THIRD PERSON

As time goes by, unti-unti nang nawawala ang awkwardness between Kyline and Heeseung's group. Nakukuha na rin nilang magbiro sa isa't isa.

"Guys, kailangan ko na palang umalis. It's already 5:00. May pupuntahan pa kase ako eh. Claire, Shay una na ako ah" Paalam niya kila Heeseung pati sa dalawa niyang kaibigan.

"Oh sige, ingat ka ah" Nakangiting sambit ni Shayna sa kanya.

"Hyungs, balik na rin ako ng dorm. May project plan pa kase akong tatapusin" Paalam ni Niki sa kanya. Sumabay na rin si Sunoo at Jungwon since kailangan nilang makabalik ng maaga.

"So si Kyline, Jay, Sunghoon, saka si Jake is section Sapphire?" Tanong ni Heeseung.

"Yep kaming dalawa ni Claire yung Emerald"

"Emerald ka pala, Claire? Nung isang araw kase may nakita akong sinisipat ni Sunghoon sa section niyo eh" Pang-aasar ni Jake sa kaibigan. Napatingin agad ang nakababata sa kanya at sinamaan ito ng tingin.

"Talaga? Nakita mo rin pala yun pfft" Nagsimulang mamula ang pisngi ni Sunghoon. Ito ang isa sa mga dahilan kung bakit he doesn't trust his friends lalo sa mga secrets dahil they are really talkative.

"Si Heeseung hyung naman saka Jungwon is from section Ruby. Hindi talaga kami magkakasama sa section" Explain ni Jake sa dalawang babae.

"Guys, I need to go. May family dinner kami kasama yung business partner nila Mom. See you tomorrow" Paalam ni Jay sa kanila.

"Teka Jongseong, sabay na ako sayo. Dadaanan ko si Lola sa hospital ngayon" Nagpaalam na si Jay saka Jake sa mga kasama saka nagpaalam rin kay Yeonjun bago tuluyang lumabas ng cafe.

"Guys, sorry. I need to go na rin. Nag-text si Mama sakin ngayon lang eh" Only the three of them left at nagkaroon ng katahimikan sa buong paligid.

Shayna was trying to think some topic para naman hindi ma-boring ang dalawa niyang kasama nang marinig niya ang pagtunog ng cellphone niya. Claire looked at her at napansin na unti-unting lumuluha ang mata niya.

"Shay? What is happening?" Tanong niya sa kaibigan.

"Claire, si Daddy" Agad itong lumapit sa kaibigan.

"W-what happened?" Nag-aalalang tanong nito kay Shayna. She hates it when she saw her friends crying like this.

"Naaksidente si Daddy. I need to go. I'm sorry" Sambit nito saka kumaripas ng takbo not waiting for Claire's response.

"Claire? What happened to Shayna?" Tanong ni Yeonjun mula sa counter.

"She said that her dad got in to an accident"

Yeonjun immediately ran taking off his apron. Only Claire and Sunghoon was left at the cafe. It was really awkward pero naglakas ng loob si Claire na magsalita para magpaalam kay Sunghoon that she needs to go home.

"S-sunghoon, I need to go na rin. It's getting dark. I think you should go home too" Sambit niya kay Sunghoon.

She was about to leave but then she felt a hand grabbing her arms back.

"I-ikaw lang ba mag-isa?" Nauutal pang tanong niya sa dalaga. He doesn't know what's really on him but all he wants to spend more time with the girl and get to know her more.

"Yes?" Sagot naman ni Claire.

"Let's take the bus together. Parehas lang naman tayong uuwi sa Seoul eh. A-and besides, it's too dangerous kung mag-isa ka lang" Claire stared at her blankly.

"Ah sige" Sagot nito as Sunghoon smiled saka sumunod sa paglalakad sa dalaga.

"Tita! Thank you po! Mauuna na po kami" Paalam ni Claire sa mama ni Yeonjun.

"Oh siya, ingat kayong dalawa ha. Balik kayo ulit pag free time niyo" Nakangiting sambit nito sa kanilang dalawa.

"Bye po tita, thank you po sa foods" Nakangiting sambit ni Sunghoon saka kumaway pa rito.

"Ingat Sunghoon" She lastly said bago sila makalabas ng cafe. Nakasunod lang si Sunghoon kay Claire papunta sa Bus stop pabalik ng Seoul.

Napansin niya rin na manipis lamang ang suot nitong jacket. He was really sure that she was shivering. Napatingin siya sa jacket na suot niya, he was thinking of giving it to her but how? He was really shy.

Isinukbit niya na lang ang dalawang kamay niya sa bulsa ng pants niya staring at her back habang tahimik itong naglalakad sa unahan niya.

Malapit na rin sila sa bus stop and they just need to cross the lane papunta sa kabilang lane dahil doon matatagpuan ang bus stop. Napatingin muli siya sa dalaga at halos manlaki ang mga mata niya when he saw the stoplight turned to red at may sasakyan na papalapit sa dalaga.

Kaagad itong tumakbo papalapit kay Claire dragging her pabalik sa lane and preventing her from falling to the ground by supporting her waist by his arms. Take note of their faces that were already close to each other.

They could clearly see the faces of each other. Well, as for Claire, binabawi niya ang sinabi niya nung isang araw sa mga kaibigan niya. Because this man is hella fine. Ngayon niya lang din napansin ang isang maliit na nunal sa may bandang nose bridge ng binata. And also the one under his eyes.

It was cute tho.

Nang mapansin ni Sunghoon ang pag-iwas ng tingin ni Claire sa kanya ay agad niya itong binitawan. He could feel his heart again beating loudly for some uncertain reason.

"I'm sorry" Sambit ni Sunghoon sa kanya. Claire then shook his head. Hindi niya man lang pansin na nakatulala pala siya the whole time and didn't even notice that the stoplight was already red.

"No, it's fine. I'm sorry. Hindi ko napansin yung stoplight" Nahihiyang sambit ni Claire sa kanya.

They crossed the lane together saka naglakad papunta sa bus stop. There was only a seat for one at napatingin agad siya sa dalaga na mukhang pagod na rin.

"Claire, sit here for a while" Sambit ni Sunghoon sa kanya showing her a sweet smile.

Claire could feel her heart melted on how his smile was cute and sweet. Napaiwas ang tingin niya dito saka tumanggi.

"No it's fine. You can sit" Sambit niya sa dalaga.

"You must be tired. Don't mind me" Nakangiting sambit niya muli sa dalaga wanted her to rest and seat for a while habang nag-hihintay.

Claire sighed in defeat saka umupo sa available seat sa bus stop while waiting for the bus to arrive.
