SAMANTHA POV:

"And that's how you graph the linear equations that passes through two points"he said as the closing of our tutoring.

My mouth opened like I dropped my jaw. I blink multiple times as I stare at the paper where the formula and solvation is written.

Ang dali lang pala?ba't naiyak pa ako roon?kung ganoon lang pala 'yon?

"That's how you solve it pala?it's not that so hard pala, kaoahan ko lang ata 'yon"I commented as I hold my chin.

My face is still amazed, which made him chuckle. "Can't blame you, I almost throw my notebook kanina nga rin eh. It's just, you need a peace of mind and concentration talaga, to completely understand it. Which is kasalungat mo kanina"sabi niya at sinuklay ang buhok niya gamit ang mga daliri niya saka inayos ito.

Napa-iwas naman ako ng tingin.

"Thankyou for this, thankyou for giving your 1 hour to help me understand this. Huhu, I can't really express my gratitude and appreciation lang talaga, but I deeply appreciates it. To mention pa na may test tayo nito bukas, so it's a really big help. What can I get you as return?"I said.

He smiles that make his eyes disappeared, cute. "You don't need to get me a return, seeing you pass the test tomorrow, is enough."

This point, I'm also smiling softly now. "hahaha, I will ace the test tomorrow, as return. Deal?"I stated while still wearing my soft smile.

He's amazed by my statement so he takes five seconds to look at me before responding. "Sure, as you should. And, I believe on you though, it's a piece of cake for you"he commented before leaning to the chair while still looking at me.

"Not so piece of cake naman, you're one of the reasons naman why I have a chance to ace the test tomorrow"sabi ko at niligpit na ang mga gamit ko.

Pinanood niya lang akong ligpitin ang mga gamit ko at hindi na umimik na ulit. Nang matapos kong magligpit, napatingin ako sakaniya, and to my suprised, he's also looking at me which ends up we're looking at each other eyes.

As I still looking at his eyes, it's the same thing and feeling, something is on his eyes, his eyes wants to say something that his mouth can't.

"Ah, I need to go, I need to meet my friends pa in the near cafe in this school pa eh. Thankyou talaga sa pagtulong sa'kin sà mathematics ha, lubos kong naintindihan ito. Kung may free time ka pa, can I approach you?"tanong ko saka napangiti.

Napangiti naman siya, well, is that a yes?

"Suree, by the way, I'm always free on 4:10 p.m"he reminded me.

4:10 p.m?if 4:10 p.m, our classes always ends up 3:50 p.m, if it will require an overtime, it will be 4:00 p.m.

"Oh, okeyy. Thankyou again!"I announces before standing up and leaving the area with a bright smile.

——

"How was it?"Leicel immediately asked as she saw me approaching the table already.

Yung pag-aaral o ang pagtuturo niya sa'kin?

"H-ha?yung ano?"tanong ng lutang kong utak. Pinitik muna ako ni Leicel sa noo bago sinagot ang tanong ko.

"Tinatanong ka, sasagutin mo rin ng tanong. Itong babae talaga"reklamo niya at hinawakan ang braso ko.

"Dali, kwentuhan mo kami sa lamesa"agad niyang yaya sa'kin at hinatak nang mahina ang braso ko habang papunta sa lamesa namin.

Nang tuluyang kaming makaabot sa lamesa namin. Nakangiti silang kumakain at may kaunting tawanan. Ang ganda ng ganitong eksena ha.

"Musta tutor ni Mr.Oresco?"nang-aasar na tanong ni Raven.

"What's with that tone?anyways, it went so well, he's so good in teaching, he have an opportunity to be a teacher in the future"I commented and have a soft smile in my lips.

"May chismis ako about jan huy!"nasasabik na wika ni Raven nang may ngisi sa labi niya.

Agad napaupo ang lahat at atat na atat na inayos ang sarili para makarinig nang maayos sa cheeze miz.

"Don't you know ba, from the chismis of the students in the campus—"Raven stopped from spilling the tea when he noticed that I am planning to have a bite on the cupcake.

"Samantha! makinig ka huyy! para saiyo talaga 'to"biglang pagsagot ni Raven kaya napatigil ako sa plinaplano ko, habang ang iba naman sa mga kaibigan namin ay napatawa nalang.

"Nakikinig ako! sino bang nagsabi na hindi ako nakikinig?"agad na komento ko at napasimangot na napasandal sa upuan at itinuon nalang ang atensyon sa ikukukwento ni Raven.

"So I was saying, from the rumors of students in this campus, don't you know ba...Believe it or not, Mr.Oresco hates to tutor someone?even his friends?"Raven finally spilled the tea.

All of our friends gave their glazes to me as ả meaningful smile formed on their lips as they also move their eyebrow up and down.

And I'm not dumb to know what they're trying to say.

"Ang delulu niyo talaga! stop nga kayo sa mga ganyan niyo, abot ko yan!"sabi ko at inilagay ang mga braso ko sa dibdib ko.

"Asus"halos lahat sila ganyan ang naging komento.

"Guys, it's a rumor okeyy?don't believe on what've you heard so easily. And, if the rumors is true naman talaga, it might he's not busy lang, that's why he had a time to tutored me earlier"I explained as I continued my plan to take a bite on the cupcake.

"Hirap nitong kausapin sa mga ganitong bagay eh, halos lahat may what if at explanasyon sa parehong panig o mangyari"sabi naman ni Leicel, napangiti naman ako.

"Kaya siya palaging nag-o-overthink eh, pasan-pasan niya lahat"sabi naman ni Jovie, agad nawala ang ngiti ko at inambahan siya ng pitik.

"Ba't nananampal ka ng katotohanan ah?hmp"tanging naging wika ko nalang at inayos ang pagkakaupo ko.

"Oh c'mon guys, we should not give malicious things on simple actionswe receive from people we don't deeply know"Shan stated, making me smile.

"O diba, I am right! we're on the same road ni Shan!"I asserted.

Nakipag-apir naman ako kay Shan, but he just gave a chuckle and focus on his phone again.

Aba! bas2s na bata! ganyan ba talaga 'yan?

"Kumain nalang nga tayo, walang patutunguhan itong topic natin pag ganito mga tao o kausap natin"Raven declared like we've just offended his whole genes.

"Tama"
"So true"

Minsan talaga, parang gusto kong mamisa ng mga kaibigan eh. Pero syempre, minsan lang, mga 99%
