Chasing You And Your Paths

CHAPTER 4

Ano tong narinig ko? did he called me by my first name?? iniinis nya ba ako o nangiinis talaga sya?, kasi na kakainis.

Hindi ko alam pero nakakainis talaga kapag tinatawag ako sa unang pangalang yun, bumabalik lang sa'kin lahat ng nalaman ko tungkol sa kanya. To my mom na simula ng inilabas ako sa sinapupunan nya ay hindi ko na nasilayan pa ang hitsuta ng mukha nya. My dad told me that my mom regret because she born me actually she is the one who set my name which is Mayvel kaya simula nun I do prefer to be called Celine to forget her, sabi din ni dad na iniwan sya ni mommy pagkatapos akong isilang. I do hate her, kung pinagsisisihan nya na ipinanganak nya ako bakit nya pa ako isinilang sana pina abort nya na lang ako para wala na syang problema. Maybe because of me so mom and dad goes separated to each other, I feel a little bit guilt, because if I didn't get born maybe mom and dad is happily together.

"Are you okay?" James asked

Hindi agad ako nakaimik katahimikan ang bumalot sa aming dalawa, ngayon ko lang napansin na may tumutulo na palang luha sa aking mga mata.

"Mayvel? hey?!, why are you crying did I say something that made you cry?" James asked in the second time. Hindi parin ako umibo ngunit daretsyong nakatingin ang aking mga matang lumuluha sa kanyang mga mata na alalang nakatingin sa'kin.

"Here, wipe your tears" he offered me a handkerchief but I didn't take it "Then let me wipe your tea-" tinabig ko ang kamay nya dahilan para magulat sya.

"Hey?"

I stand up and I about to walk but he hold my wrist, dahilan para tumigil ako. Pero kaagad kung tinabig ang pagkakahawak nya, lalapit pa sana sya sa'kin but her toe was trap under the table that made all the foods slid on me. It's obvious to he's face that he's shocked to what happened.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to do that let me hel-" I didn't wait him to end his words instead I started walking. I heard that he's shouting something but I ignored him.

I went to the rest room to clean this mess with my uniform but I think hindi to matatanggal sa basa basa lang. Maybe I should wait for lunch break so I can changed my uniform in our house, two subjects na lang naman, so then? papasok ako sa room with this dirty shirt? I guess yes wala na naman ibang paraan diba?.

Lumabas na ako sa cr to go back in my room, but as I didn't expect I saw him again!!, Nakasandal sya sa pader na tila may hinihintay habang may kapit na paper bag sa kamay nya. Babalik na sana ako sa loob pero he already saw me. Iniabot nya sa'kin yung hawak hawak nyang paper bag, kinuha ko naman iyon ng walang binibitawang salita, ng makuha ko na kaagad kung sinilip ang laman non, uniform?

"Para saan to?" I asked him

"It's for the mess I did with your uniform, sorry" he said, I nodded. Papasok na sana ako sa loob para magpalit pero bigla syang nagsalita dahilan para matigilan ako.

"Wait, tell me what's the matter?" he asked me

"Hah?" I asked too

"Tell me what's the matter" he repeated

"Matter is anything that occupied space and has mass" I said and smiled, nakita kung napahampas sya sa kanyang noo, hindi ko na hinintay pa ang nais nyang sabihin bagkos ay pumasok na ako sa loob ng cr para magpalit.

Pagkatapos na pagkatapos kung magbihis kaagad na akong lumabas ng banyo, nakita kung naghihintay parin si James same position earlier nakasandal padin sya sa pader. Napansin nyang lumabas na ako kaya naman kaagad syang humarap sa'kin.

"The uniform I buy suits you very much" he said

"Hah? eh parihas lang naman to nang suot ko kanina?" I asked
