Uwian na! Yehey! I wanna go home.

Biglang nagtext sakin si manang,

From : Manang

Ma'am Frischia, pwede po bang magcommute muna kayo ngayon? Nasira po kasi yung kotse eh.

To : Manang

Okay. Thanks for informing me.

Hay naku! I still need to commute.

As I walk outside the gate, I saw Xander standing beside his car while his hands are on his pockets. Seems like he's waiting for someone. Ang dami tuloy napapalingon at napapatili sa kanya. Pagwapo ata? Hahaha.

Mag-aabang na sana ako ng taxi pero biglang lumapit sakin si Xander.

"What do you think you're doing?" He seemed irritated.

"Waiting for a taxi. Isn't it obvious?" I sarcastically said.

"Can't you see me?" Kunot-noo niya pa ring tanong.

"I can see you because I have my two eyes." Still, I'm being sarcastic.

"I'll drive you home." He declared.

"Ha? Why? Baka magalit yung hinihintay mo if I'll go with you." I said, worried.

Totoo naman diba? Baka magalit yung hinihintay niya kung makikisabay pa ako. I don't wanna ruin their moment if he's with a girl. Baka maka-abala lang ako.

I was startled when he suddenly laugh at me.

"Hahahaha can't you see? I'm waiting for you. Only you." Nakangisi niyang sabi.

"Me? Di mo naman sinabi agad!" Natawa na rin ako dahil ang slow ko pala.

"Haha okay. Shall we?" He said while opening the door in the front seat.

"Hahaha okay. Thanks." I replied.

While we're inside his car, we only talk a bit until we arrive.

"Thanks again." I told him.

"I'll fetch you again tomorrow, okay?" Pagpapaalam niya.

"Ha? Sobra ka na. May kotse pa rin naman kami ah!"

"Please?" He pleaded and use his oh-so-cute puppy eyes.

"Hahaha stop that! Sige na. Payag na ako. Pero wag mo rin araw-arawin."

"Opo. Sige. I'll get going." Paalam niya.

I just nod and close the door of his car. Sinundan ko siya ng tingin hanggang sa hindi ko na siya matanaw.

Until I enter our house, he still can't get off my mind. While reminiscing the times with him, I realized that something changed in me. Before, I hate talking to guys or even see their faces. But to him, sobrang gaan ng loob ko. He's a nice guy. I wanna be friends with him because I know that he's nice.

Habang nagdidinner kami ng kapatid ko, nothing changed. She's always the one speaking while I'm the one who listens.

"Ate, I'll ask you something. I want you to be honest with me okay?" She asked habang may pilyang ngiti forming on her lips.

Tumango ako bilang pagpayag.

"Is Xander courting you?" Tanong niya kaya bigla akong nabulunan. She immediately offered me water.

"Ano ka ba! Hindi ah! We're just friends." Sagot ko nang nahimasmasan ako.

"Ay sayang. Gusto ko pa naman siyang maging brother-in-law." She seems like disappointed.

"Study first! Don't think about that stupid things. You're still young." Payo ko sa kanya.

Hanggang sa gabi, hestill don't get off my mind. I don't understand this feeling. It is soconfusing. Is the wall that I built will fall because of him? I hope no. But ifyes, I hope that he won't give me any reason to build that wall again to myheart.w
