The Lady Who Can't Confess (Book 2)

TLWCC XXIII- Valentine's Day 1.1

Can someone enlighten me why I was here at the confession room where the student council prepared for this day? Wala naman atang tao na gustong makipag-usap sa akin tapos sa ganito pang masisinan? Am I not that pretty and snob that needed to be here!

My eyes are still covered with a blindfold or should I say a handkerchief. Hindi ko maisip kung sino ang gustong makausap ako o sadyang may tao lang talagang gusto akong pag-trip-an ngayong valentine's day.

Nakatali rin ang mga kamay ko sa upuan na parang nakidnap ako.

"Do you really need to tie my bare hands to stop me from removing this handkerchief covering my eyes?" I asked irritated.

I can hear them talking about something, more like they are whispering to each other and hiding something from me. Para rin silang kidnapper na nagpaplano kung anong pwedeng gawin sa akin. Either to kill me or make me suffer from a physical injury.

"Ofcourse, Ms. Trinidad. We have to do this because we are paid by someone. We had clear this you, righf? Kailangan namin itong gawin dahil napag-utusan rin kami.By the way, do you need something?" I was not mistaken, it's the Student Council President based from his voice I heard.

"I need something to eat and drink. Can you give me that? Ipabayad niyo sa nag-utos sa inyo, total siya naman ang may pakana nito." I bravely told them. Hindi ko naman kasi naubos kanina ang pagkain ko dahil sa biglang pagkainis kaya gutom na naman ako ngayon.

Gusto ko silang tarayan sa abot ng makakaya ko pero hindi naman tama 'yon dahil student council officers pa rin sila. And also, baka mabad imoression na naman ang STEM student kapag sinigawan ko sila. That was what Ma'am Olive told us.

Don't mess up everything specially on this speacial day. Well, ngayon lang naman kasi ako na-summoned ng Student Council sa confession room na ito dahil sa anim na taon kong dito nag-aaral, wala pa atabg nag-tangkang gumawa nito sa akin.

And also, hindi ko alam kung may nagbabayad ba sa Student Council tuwing Valentine's day na hindi ako masangkot sa ganitong program like this o makipag-date sa ibang estudyante dito. Someone will pay to them so that someone will not have a hunch to date with me or confess their feelings towards me. Ang binabayad ata ay 3,000 para hindu walang magtangakang makipag-date. I don't have an idea if that's the reason or nobody wants or likes me.

"Nasa mesa niyo na," a girl voice said.

Gusto ko na namang mainis dahil sa sinabi niya but I have to control my emotions. How can I eat those on the table if my eyes are covered by a handkerchief and my hands are tied? Wala ata silang common sense.

I want to tell all of those to them and slap that fact on their faces but I can't. Kung kagaya ata ako  Lalaine ay ginawa ko na 'yon at pinag-sisigawan sila. Knowing Lalaine, based from how she strongly asked a favor to me for us to have a conversation giving me hint that she's really this straight to the point. She's not a typical girl and also she's way very different from me.

"Oh, don't worry. I know you're already shouting to us in your mind by what we told you. Someone will take care of you and give you foods," anito at narinig ko ang hakbang nilang papalabas ng confession room.

Whoever behind this thing, hindi ko alam. Wala akong taong maisip na pwedeng gawin ito at kailangan pa talagang dalhin ako dito. And he/she really paid the Student Council just for this confessing thing? Ano naman ang kailangang sabihin sa akin?

Someone cup my face and I can feel his ward touch. How did I know that he is a boy? It is because of his touch and his hands is a bit rough compared to a gurl's touch.

"I'm sorry I have to do this," he said that made me shut my mouth. "Open your mouth," he instructed me and so I followed him.

Kaya pala pamilyar ang hawak niya at ang amoy ng confession room. He's the only who have that scent. A scent that one of the reason captures my heart.
