It's already 2 am and I'm here sa Ground 42 with Zale. This is an underground cafe. Open sila for 24 hours.
"Are you sure you don't wanna eat?" Zale asked me for the nth time kasi kumakain siya ng New York Cheesecake.
"Ang kulit mo. I told you, iced coffee is very much fine for me." I slightly laughed dahil nga paulit ulit 'to.
He's still eating so I just looked at the stars. "How I wish I can understand constellation."
"Ang konti nga ng stars tonight. May constellation ba d'yan?" He suddenly asked.
"I don't know. What's your zodiac pala?" I asked him.
He then took another bite of his cheesecake. "Scorpio. You?"
"I'm a taurus queen."
I was sipping in my coffee when he chuckled. "I haven't dated a taurus. Queen, eh?" Hindi ko naman tinatanong kung may na-date na siya. I was just curious about his zodiac. Weird.
"You'll know soon." I told him. "Why soon? May pinapahiwatig ka?" He suddenly asked. He sound so active-minded now. Isn't he even sleepy?
I suddenly blushed because of how wrong my statement is. So I just shrugged to hide my embarrassment. What the hell, Thana.
Tumayo na siya kaya napatingin ako sa cheesecake nito na ubos na. "Alis na tayo? Saan tayo pupunta?" I asked curiously.
"Ayaw mo pa ba umuwi?" Tanong niya while looking at me intently. Bakit ang lalim niya tumingin? I feel like he's judging me!
Actually, I don't wanna go home. It's Saturday now. Wala namam akong pending na gagawin. I will just check the sales of mom's company and tapos na. Pero sa'n ako pupunta? "You can go ahead. Maybe mag roadtrip ako for a while."
"Roadtrip? Sama." The fuck? I looked at him with my amusing eyes. Bakit siya sasama, we're not even that close.
"I don't wanna go home, Thana. Wala akong gagawin sa condo ko. So wala namang masama kung sasama nalang ako sayo?" Tinaasan ako ng kilay nito.
We slowly walked sa parking since it looks like wala akong choice. Sabi niya ay iwan ko muna ang car ko sa condo ko tapos sa kotse nalang niya ako sumakay. Ang corny naman kasi magroadtrip kung magkahiwalay kami ng sasakyan 'diba?
Nang nakapark na ako ay sumakay na ako sa red Jeep Renegade niya. What a rich ass. "Sa'n tayo?" I asked him.
"Hmm, I don't know yet. I'll just drive bahala na kung saan tayo mapunta." Pinipigilan ko ang antok ko kasi nagyaya ako ng roadtrip so it's rude if matutulog ako.
We were talking about random stuff so nalaman kong wala na siyang mom. She died daw 3 years ago sa aksidente. He didn't elaborate tho. And I didn't ask since I'm thinking na baka sensitive topic 'yun for him.
