"Maaga pala ah?!" Mataray kong sabi kay Patrick pagdating niya. Usapan kasi namen na sabay mag-breakfast, that's why I went to school earlier than usual. At etong magaling kong kaibigan woke up late, kaya ayan, I waited for almost an hour.

I'm sooooooo hungry!

"Sorry na, 'te! I swear, I didn't hear my alarm go off!"

"Lame. Try that excuse next time! At dahil diyan, libre mo! Gutom na gutom na ko. Adik ka!" I crossed my arm to his, and pulled him to the university cafe.

As expected, wala pa masyadong tao. We sat at our usual spot before we ordered.

"Te, can you order for me? Please!!! I'm so antok pa talaga. Wala pa kong energy magbitbit ng pagkain." At ang baklang 'to, inutusan pa talaga ako.

"Ang arte mo talaga! Pinag-antay mo na nga ako, ako pa oorder?" I complained.

"Sige na. You love me naman diba? You can order whatever you want. My treat!"

"Treat mo talaga! Pagkatapos mo akong gutumin sa pag-antay. Sige na, wala naman akong choice." I rolled my eyes in defeat.

"Yey! Love you!" He squealed and gave his orders.

"Yeah, yeah. Bakla ka!" I grabbed the cash and then walked to the bar.

I was about to reach the counter when someone cut me. At kapag sinuswerte ka nga naman.

"Hey! Can you please go back in the line? Nauna ako dito eh." I said calmly. Surprisingly.

"Umm, I got here first. Can't you see?!" He replied. May saltik din talaga 'tong taong 'to eh, no?

"No. What I saw is you cut the line! Elijah please, gutom na ko. Can you please let me go first and annoy me later?" I begged. Nagrerebolusyon na yung mga alaga ko!

"Nope," he shook his head. "I got here first, and gutom na din ako. So, no can do."

"Fine! Hurry then! Baka ikaw kainin ko diyan!" Okay, that came out wrong. Shet.

"Oohh. Aggressive, I like that. But I have to pass. I need to eat first. Maybe later." His lips tugged up and then winked.

I scoffed. Leche talaga 'tong gunggong na 'to!

After 15 minutes—and yes, inorasan ko talaga ang hinayupak— naka-order na din ako. Sa wakas!

"Tagal!" Pat said while I handed him his food. "Wala naman masyadong tao ah?!"

"E pano, yung walang hiyang Elijah na yun, ang tagal umorder! Ang sarap tirisin!" Nanggigigil kong sagot. I took my seat, trying my best to calm down.
