Serendipity (College Series 1)

Chapter 11

One week has passed ay ngayon na ako mag pre-present nang ppt ko sa sub namin kaya nagbihis ako nang formal at nagsuot ng glasses.

Pagkarating ko sa klase ay agad ko ng inihanda ang gagamitin at gagawin para hindi na ma stress si ma'am.

When ma'am grace arrived, I maintain my straight posture and smile at her. She smile back and wink at me as a support.

Nanginginig ako at natatakot until I saw a handsome man at the back, watching me with a phone in his hands, preparing to take a video of me presenting.

Huminga muna ako nang malalim.

I explain each meaning of the slide that I made, and they all clapped after.

Because of nervousness, I glare at Ethan who mouthed 'i love you' and 'you did great',

Ang sarap sa pakiramdam na may sumusupurta sayo. Nginitian ko nalang siya at naghintay sa sasabihin ni ma'am grace.

"That was excellent, Ms grace"

She compliments me several times, and then decided to hear my classmates to present. She told me na makakaalis na ako kasi tapos na rin naman daw ang presentation ko.

Sabay kami ni Ethan na kumain dahil nagugutom na raw siya.

"Ethan?"

"Hmm?" While sipping his soup.

"Pwede mo ba akong kwentuhan, tungkol sa kuya mo?"

Hindi muna siya gumalaw sabay ngiti.

"My brother loves me a lot, sabi nga sakin ni mom na simula daw ng pinanganak daw ako ay pini picture-ran ako ni Kuya kahit 6 years old palang siya tapos naka album pa raw" natatawa niyang simula.

"Gusto kasi ni kuya magkaroon ng kapatid pero sobrang busy nila mom and dad to do so, kaya 6 years yung gap namin pero never siyang naging masama sakin o ano. Alam mo rin ba na sa tuwing may nambubuly sakin ay naghihiganti siya? Okay lang sa kaniya na siya ang saktan pero pag ako na raw ang usapan, ay hinding hindi niya raw iyon tatalikuran"

Nakikinig lang ako sa gusto kung marinig tungkol sa kuya niya.

"When my brother died, my father become more workaholic but I know, it's his way to avoid himself crying, oo tama ang sinabi ng media na sinasaktan ni papa si kuya pero hindi nila alam na pagkatapos niyang saktan si James ay sinasaktan niya rin ang sarili niya"

I was stunned and nowhere to talk, I thought his father is a bad person.

"Actually, my father is proud of me pero sadyang ako yung nakulangan sa sarili ko eh kasi alam mo na? Ako nalang ang naiwang anak eh" biro niya pa.

"Ahh oo nga pala, aalis ako nang 1 week ha" biglaang paalam niya.

"Huh? Where?"

"We have to go to Australia, our relatives are waiting for us but don't worry, I call you"

Tumango nalang ako at nalungkot.

"Bakit malungkot ka?" He asked.

"You know? Hindi na kita makakasama"

"Susss, ang ka gwapuhan ko talaga" natawa na naman ako sa pagiging GGSS niya.

Siguro ay mabuti na rin na umalis si Ethan para maayos ko yung mga ebidensiya at ibibigay sa pulis para ipaalam sa pamilya ni Ethan. I don't want them to know it was my doings.
