Chapter Four- Ako Dapat Yun eh
(Unedited)
***"Miguelito! Wait for me nga!" I said as I'm trying to keep up with his long legs. He was just walking but i feel like i was catching him in a marathon.
Ayaw na ayaw mo talaga akong makita ha, pwes! I'm not a saint to grant you that...hindi kita tatantanan!
"Migo!" I called his name with a hint of frustrations. Nakakagigil kasi. Nang mahawakan ko na ang braso niya ay puwersahang pinahinto ko siya at don na siya tumingin sakin na halatang iritado.
His thick brows furrowed in irritation, and he bit his lip, clearly bothered by my actions.
"Kanina ka pa ah... Hindi mo talaga ako titigilan, Fallel?" May bahid pagka inis sa boses niya.
Yes, he's right. Kanina pa talaga ako, from his first class to his vacant class at maging sa last class niya ngayon, hindi ko talaga siya tinigilan. I entertained him, cooked for him which he didn't bother to look at it but still greatful dahil di nya tinapon. I also talked a lot and give him some funny jokes, na hindi naman niya ikinatuwa, pero the thought that's count di ba?
I straightened my stance and boldly met his fiery gaze. "Why should I stop?" I stated firmly. "I've told you, I want you back in my life. I'll fight against all odds to win you back. So please, slow down nga dahil I'm wearing heels here." I said with an unwavering conviction.
He pulled his arm from my touch and closed his eyes, seemingly irritated. He even massaged his temple and his nose, as if trying to relieve stress.
Hala ka, bakit mo ginalit, Jai? Dapat kinukuha mo ang loob niya, hindi nilalayo!
My expression shifted into a happy one. Dapat positive lang ako palagi para hindi siya ma bad vibes. "Tired ka na ba? You want to rest?" Concern kong tanong. Bumaba ang tingin ko sa laptop niya, "Want me to carry it for you, Migs? Akin na wala naman ang dala eh" i offered.
"You're so desperate, Fallel" He spoke in a cold, harsh voice.
I shrugged, totoo naman. "Yes, desperada na kaya akin na yan, ako na magdadala."
Kita ko ang pagbago ng expression niya, para bang ikinagulat niya ang sinabi ko... Like haler,Migo, you know me, I don't back out.
"Hindi ka ba nahihiya?" He asked me with the same mannerism of voice. Cold and harsh.
"Bakit naman?" I simply asked.
"You're a woman, and you're pathetically chasing after a man? Do you have any shred of dignity left?"
Natawa naman ako, ang pointless ng sinabi niya.
"Ano ka ba Miguelito Juharem? It's a different era now. We have evolved from the past, where men and women were held to different standards. If men can chase after someone they love, why can't women do the same? I believe in equality, so stop trying to hold me back. I refuse to be constrained by antiquated gender roles or stereotypes. At tsaka my pride? Tide lang ginagamit ni Jolly eh " Biniro ko pa siya sa dulo but all i have said is true.What men can do, women can also.I know he's just testing my patience and he wanted me to give up or feel embarrassed from what i am doing... Because the Migo I knew, wasn't the type of man that would look down on women. Pinalaki siya ni mama Felly na may respeto sa kababaihan.
He sighed in frustrations, "Fuck it, ang tigas ng ulo" he muttered against his breath. Nagpanggap nalang akong hindi narinig yun, hinihintay ko nalang ibigay niya ang laptop niya.
