Chapter Sixty: With the members
- - -
Shamie's POV
Kasalukuyan akong naglalakad, hoping that I would see the person who kissed me. Pero hindi ko sya naabutan. Ano 'yon?
Kiss and Run?
I'm walking, heading to the waiting room, hoping that the girls would be there. I badly need someone to talk to.
But then, luck was not on my side this time. Wala sina Ers sa waiting room. Nandito ang ilan sa nga members. Si Thaniel, I thought he's here too. Pero wala, kiss and run talaga. Si Walter ang naabutan ko dun sa pwesto ko. Oo nga pala, nay sasabihin daw sya sakin.
"Oppa, have you seen the girls?" I asked Walter and sat beside him. He knows naman kung sino ang tinutukoy ko.
"They told me to tell you that they'll just wait for you inside your dressing room," sagot nya sa tanong ko.
"Hmm," I said with matching tango-tango pa. Tapos kunwari, I'm finding something sa mga gamit namin dito, pero wala naman talaga. I'm actually waiting for him to say something. Yung dapat ay sasabihin nya kanina.
"Shamie," he started. Eto na ata, sasabihin na siguro nya. I didn't speak up and just look at him with my questioning eyes.
"I like you," dire-diretsong sabi nya, walang paligoy-ligoy. Maybe, afraid that someone might interrupt him again. But-- Wait, what?!
"I'm sorry, I think I misheard you. What is it again?" I asked, hoping that what I heard is not true. Malay nyo kasi, matulad kay Harley, diba?
"Shamie I like you. I really really like you. Since the first day, since the very beginning. I'm not pressuring you, I just want to admit what I truly feel. And I hope you would let me," Walter made it clear. He likes me. He really really likes me.
Napa-pikit nalang ako ng mariin after I realized that I didn't misheard anything. Napapikit ako, hindi dahil sa tuwa, hindi dahil sa inis. Kundi dahil sa-- dahil sa-- Ay basta! Napapikit ako!
"Shamie," tawag ni Walter kaya minulat ko yung right eye ko. Yung right eye ko lang, kung bakit? Hindi ko din alam.
"Just forget anything if you're not comfortable with it," he said and flashed a smile, but not the sweet one. Now, I'm feeling bad again. And I don't know why.
"I'll t-take a rest f-for a little w-while," sabi ko nalang and stood up. I'll go to my dressing room.
"Shamie, sorry... " Walter said, he also stood up. And he's now holding my hand.
"No, it's okay. Admitting your feelings to someone is not a sin and will never be," sabi ko sa kanya kahit na hirap padin akong i-absorb lahat.
Kanina, na-kiss and run ako. Tapos ngayon, may umamin na gusto daw nya ako. Myghad, nakakaloka!
Naglakad na ako papunta sa dressing room ko, and there, I saw the girls playing some board game. Di ko lang alam kung anong tawag.
