3: You've Turned My Limbics Into A Boquet.

(⬆️⬆️)

We were now currently in the van, One of us we're getting dropped off. But for me? it was probably the worst experience i've had; They've forced Me to go Geayan's car instead of Blythe's. 

----

"Ah! 'di na tayo kasya," Sadie said, looking at Sevanna with a look; And Sadie looked at the others, wiggling her eyebrows and they immediately got it. "What do you mean? kasya p-" Geayan tried to speak, but was cut off by Jasmine.

"Oo nga eh! 'di na kasya! Sorry Sev, mukhang kay Geayan ka muna magpapahatid." Sevanna gave them a death stare. "Sorry, kasya pa talaga eh, look." she tried getting the car, but was stopped by Madilyn. "Ayy! hindi na talaga bess, punong puno ng mga..Gamit namin oh," Madilyn put some random stuff in the empty gap.

"Sakay ka na kay Geayan oh Sev, para makauwi ka na ng maayos." Mika stifled a chuckle, looking at Geayan, who was giving her a Dirty and angered look. 

----

I was sitting in the passenger seat, arms crossed and my eyes we're focused on the road ahead. Not even batting a glance at Geayan. 

As the car stopped to halt at a traffic, she looked at me. I noticed it in the corner of my eyes; but didn't look back of course. I don't wanna end up in a heated argument with her.

I could hear her sigh, reaching out for her phone, realizing. "Uhm, pakuha nga ng Cellphone ko dyan sa Glovebox." she cleared her throat, looking at me again. I opened the glovebox, which revealed some papers and other stuff, i searched through and found her phone.

Giving to her; our fingers brushed for a moment, i had..My body quivered as i felt her fingers touch mine. This was the first and last interaction i could ever do with her. 

"'lamat." I nodded, my eyes trailing back infront of the road. 

----

There was minutes of silence. Not one of us dared to speak to eachother again; well until she broke it. "So uhm, 'musta na?" She put her phone down, her hands going to the steering while, not making eye contact yet.

"Okay lang, ikaw?" I asked the question back, shifting in my seat and finally looking at her again. "Same din.." she nodded, tapping the wheel with her finger. There was silence again, with only the hum of the aircon infront of me, and some cars honking outside.

"Gusto mo ba ng music? para 'di naman boring." She questioned again, looking at me. I looked back once more before responding; "Yeah sure, ikaw or ako pipili?"

"Well, i guess i'll let you pick. You have good music taste naman eh." She smiled, i nodded and touched the buttons on the screen in the middle.

Geayan started bopping her head a bit to the music, and i just hummed the song. Comfortable silence, waiting for the traffic to start so i can get home, and her.

Pinsala'y ikinamada
Oh binibining may salamangka
You've turned my limbics into a bouquet

As the lyrics echoed through the car, I looked back at Geayan, and i already caught her Gazing at me. We locked eyes, feeling ourselfs in a k-drama tv show at the moment. With background music.

"Corny naman neto.." I mumbled. "Luh," she said, hearing what i said and rolled her eyes focusing back on the road.

"Ako'y patuloy na mararahuyo sa ganda..." She sang along quietly, incoherently, i swore i heard my name. "Ng Isang Sevanna Catacutan.." 

"Ha? ansabi mo?" 

"Wala wala, sabi ko, mararahuyo ako sa ganda."

"Nino?"

"Ng...Isang Sevanna Catacutan."

"Sorry, ano? hindi talaga kita marinig."

"Sev, You've turned my limbics into a Boquet."

I was shocked, hearing her say that. Infront of me myself, i didn't think she'd have the guts to say that, especially, infront of me. Bare face, and looking at Eachother. This was starting to feel like straight out of a movie.

"You're joking, right? Is this one of your made up corny jokes?"

"No. I'm not joking."

I stayed silent, Proccesing her words, what she said; everything. After these years she'd have the guts to tell me? seriously? 

I Rubbed my eyes for a moment, looking at Geayanna, then rubbed it again; looking back at the girl. And it was actually real. 

----

We've arrived at my neighbourhood, With Geayan dropping me off my house. The ride here was silenced; After what happend earlier. I stepped out of the car, waving bye to Geayan as she waved back with a smile.

"Ingat ka ah," I said, as she nodded.

"Mhm," she hummed. "ikaw na nagsabi nyan eh.." i heard her mumble.

"ha? ano?"

"wala wala! alis na 'ko ah? sige sige na, bye!" 

"Ah— wait, tek-" Before i could finish off, she already had drove away. This girl and her mumbling..

I sighed, turning to the front door of my house. Until the door opened revealing my mother; "Ikaw talagang bata ka! hayss, pumasok ka na. May ulam na doon." She hurriedly said, hurrying me inside the house as i took off my shoes in one go and scurried to the dining room.

"Sev, You've turned my Limbics Into A Boquet.." 

Her words left a mark on my mind, an itch i couldn't scratch perhaps. Those words she said we're brawling in my brain, how could she be that straight forward?; i mean, we aren't together anymore. She should remind herself that...

But, part of me felt butterflies..


"Mukhang delikado nanaman ako.."

Those words left my lips in a whisper, as i looked at the blank ceiling. 

This is...New.
