Rewrite our Antiarrhythmic Scenery

Chapter 23- Paraluman

Months and months passed by. Before the school year start, we go to the beach together with Zian's family,umuwi rin si dada sandali lamang 'yon dahil sa graduation ay uuwi rin siya. 

"Potangina." Sabi sa Dren, kaya tinaasan ko siya ng kilay at pinag krus ang braso. 

"Saan ka ba nakakakuha ng idea? tangina, nakakainggit." Manghang mangha na naman siya sa gawa ko. Pinabasa ko kasi sakaniya ang peta namin sa creative writing. Gagawa ka lang naman ng maikling storya.

"Patingin nga ng iyo." Sabi ko sakaniya at binigay sa 'kin ang clear folder niya.

My eyes widen, and act with shock "Scorching of the sea." Pagbasa ko title pa lamang, kaya mas lalo ko siyang tinignan. They say, if I weren't in a relationship. We would look like Dren and I in a relationship. Mostly ay siya ang nakakasama ko tuwing my by pair. So people probably issume. 

"Bakit ganito naman ang title mo?" pabaling baling ako ng tingin sa papel niya at sa kaniya. Mukang hindi naman siya gulat sa ekspresyon ko. 

He never fail to amuse him with his title nung last sem pinagawan rin kami ang title naman ng kaniya, glazed fire.

"Do you want to work with me?" I teased him, I felt like he will be a good writer or a director. 

"Gawa ka muna ng broadcasting station, tsaka ako mag a-apply sayo." He gave me a chuckled, still his eyes were on my paper. 

"Halimaw ang gawa mo." He said with a serious tone.

Few of our classmates kept on teasing us, we didn't care. I'm already in a relationship, I didn't even bother to go along with them. Because it felt like its cheating. 

"Astig naman ng title mo paraluman " I looked him, as my brows furrowed. Lagi nalang nang aasar. ganda-ganda kaya ng title ko. 

"Ang babaw, pero ang deep. Lalo na pag binasa mo." He said and closed the folder. 

"Yup. Gano'n naman kasi talaga ang purpose. You don't really need to judge the book my its title. kahio ang title ang agagaw sa atensyon. Surprise." I explained, as he slowly nod his head.

"Halimaw ka nga talaga. Hindi ko alam kung love story ba 'to o tragic. Wala bang book 2?" He giggle. It was a girl who ought to love, but then find herself on the top of tha mountain. Before she even realized that she is already on the top of the mountain. There's this person who sacrifice his life for her to reach the peak. Wala naman akong inilagay kung kamusta na ang taong 'yon kaya ganoon ang reaction ni Dren. 

"Ashey!" Sigaw ni Christian nang mapagtanto niya na kasama ko si Dren. Bahagaya pa siyang napa atras. 

"Hindi ko naman alam na bebe time kayo." He chuckled, pero sumimangot lang ako. 

"I have a boyfriend." I rolled my eyes and put my arms on my chest. 

"Nakapag apply ka na ba sa mga school univs?" He asked, as I tilted my head. I was way to excited to take ustet, but it wasn't my fault we become busier. Hindi rin naman nababanggit ng mga squad ko kung nakapag take na ba sila ng exam or review man lang. Nagkaroon ng ustet batch 1 nung august dahil busy ako sa kinahaharap...

We were all busy... 

"gago, next month na 'yon. Dream school mo 'yon diba?" Christian told me, he was more worried than I am. 

Pinasa na namin ang mga peta namin sa creating writings. Ang huling hirit namin for the first sem. May last sem pa kami, mabilis lang nama 'yon. Kaya mag fo-focus muna ako sa pag rereview ng ustet. Hindi pwedng hindi ako papasa. Ito ang dream school ko ever since I was little. 

I didn't met my friends when the class were done. I was thinking about that ustet. Naka batch 2  na ba? Bakit hindi ko alam? bakit wala na akong alam sa ustet? Was it because my passion eat me?
