Chapter 28: Girlfriend

Lunes ng umaga maaga nagising sina Arlene at Jelly pero nagulat sila pagkat si Cristine nagluluto na. “Cristine ako na” sabi ni Jelly. “Oh no, sit down, breakfast will be served in ten minutes” pacute ng dalaga.

“What the hell is wrong with her?” bulong ni Arlene. “Sabi ko sa iyo kausapin natin pagdating kahapon e” bulong ni Jelly. “Nagkulong agad diba? At I never saw that shirt before” sabi ni Arlene. “Cristine, ang ganda naman ng shirt na suot mo” pacute ni Jelly.

“I know right, kay Enan ito pero sa akin na daw” sagot ng dalaga. “You slept at his place” sabi ni Arlene. “I did, ang sarap ng tulog ko grabe” sabi ni Cristine na dinala na yung ulam sa lamesa. “Let’s eat” pacute niya sabay nginitian yung dalawa.

“Its only five” sabi ni Arlene. “Oh, e luto na e” sagot ng dalaga. “Did something happen?” tanong ni Jelly. “Hmmm I met his parents, we went to church, I met his friends then nakaidlip kami sa sofa, he embraced me”

“Then I slept in his room, nilisan ko room niya then nung umaga he came over then we slept again ay niyakap niya ulit ako” pacute ni Cristine na kinikilig. “Then?” tanong ni Arlene. “Then? Oh yeah we smacked nung paalis na ako, it’s a start” landi ng dalaga.

“Kasama sa acting yon?” tanong ni Arlene. “Anong acting?” tanong ni Cristine. “So you mean to say you really like him?” tanong ni Jelly at napatigil ang dalaga at tinitigan yung dalawa. “What if I do? Is there something wrong?” sabat niya kaya natakot na yung dalawa.

“Hindi naman, we just wanted to know the real score” sabi ni Arlene. “Since when? Why?” tanong ni Jelly. “Ewan ko, basta I do like him” sabi ni Cristine. “Does he like you back?” tanong ni Arlene at doon na nagsimangot si Cristine. “Ikaw kasi e” bulong ni Jelly.

“Manhid siya. Pero okay lang kasi di pa niya maalis sa isipan niya yung babae na yon” sabi ni Cristine. “Violet?” tanong ni Arlene. “Why did you have to say her name?!” sigaw ng artista kaya napalunok ang manager niya sa takot. “Oo yung Violet na yon pero nevermind, he told me he is moving on and I will help him” pacute ni Cristine.

“So help us understand again why you like him” sabi ni Jelly. “Hmmm..guys are only good to me because they find me pretty or want something and you know what. Siya kahit walang kailangan sa akin he is always nice to me”

“You know what the other day he said something that made me like him even more. Sabi niya all this time meron gap between us, he treats with me added respect kasi daw celebrity ako. Oo that hurt kasi when I was being a real friend to him na e siya pala hindi pa sa akin. Pero napaisip ako, yung mga ginawa niya kusa niya ginawa”

“I mean yung nga wala siyang habol sa akin, like nung he cheered me up sa set, kusa niya yon ginawa at walang halong pambobola o nag eexpect ng kapalit like me liking him which I did. I cant exlain e, pero sa pagkakaintindi ko friend na limited, still he went out of his way to those a lot for me”

“In short hindi plastic, oh whatever I know I am not making sense” sabi ng dalaga at nagulat siya pagkat nakangiti yung mga kasama niya. “Actually you are making sense” pacute ni Jelly.

“Basta he makes me happy ano ba?” sabi ni Cristine at nagbungisngisan sila. “Anyway, how about the contract?” tanong ni Arlene at nanlaki ang mga mata ng artista. “Oh my God I forgot! I was having a good time and I really forgot to tell him the good news…oh no…grabe nakalimutan ko pa itanong yung problem niya!” sigaw ni Cristine.

Tumakbo ang dalaga para kunin phone niya, “Cristine its only five in the morning!” sigaw ni Arlene. Pagbalik ni Cristine nakataas kilay niya habang binabasa yung isang text message. “Ano problema?” tanong ni Jelly. “He went to the hospital dahil daw naospital lola ni Violet. Ew that bitch! Sabi mo nag move on na pero shit demet!” hiyaw ng dalaga at muntikan na niya binato phone nya.
