Today's monday, and our professors will be giving our examination scores in this semester. Though, I did well, but there's still nervousness in my system. Maybe because even when I did well, and I am good, I still don't really know if I have done enough. My thoughts were cut off when Kade approached me.
"Hey babe, our score in Banking Laws is out. You are the highest, congrats my best-" He wasn't able to finish his words because one of our classmate interrupted our conversation.
"Yo Thad! You are the highest in our Criminal Procedure subject! Here's your paper, nag distribute na kasi si Soleia kanina. Also, congrats Adira! You'e one of the highest too! 99/100 kay Thad, tapos 98/100 ang sa'yo.” Criminal Procedure is my favorite subject. Yet I got two mistakes. What the hell just happened???
I was about to complain but then I remembered. I just adviced someone to now be so overcompetitive because of pressure. 1 point lang naman ang lamang ni Kade eh, and besides, there is still other subjects, and I am the highest in Banking Law my second favorite subject.
Kade hold my hands as he look at me with his soft eyes. I know what's going next. He'll try his very best to talk to me, kasi baka na f-feel bad ako.
Well, honestly, yes. But, that doesn't mean I'll cause a fight again just like our first year-first sem. Para saan pa na nag advice ako and visited therapist but I can't change myself right? And just like last year, I managed to survive in the last semester.
“Hey, I know what you are thinking. Naur, it's okay for me. Congrats, darling!” I gave him a kiss on his cheeks.
Kade is very soft, patient, and understanding towards me. Sino ba naman ako para bigyan siya ng sakit sa puso 'di ba? Or rason para ma feel bad rin siya sa sarili niya for doing enough, para hindi ako pagbigyan. Of course not. Just like how generations changes, life and personality of a person also change.
Before, I would never accept if someone got a higher score than mine, even if it's just a one freaking point. However, now? It's okay for me. I know, I have said emotional relationship is out when it comes to studies, but I also have to consider the fact of causing a fight just because of that. One thing I have also realized, even if emotional relationship is out when it comes to our studies— your actions, or what you have done in your studies doesn't need to be perfect. Like, if now? If I would cause a fight, it would affect Kade's feelings. So, naur. 98 is okay.
“B-But Criminal Procedure is your favorite subject...” I squeezed his hand softly to assure him that it really is okay.
It's the time of giving grades, not a time for competing in school. Our actions sa klase is out of the result. Kung dati, I would question the teacher why 99??? Now, I wouldn't. I guess, life really change. And for me, that's growing. I am improving.
“Really? Can I take you out on a date after this?” I smiled to his words. Of course, who wouldn't agree to Thaddeus Kade Lopez? From the bottom of my heart, it's a freaking YES.
“Of course, babe. Actually, I was thinking let's not ask for our scores, besides, it will come out in our grade portal.” Ngumiti naman ito sa ideya ko at umalis kami.
“I will not choose a place, you choose where tayo.” He said while we are in the car.
Lumingon naman ako sa kanya at sumagot. “Nah! You should. It's not always na decision ko labg ang e consider, para saan pa na law students tayo 'di ba? If we can't have an equality even in our relationship.” He smiled and kissed my cheeks.
“Alright, I'll bring you to my favorite cake and coffee shop.” I just happily nodded and waited when kami makakarating sa destination namin.
Few minutes have passed, and now we are here. Pinagbukasan niya naman ako ng pinto at bumaba na kami.
