I didn't even whispered a word after we're done eating. His post bothered the heck out of me.

Nang-aasar ba siya? Close ba kami? Kainis. Umani kaya 'yon ng 3k plus hearts. May kung ano-ano pa akong nababasa sa comment.

Some of them knew me because of the modelling agency I'm in, some of them is mga nakasama ko sa organizations, club, and council while 'yong iba is mga naka interact ko sa leadership training.

I heaved a sigh.

"What's wrong, Scarlet?" Yohan asked beside me with a silly smile plastered on his face.

Since when does this dude became smiley? It's not like we've known each other for months. Bilang nga lang interactions namin, Minsan barahan pa.

Hindi pa rin ako mag mo-move on sa debate namin recently. Napikon ako roon.

"Yohan, delete mo 'yong post mo. O kahit 'yong mga pictures mo nalang itira." Ani ko habang nag lalakad. I don't have anything else to buy and so does he. Kaya after naming kumain, napagdesisyonan kong umuwi nalang.

Supposedly ako lang talaga sana 'yong uuwi nang mag-isa. Pero hindi ko alam at bakit nagpumilit itong si Yohan na ihatid ako. Hindi ko alam saan 'to pinaglihi ng mama niya.

"They already saw it, what's the use of deleting it now?" he asked as he looked at me as if that's the most dumb idea he have heard.

Inis ko siyang tinignan. "Kanina kasi sabi kong I delete mo eh ayaw mong makinig."

"What are you even so afraid of? Do you have a suitor then? Are you protecting someone else's feelings?"

"What?" I exclaimed. "Of course not! Ano nalang iisipin ng mga tao lalo na classmates natin?"

He looked at me innocently. "I don't know, friends?"

Napahinto ako sa paglalakad at hindi makapaniwalang tinignan siya. "Gago, kailan pa tayo naging magkaibigan?"

"Ngayon?" he answered in a questioning tone.

"Siraulo." tinalikuran ko siya saka naunang naglakad papalabas sa exit ng mall.

He was calling my name but I didn't even bothered to listen.

When I reached the exit, Inilabas ko 'yong cellphone ko. Magpapakuha nalang ako kay kuya.

I don't mind waiting for around 15-20 minutes basta huwag lang talaga akong umangkas sa tarantadong 'yon. Kanina pa siya sa Starbucks ha. Anong nakain non.

Sinusungitan niya 'ko noong first day of school tas ngayon gaganito-ganito siya, ulol sinong inu-uto niya.

The waiting shed was on the other side of the street.

Papatawid na ako sa pedestrian lane while typing a message for my brother when I heard a loud honk.

I was left dumbfounded when I saw the huge truck coming it's way to me blowing it's horn.

I know that I'm supposed to run or to step back, but I felt my legs shaking.

My body stopped functioning, I can even hear my heartbeat beating so loud and fast.
