Love Disaster

Chapter 13 | Online Dating

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••Online Dating

So yeah it has been a week since nung tinulungan ko si Topp sa cake, I am at my house right now with my mom and brother. Binigyan ako ng day-off ni Ma'am Julia for the weekend. So it is a Saturday night and yung dinner namin is Crispy Pata galing sa work ni Diego kasi sabi ng boss niya sa kanya, quote "Diego you are the best employee I ever had, baka ikaw yung sumunod na manager saakin" end quote. I mean is that even possible na maging manager yung estudyante?

So anyways after dinner umakyat ako at syempre nagsnapchat. So nagvieview lang ako ng snap until napunta na kay Topp, nakalagay dun picture nila ni Becca in a FUCKING HOTEL ROOM! Like warapak?!

And I don't even want to know kung anong gagawin nila dun. Spare me the details please.

I turned off my phone and bumalik saakin yung advice ni Estella nung kinwento ko sa kanya na may iba si Topp. Siya din nagulat coz' she knows Becca. Nagulat din siya na magkasama sila dahil sa mall incident.

Anyway, sinabihan ako ni Estella na magtry ng online dating, nung una kong rinig, I didn't like the idea pero ngayon I am kind of reconsidering.

So here I am sitting in front of my closed laptop thinking whether should I do it or not. Definitely gonna try it.

I made my account and then....Done!

So mayroon akong nakamatch, and I support LGBT but I am definitely not a lesbian, so....next.

Ok seriously? all my matches are not that great.

Until I reached one, the name is...

"Diego Gonzales." I whispered then angrily shout, "Diego!"

I heard him laughing at the other room and I rolled my eyes, definitely NOT my type.

After I swiped, I got a kind of a decent one the name is:

"Trevor Alonzo."

I viewed his picture and he was wearing a cap that is backwards, a black shirt, black pants, black boots. It's obvious he loves black, he is lean, well kind of handsome.

I took a deep breath and pressed the 'interact' button.

Alexa: Hi Trevor!
Trevor: Hi, so alam ko na halos lahat ng info about ourselves is nasa description na but I want to dig deeper, you know?
Alexa: Yeah sure, you ask a question ako sagot.
Trevor: Sige, name me your fove favorite books :)
Alexa: Hmm....
Alexa: Anatomy of A Misfit, The Fault in Our Stars, Everything, Everything.
Alexa: That's all of it.
Trevor: is there a person in the world who hates The Fault in Our Stars?
Alexa: Probably not, why? Do you hate it?
Trevor: I am a delinquent but seriously?! I love that book!
Alexa: Hahaha, you sure your straight?
Trevor: Woah, Lex we just met and you are being seriously rude to me. Hahaha
Alexa: Hahaha, I gotta go for awhile, maybe talk later?
Trevor: Sure
Alexa: Sige

Trevor is now offline...

I closed the laptop, and suppressed a smile, I ran downstairs and joined my mom watching a series. She could tell that I was happy, and I kind of am?

But! don't get me wrong, I am still thinking about Topp, and that no good Becca. Seriously?! A hotel?!

After dinner I ran upstairs, and chatted with Trevor, the night ended softly.

Sunday 2:21 PM

Alexa: Ok first of all, the movie "The Giver" is obviously copied from, The Divergent Series.
Trevor: Lex uhm no, why use the word copy if you could use the word inspired
Alexa: It is A COPY
Trevor: The book of "The Giver" was release on the 90s while Divergent Book series were released at some point in 21st century
Alexa: Hm. Never thought of that so I guess Divergent was the one that was inspired.
Trevor: Seriously now you are using the word inspired
Alexa: Hahaha yes ganyan talaga ako
Trevor: So...
Trevor: Kailan mo gusto magkita? Cause apparently you are cool
Alexa: Wednesday gusto mo?
Trevor: Sounds great
Alexa: Anyway, baket puro one-color suot mo?

The conversation went for hours, till I eat and stuff. It is fun talking to him, pero is that really his true personality? Kasi si Jack akala ko ayos, yun pala hindi. Don't want to make the same mistake again.
