Chapter IV

"Of course. Kaya mo na namang tumayo, Maica?"

Maica just nod.

"buti na lang uwian na."

"I'll expect you anytime na vacant ka, Maica."

"Pwede po ba tuwing hapon ng uwian?"

Jayden's smile widened, "Sure. I still needed you that time."

          The way he said it, parang biglang kinabahan si Maica though at least, hindi yung tipong nakakatakot na kaba. Hinawakan na sya sa kamay ni Dylan at inalalayan patayo. Si Liza naman ay nakasunod sa kanila.

"Saan mo gustong kumaen?" Dylan asked.

"Oo nga, Maica, saan?"

"Mcdo."

"Mcdo??" ulit ni Liza.

"Bakit?"

"Duh. Date po toh noh."

"Duh, kung date toh, bakit kasama ka?"

Liza's eyes glint playfully, "Ee...sama mo na ako."

"Gusto mo tayong dalawa lang?" tanong naman ni Dylan.

NAmumulang umiling lang sya, "N-no. Gusto ko ngang kasama si Liza."

        She caught a glimpse of what Liza is thinking and she almost smiled. Masyado nang malayo ang nararating ng imagination nito sa kanilang dalawa ni Dylan and she's very happy for her though she's a little bit, as in like a bit of rice,jealous. Not with Dylan, but she can see the longing in Liza's eyes, hoping for a man like him. Ikinawit na lang nya ang kamay sa braso nito. Inisang tawid lang nila ang Mcdo and she noticed Dylan walking behind them like a body guard or he is just being gentleman.

She don't know with him kung ano ang totoong ugali nito. Hindi naman nya kailangang kilalanin ito dahil sigurado siyang mapapagod din ito sa kahihintay. Wala din syang planong patagalin pa ang paghihintay nito. They can be good friends pero hindi na pwedeng humigit pa don. Wala pa syang planong ma-inlove ganitong halos mabaliw na sya sa mga nangyayari sa kanya.

Bigla syang kinilabutan ng maalala ang bawat salitang binitawan niya, ang ginawa niya at ang takot sa mata ni Liza. What if ito na ang masaktan niya without even her being aware of what was happening. Her stomach turned with that thought. She can't hurt her bestfriend and she shouldn't hurt anyone.

 

" Baka tama si Trishia, baka nga may lahi kaming mangkukulam. Pero bakit walang sinasabi sakin sina mama? At bakit nakakagawa ako ng mga bagay na parang hindi naman normal? It's really not I think of reality."

       And speaking of reality, bigla siyang napabalik sa realidad ng tapikin ni Liza. She is looking at her worriedly."Maica, are you ok? Bigla ka na lang natulala and your eyes change with different colors."
