ko. Ang aga aga sino ba yun? Galit yung boses pero pigil.

Bumangon ako and scanned the room. No signs of Gabby. I took my phone and it's 4:15 in the morning palang. Siya ba yung may kausap?

I immediately search for her. Medyo malaki kasi tong kwarto na to and may terrace siya. Wala siya sa CR so I went to the terrace and I saw her holding her phone tightly. Wala na syang kausap.

Sino yung kausap niya sa phone?

"Gabby?"

"Ikaw pala. D-did I wake you up?"

Kakaiba. I can see uneasiness on her face and hindi siya makatingin ng diretso sa mata ko.

"Is there something wrong?" Lumapit ako sa kanya at sumandal sa grills. Mataga siyang nakatitig sakin na parang titimbangin pa yung sasabihin niya.

I narrowed my eyebrows.

"I'm not sure. I don't know."

"Really? Gabby, it's for 4 freaking 15 in the morning and I woke up because I hear you talking-no, lowkey shouting to someone over the phone then you're telling me you're not sure?"

She bit her lip. Gabby is frustrated pero saan at kanino?

"I'm your bestfriend."

May kinalikot siya sa phone niya bago binigay sakin.

The messages are not intended for me but I got chills all over my body. Sino to? He's using different numbers every message and hindi lang isa, dalawa, kundi 20 messages from unknown number.

"What the-alam ba to ni Jed?"
Umiling siya. "No. Ayokong malaman niya dahil sigurado akong mag-aalala siya."

"And you're telling me this now eh last month pa siya nag umpisa magsend ng messages? Hindi ka nagpalit ng number?"

"I intended not to. I wanna know who is it."

I comb my hair dahil hinahangin. "Probably, a stalker? Siya ba kausap mo sa phone kanina?"

She bit her nail. "Mukhang oo but I can't recognize the voice. Lalaki pero di ko kilala. I never heard of it."

"Baka nga stalker? And he says 'See u'. Don't tell me-" Ngiwi ko.

"Masama pakiramdam ko at sa tingin ko hindi ito stalker lang."

May dinukot si Gabby sa bulsa niya. Chip.

"Remember this? I'm positive may kinalaman 'to dito or iisang tao lang ang maya kagagawan nito."
