"Who gave that?" hinawakan ni Vera ang kwintas na ibinigay ni Evo. nag iwas naman agad ako ng tingin.
"From a friend.." mahinang sagot ko. kumunot naman ang noo nito.
"What a thoughtful friend." she said. hindi naman naalis ang mapanuri nitong mata habang nakatitig sa necklace kaya hinawakan ko iyon.
Nasa loob na kami ng suit ngayon at magpapahinga na. it's already 2 am at pagod na rin kami and now we're preparing for a sleep.
"Was it a boy?" tanong nitong muli. hindi ko alam kung ano ang isasagot ko kaya hindi ako halos makatingin dito.
"Why don't you ask specific name, where it came from?" natatawang singit ni Eri habang naghuhubad ng heels.
"From Evo.." mahinang sagot ko. nagkatinginan naman ito at parehong napangisi.
"Alfiera naman pala kasi." may bahid na pang-aasar na saad ni Vera.
That night I can't help but think about what happened. I suddenly felt guilty for Evo, without clearing what suppose to be my purpose. I admit it, I love him but I couldn't tell it in front of him. seems like I was just using him to surpass the situation I've been in.
Napahawak nalang ako sa pendant ng necklace at napapikit. I'm sorry, I have to do this.
Twelve noon when we decided to go downstairs for our lunch. halos kagigising lang namin dahil late na kami nakatulog. I'm just wearing a bathrobe and my underwear inside. kaliligo ko lang at pinababa na kami. nauna ang mga parents namin dahil maaga pa ang pasok nila.
"Saan kayo natulog?" tanong Eri sa mga pinsan ko na mukhang kagigising lang din.
"Sa suite malamang." sarkastikong sagot ni Aero.
They started their arguments again. hindi ko na napansin ang mga iyon nang mag vibrate ng phone ko kaya tiningnan ko kaagad iyon.
Unknown number;
Good morning, still asleep?
My reply;
Good morning, eating our breakfast.
Unknown number;
Alright, we have practice with the band.
My reply;
You guys have gig?
Ibinaba ko muna ang phone ko nang mapansing nakatingin si Vera saakin. sinimulan ko ng sumubo sa breakfast na nakalagay sa pinggan ko at pasimpleng nakigulo sa mga pinsan.
"Next week tayo magba-batangas?" tanong ni Eri sa gitna ng bangayan nila Aero.
"Oo, patapos na ba ang exam niyo Priore?" seryong tanong ni Cael kay priore na tahimik na nagkakape.
"Oo. magpa reserve na kayo ng tutuluyan don." sagot nito.
"Yes! kuya which beach are we going to?" excited na tanong ni Vera.
"Calatagan tayo." Aero suggested. sumangayon din ang iba kaya mukhang doon nalang kami.
Vera and Eri searched about the place at mukhang maganda nga roon kaya mas na-excite lang din kami.
"Parati kasi 'yan si Aero sa batangas, may binabalikbalikan." saad ni Xenon.
"Oo si Veena." saad naman ni Flynn.
"Veena Gomez? really the model?" tanong ni Eri na parang di pa makapaniwala.
"Fake news." sagot ni Aero.
