"Ano Kia? Nadala mo ba ung pinapadala ko?" natataranta kong tanong sa kaibigan ko habang nagmamadaling inaayos ang costume. Ako kasi ang gaganap bilang Laura sa costume parade namin sa school. Kada taon, bago matapos ang school year ay nagkakaroon kami ng costume parade habang suot ang mga napiling karakter. Florante at Laura ang naitakda sa aming mga nasa ikawalong pangkat at Ibong Adarna naman ang sa mga ikapito. "
"Hala! Sorry friend. Naloabat kasi ako nag nagmamadali na din kaya hindi ko na nacheck yung message mo." ani Kia.
Paktay! Nagkaroon ako ng wardrobe malfunction habang sinusuot ko ang costume. Napunit ang bandang side ng dress na nagmuka nang slit. Medyo mataas ito kaya naman pinadala ko si Kia ng panahi pero hindi niya ito nadala. Natataranta na ako habang naghahalungkat sa aking bag baka sakaling may naligaw na pardilbe o ano pa mang maaari kong gamitin para medyo maisara ang punit.
" Lana ano bang hinahanap mo dyan?" confused na tanong sakin ni Miguel. Si Miguel ang napiling maging Florante. Ilang minuto nalang ay malapit nang magsimula ang parada. Mabuti pa si Miguel at kumpleto at ready na ang costume. " Nasira kasi tong dress e. Tapos wala naman akong mahanap na pwedeng panahi or pansara manlang sana".
Inalok ako ni Miguel na hubarin ko na daw muna saglit ang dress ko at sya na ang bahala. Naalala ko na magaling nga palang manahi ang mama ni Miguel at malamang ay tinuturuan sya nito. Pero, walang panahi o di kaya ay pardilbe manlang sana. Nakita ko si Miguel na kinuha ang gunting at ginupit ang dress.
"Miguel! Pinapalala mo lang!" naiinis kong sambit. " Calm down Lana, i got this". he confidently said.
Naiiyak na ako at kinakabahan habang tinitignan ang ginagawa ni Miguel. Hindi kami ganoon ka close ni Miguel pero siguro maituturing ko naman syang kaibigan kase kaklase ko siya.We don't have much interactions kase he's not to friendly to everyone. Maliit lang ang circle of friends niya at sila sila lang din ang mga kinakausap niya. He's tall, has a pale skin, and not gonna lie he's cute and attractive. Madami ding nagkakagusto sa kanya from other sections and grade levels. He's kind of famous pero hindi naman to the campus crush peg.
Tinignan ko ang aking relo."Five minutes nalang magsstart na" pagmamadali ko kay Miguel. "I know! so can you please stop bothering me so i could focus! " Naiirita nitong sagot.
Yeah, Miguel is attractive pero malambot sya. I actually think he's gay. Most of his friends are girls and he does not even interact much sa mga lalaki naming kaklase. Super lamya nya din gumalaw. I don't know if he's gay or he's just acting like that cause he is the only boy in their family and all of his sisters are girls.
"Here!" si Miguel.
Inabot sa akin ni Miguel ang dress na i think inayos nya using tali tali method. I looked at him in amazement. He's sweating but he still looks good. And unlike other guy he does not look dugyot. I guess that is a perk of being a feminine guy. His costume also suits him. He looks like a prince.
"Ano?! Gusto mo palitan pa kita?!" sambit niya sabay snap ng daliri nya sa harap ng muka ko.
I did not notice na i was already looking at him for so long na pala. Embarrassed, tumakbo ako papuntang bathroom sa likod ng canteen para magpalit.
I got out of the bathroom and then ran papunta sa mga kasama kong in costume na din. Luckily, I got there in time and may mga mas late pa naman nang onti. I don't even know how my dress turned out after Miguel fixed it kase wala namang mirror sa bathroom and nagrarush na ako. Still catching my breath when the parade started.
Miguel me his offered his arm " It suits you" he said while moving his face closer to me. Is he gonna kiss me? Why is he looking at my lips like that. Woah, why am i nervous. I feel my chicks burning. Am I blushing?.
