New day and new groups, but still you literally asked me right away if we're still in the same group after one of our subject teacher announcement. There's a shuffle or new groups that we will form for another debate, and I replied "It's up to you!"
I wait for your replies, looking at the three dots... jumping.
"Alright! Besides, wala din naman ako magiging ka-group kung ako pipili."
Muntik ko na makalimutan, transferee ka nga pala at wala masyadong kakilala sa mga kaklase naten. And I'm just overwhelmed knowing that you approached me, knowing na madalas kita nakakausap kaysa sa iba nating mga kaklase, knowing na ako lagi ang chinachat mo regarding to our subject.
"Sakalin ko nalang siguro sarili ko pag nagkataon." Pagbibiro niya na tinawanan ko naman, then I replied. "Pwede rin naman, charot!"
Naitikom ko ang bibig ko at hindi mapigilang kiligin pagkatapos kong makita na nagreact siya sa message ko.
Did I just make you laugh?
It just feels new, knowing that I'm making a progress little by little.
After a week, I think about something too childish. I try to ask you about one of our individual activity and it takes a lot of courage to send it to you just because I put the word "Beh"
At first, I'm actually scared! What if malaman mong gusto kita? What if mahalata mo? What if ma turn-off ka, mailang?
There's so many possibilities, but on the second thought, marami na rin ako natawag na ganun sa group chat. So baka maisip mo rin na it's just a friendly call, walang malisya.
"Beh! Any idea about this activity? I can't figure it out, that's why I decided to ask you." Nagsend ako ng picture kaso ang sabi niya hindi niya daw alam kasi hindi niya gaano pinagtutuunan ng pansin ang mga minor subject.
But I actually know the answers, it's just an excuse!
The days passed, and I ask you again tungkol sa kung sino gusto niyang nakapartner sa group namin.
I tried to divide them by 2 para lahat mabibigyan ng gagawin at para mabilis matapos ang gawain ng grupo. Besides, pinapapili ko naman sila who they want to be with for being comfortable.
"Hayie!" I immediately send my message. "I just want to ask if kanino ka comfortable sa group natin, para maipartner kita? Natanong ko na den yung iba, para sana mapabilis tayo sa paggawa ng report if comfortable kayo sa partner niyo."
Curses! Ako yung leader, yung nagtanong, pero ako din yung kinabahan, hoping that he'll choose me to be his partner.
"I'm okay with anyone, hindi ko sila kilala eh hahaha!"
How hard it is? Hindi ko alam kung tatawa ba ako o malulungkot. All this time, you don't know someone from our group. Kung hindi pa kita naging ka group, malamang ay ikaw lang din gagawa mag-isa sa magiging ka group mo.
"Walang kahit sino sa gc!" I tried to tell a joke and you get it.
"Basta tao Marem, yung may bibig sana tapos humihinga."
You just made my day, man!
"Okay ka lang sakin neh? Tao naman ako saka may bibig, tapos humihinga." Pag sakay ko sa biro niya, kahit mamatay-matay na ako sa kilig at kakatawa.
After a few seconds, his messages popped up in my phone screen. "Nameet mo naman yung requirements, kaya pwede na!"
Kusa akong napatakip sa bibig ko at mahinang tumawa. "Waw hahaha!"
"Biro lang!" Bawi niya. "Oo naman!"
I wonder, did I also meet your requirements or standard rather to be your girlfriend?
