BEHIND THE CROWD

CHAPTER 5

I was totally annoyed right now. I was at my condo, kadarating ko lang and he was true to his words as he drove me here which is not to be thankful for dahil wala rin namang naging kabuluhan ang pag stay ko sa school dahil ang loko, wala naman palang gustong sabihin.

Earlier, I never leave the place where he left me at gustuhin ko mang wag siyang pansinin ay hindi ko magawa dahil pinalaki yata siya ng magulang niyang maging bida-bida. My initial plan to just check my phone during their training never happens because I always feel his gaze which is somehow distracting . Kaya wala rin akong ginawa kundi panoorin ang practice nila while continuously rolling my eyes whenever our eyes met.

Inis akong tumitig sa kisame ng kwarto at mariing tinuon ang pansin sa wall clock ko, napailing ako. Pinaghintay ako sa wala ng lalaking yon. Kung hindi lang siya nagdrama na parang ewan kanina ay maaga na akong nakapagpahinga. Hindi ko alam kung anong pumasok sa utak ng lalaking iyon gayong ang tagal na naming walang pakialaman bigla-bigla nalang gaganyan.

Naalala ko na naman kung paano akong napatahimik ng lalaking yun kanina, wala sa sariling napahawak ako sa aking noo na hanggang ngayon alam kong ramdam ko pa rin at kahit anong tanggi ng utak ko ay alam kong napagaan ng halik sa noo na iyon. I sighed on what's happening on me.

"Your girlfriend, your ass... tsss" padabog akong bumangon sa aking kama upang makapaghanda ng makakain.

I literally went immediately here in my bedroom pagkarating na pagkarating ko dahil sa pagod, nawalan ako ng lakas sa pangyayari kanina. Mas napagod pa ako sa lalaking yon kaysa sa training namin.

I went to my kitchen after I take a bath, I needed that one to refresh my mind. I was planning to prepare a sandwich, sa oras na ito ay hindi ko na makakayang gumawa pa ng mas maayos na pagkain.

It was already 9 pm and I needed to sleep early dahil may training pa ulit kami bukas, as I remember may tune-up game daw which will be held at our school ang hindi ko lang alam ay kung sinong makakalaban namin, last training na iyon dahil later that night ang game namin.

I was about to open my fridge to look for ingredients to make my sandwich when suddenly my phone vibrated. Nung una ay hindi ko pa iyon pinansin dahil sa gutom ko but it vibrated again kaya wala na akong nagawa kung hindi tingnan. When I opened it, it was a texts from a random person as it was not registered on my phone.

From: +639944674384

I'm home.

I raised a brow as I read the first one, I have a person in mind but it was impossible for him to know my number. I read the next one.

From: +639944674384

Don't sleep yet.

I was confused kaya di ko na napigilang mag-reply.

To: +639944674384

Who are you?

Wala pang isang segundo kong nabibitang ang phone ko ay kaagad itong nagreply.

From: +639944674384

I'm harmless.

Napailing ako sa reply niya, niloloko yata ako nito.

To: +639944674384

I don't know anyone who named Harmless.
