Chapter 10: Camayan Beach
JASPHER'S POV
Hinabol ko si Fajra hanggang sa makalabas ng hotel. Kanina ko pa siya tinatawag pero hindi siya lumilingon.
"Come on love, talk to me!"
Finally she stops!
Humarap siya sa akin nang walang ekspresyon ang mukha.
"Speak."
I took a deep breath before speaking.
"Love, it's not what you think okay, I didn't sleep with her, I didn't even know that she's there."
Argh! Sana maniwala sya!
"Tell the truth."
"H-Huh?"
"Explain why you lied to me."
*lunok*
"O-Oh, k-kase n-natatakot akong i-iwan mo ako kapag nalaman mong may ibang babae dun sa kwarto."
Nakatungong paliwanag ko.
"What happened last night? What happened to the two of you last night? Why's she in your room? Why's she hiding inside the cabinet? Why are you look so startled when she sees me?"
Dirediretsong tanong niya.
"Love, last night I was so tired and sleepy so I drop myself on the bed and didn't bother to look around if someone is owned the room. And when the morning came, hindi ko ineexpect na may magbubuhos sa akin ng tubig na malamig, kaya nabasa ako. Sabi niya, akala daw nya yung isa sa kaibigan niya kaya bigla na lang siyang nangbubuhos. And she didn't even look if ako nga yung kaibigan nya kaya nagulat din sya na iba ang ang nabuhusan niya."
Mahabang paliwanag ko.
I hope this time, she'll believe me.
Tumango tango lang siya.
"Sya di ba yung classmate mo na nakita natin kahapon? Am I right?"
"Y-Yeah. But love, I swear nothing's going on between us."
"Why, did I say that there's going on between you two?"
"A-Ahh hehe, w-wala naman love, so bati na tayo?"
Ang tanga mo trev! T*ngna ka!
"Haha! Nag away ba tayo?"
"Ugh, n-nevermind that love, let's just forget that."
She chuckled and I did the same too.
The one thing that I love from her was having patience. She understands a lot of things that not every girls do because of jealousy.
"Love, let's go to Camayan Beach Resort." Akit ko sa kanya.
"Huh? Why so sudden, love?"
"Nothing, I just want to make it up to you." I shyly said.
Haup ka trev! Ang bakla mo!
I heard her chuckled slightly. "Okay fine, basta libre mo ah."
"Hahahaha deal!"
ATHEENA'S POV
"HOY! Dyosang Bato! Ano yung naririnig kong ingay dito sa kwarto mo ah?!"
Anu ba yan! Umagang umaga imbes na tilaok ng manok ang maririnig ko, bunganga ni Bett ang sumalubong saken.
Pumunta sila ni Cil dito sa kwarto ko nang may marinig daw na ingay.
Psh!
"Sya nga pala Ath, kagabi may babae na nakiusap na makishare ng room. Actually, dalawa sila eh, kayalang hindi ko masyadong nakita kung sino yung kasama nya. Jetlag laglag na mata ko eh hehe-"
"Wait!" I cut her off. "You mean, you let a stranger shared your room just because your sleepy?!"
"Ahh-ehh, she look nice naman at naawa ako kase gabi na naman at wala nang bakanteng room."
"And do you know what's her name?"
"Ahm, ano nga ba yun?"
Haysss
"Ah! Alam ko na! Alam ko na!"
Buti naman...
"Oh ano?"
"Fiona?"
"Fiery?"
"Ano ba talaga?!"
Hindi ko na napigilang mapasigaw nang dahil sa kaguluhan niya.
Takte!
"Ah! Eto na! Eto na!"
"Siguraduhing mong yan na tal-"
"Fajra!"
"WHAT?!!!"
"Ay! Juskoday!"
Nagulat siya sa sigaw ko pero mas lalo ako noh!
Siya yung jowalers ni Jaspher!
Wait! At ibig sabihin kaya nasa kwarto ko si Jaspher, d-dahil b-ba siya yung kasama ni Fajra na sinabihan niyang maki-share sa room ko?! Wtf?!
"Hoy! Nakikinig ka ba?!"
I heard Bett's voice that's why I came back to my reverie.
"So, bakit nga maingay dito sa room mo ah? Sino yung naki-share sa room mo?"
Should I tell them the truth?
No! No! Andwae! Not now! I'm not ready!
