"Mukhang umalis na talaga si Reese.. do you think your plan worked?"
Maevis and I are now inside Kampkloi's studio, she was asking me to help her set up her new bass guitar and since vacant ko naman ay sumama na rin ako sa kanya. We're the only ones here dahil si Maevis lang naman ang may access dito unless the band are practicing or rehearsing.
"I guess? She looked scared when I told her about the drug cartel, and I didn't see her face after that." I answered while plugging the wire into the amplifier. "Sydney got my back, so I'm certain that was the big factor on why she was scared as well."
"I don't know. It's suspicious at how fast she was to comply with what you said, I may not know her personally but she succeeded in breaking you and Ms. Clemonte, right?" Napalunok naman ako dahil sa huling sinabi niya.
I hate lying to my friends.
Lalo na sa kanila ni Ely, but with the history me and Solana have.. I don't think it's best if may nakakaalam tungkol sa amin. Kahit gaano ko pa sila pinagkakatiwalaan.
"Y-yeah, but I'm just glad she's out of the picture now. We may not be together anymore but protecting Ms. Clemonte is one of my priorities, nothing will ever change that." Maevis nodded.
"Ely is the only one who seems successful out of the three of us." She scoffed, "Even if they don't admit it yet."
"Ano ba talaga ang nangyari sa inyo ni Ms. Maddison?" I asked in curiosity at naupo sa harap niya, napatigil naman ito sa pag-aayos ng tono ng gitara niya at tumingin sa'kin.
"..Well, it's complicated."
"Dude, more complicated than my situation?"
"It's similar."
"Ha?"
"Nothing. I don't really wanna talk about it, matagal na rin kaming tapos kaya hindi ko na pinagtutuunan ng pansin pa," I know she meant that dahil umiba bigla ang mood niya.
"Pero.. mahal mo pa?"
Hindi niya ako sinagot kaya napa buntong hininga na lang ako, I really thought that they match each other well, looks like sawi rin pala sa pag-ibig 'tong kaibigan ko.
She was strumming notes on her bass guitar at kita mo talaga na ine-enjoy niya ang bawat pagtugtog ng gitara. "Do you do that?"
"Do what?"
"Strumming..." I smirked, "Ms. Maddi—"
"Putangina mo, Khione Avila!" Napatigil naman siya dahil sa sinabi ko, "Wala na iniisip ko na tuloy."
"So?"
"Mga iniisip mo talaga, minsan may sense pero kadalasan kabulastugan." Natatawa na lang ako sa pang-aasar sa kanya dahil bumusangot ang mukha niya, halatang napikon sa sinabi ko.
"Nung inuman natin dati diba, lasing na lasing ka tas umiiyak ka pa sabay sabi mo na gusto mo i-lick—"
"Ay si gago oh, bakit mo ba 'yan bini-bring up!"
Nakahawak na ako sa tiyan ko sa lakas ng tawa ko dahil tumayo na talaga siya para lang pigilan ako sa pagsasalita, ewan ko ba. I just randomly want to tease her.
"May video ka pa dito—"
"Khio!" Inis niyang saad, "Hindi ako 'yon, it was the alcohol speaking. Sinaniban ako ng kalibugan kaya tumahimik ka na diyan. Bwisit na 'to, ikaw humanda ka talaga sa'kin pag ikaw nalasing tas magd-drama ka tungkol sa inyo ni Ms. Clemonte."
"Kung hindi ka mauuna na malasing."
Akmang hahabulin niya sana ako pero may narinig kaming kumatok sa labas ng pintuan ng studio kaya napatigil kaming dalawa.
