Chapter 40

"Luh may jowa kana?!" Riri's chewing a fruit "Ka culture shockening naman!"

I smiled a little kasi ang lakas ng boses niya kaya napatingin sakin ang ibang tao dito. Napakagat ang labi ko.

Nilingon ako ni Riri at ngumiti siya sakin "Calvin has a really good taste. You're like super bagay! Para kayong yung mga couples sa youtube ganoin"

"Really?" Calvin smiled. Bilis din neto mag pa uto 'no?

Riri is super kind. Napansin kong out of them, she has the most energy. Tapos si Maggie naman yung isa sa nicest at super innocent. I rarely see Riri as I do to Maggie but I kind of figured it out. Besides, sometimes Calvin talks about them. I learned na they are genuine friends.

May tinawag si Riri na isang lalaki. The guy looks older than me or Calvin.. hindi naman sobrang tanda tignan pero mukang nasa 20s na siya pero hindi siya tinatawag na Kuya ni Riri or ano man.

"Derek, this is Charlotte.. my girlfriend" ngumiti si Calvin upon saying that. Parang kinikilig amp.

Nanlaki mata ni Derek at ngumiti saakin nang malaki at nag offer ng kamay "Finally!"

Tinanggap ko kamay niya at ngumiti nang bahagya.

"Akala ko pre never kana magkaka girlfriend.. ikaw pa naunang nag commit sating lahat oh" Nakakaloko ang ngiti ni Derek "Mag classmate kayo?"

"I'm a year ahead of her" he answered and fixed my hair kasi nililipad. I like our height difference and how easily he could access my hair.

"Nga pala mas matanda ka kay Kuya Andrew" sabi ni Riri "Tapos bff and classmates si Kuya Andrew at Ate Charlotte 'no?"

Sasagutin ko sana siya nang may dumating na isang babae. She looks bad mood.. nakakunot ang noo niya at nakasimangot. Agad na nagbago ang expression niya nung nakita niya si Riri then she hugged her.

"I miss you Ate Giselle!" Sabi ni Riri

Oh so this is Giselle? She's really pretty din. I'm slightly taller than her at yung awra nya ay sumisigaw ng pagka sosyal. Seriously... balat mayaman siya. Super kinis din parang walang pores. Ang ganda ng muka niya.. her face shape complements her features. Tapos muka pang wala syang make up.. clean look ang peg nya. Her hair is fixed at naka low bun. She looks super clean and hygienic. Tapos ang bango n'ya.

"Giselle this is my girlfriend, Charlotte" pagpapakilala sakin ni Calvin. "Love this is Giselle, our friend. I bet this the the first time you've met?"

"Really? Your girlfriend? That's surprising" nilingon ako ni Giselle at nginitian niya ako "You got a good taste bro... you're really pretty Charlotte"

Hindi ko naman alam kung paano magr-react dahil minsan lang ako sabihan ng maganda lalo ng mas maganda sakin. Are they telling the truth though? Or are they just nice?

They were basically interrogating me but I'm not uncomfortable. They are acting very nice towards me.. they asked me a lot of questions. I learned that Giselle is 4th year at Green Valleys and she was also a volleyball player but quit.

"You should definitely try out" sabi niya "GV Women's Volleyball is literally the best team. They are so so nice and accommodating"

I shrugged "I think I'll pass. I have a lot on my plate" I poured a water on my glass "How about you? Why'd you quit?"

"Graduating" she answered "Opposite kayo ni Cal 'no? You're obviously introvert. Cal's very friendly grabe"

Totoo.. kahit saan kami pumunta ay may nababati siya. I bet he really made a lot of friends for comfort... kaya nga nagtataka ako din talaga kung bakit ako pag nagustuhan niya sa dami ng choices. From the convo earlier nung mga babae, I bet sobrang daming nagkakagusto sa kaniya. And he chose to settle with me. Good luck.
