It's Complicated

Starting..

What the?

Ang bango ng hininga.

Katulad nang una ko syang makita, tinignan ko sya mula ulo hanggang paa.

Lumayo ako sa kanya, "Are you going somewhere like a--?"

"Like what?"

Nakatingin lang sya sakin, "Like a date?" she continued

"Yes."

She just smiles at me. "I'm meeting someone important today."

"Who?" I followed her, kasi kinuha nya yung bag nya sa sofa.

Lumapit sya sakin at tinignan ako.

She leans so close na naamoy ko na naman ang bibig nya,

May kiss na naman ba ako na katulad kahapon?

I smiled before I close my eyes.

tuuut tuuut

ang tagal na wala pa rin?

Pag dilat ko, nakatingin sya sakin at nakangiti ng nakakaloko.

"Uhm, aray! Ang sakit kasi ng mata ko kaya ako pumikit." I rolled my eyes inside my head.

Great!

"Really?" She smirked. "I thought you're expecting something." she almost whisper.

Napalunok ako.

Susme tong babae na to.

"W-wala ah,"

Lumapit sya ulit sa akin, sobrang lapit na pwede nya na akong mahalikan ulit,

Bumulong sya sa tenga ko ng "It's a secret."

She smirked again and leave.

Secret kung sino kakatagpuin nya?

That morning, until this late afternoon, hindi ako mapakali.

"Hi fucker!" Katrina said on the other line

"What the fuck Katrina?"

"Are you expecting someone to call?"

"N-no!"

"You're such a terrible lier Rhi!" She laughed

I sighed

"By the way, I saw her."

"Saw who?"

"The love of your life,"

"Where?"

She laughed again.

"Here at Starbucks St. Charbel. You know where that is right?"

"Yeah,"

..

"Wow, fast and furious Ramos?"

"No. Just curious."

What?

She laughed again.

"Girlfriend duties?"

I ignore her.

"Rhian, ano ba? Ganyan ka ba talaga? obvious ka na naman e!"

Hindi ko sya pinansin

"Letse ka naman eh! Tigilan mo nga yan! Palinga linga ka, nahihilo tuloy ako."

There she is! With a guy.

"Kat?"

"Ano?"

"Anong gagawin ko? Lalapitan ko ba?"
