Maybe, One Day (The Six Ladies Series #1)

Kabanata 25

After a long talk, sa wakas ay dumating na din ang bus. Tatlong bus ang nasa tapat namin. The teachers has their own megaphone dahil nga marinig ng lahat ang instruction na ibibigay nila.

"The first and second section will occupy the first bus. The third and fourth on the second bus at ang last section, together with the teachers in charge will occupy the last bus. Are we clear?" sigaw ng isang teacher na hula ko ay adviser ng third section. Since, we belong sa first section ay nasa unang bus kami sumakay.

"Let's go." excited na sambit ni Rhea, she grabbed my arm at pumasok na kami sa loob ng bus.

Nang nakapasok na kami sa loob ng bus, every seats were good for two persons. Hinila agad ako ni Rhea sa pwesto na gusto niya.

I told her na doon umupo sa may malapit sa bintana because every time I travel, I really like to look at the places and scenes from the outside. Nakita na din namin sina Shine at Patrice na magkasama din, nasa likod lang pala namin sila.

"Sina Danica at Ella?" I asked Rhea.

"Nasa likod ata nina Shine at Patrice, tignan ko." sabi ni Rhea. She stood up from her seat at kumunot ang noo niya nang umupo ito ulit.

"Iba katabi ni Danica." Rhea told me.

Upon hearing those words, nagulat ako dahil kakapasok lang pala ni Ella sa bus and beside her was Ares. I felt my heart was being stabbed by knives, nakita ko pa na dala-dala ni Ares ang suitcase ni Ella.

Ella is such a lucky girl.

Hindi naman ako nakita ni Ares but to my surprise, umupo sila sa tapat ng upuan namin ni Rhea. Ares is also beside the window. I quickly looked away and pretended to look outside the window.

The bus started moving at hindi pa din ako makatingin sa harap ko, kahit likod lamang ang nakikita ko ay ramdam ko na naguusap sila. Halos nawalan ako ng paghinga nang nakita kong sumandal si Ella sa balikat ni Ares.

I just witnessed one of the most sweetest thing that a couple can do.

"Nyx." Rhea poked my shoulder, napatingin naman ako sa kanya. Her eyes were a bit wide when she faced me, tumingin ulit siya sa harapan at kumunot ang noo nang lumingon sa akin.

"Let's not talk about this, Rhea." I said in a calm and low voice.

Umiling si Rhea. "Ipaliwanag mo. Tell me, Nyx."

"Rhea, wala naman akong kailangan ipaliwanag." I sighed.

"May nangyari ba sa party?" she asked. Natigilan ako sa tanong niya. Rhea is matured and observant, madali niyang malalaman kung nagsisinungaling ka ba o hindi.

"I told you Rhea, wala nga." I defended.
