Sam’s Point of View
“Say what?!” naiinis na tanong ko. Tama ba ang pagkakaintindi ko? Ang name ni Kyle at word na bodyguard ay magkasama sa isang sentence?!
“Calm down, will you?” Trish forced me to sit.
“Ano ulit ang sinabi mo, Lise?” I gritted my teeth.
She had the nerve to roll her eyes on me. “Si Kyle ang magiging bodyguard mo from now on, well, until mahuli ang nagpadala sayo ng death threats.”
“Nabagok talaga ang utak mo pagkakalaglag mo sa bangin.”
“Grabe siya, oh,” sarcastic na sagot nito.
“Sam...” simula ni Marie na ever so calm and reasonable. “Be reasonable.” See? Ako pa ang hindi reasonable ngayon.
“We don't want to take this lightly. We know we stepped on the line, that we decided this on your behalf...”
“Behind my back is the right term,” I cut Marie.
I am not unreasonable, it's just that, I am on my own. I don't have to depend on someone else.
“Samantha. Hindi madaling makakita ng kaibigan sa ICU,” seryosong sagot ni Diane.
“Hindi na namin kaya makakita ng kaibigan sa ICU,” diin ni Diane. Naihilamos ko ang kamay ko sa mukha.
“Look. This is not new to me, okay? I eat death threats. That's all they are, threats. Don't take it seriously.”
“Sam… We saw your point,” simula ni Kaye.
“Well, thank you very much. Now that you saw my point, let's stop this craziness.”
Umiling si Kaye “But you have to understand, you are more than just a friend to us. You are a sister to us. It's not only us girls that decided this.”
“Oh my God. Annalisa, ano ba ‘tong ginawa mo?” nasapo ko ang mukha ko habang nakaupo.
“Sam.” Lise hugged me. “I saw how you cried for me. I saw how you all cried for me. I don't want to experience that. And I don't want them to experience it again.”
“May iba pa bang choice maliban kay Kyle?”
“Well, pwede rin si Ace,” sagot ni Marie.
“Oh, no.” Umiling ako. “He is a walking nightmare. Baka akalain ng iba naghahamon kami ng away.”
“Mabait naman si Kyle,” sagot ni Marie
Uh-huh.
“Tahimik pa,” dagdag ni Lise.
“Ganda kaya ng katawan no’n. As in! Eight-pack iyong abs,” segunda ni Diane.
“Nakita mo?” tanong ni Kaye.
“Oo naman. Mag-gym ka minsan. Yummy kaya,” Diane replied.
“Akala ko ba si Tristan ang crush mo?” tanong ni Trisha.
“Excuse me, Trish. Iyong kakambal mo ang may crush sa akin.”
“It will be alright, Sam. Please, for me? Can you do this for my peace of mind?” Lise whispered to me.
What to do?
