for the first half of today, i was being difficult. i was being a typical of a disturbed teen who considered options that would lead to self-destruction. i was just silent the whole time during the lecture, and i didn't bloody care to be with my friends when they ate during lunch. i just wandered alone for a few minutes during lunch break. i found a payphone, and i decided to call home. er - my mother's office, actually. it was already way past 1 pm so i figured she'd already be at the office. *oh really? is that the real reason why you called the office, korinna?*
so anyway, i recognized kuya darlon's voice at the other end of the line. he said mama's not around. he asked me whether i wish to speak to somebody else. i blurted out okay out of impulse, then told me to hold. he called for someone, then i heard kuya panod's voice.
me: hello? sino to? (as if hindi pa alam)
kuya: si arnold?
me: uy kuya panod! (pretending to be shocked) bakit ikaw? (as if ayaw kong kausapin)
the rest was a haze, but some bits i remembered was that he told me my voice sounded ugly on the phone. i retorted "bruha ka talaga, nag long-distance na nga at lahat tapos pangit pa boses ko." then laughter. later he asked me whether i already got the photos he sent via email, which i already did. oh yeah, i emphasized that i was looking for my mom, because she's always offline in msn. and i called the office because it's already past 1 pm so she should be at the office already. should be a reason safe enough why i called right? then nearing the end of our conversation, i told him to say hi to ate yummy for me. he said she's around and i could talk to her. but before he gave ate yummy the phone, he said in a whisper "ingat ka lagi jan ha?", which sent me into fits of giggles and catapulted my state of melancholy to that of euphoria. so there, i was smiling on my way back to the lecture theatre for my next class.
