《DarLentina One Shots (NarGina)》Play Pretend

Wherein Noah introduces Narda as his girlfriend to his whole family one dinner.
But then, they're both gay.
"sige na Narda, please I beg you..I just have to introduce someone to dad, if I attend that family dinner with no one iisipin na naman nun na pwede niya akong ireto kung kani-kanino." he says na halos lumuhod na talaga.
Nasa bahay sila ngayon ni Narda, sa garden area nito. She's his best friend whom he met nung College and the only person who knows he's gay.
"bakit nga ako???? kilala na ako ng dad mo!" inis na sabi naman ni Narda na tumayo na mula sa kinauupuan niya.
Pag hindi niya kasi matansya pagmumukha ni Noah baka masuntok niya na.
"exactly the reason why! he knows you and he'll believe the story na we fell in love and boom! no other girls!" he said, following where Narda went.
Pumasok naman si Narda sa bahay niya at dumeretso sa kusina para kumuha ng baso at sa ref para sa tubig.
"and how am I supposed to go find myself a girlfriend if we pretend we're together?! two weeks ago kinukulit mo ako to do just that!" inis na sabi nito at hinarap si Noah bago ininom ang tubig.
Noah then took a deep breath at kumuha na din ng baso bago lumapit kay Narda para sa tubig.
Narda watch him drink his glass of water bago siya nito tinignan.
"ikaw lang naman kasi may alam na bakla ako eh. takot pa akong umamin kay dad. but I promise, gagawin ko. pero for now, help me muna please? Narda I really am begging you." sabi nito sa kanya.
Narda shook her head at huminga ng malalim, "fine, sige. but I'll give this whole fake relationship a week, if ever, sabihin ko nalang sa dad mo na d tayo nag-work dahil pareho tayong busy." sabi nito sa kanya, Noah stared at her for awhile bago siya nito nilapitan at niyakap.
"thank you Narda."
Niyakap na din ni Narda si Noah pabalik sabay sagot, "sagot mo lahat ng kain ko for that whole week sira! wala ng libre ngayon kahit pa best friend kita." and that made Noah laugh.
Well, sino pa nga ba magtutulungan? edi ang mga bading.
"siraulo ka Noah, d mo sinabi sakin na sa bahay ng dad mo tayo kakain! akala ko sa restaurant, naka heels pa ako tsaka dress na bagong bili para sa event na'to!" reklamo ni Narda kay Noah ng huminto ito sa labas ng bahay ng dad nito.
Tumatawa naman si Noah sa pinagsasabi ni Narda kaya pinalo siya nito sa braso, "sorry Narda.. malay ko ba naman kasing paghahandaan mo 'tong ngayon." sabi nito sa kanya.
"bwesit ka!" inis na inis pa ding sabi ni Narda sa kanya.
"sorry na nga kasi, sige lang, okay lang yan, maganda ka naman lalo jan eh. besides, the whole family is there, even my cousins and other relatives, bagay lang yang suot mo." sabi naman nito sabay ngiti na inirapan naman ni Narda.
Bumaba naman na ng kotse si Noah at pinagbuksan si Narda, nilahad pa nito kamay nito na tinanggap naman ni Narda.
Ang sweet nga nila tignan, wala namang nakakakita na halos baliin na ni Narda kamay ni Noah.
"masakit hoy." sabi naman ni Noah na halos bumitaw na.
"kasalanan mo yan." sabi naman ni Narda.
Lumapit na sila Noah sa labas ng pinto nila at binati naman sila ng katulong ng dad niya.
"sir Noah, magandang gabi po. tsaka sa inyo din ma'am Narda."

Bumati din sila pabalik sabay bumukas na ang pinto.
"d pa din ako maka get over na mansion ang meron kayo, daig pa nito yung sa movies." pabulong na sabi ni Narda.
Nakakapunta na siya dito noon pa man, minsan dito din kasi sila nag-aaral ni Noah nung College pa sila.
"mansion nga wala naman halos tao, daig pa haunted houses sa sobrang tahimik. buti nga ngayon may ganap eh." pabulong din na sabi nito sa kanya.
Magkahawak na sila ng kamay ngayon ni Noah, d na naman sila awkward kasi ever since naman nagho-holding hands din sila. Kaya nga inaasar sila before na baka magkatuluyan dahil sobrang comfortable na sila sa isa't-isa. They didn't have the guts to tell them they won't be together kasi magkaiba sila ng hanap.
