Marionne's POV
HIS LIPS formed to a smile. Kahit nakauwi na siya sa kanilang bahay ay hindi parin maalis sa kanyang isip ang mukha ng babae. Marahas niyang ipinilig ang kanyang ulo, bakit niya ba iniisip ang babaeng yun. "Maybe you're crushing on her." Anang maliit na tinig sa kanyang isip.
"No way."
Pabagsak siyang umupo sa sofa. "No she's just a simple person, and girls like her are not my type. Keep that on your mind." Inihilamos niya ang palad sa kanyang mukha. "But you can't deny that she's very beautiful, and she caught your attention." Pagsabat ng kanyang isip, he frowned.
"Talking to yourself huh." Ani ng isang baritonong boses.
"What?" Aniya.
"Why? Aren't you?" The man wiggles his eyebrows.
"How can you say so." Taas kilay na tanong niya.
"My man, don't deny it. And I can see it in your facial expressions."
"Ok I am, happy?" Then he rolled his eyes.
"So how's your quality time with your friends?" The man asked.
"It's fine." Marionne said.
"Oh really? Parang hindi naman."
"Of course it is." He frowned.
"Then why are you frowning?" Anito na nakataas ang kilay.
"It's nothing ok. Tsk." Tatalikuran niya na sana ito pero mayroon pa itong sinabi.
"It is because of girls? Or a girl?"
Nag isang linya ang kanyang mga kilay. "No of course not, leave me alone Akhiro. And please stop bothering me." Tumaas ng bahagya ang kanyang boses. "Tsk, this is not about that girl. Oh wait, why am I thinking of her again. Arghh this is so unbelievable." Pagkausap niya sa sarili at umiling-iling siya.
"Woah, my man can you just lower your voice. And bakit ka umiiling? Kinakausap mo nanaman ba ang sarili mo?" Ani Akhiro habang nakangisi.
"Can you please stop smirking like an idiot, it's so annoying." Pagkasabi nun ay tinalikuran niya na ang kaibigan.
Narinig niya pa ang malakas na pagtawa nito. Pumasok na siya sa kanyang silid at padapa na nahiga sa kanyang kama. "I will find you, wherever you are hot chick." Marionne said in his mind.
Tinawagan niya ang kaibigan niyang si Kirk.
"Hello bro what's up?"
"I need your help."
"Wait what? You? Need my help? Are you freakin' kidding me?" Kirk said while laughing.
"What? Are you gonna help me or not?" He said in irritated tone.
"Alright bro calm down. what kind of help?" Kirk voice is in serious mode.
"I need you to find this person for me." Then he send her photo to Kirk
"She's quite pretty huh." Kirk said.
"I know right. Go find her, by the way how much is your service?" He said haughtily.
"Nah bro, it's for free."
Marionne is quite surprised. "Woah, anong nakain mo?"
"Wala, pero ikaw yata yung merong nakain na kung ano. Hindi ka naman naghahabol sa babae, but now look at you, handa kang gumastos para lang sa isang babae. Wow bro, just wow." Mahabang litanya nito.
"Whatever dimwit, just call me if you find her." Hindi niya na hinintay ang sagot nito at pinatay na ang tawag.
It's been a days since she saw that hot chick, pero kahit ni isang tawag or text man lang ay wala siyang natanggap mula Kay Kirk. "I wonder why I can't stop thinking about you. This is b*llsh*t." He combed his hair using his long fingers frustratedly. "No, I'm not gonna give up on you hot chick. I'll make sure that we'll see each other again." Ipinilig niya ang kanyang ulo.
Bored na bored na si Marionne kaya naman naisipan niyang tawagan si Prince.
"Hello bud, napatawag ka yata."
"Where are you? Can I come over to your house?"
"Nasa date pa ako bud. Sure you can come over later."
"Date? With who? Is it Jashleen?"
"No I'm with Jasmine."
"Who the h*ck is Jasmine? Bago nanaman?" Hindi niya mapigilan magtaas ng boses.
"Arghh I don't know why I'm friends with him. What a freakin' womanizer. This man is so unbelievable." Hindi niya mapigilang mapamura sa isip.
"Uhm yeah?" Prince answered.
"Sh*t bud, you're such a womanizer. Kada isang buwan nagpapalit ka ng babae." Disappointment is visible in his tone of voice.
Ibinaba niya na ang tawag at lumabas ng bahay, naisipang niyang puntahan ang kanyang pinsan na si Rupert. Ngunit habang nagmamaneho ay may nakita siyang babae.
Nakatalikod ito sa kanya kaya hindi niya maaninag ang mukha nito. But she looked familiar, that brown hair, the curve of her body, it reminded him of that woman. So he decided na bumaba ng sasakyan, pababa na sana siya ng makita niya si Kirk na lumapit dito. Kinausap ito ng kanyang kaibigan at pagkatapos ay umalis na ang dalawa. "What's the meaning of this, is Kirk playing with me? What an a**hole. You'll regret this Kirk."
Nang humarap na ang babae, at ng maaninag niya ang mukha nito ay mas lalo siyang nainis kay Kirk. "The nerve of that guy to play with me."
Pinasibad niya ang kanyang sasakyan papunta sa direksyon ni Kirk, he nearly hit him but he doesn't care. Kung hindi lang ito naiiwas ni hot chick. "What a traitor." Sinipat niya ang reaksyon ng dalawa, nakita niya ang pagkainis sa mukha ng babae. Habang si Kirk naman ay walang reaksyon.
Cane's POV
Nakaupo siya sa isang bench habang hinihintay ang kanyang boy best friend na si Kirk. Maya-maya pa ay natanaw niya na ito, mabilis naman itong lumapit sa kanya.
"Hey Cane." Anito.
"Hello, bakit gusto mo akong makausap?" Aniya.
"I have something to tell you. I have this one friend asking for my help." Panimula nito.
"Huh? Why are you saying this to me?" Kunot noo niyang tanong dito.
"I believe you already met him."
Ipinakita nito ang isang larawan, candid shot ito ng isang lalake na may pulang buhok. Nanlaki ang kanyang mata at umawang ang kanyang mga labi ng makilala. "Si ginger man." Nagtataka siyang napatingin sa kaibigan.
"So what kind help is he asking?"
"For me to find you." Nakangising sabi ni Kirk.
"What? But why?"
"I think you caught his attention."
Sasagot na sana si Cane nang biglang may rumaragasang sasakyan ang nakita niyang papunta sa direksyon nila, especially sa direction ni Kirk na ngayo'y nauunang naglalakad sakanya. Mabuti nalang at mabilis ang kanyang reflexes kaya naman naiiwas niya agad si Kirk. Naiinis na tiningnan niya ang papalayong kotse. Nakita niyang may nakalagay na Shikichi sa likod ng sasakyan.
"I think it's better kung umuwi nalang muna tayo." Aniya.
"Yeah I think so too."
