Finding number Fifty

Dave and surprises

"HA? ANO?" Matthew asked. 

"Admitted nagselos ako, I wanted to punch you hard but I had a better plan. Fortunately, I took a picture of it... Here---" Jippy said to Matthew habang binibigay ang phone niya to him, tumingin lang ako sa kanilang dalawa as Matthew looked at the picture of him and Elle kissing, Jippy just took a sip from his coffee. 

"What am I supposed to do with it Jippy?" tanong ni Matthew. Jippy, with his evil smile answered... 

"You can use it to your own advantage. Blackmail Elle, na pag di niya hiniwalayan si David... lalabas yang photo na yun." 

"This is too much Jippy. Hindi ko kayang gawin sa kapatid ko to." 

"Matthew, pare, para sa kapatid mo rin to... at para kay Elle. Kung kinakailangang syotain mo si Elle, gawin mo. Alam ko din namang gusto mo siya. Pero sa huli, dapat ibalik mo siya sakin." 

"Aye aye..." sagot ko as I looked at Matthew na parang unsure sa naririnig niya. 

"Matthew? Ano?" tanong ni Jippy. 

"I'm in." 

THE END OF RECALL

It was nearly 9pm nang may kumatok sa pintuan ko. I expected it to be Jippy pero hindi, when I opened the door si Danielle ang nakita ko. She was just in a white shirt and shorts. I faked my smile habang hinaharap siya. 

"Trisha." bulong niya, ewan ko ah pero she looked weak that moment. 

"Oh hi Elle, anong ginagawa mo dito? You wanna be my bestfriend?" paasar kong tanong. Huminga siya ng malalim habang tinitingnan ako na para bang nagmamakaawa siya. 

"Pwede ka bang makausap?" 

"Sure Danielle.. Come in." 

Pinapasok ko siya, she sat down sa sofa. Yumuko siya as I put both my hands on my waist. 

"What do you want us to talk about? The fact na ginagago mo si Dave? or the fact na ginagago mo si Dave? Pili lang, kasi either way, it's a story worth talking for." I started, just when I was about to say more words, Elle held my hand. 

"Trish please... Andito ako para makipag usap ng masinsinan sayo. Okay na kami ni Dave, dont make this any harder... Kung pinapagawa to ni Jippy sayo then please, you're so much better than this." sabi niya habang nakahawak pa rin sa kamay ko. 

SO MUCH BETTER? HA! 

"You're right Elle.. I'm so much better than this. Alam mo bakit? Dahil I am so much better than the girl who stays quiet habang tinitingnan kang niloloko ang lalakeng dapat kasama ko. Kung akala mo ikaw lang ang naghintay sa kanya. I WAITED FOR HIM TOO!" Sigaw ko sa kanya, yumuko siya ulit, halos di siya makatingin sakin.
