On Search: The One

CHAPTER 12

Forget about yesterday. Mga baliw sina mom and dad. Nakakahiya tuloy kay Paul me lebs.

"Ang lalim ng iniisip mo Ms.Trenorio? Why so?" Bumungga sakin si Yanny. Here at school canteen, eating. Well, patapos na kami eh. Malapit lang. Nagtataka nga ako ngayon kung bat absent si Paul. Why so? Or maybe it's about yesterday again.  "La lang." I said and stand up. Im full.

"Ok let's go."

While we're on our way to the library, "By the way, about Paul? Bukod sa nagmovie marathon, nakita ng parents mo yung post na yun na crush mo si Paul at tinukso kayong dalawa, may sinabi sayo si Paul? Tungkol sa tawag?" Huh? What call is she talking about?

"No. Never heard of it. Bakit?"

"Eh? Di sayo sinabi? Di ka naman kasi nagreply sa text ko nung Saturday eh." Ayun at naikwento na niya sakin yung convo nila ni Paul sa cellphone ko. Omg talaga hahaha!

"Ay, wait lang Camille, CR muna tayo please."

"Ok let's go." I answered.

While we're heading to the Women's CR, we heard something crazy.

"Help! Help!"   It's kinda a girl's voice. Or maybe a gay's? Hahaha. Wait, Camille, be serious. This is no joke.

We stopped for a moment. Me and Yanny looked at each other, totally confused ofcourse. But I think her face is priceless, she wants to pee, confused, and scared at the same time.

"What was that?" I asked and Yanny starts looking around. There's no one here. "Ugh. Maya nalang tara." She pulle me inside. "No I'll wait here." Sabi ko at nagnod siya. Tumakbo na yun sa loob.

"Ughhhh~ please. Stop. Ugghh~ S-Someone, h-help m-m-eee!"   What was that all about? Mas lalo akong nagtaka. "Yanny? Matagal pa ba yan?" I shouted in a average voice for her to hear.

"Tapos na nga." "Ay shit! You scared me." I whispered. Huh. It gave me a mini heart attack.

"Oh common! Just shut the f*ck up!"   Some guy just shouted. "Pleaseee. Let me goooo. Ahmmm."  Once again, I heard the girl.

"Maybe it came from the Men's CR?" Yanny said. I nodded. O men. I dont know what to do.

We are about to go inside when

"Girls? May problema kayo?" Tumingin ako sa likod at nakita yung lalaking nakangiti. Ancute. Pero, he's a stranger. "Yes. We heard someone moaning inside here." Yanny said. The guy nodded. "Ok. I'll handle this." Sabi niya.

Nung nakapasok siya, napaupo kami ni Yanny sa bench malapit sa CR. Pupunta na sana sa library eh. Sayang.

"AH SHIT!" May narinig akong bumagsak. Parang sako ng bigas lang eh. Bigla kaming pumasok ni Yanny sa loob ng Men's CR.

O__________O

There's this girl. And a man. I think the girl is being raped. Halata naman sa position niya sa may mirror and then almost na siya half naked, bali yung uniform, na unbutton na; buti may sando. And then her pretty hair is messy. Omfg! Nakita ko yung lalaki kanina na nagsalita samin na nakahiga na sa floor. Bagsak. Sako talaga ng bigas. The man (rapist xD) just ran outside.

Bigla namin tinulungan silang dalawa. Si Yanny sa babae, ako sa lalaki.

-----

Nacancel lahat ng klase ngayon dahil lang sa nanyari. Kanina pa kami dito it have been 1 hour already. The guy that helped us was now healing.

"Thank *sob* you talaga *sob* guys." The girl. She's Kristine. Kinabahan ako eh, andito yung mga Police kanina at buti nga't nakita na yung lalaki. Aish. Good for him.

