OUR LUSTFUL NIGHT

OLN - 5

Na-blangko ako bigla.

Can't even think of what to do.

I should ignore him. Right. Iyon dapat ang gawin ko. Ang baliwalain siya at magkunwaring hindi ko siya kilala.

I turned my back to them.

I know how to act. I'm not a Theater Club President for nothing.

I focused myself to my food and started eating. Like, I didn't even saw them, saw him. Pero ang likod ko, pakiramdam ko, butas na!

And, to my surprise, the three of them went to Ssen's and Alelie's back, facing me.

Ssen can't take his eyes off of the boys. She looked at them first, bago niya ako nilingon.

I didn't mind them. I started eating.

Nang matapos sa kinakain ko, sinunod ko agad buksan ang tsokolateng binili ko saka kinain 'yon.

I know they're watching me. I know he's watching my moves. At dapat ipakita kong hindi ako naaapektuhan ng mga titig niya!

At alam ko na pinagtitinginan na kami ng mga nasa Cafeteria.

Knowing that the 3 famous model are here with us.

I'm not a fan, though.

"Charisse." I looked at Ssen when she called me.

"What?" I asked her pretending like nothing.

Nakita ko ang pagbaling niya ng tingin sa tatlong nasa likuran nila ni Alelie.

I did the same. Acting like I don't care whoever they are.

I saw how Third Pascuelo, Tres, Alexandre or whatsoever, looked at me intently.

I raised my eyebrow at him before looking back at Ssen.

"Your friends?" I asked Ssen, still acting.

Ssen shrugged. Third's smile disappeared and his two friends looks confused.

I looked at Alelie. Nakayuko ito. Well, I should use Alelie as an excuse now. I know something's wrong with her. And, I know, one of these men here is the reason. Dahil nakikita ko ang mga titig nito sa kaibigan ko.

"Alelie, what's wrong? Mga bully ba ito? Binully ka ba?" I asked her, acting like I was so annoyed then I looked at the three, "What did you do?" I asked.

The three of them looked confused as their eyed Alelie.

Thank you, Alelie.

"I didn't do anything to her." Third said, defending himself.

I rolled my eyes on him. Shit!

Why is he here, anyway?!

Binalik ko ang tingin ko kay Alelie nang maramdaman kong hinawakan niya ang kamay ko.

"I'm fine." Alelie said.

I looked back to the three, trying to find the man that made Alelie this way.

Found you!

One of them was looking at Alelie, more on staring. Wah~ Talaga bang sa isang weird na paraan sila nagkita ng lalaking ito? Ano ba'ng trip ni Tita Ara? This guy... paano kung malaman nilang dalawa ni Alelie ang ugnayan nila? Haynako.

I stared at him. He's looking at Alelie and there's emotion on it. He loves Alelie. He loves my friend. Naka-move on na ba ang isang 'to? Nakilala ba nito si Alelie? Hindi ba ito nagalit?

Looks like he felt someone's looking at him. He looked at me. Cute.

What? Well, he's cute.

No one's backing off. I just looked at him and he did the same.
