Reconnect
My first years of being a college student wasn't that bad, I gained friends and from time to time I go home and visit my family, though hindi nga lang nagtatagal kung minsan.
" Miss Lugue will represent our department for the upcoming pageant " Miss Salazar our professor said it with finality.
" Looks like you've got no choice Ace" nakangising biro ng aking seatmate nasi Zariel.
I like fashion because I can somehow express my passion for art, but joining pageantry is a whole lot different. Though, I'm not new to this, sakatunayan nung first year college kami I bagged the crown kahit na first time kung sumali. But this time it's different. Hindi sa school namin gaganapin ang nasabing pageant, it will be held at Ratchford University. At kung iniisip niyong ang tinutukoy kung unibersidad ay ang school kung saan nag- aaral si Ethan, tama kayo.
'Will he be there?
Dahil nga papalapit na ang pageant ay medyo nabusy din kami sa paghahanda.
" The photoshoot sessions will be held at Casa de Viera later this afternoon, exactly 2 pm" pag uulit ni Miss Calvados ang head organizer ng pageant.
Ang tema ng nasabing photoshoot ay beach body.
Wearing my Versace medusa head one-piece swimsuit, with each fabric hugging the curves in all the right places which accentuates my silhouette, I confidently enter the pool area where the photoshoot is held.
" One... two... three... pose" I step to the edge of the pool, feeling the cool water lapping at my feet. With one leg delicately lifted and toes pointed, I extend my arm gracefully above my head. The shimmering water surrounds me, reflecting the sunlight, creating a serene and elegant backdrop for the perfect shot.
" Great job everyone, the photos will be sent to your teams so you guys are given the privilege to choose kung alin sa mga photos nyo ang gusto nyong gamitin" si Miss Calvados na halatang natuwa sa outcome ng mga litrato.
Malayo sa aking apartment ang Casa de Viera kaya minabuti nalamang ng aking mga handler na magbook na lamang ng hotel at bukas na umuwi. It was a very long and tiring day after all.
Wala akong magawa sa aking room kaya't naisipan kung e-text nalamang si Ethan.
To Tinatangi:
* Hi Ethan it's been 2 years since the first time I texted you through this old number of yours HEHEHE . I miss you so much. I had a very tiring day today, nag photoshoot kac kami for the upcoming pageant.
I hope to see you there.
Walang araw na hindi ko sya inaupdate sa lahat ng pangyayari sa buhay ko kahit na alam kung hindi nya iyon mababasa ay kuntinto na ako roon.
It was also my first day at school when I started texting him using the old number I've got from Adel.
" You still text him through that old number I gave you?" si Adel sa hindi makapaniwalang tono.
Minabuti ko nalang kasing makipagchikahan dito kaysa lumabas ng room. Tumawag kac ito kani-kanina lang dahil nababagot sa kanilang bahay.
" Yup"
" You know what, I'll just give you his new number, para saan pa at magkaibigan tayo" wika nito.
" You know my stand for that"
" Eh kaysa naman sa text ka ng text hindi nya naman yan mababasa, what's the use diba" medyo sarkastiko na ang tono nito kaya natawa nalamang ako sa kaibigan.
"Anyways, how's the pageant?"
" Ayos lang., medyo nakakapagod ngalang. I still have a week to prepare kaya ok lang naman"
" Don't tell me kinakabahan ka?"
