Part 3: SHE'S PRETENDING SHE DOESN'T KNOW


the party was on a sunday, Dec 17. even though her birthday was really on Dec.18.
between monday and wednesday of that week, tita cynthia was already checking up on me. so amidst all my requirements, i had to check up on all the guests and ask them for confirmation. once again,
the xuhs pipol were not a problem. i had to find away to contact the blockmates so i had to steal her blockmates' numbers from her phone.
that thursday,to my shock, angel texted me. it turns out, cathie had no more load so she borrowed angel's phone to text me. Cathie was aksing me if i wanted to watch a play with them. i told her i didn't want to.
i had to finish a movie for her and i had to start asking for confirmations.

i immediately began texting. I worte a an sms. it contained all the details about the party and the question if she was coming. it was meant for anna but i didn't know what ate me, i sent it to angel! the
implications came gushing out of me. if angel was with cathie and my number was unknown to her and if cathie was the only one who borrowed her phone, she might let cathie read it even before she does!
i waited and waited but no reply came. so i thought, she really must have read it and no angel. so that cathie would know about everything! i was going nuts! i felt like shouting my heart out and say all the
bad words this world ever created! i was so down, i wanted to cry. once again, depression ate me. when cathie arrived form the play, she was being her usual self. the perky girl that she was and she just
kept on going on about how unlucky she was because she saw charles (c.t.'s younger bro) and not chris watching the play with them. i said nothing. i was just observing her and i said to myself:
"SHE's PRETENDING she DOESN'T know."I was so sad and down, i thought my heart would fall of the ground.

friday came and i was still fuzzing over the thought that she knows. friday night and wengy came back again.
that night, i had to tell wengy about the problem. but i cannot talk to him about it aloud because cathie migth hear.
so, with my laptop and the notepad application, wengy and i had our own version of a CHAT!
cathie was busy doing some paper work. so while she was working, wengy and i stayed in my cave and discussed the problem and the other stuff via notepad. although we wer doing our best to be discreet about it,
we cannot help but laugh at ourselves and on the things we were talking about. i showed him the little of the movie i had for cathie. at some point, he was laughing actually, WE were laughing and that roused
cathie's curiosity. so we tired our best to hideit but she saw her face anyway. but unlike cathie's usual "kulit" self, when she saw a little of the movie and her face, she went back to doing her own thing. This is
HIGHLY UNSUAL. knowing her, unless her curiosity is satisfied she would never cease to bug you. this time however, she retreated right away with the little that she saw.This only strengthened my suspicion that
she actually knew about everything!
