"Be my boyfriend, Zac."
I didn't know what have just came in my mind to say that thing. Hindi ko na mababawi. Nasabi ko na. This is insane, Psalm Celestine! You are really insane!
He didn't say anything. So does it mean that silence means yes, right?
Maaga kaming umuwi kinabukasan. Ni hindi ko alam kung paano ako nakatulog nang gabing iyon. Maaga ding umalis si Zac. Akala ko ay sya ang maghahatid sa amin but when I woke up, tanging si Ate Blea lang ang bumungad sa akin.
"Damn! Hindi na talaga ako iinom, I swear!"
I rolled my eyes at Ate Blea. She keeps on ranting about how hurt her head was.
"Ilang beses mo nang sinabi yan, Ate."
Sinamaan nya ako ng tingin. I bited my lips to prevent myself from laughing. Baka mabatukan nya ako.
"Sasabay ka ba sa amin, Psalm?"
I shooked my head with Eli, Jia and Trina. "Kuya will fetch me here daw 'e."
"We gotto go na, Psalm. Bye!"
I waved my hands at them. I pouted my lips as I wait until my Kuya arrives. When I saw our car, naglakad na ako papalapit dito.
"Blea texted me. Pupunta tayong University nila." he said.
I just nodded. Thinking about their University, I felt nervous. What if I saw him there? Sana lang ay hindi.
I saw a lot of students in the waiting area outside the University. I roamed around just to see if there's any trace of him. Buti nalang ay wala.
"I will just go somewhere. Ikaw na muna ang maghintay sa Ate mo."
"What? You will leave me here?" gulat na tanong ko.
"What's wrong with that? Besides, gustong gusto mong magpunta dito before, right?"
I didn't say anything. Padabog akong bumaba. How could he just left me here alone? Besides, noon yun! People's changed.
Nakatayo lang ako habang inililibot ang paningin. Just in case, iluwal ng gate ang kapatid ko.
I typed a message for her.
Ate Blea:
Where are u? I'm here outside your University. Labasin mo ako Ate. I'm alone. Kuya Cael left me here alone.
Ate Blea didn't even reply. Nasaan na kaya iyon?
"Naligaw ka ata," natigilan ako nang marinig ang boses nya. Really? Sya na naman?
"I'm waiting for my Ate."
"I guess you're the younger sister of Clein?" he asked.
"Y-yes. How did you know?"
"You and her really looks like a lot."
Sa tuwing pumupunta ako ng University nila, they are all saying the same thing. Na kamukhang kamukha ko daw ang Ate ko. Ate Blea looks like a model because of her curves and height. While me, hanggang balikat nya lang ako. Hindi naman ako katulad nya na may kurba ang katawan.
"Ako na ang tatawag kay Clein. Just wait here. Hindi kasi pwede pumasok ang taga ibang school." aniya.
I nodded and smile at him.
Ilang sandali pa ay hindi pa din dumadating si Kuya Cael, kahit si Ate Blea ay hindi pa din lumalabas.
"Looks who's here," a familiar voice filled my ears. Agad nagtangis ang bagang ko.
"Akalain mo nga naman. Dito pa talaga tayo magkikita." Onyx said. "And oh, I thought you already in college. I don't really think that you're just in high school. You are really hot!"
