Napaayos ng tayo si Zircon nang makilala niya kung sino ang nagmamay-ari ng boses. He also put his hand down as he gave that person a small smile and acknowledged its presence.
"JET..." I said in a low voice
Pinasadahan ako ng tingin ni JET bago tinignan ng mariin si Zircon. Gagi, nakita niya kaya ginawa ni Zircon? Well, ano naman ngayon?
JET's wearing his uniform and he looked so clean and presentable. His hair is neat too. He kinda looks like a young pogi professor at nakasukbit ang bag niya sa isang balikat. He slowly walked towards us.
"You're here." ani Zircon.
"Happened to pass by."
Zircon laughed softly at JET's reply. Mga puno ba ang mga 'to? Ang tatangkad!
"Sinungaling." sambit ni Zircon.
Hindi siya sinagot ni JET at ipinukol nalang nito ang tingin sa'kin.
"You should be home by now."
"Uh, i-inaantay ko pa sundo ko." hindi siya nagsalita at tinignan ulit si Zircon.
"Bakit?"
"Why are you still here?" nakataas pa ang isang kilay nito nung nagtanong.
"Inaantay namin sundo niya?" tinanguan lang siya ni JET.
"You can leave now. I'll be with her."
Napakunot ang noo ko dun. Ano iyan? Bigla nalang nag-volunteer as tribute. Chaperone? Guardian?
"Pa'no kung ayoko?"
"You'll lose a face." napatawa ng malakas si Zircon sa sagot ni JET.
"Okay, chill! Ang weird mo ngayon."
Zircon laughed and looked at me as he gave me a small smile. Si JET naman ay sobrang seryoso, para siyang papatay ng tao! Mukhang tama nga ang sinabi ni Red. Hinding-hindi siya nagkakamali.
Nilahad ni JET ang kamay niya. Medyo natigilan pa si Zircon at nagtaka sa kilos ni JET pero na-realize naman niya iyon pagkatapos. Zircon handed him my laptop.
"Ingat, Aly. I'll go ahead."
Tinanguan ko siya "Hmm, bye bye."
Tinapik niya ang balikat ni JET bago kami iniwan. JET tapped Zircon back. Tinignan lang ako ni JET at tinabihan pagkatapos. Gago, dinig kaya niya yung heartbeat ko? Feeling ko ang lakas nang kabog.
"Since when have you become close?" he looked at me seriously.
Pakiramdam ko hihigupin niya kaluluwa ko sa paraan ng pagtitig niya.
"Uh, 'di naman kami close. S-sakto lang." I gave him a smile pero ganun pa rin ang reaksyon niya. Why am I even stuttering?!
"How long were you with him?"
"Um, 'di ko na namalayan oras eh."
"What did you do?"
