"Caley!" Napatingin ako sa pinanggalingan ng matinis na boses na iyon at nakitang si Ken lang pala.
Nilapag muna nito ang bag niya sa assigned seat saka umupo sa harapan ng inuupuan ko. She has a smile that everyone captivates.
"Alam mo ba? Dad bought a limited edition Hermes bag! It's so beautiful!" she chirp. May kasama pang pagpalakpak na nakapagpangiti sa akin.
I sighed, sinarado ko na ang notebook na binabasa ko dahil alam kong hindi na naman ako makakapag-focus dahil sa kaingayan nito.
"And gosh!" her iconic rolling eyes made me chuckle. She even sway her imaginary bangs like it's irritating the hell out of her. "Liam and Dale was so mabagal kaya I asked kuya driver na lang na mauna."
I laughed when I saw her annoyed face. She was literally the princess. Can't wait to see those boys later. I'm sure galit na galit na naman ang mga iyon.
"Let's grab food," hinawakan niya ako sa braso at wala na akong nagawa kung hindi ang sumama.
"Ken," unknown guy, basically one of school heartthrob made on our way to cafeteria. She titled her head only to see my furrowed brows. She was inquiring for answer but I can't just point who the hell is he.
"What mister? Kilala ba kita?" Nakataas kilay na tanong nito sa lalaking nasa likod ko.
The boy smirked and licked his lower lip. "No, but I know you."
Ken is boredly looking at her fingernails as she heard that. Hindi nakaligtas sa mata ng lahat ang nang-aasar niyang pagngisi."Really? Then you know that nobody should call me on my nickname unless we're close enough."
Rinig sa buong hall ang bulungan at tawanan ng ilang estudyante. Mapababae o lalaki ay napapatingin.
My god! We are attracting too much attention and sorry for this guy if he will leave the school premises having scratches.
"But I want to be close to you,"matapang na saad nito.
Lahat naman. She's a dela Cuesta, her surname itself is a big deal.
Busy pa rin si Ken sa pagtitig at pag-check ng kuko niya bago niya pagbigyan pansin ang lalaki sa harapan. "Is it because wala sila Liam at Dale rito?"
"What do you mean?" ramdam ko ang pagkakapahiya sa boses nung nasa kanan, ngunit hindi nito hinayaan makita dahil binalot niya pa rin ang labi ng ngisi.
Kennedy walked towards him and tapped his shoulders. "You know what, you're kinda cute but I don't want another victim of my cousins. Just leave me and Cale alone."
"What's the big deal about Cale? Hindi naman siya dela Cuesta so basically your protection is not visible on her." His piercing eyes met mine and I can feel his anger towards the idea.
"She's my bestfriend," malamig at may kadiinan na pahayag ng bagong dating.
Napatingin ako sa lalaking bagong dating, sporting his suit and pants is a demi-god! God! No? Lalaki ang ulo nito kapag narinig ang kung anong nasa isip ko!
He walks towards the guy earlier, bago siya bumaling ng tingin sa pinsan niya, huli sa akin. Matalim na mata ang sumalubong sa akin kaya napataas ako ng kilay sa nakita.
What? Kasalanan ko na naman ba? Oh geez! Kasalanan ko bang maganda ako kaya lapitin ng mga gago?
Nakapamulsa siya nang huminto sa harapan ng lalaking ngayon ay nabahag ang buntot. I am in burst of my laugh kung hindi lang ako binigyan ng masamang tingin ni Ilog.
Nahihiyang nagbaba ng tingin ang lalaki at napahawak sa batok. "S-sige, Cale, Kennedy, una na ako." Pinilit niyang humarap kay Ilog na nasa akin na ang mga mata. "Pasensya na, Pare."
