"Are you really a crazy papansin boy?"

I couldn't stop myself anymore. I immediately ended the meeting when this man in front of me with a wide smile on his lips interrupted us. When I'm in the middle of my meeting I don't want anyone to disturb us! Nawawala ako sa focus sa ganoon.

He smirked, multo kung ngumiti. "Nagvolunteer na nga ako, ayaw mo pa? I heard it right. I'm sure of it. You want the students of DU to volunteer themselves to participate in your project. Am I right, Miss Pres?"

I sighed. "Yes, but seriously? Ikaw magvo-volunteer? I know you only did that to tease me! To make me piss and to ruin my day!"

"Judgemental?" Nang aasar niya pang tanong, "I really want to help you, Nikkisha. Don't make it a joke. Hindi naman ako nagbibiro sa pagvolunteer."

His voice is low, I could feel the sincerity of his voice. You couldn't blame me I doubt him because he always wants to tease me. Parang hindi mabubuhay ng isang araw na hindi man lang ako aasarin.

I fixed my eyeglasses because I think this man is giving me a stressful life in DU. Hindi ko siya gustong maka-close, kung papipiliin ako sa kanila ni Gio na gusto kong kaibigan. I'd rather choose Khelgio than him!

I scanned his face.

If he's telling the truth that he wholeheartedly volunteered himself to be part of our project. But how? A son of the owner of this school? Well, it wasn't written on the rules and regulations that Demercibal's are not allowed to participate in the project, events, or what of the school. Kahit anak pa sila ng may-ari.

"Do you want to stare at me all day?" He suddenly asked. "I could hand you a copy of my picture. Gusto mo ipa-frame ko pa at ilagay sa side table mo para hindi mo'ko tinititigan?"

I clenched my fists, bit my lip, and I just wanna kick him out of my sight.

"Ang kapal mo, alam mo ba 'yon?" Inis kong sagot.

"Kunwari ka lang na nagma-masungit sa'kin pero ang totoo gusto mo lang ako."

Okay, Nikki. Stop yourself. Anak 'yan ng may-ari ng school. Kahit President ka hindi puwedeng patulan ang isang Demercibal.

"Ano, Nikkisha? Am I that good to catch someone's feelings?" He laughed at that.

"Ang kapal din talaga ng mukha mo no?" Hindi na ako nakapagpigil, "I don't like you, Natanius. Kahit ikaw na lang ang matira na lalaki dito sa mundo, hinding-hindi kita papatulan!"

His jaw was clenched, his emotions have changed. Kung kanina ay mukhang mapanukso at handa akong inisin maghapon. Ngayon naman ay parang pinagsuklaban ng langit at lupa.

He raised his eyebrow, after a while he chuckled.

"From now on stop teasing me! If you volunteer yourself then do your work without showing in my sight." I said in a serious manner.

I get my things the hard way. I am pissed off. He is even full of himself, huh? Iniisip niya ba na may gusto ako sa kaniya? Na tinititigan ko siya? I'm just scanning his face! I scanned his face to determine if he was saying the truth.

I was about to turn my back to him when he talked.

"How?"

Nilingon ko siya. "What kind of question is that? You didn't know how to get out of my sight and you never bothered me-"

"Yes, Nikkisha." Malumanay na ngayon ang kaniyang boses, "I don't know how to do that."

"At bakit hindi?!" Tumaas ang boses ko. "Titigilan mo lang naman ang pagsulpot sa paningin-"
