Started with the Wrong Impression

Chapter 25: Christmas Shopping.

⛄❄🎄🎁

        

          They are back in Manila to spend the remaining days of their Christmas vacation with their families.

        And it seems na may kanya-kanya silang pinagkakaabalahan bago sumapit ang pasko.

       "Seriously dude?!? Mamimili ka ng pang-regalo? That's new huh. And i guess i know the reason." Nakangising sabi ni Mark.

     "And i guess it's a wrong decision to ask you to go with me today." Edward.

     "Hahaha! But you dont have a choice right?" Mark.

     "Tsk!" Yun nalang ang naging reaksyon ni Edward. Dahil tama si Mark. Wala syang choice kundi si Mark ang ayain sa mall kesa naman sina Criz at Axel at Yong. Dahil hindi sya sigurado kung mapipigilan ng tatlo na yon ang mga bibig nila. Baka ma-spill pa ang balak nya.

      "So, where to begin, dude?" Tanong ni Mark sa kaibigan.

     "Actually i dont have an idea what to buy. That's why i ask you to come with me. Any suggestion?" Edward ask habang tumitingin sa mga stall sa loob ng mall.

      "Hmmmm.... Well, Kisses already had all materials things she needed or want, i guess? But knowing her being innocent, pure and simple..... I think she'll  be happy to receive anything coming from a friend?" Mark.

     "Oh. Thanks dude. That's a big help." Sarcastic na sabi ni Edward.

     "What? Im just stating a fact dude." Mark.

     "And what's that anything, huh?" Edward.

     "You can buy her a book, a bag, shoes, or this one?" Mark said sabay turo sa couple shirt na nakadisplay sa isang tindahan ng mga damit.

      "Mark, we are not a couple. Not yet." Edward said na ibinulong lang ang huling sinabi.

     "Woah! So, it means you are planning to court her, huh." Mark.

     "Will just  help me, Mark?" Edward.

      "Haha! Fine. Let's look around first. Baka makakita tayo ng something interesting to buy habang naglilibot tayo." Mark.

     "Fine." Edward.

       At sa wakas pagkatapos ng halos isang oras na paglilibot  nakakita rin ang dalawa ng pang-regalo ni Edward sa dalaga.

     "Mas nauna pa nating nabilhan ng regalo yung mga kolokoy bago tayo nakakita ng pwedeng iregalo kay Kisses." Mark said na sumalampak sa couch ng coffee shop na pinasukan nila ni Edward.

      "This is so tiring dude." Reklamo din ni Edward na sumimsim sa inorder na smoothie.

    "Yeah right. Shopping is really not  our thing. I can't get it why girls are so addicted with it." Mark.

     "It's a girl thing i guess. Do you really think Kisses would like it?" Edward ask while looking at the gift box infront of him.

     "She'll like it, dude. Dont worry." Mark.

      "I hope so." Edward.

      "Nabili mo na ba lahat ng nasa listahan mo, bes?" Sabay na napalingon ang magkaibigan ng marinig ang pamilyar na boses na yon. It's Mai2x na kasunod si Kisses na nakayuko dahil abala ito sa pagkalkal sa mga pinamili nito. Nasa kabilang mesa ang dalawa malapit sa kinauupuan ng dalawa.

      "May nakalimutan yata ako. Pero mamaya nalang siguro bago tayo umuwi. Pagod na ko eh." Kisses said na sumandal sa upuan.

     Nagkatinginan sina Mark at Edward.
