Si Introvert at Extrovert

Scene 25

Nginitian ko din ang mga kasama nina Jenica bilang pamamaalam.

“Are the two of you close?”, nabigla ako sa tanong ni Mico. This is the first time she asked me involving a girl. He is currently driving me somewhere else kasi napansin ko na hindi ang daan patungo sa kanila.

“Casual friends lang kami. Since siya ang ang kaklase ko sa tatlong subjects ko at dagdag mo pa na nakasama ko siya sa audition months ago”

“May iba’t iba palang klase ng friends?” I sensed amusement in his voice when he asked that one.

“Oo naman, you can categorize your friends according to your closeness to them”

“Okay lecture me about it”

“Okay but help me with it. Mention some names and I will tell you what kind of friends they are to me.”

“So may participation pala talaga ako huh”, he chuckled when he said that. Just so adorable.

“Oo naman”

“That Troy guy”, seryosong sabi niya. Talas pala ng memory nito. Si Troy lang naman yung umaproach sa akin habang kasama silang tatlo ni Mikee at Keith.

“He’s a civil friend. Civil because we just greeted each other in a hallway and that’s it nothing much deeper. We just known each other by names. Unlike my casual friend na si Jenica that we got the chance to hang-out”

Nakita ko naman siyang tumango. Nakahinga naman ako ng maluwag. Mabuti na lang at natanggap niya ang explaination ko.

“How about Sam”

“Oh! She is the girl-bestfriend/ sister friend to me. She is----”, I beamed when I remembered Ate Sam. I really love her.

More than kuya Kirk pa yata hehehe.

“Girl bestfriend? You mean you have a boy bestfriend?” , he cuts me. Sayang wala pa akong explanation tungkol kay Ate Sam.

“Oo”simpleng sabi ko sa kanya while remembering Ricky’s face. Kumusta na kaya ang baklitang iyon?

“And who is he? ”, he sounds so irritated.

“Si Ricky, he’s my ex?”

“What? Naging bestfriend mo ang ex mo?”, parang sinapian na naman si Mico sa kasungitan niya.

“Oo”, casual na sabi. As much I could ayaw kong magsalita ng mahahaba para wala ng follow up question sa akin si Mico.

“I want to meet him”, nanlaki ang mata ko sa sinabi niya. Parang ayaw kong pumayag sa suggestion niya. Paano na lang kung magustuhan siya ni Ricky? Talandi pa naman yun.
