Chapter 18

#DFF18

"Thank you." I said. I'm in the coffee shop nearby my condo, since maaga pa? Walang tao. Besides, hindi naman O.A ang mga tao rito sa lugar na 'to, kapag nakikita na nila ako. I decided to go here.

I sighed. I'm planning everything. Gusto ko na talagang tapusin 'yung sa'min ni Troy. Nakokonsensya na talaga ako sa ginagawa ko sa kaniya. Lalo na last week. When he went to my unit and damn! Lumabas ako ng gan'un ang itsura, baliktad ang suot at magulo ang buhok. Then I lied. Hindi ko na kaya, sobra na akong kinakain ng konsensya ko, I can't even sleep well.

I look at my phone, it's flashing Troy's name. I didn't answer it. I just ignore it. Then moments later he send me a message.

From Troy:

Can we meet?

I hit a reply.

To Troy:

Is that important? I can't. We have a shoot today.

I put down my phone. Saka sinapo ang noo ko. I'm not making an excuse. Totoo naman, may shooting kami ngayon, in batangas. Sa private resort nila Frost.

I waited for his reply, pero mukhang wala na siyang balak. I went out to the coffee shop at naglakad na pabalik ng condo ko.

I frown when a black car stop behind me. I don't know who's inside.

"Ru," I said. N'ung bumaba 'yung wind shield. Woah. New car or ngayon lang talaga siya gumamit ng kotse niya?

He went out of his car. "Hi," he greeted.

I showed him a smile and greeted him back. "Hi."

Binigay ko sa kaniya 'yung hawak kong extra coffee. Regular costumer na ako kaya, kaya minsan nagbibigay sila sa'kin ng freebies or anything na promo nila.

"Napadpad ka rito?" I asked him. You know what? Gwapo si Rupert, he's manly. Pero minsan? Sa sobrang tahimik at bihira niyang makipag-usap? Nagmumukhang bakla na siya sa paningin ko. Yeah, sa'kin lang naman. Sanay kasi ako na ang mga lalaki, kung hindi madaldal, maharot o kaya malandi. May papansin rin, one of the best example is Jayden.

"I don't know." Natawa ako sa sinabi niya. He don't know? Meron ba n'un?

"Okay, I'll go ahead, Ru. I have to packed my things parin." I was about to leave him, but he held my hand.

"What?"

"Sakay ka na," Hindi naman na gan'un kalayo 'yung condo ko from here. Tatawid lang ako, e.

I shooked my head. "No need."

"But I insists." Wala na akong nagawa.

Nakisabay ako kay Rupert, na sobrang lapit lang naman. Halos dalawang minuto lang nasa tapat na ako ng condo.

I knocked his wind shield. "Thanks, Ru." He just nod his head and leave.

Napaka weird talaga ng lalaking 'yun, I dunno. But for me? Rupert is really weird.

-------

"Okay, good take!" I rolled my eyes, nakakaasar. Ang arte ni Direk. Naka ilang cut na, hindi parin daw namin makuha yung scenes. The hell! Baka kalbuhin ko 'tong bakla na 'to, e.

"Thank god, tapos narin. Hindi man lang tayo pinagpahinga," Reklamo ko. Yeah. I really want to kick Direk's face, swear! Why, gosh! Biruin niyo, matapos ng ilang oras na biyahe papuntang batangas, nag-set up lang for the scene. Then after, nag shoot na kaagad. Can you believe that?

I quickly glance at my wrist watch. It's already 11 in the evening.

"Thanks," I said. Rupert gave me a coffee.

"K." I shooked my head. Gusto ko ng bumalik sa manila. Nalulungkot ako, walang Frost. Yeah. Kami kasi ang kailangang kuhanan rito sa batangas. While, Frost, Jayden and Aiden is doing their part somewhere in manila. Ngayon lang kami nagkahiwalay, madalas na sama-sama kami kapag may taping or shooting.

I put down the coffee on the table and sighed. I miss Frost, damn! Nakakainis! Bakit ganito, halos wala pang isang araw kaming hindi kami nagkikita, oras palang. But I seriously, miss him. Badly. I want to hug him, kiss him. Okay, baliw na yata ako.

"Kayo ba ni Frost," He said before sipping his coffee. I almost choke.

May alam ba si Rupert sa'min? Did his friend knew about us?

"Huh?" Was all I managed to say. Urgh!

"Last day, I saw you with Frost. You went out of his car an---" I cover his mouth, luminga-linga pa ako sa paligid. Baka may makarinig. Ang alam nilang lahat, kami pa ni Troy, which is right. But I don't loved him, anymore.

"H'wang kang maingay, Rupert." He removed my hand. Tapos tinusok niya 'yung noo ko. What the!

"I won't say anything, but Zenny potato. Before you enter into a new relationship, make sure. You're done with Troy. He'll be hurt. You should tell him the truth." I rolled my eyes. I know, he don't need to remind me of that.

"Can you keep this for the meantime? " He shrugged hs shoulder. What? Bakit kibit balikat lang? He should well ateast, say yes and nodded his head. But shrugged his shoulder? Ano 'yun?

"Rupert."

He was about to say something but Direk call him. Asar!

I didn't bother to asked him, instead. I dial Frost number. Damn! Ilang ring na yata pero hindi niya sinasagot. Sa inis ko, I off my phone and put it inside of my bag.

"Zendrea." Bored na tinignan ko si Leigh. My P.A . Hingal na hingal siya. Saan ba siya galing? Sa tuktok ng taal.

"Breathe, Leigh. I can wait."

"Si Zendro, tumawag sa'kin." I arched my brows.

"And?"

"Malapit na raw siya rito, pinaalam ka na niya kay Direk, tapos narin naman 'yung part mo rito, nagpapack-up narin." Okay. Hindi ko maintindihan. Why would Zendro go here? I know, his in cebu. Nandoon siya since last two months pa.

"Bakit raw?" She shooked her head. Wala raw siyang alam, since hindi daw ako matawagan, sa kaniya na tumawag si Zendro.

May nangyari ba?

I turn on my phone. And viola, so many missed calls and message.

"What?"

"Where are you? Uuwi na tayo."

I rolled my eyes. "Sa set, why?"

"Mom and dad is here, with Keira." And with that. Nanggigil kaagad ako. Keira. Oh, how many years did I didn't hear that freaking name!

I end the call and find Zendro. Pumasok kaagad ako sa bago niyang sasakyan. Ang gastos talaga ni Zendro.

"Kailan pa sila nandito? Ang akala ko hindi na babalik 'yang bitch na 'yan." said with irritated tone. Parang ina-allergy ako kapag naririnig ko 'yung pangalan niya.

My half sister. Dad's daughter from some freaking random girl. At first? Mom was really mad for knowing that dad impregnante err, well. I don't want to remember our past.

"What will you do?"

"Anything. Siguro nagpa-uto na naman si Dad sa kaniya, that freaking bitch. Urgh!" Kumukulo talaga ng sobra ang dugo ko sa kaniya.

Zendro stop the car for a moment. "She's not a bad person, Zen. She's still part of our family. Keira is our sister."

Well. I don't treat her as my family. She's not even part of our fucking family. I mean it.
