Tell Me How (Isla De Verde Series #3)

Chapter 6

"My, God! Pakalmahin mo 'ko, Feli dahil kung hindi ay sasabunutan ko ang babaeng 'yon!" Nagtatangis ang mga ngipin na ani Dein.

I chuckled. Dinala ko siya rito sa cafeteria at nakabili na rin ng pagkain para sa aming dalawa. Tuloy parin ang awarding na kasalukuyang nagaganap sa court at siguro ay para na iyon sa mga winner sa sports.

"Kalmahan mo lang, Dein. Nawawala ang angel face mo e." I said, chuckling as I sipped from my strawberry juice.

"Talagang mawawala! Ikaw ba naman i-provoke ng demonyita? Sinong hindi mahahawaan?" She fanned herself as she looked up on the ceiling.

Napatigil ako sa pag-inom ng juice ng mamataan ang marahan at malalaki ang hakbang na paglalakad ni Agamemnon.

He roamed his eyes around as if he's searching for someone and when his eyes met mine, he immediately walked towards our table.

"I knew I'd find you here." aniya, hinihingal na hinila ang upuan sa harapan ko at naupo roon. Ipinatong niya ang dalawang braso sa lamesa.

"What happened to you?" Takang tanong niya kay Dein na nakabusangot ang mukha at halata ang inis at frustrasyon.

"Naka-encounter lang ng alagad ni Satanas!" Dein rolled her eyes. I almost choked on my juice because of what she'd said. It's funny though.

Napailing-iling na lamang si Agamemnon at sumeryoso ang itsura nito pagkatapos. I can't help it but to stare at him now that he's not paying attention to me.

Sa ganitong paraan ko lang kasi iyon nagagawa e. I'm feeling shy whenever he's looking at me and I couldn't look back at him. Noon naman ay hindi ko pa iyon nararamdaman pero simula noong maging magkalapit kami ay nag-iba ang turing ko sa kan'ya.

"By the way, paanong ikaw ang lumaban noong pageant? You're not the representative." I pointed out.

Napakamot ito sa kan'yang batok at ngumiti. I saw how his pearl white teeth exposed. I gulped. He's a walking temptation, I could say that.

"The representative had a stomach ache that's why," He shrugged. I nodded.

Nang mawala ang atensyon sa akin ni Emon ay muli ko siyang pinagmasdan.

He's not just a mere friend to me now. I like him as a man. He's sometimes clever but most of the times, serious and caring. Siguro iyon narin ang isa sa mga dahilan kung bakit ko siya nagustuhan?

And I've also noticed that he loves math and sketching buildings. Nabanggit din sa akin ni Dein na may balak si Agamemnon na kunin ang architecture na course sa kolehiyo. If he's that smart, would I be able to reach him and get him close to me?

"Feli? Feli!" Napabalik ako sa wisyo nang marinig ang malakas na boses ni Dein. I blinked a few times only to see the both of them looking at me with wondering eyes and curious gazes.

I awkwardly laugh and started digging in on my food. Hindi ko na sila pinansin pa nang pilit nila akong tanungin kung ano ba ang dahilan at bakit ako nakatulala.

I can't bear to let Agamemnon knew about what I truly feel about him! What if he distance himself from me just because of my romantic feelings? Ayokong mangyari 'yon...I just wanted to be with him. Always. That is all.

Days passed by like a sand of a hourglass. Hindi ko rin maintindihan kung bakit ang laki ng pagkainis sa akin ni Clarissa. She would always picked on me so that we'll fight which I find nonsense.

Why would I get back on her if she's not on her right state of mind, right? Only people with prick mindsets would do things such as that.

I was busy walking on the hallway when I felt someone's presence beside me. Sinabayan ako nito sa paglalakad. I lifted my gaze only to see Jethro, one of the guys in our school who likes me.