But look at them now. Pretend lovers.
"sakit sa paa ng heels." bulong ulit ni Narda kay Noah.
"d ka naman kasi sanay na nagsusuot ng ganyan. I'll get you a pair of shoes, meron pa naman akong gamit dito kahit papano." sagot ni Noah sa kanya.
"sige, thank you."
Dumeretso na sila sa garden area nila Noah, marami ng tao, sobrang haba ng mesa parang may pista eh.
"this is it." magkasabay na sabi nila, making them laugh.
Malayo palang ay tanaw na nila ang mga kamag-anak at ang dad ni Noah. Kahit d sila mag-usap, pareho nilang alam na kinakabahan sila.
"Noah." salubong ng dad ni Noah sa kanya ng nakangiti. Hindi naman nakalagpas sa dad niya ang magkahawak nilang kamay ni Narda.
"Narda, you look even prettier tonight." sabi ng dad nito kay Narda.
"thank you po tito." nahihiyang sagot ni Narda.
"come on, join the conversation." sabi ng dad ni Noah at naglakad na pabalik sa long table.
"ang dami ng relatives mo, bwesit. itutuloy talaga natin 'to?" bulong ni Narda ng maglakad na sila pasunod sa dad ni Noah.
"yes, kailangan." sabi naman ni Noah sa kanya.
Masyadong abala ang lahat kaya d sila napapansin ni Noah, mabuti na din yun, nahihiya pa din si Narda.
"kunin ko muna yung sapatos ha?" bulong ni Noah sa kanya na pinanlakihan niya ng mata.
"iiwan mo talaga ako dito?!" pabulong na tanong niya.
"I have to, pero sige ganito nalang, mag excuse ka na magbabanyo ka, sasamahan kita pero deretso ako dun sa room ko to get the shoes and let's just meet each other sa baba ng stairs." bulong naman ni Noah sa kanya.
"pinapahirapan mo buhay ko, nakakagigil ka na." sabi niya dito na nginitian siya pabalik.
"dali na, sabihin mo na." utos nito sa kanya.
Sumakto namang naiihi nga siya kaya nag excuse nga siya sa lahat.
"samahan na kita Narda." sabi ni Noah na nginitian naman niya.
Tumayo na sila at umalis mula sa nakaka suffocate na lugar na yun.
"magbabanyo talaga ako, see you later." sabi niya sa best friend niya before finding her way papunta sa banyo na para sa mga bisita lang.
The moment na pumasok siya sa banyo ay sumandal siya sa pinto nito.
"siraulong Noah, bakit ba kasi ako pumayag eh." bulong niya sa sarili.
After her business sa banyo ay ready na siyang bumalik at makisalamuha na naman ulit sa iba but the moment she opened the door, napatigil siya.
ang ganda niya.
She thought as she stared at the person in front of her. Mas matangkad ito sa kanya kahit na naka heels na siya, may magandang mata na parang kaluluwa niya yung tinitignan, matangos na ilong at mukhang soft na mga labi.

andito dapat ako para maging jowa ni Noah pero bakit gusto kong lumandi?
"Narda?" biglang rinig naman niya sa boses ni Noah na nasa likod ng babaeng kaharap niya.
Lumingon ang babae kay Noah and damn, kulang nalang tumulo laway ni Narda.
pati likod maganda, help!
"Regina." rinig niyang tawag ni Noah sa babae.
"hey cous'." bati nung babae dito.
cous? as in pinsan?!
Pinanlakihan niya ng mata si Noah na sakto namang nakatingin na sa kanya.
"how are you?" rinig niyang tanong nung Regina sabay lumapit kay Noah at bumeso.
ako wala?
Napailing siya sa iniisip niya, bakit naman siya ibe-beso nito?
"I'm doing good, gwapo pa rin. ikaw?" sabi naman nito, signalling Narda na lumapit sa kanya.
Ginawa din naman ni Narda simply because gusto niya ulit makita mukha ni Regina.
Instead, narinig niyang nag chuckle si Regina bago sumagot.
"still the same Noah Vallesteros. but well, I'm doing great cous'." sabi nito at tinignan siya, nakangiti pa din ito.
nakakatunaw yung tingin, nakakabaliw yung ngiti. hindi ako strong!!!
"anyways, ikaw nalang hinihintay nila dad. asan na ba si tito?" tanong ni Noah.
"well, andun na siya.. susunod ako after kong mag cr." sabi naman nito.
