"Ingat po kayo, Miss," Elvis said naman nang kababa ako sa car namin. I walked na papasok sa school, I don't understand why pero dito lang ako na-e-excite na pumasok. All my life parang ayaw ko na pumasok sa school but here parang mas gusto ko na nandito lagi.

"Hey, Aes," bati sa akin ni Trexia nang makapasok ako. I smiled naman and sat sa chair ko, Pay just looked at me and continued reading na.

"Late ka na naman ah," she said pa and chuckled. "Oo nga pala, nagreview ka na?" she asked me pero agad naman akong umiling. "Hala ba't hindi ka pa nag-aaral?" she asked pa.

"I didn't know na may exams 'e," I reasoned naman. "I'll start reading na," sabi ko pa and took my notebook and my book and started reading na.

Maya-maya pa ay nagstart na ang exams and it went well naman kasi nakinig naman ako the day na diniscuss 'yon kaya it's easy for me lang. After namin mag-exam we stayed in our classroom lang to wait for our next teacher.

Sumubsob lang ako sa desk ko and closed my eyes. I felt not so good today, parang bigla nalang naging masama pakiramdam ko. Parang the whole day nang masama pakiramdam ko and I don't know why.

"May masakit ba sa'yo?" tanong naman sa akin ni Trexia while we're walking na palabas ng classroom. It's uwian na kasi kaya gano'n.

"Feeling ko I'll be sick 'e," sabi ko naman and sighed. Nagtaka ako when Trexia smiled naman and poked my sides. "Why?" I asked her naman.

"And'yan na energizer mo," she said and walked na, pagtingin ko sa may gate nakita ko si Trevor. He's nakasandal on the gate and mukhang he's talking with the guard. He stood straight nang manotice niya na we're coming in his way.

"Ayiee," Trexia and Dexie teased us na naman agad. Tumawa naman si Trevor because of their reaction. He went palapit sa akin and kissed me on my forehead.

"Ba't parang matamlay ka?" he asked me naman. "May masakit ba sa'yo?" he asked and placed his hand on my forehead to check my temperature. "Wala ka namang lagnat. Masakit ba ulo mo?"

I smiled and shook my head naman. "I just don't feel good," sabi ko naman. He smiled and nodded nalang. He placed his arms on my shoulders habang nagwa-walk kami palabas ng school to assist me naman.

"You're driving?" takang tanong ko when we stopped in front of his car. Tumingin pa ako sa kaniya, I was about to scold him pa sana but he raised his license.

He smiled and bent down a little to kiss me on the lips. "My license na ako, pwede na kita ihatid at sunduin," he said pa and smiled. "Pasok na," he said pa and opened the door for me. Hinawakan niya ang kamay ko while I'm stepping papasok sa car niya.

I wore my seatbelt naman habang naglalakad siya papunta sa other side ng car. Pagpasok niya nang car ay kiniss niya pa ako sa cheeks before niya paandarin ang car niya.
