A Certain Someone Chapter 61: Gifts
Jiang Tian's grandpa always preferred old gadgets. His phone, with a font as big as a copper bell, was proof of that. Jiang Tian once tried to gift him a smartphone, even promising to teach him how to use it, but Grandpa refused, grumbling that his eyesight wasn't what it used to be.
One evening, Sheng Wang received an unexpected call from Grandpa. "Philip's here, bothering me again. Take Jiang Tian somewhere else to eat. Don't tell him Philip's here."
Sheng Wang chuckled. Grandpa's fake angry tone gave it away. "I'll see what I can do," he teased, knowing Jiang Tian's mood would sour if he heard Philip's name.
Si Jiang Tian ay may komplikadong relasyon sa kanyang amang si Philip, na hindi ganap na nauunawaan ni Sheng Wang. Gusto ni Philip na magkaayos sila ng anak, ngunit tinutulak siya palayo ni Jiang Tian. Hindi ito dahil sa takot—hindi natatakot si Jiang Tian kay Philip—kundi dahil sa pagkasuklam. Ang huling pagtatangka ni Philip na maging isang ama ay mas lalo lang nagpabigat sa damdamin ni Jiang Tian.
Nang hapon na iyon, nagtungo sila sa canteen kasama ang mga kaibigan nila. Si Ben, na laging pasaway, ay nadulas sa basahan at tumama sa sahig. Natawa nang malakas si Sheng Wang at napasandal kay Jiang Tian para sumuporta sa sarili. Bahagyang ngumiti si Jiang Tian, isang bihirang ngiti na nagpatibok ng puso ni Sheng Wang.
"tawang tawa sheng ah!," sabi ni Ben habang hinihimas ang kanyang likod. "Sheng, libre mo na ako ng pork cutlet. Buwis buhay pa ako para dito!" Biniro niya pa si Sheng Wang at nagpadala ng halik sa ere.
Jiang Tian, quick to act, snatched Ben's campus card and dangled it in front of him. "I'll buy pork cutlet," he said coolly. "Now say that again."
Sheng Wang couldn't help but laugh. Even the simplest moments with Jiang Tian made him feel lighter. As they stood in line for food, Jiang Tian turned to him, voice low and calm, "Are you hot?"
Ngumiti si Sheng Wang, "Hindi naman, medyo distracted lang." Hindi siya sanay sa banayad na lambing ni Jiang Tian, pero gusto niya iyon.
Dinner passed quickly, and as they returned to the classroom for self-study, Sheng Wang's mind drifted back to the earlier call. He was curious, but he didn't want to push Jiang Tian about his relationship with Philip. Instead, he found himself focusing on the way Jiang Tian always seemed to quietly care for him, in small, unexpected ways.
Later that evening, when Sheng Wang returned to the dormitory earlier than usual, he looked around. "Where's Jiang Tian?" he asked.
"He's still studying," Pete replied, not looking up from his phone. "He's been working on some competition stuff."
Sheng Wang nodded and went to the balcony to cool off. He sat there, lost in thought, until he heard the balcony door creak open behind him.
Lumabas si Jiang Tian, tumayo nang tahimik sa harap ni Sheng Wang. Pagkalipas ng ilang sandali, iniabot niya ang isang makapal na libro na nakabalot. "Para sa'yo."
"Ano 'to?" tanong ni Sheng Wang habang binubuklat ang mga pahina.
"Ginawa ko ang ilang mga practice problems para sa'yo. Sinabi mo kasing kulang ang mga materials ng teacher. Baka makatulong ito."
Hindi makapagsalita si Sheng Wang. Sa loob ng libro, maayos na nakakat at nakategorya ang mga tanong, kumpleto sa mga paliwanag at sagot, lahat inihanda ni Jiang Tian.
"Ginawa mo lahat 'to?" tanong ni Sheng Wang nang marahan, naantig sa pagsisikap ni Jiang Tian.
Nagkibit-balikat si Jiang Tian, hindi mabasa ang ekspresyon sa kanyang mukha. "Akala ko makakatulong sa'yo."
Naramdaman ni Sheng Wang na parang may kumurot ang kanyang dibdib, hindi dahil sa lungkot, kundi dahil kay tian. Tumayo siya, marahang isinara ang libro. "para kang si Doraemon, Alam mo palagi kung ano ang kailangan ko,," sabi niya, habang lumalapit kay Jiang Tian.
For a moment, they stood in the quiet of the balcony, the evening air cool around them. Sheng Wang hesitated, then leaned in, resting his forehead lightly against Jiang Tian's. "Thank you," he whispered.
Jiang Tian's hand found its way to Sheng Wang's, their fingers brushing together. ""Balik ka nang mas maaga sa susunod," Jiang Tian murmured, voice softer than usual. "I missed you."
Sheng Wang smiled, squeezing his hand gently. "I will."
