Haphazard Principles

Prologue

“Tatie for how many times will i tell you, STOP STALKING HIM!!!” yes, that's Alliyah, my BEASTfriend.

“I wasnt !” I lied 

“You were, oh look you just viewed his story on instagram!” sabi nya sabay kuha ng phone ko

“Let me liy alam mo naman that im still struggling to get over him diba?” i defended myself looking dumb

“For pete's sake Tatiana! It's been 2 years! Ano pabang gusto mong sabihin ko for you to know that he's now happy with someone else!” well... she's right.

It's been 2 long years at kung tutuusin, I can say that Alex had already moved on. He's now happy in his instagram ang facebook stories. And me...?

Im still miserable.

“Wag na natin syang pag usapan, Liy. Im trying to get over him by hurting myself so i can accept the fact that...he's no longer mine”

I nearly cried so i changed the topic.

“How about my enrollment in your school? I can't wait for us to be together sa iisang paaralan!!!” i said with excitement.

Yes I've transfer school since it's my senior year naman so I don't really bother.

“How about check your email?” she said sarcastically and rolled her eyes.

“Yes! -- Aah I forgot!”

Dali dali kong in-open yung email ko and saw the notice the school sent me! I got accepted! Nothing new tho.

We also had to leave everything behind, my friends, our home, the place where i spent my childhood.

I was preparing for my first day in my new school. I want a good impression so i came early. I always transfer school every year because of my parent's work so this feelings isnt new anymore.

I was combing my hair when a thought of him came into my mind... I remember him always playing with my hair. A drop of water later slowly dropped in my face.

No, bawal akong umiyak! First day ngayon!

I hurriedly wiped my tears and packed my things up and went to school. Napag usapan namin ni Alliyah na mag kita sa gate.

When we already met, we walked inside. It was still early so she gave me a tour.

“Eto yung canteen” turo nya sa kanan.

“Dito papunta sa Computer Lab, dito naman papuntang fiel--” hindi nya natapos ang sasabihin nya nang may narinig kaming nakakabinging pang tunog nag bell hudyat na mag mag sa-start na ang Flag Ceremony.

Dali dali akong hinila ni Liya at nakipag sabayan sa mga babaeng nag sisi takbuhan din papunta sa field na napakalayo. Hindi kami naka abot National Anthem dahil sa layo ng corridor sa field.

Ang naabutan nalang namin ang mga babaeng nag sisihiyawan sa isang tinig na nang gagaling sa stage.

“Ano bang meron Liy?” tanong ko sakanya

“Di mo sila kilala? Isa sila sa mga kilalang banda sa mga schools!” i dont care either, i only am busy doing my thing and im not into bands.

“AAAAAAAAAAA KEVIN I LOVE YOU!!!!” sigaw nang babaeng halos ma himatay sa kilig.

“HOY AKIN SI KEVIN!!!!” sabi naman nang isa.

“JOSH AAAAAA NOTICE MEEEEE!!!!”
“ELIAN PA LAHI PO!”
“BAMIE ANG CUTE MOO, PA KISS NAMAN OH!”
“KEVIN AKIN KA NALANG PO”

Ang wild nd mga babae sa University na to ah?

I was just vibing to what they were singing.

‘I take on step away... then i found myself coming back to you my one and only you’

I remembered Alex again...

I gazed my eyes and it landed on the band's singer. I think he was the Kevin.

Wait... is he looking at me?! No ! No !

I am panicking lol, ANONG GAGAWIN KO???

I looked into the other direction at buti nalang di na sya tumitingin. Lol, i hate eye contacts !!! But he's kind of cute i can say...

Tapos na yung kanta ng banda pero yung hiyawan ng mga baliw na babae ay buhay na buhay pa rin.

While walking in the corridors to my first class i remembered what happened earlier. Was he really looking at me?

I reminiced his features. You can say that hes everything. Mapapansin nya kaya ang isang katulad ko?
