"You're smoking because?" He was about to leave pero hindi niya alam kung ano bang gusto nitong lalakeng nasa harap niya at ang mga titig nito ay tumatagos sa pagkatao niya.
Nanliliit siya sa harapan ni East, dahil hanggang dibdib lang siya nito ay kung titignan nya naman 'to ay kailangan niyang tumingala. He just shoved his sideway and pass through.
But East grabbed his left arm, that made him trippled.
"Mr. Virquez what do you think you're doing ha?" muntikan ng matumba si Kygh sa ginawa ng estudyante niya.
"Just sniffing you off, you smoke menthol and strawberry. Very usual." And his student left him, he really exude different aura kaya naisip ni Kygh na he should stay away from him o hindi niya alam paano.
He will see him everyday, una dahil estudyante niya 'to, pangalawa East looks cunning. Malamang ay hindi siya nito tatantanan for unknown reason.
Kygh went to their teacher's cafeteria and got himself the usual lunch. Habang nakain ito ay may umupo sa harapan niya, alam niya na agad sino 'to dahil iisa lang naman na professor sa university na 'to ang may pink na buhok. Si Attina.
"So its your typical lunch again Kygh. 'Di kaba naboboring sa kinakain mo ha.?
"Hindi naman, lagi ko naman 'tong kinakain at ikaw its the bread and banana again? Napailing nalang si Kygh sa pagkain na meron ang kaibigan niya, sadya lang talagang on diet itong si Attina kaya ang mga kinakain niya balanced lahat.
"Well, atleast I could get a bj of the day by my saging." Attina laughed while Kygh choked on his food. Balahura talaga ang bibig ng kaibigan niya yet he find it amusing to be with her.
"Soooo, maybe you can now talk about that "guy"." Attina really know how to stir things up. He got cornered again and he might spill what he shouldn't right now.
"Wala namang special sakanya, he's just the guy." He was hoping that Attina would not ask any questions pero alam niya sa sarili niya his friend wont shut up until she got the information she needs and want.
"And you expect me to believe that, Kygh pwede ba ayusin mo naman. Fill me in."
Hindi maisip ni Kygh kung paano niya sisimulan magkwento tungkol kay Leo. Dahil wala naman talaga dapat i-kwento. Or maybe he can just make stories para tumigil na si Attina.
He's about to talk when his phone rang.
It's Leo. He got up at lumayo ng kaunti sa lamesa nila ni Attina."Hello, we just talked. Bakit ka tumawag ulit?"
Does he sound so proud and boastful kasi he thinks that Leo can't get enough of him kaya tumawag na naman 'to sakanya."Just want to ask if you had your lunch na, and if you have your meds with you?" Dont take it in the wrong way masaya sya na Leo really do care of him but sometimes he thinks that Leo's acting like his psychiatrist not more like a lover to him.
"Nakain pa lang, yes I have my meds with me. Are you missing me that much kaya tawag ka nang tawag, Leo?." Shoot he thinks, talaga ngang mayabang siya para itanong 'to.
"I do, I really do Kygh. " Leo sounds so desperate and eager o iniisip lang 'to ni Kygh.
"Then miss me more, since ayaw mo na ihatid kita sa airport. " Okay he sounds childish but he really wants to send him off to look like a legit couple but they're not.
"Don't be like that Kygh, we'll meet on Sunday right? We have the whole day to spend and go out-." He ended the call, maybe yes he's childish pero He can't just get enough of Leo. Gusto niya rin naman na sinusuyo siya nito because he feels more needed and worth pursuing for.
He went back to his food and again his friend, Attina was looking at him with suspicion.
"Okay since you wont talk, hulaan ko na lang Kygh. He's your so-called-secret-boyfriend-na hindi-pwede-malaman-ng-kahit-sino-kasi-he's bound-to-get-married-to-someone-his-level."
Attina's really smart yan na lang naisip ni Kygh, he can't keep a secret from her kasi kaya siyang basahin nito mula ulo hanggang paa.
"Oo na, tama kana." He stood up and get his things tid up. Pero bago siya makaalis Attina left some few words.
"Are you sure you love him earnestly?" It was more like a question to Kygh nothing more. Ayaw niya mag-overthink kaya instead of answering her friend umalis na ito ng cafeteria.
It was a tiring day for Kygh, dahil bago siya matapos sa shift niya ay nagkaroon ng emergency meeting with their College Dean.
He got back to his apartment later than usual and he's really hungry but there's nothing inside the fridge.
Dahil si Leo lang naman ang may tyaga na punuuin ang laman ng ref niya because he has no energy to do so.
He decide to get some grocery from the supermarket nearby his apartment. He's picking up the usual stuff inside his ref and out of nowhere he got himself in the shelves of condoms and lube.
He was thinking if he should get a pair of his favorite condom and lube for Sunday. Or maybe Leo already got one. He just shake off his head and grab one but out of sudden a single hand got him
"Pick the eurion one, it'll suit you." Familiar, it smells and sounds familiar. East.
Kygh was more irritated than shock. He didn't expect to see his student around seeing him in this section. He acted deaf and continue pushing his cart.
"Do I make you feel uneasy, Prof?" Should Kygh be honest or acted upon instinct to not talk at all and pretend he didn't hear him but for sure East wont stop.
"Not at all, Mr. Virquez" He really didn't bother at all the fact that his student saw him at the condom section. Its just that he doesn't have the energy to mind whatever East has on his mind.
Warm, tense and big hand wrapped around his neck that made him shivered. Iniharap ni East and mukha niya sakanya. He was left dumdfounded and now shocked.
"I said call me East."
