Chapter 8: Hindrance

April's P.O.V

Three days ago mula nang pag-uusap namin ni Evan and I must admit na nahihirapan akong mag-isip kung papatawarin ko ba siya o hindi. Three days ko narin syang hindi nakikita and today ipapadala na sa office yung mga natitirang equipments na inimbento nya so paniguradong nandoon sya.

I was wrong about that. Si Zoe ang naghatid ng mga equipments. Ang sabi ni Zoe ay nagbakasyon lang saglit si Evan but by tomorrow ay babalik ulit sya kay naman si Zoe muna ang nag handle ng mga transactions ni Evan ngayon. I was in the middle of talking to Zoe when my phone beeped. Sinagot ko kaagad ito nang makita kong si ate July iyon.

"Excuse me, let me just answer this call" paalam ko.

"Ok."

I backed up a bit bago sagutin ang tawag.

"Yes ate July?"

"My birthday is coming four days until now. Tumawag ako kase iimbitahin sana kita and you can invite Friah and Jeiana too"

Shit oo nga pala malapit na birthday ni ate July. I needed to find some gift for her.

"Yeah sure ate. Anong oras?"

"4:30 pm tapos may night party pa after nun"

"Ok."

"Sige bye for now I still have a lots of work to do, Labya!"

"Love you too ate." i said the call hanged up.

Binalikan ko na si Zoe and all of the equipments are already on the designated places. I signed the transaction sheet bago sila umalis. After that dumeretso narin ako sa kabilang building para mag shift as a nurse since wala naman na akong paperworks na kailangang tapusin.

After kong mag shift as nurse ay dumeretso ako sa mall para bumili ng ireregalo ko kay ate. Gusto ko na kasing tapusin lahat ng gawain ko bago ako mag chill. After five boutiques ay nakahanap narin ako finally ng ireregalo kay ate. It was a silver necklace with a small tiara pendant na may konting diamonds at sa likod nun ay ang pangalan ni ate July. Ipinalagay ko iyon sa box bago ako dumeretso sa national bookstore para bumili ng materials para sa card na gagawin ko knowing ate July, she prefers a handwritten card that any other expensive gifts. Sabi kase nya mas galing daw iyon sa puso at mas naaappreciate nya daw iyon.

Ate July is a rich woman but never fails to be a humble person. She uses her money really wise and she's really a wife material girl that why her boyfriend never left her side. Like seriously? Who wants to hurt a sweet innocent humble girl? Bilis sabihin nyo ipapasalvage ko. Charot!

After buying all the things that I need umuwi narin ako. I was too tired para gumawa pa ng letter kaya siguro bulas nalang ako gagawa nun.

It was a big relief when I lay down on my bed. It felt like all my tiredness we're gone. Habang nakahiga ay hindi ko namalayang nakatulog na pala ako.

I woke up 2:00 am in the morning at nakaramdam talaga ako nang matinding gutom. Bumaba ako sa kusina at kumuha ng isang cup noodles. Pinuno ko iyon ng mainit na tubig bago umakyat ulit sa kwarto dala dala ang cup at isang bote ng tubig. I sat down on my study table at ginawa ang card ko para kay ate july habang hinihintay ko na maluto ang noodles ko.
