CHAPTER 15: UNPLANNED (Part 2)

Ano kayang binabalak nitong si Jairus? Saan kami pupunta? Saan nya ako dadalhin?

Sumakay na kami sa kotse nya. I was just wearing white shirt (yung I love NY), skinny jeans and sneakers. (Yes, ganyan ako kasimple ). Ang tahimik talaga nitong si Jairus. I had no clue sa mga iniisip o gusto nyang gawin. Nakakakaba pero may thrill din naman. Pero kasi, I just met him last night. Oo nga at gusto nya bumawi pero ano ba talagang balak nya?

We're already traveling at parang papunta itong South. Nagtaka naman ako. At in fairness, ang bilis nya din magpatakbo. Alam nya ang mga pasikot-sikot sa Manila kaya hindi kami nata-traffic. I cut off the silence dahil hindi na ako mapakali.


"Uhm, Jairus, saan ba tayo pupunta?"

"Malalaman mo din. Relax." And he smiled. Ang cute ng smile nya.


Then suddenly, somebody is calling on my phone. It's my Mom.


"Ma?"

"Pam, asan na kayo?"

"Huh? Anong kayo? You know about this, Ma?"

"Of course, I do. Nagpaalam sa akin si Jairus kanina. He called me before he went to your apartment."

"Why didn't you tell me?" Napansin ko si Jairus na medyo natatawa.

"Because he told me he will surprise you. He'll make it up to you daw eh."

"So alam nyo rin po kung saan kami pupunta ngayon?"

"No. Nagpaalam lang din siya sa akin na may pupuntahan din daw kayo. I don't know where."

"Okay, Mom. Then why did you call?"

"To check on you. Ikaw talaga, Pam. Oh sige na, just text me na lang tonight, okay? Take care. I love you."

"Okay, Mom. Bye. I love you, too."


Then I put my attention to Jairus. Nakakahiya kasi ang ingay ko habang kausap ko Mom ko.


"Sorry, Jairus. Ang ingay ko ata eh. Sorry."

"That's okay. Moms are really like that. Ganyan din si Mama."

"Ahh." Napa-smile na lang ako. Nahihiya kasi akong mag-open ng conversation. Baka pati kung ano na naman ang masabi ko at magalit na naman siya. Baka ako pa itong kailangang bumawi. Haha!


As he continued driving for nearly an hour now, ngayon ko lang napansin na nasa SLEX na pala kami. Medyo bored kasi ako at naglalaro lang ako ng Angry Birds sa iPhone ko. Ayaw ko naman siyang tanungin kung saan kami pupunta dahil baka makulitan na siya sa akin. Hay! Nakakaramdam na ako ng antok. Hanggang sa lumiko kami sa Santa Rosa Exit papuntang Enchanted Kingdom.

Sa isip ko, "Bongga naman ito. Sa EK pa kami pumunta. Tagal ko na ding hindi nakakapunta dito. Naeexcite ako. " Patago akong ngumingiti dahil sa excitement. Haha!


After 10 minutes, "We're here. Tara."

Bababa na sana ako until he opened the car's door for me. Gentleman siya pero ang suplado ng dating. Haha! May mga factors kasi na parang napipilitan lang siya maging ganito dahil kailangan nya bumawi. Ewan ko lang din. Let's see kung anong mangyayari habang nandito kami.

Siya na ang pumila para bumili ng entrance tickets at syempre, libre nya daw ako. Mag-aabot na kasi sana ako ng pera nang bigla nyang sinabi na siya na daw ang bahala. Feeling ko tuloy ang swerte ko dahil makakapag-enjoy ako sa EK nang libre. Hahaha!

Pumasok na kami sa loob. Natutuwa akong makarating ulit sa lugar pero inaalala ko din kung paano ito ie-enjoy dahil masyadong awkward ata kasama itong si Jairus. Anyway, bahala na.


***JAIRUS' POV***


Hmmm... Paano ba ako babawi kay Pam? Hindi ko pa kasi alam kung ano ang mga trip nya kaya dito ko siya dinala. Sa bagay, ito na rin yung way para magkakilala kami ng ayos, para maiba na ang impression namin sa isa't-isa. Our first meeting is not that good kasi. Hay! Goodluck!

CHAPTER SIXTEEN: GETTING TO KNOW YOU

It's been a wonderful day with Jairus. I never thought it would be fun to be with him after that very awkward meeting and first impressions last night. Actually, masasabi ko talagang, he did it and nakabawi siya. In my part, I think nakabawi din naman ako dahil hanggang ngayon, tawa pa rin siya ng tawa sa mga korny kong jokes. And oh, I bet he also enjoyed the rides. His first times and my first times.

