"Can I kiss you, then?"
"Bakit? Anong dahilan para halikan mo ako?"
"Because I want to"
"Bakit gusto mo?"
"Because you are attractive and I am attracted to you, Ate..."
Napailing ako.
"Then no, you can't! Just because you know about my past, you can assume that I am easy. Kahit pa bet kita, no you can't kiss me!"
Mariin na sagot ko sa kanya, nakatingala at nakatitig sa maamo niyang mga mata.
"I knew it. That answers your previous question, Ate. Gago na kung gago but I will not apologize about that kiss without your consent!"
Wow! Talaga bang minsan kong nagustuhan ang pakboy at immature na batang ito?!
"Oh akala ko ba, kind ka? Anyway! I hope na hindi na maulit ito, okay? Hindi ako nag tutoothbrush at tamad akong maligo, legit yan! That should help your so-called attraction die down. Huwag mo akong paglaruan brader, please lang!"
I finally looked away and sighed deeply. I realized that I've been holding my breath for how many seconds?! Damn this kid!
"That's why they are head over heels, huh?"
Bulong nito.
Mahirap man sa akin ay tumingala ako ulit sa kanya, pinapatay ang nararamdamang pagkailang.
"Maybe. But look at me now, nganga diba? They can't just fight for me, stay with me, no matter how much they love me as they claim. Wala silang paninindigan! And I hope that you are different, lalo na't future lawyer ka. Mali yung ginawa mo kaya huwag mo nang ulitin yun, sa akin man o sa ibang tao!"
I glared at him to further prove my point at tuluyan nang umalis doon. Bwisit!
Mabuti na lang at wala naman na kaming dahilan para magkita o mag-usap pa. Wrong move pa yata yung social media connections namin but it will be weird if I will just remove him! Bakit ako bitter, eh hindi naman naging kami?!
Kahit pa nga pagtapos nitong ginawa niya, parang weird pa rin! That will only mean that I am so damn affected!
Sapat na yung nasagi ang ego at pride ko sa pag "kind-kid" zone niya sa akin! At mukhang balak pa yata akong gawing biktima ng semi-pakboy na ito!
Thanks, but no thanks!!!