"Ah-eh, w-wala baka naman sa kabilang room yon. Pati hindi ko na tinanong name nya, umalis din kasi agad."
"What? Sayang naman, da-"
"Okay, enough of those."
Phew! Savior ka talaga Cil!
KALALABAS lang namin ng hotel at narito kami sa loob ng sasakyan. Thinking of where to go in the middle of morning.
"So, where do you guys plan to go to?"
I asked them.
"I don't want to go home pa, its like hell inside the house. Mas gusto ko muna dito, so relaxing and the view is so breath taking!"
Ewan ko sayo Betty boops but yeah, I agree with her. Chillax muna, weekends naman ngayun.
"Hmm, oh! I know a tourist spot beach here in Subic!"
Hehe sana pumayag sila.
Bett and Cil gave me a dead pan look. Ni hindi man lang sila nagulat.
"Duh? Maraming Beach dito sa Subic, girl!"
"Oh! yeah right! I forgot." Sabay kamot sa ulo.
"So where to?" Bett asked.
"Hmm, I suggest sa Camayan Beach Resort!" I excitedly suggest with a wide smile on my face.
"Huh? Bakit sa Camayan Beach? eh ang dami daming beach dito sa Subic at saka, bakit tayo mag bebeach eh kung pwede naman tayong mamasyal at gumala?" Takang tanong ni Bett with gestures pa.
Ampupu!
"That's the point Bett! kayanga tayo pumunta rito nang dahil sa beach! Gaga ka talaga!"
"Tss. Ang choosy mo pa Bett, Ikaw na lang kaya mag isang maglibot ha?" Nakapameywang na ani ni Cil.
"Oh ano? Reklamo ka pa?" Taas kilay kong tanong.
You made no choice sweetheart
"Do I have a choice? Tsk."
"No! You don't haha! Vamonos pipol!"
At last! She surrendered and we won! Woohoo!
JASPHER'S POV
"WE'RE here love!" I announced to Fajra that we're reached our destination but she didn't answered me back.
So I took a glanced at her to find out what she was doing.
Nag phophone sya at may kachat ata.
Pero, huh? Tf? What is she's smiling about?
"Love?"
"H-Huh? Yes love? M-May sinabi ka ba?"
"Wala naman love, by the way, we're here."
"Oh is that so? Yieee I'm so excited!"
Are you?
Aish! Amp!
*iling* *iling*
Pagkalabas namin ng sasakyan, namangha ako sa ganda ng dagat.
It's so relaxing here.
I rarely go to beaches because of busyness and I think its time to relax my self and have some fun while we still here.
"Love! Let's swim!" She shouted at me out of excitement.
I didn't know that she's already far from me because my mind was floating again.
Napakamot na lang ako sa ulo ko.
"I'm coming, love!" I shouted back at her.
Oops ano iniisip nyo! Haha! Tsk tsk.
"May swimsuit ka bang dala love?" Tanong ko at mukang natauhan naman siya na wala siyang pamalit.
"Oo nga noh, I'm so dumb! I'm so excited to swim but I don't have a freaking swimsuit! Argh!" Sinipa-sipa niya ang mga buhangin sa tabing dagat nang dahil sa inis.
"Hey, hey, love, we could buy na lang jan sa malapit na mall or else." Pagkukumbinsi ko sa kanya. Masyado kasi siyang spoil sa akin but I love her that'll do.
"Yeeeyy!! I love you so much, love! Your the best!" Masayang sabi niya sabay halik sa pisngi ko. Hehe.
"Your welcome, love."
BETTANY'S POV
HOLA soy Dora! Hehe.
Chaaarr! Heylow pipowl inda world! I'm Bettany but you can call me Bett or Ganda hehe and of course I'm definitely not Dora!
Wag na wag nyu pung gagayahin si Ath na ang tawag sa akin ay Bruha! Bad yun noh! Sumbong ko kayo kay Jungkook eh! Hmp!
Hehe.
So nandito kami ngayon nina Ath at Cil sa tabing dagat na parang tangang kanina pa na naglalakad dahil wala pang maisip na gagawin.
Psh! Malamang maglalangoy, dagat to eh!
Parang timang lang!
"Anuna!! Kanina pa tayo naglalakad hoi!"
"Tsk! Edi gumapang kang bruha ka! Tss."
