"Oh bakit nakabusangot yang mukha mo?"

I sighed heavily and look out of the window

Aliah sat on my lap and caressed my hair in the back of my ear

"I don't know why I feel like I wanted that girl, you know what? I already confessed to her that I like her too."a1

"What? naku Mhasary nagpadala ka naman sa babaeng yun, sabi ko naman sayong Nantitrip lang yun"

"Napanaginipin ko sya Aliah at sya yung lagi kong napapanaginipan na babae."

Aliah laughed and hug my neck

"Baka ako yun? pano mo namang nasabing sya yun? eh lately mo lang sya nakilala, namanipula kalang nun kaya napanaginipan mo."

I took a deep breath and look at her tiredly

she took my hand and put it inside her blouse

"Hug me come on"

I shook my head and pulled out my hand

"Manipula? ano yun?"

"hays, hindi mo ba naisip? pagkatapos ka nyang paasahin na gusto ka nya at nasanay kanang lagi mo syang nahuhuling nakatingin sayo sa labas ng room eh bigla nalang syang hindi nagpaparamdam? sign yun ng paninipula."

"Huh? ganun ba yun? pero iba talaga eh parang may iba pakong nararamdaman."

"Ganun yun ano kaba, akala mo lang na gusto mo sya pero ang totoo nagustohan mo lang yung ginagawa nya, ang sarap kaya ng may admirer."

Napahawak ako sa sintido ko at biglang may naalala

'I-I'm sorry... It's my fault baby, I'm so sorry.'

Patricia's image while crying pop up in my mind

Jeez pati ba naman panaginip naaalala

"Oh 8am na tryout nanamin sa volleyball." Aliah said and get up

It's Saturday and I have a swimming practice today, dapat nga kanina pako nasa pool pero wala talaga akong gana

Ano ba toh

hindi naman ako ganito dati ah

bakit ang sama sama ng loob ko?

dahil ba si Marissa lang ang nakikita ko sa dorm? pero si Patricia hindi, wala na atang balak tumira sa dorm nya.

ang gago ko kasi eh, hinubaran ko ba naman, malamang natakot na yun hays...

Nang makaalis si Aliah ay inihubad ko na ang pants at shirt ko revealing my swimming attire at sumuot na ng bathrobe

Maybe I just need some relax time, the water might help me

"Okay, wait me here okay? just take a break."

pagdating ko sa swimming pool area ay may apat na student nakong nakikita na nagpapractice

at isa dun si Patricia

"Hahaha sigurado sya ang unang matatalo sa competition, hindi naman pala marunong lumangoy tapos may lakas loob na sumali."

The woman near me said while talking to the other participant

"Baka nga hindi pa sya nakakaabot sa gitna nalunod na sya hahah." sagot ng kausap nito

I frowned and look at Patricia

Tulala lang itong nakatingin sa pool at ang pula na ng ilong

she's sitting on the chair and not even cover herself
