Nobody Ever Made Me Feel This Way

Chapter 11

"Asan si James?"

"Tulog." Sagot ni Nadine kay Julie habang patuloy itong nagluluto sa kusina ng suite ni Julie.

While working part time as a waitress at Stilts, Nadine was also a culinary student. Kailangan lang talaga nito kumayod dahil hindi naman ganun ka well-off ang pamilya nito.

"Sabagay. Napagod siguro mag drive." Ani Julie habang umuupo sa kanyang dining table.

Nadine finished plating the beef broccoli and placed it on the kitchen table while Julie stood up and grabbed the rice.

"Hindi ba natin gigisingin si James?" Tanong ni Nadine.

Julie shrugged. "Patulugin pa muna natin. Kapag napahaba gigisingin ko na kawawa naman baka mangayayat." She kidded.

Tumawa din si Nadine.

They started eating.

"So about earlier..." Simula ni Nadine habang nakatingin kay Julie Anne.

Hindi kasi natuloy ang usapan nilang dalawa dahil pumasok na si James sa kusina.

Julie sighed as she took a bite out of some broccoli.

"I really don't know."

"Girl hindi ka head and shoulders." Pang-aasar sa kanya ni Nadine.

Mahinang natawa si Julie. "I mean, I'm really attracted to him, there's no question about that."

Nadine chuckled, her eyes widening in a knowing manner. "Girl, kung papaano nagespadahan ang dila niyong dalawa, sure ako na attracted talaga kayong dalawa."

"Naddie!" Julie gasped.

"What?" Nadine said innocently. "Nakita ko e ano magagawa ko. Nakalimutan niyo ata na may rest area doon sa VIP area."

Julie sighed and shook her head. "Anyways. Attracted ako sa kanya but I'm not sure if the two of us can start a relationship, not that he's asked me or anything." Aniya. Isa pa yun. Sure siya para kay Elmo, tawag ng laman lang din iyon.

"E ikaw kaya ang magtanong sa kanya?" Nadine pointed out as she continued eating.

"Luh, no way." Julie said as she finished with her food. "Saka I think it was a one time thing. Nakainom lang kami pareho nun." Hindi niya alam kung sino kinukumbinsi niya eh. Siya ba o si Nadine.

Bilang sagot ay ngumiti lang sa kanya si Nadine na nakakaloko habang umiinom mula sa kanyang juice.

"Tseh." She said.

Mahinang tumawa si Nadine. "O bakit? Wala naman ako sinasabi."

"Hay nako you make sama with my twin kakajirits kayo."

Mas lalo lang natawa si Nadine. She then gestured as she pointed at Julie as if she was making a point. "Ayan girl isa pa yan, may tawagan kayo kakaloka!"

"Friends have tawagans naman." Julie said as she grabbed the plates and placed it on the sink. Saka siya bumunot ng saging sa may fruit bowl. She placed one in front of Nadine and started eating one herself.

"E bakit puro ako ang topic? Why don't we talk about you and my twin hmm?"

"O bakit? We're friends."

Julie smirked. Gantihan niya kaya. "Ows?"

"Nakakainis ka." Irap ni Nadine.

Mas lalo natawa si Julie.

"I think we're the same Naddie pero yung sa akin kasi ako lang...kayong dalawa ng aking twin sarap i-umpog yung heads niyo to isa't isa."

Magsasalita pa sana si Nadine nang biglang may nagdoorbell sa suite.
