Lend Me Your Heart

10: Familiar Voice

"Bata pa lang kami magkakilala na kami ni Glenn." Ang sabi ni Tim while we're walking on our way home.

"What happened? Bakit parang ang cold nyo na sa isa't-isa?" I asked Tim na halatang humungkat ng isang pangit na nakaraan. But I don’t care, I still want to know it.

Pero sinagot lang nya ko ng isang pilit na tawa.

"Bakit nga?" Naiinis kong tanong.

"Ewan ko eh. Isang araw biglang di na kami nagpansinan."

"That's bullcrap Tim." I stated. I am so unsatisfied with his reason.

"Sabi ko na't ganyan ang reaksyon mo." He said.

"Bakit ba interesado ka?" Dugtong pa nya.

"Curious lang." Sagot ko naman.

Bzzzz bzzz

 

I looked at my phone.

New Message from 09**5673342

Binuksan ko naman agad ang message.

09**5673342: what the hell Tim
5:49pm

Cellphone nga pala ni Tim to. Who could possibly text him this way?

:Sino to?
5:50pm √

09**5673342: it's glenn

My heart skipped as I darted my eyes on the screen of the phone in my hands.

"Ano yan?" Tim suddenly asked.

Itinalikod ko sakanya ang cellphone nya.

"Nag sisikreto ka gamit ang cellphone ko? That's odd." He said.

"Eh kasi ayaw mong ibalik ang cellphone ko."

pag papalusot ko naman.

"Tinetext mo pa din si Glenn?"

"Hindi na."

Ngumisi naman sya na para bang hindi sya naniniwala sa sinabi ko.

"Sige kitakits bukas." Sabi ni Tim as he take a turn to his house.

Ako kumaway lang kahit nakatalikod na sya.

Pag akyat ko sa kwarto ko. Isinave ko agad ang number ni Glenn and I texted him using Tim's cellphone. Eto na talaga ang ginagamit kong cellphone simula nung nagkapalit kami ni Tim ng cellpone.

:what do you want?
8:13pm √

Glenn: what the hell are you doing with my girlfriend Tim?!
8:14pm

 

Pero di na ko nagreply. Lalo lang kasi akong nasasampal ng salitang 'MAS MAHAL KO SI JIREEN'

Then days passed by and I BECOME SO ANNOYED.

Ayokong maging masamang tao pero Jireen really annoys me and I hate this feeling. Everytime kasi na mapapatingin si Glenn sakanya bigla nyang kinakapitan ang lahat ng pwedeng kapitan kay Tim (except lang dun sa part na *censored*). 

But I can't really blame her. Pag kasi nandyan si Tim sa tabi mo there is a strong force that's telling you that you are safe and protected.

Dahil badtrip talaga ako. I went to the old tree at the back of the school where Jireen and I used to hang out ever since we became best friends. I sat there peacefully nang may biglang tumawag sakin.

A very familiar voice of a guy.

As I turn my head, I was expecting to see Tim pero nagulat ako as I saw Glenn standing right in front of me.