"sige cous', see you nalang dun okay?" sabi nito na siniko naman niya ng patago.
"d mo ako ipapakilala?" bulong ni Narda kay Noah.
Napangiti si Noah bago hinarap ulit si Regina, "by the way cous', this is Narda Custodio, my girlfriend. Narda, si Regina Vanguardia, pinsan ko." pakilala ni Noah sa kanila.
Gustong sapakin ni Narda si Noah, bakit kasi kailangan pa yung girlfriend girlfriend na yan sa introductions eh!
"it's nice to meet you Narda." sabi ni Regina sa kanya at inabot ang kamay for a handshake.
"ako din Regina." sabi niya naman at tinanggap ito.
ang lambot! hoy!
"bakit d mo sinabi sakin na may pinsan kang diyosa?!" inis na reklamo ni Narda kay Noah at hinampas ito sa braso.
Nasa sala pa sila ngayon at tinatanggal pa ni Noah ang heels niya, sobrang sakit na kasi ng paa niya.
"aray naman!" reklamo ni Noah.
"malay ko bang pupunta talaga siya ngayon, ilang family dinner na din yung hindi pumupunta eh, lagi kasing pinag-uusapan kanino siya ipapakasal." paliwanag naman nito.
"oh?" na-intriga naman siya dahil dun.
Sinusuot na ni Noah sa kanya yung sapatos ngayon.
"bakit ba wala pa din siyang jowa? maganda naman siya, mukhang naliligo lagi, mukha ding matalino, tsaka mukhang mabait." sabi niya kay Noah that made him smile.
Nakaluhod ang isang tuhod nito habang hawak ang isang sapatos sa harap ni Narda at ngumiti, "and you think that way kahit saglit lang kayo nagkausap?" he teased.
"you seem to really like Regina." sabi pa nito.
"maba-bad trip ba ako ng ganito kung hindi? dali na nga, bakit single pa siya?" tanong ni Narda.
"she actually came out 5 years ago, it was so sudden. isang relative namin nagsabi na nakita niya si Regina sa isang café, may ka holding hands na girl tas hinalikan niya pa sa lips. some elders didn't like it, sabi bakit daw naging ganun siya, d daw maganda yung ganun.. they mentioned na kaya pala ayaw niyang pinag-uusapan mga possible niyang maging boyfriends and husband arrangements kasi ganun siya, she had enough of it all and admitted the truth. since then, hindi na namin siya nakakasama sa family dinner." mahabang sabi nito habang sinusuot kay Narda ang isang sapatos.
Napaisip naman si Narda.
kaya siguro natatakot din si Noah na umamin.
"and yes, si Regi rason kung bakit hindi ako makaamin. natatakot akong baka ganun din maging reaksyon ng family ko sakin." he confessed as he sat beside Narda.
"pero mukhang okay na naman si Regina ah? she came here again, she faced it all, nakaya niya. siguro sign yun for you to try and face your fear? pero siyempre, hindi kita pangungunahan. basta, pag handa ka na, kasama mo ako sa laban na yun ha?" sabi niya sa best friend niya.
Noah smiled at her.
"salamat Narda ha." sabi nito.
Kahit na pinipilit ni Narda na hindi lingunin si Regina, yung mata niya napapatitig pa din dito.
It's as if some magnetic thing that's pulling her.
Hindi naman nakaligtas sa kanya ang bulongan ng ibang relatives ni Noah tungkol kay Regina.
Anong petsa at taon na pero hindi pa din nila maintindihan.
"so Noah, finally after ilang years, official na ba kayo ni Narda?" rinig niyang tanong ng dad ni Noah.
Kinabahan naman siya bigla.
Noah held her hand from under the table and she comforted him back.
"andito lang ako, okay lang." bulong niya dito.
Suddenly Noah stood from his seat.
"honestly, I brought Narda as my date..pero after thinking much about it, I realize it's not good na manloko." he said, magkahawak pa din sila ng kamay ni Noah.
"I asked Narda to pretend as my girlfriend. pero pareho namang hindi nakakatuwa kasi ang totoo? I am gay. and Narda? she's also gay." sabi nito.
Tumayo na siya at hinawakan si Noah sa braso.
She did not expect Noah to confess like this, so sudden. Pero hindi nga siguro talaga malalaman kung kailan ka magiging handa.
"kung hindi niyo ako matatanggap o kung may mga masasabi kayo tungkol sakin, okay lang. wag niyo lang idamay si Narda. or even Regina. kakabalik niya lang ulit sa dinner pero lahat kayo pinag-uusapan na naman siya."
