"Why are you doing this?" Indie asked, nakasulat iyon sa board niya. When I looked up at her face, her aura was dark, her lips in a thin line, she was looking at me with impassive eyes.

I was driving on our way home. Kanina pa siya tahimik at mukhang wala sa mood, simula nung lumabas siya sa bakery shop. Tahimik siya nung ayain ko na siya umuwi, nagulat pa ako kasi hindi siya tumutol o nagalit man lang.

"What do you mean?" I asked in a flat tone. I don't want her to see that I'm affected by the emotions she's giving me. Kanina ayos pa siya, ngayon eto na naman siya.

She put the board and the pen on her lap, then signed. "This. Why are you being so nice to me?"

I gritted my teeth and focused my eyes more on the road. I badly want to look directly into her eyes but I just can't because I'm driving. "Why, Indie? Is there something wrong with that?" I asked her.

What's her problem? May issue na pala ang pagiging mabait ko sa kanya? I'm just treating her right! Ano ba dapa
