We're still here outside.. doing nothing.
No, I guess my friend is doing something. She's waiting for someone. And I know who is it.
"Tama na nga 'yan, Magnum." I said in a monotone.
She looked at me.
"Bakit?"
I rolled my eyes.
I was about to stand to prepare our lunch when someone beeped outside.
"Oh my god, Ayan na siya!"
Napaayos ako ng upo nang makita ang sasakyan.
That Black Owner Jeep!
Kilalang-kilala ko kung sino ang may ari nyan.
Mas nakumpirama ko ang hinala nang lumabas mula sa driver seat ang tinutukoy ko.
Napasinghap ako sa nakita habang si Magnum naman ay pasimple akong kinurot sa tagiliran.
It's Gen. Again.
Nang hindi tumitingin sa amin. Kinuha niya mula sa likod ng sasakyan ang isang galon ng tubig.
Ano 'to?
Pinanindigan na ba talaga niya ang pagiging delivery man?!
He's wearing a white muscle shirt and a pair of maong shorts. I gulped and secretly glanced at myself. I'm wearing a maong shorts and a white V-neck shirt!
Magkapares pa talaga kami!
He's now walking towards us caring the gallon. He's so serious while doing it when he caught me looking at him!
I looked away and cleared my throat.
"Just put it there." Tinuro ko ang isang tabi at tumayo para kunin sa loob ang pinaglagyan no'n ng tubig pati na rin ang bayad.
Apat na galon nga pala ang babayaran ko.
Nang lumabas ako dala ang mga kinuha ay nag-uusap na sila ni Magnum kaya naman tumikhim ako para kunin ang atensyon nila.
Gen walked towards me to get the things in my hand. I handed those things to him and also our payment.
"Here's our payment for today... and for the last one." I smiled nervously. "Sorry... I forgot."
He put the gallons on the floor before he talks.
"It's okay,"
He licked his lips.
"But don't worry for the last one," he stared at me. "Ako na ang nagbayad."
My jaw dropped when I heard it.
Ano daw?
He paid it?!
I know that he's rich and that money was just nothing for him but... nakakahiya pa rin.
Siya na nga ang nagdala ng tubig dito, siya pa ang magbabayad?!
Magnum's chuckles filled my ears.
"Ayun naman pala, eh!" I looked at her ridiculously. "Binayaran naman pala ni Genesis."
Mabilis akong nagsalita.
"No! Babayaran ko parin."
Bahagyang natawa si Gen sa sinabi ko.
"Hindi na kailangan."
Magsasalita pa sana ako pero biglang umepal si Magnum. "Ano ka ba, Amaia! Huwag ka na kasing makulet! Maliit na halaga lang naman 'yon sa kanya!"
