Dark Chocolate.
Alam nyo bang lately, pag nakakakita ako ng dark chocolates eh naiiyak ako? Haha. Parang baliw lang. Ganito kasi..
Iyakin ako. AS IN. Sobrang babaw talaga ng luha ko. Umiiyak ako pag nalulungkot yung ibang tao, pag may nakikita akong kawawa, pag inaasar ako ng sobra :)) Haha. Para talaga akong bata. Kaya yung iba kong orgmates lagi ako inaasar para lang matest kung iiyak ako. Nung nakilala ko kasi sila sabi ko pipigilin ko nang umiyak. At nagawa ko yun ng matagal tagal. Hanggang isang araw nung May 16, 2009.
Pinapakita ko sa mga tao sa tambayan yung bago kong nail polish. Napagtripan kasi namin ng bunso, nanay at ate ko na magnail polish ng pare pareho. Alternate pa, purple-pink-purple-pink. Aliw na aliw ako. Tas tinanong ako ni S, sabi nya “Anong kulay nga yan? Patingin.” Tas nung sumagot ako sabi ko na sobrang excited pa “Ang cute no, pareho kaming apat!” Eh hindi ko nga pala nasagot yung tanong nya kaya nagjoke sya sabi nya “He! Shut up!”
GRABE. Nagulat ako na shinut-up nya ako. Mababaw man eh ayun, umiyak ako. Ng sobra. As in instant tulo ng luha sabay sabi ng “Ang sama mooo..” T_T (Parang bata talaga ako).
Syempre nung umiyak ako nagulat lahat ng tao eh antagal tagal nila akong ineffort paiyakin tas napigil ko. Tas yun lang sinabi ni S at todo iyak nako.
Nagsorry naman sya at di naman ako ganun kababaw para magalit. Okay na sana kaso nung gabing yun, nasa jeep kami paputang Philcoa. May magandang babae sa jeep. May kausap sya sa phone (in Italian) at sobrang ingay nya. Anlakas ng boses. Pagbaba nung babae, sabi ni S “Dapat ang magagandang babae hindi ganun magsalita eh, nakakaturn off.” Tas natawa ako. Nung narinig nya ko tumawa sabi nya “O andy, tawa ka jan. Wag ka magalala, di ka naman maganda.” GRABE. Strike 2. Sabi ko “Ang sama mo talaga!” Sabi ni S “Joke lang to naman! Okay lang yan,. sobrang bait mo naman!” Ay grabe lang. Kakaasar talaga. Nabadtrip ako nun kaya sabi ko uwi nako, di nako sasama sa dinner.
Kinabukasan, dahil bad trip ako, di ako masyadong nagsasalita. nagmukmok ako sa library ng tambayan namin. Natulog ako sa hammock hanggang hapon. Pag dumarating siya, umiiwas ako. Pag kinakausap nya ko, Oo-hindi lang ang sagot ko.
Pagdating ng hapon, nilapitan nya ko tas sabi nya saken tulungan ko daw sya sa thesis nya (maglilinis ng aquarium at magpapakain ng isda). Sabi ko “Matapos mo kong awayin. Hmp. Sige na nga.” (syempre di ko rin naman matitiis na mahirapan sya mag-isa dun)
Paglabas namin, nauna ako maglakad kasi nga tampo pa rin ako. Tas sabi nya bigla “Uy teka, may nakalimutan ako.” Tapos paglingon ko, may hawak syang dark chocolates tapos may nakadikit na “SORRY” dun sa box. Pagkaharap ko sabi nya “Andy, sorry na. Sorry talaga.” Kinuha ko yung box tapos pinukpok ko sa ulo nya.
Tapos ayun, bati na kami :) Haha. Walang kwenta. Gusto ko lang ikwento. Natouch akong natandaan nyang Dark Chocolates ang favorite ko (kakasabi ko lang kasi 3 days before). Bihira din kasi yun magbigay ng kung ano ano sa mga tao. Kaya tandang tanda ko yung araw na yun :)
