The Rain of Hearts (Seasons of Love #1)

01

1st year College, Psychology Student, Sade Calyx Fortura

"Fortura!"

Naglalakad ako sa hallway ng aming campus at lumingon ako para tignan kung sino ang tumawag sakin.

Si Matt lang pala. Matt is my friend, yung friend na lagi akong hinahanapan ng chix. Yeah, that's right....chix.

"What do you want?"

"We have another party, wanna come?", tanong nya.

"Of course, sino ba naman ako para tanggihan ang grasya?", saad ko.

I mean, sino ba nga naman ako para tanggihan iyon? Isang grasya na iyon. Malay natin, makakuha pa ako ng magandang babae.

You can say na "fuckboy" ako pero di ko na id-deny iyon. I've got the looks, the money, the body, and....yes...a giant talong-ESTE giant heart and mind.

"Matt! Tigilan mo nga kakaaya kay Sade, ipapahamak mo pa yan. Paano kapag nahawa say ng STD from other girls? Gagamutin mo ba? 'Diba Hindi?!", sumigaw si Irish.

Natawa na lamang akong pinagmamasdan ang away ng dalawa kong kaibigan. They're always like that. Bickering like cats and dogs. Bagay naman sila.

Hinayaan ko nalang mag-away silang dalawa, because I know for a fact na matatapos rin agad iyon. Just as I looked at who's at the side of Irish, I saw another student. She looks plain....she wears thick rounded glasses, her hair's mid-length wavy, but it seems she's not taking care of it. And she also looks.......I don't know how to describe it.....She lacks that sex appeal.

Isa lang ang natanong ko sa isip ko. Why the hell Irish would hangout with a plain woman like that?

"A-ate, we should go na, Mama and Papa are waiting for us in the parking lot.", she shyly said to the furious Irish beside her.

"Fine! Just so remember Matt, Hindi pa tayo tapos.", nagdadabog na saad ni Irish.

"Yan, that's right. Umuwi ka na, 'pag nandito ka nagiiba ihip ng hangin eh, parang ihip na andyan na yung aso. You always bark like a dog.", Matt said with a teasing tone in his voice.

Akmang susugurin siya ni Irish dahil sa pang-aasar into. Pero bago pa masugod ni Irish si Matt ay pinigilan na ito ng kapatid niya ata iyon.

"You should go now, Irish. We'll call for tomorrow's student meeting nalang."

Irish sighed and eyed Matt. She continued to walk away, while Matt is teasing her.

"Thank you.", Irish's sister said and then followed her.

That girl..... she's Irish's sister?

Yun ang pumasok sa isip ko. A plain woman like her is Irish's sister? It's not like I'm judging her, it's just......okay yeah, I'm judging her.

"If you're thinking about boobs, it's reasonable kung bakit ka natutulala, but if it's Irish you're thinking. Bro, I'm telling you, you're in for a ride in hell.", sabi ni Matt sakin sabay tapik sa balikat ko.

Bumalik ako sa reyalidad at hindi ko namalayang nasampal ko na pala ang kaibigan ko. What the fuck?!

"Matt, kadiri ka. Irish is our friend. My friend. Kahit kailanman ay hindi ako papatol sa kanya.", may paninindigan kong saad.

"Yeah, bro. Siguraduhin mo lang, ayokong maging third wheel sainyong dalawa.", siniko niya ako at nauna nang maglakad.

Nagulat naman ako nang bumaling ito ulit paharap sa akin.

"Another thing, wag mong kakalimutan ang party mamaya. I'm gonna go first. See you later, Fortura."

Matt waved goodbye to me while walking away. I looked at my watch and starts to head to my car. Of course, mag-aayos pa ako. Not that may kailangan pa akong ayusin sa katawan ko.
