Falling

Chapter 2

Habang kumakain kami nagsalita si Mia

"Hey" tawag ni Mia

"What?" Tanong ni Elli

"Look at the entrance" turo ni Mia sa entrance

Napatingin naman kami ni Mia don at may nakita kaming tatlong lalaking pumasok.Naagaw nila ang pansin ng mga tao sa cafeteria,yung ibang babae pa nga parang nangingisay sa kilig.

"You know those guys Aki?" Tanong ni Mia sakin

"Yeah..I see them everyday here" sabi ko habang hinihigop yung coke ko

"Oh you know them?!" Tanong ni Elli

Tumango nalang ako.Nasa pilahan na silang tatlo at umoorder na.Hindi ko nalang sila pinansin at inubos na ang pagkain ko.Pero itong si Mia ay panay parin ang kwento tungkol sa crush niya.

"Look how cute he is! If I were him,liligawan ko na ang sarili ko..Duh?saan kapa makakahanap ng gantong ganda no?" Puri niya sa sarili niya.Ang tinutukoy niyang crush niya ay yung kwento niya sakin sa cr kanina.

"Crush mo si Zymon Lee?!!" Gulat na tanong ni Elli sakanya

"Yea so? Oh my,dont tell me may gusto karin sakanya??!"

"Hey Mia shut up..Wala ng kabuluhan yang sinasabi mo" sabi ni Elli

"Oh well,I'm just kidding hahaha"

Tapos na akong kumain at tapos narin sila.Hindi na namin pinansin yung tatlo at pumunta sa kami sa klase.Wala pa yung lec kaya nag kwentuhan muna kami.

"I saw him kanina sa gate.Geez he never fail to amaze me!"Zymon again?

"You're crazy Mia.How can you be so crazy over a boy?"sabi naman ni Elli

"Hey OA mo magsalita ah.Im not SO CRAZY over him,it's just that im really amaze in his features that's all"sagot namn ni Mia

Inirapan ko siya"It's the same"

"Oh c'mon Aki! It's different!"tanggi niya padin

"Yeah yeah whatever" sabi ko nalang

"By the way,you Akira Francisco..do you have a guy you like this days? I'm just curious kase"tanong ni Mia

"Kaya nga..Wala pa akong naririnig na nagka gusto ito sa lalaki..Are u even human?"di makapinawalang tanong ni Elli

"Makakausap moba ako kung hindi ako tao Elli?"sarcastiko kong sabi

"That's not what we want to know Akira"sabi naman ni Mia

"Well, diko alam eh..Feeling ko kasi may nangyari sakin sa past na kailangan kong harapin so I think I don't have any time to enter relationships now"ngisi ko

"Are u kidding me Aki?! Nauntog ba ang ulo mo? You're fooling us!"sabi ni Mia

"Just kidding guys..Wala akong mahanap eh..And also I have you guys,I don't need boys"ngisi ko sakanila

"Ahh how sweet of you Aki..ngayon kalang naging sweet sa Amin" at niyakap nila akong dalawa

"Now back off"at tinulak ko sila palayo

"Hey! How could you?!"reklamo ni Elli

Tinuro ko yung lec at natauhan naman sila at pumunta sila sa upuan nila na nagmamadali.Napatawa nalang ako.

After mag lecture at wala na kaming klase for the urgent meeting sa gymnasium.I think it's about the upcoming school festival here in campus where everybody can do whatever they want.

Habang naglalakad kami papunta sa gym,napansin namin na parang may mga iniba silang kulay at disenyo ng school.Yung bleachers na dating puti,ngayon ay ocean blue na.Pumunta kami don sa bandang likod kasi hindi na kami makakadaan papunta sa harap sa dami ng tao.

"Good afternoon to all students of Savir
Ore High! Sorry for the sudden meeting..We just need to announce the Schools Festival this upcoming June 20..All booths are allowed but same as ever..NO ALCOHOL AND CIGAR ALLOWED..Alam ko ang iba sainyo nagdadala ng mga iyon kahit bawal..I hope you listen to me this time..Especially boys..Are we clear?"tanong ni Dean sa lahat

"Yes Deann!"

"Good..So in June 20,same as before we will have different activities and games..And also the Pageant for King and Quenn of Savir high"

"That's the most exciting activity"biglang sabi ni Mia

Nagtaka naman ako"And why??"tanong ko sakanya

Tinignan niya lang ako atsaka ngumisi.

Oh fuck.

"You didn't register my name, did you?"matalas ang tingin ko sakanya

Nagkibit balikat pa siya"I didn't"

"WE did it" ngisi naman ni Elli

I knew it.

"I told you guys I don't want to join that pageant!" singhal ko sakanila

It's more accepting kung tinanong muna nila yung opinyon ko baka sakaling payagan kopa sila.

Ngumisi lang Lalo sila "Oh c'mon Aki..We just want YOU to boost your confidence.. Your beautiful and kind..and smart too..Ganyan ang tunay na taglay ng isang Reyna kaya your perfect for the position" sabi ni Elli

"But still,I really don't know if i can do it..I never participated a such.." Wala nakong magagawa nanjan na yan.

Gusto ko rin talaga ma boost yung confidence ko para naman di ako nagmumukhang tanga sa harap ng ibang tao.

"Duh!  We're here Aki!" Ani Mia.

Napangiti naman ako "Yeah I know"

"So i expect na many students will participate at yung ibang sumali na dati at nanalo,wag nang sumali sa same activity..Let's give chance to others okay??" dagdag ni Dean.

"Yes Deann!"

"Okay,so all of you can go back to your rooms but you don't have any classes anymore..Me and your teachers will still have a meeting about this..Go back to your rooms and don't wander around okay? You can go now" sabi ni Dean sabay baba sa stage.

Maingay naman ang mga estudyante kasi wala ng klase at alam ko na kahit binawalan sila gumala sa loob ng school,they will still do it.Ganyan naman lagi.
