They Don't Know About Us

Chapter 16

"Oi, breathless daw oh. Parang ngayon ko lang ulit narinig na something left Kai breathless—or should I say: someone," Zoe winked.

"Di daw sya nakahinga sa takot nyang pumiyok ako," Sasha claimed with a laugh.

Kai rolled her eyes and shook her head at the same time. "Grabe ka ha, ang ganda kaya ng boses mo."

"Sus, honesty is the best policy. I say no to sugar-coating," Sasha stuck her tongue out at Kai who gasped in return. "I do not sugarcoat. Trust me. I say it like it is lalo pa kung pangit boses mo. Sa tingin mo I'd sit here and endure listening to you kung hindi totoo na maganda boses mo? Sus," Kai said defensively.

"Oi, tama na yan. Daig nyo pa kaming dalawa sa bickering nyo eh," Kenny intervened.

"Oo nga naman," Kai agreed. "How about you sing then, Kenny?" Kai winked this time.

"Ayan tayo eh. Magaling mang-segue," Kenny was actually impressed.

"Oo nga. Tapos si Zoe naman pagka-tapos. Ang daya nyo, napasubo kami ni Kai kaagad sa inyo eh," Sasha said.

"Oo nga," Kai agreed.

"Aba, akala mo kanina hindi nag-aargue tong dalawang toh. Same side naman kayo ngayon? One side of the spectrum to another real quick ah," Kenny teased.

"I'm always on Sasha's side," Kai claimed.

"And I'm always on Kai's side," Sasha grinned.

"Speaking of sides," Zoe interrupted. "Pwede duet na lang kami ng asawa ko?" Zoe smiled cheekily.

"Ang sarap naman pakinggan nung 'asawa ko'," Kenny bit her lips. Then she leaned forward and gave her wife a kiss on the lips.

Kai couldn't help but smile. She couldn't be any happier to see her best friends deeply and happily in love. Her heart started to ache again, and Sasha noticed.

"Cute nila noh?" Sasha leaned towards her.

"Oo nga. Ang cute ng dalawang madayang toh," Kai leaned closer to Sasha so that their arms touched.

"Anong madaya???" Kenny and Zoe asked at the same time.

"Duet kayo pero tig-isang song kami ni Sasha? Asan ang fairness dun?" Kai pointed out which made the couple chuckle.

"Oo nga," Sasha agreed with her this time.

"Ay sus. Iba kami. Mag-asawa na kami. We are one. Pasensya," Kenny grinned while she held Zoe who giggled at Sasha and Kai.

"Ugh," Kai let out.

Sasha chuckled. "Hayaan mo na."

When Sasha's hand touched Kai's knee, she couldn't say no anymore. "Sige na nga. Go, duet kayo, Mrs. and Mrs. Villamore."

"Ano ulit?" Kenny and Zoe wanted to hear it again.

"Mrs. and Mrs. Villamore," Kai repeated slowly.

"Music to my ears," Kenny closed her eyes while she smiled. Zoe laughed giddily next to her wife.

"Ang lalandi," Kai said which made Sasha laugh.

"Don't be jelly belly, KaiKai. Mabilis lang yung oras. Di mo mamamalayan kasal ka na and you're having a baby," Kenny promised her.

Sasha smiled. "Na-iimagine ko na. You're going to be a great mom."

"Mama Kai, mama Kai," Kenny and Zoe mimicked a child's voice.

"Sing!" Kai demanded at the couple who was swaying each other. Sasha laughed.

"Okay," Kenny and Zoe said in unison while they searched for a song to sing together.
