"What did you say?"
Mizzy hurled all the cheesy fries she's
been chewing. May mga ibang pirasong
tumalsik sa mukha ng kaharap niya-si
Lee.
"Sorry. Sorry." Mizzy helped wipe Lee's
face. Ang iba pa nga ay napunta sa buhok
nito. But her face is still deadpan. Like
Lee kind of expected this reaction, and
even more. "Kasi naman frenny. Huwag
ka ngang nagbibiro ng ganyan." Mizzy
started laughing. But she realized Lee still
isn't even moving a muscle.
"Seryoso talaga?! Pupunta ka ng
reunion?!"
Lee lightly nodded.
Paano kung pumunta si Doc Odyssey?
Lee's eyes darted towards the floor.
Kakaiba pa rin epekto sa kanya ng
pangalang 'yun. She noted on how Mizzzy
has enunciated his name.
Doc Odyssey.
Instinctively, Lee smiled. Bagay na bagay
dito ang titulo bago ang pangalan nito.
Doctor.
Hindi man ito doktor ng medisina, but
he's a renowned scientist. A professor
with a couple of PHDs. Of course. Even
back then, He's already that 0dyssey
who had lots of potential kahit noong
bata pa sila. Just with his perspective and
Worldview in life, alam na alam ni Lee
dati pa lang na kaya nitong magtagumpay
sa buhay. And he did. He is a vision of
success today just like what he was
before. And even more.
Her ex-boyfriend is taking the world by
storm.
And people are not calling him Doc Lee
instead. She guessed it's his preference.
Dahil siguro ayaw na nitong ma-associate
sa kanya. O baka nga maswerte pa siya
kung ito ang dahilan. Even a little bit of
anger, she will be pleased. Dahil alam
niyang ngayon, wala na talaga silang
koneksyon. Maybe he didn't even care a bit about her.
Her first name is the same as his last
name. She's called Lee Gabriel, while he is
Simon Odyssey Lee.
They are both LEEs in their senior class.
And their common name is the very thing
that brought them together. But maybe
it's just a taboo now.
And everything is just a memory of her
happy youth.
