Chapter 8

You're Still The One

Joaqui: Bro naguguluhan na talaga ako sayo. Ang close ninyo ni Kim at marami na ring nag-think na kayo na dahil inseparable kayo pero bakit sabi mo ni hindi ka pa nga nanliligaw? May feelings ka ba talaga sa kanya o baka naman pinaglalaruan mo lang sya?

Gerald: Ang sama mo naman magsalita dude! You know naman na never kong magawang saktan si Kim! Ang hirap na nga ng situation ko eh. Every minute na magka-sama kami I’m so tempted na i-hug and ma-kiss sya. Ang hirap magpigil ng nararamdaman ko kaya lang natatakot ako.

Joaqui: You’re in love with her, right?

Gerald: Uhm…

Joaqui: Dude, bestfriend mo ako so you can tell me everything. Kahit chismoso ako when it comes to your secrets, you can trust me dude.

Gerald: Sige na nga, I admit. Oo. I’m so in love with Kim. I’m always so happy when she’s with me and whenever we’re not together or walang pasok, sya palagi iniisip ko. It’s like my day isn’t complete if I don’t get to see her beautiful face and hear her cute laugh. I heard our maids talking pa nga the other day na di daw nila alam kung paano sasabihin kay mommy na I need psychiatric help na daw. Paano kasi they’ve noticed na minsan tumatawa ako by myself or kinakausap ko sarili ko. I’m really crazy for this girl bro. Believe me dude, I really want to tell her how much I love her. I just don’t want everything to change for the worse between us. I don’t know what to do if I lose her kaya ayokong i-risk na masira ang aming friendship.

Joaqui: It’s your decision bro pero if I were you, I’d take the risk, she’s so worth it!

*****************************************************

Mel: I’m soooo excited for tonight na. It’s been ages since we last had a girls’ night out.

Kim: What you really mean is, excited ka lang maka pick-up! (laughed)

Joyce: Look who’s talking. Ikaw lang naman ang palaging first na nakaka pick-up sa atin ah.

Mel: Kayo lang ba ang may karapatang magpakasaya kesyo may mga toyboys na kayo!

Kim: Girlfriend, dalawa tayong single, y and free dito no. Partner in crime mo ako tonight.

Joyce: Hala! Ayaw ni Gerald ng ganyan! Lagot ka..

Kim: Why ba? Hindi ko naman boyfriend yung manhid na yun no!

Shaina: Wow Kimmy, killer mini and ‘do me’ boots? You y thang! (laughed)

Mel: Let’s go na guys.

**********************************************************

~ At the club ~

Joel: Pare, check out that chinita girl in red mini skirt. Damn she’s so hot!

Enchong: Drop-dead gorgeous man! I’ve been wanting to dance with her, kanina pa.

Joel: So go for it!

Enchong: Kasi palagi akong nauunahan eh. Daming guys nag-approach sa kanya.

Joel: What about now? Wala na syang guy partner. It’s your chance now bro.

Enchong: Hey gorgeous! Can I have this dance?

Kim: Sure! (seductive smile)

Enchong: I’m Enchong nga pala.

Kim: I’m Kim.

Enchong: Are you from around here?

Kim: Not too far, about two towns away from here.

Enchong: You’re not a local pala. That’s why I’ve never seen you before. I’m sure if taga rito ka, I wouldn’t have missed such a beautiful face.

Kim: Wa’g mo naman akong titigan ng ganyan, naco-conscious ako.

Enchong: Sorry ha I couldn’t help myself. Sana maging friends na tayo and we can get to know each other better.

Kim: Sure, I’m always happy to find new friends.

~ After a few songs. ~

Kim: Thanks for the dance Enchong ha. Enjoy ako.

Enchong: Where are you going?

Kim: The girls and I are just getting some drinks. Nakakapagod na kasi magsayaw. (smile).

Enchong: Ako na. I’ll get you girls some drinks.

Kim: No E, thanks na lang. Nakakahiya naman sayo.

Enchong: I insist, it’s my shout.

Mel: Kimmy free drinks! He insists nga diba? Tanggapin mo na ang grasya.

They all had a great time at the club. Enchong and Joel stayed with them the whole time. At 3 am, the girls decided to head to Kim’s place for a sleep-over. She’s the only one among them who live on her own and thus, no parental supervision. As Enchong and Kim were walking to the carpark, they exchanged numbers and promised to keep in touch.

Enchong: What an amazing night!

Joel: Pare parang na love at first sight ka yata ah.

Enchong: Sino ba naman ang hindi ma in-love with her, she’s a major hottie at ang bait pa. I was so surprised to hear na wala syang boyfriend. What kind of guys attends her school ba?

Joel: Eh kasi diba Mel said intimidated sila sa Gerald na yun na hang-out palagi with Kim hindi naman pala nanliligaw.

Enchong: Oo nga. I haven’t met him but I hate the guy’s guts already. Tanga nya. While he takes her for granted, it’s his lost kasi ako, I’ll definitely wine and dine a special girl like her every chance I get. Pag nakatikim si Kim sa kamandag ko, she’ll be saying, “Gerald who?” (Laughed and gave Joel a high five)