"Noah!" sigaw ng dad ni Noah na tumayo na din sa kinauupuan nito.
"what dad?" he asked, as if challenging him.
"hindi ka bakla." his dad said that made Noah chuckle.
Narda also did.
Heck, kahit si Regina.
"whatever dad, aalis na kami." he said at kinuha ang gamit nila ni Narda.
He pulled Narda close to him, mabuti nga talaga at d na siya naka heels, ang bilis maglakad ni Noah eh.
I smiled at how honest Noah got.
I can sense him all this time, the moment na umamin ako sa lahat, I thought it'll help him face his fears as well.
Pero I guess hindi lang siya handa before.
But now, it amazes me how much he's grown.
And that Narda.
I got my eyes on her.
"Rex! ano bang meron yang anak mo at nahawaan ang anak ko?!" rinig kong reklamo ni tito.
Napailing nalang ako.
It's not like this is a disease.
"kakabalik niyo lang pero gulo na agad! at ikaw Regina! anong ginawa mo sa anak ko?!" sigaw ni tito sa'kin.
I rolled my eyes at him, hindi naman ako bastos na tao pero pag si tito, ewan, he makes my blood boil na kahit tito ko pa siya, naiinis ako ng sobra.
"I didn't do anything." sagot ko at napatawa.
Mukha namang hindi niya nagustuhan dahil lalapitan niya sana ako para sampalin, but then humarang si dad.
"enough!" dad yelled.
Now, not my dad.
Kung dati hindi niya ako tanggap, things changed.
"itigil mo yang kakitiran ng utak mo! hindi yan sakit na nakakahawa!"
"I was wrong when I did not support my daughter years ago pero ngayon, hindi ko na hahayaang saktan mo siya! or ng kahit sino sa inyo. she is my daughter at tanggap ko siya! coz that's what parents' should do, mahalin ang anak nila kahit ano at sino pa sila!"
I stood from my seat at hinawakan si dad.
"dad, it's okay." pagpapakalma ko dito.
"let's go, umalis tayo dito. we should not associate ourselves sa gaya nila." dad said at nauna ng umalis.
I shot everyone na nasa dinner ng tingin as I shook my head, "it's not hard to open your minds, that's what smart people do." I said at sumunod na kay dad.
(2 weeks later)
"Noah, ano na naman 'to?" tanong ni Narda sa best friend niya.
Hindi niya kasi alam kung nasan sila, naka blindfold pa siya.
She does not have any idea what is happening.
"pambawi ko sa'yo for being the best friend." rinig niyang sabi nito at pinaupo siya.
She smiled, simula nung umamin si Noah sa dad niya at sa buong angkan nito, mas naging masaya ito.
Lagi din nitong pinaparamdam sa kanya na thankful ito sa kanya.
"Noah, that's what best friends do." sabi niya dito pero naka ngiti pa din.
Noah also helped her in many ways, nung siya naman din kasi yung umamin sa pamilya nito, sinamahan siya ni Noah.
Pinagkaiba lang, tinanggap siya ng pamilya niya. And she hopes na sana, matanggap din ng pamilya ni Noah yung totoong siya.
"oo na, sige na, alis na ako. tanggalin mo lang blindfold pag sinabi ng tatanggalin mo okay?" sabi nito sa kanya.
Hindi niya maintindihan anong meron, but she trusts Noah kaya tumango nalang din siya.
Ramdam niya ang pag-alis nito at pagdating ng isa pa.
She's supposed to feel scared, pero hindi eh.
Naramdaman niya ang pag-upo ng dumating sa harap niya.
She then heard a chuckle.
"you can take the blindfold off Narda."
sheeet! that voice!
Tinanggal naman niya agad ang blindfold and a smiling Regina is in front of her, holding a single rose.
"hi Narda." nakangiting sabi nito at binigay sa kanya ang rose.
She accepted it with a giddy smile.
takte. kinikilig ako. panong nandito 'to?
"someone told me you have a crush on me?" tanong ni Regina sa kanya that made her blush.
siraulong Noah yun!
Another chuckle is heard from Regina bago ito nagsalita ulit, "don't worry, the feeling's mutual." nakangiti ng sabi nito.
oh my God!
"so, date 'to?" lakas-loob na tanong ni Narda with a smile.
"yep, one of the many dates." sabi nito na kumindat pa sa kanya.
Noah, thank you!
