01• First Meet

[CRIS]

" Hindi ka pa tapos?" - tanong ni levi habang sumisilip sa laptop ko. we're still in school to finish a lot of works, since tomorrow is the first day of class— and as a SSG president, it's my responsibility to help the teachers and staffs

"Almost done. uuwi ka na?"- i ask him while i take a look outside from the open window— it's raining

" Nooo, i'll stay here for a while. or we should go home together.. kasi nakakatakot mag lakad sa hallway" - mahabang paliwanag nito na ikinatawa ko nalang ng mahina

"First time?—

"Hyung, last time na naglakad  ako sa hallway mag isa bigla akong hinarang nila ace! buti nalang leo hyung was on his way to the Gym" - he exclaimed while sinusuot  ang headset at pumikit

well, yeah- umiling nalang ako at nagpatuloy sa ginagawa— Hinding hindi sila tatantanan ng grupo ni ace dahil sa nangyari sa past —dinaig pa si mike enriquez

While i was reviewing i heard someone shouting in the hallway..

"Levi..." - i tried to wake levi up

"Naririnig mo ba ?"- i ask him and he look around

"Nanakot ka ba?" - tanong niya at umiling ako. i closed my laptop at tumayo para sumilip sa hallway

i saw ma'am divina—our subject teacher  with a guy— a tiny guy.

"Sino yan?"- bulong ni levi na nasa likuran ko and i just shrugged my shoulder

" E-eomma.." - the guy is crying..trembling, shaking while trying to reach ma'am divina's hand

" I'm not your mom! isa pa, wala akong anak na baliw! 'wag na 'wag mo akong tatawaging ina at 'wag ka ng magpapakita sa'kin!" - pagkasabi nun ni ma'am divina ay tinulak niya ang lalaki at umalis

Tumakbo ang lalaki papalapit kay ma'am divina sa gitna ng malakas na ulan pero tinulak lang siya ulit nito dahilan para mapaupo ito sa damuhan

"Sh*T " - levi quickly run to Get the guy... as always, levi can't bear looking at somone suffering.

"E-eomma"- rinig kong tawag nito kay ma'am divina. levi help him to  stand up pero hindi siya tumayo.. he keeps on calling ma'am divina—- i never knew that she has another son.

levi had no choice but to lift him up at pinasok sa classroom kung saan kami tumatambay— inabot ko sa lalaki ang extra jacket ko dahil basa siya—kahit si levi

i looked at the guy.. he looks normal but weird at the same time.. he's shaking so hard while crying. playing his lil fingers na natatabunan ng sweatshirt niya

" h-hey! don't cry, its okay" - pagpapakalma ni Levi—  but still, the guy is still crying — he's crying like a child

"E-eomma..." - bulong nito between his sobs.. i heard a deep sigh from levi.. kinuha ni levi ang panyo sa bulsa at binigay sa lalaki

" What's your name? " - mahinahong tanong ko— he looked at me pouting.. patuloy parin sa pag agos ang mga luha niya

" H-hani "

" Honey !? " - tanong ko dahil di ko masyadong narinig— he wiped his tears using the back of his hands and he smiled at me— uh?

" HaaaanJiiiiii" - mahabang sabi   nito na ikinatango namin ni levi

" Where do you live ? ihahatid ka namin " -  malamig na tanong ni levi habang nakatingin sa labas

napansin kong may hinahanap siya sa bulsa niya—- the way he move, para siyang bata.