Galing din mamilosopo netong Dyosang Bato na toh eh noh!
"Why don't we go for a swim?"
"Oh! Nice suggestion Cil!"
Hihi nice!
"Duhh! Kanina pa tayo naglalakad tapos ngayon nyo lang sasabihin nyan? At for your information, wala tayong dalang swimsuit!"
Nu problema netong babaknitang toh? Bakit parang palaging high blood?
"Yow sistah! May dalaw ka ba ha?"
"No! Kakatapos ko lang!"
"Woah, woah, chill mamshi I'm just asking hehe."
She glared at me.
Haha takut aku!
"You're irritating."
"Aishh! Why don't we just buy suits? How 'bout that?"
Cil suggested and I agreed fast.
"Yes! Lezzgow!"
PUMUNTA kami sa pinka malapit na mall para lang bumili ng swimsuit.
Eto kasing si Cil eh, masyadong richy tuloy, mapapagastos pa ako, kung pwede namang sa tabi-tabi na lang bumili. Tsk.
"Bett! Here try this!"
Tawag sa akin ni Cil - habang ako ay natingin ng mga rush guard - at may inabot sa akin na...?!
"B-Bakit two piece?! Hindi ba masyadong revealing katawan ko dito?"
Gosh! I can't even imagine my self wearing that!
"Tsk! Just trust me okay! It'll look good on you, promise!"
Sa amin kasing tatlo, si Cil ang masyadong magaling pumili pagdating sa damit. Baduy sa paningin niya ang mga damit na nagagandahang isinusuot namin ni Ath.
Kaya siya lagi napili sa mga sinusuot namin eh, kulang na nga lang ay siya na mismo pumili ng panting isusuot namin eh haha!
Wala na akong nagawa kundi isukat ang two piece swimsuit na pinili para sa akin ni Cil.
Aish! Bahala na si Jungkook! Baka iwan ako nun pag nakitang ito ang suot ko! Andwaeee!
"Hoy! Bilisan mo jan bruha! Tagal ah!"
"Tsk! Eto na eto na!"
Tiningnan ko ang sarili ko sa salamin at napangiti.
Hmm, bagay naman pala ih.
Idol na kita Cil! Siguradong maglalaway neto si Jungkook! Wahahaha!
"Done! Thanks Cil! Bagay nga saken! Hehe."
Kinindatan lang niya ako at sinulyapan ang pinto kung saan nagsusukat sa Ath.
"Ikaw rin bang pumili ng susuotin ni Ath?" I asked Cil.
Umiling naman siya.
"No actually, pero sana maganda napili niya hindi ko kase nakita ang napili nya."
Tumango-tango na lang ako at sumulyap sa may pinto nang bigla itong bumukas at lumabas si Ath na bihis na.
"Hey girl, you done? Can I see y-" Hindi na natapos ang sasabihin ni Cil nang unahan siya ni Ath.
"Let's pay this." Aniya at naunang naglakad papuntang counter.
We look both at each other and both shrugged.
ATHEENA'S POV
I REALLY don't know why I'm so pissed off right now. Iniisip ko kasi yung kanina kaya ako ganito. Aish!
~Flashback~
Nagsusukat ako sa fitting room nang may marinig akong boses sa katabi kong fitting room.
"Love is this okay? Pasok na ba sa taste mo? Hehe."
"It's beautiful on you love, but your body is too revealing in that two piece."
"Ano ka ba love! Uso kaya ito ngayon noh!"
"I don't care, just go change. Palitan mo yan, love."
"Tsk! Okay fine!"
Base on their voices, I know already who they are.
Tsk. Jaspher and Fajra
~End of flashback~
Hindi naman yun big deal but, ewan ko ba!
Pagkarating uli namin sa beach, nag-aya na agad yung dalawang bruha na lumangoy.
"Tara na! Bilisan nyo na! Sayang tong ganda ng blue lagoon oh!"
Tsk. Ang ingay! At masyadong pang atat si bruhang Betty boops amp!
"Huy! Dyosang Bato! Ano? Tuluyan ka na bang naging bato dahil naka tigil ka lang jan ah?"
"Eto na! Magbibihis na!"
Balik kong sigaw kay Bett.
"Yow, Atheena babe! Can I see your swimsuit?"
