Prologue
"I like you,"
Ehhh
"What did you say?" I unbelievably asked him again. I think I must've misheard him, isn't?
"I said I like you Rowena," he says with matching roll eyes pa. Agh, this creature na pinaglihi ata ni Tita sa sama ng loob. He's making me mad.
"Really? Nagcoconfess ka nyan?" Tanong ko. He doesn't even seem interested, I told myself and pouted. He didn't even look into my eyes while saying those words and it doesn't seemed sincere to me. Tumayo nalang ako. I got pissed.
'Bahala ka d'yan '
I left him seating in the bench and walked away from him. Isn't when you say something you should prove it with your actions? Nilingon ko s'ya, nakatingin lang s'ya sa'kin habang naglalakad ako. This time, I was the one who rolled my eyes.
He can't be the only who can do that. Dumeretso nalang ako sa room namin. He didn't showed up until lunch came. Someone from juniors suddenly came, the student council would like to hold a meeting. I am guessing it is because the school year was about to end and our official positions as the newly elected officers and the turn over will be few moments before the graduation the ahead batch takes place.
'No Vacation. Yup, Rowena you chose this. To serve your school mates.'
I went to the council's conference room that's just behind our building. To my surprise no one was there aside from someone.
"Ano to?" I asked him and crossed my arms. There were written letters na nakahilera sa tables. Some were written on bond papers, some were on pads and even tissues. Just random things where you can write.
"Letters to myself, from the day I first met you down to the realizations that I like you," he explained to me which sounded unfamiliar. My eyebrows arched at him, didn't know this side of Fabio existed. Cringe.
But when I read the letters I started to stopped cringing. They weren't really that cringe... They were actually... Amusing. Considering his good penmanship, and his kinda rude attitude. I laughed a little and looked at him.
"This is really you?" I asked him.
"Embarrassing... But I wouldn't be ashamed at all if it means proving that I actually like you Rowena," he says and walks towards my direction.
"Sus, sino ba naman kasing maniniwala? Aamin ka you're not even looking at me, then you said it like it's nothing-"
I stopped talking when he placed his index finger on my lips to shut me up. It caught me off guard as well considering how close are face from one another. The distance as so small that it was hard to breath.
"Maybe ask some advice from Kuya Alex, he's such a sweet guy and you are not," I slapped his hand a little and sarcastically told him that thing. Well I just wanted to piss him off like the way he did to me earlier.
"I know my own move, I don't need anyone's advice and please Rowena don't ruin my confession by mentioning him," he says seriously that made me stop. Well still a mission success.
"Well then, tell me properly why, and how you like me," utos ko sakanya.
"You really changes mood that fast," naiiling na saad n'ya sa'kin at lumayo.
