"A, why are we here?"
Alyssa didn't answer my question and continued to push the cart. I pouted my lips when my friends shrugged their shoulders when I looked at them. It's Friday afternoon and we were actually outside NoFrills. Hindi naman nila sinasabi kung anong gagawin namin dun, well obviously we were going to buy groceries, but for what?
"Sumama ka nalang kasi. Saka it's your fault na hindi ka kinakausap ni Alyssa." Ella whispered making me whine and stomped my fit.
Hindi pa naman kasi nila alam that we were in good terms na, psh. "Eh kanina pa kasi ako tanong ng tanong walang nagsasabi saakin if what's the reason why we're here." I complained making my voice loud enough for Alyssa to hear it. Pero deadma.
"Para mag grocery?"-Ara
"I know! Ano akala mo saakin iniisip na mag lalaro tayo dito?"
Sabi ko ng makapasok na kami ng NoFrills. We went straight at the fruits and vegetables section.
"Ang moody mo this day Dennise." said Bang after putting a box of strawberry in the cart.
"I've never seen her like that."-Amy
"That's the cause of her monthly period." I heard Fille whispering to Amy.
Lumingon ako sakanya at sinamaan ng tingin, she just shrugged at me as if saying that she's right. Well tama naman siya, though mas may effect pa rin yung pagtatago nila ng secreto saakin. I was the only one who doesn't know why were inside NoFrills. Muntanga nga lang ang peg ko, tapus si Alyssa naman deadma. Pacool, kaasar.
"Para mas madali mag hiwa-hiwalay nalang kaya tayo."-Ara
"Great idea! We still need to cook dinner when we get there, you know! Cottage."-Amy
"Kanina ko pa yan iniisip eh! Hindi ko lang masabi." Sabad ni Ella na naging dahilan ng pagbatok ko sakanya.
"Lusot kapa. Alam naman naming kahit may iniisip ka hindi mo sasabihin."
"Truth! Kabanas kaya yung ganyan."-Bang
"Wow ah! Ngayon ka pa nabanas sa tagal niyong magbarkada?"-Jia
"Hindi na kami mag barkada." Pairap na sagot ni Ella. She cling her right arm onto Michelle's and started walking away. "Dalhin niyo na si Bangnita sainyo, itapon niyo na rin siya."
"Huy! Joke lang! At least I am being honest here. Para mag bago ka naman kahit konti."-Bang
"Oo nga Ella. Nagiging honest lang siya. Nakakabwisit ka din kasi minsan." Mika agreed making me laugh. Tumingin sila saakin at binigyan ng matanong na tingin.
I continued to laugh, "eh kasi it's funny. You guys are funny!" I said while putting down a piece of an apple in the cart. "Kasi ang tagal tagal na nating magkakasama and this is the first time you've been honest to each other."
"Oo nga noh?" Napapaisip na sabi ni Michelle. She looked around us and pointed out the members. "Ito ito yung mag kaka batch eh. Bang, Mika, Amy, Dennise, Ella, ako, Jia and Fille, five years na tayong mag friefriends. Tapus Ara and Alyssa."
"Bottom line, kami ni Alyssa ang bago." Sabi ni Ara na ngayon ay dinadagdagan ang apples sa cart.
"Why are you getting more apples?"
"Halla siya! Alangan namang ikaw lang kakain?"-Ella
"Hindi naman! Malay ko ba kung gusto niyo din!" Sagot ko at kumuha na rin ng oranges. "We should have a friends talk. Yung pormal. Para wala ng chaos sa grupo natin!"
"Oo nga! Matagal ko ng gustong gawin yang plano mo. Kaso si Ella..."-Jia
"Ako na naman problema?!"-Ella
