Novelist's Romance

Ch. 09

ANDREA’S POV

 

Grabe, I am so so excited about the upcoming issue of our magazine. I never though kuya will entrust this to me. Kaya naman hindi ko siya bibiguin! I will definitely make this issue na pinaka da best sa lahat ng nairelease namin.

While Zanna was in the shower and I am doing my night rituals, I heard my phone buzz that signals someone has texted me. As I saw who was the sender, My night became literally a good one.

Hindi na maalis ang ngiti sa labi ko. And mukha mang tanga pero I seemed like read the message a hundred times, kahit na isang ‘good night :)’ lang ang natanggap ko.

Okay, di ko alam kung sinend rin ba niya ito sa iba pero atleast nakatanggap ako! Andrea! Stop it! You’re giggling like a highschooler again! I tried scolding myself but it was no help. Kinkilig talaga ako!

Teka, anong irereply ko? Uhh? Thank you for today? I had fun? Why? Why did I had fun? Because kuya treated us some lunch right? And my brother, again, gave the magazine issue’s account to me. So ang labas, bakit ako mag tthank you sakaniya?

So, ano? Good night? Sleep tight? Don’t let the big bugs bite? <3 – uh Andrea! So childish! And what’s with the heart? He’ll notice that you’re head over heels to him!

 I breathe a very deep one and tried gathering all my scattered thoughts. I should act normal, Like a lady, okay.

‘Good night too :) sleep tight.’ Okay. This would do. Kinakabahan ako, magrereply kaya siya? Anong sasabihin ko pag nagreply ulit siya? Sana wag nalang siya magreply, pero parang nakakalungkot naman kung di siya magrereply. AHHH basta! I’ll just send this! And get over with it.

Nakahinga ako ng maluwag ng matapos ko na ang kalbaryo sa pagrereply sa ultimate crush ko. Seriously, Sir Leyn, Kuya Leyn, baby Leyn. Eh? What’s with the baby? I suddenly blushed furiously at the thought. Yung totoo talaga Leynard Gonzalo. What the hell did you do to me?

Before I was able to put my phone on the table, My phone suddenly rang. Oh my gosh! Tumawag? Tumatawag si Leyn? Esh. Bakittt? Dahil sa hindi ko na alam ang gagawin ko, and I am sure si Kuya Leyn naman ito ay pikit mata kong tinouch ang answer button and answered it.

“H-hello?” nagulat ako sa tinis ng boses ko. Halata na ba masiyado na kinikilig ako?

[tss. Andrea.] My kilig suddenly changed into a very big simangot when the monster – I mean the person on the other line answered. Before I answer eh chineck ko na muna ang caller I.D.

KUYA AJ …

“psh. Kuya? Bakit? Panira ka ng moment, alam mo yun?” Walang gana kong sagot. Sinira ni Kuya ang pagpapantasya ko!

[I know. Leynard texted me too. Don’t assume.]
