BAD BOY IN LUV

Chapt. 34 Torpeng Ice

A week later....

SALLY'S POV

"I'm so happy for you guys!!" Guess what? May family dinner kami ngayon kasama ang pamilya ni Chrystal. Me and Chrystal and also both our parents are so happy to hear that Ate Ayumi and Kuya Vinci are engaged kasi nag propose daw si Kuya Vinci kay Ate Ayumi last week. And nga pala, I am out of the hospital now. My stab healed faster than I expected and I am back to normal.

"My, my, I'm so happy for both of you!" Mom and Dad flew back here in the Philippines nang malaman nilang engaged na si Kuya. They approved Ate Ayumi to be Kuya's soon-to-be wife. I'm so so happy for them!

And where did Kuya Vinci propose? He proposed in front of our school gate. Like omaygad talaga. Madaming tao daw ang nakakita. Halos business major students daw. But still, masaya ako para sa kanilang dalawa.

Tumatawa lang kami sa mga kuwentuhan nina Kuya Vinci at Ate Ayumi tungkol sa relationship nila through the 4 years na pinagsamahan nila. Hmph! Naiingit ako kay Kuya. Kasi nakita niya na ang babaeng para talaga sa kanya. Gusto ko din sanang makita ang Mr. Right ko pero hindi pa siguro dumating ang panahon.

Tinignan ako ni Dad and he smiled. "How about you baby girl? May boyfriend ka na ba?" Napaubo agad ako.

Umiling ako at ngumiti. "Not yet, Dad. Baka hindi pa kasi dumating si Mr. Right eh. Hihintayin ko lang siya." I said jokingly.

Tumawa naman ang Dad ni Chrystal. "How about my dear CJ?" Napatingin agad si Chrystal. "Ho?"

"May boyfriend ka na ba, anak?" Her dad asked.

Umiling si Chrystal. "Wala pa po."

"Get boyfriends already, girls. I wanna see you both happy with your loved ones." Sabi ng mom ni Chrystal. Ngumiti lang ako at tsaka pinatuloy na ang pag kain.

-----THE NEXT DAY-----

ICE'S POV

"Wala ka bang planong umamin sa kanya?" Bungad ni Zion sakin sa hallway.

"I don't know yet." Was all I said.

Hinarangan niya ako. "Alam mo, last week sinabi ko ang lahat ng nararamdaman ko kay Chrystal. At hinihintay ko pa ang magiging sagot niya."

"What if she rejects you?"

Yumuko muna siya. He was thinking. At biglang ngumiti. "Kapag ireject niya ako, masakit man sakin pero maging magkaibigan pa din kami. That's how I respect her decisions. So paano mo malaman kung irereject niya ka o hindi kung hindi mo pa nagawa? How would you know diba?" He said and chuckled.

"Hindi pa ako ready. Not now." Nginisian niya ako.

"Wah leader-nim, first time kong makita ang shy side mo ah? Nakakapanibago sa pakiramdam." Sinamaan ko lang siya ng tingin at patuloy na sa paglalakad.

SALLY'S POV

Habang lumalakad ko sa hallway, nakasabay ko si Timothy. "Good morning." Masiglang bati niya.

"Good morning din."

"Okay ka na ba?" Napatingin ako sa kanya.

"Huh?"

"Okay ka na ba? Is your stab healed?" I smiled sheepishly at tumango.

"Yeah, I'm fine na."

"Why did you even took the aim for that gangster?" Nagtatakang tanong niya.

"I don't know. I just got the urge to." He chuckled.

"I guess I'll take that answer. Tara sabay na tayong pumasok ng classroom." Sabi niya.