"Why? Eh eto na nga lang gagamitin kong panlangoy aagawin mo pa."
Anu ba naman etong si Cil! Aish!
"Boba! Ti.ting.nan.ko.lang. hindi ko aagawin! May suit na ko duh!"
"Tsk. You'll see later."
"Anong later?! Now na! Tamo ka, gagabihin na naman tayo neto pauwi dahil sa kakupadan mo!"
Aba! Loko to ah! Nanunumbat pa!
I just rolled my eyes at her and go straight to the restroom.
When I entered in a cubicle, I heard a very weird sound coming from the other cubicle.
W-What's t-that? B-Bakit may
u-umuungol?
Oh god!
Nanindig ang mga balahibo ko at napatakip ako sa bibig ko nang mapagtanto kung kanino nanggagaling ang ungol na yun.
JASPHER'S POV
NAGDIDRIVE ako nang may tumawag sa akin sa phone.
"What's up, bro!"
Si Taylor.
I sighed. "Ano Kailangan mo?"
"Awts amhert! Anyway, since I'm bored, I want you to play ML with me hehe."
"The fvck? You called me because of that?"
Tch! Nonsense!
"Uh yup! So? Game?"
"Fvck you!"
"Love you too, bro!" He laughed and it's irritating me.
"Damn you! I'm in the middle of driving here!"
"Oh you are? With Fajra?"
"Yes." Tipid kong sagot.
"Ohhh wooo bro, paalala lang ah, kasal muna bago honeymoon! HAHAHAHA"
"T*ngna mo talaga Lor! Gulpi ka sakin pag balik ko."
"Pagbalik mo galing honeymoon?"
"Gago!" Pagkakasabi ko non, pinatayan ko na siya ng tawag at baka mapuno na pasenya ko sa gagong yun.
"Love, who's that?" Si Fajra
Binalingan ko sya at sumagot.
"Yung kupal kong kapatid."
She chuckled. "Tsk. You're so harsh to him, love."
I just rolled my eyes but not to her but to Taylor even when he's not here. "Tch! Whatever."
PAGBALIK namin sa beach, agad na nagpaalam si Fajra na magbibihis na dahil sa ka-excited-an mag langoy.
"Love! Restroom lang ako ah!"
I just nodded to take for an answer.
Nakamasid lang ako sa dagat habang hinihintay si Fajra na matapos magbihis.
Ah! It's so relaxing here! If I could leave here forever, I'll do it.
Minutes later, nakita ko nang naglalakad papalapit sa akin so Fajra.
Napakunot ang nuo ko nang makita siya.
Bakit parang ang haggard niya at pawisan? Eh malamig naman at mukang may aircon ang mga restroom nila dito.
Hingal na hingal siyang lumapit sa akin.
"L-Love! K-Kanina ka pa ba? Sorry ang dami kasing nakapila sa restroom eh."
Napatango-tango na lang ako.
"A-Ahh, ganun ba? O-Okay lang, love."
I forced a smile to her.
"Uhm, why aren't you just standing their and not changing clothes? You don't wanna go for a swim?"
"Ah, no I'm not in the mood to swim so, I'll just watch you from here na lang."
Tila hindi siya kumbinsado sa sinabi ko but she still manage to smile.
She shrugged. "Okay love, if you say so."
Tiningnan ko lang siyang papunta sa dagat hanggang makalubog ang katawan niya sa tubig.
And then suddenly, my gaze went to someone. And that someone is, is the one who I slept with last night.
Is this one of a fvcking coincidence again?
I stared at her while she's walking in to the deep part of the sea.
The water level was on her waist and she keeps on walking non-stop until the water is already rises up to her neck.
My eyebrows furrowed.
Is she trying to kill her self?"
But based on her looks, I think she's spacing out and not knowing that she's  already in the deep part of the sea.
I look around, trying to find her friends but I don't see where they were.
Sh*t!
Tumakbo na ako papalapit sa kanya at nilangoy ang pagitan namin.
"Hey!" I shouted, only for her to hear me.
But she didn't turn around when I called her.
Until her whole body sank in the water.
Fvck!
Panay ang sigaw niya ng 'tulong' habang pumapadyak para maka-ahon. Bumalik na ata sya diwa nya.
Buti na lang may alam ako Kahit papaano sa paglalangoy so I didn't hesitate to save her from drowning.
