JADE’S POV
Dumating na ako sa Country Steak House, at nakita ko sya sa isang sulok, nakasuot ng black leather jacket at nakatingin sa baso ng juice sa table nya at ginagamit yung cellphone nya. Noong nakita nya ko, ngumiti na naman sya ng sarcastic. Umupo ako kaharap sya.
“What now?” tanong ko kay Miller.
“Want to know the price?” naglolokohan ba kami nito?
“Sige na sabihin mo na!” dami mo pang sat sat
“1.2 million and I need it on Monday?” What? 1.2 million. Where can I get that f**king money?
“At kapag hindi mo naibigay on Monday, goodluck to your jail life.”
“Nagbibiro ka ba?” tapos pinakita nya sa akin yung receipt at yung paper na may estimation ng magagastos.
“But If you cannot find that sum of money, I can give you another option!”
“What’s that?” baka magawa ko to instead of paying him
“Be my girlfriend “ Girlfriend? Nya? Naglolokohan ba talaga kami?
“Naglolokohan ba tayo?”
“I’m serious be my girlfriend for 6 months, it’s like you’ll do everything I ask you to do”
“Are you playing on me, Girlfriend ba ang sumunod sa lahat ng iuutos mo?”
“Sabi ko I’m serious bingi ka ba Stupid, Girlfriend ang tawag doon!S”
“I’ll give you the condition this Monday, If you cannot pay me, be my girlfriend , and if you don’t want to be my girl then go to jail!” tumayo sya at iniwan nya ko. Heartless talaga tong taong to. Laruan ba ako para gawing girlfriend nya para pagtripan?
“Stupid, may 4 days ka para pag-isipan ang lahat!” tapos umalis na sya. Ang saya-saya siguro nya dahil namamanipulate nya ko. Ito naman talaga ang gagawin nya sa akin. Pag-uwi ko, hindi na ko nagkwento kay Jean baka mag-isip pa sya, hindi ko na rin sinabi yung price ng damage ng car. Pero parang mababaliw na din ako, san ako kukuha ng 1.2 million? Nagtext ako kay Milky.
To: Milky
Girl, may 1.2 million ka ba?
Milky:
I cannot lend it to you,..
Girl, I’m getting married!
To:Milky
What? Kanino? Wla ka naman bf ngayon ha..
Milky:

To:Milky
Are you in drugs? Are you dreaming?.. itulog mo nga yan!
Milky
I’m serious. Our parents arranged it. What will you do with 1.2 million?
To:Milky
Girl, I can’t tell you. I don’t really know what to do now. I can’t even tell mom about this.
Nakatulog na rin ako, kakatext kay Milky pero, hindi ko pa rin nasabi yung pagagamitan ko ng pera. Since walang makakatulong sa akin para sa ganoong kalaking pera, nagsimula na kong bilangin ang araw.
