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

Kabanata 28

The activity ended at 8:30. It was very enjoying naman but I just hate the fact na kasama ko pa si Ares sa isang group kanina. Kasama ko ngayon si Rhea at Shine, hindi na namin nakita ang tatlo pa naming kaibigan dahil medyo nagkagulo na nang natapos ang activity.

"Let's go, Nyx. Inaantok na ako." Rhea said at humikab pa ito.

"Susunod ako. Mauna na kayo ni Shine." I smiled and good thing, hindi na nagreklamo si Shine at Rhea. I know inaantok at pagod na sila.

I texted Ella na we should meet in a cottage na lang. I don't know why she's asking me to meet with her and I don't feel good about this.

I decided to calm myself down and face the sea, it was dark pero ang hangin na dumadampi sa balat ko ay napakalamig. Nagsisisi na ako kung bakit hindi ako nagdala ng jacket.

Minutes passed and my phone beeped, it was from Ella.

Elaine:

I'm on my way.

Nakaramdam agad ako ng kaba sa aking dibdib, I felt something would happen mamaya kaya I hope talaga na maguusap lang kami. Kahit na ganyan si Ella, alam kong mabait siya.

I know her very well, kami 'yong pinakaclose sa tropa namin. Since grade 7 ay kami na 'yong magkasama, we even shared a lot of memories together and hindi ako makapaniwala na dahil sa isang lalake ay nagkaganito na ang lahat.

"Nyx."

Napalingon agad ako sa boses na 'yon, Ella is walking towards me without any reaction on her face. Miss na miss ko na siya but hindi ko man lang naramdaman na miss niya din ako.

She really changed.

"Let's clear things up." Ella sighed at umakyat sa cottage. Nakatayo lamang kaming dalawa, balot na balot ng katahimikan at seryosong aura ang buong paligid.

"Yes, we should." I agreed. "I need to ask a question."

Hindi umimik si Ella she was just staring at me with a blank expression. I let out a loud sigh, hindi ko alam kung bakit ako kinakabahan.

"Paano naging kayo?" I asked, her face was still the same as before.

"He likes me and I like him." she smiled. "Then were together."

"Stop playing games, Ella." I groaned.

"Sorry, Nyx." she laughed softly, parang nanunuya. "Simula nang may nabuong landian sa inyo ay nagmessage sa akin si Ares. I really thought na magtatanong siya tungkol sa'yo but I was wrong."

"He asked me kung kumusta daw ako? anong ginagawa ko? kung kumain na ba ako? those questions made me think na hindi ikaw ang gusto niya. Then, one day hindi ko na alam ang nararamdaman ko. Kinikilig ako tuwing kausap si Ares." Ella smirked.
