Chapter 10: A Stalker & A Couch

Chapter 10

Kim's POV

    "Jessica?" Tanong ko sa nag-iisang bitch na nasa harap ko. Pagkatapos niya kong kutyain na tatanga-tanga; inaamin ko oo tanga ako, pero paano niya nalaman na I'm in danger, aber? For all I know iniistalk niya ko. Dapat pala ako lalong matakot para sa buhay ko.
    "Oh? Akala ko ba magpapasalamat ka saken?" She said; in the bitchiest tone she could ever use. Tinaasan ko siya ng kilay.
    "T-Thanks," I lowered my defense; because she obviously deserved it. If it weren't for her, malamang lumulutang na ang magandang katawan ko sa pasig kasama ng mga patay na daga at basura. I'm too pretty for that kind of death.

Pagkatapos ko siyang pasalamatan tinalikuran ko na siya at nagsimula na akong maglakad. Maya-maya habang naglalakad ako pauwi ng bahay; I heard steps behind me that seemed to follow me in whatever direction I take. Kumunot ang noo ko. I started to jog; at ganoon din ang ginawa nung nasa likod ko. My heart started throbbing.
    Bakit ba ayaw akong layuan ni kamatayan ha?
Sinimulan ko ng tumakbo papuntang bahay. Ayan na ko. Malapit na! Hinanda ko na ang susi sa bahay.
    "Ay anak ng bulateng haliparot!-- What the actual shitty f*ck, Jessica?! Gusto mo ba akong patayin sa takot, ha?!" Bago ko pa mabuksan ang pinto, naabutan na ko ng ungas na bitch na 'to na siya palang sumusunod sa akin.
    "Shh! Bilis pasok!" She whispered. mabilis kong binuksan ang pinto at pati siya nakipasok rin sa bahay ko.
    "Someone's been following me," she whispered again habang tumitingin-tingin sa labas mula sa bintana as though checking if someone followed her all the way here.
    Wow, someone’s following you? You? Just, wow. Wow.
    "That's my line!" I said. She rolled her eyes and shook her head.
    "That's not what I meant," she paused and faced me, "I meant to say, someone's been stalking me the whole month," she said, "And I need your help," she added.
    "My help? Why me?" I asked curiously as though I began to gain interest in what she's saying.
    "Ipapapatay mo saken stalker mo? Heck to the no, hindi ko keri yun," I said, "Hindi naman ako si terminator or whateve--"
    "I need you to be my girlfriend," she interrupted, "wait, let me rephrase that," she paused, "I need you to pretend to be my girlfriend," she reworded.
    "Pftt, whuuut?" Natawa ako. Seryoso ba 'to? Ako girlfriend niya? Niya? Ako at si Jessica? Haha! Ano 'to TV show? Lokohan? Loko Moko U? Comedy show? Kumain muna siya ng sinaing na kryptonite bago ako pumayag!

Pagkatapos kong tumawa ng madame tinignan ko siya; only to see her serious face.
    "Teka, seryoso ka? Hindi yun joke? Kase kung joke yun ang corny mo," I said in disbelief. She's still looking at me with her oh so serious face.
    "Seryoso?" She nodded.
    "Sure?" I asked once more as if hindi ako makapaniwalang seryoso siya. She nodded again.
    "Hmm," I narrowed my eyes; thinking, "What's in it for me?" I followed.
She sighed; alam niya na sasabihin ko yun. She rolled her eyes, "I'll do whatever you want for one day," she said.
    "One day? One day lang?" I asked. Pakainin ko na lang siya ng nilagang kryptonite, mabuti pa. She groaned, atsaka ako tinaasan ng kilay.
    "What? Hindi ko nga alam kung magsusucceed ang plano ee!" She exclaimed. I gave her a pained expression.
    "Pero kung magsucceed nga," tinignan niya ako atsaka pumikit ng mariin, "I will do whatever you want for one week," and sighed as if hindi sigurado sa sinabi niya. I raised an eyebrow.
    "One month," tawad ko.
    "One," she paused, "Week," she said firmly.
    "OK, get out," I commanded.
    "OK, OK, one month, geezus!" She exclaimed.
    "Pero!" She added, "Kailangan mag-tagumpay din ang plano na 'to within a month," she said.
    "Hmm," napaisip tuloy ako ng bongga. One month? Keri kaya yun para 'planong' sinasabi niya?
    "Teka teka, ano nga ba yung plano?" I asked.

     "What?" Nanlaki ang mga mata ko. This can't be. This cannot be!
Napaisip ako ng malalim; totoo kaya yung sinabi nito o talagang assumera lang talaga siya na obssesed sa kanya yung tao?
    "Hindi ako nag-aassume!" sigaw niya.
    "Nabasa mo iniisip ko?" Tanong ko naman; wag mong sabihin na may psychic powers 'tong babaitang 'to? Pero naisip ko ule yung sa locker; takot na takot siya. Is it that bad? To make her shake like that? I guess, it really is scaring the heck out of her. But, then again, it was all her fault anyway, if anything.
    "It's written all over your face," she replied. Kinapa ko naman mukha ko; psh, OK.
