LECKZY'S POV
Ilang buwan na rin ang nakalipas. Araw araw akong may natatanggap na chocolates, flowers, letters at kung ano ano pa sa secret admirer ko, kuno. Nakakainis na dahil lahat ginawa ko para mahuli kung sino sya pero wala talaga. Hindi ko sya mahuli huli. So what I did was I no longer accepted all that he gave me. Sometimes I give it to the church or I throw it in the trash. He seems to see that because I receive a letter or text from an unknown person. Just like today.
UNKNOWN NUMBER:
You're hurting me! Please, don't throw away what I gave you!
'Yan ang text nya sa akin ngayon. Tinignan ko ang red roses na tinapon ko sa basurahan. Sayang naman! Kinuha ko ulit ito bago napabuntong hininga.
ME:
Who the fuck are you!!! Pinagtitripan nyo ba ako?
I didn't wait for his reply and put my cellphone in my pocket. I went to church and gave the flowers. Then I went straight to the cafeteria and bought food and drinks. I felt my cellphone vibrate so I picked it up right away.
UNKNOWN NUMBER:
No, Love! Hindi kita pinagti-tripan. This is not the right time to know who I am, Love. I'm so sorry!
I suddenly felt sad. Why? Bakit ayaw nyang ipaalam sa akin kung sino sya? Malakas akong napabuntong hininga.
Tinignan ko ng matagal ang cellphone ko bago ko napagisipan na wag na syang i-text.
Nagtataka ba kayo kung bakit ako nasa labas at hindi kasama ang mga kaibigan ko? Well, our teacher kicked me out because I was caught sleeping in class. Great, right! Tss! I really studied the code he gave me a lot. Shuta! Until now I still can't get it. Bakit ba kasi code pa ang binigay nya.
Sabi nya, nasa code daw ang kasagutan. Ang hirap naman ng code na binigay nya. I'm not smart. Duh! I gasped. While I was eating I saw Clark enter the cafeteria. Nabilaukan ako kaya dali dali kong hinampas ang dibdib ko at uminom ng tubig. When I looked at him again I was surprised when he looked at me while frowning.
I quickly averted my gaze and drank the water again. I ate again and just ignored Clark's presence even though my chest was throbbing too much with nervousness.
"Are you okay?" His voice is deep and soft. Dahan dahan akong tumingin sa kanya. His eyes are filled with care and concern for me. Napalunok ako at umiwas ng tingin sa kanya.
"Y-yes, I'm o-okay!" Kinakabahang sabi ko. My hand is shaking dahil sa kaba. He nods at me.
"Can I sit here?" Tanong nya at tinuro ang upuan sa harapan ko. Nang hindi ako makasagot at tinaasan nya ako ng kilay. I immediately nodded and avoided looking at him again.
As I was eating I could feel Clark looking at me. I slowly looked at him before quickly looking away again. Narinig ko naman ang mahina nyang tawa.
"So cute! What's your name, Sweetheart?" He said. Namula ako dahil sa itinawag nya sa akin. I don't know if I will answer his question or just walk out.
I gasped before slowly looking at him. Hindi nya ako kilala samantalang ako matagal ko na syang kilala.
"Uhhmm...ahh L-leckzy!" Kinakabahang sabi ko.
"Wag kang kabahan, ako lang 'to oh!" He said and chuckled. I became even more embarrassed.
"Why are you talking to me?" Tanong ko sa kanya. Tumigil sya sa pagtawa at tumingin sa akin. Umiwas agad ako ng tingin.
"Why, is it bad to talk to you?" Tanong nya sa akin pabalik. Napatingin ako sa kanya.
"I just can't believe you're talking to me right now." I said. He frowned at what I said but he didn't speak anymore. For a few seconds no one spoke to the two of us until he spoke again.
