“Ewan ko sa inyong mga babae, pero kaming mga lalaki... Hay naku!” sabi ko kay Sam. Tomboy si, Sam friend ko, magka-office mate kami, well nung trabaho pa ko... Nagpalibre ako ng dinner... and now, kape sa Starbucks... niyaya ko siya maglakad lakad sa mall habang kwekwentohan, di pwedeng umupo lang kami dun sa Starbucks... feeling ko, di ko matitiis, at maghahanap ng yosi...
“Babae ka pa rin naman ah, nagkataon lang na ang gusto mo, kapwa mo babae, ako, lalaki pa rin naman ako, at kaming mga lalaki, well, we are polygamous by nature... Kung yung may asawa nagluluko...! Yung pari nga! Bakla pa kaya!!!”
“Sino si Wanggo?!” tanong ni Sam.
“Si Wanggo...!” sagot ko, as if kailangan maalala niya kung sino si Wanggo, “Plus it's Wanggo! What would he want from me?!”
“He gave you his number...” Sam still confused.
“I asked for it...”
“Why, if you had no intentions of calling or texting...?”
“Just being polite,” I answered, “He asked for my number, I have not memorized my new number, kaya hiningi ko na lang yung sa kanya...”
“So, he asked for your number...?”
“I think he was just being polite...”
“I see...”
“How did we become friends...?” Tanong ni Sam...
“Through Kate,” sagot ko...
“At paano mo naging kaibigan si Kate?”
“Through Dee...”
“Na team mate mo so by default, tipong no choice, but to be friendly with...”
“Well...”
“Text mo si Wanggo, say hi... kamustahin mo siya...” she said, na parang nikikiusap.
“Why...?”
“The guy might need a friend, if not... God, knows you need a friend like yourself...”
