Jap called me last Tuesday night and asked how I was. Sakto naman na kakatapos lang ng dramafest ko noon so i told her, “Okay naman. kakatapos lang umiyak.” Said it like it was the most normal thing in the world. After all, it was just a cathartic cry from all the bs that was going on in my life that time. She panicked and demanded that we should see each other the following day. I said yes even if I wasn’t sure if she’d really get her lazy bum out of Paranaque to visit me in Makati.
And she really did!
Brought her to Banapple in Ayala Triangle Gardens. It was her first time there. (Read about my 1st time in Banapple Ayala Tri here.) I had the Hickory Smoked Barbecue Country Ribs (180php) and Carrot Honey Cheesecake (110php). Her dinner was the Herbed Chicken Rolls with Basil Cream Sauce (175php), Starry-Berry Cheesecake (90php) and several cups of cappucino. Jap is a coffee-addict, btw.
She said I had her very worried when I said I cried over *********** and I told her “Wushu! Gusto mo lang gumimik kaya mo ako pinuntahan!” She said sira ulo daw ako and that she wanted to be there for me because she’s not used to seeing me as the one in need of help. Because I’ve always been the one there for them in their struggles. Awwwww… :,) I have the best friends in the world! Ang titindi nilang mambola. :p
There was a stray cat under our table. Jap laughed when she saw it and joked that even if I keep on saying that I hate cats, the universe keeps on bringing them to me because I love cats and just won’t admit it. I think Jap is a crazy cat lady. I really don’t like cats! o_0
Went to Hao Diner after our delish Banapple dinner. It’s also her first time in Hao. (Read about my 1st time in Hao here.) We shared a pot of Spiked Margarita Tea (220php). Once finished, I ordered a glass a glass of red wine (120php) and she got a glass of coffee. Oh, the differences that we have! Normal ako. Abnormal siya. Bwahahahaha!
She asked how long we’ve been friends and I really feel she was just having a senior moment or just really bad in math because she asks that question to me like twice a year. I told her our bestfriendship is turning 14 years late this year. And I told her, yes. Ganong katagal ko na siya pinagtiya-tiyagaan. Hihi! But seriously, she’s the first real bestfriend I’ve ever had and I look forward to more years with Jappy. 🙂
I love you, Jap The Cat! Advance happy birthday! 🙂
