Si Jaki at Si Jiit...

"May nagtext na naman sa akin from G4M," says Jaki, taking a seat next to my station.

"Ano naman ang sabi this time?" I asked.

"Sex daw kami during lunch time," he says, sounding like an innocent grade school student.

"I never saw you as being the promiscuous type," I said to him.

"Hello bookie??? Di ko pinapatulan yung mga ganito noh?" Jaki answers indignantly, "besides, if I did, I would be too busy to do my coaching and verint sessions. Almost everyday yata ako nakakatanggap ng ganito. And most of them are indecent proposals."

"Wow. Faithful ka talaga kay Jiit," I commented.

"Hay naku. Ayaw ko na pag-usapan pa yung pandak na yun," Jaki breathes out.

"And why is that?" I ask.

"I'm tired of thinking of him," he replies, "He never should have left me for Japan, you know."

"Look, he needed a job and he has a life of his own," I pointed out, "I'm sure he's having a hard time being separated from you, too, you know."

"Eh bakit pa kasi dun siya nagtrabaho dun sa Ex niya?" Jaki says, pouting.

I don't have anything to say to that.

"Anyways, let's talk about something else," Jaki changes topics quickly, "Kayo na ba ni JR?"

I blurt out, "NGEK!!! Hello? We're just friends! He doesn't see me that way believe me. Besides, may dyowa na yung tao. And according to him, he's getting married na."

"Really? Alam ba nung girlash na girlash din yung BF niya?" Jaki asks, curious.

"As far as I know, yes, and she's perfectly fine with it," I reply.

"Weeeird," says Jaki.

"It's love, I guess," I answer.
