"AMIE."
LAHAT KAMI NAGULAT SA unannounced visit nya dito sa bahay. Papaano nya nalaman na nandito na ako sa bahay? "I'm sorry, who are you?" Tanong ni Zoe. "I'm sorry, WHO are YOU?" Amie said, copying Zoe pero mas madiin ang "who" at "you" nya, like she's questioning kung sino si Zoe sa buhay namin at anong ginagawa nya dito.
Well, i can't blame her. Mas matagal na naming kilala si Amie kaysa kay Zoe.
Maybe na-offend lang si Amie, kaya ganon.
Besides, five years na rin kaming hindi nagkikita ni Amie.
After the break up between Jea and i, hindi na rin sya nagparamdam due to busy rin sya sa work nya.
Well, nag c-call and text pa rin naman kami kaso madalang since sa ibang bansa na rin sya nakatira.
Hindi ko alam kung bakit sya nandito at anong ginagawa nya dito.
Maybe business? Or baka dahil kay Alex?
Mama and papa hugged and kissed Amie on her cheek.
Amie also hugged me pero gulat na gulat pa rin sya for what had happen to me.
"Grabe, totoo pala talaga 'yung sa news 'noh? Akala ko kemerot nyo lang." Saad nya pa.
"Kemerot? Natutunan mo nanaman kay Alex 'yan." Biro ko pa sakanya.
"Halina kayo sa loob at luma-lamig na ang lunch." Nakita kong tinarayan ni Amie si Zoe. "Ako na." Saad ni Amie tapos sya na 'yung nag-tulak sa'kin.
"Gosh, i missed you so much Jane! As much as gusto kitang yakapin ulit ngayon, hindi pwede dahil nag tutulak ako sa'yo." She chuckled afterwards, so i did too.
"Ilang taon na nga ba tayong hindi nagkikita in person? 3 years?"
"Five years." I said, correcting her.
"Whoa." Maski sya hindi rin maka-paniwala na five years na kaming hindi nagkikita eh.
Nang makarating na kami sa dining table, umupo na rin sya pero sa tabi ko.
"So, Amie Till, why are you here?" Tanong ko sakanya. "Bakit, ayaw mo ba?" Pilosopo nyang sagot sa'kin habang nagsa-sandok sya ng kanin at ulam.
"Just answer my question!" Naka-ngiti kong sabi.
"Because of you!"
"Because of me? Ngayon ka lang pumunta?"
"Yes. Kasi alam ko namang wala ring kwenta kung pupunta akong in coma ka pa." Sabagay, may point.
Lahat kami nag enjoy dahil sobrang daldal pa rin ni Amie like before.
Kim also introduced herself to Amie.
Pero ramdam ko 'yung tension between Zoe and Amie.
Nararamdaman ko na parang may galit at poot syang nararamdaman kay Zoe. Ewan ko, maybe dahil kanina parang rude 'yung pagta-tanong ni Zoe sakanya nung nasa gate pa lang kami?
Well, hindi naman kasi kilala ni Zoe si Amie so i think normal reaction lang 'yun for her and itong si Amie, well, na-offend.
"Anyways, if you don'y mind me asking, where's Janella?" Tanong ni Amie na nakapag-patahimik sa buong dining area.
"Iha, we don'
After naming kumain, pumunta muna kaming dalawa ni Amie sa sala habang sina mama, Kim at Zoe nasa kusina.
Nagli-ligpit.
Si papa naman, bumibili ng alak sa store since wala na akong stock dito. Puro wine.
Celebration daw ng pagdating ni Amie at recovery ko.
