Walang gana akong bumangon sa bed ko. It's been a week already after our quick vacation in my province. Ito ako ngayon namumulubi. Sa pagmamahal niya. Kidding aside we had a misunderstanding kahapon ni Calissa. Naabutan niya kasing humalik sa pisngi ko si Ehla. It wasn't my fault na ganon ang paraan ng pag thank you ni Ehla sa akin. Wala rin naman kaming label ni Miss kaya I don't want to assume.
Napabuntong hininga na lang ako habang nagtotoothbrush. I still need to find a job. Bibisitahin ko muna ang cafe ni ate baka pwede akong mag apply doon.
I heard my phone ring kaya kinapa ko ito sa suot kong trousers. I answered the call without looking who's the caller.
"Punta ka na dito sa school." Salubong agad ni Ehla.
"Why?" I asked boringly.
"Your crush kinukuha na ng iba."
"What?"
"You should see it yourself."
Dali-dali akong bumaba dala ang mga gamit ko. Buti na lang hindi binawi yung motor ko kaya agad akong sumampa dito.
Wala pang sampung minuto ay nakarating na ako sa University. I parked my motorcycle sa malapit sa tennis court at agad ko namang nahagilap si Ehla.
"What do you mean about my crush?" I asked hastily when I was in front of her. She pointed someone and from the back of it I know who it is.
"Nah, ah." The only thing I've said before walking away. Yung engineering pala ang tinutukoy niya.
Napaaga tuloy ang pagpunta ko dito. It's only 8 oclock at 9:30 pa ang klase ko.
I'm walking right now papunta sa room namin sa New Building. Pagkaapak ko sa 3rd floor ay may narinig akong nag-uusap sa isang room wala pang masiyadong tao kaya rinig ko ito. I want to ignore it but the voice is familiar.
"Honey I'm very sorry." I heard the man said while holding her hand. What's happening?
"It's okay Hon. I do understand your situation right now." She caressed his back as they hug each other. Hon? Are they a couple?
"Thank you." The guy holds her face and gently leaned and kissed her cheeks.
I ignored the emotions knocking in the doorstep of my door. I ran away from that place. She's taken already. I am too late or maybe she is just not meant for me.
"You okay?" Jini asked while her hand is on my shoulder. I gave her a smile and silence envelope us.
"Okay class dismiss. Class mayor please come with me in the DMS office so that I can give you the materials needed for our next meeting." Miss Olinares said and nauna ng maglakad. I sighed heavily before moving. I hope she's not there.
Nang makapasok ako ang unang mukhang bumungad sa akin ay ang babaeng sana ay hindi na nagpakita ng motibo para hindi ako aasa.
"Mayor, here is the material. Please check it first." I nodded as I got the envelope. Tinignan ko ito at mukhang okay naman.
"Thank you ma'am. I'll go now." Matamlay kong saad. With a confused face ma'am nodded. Buti hindi na nagtanong.
Walang lingon-lingon ay umalis ako. Wala na akong klase kaya dumiretso na ako sa motor ko buti dala ko ang bag ko. I need to be alone but also I need to go to the cafe.
Pinaandar ko na ito at ilang minuto lang ay nakarating na ako. I smelled the familiar scent of coffee, tea and pastry. I missed this place.
The guard greeted me, and I also greeted him back. Dumiretso na ako sa office ni Ate. When I opened the door, she was shocked to see me.
