I open the car's door and went outside. Tiningnan ko ang kabuuan ng school. Ipinikit ko ang mata bago ngumiti at damhin ang hangin.
It's been a long time.
Nakakamiss ang polusyon.
Nakakamiss ang ingay ng mga sasakyan at amoy ng mga pagkain sa labas ng paaralan.
But, what I miss the most was... going to school with Nami and Kaila.
I sighed. It feels different. I missed a lot of things with them.
Hindi na sila ang kasama ko at kailangan kong makipagsalamuha sa iba. Di bale, mabuti nadin iyon dahil isang taon akong nasa bahay at walang nakakasamang iba.
I walk inside the school alone. I still manage to smile even though i was really sad. Andami naming memories ditong tatlo. Bawat sulok ng paaralan ay naalala ko lahat ng kalokohan, katangahan, kasiyahan kaandian namin dati.
Deja vu.
I'm in front of the door of my classroom. Dito din ang classroom ko dati. Sumilip ako para tingnan ang mga kaklase ko. They all look so close to each other. They had a circle of friends already.
I sighed. Natigil ang mata ko sa tatlong upuan sa likuran. That's our seats before. I'm sitting in the center while Nami and Kaila is sitting beside me. Huminga ako ng malalim at umiling.
Wag ka ngang masyadong emosyonal Lyle! Unang araw palang naiiyak kana! Madaldal ka naman for sure marami kang magiging kaibigan! Wag kana madrama!
Huminga ko ng malalim at nilaksan ang loob ko. Pumasok nako at naghanap ng bakanteng upuan. Mayroong ibang tiningnan ako at ang iba naman ay walang pakielam. Naupo nako a kabilang dulo at walang mga tao don at ako lang magisa. Nagiisa nalang din ang bakante sa tabi ko.
But until we were dismissed by our last prof no one sit beside me.
I'm busy putting my things inside my bag when someone approaches me. I look at her with wide eyes.
She smiled. "Hi ate! Dati kitang senior kaya nagulat ako na kaklase kita. I was about to approach you earlier and sit with you but I'm too shy."
Oh! I don't know what to say. She's so nice.
I nod and give her a smile. "Yeah. Are you sure you want to sit here?" i asked.
She nods immediately. I smiled. "Then, we're seatmates now."
Inilahad ko ang palad ko. " I'm Laliana Eile Pascua. Lyle nalang."
She took my hand. "I'm Anika Romero. Anika nalang din po."
I smiled and we talk a little before I excuse myself and leave.
