Question To Ask Novelas e Histórias

Anong ibig sabihin ng tanong nito? Bigla siyang kinabahan nang lumingon ito sa kanya. Malamlam ang mga mata nitomg tumitig. Naghihintay ng sagot niya. "Are you going to tell me?" Dagdag na tanong nito. "May karapatan ba akong malaman?" Natigilan siya bigla. "Do...do you want to know? Gusto mo bang malaman kung sakali ngang mabuntis ako, Craig?"

But he's my teacher, so I need to back off. "I won't answer that. You don't need to know that info. That's too personal, Sir. And why the hell are you asking about that?" I said a bit pissed and suspicious. "You only need to say yes or no, Quiva. Why are you trying to get away from my question?" He said fierce. I stared at his green eyes for a while.

Kami lang iyong tao dito. “‘What?” I queried. Whenever people say that line, I don’t know why but I always feel nervous. Wala naman akong ginawang masama and questions shouldn’t make me nervous, but heck, parang hindi ako napapakali hangga’t hindi ko naririnig kung ano iyong tanong niya. “‘Would you like to meet Mom?” He questioned. He means my biological mom and his stepmom. “Why?” “She’s been asking me to ask you,” sagot niya. “Okay lang ba sa ‘yo?”

I don't have the fucking money, and I don't know where is the money! Mahina siyang napailing at humugot ng malalim na hininga. “Wrong answer, ma boi.” With that, diniin niya ang umuusok at namumulang bakal sa binti nito. Hindi ito sumigaw.

“Faith…” “Hm?” Kapwa pa hinihingal na tipid na kausap nila sa isa’t-isa nang sandaling mag hiwalay ang kanilang mga labi. “Are you okay?” Tila isang timang na tanong sa kanya ni Zack, habol ang hiningang pilit namang sumagot si Faith ng isang pabulong na I DON’T KNOW. “What do you wanna do?” “Gee… quit asking questions and do what you think we both want to do.”

Hindi ‘yung basta tingin lang, kundi ‘yung tipong parang may gusto siyang sabihin. “Can I ask you something personal?” tanong niya kaya parang kinabahan ako. “Depende po,” sagot ko, na medyo defensive. “Why do you stay? Here, I mean. Why not go abroad or find another job that pays more? You’re smart, trained, capable.”

"Excuse me? Akala ko ba magsisimula na tayo sa interview?" "Yes. And that is my first question." "Hindi ba dapat tanungin mo muna ako about sa sarili ko? Bakit ko gustong magtrabaho rito, ano'ng nagbigay ng interest sa akin sa posisyong a-apply-an ko, what motivates me, my educational background, hobbies, work experience, weaknesses, my—" "Why would I ask questions to which I already know the answers?"

Napatingala tuloy ako sa kan'ya. Lumapit ito sa akin na lalo kong ipinagtaka. Umupo ito sa kantuhan ng kaniyang lamesa at nagpamulsang tumingin sa'kin. "Saan mo gustong pumunta sa birthday mo?" Seryosong tanong nito. Nagtataka ko itong tinignan. "Po?" "May gusto ka bang puntahan sa birthday mo?" Tanong nito. "Wala naman po, bakit? May pupuntahan kayo?" Tanong ko, napabuntong hininga naman ito.

Pinagpa-walang bahala ko nalang. "Qual è il tuo prossimo piano adesso? (What is your next plan now? ) " ang pahabol niyang tanong sa akin habang unti unti akong lumalayo sa kanya. Huminto ako saglit at napa isip, saka lumingon sa kanya na nakatayo sa isang corner.
