Chapter 9

"So, uh, what do you think?" I looked at Juliet in front of me. We were sitting on a bench in front of Law Building.

"Baka naghahallucinate ka lang, Sonya?" She laughed.

I sternly fixed my eyes on the laughing Juliet. She stopped when she noticed my stare.

"I'm serious. Inamin niya sa'kin na nagseselos daw siya."

"Hmm. I think he likes you na." She raised her brow.

Hinintay ko siyang dugtungan ang sinabi niya.

"It's either he likes you or he was just playing with you."

Ilang saglit siyang nanahimik bago nagsalitang muli. "Nagsex na ba kayo?"

Gulat akong napatingin sa kaniya. Pinamulahan ako ng mukha nang makita ko ang pagbaling ng katabi niyang highschool student.

"Lower your fucking voice," I whispered.

Napatingin ulit ako sa katabi ni Juliet, tumayo ito at naglakad palayo sa amin. I heard Juliet chuckle.

"Gaga!" I chortled.

"So ano nga? Nagsex na ba kayo?"

"Are you serious right now? Of course, no!" I rolled my eyes at her. "'Wag mo kong igaya sa'yo-"

"Damn, stop."

Natawa ako nang umakto siyang parang nasusuka.

"So, ano nga sa tingin mo?" I asked.

"Fifty-fifty? I don't know. If he likes you, then congrats! Nagbunga lahat ng kalandian mo." Ngumisi siya bago nagpatuloy. "Kung naglalaro, sakyan mo, mag-ingat ka na lang."

"Hindi niya ako pinapansin kahapon. 'Di kami kumain sa labas."

"Ah... baka nasaktan ang ego? Or baka nagtatampo? Bakit mo kasi niyakap si Guinevierre. Alam mo naman kakatapos lang namin magchugihan." She laughed frantically.

"Gago," I cursed and then rolled my eyes at her.

"Gan'to na lang. First time ba nangyari 'yang tampuhan na 'yan?"

I nodded.

She laughed before she resumed. "This is so funny. Wala nga kayong label ta's nagtatampo, amputa."

I grimaced. She couldn't stop herself from laughing. It's not even funny!

"Ganto, kahit wala kayong label, suyuin mo!" she emphasized the word label.

"Huh? Suyo? Pang magjowa lang 'yon!" My face crumpled.

"Eh 'di no more dates na," she teased me.

The next day, I decided to bake cookies for Flint since it was Saturday. I put all my effort in it. I put the cookies inside a cute box and put a ribbon on top.

Nang aalis na ako ay dumiretso ako sa pintuan ng kwarto nila mommy upang magpaalam. Ngunit bigla akong mapahinto nang marinig ang boses ni mommy. There was a hint of frustation in her voice.

"Paano naman nangyari iyon? Christopher naman!"

"Pinagkaisahan nila ako. I-I'm sorry but we need to move-"

"Mi, dy!" they stopped talking when they saw me enter their room.

"Sonya?" lumapit sa akin si mommy at hinalikan ako.

"Punta lang po ako kila Dan."

I saw my daddy looked at me. "Boyfriend mo ba ang Vidales na 'yon, Sonya?" he asked me seriously.
