A Dream

Chapter 2

"She loves it if I'm the one calling her Eirelle. She can't hate me anyway, we love each other too much."

Nagulat ako sa isinagot ni Peter, it made my heart go wild to the point that it might burst anytime. I can't even say anything. I can't let my feelings grow, I need to stop this. Peter doesn't even like me.

"Hoy Luna Eirelle!" Sinampal ako ng mahina ni Angela, that slap made me go back to my senses. I just realized that they've been calling my name. Ngumiti nalang ako sakanya saka inilipat ang mata kay Peter.

"Hey!" someone shouted.

Napalingon si Peter kaya lumingon na rin ako. Isang magandang babae ang lumalapit sa table namin, kumakaway at nakangiti.

"Hi Peter," bumeso 'yung babae kay Peter. Wew, sana all.

"Keziah, what are you doing here?" Peter greeted her with a hug. Keziah pala name niya.

"Dito na ako mag-aaral! Sina Jane at Ace rin!" Keziah answered.

"Okay." Peter said, nodding.

"'Di mo ba ako ipapakilala sa mga kasama mo?" she asked, smiling.

'Di nakaligtas sa mga mata ko 'yung pag-irap ni Peter. HAHAHA, naiirita na siguro siya, hindi kasi ganoon kahaba ang pasensya ni Peter.

"Keziah, this is Luna, and her friends. Girls, this is Keziah," Peter introduced us.

"Hi! My name is Keziah Achlyssus Garcia!" she said, offering her hand to Angela first. I guess she caught her attention.

"Angela Merkel, nice to meet you Keziah," Angela said, accepting her hand.

"I like your necklace, what's your name?" she said sticking her hand out to shake Mika's.

"Thank you, I'm Mika Corpuz," she said while shaking hands with Keziah. Ang friendly niya naman.

"Hello! I'm Chloe Marquez," Sumulpot bigla 'yung kamay ni Chloe. Hays, magkakasundo talaga 'tong dalawa, parehong maingay.

"Hi Chloe, I'm Keziah, kaano-ano mo 'yung owner ng school? You have the same last name." Keziah curiously asked.

"My family owns this school," Chloe answered, humbly.

"That's cool." she said, ako naman ngayon 'yung tiningnan niya.

"Hi, Luna." Keziah said, waving her hand.

"Hello, Keziah." I said, waving my hand back at her.

Narinig na namin 'yung bell kaya nagpaalam na kami sa kanilang dalawa.

Habang naglelecture 'yung teacher namin, si Peter pa din laman ng utak ko. Hanggang sa matapos 'yung klase iniisip ko pa din 'yung mga sinabi niya. Did he mean it? He definitely said he loves me, right? Wala naman akong problema sa pandinig diba?

"Urghh, damn it." Inis na inis na ako. Handang handa na akong mag-move on, he's making it harder.

"Oh, napano ka?" Angela asked.

"Nagseselos yata 'yan doon sa Keziah na iyon. HAHAHA!" Tinulak ko ng mahina si Mika dahil do'n, ugh! Mas lalo pang uminit 'yung ulo ko.

Nakita ko 'yung sundo ko sa labas ng gate kaya nagpaalam na ako sakanila. "Una na ako, bye girls" I waved my hands while walking towards the car.

"Bye!" Rinig kong sigaw nilang tatlo.

"Good afternoon Ms. Cortez." The driver greeted me, opening the door.

"Good afternoon, Mang Vin." I greeted him back kahit hindi good 'yung afternoon ko!

Tumingin nalang ako sa bintana, but I got bored kaya naglaro nalang ako ng games sa cellphone ko.

Natatalo na ako kaya pinatay ko nalang 'yung phone ko. Mas lalo pa akong nainis. Naalala ko na naman 'yung sinabi ni Peter. Siguro he love me as a friend lang, kaya he said 'we', there's no way he would know that I like him. hahaha.. right?

'Di ko namalayan na nakarating na kami sa bahay. Agad akong bumaba ng kotse at pumasok sa bahay.

"Ate Berlin, nakauwi na ba sina Mom and Dad?" Tinanong ko 'yung nakasalubong ko na maid.

"Hindi pa, Elle. Ang sabi ni sir, mamayang gabi pa sila makakauwi."

"Ganoon ba? Sige po, I'll eat my dinner in my room nalang."

Tumango naman si Ate Berlin at pinagpatuloy ang kaniyang ginagawa. Umakyat na ako tutal wala naman sina Mommy. Mabobored lang ako. Gagawin ko nalang 'yung homework ko.

I just finished my assignments kaya humiga agad ako sa kama. Napagod ako do'n ah.

'Di ko namalayan na nakatulog na pala ako kagabi, paggising ko umaga na kaya naligo na ako. I just wore my usual clothes. Uniform.

Pag-baba ko, nakita ko agad sina Mom and Dad nakaupo sa dining table kaya nagmadali ako. I have so many chikas to tell them.

"Mom! Dad!"

"Good morning, baby bear." Mom said kissing my cheeks.

"Good morning, princess." Dad greeted me so I hugged him.

"I have great news." Sabi ko habang kumukuha ng hotdog.

"What is it, hon?" Mom asked.

"I saw Peter yesterday at school, and he's a student there!"

"Really? Well, that's indeed a great news." Dad said, nodding.

"It's great, right?"

Dad continued reading his newspaper and mom just smiled at me.

Nagpaalam ako sakanila after I finished eating my breakfast, I want to go to school early.

Pagdating ko sa school, marami nang mga studyante. I guess I overslept. Late na naman ako. Nakita ko si Peter malapit sa gate kaya hinabol ko siya.

"Jaile!" Sigaw ko habang tumakbo. Ang bilis naman niyang maglakad. Kakarating ko lang sa school pero pagod na agad ako.

"JAILE!!" He finally stopped walking when he heard me and then greeted me with a smile on his face, "Good morning, Eirelle."

"Gago! Ang bilis mo mag-lakad, walang good sa morning ko. Letche!" Reklamo ko habang hinahabol ang hininga.

"Tsk." 'Yun lang at umalis na naman siya. What's wrong with this guy?

"Jaile! I have something to ask." This is the right time to ask him about what he said yesterday, right?

"What?"

"Peter!" Keziah called him. Damn it! That was my shot.

"Oh! Keziah, good morning." He smiled at Keziah.

"Good morning!" A girl greeted Peter.

Peter just smiled and waved his hand a little.

"And you are?" I curiously asked.

"Jane. Nice to meet you. Luna?" She knows me?

"You know me?"

"Oh come on! Keziah talked about you since last night." Napairap nalang si Jane.

I felt something touched my waist.. or someone?

"Good morning, sexiest babe on earth."
