The Guy Who Doesn't Like Me

Seventeen - Confession

Hey, you. I've been MIA for a couple of months now and I apologize for updating late. Anyways, here's chapter 17 to fix everything. I can't promise I'll be uploading regularly because of school but I'll do my best to manage my time.

By the way, hello @Milranz  thank you for you adding my story to your reading list and hello as well to @Johanna181073 I saw your comment from last month. Thank you for your neverending support to my story.

Enjoy!

"Ready na ba kayong lahat bukas?" Tanong samin ni Ma'am Lorraine. Tomorrow na kasi yung pageant e. Though di naman kami kasama ni Matthew don. Tamang judges lang kaming dalawa ni Matthew.

"E kayo ba Gabby and Matthew? Ready na ba kayo magjudge?" I nodded and napatingin naman ako kay Matthew who's currently looking at me. He smiled and so I did too.

"Yes, Ma'am. Sa katunayan nga po, mamaya, magreready kami ni Gabby sa mga susuutin namin." Sabi niya and I nodded. Bigla naman akong napatingin kay Matt who's currently looking at me na para bang confused siya.

"Okay so, good luck everybody. Pumunta na ulit tayo sa gym for practice." Sabi ni Ma'am Lorraine and everyone stood up. Yung girls, they brought their heels out. Nowhere to go nanaman kami ni Matthew.

Tumayo na ako and pinuntahan ako ni Jannelle.

"So saan kayo?" Makahulugan ang tingin niya at napangiti na lang ako.

"Uhm, gusto mong kumain, Gabby?" Singit naman ni Matt and umiling na lang ako. Ayako namang bibilhan nanaman niya ako ng kung ano-ano e kaya ko namang bumili for myself.

"Funny but, sabi ni Matthew, paghahandaan niyo raw susuutin niyo? Ano yon pupunta si--"

"Yes. Actually, pupuntahan namin ngayon yung handler ko kasi don kami nagpagawa ng gown and suit." Sabi ko habang inaayos ko ang gamit ko.

"So, magkikita na lang kayo sa handler mo?" Napatingin naman ako sa kanya. Andami kasi niyang tanong. I felt like he's interrogating me as if he's my boyfriend.

"Uhm, no. Sabay kaming pupunta don." Sabi ko and continued fixing my bag nang marinig kong may sasabihin pa siya pero Jannelle interrupted him.

"Alam mo, Matt, hayaan mo na muna yang si Gabby. Magjujudge yan bukas and dapat paghandaan mo talaga kasi pinaghahandaan niya, right?" Nakatingin lang kami kay Jannelle and I smiled at her and kay Matt.

"Right, paghandaan niyo talaga. Ako magjujudge sa inyo." Nakatingin lang sakin si Matt and blank ang expression niya. Mga ilang seconds siya nakatingin and he sighed.

"Okay. How 'bout--"

"Gabriella, tara na?" Napatingin naman kami sa nagsalita and sino pa? Edi si Matthew.
