Edrei Levine Navarro

Ang pogi pati ng pangalan!

Edrei: what are you up to?

Right after I agreed to getting to know each other, he willingly gave me his socials so that I would comfortable sharing mine daw. Of course, hindi na ako nag-inarte! We're now chatting on Messenger pero minsan ay sa Instagram din. The only thing we haven't talked about was if we were willing to meet in person already.

Juleanne: omw home, you?

Edrei: still in class.

Juleanne: bakit ka nagmi-message? makinig ka dyan.

Edrei: discussion got boring lol.

Hayst. So he finds it fun talking to me!? Char! I didn't want to get ahead of myself this time. Hahayaan ko na talaga ang tadhana. Kung siya, edi siya!

Sana nga siya.

Juleanne: how's Pharmacy treating you?

Edrei: beating my ass. how are you in Psych?

I bit my lip to stifle a smile because of his reply. Ang formal ng typings niya pero feeling ko kanal humor 'to!

Juleanne: it's fun pero i think it's only because i have a light load. siguro saka pa ako papahirapan nang todo kapag nag-second year na.

Edrei: maybe but just make the most out of it :)

Edrei: have to go. may quiz pala HAHAHAHA

Nanlaki ang mga mata ko sa sinabi niya. May quiz pala tapos dinadaldal ko siya!?

Juleanne: sorry baka nadistract ka pa dahil sakin. good luck sa quiz!

Hindi na siya nagreply so I assumed that he was taking his quiz already. Nagmanifest na lang ako na sana ay pasado siya.

"Thanks Manong Pao. Ingat kayo ni Manong Joey pauwi!" I smiled at them when I got out of the car.

It was already a few days after Dad's hearing and he won the case. He usually doesn't let Manong Pao go home for a few more days after hearings dahil baka raw may magtangka pa sa'min. Ngayon na parang sigurado naman na sila na wala, saka palang sila uuwi sa probinsya.

Pagkapasok ko sa bahay ay naligo na ako at gumawa ng requirements. It was only 2 in the afternoon and dahil nga short term ngayon, tatlo lang ang klaseng pinapasukan ko! My classes were 7:30 - 1:30 from Monday to Saturday and then after that, free na ako.

Aki's schedule was much heavier compared to mine. Kahit na short term ay hanggang 5:00 pa rin siya! Natapos ako around 3:30 kaya lumabas muna ako para bumili ng iluluto ko. Hindi naman kalayuan ang public market dito so kayang-kaya kong lakarin.

When I finished buying everything I needed, I went to a nearby grocery to get some ice cream. That was my stress reliever. Binilhan ko na lang din si Aki ng kanya para lang may makain din siya kapag naistress.

"Putangina. Fuck!" I muttered curses under my breath when I saw a familiar figure. It was Edrei! He was with two more guys who I think were his friends.

I looked down at myself and realized that I was only wearing an oversized shirt, denim shorts, and my crocs. Naka-messy bun lang din ang buhok ko tapos wala akong makeup! Hindi pa kami pwedeng magkita in person!

Nang makita kong lilingon na siya ay agad akong tumalikod at nagmadaling maglakad palayo. Sana hindi niya ako nakita! Please! Please Lord!

Hinihingal ako nang makauwi ako. Mabuti na lang din at nabayaran ko na 'yung ice cream bago ako tumakas doon. Namula ako nang makitang nagmessage sa'kin si Edrei. Shit!
