MY EYES FURROWED as I almost run to get my freaking phone. It's ringing so damn loud. I checked the time at our wall clock. It's still 4:30, who in the world would call at this time? Dali-dali kong pinunasan ang basa kong kamay habang sinisilip sa aking phone ang pangalan ng tumatawag.

JERK FACE is calling..

Naiinis na sinagot ko ang tawag. "What do you want jerk? Don't you have other friends to bother there in America? It's fucking early!" I grumpily hissed.

"Are you in your red days?" I grunted at his teasing tone. He often call me these past few days and it's kind of pissing me off already. Hindi ko siya maintindihan. If he really wants someone, then he shouldn't have left.

It's been two years since he left. It's been two long years since the two month condition ended. Masyadong naging mabilis ang pagdaan ng mga araw hanggang sa taon na ang binibilang namin. Dalawang taon na ang nakalipas. I just can't believe it.

"What do you want?" Pilit kong pinakalma ang aking boses.

"I just wanna check upon you." Rinig ko ang matunog niyang pagbuntong-hininga.

"No shit, Khalil Forest. Ilang beses na bang nangyari 'to? I know you didn't call me just to check on my well-being." Sabi ko saka nagpakawala ng matunog na paghikab.

"How mean, witch. Kausap mo ako tapos bigla kang hihikab? Naging kayo lang ng Lucas mo nawalan ka na ng paki-alam sa'kin." Pagdadrama pa ng lalaki. I just can't help but to roll my eyes. Exactly how many times did I already hear this from him? Palagi siyang may baong ganitong linya every time he calls.

"Just get to the point, okay. Ask what you wanna know so I can go back to sleep. I've still barely close my eyes when you called." Pandidiretso ko na sa kanya. He's taking too much time. I wanna spend my free weekend in sleeping. College have never been nice to me since the last few years but it was specially cruel to me now that I'm graduating already.

"You know what I want to know, Loraine." Biglang namang naging seryoso ang boses niya. Napabuga na lamang ako ng hangin saka napahilot sa aking noo. I already know what he's gonna say. "Who's that fucking Aaron guy? What was he doing in your house and why was that bastard holding her hands so fucking casually?" Tila kasing lamig ng yelo ang kanyang boses.

"Kali," nahihirapan akong magpaliwanag. "My dear friend, Olivia is free to be in a relationship with any guy she likes." Marahan kong sabi, ipinapaintindi ang bawat salita sa kanya.

"I know, but what if that fucktard takes advantage of her? You can't tell what's going on the mind of guys these days---"

"Jerk face, calm your ass down. I've met the guy. He's decent." Kalmado kong sabi. Natahimik naman siya sa kabilang linya.

"I can't believe this, I'm sexier and hotter than that turd. And what kind of face is that? Mukhang alimango.. tch." Rinig kong pagbulong pa niya sa kabilang linya. Napabuntong-hininga akong muli. Now he's complaining. Honestly, I don't understand why he chose to be away when he didn't even make an effort to move on from my sister.

And worse, palagi niya akong tinatawagan kapag nababalitaan niyang may kinikitang ibang lalaki si Olivia. It's out of my control if Olivia wants to date other guys. Isa pa, she's already in legal age, and she's not hiding the fact that she wants to date someone. And I always make sure that the guy is decent enough to get mine and Carter's approval. Even Dad is hesitant to just let any guy date our Olivia.

And seeing how Olivia's doing fine, I can conclude that even Kali decides to court her again, she'll reject him..

"Why don't you just go and date other girls too? You should move on, it's been two years already." Napapagod ko nang sabi. He tched on the other line.
