Chapter 17: Map That Leads To You
WENSH'S POV -
I had to leave early from work. Flight na kasi mamaya ni Bryan pabalik ng Canada. Wala muna sya Strasser for a month pero he'll be doing his works via the internet, syempre. Akala siguro nya makakaligtas sya.
I'm on my way sa condo where he's staying para sunduin sya. Magbobonding muna kami before I send him off sa airport.
*TOK TOK TOK!*
BRYAN: Wait!
WENSH: Bilis bilis!
BRYAN: (binuksan ang pinto)
WENSH: (pumasok sa room) OH MY GOD! (nagtakip ng mata)
BRYAN: What?
WENSH: Magbihis ka nga!
BRYAN: Arte nito. Naka-towel naman ako.
WENSH: Eww. Put some clothes on!
BRYAN: Don't act as if you've never seen me topless before.
WENSH: Waaaaah! Don't remind me! It still creeps me out.
BRYAN: Magbibihis na nga ko. Dyan ka lang.
WENSH: Yes! Go go! (cringes) Ewww yuck.
While waiting for Bryan to finish, nangialam muna ko ng mga gamit nya. I saw a picture of him and Jessica sa ibabaw ng DVD player. They look good together. Jessica is a former room mate of mine sa Canada. Ako nga yung nagpapakilala sa kanilang dalawa.
BRYAN: I'm ready.
WENSH: Ready na ba gamit mo?
BRYAN: Yeah, everything's packed.
WENSH: Dalhin na natin para didiretso na kita sa airport mamaya.
BRYAN: Okay. Service pala kita ngayon.
WENSH: Kung hindi lang kita mamimiss, hindi naman kita ihahatid.
BRYAN: It's just a month, you know.
WENSH: But you'll be transferring back if you got engaged.
BRYAN: Edi bumalik ka din sa Canada.
WENSH: Nah. It's good to be back here.
BRYAN: You don't want to go back to Canada? Ever?
WENSH: Ewan. Pag may nagtulak sakin, maybe I'll come back.
BRYAN: Halika! Itutulak kita sa hagdan!
WENSH: Pfft. Bilisan mo na nga! Kunin mo na yung gamit mo.
He carried his own luggage papunta sa basement, where I parked my car. Then I started driving.
WENSH: San mo gustong pumunta?
BRYAN: Ikaw nagyaya sakin. Edi ikaw ang bahala.
We ended up walking sa Luneta together habang kumakain ng ice cream. Umupo kami sa isang bench.
BRYAN: Bakit mo ko dinala dito?
WENSH: Ayaw mo? Gusto mo ideretso kita sa Canada?
BRYAN: Nagtatanong lang. -_____-
WENSH: Eh sa gusto ko dito. Dito wala akong masyadong bad memories.
BRYAN: Bad memories?
