KABANATA XV
Third Person's POV
Habang na sa library ay 'di maiwasan ni Megumi na pagtaasan ng kilay si Cruz. "Really? Ang gulo mo mag-explain." Napanganga si Cruz.
"Hindi ba't ako dapat ang nauubos na ang pasensya kasi 'di mo pa rin makuha?"
"E sa 'di ka magaling magturo kasalanan ko ba 'yon?"
Sani pursed his lips — pinipigilan ang sarili na matawa.
"Sabi ko naman sa 'yo aralin mo na lang mag-isa 'kung 'di mo makuha pero pinagpipilitan mo pang ituro ko e hindi mo naman makuha."
"Ugh. Na saan ba kasi sina Jasmine May at Joshiel?"
"The professors asked for them. Kai went with them as well. Kaya mag-aral ka diyan, naghahanap ka na naman ng palusot e." Megumi rolled her eyes.
"How about Richo?"
"I don't know. He excused himself earlier."
"But hey, what do you think will happen after high school?" Megumi suddenly asked. Kumunot ang nuo ng dalawa.
"Ano 'yan? Naghahanap ka na naman ba ng ibang gagawin para 'di makapag-review?" Sani chimed in.
"I was just asking." She whisper shout.
"Ikaw ba? What do you want to become?" Cruz asked while turning the page of the book he was reading.
"Ako? Marketing. Hmm... I know maarte ako and whatever you say, pero I don't want to model— that's a hard job. I can take fashion but it's not just for me, though I like dressing up yeah. Marketing would be for me, helping businesses with their advertisement. I would love to do that."
"That's cool. Akala ko related sa fashion e."
"Ikaw Sani?"
"CPA-Lawyer." Napanganga sina Cruz at Megumi. Nagkatinginan pa silang dalawa bago muling lumingon kay Sani.
"Seryoso ba?"
"Yep. Alam ko mahirap but I just have to give it my all."
"Woah... I mean, oo, ano... kaya mo siguro... pero uhm... magsi-CPA ka muna..."
"So?"
"'Di ka kaya mahirapan muna bago maging lawyer?"
Umiling si Sani. "No. It's what I want. I know it's hard to be a BSA student but you know you can excel in something that you are really interested in."
"Wow." All Megumi and Cruz can say.
Napatikhim si Cruz. "Sino ba naman ako para sundan ang pagiging CPA-Lawyer mo."
"Bakit? Ano ba iyo?"
"Engineering. Gusto ko maging engineer." Napanganga si Megumi.
"So sino kayo para sundan ako sa mga gusto niyo maging? Tini-trippings niyo ba ako?"
"Nope." Sabay na sagot ng dalawa.
"Mag-doctor na lang kaya ako?" Bulong ni Megumi sa sarili na narinig naman ng dalawa. Napailing na lang sila sa kaibigan. Aasarin sana nila ito 'nang makarating na si Richo.
"Let's go. Aline is already waiting for us outside. Doon ko na pinadiretso sina Joshiel." Mabilis na nagligpit ang tatlo at sumunod kay Richo.
"Hey, what do you want to become, Richo?" Asked Megumi.
"Ako? Archi."
"Yeah, yeah... I can see that."
"Why did you ask?"
