'"My girlfriend has a tendency to shout, especially when she's blushing."
Ano ba 'yan! Gilfriend niya ang mukha niya!
Sino’ng nagba-blush? Blush my foot! Ano’ng sinasabi ng hambog na iyon? Ako? Magbablush sa kanya? 'Wag na uy!
Kung mamula man ako, dahil sa galit or inis iyon sa kanya! 'Wag siyang feeler! Kadiri siya! Kaderder to the highest level!
We were on our way home, and I was busy ranting in my thoughts.
Sa isip ko, kinakatay ko na siya at sinisilaban ng buhay ng ilang beses habang chopchop ang katawan niya. Tinatanggal ang mata. Pinuputol ang ilong.
I looked at him.
Ngiting ulol si yabang.
"Saya mo eh," I murmured.
"What?" He turned to me while still wearing that irritating smile.
Gwapo talaga siya kahit saang anggulo. Kainis. Bakit ba kasi ang gwapo nitong ngumiti? Grabe. Nakaka-hypnotize.
Inismiran ko siya. "Ano’ng nginingiti-ngiti mo diyan? Para kang ulol." Sabay irap at tingin sa bintana.
"Wow. Is smiling a crime now? Perhaps, a sin? Since when? Whoa. I didn't know that." Nanlalaki pa ang mga mata nito.
"Wag kang OA, KJ." I smirked.
Bingo!
Biglang tahimik ni yabang at dumiretso ng maneho. Hindi na rin umimik at hindi na rin ngumiti.
I mentally patted my shoulder. Sabi ko na, eh. If there’s something in this world that could make him shut his mouth up, dalawang magic letters lang. K and J.
I suddenly heard my phone calling.
Dali-dali kong kinuha ang cellphone ko sa bag. I hurriedly pressed the answer button.
"Hello, Ma."
"Astrid, go straight to your Tita Elena's house. We'll be having our dinner there," said Mama excitedly.
"But, why?" Bakit kina yabang pa? May sarili naman kaming dining room. Poor na ba kami para makikain kina yabang?
Ayoko! Ayoko na ulit makasama sa dining table ang yabang na ito. Naaalala ko kasi ang nangyari noong huli silang nagdinner sa bahay. Nakita niya ang hindi kaaya-ayang bagay.
"We have a big announcement, baby."
"What? But—“
Mama ended the call.
Nice talking, mother superior.
Ibinalik ko na sa bag ko ang cellphone ko. Bakit kaya? Ano naman kayang announcement iyon? Ang labo naman, eh.
Tumingin sa akin si KJ, a what-is-it-about look.
"We'll be having dinner together with the parents. According to my mother, they have a big announcement," I answered lazily.
Ito na ba iyong part na kailangan kong ma-excite? Naman kasi. Pasurprise effect pang nalalaman, kakatanda na, e. Mga tanders talaga.
"What announcement?" KJ asked.