It's 5 minutes before 8 o'clock in the evening at nandito kami ngayon sa may Victoria Park Zone, malapit sa may gitna, sa may Carousel, kumakain ng popcorn, nagbibiruan at nagkukwentuhan. Hindi ko akalain na madaldal din pala siya at may sense of humor. Ibang iba sa nakilala kong Jairus kagabi.

Pagkatapos ng kanyang tila walang katapusan na pagtawa, bigla siyang natahimik at parang naging seryoso.


"Alam mo ba, nung bata ako, ayaw ko sa mga amusement parks."

"Bakit naman?"

"I'm afraid of heights, clowns, mascots. Mukha talaga akong loner dati. Parang ayaw ko maging masaya. Kaya tingnan mo, ang dami kong first time na rides ngayon."

"Talaga? So when did you overcome your fears?"

"Kanina lang. Habang nagda-drive ako. Inisip kong dapat ma-overcome ko na ang fears ko."


Nabigla ako sa sinabi nya.


"Buhat kasi nang mamatay si Ciara, napag-isip-isip ko, mas nakakatakot pala talagang mawala yung taong mahal mo. Higit sa lahat, mas nakakatakot maiwanan ang mga mahal mo. Pero okay na yun, naka-move on na ako. Kaya heto, inenjoy ko na lang ang araw na ito. Buti na lang din, dumating ka sa buhay ko."


Mas nabigla ako sa parteng ito ng sinabi nya.


"Ha?"

"Kasi kung wala ka..."


Natutulala na ako. Ano ba itong mga sinasabi nya?


"...hindi ako pupunta dito at hindi ko mao-overcome yung fears ko kasi wala akong kasama. Alangan namang mga barkada kong lalaki di ba? Ang awkward naman nun kung sila lalo pa't hindi naman nila alam kung anong fears ko sa amusement parks. Baka maabuso pa ako ng mga yun sa pagpapalibre."


Hmmm... Okay, that gave me sweats. Akala ko kung ano na. (Hey, I'm not expecting anything, okay? :p )


"Hahaha! Oo nga naman. Well, thank you for bringing me here, too. At least, I'll be able to relieve my stress."

I saw him smiled at me. "It's kind of blessing in disguise, don't you think? It's like, we both need this break."

"Oo nga eh. If not because of that really awkward first impressions last night...and our parents."

"Yes, our parents... You know what, Pam?"

"What?

"I enjoyed this day with you. Really."

"Me too." Then we smiled at each other.

"So, we're friends now?"

"Sure. "


The day ended with the fireworks above us. Then he drove me home and said goodnight.





"Then that was it? Wala man lang, you know."

"What are you talking about, Juliet?" Juliet and I have been talking on the phone, 30 minutes after Jairus left.

"C'mon Pam, you know what I'm talking about! The kiss! Your first kiss!"

"Juliet, ano ka ba? We just met yesterday, we went out today and we're just friends! I'm not like those American girls you see in movies, okay? Kilala mo ako! At alam mong nasa phase pa ako ng pag-move on ngayon. We both know that Dennis just... left. And I'm trying to.."

"I know! I know! That's why Jairus came into the picture! We may not know but he might be the one for you."

"That's impossible. And I don't think that will happen."

"Why not? Siya na mismo ang nagsabi na parang blessing in disguise ang nangyari. Don't you think it's a sign?"

"That's really impossible. He still loves her."

"Who? Ciara? But she's dead, right? Hello girl? We're still young and you should enjoy life, especially kapag may mga ganyang pagkakataon. Puro stress kasi iniisip mo. Maybe this is the time na kaya dumating si Jairus sa buhay mo ay para maging masaya ka. You always deserve it."

"Pero ayaw kong mag-assume. It might end up painful again."

"I'm not telling you to assume. Just let it flow, okay? I know you know what to do. Okay? Don't stress out and don't overlook at things agad. This is just the beginning."

"Okay. Thanks, Juliet."

"No problem, dear. Let's have some sleep now. We still have classes tomorrow. And I know you're tired, too. Goodnight bestie! I love you!"

"Okay. Goodnight. I love you. Bye!"


Maybe Juliet is right but I don't want to think of it, at the meantime.




The next day...




I'm ready to go to school until... "Good morning, Pam! I'll take you to school today, is that okay?"

He was already outside my apartment when I was about to go. Makakatanggi pa ba ako?
