“Anong meron Papa B?” tanong ni Georgie kay Bryle. Nagpasama kasi ito sa isang 5-star restaurant.
Magpo-propose na ba siya sa akin? Tanong ni Georgie sa isip niya. How silly of him. He really likes Bryle, no doubt about that, but he knew for a fact that what he feels is just a mask for what he really feels.
“I’m going to ask Ganda to marry me.” simpleng sagot ni Bryle sabay lapit sa information desk.
So he is right. This thing is for marriage proposal, but not for him. It’s for Kim, the great Kimberly Miranda.
Lumapit siya kay Bryle at sinabing lalabas lang siya para magpahangin since nabobored siya. What he said is not really true, he wanted to go out pero hindi para magpahangin, kundi para maglabas ng sama ng loob.
Bakit ba siya apektado kung gustong pakasalan ni Bryle si Miranda? Ano naman sa kanya? Alam naman niya simula pa lang nung una na mahal na ni Bryle si Kim, pero bakit ganun ang nararamdaman niya? There is something wrong with him, something went wrong when they all came to his life.
Something he burried long time ago...
Parang naninikip ang dibdib niya. This is not good! He thought to himself, then weirdly, he found himself dialing Ashley’s number.
“O-M-G! Geronimo, you called me!?”
He chuckled softly. Bakit ba niya tinawagan ang babaeng ‘to?
“Hindi, tinext lang kita.” sarcasm is his favorite language.
“Whatever. Basta I’m happy kasi tinawagan mo ako. Anong kailangan mo? Oh wait, don’t tell me you’ll ask me out?” she asked happily, excitedly.
“Gaga, anong pinagsasabi mo dyan? Lesbianism lang ‘teh? Kadiri ka talaga.”
Then she didn't uttered any word. Georgie can even imagine her pouting. How childish! He thought that maybe it was a bad idea calling her in the first place.
“Bakit ba ang sama mo sa akin? Crush naman kasi kita talaga eh...”
He rolled his eyes, fully aware that she cannot see him then grinned, “Crush mo ako, pake ko?”
“ANG MEAN MO GERONIMO!!!”
“So? Tara, samahan mo ako sa mall. Wag kang umangal kundi sasabunutan kita.” then he ended the call and went back inside tha restau.

“Wag mo nga akong hawakan. Mamaya pagkamalan pang girlfriend kita. Like ew lang yun.” maarterng sabi nito kay Ashley na kanina pa nakahawak sa braso niya.
Nagpout ito bago nagsalita, “Okay lang. Atleast kahit sa mata ng ibang tao, tayo.”
