I was inviting R.A to visit the Marine festival with me in the city, thought, it could be another way to spend time with him and he said: OK LANG. Its not a yes or its not a NO either I assumed. So I told him, OK then lets go there later since both of us are off!
"I don't have enough money left, let's wait for the payday"
"oh come on, you still owe me a dinner hehe!" --me
"its true. i don't have enough to go out this week."
"I'm bored today, I'll take care of it. Just come with me" I insisted
And then he signed out on Face book without giving me a confirmation! he did it again! Damn him! I tried to call his cellphone but he wont pick up.
OK, fine. He's avoiding me.
I won't bother him again. As in ever again! asar na asar ako!
Magpapa-miss ako! tignan natin kundi nya ako hanapin!tse!
Many days have passed and we haven't seen each other. A good thing, I must say. Fate was helping me to move on. (parang nag-break up?LOL)
But not last Friday morning! We have the same duty! I spotted him as soon as I entered the ICU. He was busy with his documentations. I carry on with my job and pretend I'm not noticing him. I told my partner that I don't wanna go near him (he knew I like R.A) that he should help me to avoid him haha. sabwatan ito!
Everything works well until my partner got busy and I have no choice but to check the file of R.A's patient myself!
I quietly took and open the files while he was busy writing, he looked at me as soon as he felt my presence.
"uyyy, nag morning shift siya..." he said smiling.
(you're on morning shift)
"oo nga e..." (yeah) that's all I said to him. He's acting as if we're OK, hmmp! I still hold a grudge against him kaya. Pretending I was not interested in talking further and moved on to the next patient.
After a few minutes I was checking the medicines few meters away from him and he suddenly called me.
"mac...you think we'll have the salary tomorrow?"
"I'm not sure. Maybe". and I continued on my work. And why is he asking me about payday tomorrow? Is he going to invite me out finally tomorrow if salary is available?
Tse!
One time I was fixing the personal protective gown for the isolation patients when he jokingly pulled out its tie and I looked around and saw him silently laughing while walking away.
In my mind, I thought: Papansin siya huh. Tsk tsk tsk. (he's trying to get my attention since I'm not giving it to him on purpose) I smiled.
An evil smile!
I was bragging to my friends how successful my plan was on R.A! that finally he noticed it and he's the one making those efforts now for me to notice him this time. Yeah! Success!
On our second rounds around lunch time. I was on the phone and he was at the computer that we were so close and no one was around...I don't know what came to me and my emotions took over and I said the words that I have been keeping inside since last week!
"Hoy R.A! May atraso ka sakin". --me.
(hey R.A. You did something bad last time)
Damn! what happened to my plan????Shit! shit!
"Wala kaya... (I don't think so)" he said while smiling innocently. He knows what I'm talking about.
"Of course you know what I'm talking about...You left me at the chat room and you're not answering my call!"
"I don't have phone credits, that's why..." he continued and went back to his patient. But I followed him. I'm not finish with my interrogations yet!LOL
He was checking his patient's I.V but I kept on going: "you don't need credits to answer my call!"
"really?" he's still playing stupid.
"yeah!"
"so tell me...why you're not answering my calls?"
He moved to another part of the bed. The patient was looking at us, maybe wondering what's the fuss all about haha. But I kept on following the moron (R.A).
"ano ka ba? nag tatrabaho ako hehehe" he said while pushing me a little to back off. He was still laughing at my persistence.
I'll go where he'll go. He cannot escape me!
He squat at the side of the bed and I squat with him too while he was checking the patient's urine bag and measuring it. I looked around and saw my partner smiling at us. Maybe he thought I was weird hahaha!
"You're avoiding me aren't you? tell me...that's why you're not answering my call?"
"I did not hear your call that's why...and besides I told you I don't have enough money left. Let's wait for the payday..." he explained.
"I told you too that we don't need more money to go the festival! Its free!"
"If we have salary tomorrow, maybe....and besides, I think the festival's finished since yesterday!"
"No. its extended till end of the month. For us!". LOL. I continued on convincing him.
"really?" and he looked at his new female colleague and said:"you wanna come? the festival he said is extended..."
WTF????are you kidding me? I wanna scream that to his face! He wants to bring this new nurse with us? On our date?!
I just walked out on him and left the unit! F*ck him!
Hay...poor Mac, no one wants to love him...Charot!
