Hidden Hearts and Summer Skies (Silent Secrets of Summer #1)

Chapter 13

First day of our long week examination I planned to go to school early than my schedule to read some books at the library to atleast refresh my memory.

Taking down notes is also a life saver for me as it was mainly the questions that will be included to our exams, but some added informations won't be so bad.

My mom made me some sandwiches for light breakfast since maaga pa nga ay umalis na ako ng bahay, what I also loved about going to school early is that it's not crowded.

Since nakain ko na ang isa sa sandwiches na baon ko pumasok na agad ako sa library to borrow some books na need ko for this day, at agad na rin naghanap ng mauupuan na malayo sa distraction, I set my alarm and turn on only the vibration and started to review.

20 mins after and then I turn off my alarm since hindi ko na inubos ang natitirang 5 mins, agad na akong nag-ayos ng gamit at nagtungo na sa room kung saan ang first exam ko.

Buti nalang talaga at nagreview ako dahil narefresh ang utak ko kung hindi baka umiyak nalang ako dun sa mga tanong sa exams na hindi pa namin naaaral, buti nalang din naisipan kong mag advance reading at take down notes kahit yung mga hindi pa nata-topic.

After a good 1 and half hour of exam on my first subject agad na akong bumaba para sa 2nd subject ko, after this one may 2 hours vacant ako and then 1 hour for lunch break.

Dahil maaga pa nang makakaba ako since 2 hours dapat ang first subject ko, I was able to get another 20 minutes to review for the next subject.

Naging madali naman sa'kin ang 2nd subject dahil halos lahat ay natopic namin, though questions are situational and logical, I was still able easily answered it. After magpaalam sa prof namin ay agad na akong bumaba para maghanap ng pwedeng kainan.

Pumunta muna ako sa parking lot at iniwan sa kotse ang mga gamit ko para hindi marami ang hawak ko. There's a lot of stall that sell a variety of foods around campus kaso parang wala doon ang gusto kong kainin. Hindi rin naman pwedeng hindi ako kumain ng meal with rice since sandwich lang kinain ko kanina.

I was still walking around, still looking for something I could eat when suddenly a hand covered my eyes, napahinto ako sa lakad ko. Suddenly my senses was halt, I flinched when the person who covered my eyes whisper on my ears. Parang hingal na hingal pa siya.

"Are you lost?" When he asked me that, he also removed his hands on my eyes, my eyesight slowly adjust to the brightness of the sorroundings, when I turned to my right, I saw Jiro smiling so sweetly, para bang mas maliwanag pa ang ngiti niya kesa sa araw.

I was stunned, then there it was, my pulse. It gets faster, I can also hear it on my ears. I feel like everything slow down when his smiling face registered on my mind. 'Tang ina Haven!'

"Hey," I felt his point finger touch my forehead and chuckle, I turn to my left and chuckle, I was looking at everything than him, iniiwas ang tingin sakaniya, 'tang ina Haven nakakahiya kana!'

"H-hey... why are you here? Tapos na kayo magexam?" He lightly pat my head and nodded, then there it was, he smiled again.

"Yes. Have you eaten already? Would you mind if I ask you out for lunch?" He asked, eyes sparkling with anticipation.

"No, not at all." Para namang nanalo siya sa lotto ng bigla niyang pagsaklubin ang dalawang kamay niya na parang nagdadasal.

Man, I don't know anymore what am I gonna do with this foreign feeling everytime Jiro is around, am I really having a crush with him? I mean a little crush won't be so bad right? But what if- No! Haven stop thinking about that, baka nga overwhelmed ka lang kapag magkasama kayo eh, 'let's not overthink things okay?' Ano nalang talaga ang ihaharap kong mukha kapag nalaman niya na I am having this little crush on him.
