“One, Two, Three…”
“Four, Five, Six…”
“Aliyah, will you stop?”
Napalingon ako sa nagsalita. It was Mira glaring at Aliyah.
Napatingin ako kay Aliyah na nakanguso habang pinipindot ang ballpen. She always counted whenever she can't think of any scene.
“God! Pigang-piga na ang creative juices ko,” ani Aliyah.
I rolled my eyes while listening to her rants. Napamasahe ako ng ulo matapos maramdaman ang pagkirot nito. I still have hangover from last night.
Ngunit sa tuwing maalala ang mga binitawan niyang salita kagabi ay hindi ko mapigilan ang mapangiti. She was basically letting me enter her world.
“I need to go somewhere, kitakits nalang.”
Napatingin kaming lahat kay Aliyah nang mabilis itong tumayo bitbit ang kaniyang bag. I stared at her until she was out of my sight. Mabilis kong inayos ang aking gamit at walang pasabing umalis kahit rinig ko ang pagtawag nila sa akin.
I hop inside my car and grabbed my phone and texted Kristana. I asked her where she's meeting Aliyah and she quickly gave me the address. Inantay ko pang makaalis nh tuluyan ang sasakyan ni Aliyah bago sumunod sa nasabing address.
I was humming while driving. Habang nagmamaneho ay sinisigurado kong hindi mawawala sa aking paningin si Aliyah. She was driving fast and keep overtaking with every car.
“Why is she in a hurry?” tanong ko sa aking sarili at mas binilisan ang pagmamaneho.
Nang tumigil ang kaniyang sasakyan ay pinarada ko rin ang aking sasakyan ilang metro ang layo sa kaniya. I turn off the engine and lean on the steering wheel while watching her. Lumabas siya sa kaniyang sasakyan at nakapamewang na nagtipa sa kaniyang cellphone.
Ilang minuto lamang ay nakita kong lumabas kung saan si Kristana, mugto ang mata at magulo ang buhok. Aliyah suddenly slapped Kristana that made her almost fell. Kita ko ang galit sa parehas nilang mata.
Mula sa aking pwesto, kita ko ang pagsisigawan nila. Mas lalong tumataas ang tensyon sa pagitan nila. I smirked when I saw Aliyah raised her hand and tried to slapped Kristana but she was too quick and stopped her. Sinampal ni Kristana ang mukha ni Aliyah.
“Ooh, what the fuck?” bulong ko habang tatawa-tawang pinanonood sila.
Kinuha ko ang aking cellphone at kinuhaan sila ng iilang litrato. I smirked when my camera caught Aliyah grabbing Kristana’s hair. Aliyah suddenly distanced her self to Kristana when she smiled and murmured something.
Naging mahinahon ang kanilang mga itsura at nang tumalikod na si Aliyah ay umalis na rin si Kristana. When they both was out of my sight I drove away and went into a bar.
I park my car and grabbed my things. Pinatay ko ang makina ng sasakyan at tinali ang buhok. Kumuha rin ako ng salamin upang tignan ang aking istura. I looked good.
I was about to leave my car when I saw Aliyah parked her car. I leaned on my seat and watched her while sitting on the hood of her car.
“Tangina…” bulong ko matapos makitang lumabas mula sa bar si Kleo.
He was wearing a white shirt, black pants, black shoes and black cap. Ngunit kahit ganoon ang itsura niya ay sigurado akong siya iyon. Kinuha ko ang aking cellphone at kinuhaan sila ng litrato.
I was tapping my fingers on the steering wheel while watching them. I can't help but to smile when I saw Aliyah tried to kiss Kleo but he was too quick to avoid.
