"Rina?" i hear a small knocks outside my room, it's obviously mom
Kakagising ko lang but until now hindi parin magaan ang pakiramdam ko, i really hate it kapag nahahawakan ako ng strangers and that's because i have a haphephobia, or should i say i got scared when someone touched me especially kapag hindi ko kilala.
"Just like, Ms. Claudia said..pwede ka naman munang huwag pumasok" I just sigh then look at mom who's standing infront of me now, she looks worried.
Umiling lang ako at nakangiting tumingin sakaniya "no, mom..okay na 'ko"
Nagulat ako sa bigla niyang pagtabi sa akin sa kama na nakaupo "you said yesterday na hinawakan ka ng guy na 'yon, right?" she said reassuring, i nodded quickly
"pero anak, 'diba Mr. Roj said nung last na visit natin sakaniya ay pwede kang himatayin or may mangyaring masama sa 'yo?" Now, i get her point.
Eversince kase, when someone accidentally touched me bigla nalang akong hihimatayin o 'di kaya ay magkakaroon ng panic attack but yesterday, it was the first time na hindi ako nakaramdam ng panic. I admit that i was so scared kahapon pero iba e, natulala lang ako. I wonder why?
"I get your point mom, and now i'm wondering.." sabay kaming nanahimik ni mom, tila nag-iisip tungkol sa bagay na 'yon.
"well..that's good, nalalabanan mo na 'yong phobia mo. I'm happy for you, anak!" mom reluctantly said after a long silence
I just smiled to her, maybe i get used to it now.
Mag-isa nalang ako sa kwarto dahil may aasikasuhin pa raw si mom, i am fixing myself now para pumasok sa opisina. I heard my phone beep, inabot ko 'yon at nakatanggap ako ng message galing kay Luna and Minty
I open first 'yung message ni Luna
From: Ning
Hey, i heard from tita na may nangyari raw sa 'yo? punta ako later diyan. mwaps!
Kaagad akong napangiti sa message niya at hinayaan ko nalang 'yon, she's coming here later, that's enough for me.
From: Grrr
hi. Hope you're okay now and mom asking if papasok kaba?
Magtatype na sana ako ng irereply sakaniya but her new message pop up, i read it immediately.
From: Grrr
It's fine with me if u can't show up now, just rest. Lol.
What's that lol word? marunong din pala siya niyan, i can't stand but to laugh. She's kinda funny.
And also, concern citizen din pala siya?
wow Minty. Now i have the urge to know more about you.
The first thing that i know about her already is, she has plenty of flannel or plaid shirts. Ilan pa kayang ganun niya ang mapapahiram sa 'kin? i already have her two different color of it.
Should i give it back to her? maybe not, not now.
Mabilis akong nagtype ng isasagot sakaniya but later on i decided not to message her back
Mabilis akong nakarating sa company at marami nang empleyado ang nasa loob, naagaw naman agad ng atensyon ko ang mga pinag-uusapan nila.
"That girl is so lucky, sana ako nalang 'yung kinuhang secretary ni Ms. Claudia. Magtatalon ako sa tuwa" said the girl who's standing malapit sa tatlong kasama niya
"Nako 'te, hindi bagay!" sagot ng lalaki at nagsitawanan naman ang dalawang kasama pa nila na babae, tinignan ko naman ang reaction ng babaeng nagsalita kanina. Her brows furrowed
