HATE THAT I LOVE YOU Ch. 24

“Nemesis?” maang na tanong ni Turing. “Sinong nemesis ang sinasabi ninyo?”

“Huwag ka nang magmaang-maangan, Turing,” I said. “We found this letter sa locker ni Buddy at – ”

“Ano?!”

“Kung maka-react ka naman diyan parang di dapat kay Maya ang loveletter.”

Nanlaki ang mga mata ni Turing.

“Don’t tell me...”

“Sorry, Maya, pero hindi nga para sa ‘yo ang loveletter na ito.”

“So, inaamin mong ikaw nga ang nagsulat nito?”

“Obvious ba, Eslove?” ani Shey. “Hindi naman siguro magiging ganyan ang reaksyon ni Turing kung para nga kay MM ang sulat.”

“Well, as if someone would actually give MM a love letter,” DD remarked that earned a punch from MM. He winced in pain. “Truth hurts huh?”

“Kapal ng mukha mong impakto ka!” MM shouted loud enough for the other customers to look at our direction. That made Buddy calmed down and apologized to the customers. “For your information, i had a hunch na hindi para sa akin ang sulat na ‘yan. I was guessing that it was meant for Buddy.”

“Huh? Bakit naman ako nasali diyan?”

“It made sense naman kung para sa ‘yo ang sulat eh. Afterall, you are the charming one.”

“Para nga ba kay Pretchie yun, ha, Turing?”

Biglang nag-iwas ng tingin si Turing.

“Sabihin mo na,” pangungumbinsi naman ni Kyra. “Huwag mong sabihing related ka kay Blet? O kayak ay Eslove?”

“I’m not.”

“Buddy has another admirer?”

“Kung mag-usap kayo, parang wala ako dito.”

Turing, sabihin mo na kasi.”


“Ah, ganun pala yun,” Buddy commented when Turing said her piece.

“Oo ganun yun,” napabuntung-hiningang sabi ng babae. “Lagot ako kay kuya Kean nito.”

“Hindi naman niya malalamang pinagkanulo mo siya eh.”

“Ipinagkanulo?” Blet repeated. “That’s one harsh word.”

“Ayeee!” Kyra squealed. “Lalo tuloy akong nae-excite sa ating mission.”

“You had a mission?” Jenny asked, as if wanting to confirm the information. “Can we help?”

“DD, can Jack and Jenny help?”

“Why are you asking me?”

“Oo nga,” ani Buddy. “Bakit ang impakto ang tinatanong ninyo e di nga natin sure kung tutulong ‘yan?”

“Ahm, MM...”

“Ano ‘yun Blet?”

“We have a practice tomorrow, ha. Baka nakalimutan mo na.”

MM gasped.

“Seems that she forgot!” DD sarcastically said. “Just because her Jack-Jack is around.”

“Just because your jealous, DD, don’t just drag Jack’s name.”

“Yeah right!”