Me and Yanny tried to comfort her. We're at the principal's office. Me,Yanny, Kristine and the guy; which we dont know yet. "Ok lang yun. Buti nga hanggang halik lang eh." Sabi ni Yanny. Yep. The stupid asshole kissed her on her cheecks,neck while masaging  her legs many times (that's her answer when the police interviewed her.)

"T-hank na rin s-sayo," Kristine said while reffering at the man that punched the rapist. (Again, that's the interview on what happened a while ago.) "No problem" the guy answered and smiled. Cute smile!

"So, Kristine, me and Camille wanna be friends with you, ok?" Yanny asked. She's new here, according to the principal, kakabalik nila dito sa Manila. "Ok lang sainyo?" She asked with a smile. "Ofcourse. Para may kasama ka na rin araw-araw." Sabi ko at ngumiti. I dont know what pulled me out but I just hugged her."Thank you sooo---"

"It's our pleasure." We said, including the guy.

"Well, kitakits tomorrow," Sabi ni Yanny at umalis na siya. Ngumiti si Kristine at nagpaalam na aalis na rin siya, pupuntahan pa daw niya yung love of her life daw dun sa basketball court. Haha, andun si Paul my loves ata ngayon eh :3

Which means na kami nalang nung guy natira dito. Nagtinginan kami at ngumiti siya. "Di ka aalis?" I asked. He stood up from his chair. "Sabay na tayo." Sabi niya at inayos yung buhok niya, kinuha yung bag ko. Sweet. Wait.

"Hey? Bag ko yan!" I said while taking my bag away from him. "Ano ka ba? Oh sige. Ikaw na bumuhat." Sabi niya at binigay yung bag ko sakin ng nakangiti. Hays. "Sige ikaw nalang. Tinatamad ako eh." Sagot ko at lumabas na kami sa office.

"Haha, ikaw pala si Camille. Nice name." Nagsalita siya. Omg.

"Haha. Oo eh." Sagot ko. Ano pa ba masasabi ko? XD

"Let's go to the basketball court." Yaya ni guy. Yieee! "Tara!" Sabi ko at tumakbo kami sabay papunta sa court.

Agad akong napagod sa ginawa ko kaya umupo ako sa may bench sa court. Ayun, nakikita ko si Paul. Ahhh! Shet! Ang gwapo niya talaga. Kala ko, di siya pumasok eh.

"Crush mo yun?"

"Ay jusko! Ketchup na banana, may isda at peanut butter!" Ay shit. Napasigaw ako sa gulat. Hay nako. Ayun at tumawa yung guy. Umupo siya sa tabi ko. "Sorry haha." "Sa susunod kasi, wag ganun. Nagugulat ako eh." Pati ba naman ako, natatawa rin sa ginawa kong kabaliwan.

"Oh. By the way, you like that guy?" Sabi niya habang turo turo niya si Paul. "Secret." Sagot ko. Haha. Wait, kala ko andito si Kristine? Di ko nakita eh. Nevermind.

"Oh? Sorry for being rude. Im Kurt. Kurt Park Leyan. And you are?"

O__________O

ANO DAW!? KURT!? KURT PARK!? REALLY!?

Omg! I shook my head. "I-I'm C-Camille. Ca-Camille Trenorio." I said. Omg. Nanginginig nako. "You ok?" Tanong sakin ni KURT! HUAAAAAAA!!! "O-Oo. Sige alis nako bye." Sabi ko at kinuha yung bag ko sakanya.

Tatakbo na sana ako nang hawakan niya kamay ko. "Wait."

Omgggg! "Bakit? Kurt?" I asked. He smiled. "Add me on fb. Kurt Park Leyan. Let's chat later." He said.

"I will. Bye."

"Ingat ka, Camille."

Omg na talaga todamax level na to!

Habang andito sa kotse, nagtataka na talaga ako. "Ok ka lang Mille?" Tanong ni Mang Connor. "Yeah." Sagot ko at tumingin sa window.

Questions just keeps on running inside me.

Is this it?
Is it really him?
KurtP?
