A Love To Remember

Chapter 35: Stalking Game

Chiara

Hanggang ngayon, 'di pa rin mawala sa isipan ko ang mga narinig kanina. Why am I feeling this way? Seriously, Chia? Why are you even making a big deal about things? Ugh, forget it.

Paulit-ulit akong umiling as I gently slap myself at ngumiti ng pilit, I shouldn't meddle with other people's business, paki ko sa buhay nila? May paki ba sila sa' kin? Wala naman, 'di ba? So why should I give a fuck about them anyway?

Sinimulan ko ng maglakad palabas ng comfort room at halos mapa-sigaw ako sa gulat when Kallie suddenly barged in kaya nagka-bunguan kami.

"You scared me!" wika ko habang nakahawak sa puso ko, I was startled! I should stop drinking caffeine, nagiging nerbyosa na talaga ako!

"Sorry, it's not my intention! I was hoping na nandito ka and thankfully, you are!" sambit niya, I raised an eyebrow as I crossed my arms. Nagtatampo pa rin ako sa kanya for calling me selfish earlier.

"And sorry, okay? Hindi ko naman alam na masasaktan ka sa sinabi ko...I'm sorry, please forgive me Chia! Pretty please!" pahabol pa niya, gusto kong sabihin na kaya ako nasaktan kasi truth hurts nga diba but of course, I won't admit that fact! Hindi ko lulunukin ang pride ko ng gano'n kadali lang! It's expensive, you know?

"That's the first time you called me selfish so nagtatampo talaga ako," I said then paused, "But.. you're Kallie. Matitiis ba kita?" dagdag ko pa making her smile as she immediately clung into my arms.

"Ayieeh! Thanks Chia, ang sweet mo! Sabi na nga ba, 'di mo ako matitiis eh!" she beamed, napailing na lang ako as the both of us made our way outside the comfort room.

"More like I have no choice!" bulong ko pero 'di niya ata iyon narinig, mabuti nga..

"Pero alam mo, nakita ko kanina ang Tita mo! What's her name nga? Iyong kapatid ng Mommy mo?" pagkwento niya making me stop from walking at since nakakapit siya sakin, napatigil rin siya.

"Si Tita Analaine?" I asked, unsure. tumango naman siya. So nakita niya rin si Tita? That means, tama nga ako. Si Tita nga talaga iyong narinig kong may kausap sa CR.

"Yup! Oo nga pala, her name's Analaine! I'm not good at remembering names but anyway, she's really pretty 'no?" aniya, I just nodded my head in agreement.

Now that I remembered it, my curiosity once again boost up to it's maximum level! Ngayon, something's pushing me to know more about Tita's business.

"Saan mo siya nakita Kall?" tanong ko, nag-isip naman si Kallie as she pointed her fingers at the scent shop 'di kalayuan sa direksyon namin ngayon.

"Scented Fragrance. Pumasok kasi ako kanina d'yan then I saw her, I'm not sure though kun--- hey!" 'di ko na pinatapos si Kallie sa pagsasalita as I immediately pulled her papunta sa shop na itinuro niya.

There's something really fishy about Tita Analaine and I'm, going to find it out.

We went inside as my eyes roam around the perimeter, bingo! There she is, talking to the cashier, more like nagbabayad siya ng mga pinamili niya.

"Dun tayo!" I said softly at hinila si Kallie sa medyo mataong part ng shop na 'to, "Lets act like we're looking for some perfume to buy, go!" utos ko but Kallie didn't move, nakatingin lang siya sa' kin habang nakakunot ang noo niya.

"What do you think you're doing, Chiara Isabel? Ba't tayo nagtatago? Why don't you just show yourself to your Tita?" sunod-sunod niyang tanong, napakamot na lang ako sa batok ko because of frustration.

"Ganito kasi iyan Kall, something is really fishy about Tita Analaine and we're going to find it out! Basta I'll explain it to you once we finish stalking her, okay?" naguguluhan man, tumango lang si Kallie sa sinabi ko as the both of us did what I told her to do earlier.
