Chapter 9

Anastasia's POV
       
          I awkwardly smiled at them at dinala ako ni Xaven sa may tent kung saan nandun yung first aids agad niya akong pinaupo habang siya ay hinahanap yung aid.

He finds a stool at doon pinatong yung mga paa ko then he gently take off my shoes and socks. He scanned my feet if there we're bruises but luckily wala. I heard him sigh.

"Medjo masakit sa may ankle na banda," nahihiyang tugon ko.

He started to massage my ankle very carefully at mukhang seryoso siya sa kanyang ginagawa his brows we're even frowned.

After massaging my ankle he found a small scratch on the side of my ankle agad siyang nataranta at agad na may kinuha sa bulsa.

A pink band aid.

Napanganga ako ng tinignan ko yun. I stifle my laugh kasi when did he brought a band aid? tas pink pa?

Pagkatapos niyang ilagay ang band aid agad niya akong tinulungan tumayo at sabay kaming lumabas sa tent. My feet feels a lot better and lightweight.

Paglabas namin sumali ulit kami ng activities since mukhang masaya naman. I can't just sit there and magmukmuk dahil sa maliit na sugat sa aking paa. I want to devour this camping dahil hind ko alam kung kailan mauulit 'to.

Hanggang sa makakaya ko gusto ko na ienjoy ang buhay pagiging teenager nang walang pinagsisihan dahil sa hindi ko ginawa ang isang bagay kahit alam ko sa sarili ko na makakaya ko.

Life is full of mysteries, hindi mo alam kung ano mangyayari bukas, sasusunod na buwan o taon. As much as possible live it to the fullest, take risks and accept mistakes. Life's too short para magmukmuk sa gilid, why not pick yourself up and learned from those regrets. Taking risks isn't always ends up negatively, sometimes they we're lessons learned in life or wholesome memories. In the end of the day you'll just realized that it was worth risking for.

We just did more activities and I was laughing historically while seeing my classmates being chaotic. I burst out my laughter more when I saw Xaven na tinulak nila kaya bumagksak sa kaputikan. He cursed many times kasi napuno na siya ng putik na para bang nag swimming at nabasa. His white t-shirt turned into brown shirt.

I was laughing at his face kasi mukha siyang inaapi, when he saw me he immediately rose up at hinabol ako. Again tumakbo ako but this time nahuli niya ako.

Agad niya akong iniharap sa kanya at linagyan ng putik yung mukha ko. I was shocked by his actions but agad akong kumuha ng kumpol na putik sa tabi at binato sa pagmumukha niya eh kaso nakailag siya kaya natamaan si Mia na nasa likod niya.

Nagulat siya at binato pabalik saakin pero nakailag ako kaya kay Kevin napunta yung putik. Hanggang sa naghagishagisan na sila kasali nadin yung mga teachers.

Maraming putik sa paligid dahil sa malakas na ulan kagabi kaya ending lahat kami naghahishagisan ng putik. Everyone was screaming, giggling, laughing and complaining but each one of us was having the best moments of a lifetime.

We did more activities before we all decided na bumalik sa hotel.

Pagdating namin we we're shocked ng makitang mga basang sisiw yung taga STEM. Diba sa ilog sila?

At mukhang nakipagrambulan yung mga taga TVL, sa bundok sila ah? Habang kami naman ay puno ng putik yung katawan. We just laughed at each other and proceed to the Hotel.

My shoe laces we're untied kaya I bent at tinali ko muna sme students we're already inside habang ako nalang natitira sa labas. Naganggat ako ng tingin ng may makitang dalawang sapatos sa harap ko.

Xaven.

"Bilisan mo nahuhuli na tayo." hinihintay niya ako?

I quickly finished doing my laces at tumayo ng tuwid. "Thanks!" I smiled at him. He just rolled his eyes at naglakad papasok sa hotel habang nakapamulsa.

Psh.

Agad akong naligo pagpasok ko sa kwarto, nararamdaman ko na ang kalagkitan at pangangamoy na galing sa putik na nasa katawan ko. Sakto ding kakalabas palang ni Xaven. Ay mukhang fresh yarn?

He was wipping his hair with a grey towel and wearing a white sando and sweatpants. His broad shoulders, biceps and triceps we're showing up. Halatang palaging naggygym eh napalunok ako.

Nilingon niya ako at agad akong nagiwas ng tingin. Mabilis ko siyang nilagpasan at pumasok ng banyo.

Paglabas ko nakahiga si Xaven habang nagcecellphone. When he saw me agad niya akong tinaasan ng kilay at pinasadahan ng tingin ang aking suot.

I am wearing a comfy oversized white t-shirt na nakatuck in sa fitted skirt na black. I rolled my eyes at him and brushed my hair and rolling my bangs.

After preparing myself sabay kaming lumabas ni Xaven papunta sa may buffet area. I seated next to Athalia, Iraia was talking non stop about her varsity crush kung paano daw siya sinalo kanina nung muntik na siyang madapa. Amaris was laughing with her while Athalia was just listening, Tiffany was oddly quiet.

I looked at Xaven and he was no where to be found, the foof was served and we just ate peacefully.

I was shocked when a boba tea suddenly appeared on my table with a veiny hand holding it.

My eyes twinkle in amusement, Salted Caramel my fav!!

I looked up and I was shocked when I saw Xaven.

"Here."

"Huh? Akin?!" Shock was written on my voice.

"Saan ka kumuha niyan? Wala namang ganyan sa menu ah? Saan ka bumili? Paano mo nalaman na Salted Caramel fav ko? Hala-" napatigil ako sa mga sunod sunod na tanong ko ng tumikhim siya.

"I made it. Kunin mo na daming pang arte." He irritatedly answered. I smiled at him and tasted the boba.

My eyes widened! "B-bakit? hindi masarap?" kinakabahang tanong ni Xaven.

OMG! ANG SARAPP!!!

Agad ko siyang nilingon, "MASARAP!" he narrowed his eyes and turned walking to their table. I followed looking at his back and I was shocked nung makita kong andun yung varsity crush ni Iraia. Their friends?

"Huy penge ako!" sabay hablot ni Iraia sa boba ko, agad ko naman siyang nilingon at binawi yung drink ko.

"Ayoko."
