Confused
"Here comes Jersey number 10, Valerio, sprinting down the court! Moving so fast, dodging the defense!" The announcer exitedly stated.
Valerio makes a swift move, faking out one defender and pushing past another. The crowd grows louder, sensing a shot attempt from him.
The court is getting louder as Valerio reaches the three-point line, stops abruptly, and sets his stance then he jumps, releasing the ball with a perfect arc.
"He goes for the shot...it's up in the air!" the announcer says.
The time seems to slow as everyone watches the ball. It sails towards the hoop and...swish! The ball goes in cleanly.
The crowd gets louder as he shoots the ball making a big dunk then he smiles as he looked at me an even give me a fucking wink! This guy is truly a pain in my ass. Binigyan ko lang siya ng Kunot-noong tingin pagka-tapos ay nag-simula na akong mag-lakad paalis ng court.
"Nothing but net! What an incredible run and shot—right from the three-point line!" I heard the announcer stated before I totally left the court.
He's Blake Adrian Valerio, the guy who always finds his ways to annoy me. Hindi ko alam bat niya yun ginagawa, he's like a kid na nakawala sa sinapupunan ng mama niya. We are already in college but he's acting like a kid from kindergarten.
It sometimes feels off but sometimes it feels right..
"Why are you following me, rian?" I stopped walking when I heard footsteps at my back. Humarap ako para makita ang mukha niya, I'm not surprised who it was.
"Hindi ah!" aniya. Pinanliitan ko ito ng tingin at tinaasan niya rin ako ng kilay. This guy!
"Oh ang aga-aga naka-simagot ka nanaman?" biglang sumulpot si Axel habang nagla-lakad kasama si Xavier na naka-akbay sakanya. Kung hindi ko lang sila kaibigan pagka-kamalan ko na silang mag-nobyo.
"What do you need?" Binalik ko ang tingin kay rian na ngayon ay naka-ngiti na, he's happy when I'm annoyed.
"Wala naman... kailangan bang may kailangan sayo para i-approach ka? diba axel?" Rian said habang nakatingin kay axel, naghintay pa nga ng back up.
Sinimangutan ko nalang ito at umiwas ng tingin. Tsk, Adrian and his ways to annoy me.
"Did you eat already, Axel?" Tanong ko kay axel na naka-ngiti sa naka-akbay na si Xavier. Kumpara sa aming tatlo, Axel is small. He's 5'9 while Xavier, Rian, and I are 6'1.
Kung ikukumpara ang body build namin, ako talaga yung pinaka-malaki.
Adrian has this effortlessly sexy vibe about him—lean, toned, and just the right amount of muscle in all the right places.
Axel has this long, slender build, almost like a dancer.His body language is composed, even a bit mysterious, and that lean frame of his somehow makes him look taller than he actually is.
Xavier is tall and well-built, but he carries it in this effortless way. He’s not bulky—more of a natural athletic build, like someone who could probably be a runner or swimmer.
While I have a naturally strong build, broad-shouldered with arms that hint at strength without being bulky.
"Hindi pa, kuya" tinanguan ko lang ito at akmang aalis na pero binalik ko ang tingin ng tawagin ako ni axel. "Kuya! There's a new coffee shop na malapit dito sa univ. Sasama ka ba? Pupunta kasi kami ni Xavier tapos isasaman na din namin si Rian" aniya. Agad namang bumaling ang tingin ko kay Adrian na nasa tabi niya, ti-na-taas baba nito ang kilay niya saakin. Convincing me to go with them.
"Fine, I'll go with you guys." I answered. Axel knows how I love coffe kaya siguro nag-offer siya. We're twins but I'm two minutes der than him that's why he's calling me kuya.
We arrived at the coffee shop that Axel was talking about, It has a cozy, inviting atmosphere, with warm lights casting a soft glow over the space. Naririnig ko rin ang bulungan ng mga customers as soon as we step inside.
We sat at the wooden chairs and table on the left side of the coffee shop. Magkatabi si Axel at Xavier while Adrian is beside me. Nag-order na kami, Xavier and Axel ordered the same flavor of milk tea, I don't know what it is since I'm not into milk tea's. While I ordered Iced Americano and Adrian ordered Matcha flavored milk tea. He's still the same, no doubt.
Naramdaman ko ang tingin ni Adrian saakin kaya tiningnan ko din siya. "What?" I asked him raising a brow. "Wala lang"aniya sabay irap saakin at sumipsip sa inumin. I smiled when I saw his cheeks, lumulubo ito dahil sa boba na nginunguya niya. Cute. What? Anong iniisip mo Elias?!
Uh oh, I'm falling in love
Oh no, I'm falling in love again
Oh, I'm falling in love
Sabay tugtug ng chorus ng kanta na pinapatugtug sa loob ng coffe shop. Lintek!It's Labyrinth by Taylor Swift.
