Meeting the one

Chapter 1

I was a child when i wished to be a grown woman immediately, but now that I'm a grown lady, i suddenly regret what i wished for.

Akala ko pag malaki na tayo, pag kaya na nating tumayo sa mga sarili na nating mga paa, akala ko malaya na tayo, na pwede na nating gawin kung ano man ang gusto nating gawin…

But why do i feel suffocated like this, i wish i could go back from the time when it's alright, there's nothing else matter, there's nothing responsibility, i wish i was a kid again.

Why's the world is so cruel to us? We didn't even do anything wrong, we just go to the flow, we're just keeping forward but why do we still encountering some trials.?

“mila napasa mo na sa office ni ma'am yung activity natin,?” putol ni eya sa aking pag iisip, isa sa mga kagrupo ko sa aming activity sa english.

“uhm kanina pa.” sagot ko.

Umalis ako sa room at nagtungo sa soccer field, tanaw na tanaw ko sa aking kinauupuan ang malaking poster na may nakasulat na “MINDANAO CORPORATE UNIVERSITY SCHOOL”

I clearly remember the first time when i went here, I'm so lost, because i don't have any friends, but when days passes by i gradually got friends.

I really don't have any regrets regarding about me going school here in santa lesa aracoza, somewhere part in mindanao. but i really miss my hometown which is so far from here.

while watching the scenery peacefully, i saw someone who's so familiar, coming to me.

“Luke, musta?” bati ko habang umuupo siya sa tabi ko.

“eto, humihinga pa naman.” sagot niya na ikinatawa ko.

luke is a very close friend of mine, he's the one who helped me, since the day when I'm just a newcomer here. kaya sanay na sanay na ako sakanya.

“gago,”

Tumawa lang siya habang pinapanood din ang tanawin.

“Ang hirap maging college student, alam moba yun.” he suddenly mutter, breaking the sudden silence.

“mahirap ba maging civil engineering.” i teased, he's now a second year college taking civil engineering course.

“kung alam mo lang baii!” singhal niya na ikinatawa ko.

“civil engineer pa!”

“ang cool kaya, ayaw mo nun? may kaibigan kang engineer na guwapo.” he said grinning from ear to ear.

“okay na eh! dinagdagan pa!” i joked

Hanggang sa napuno na namin ang buong campus ng aming tawanan.

Nang tumigil na kami, bigla kong naisip yung bilin sa akin ng aming teacher na pupunta ako sa kanyang office bago mag ala una!

Tiningnan ko ang katabi ko at tinanong kung anong oras na.

“twelve fifty pa naman bakit?”

Oh shit! makakahabol pa naman yata ako diba?

“oh sige mauna na ako sayo, may ibinilin sa akin ang teacher namin eh.” paalam ko sabay takbo sa building. ni hindi ko na natapunan ng tingin ang aking kaibigan!

Nang makarating sa office, ay bahagya akong huminga ng malalim bago pumasok.

“Hi ma'am.” i greet when i already inside her office.

“buti dumating kana ipapaabot ko na sana sayo to para ibigay kay ma'am principal, nasa SBM sila ngayon, sasabihin molang na pinapaabot daw ni ma'am mariam then pipirmahan niya yan tapos ibabalik niya agad sayo. naintindihan mo?”
