Serendipity - something good that happens during a bad situation
I feel so stupid right now. Worrying for a guy who doesn't give a fuck about me? Wow, that's new.
I heard cheers not far from where I'm standing, specifically coming from our gymnasium.
Damn, I really hope they'll win.
I was too tempted to go there and watch the game but nah, it's too hot in there, plus nothing will change if I go there and watch the game. Baka last three minutes nalang din naman siguro.
As I was overthinking, a crap added to my list of embarrassing moments when I suddenly tripped over something and fell on the ground, butt first.
I cursed under my breath. Oh I'm such an unlucky bitch, huh?
I felt a hand on my arm as I was trying to stand.
"Okay ka lang? Tulungan na kita."
Feeling ko maiiyak ako ng wala sa oras, not because someone saw my katangahan, nor someone helped me, but because of the pain I feel right now.
I never expected any help from this man in front of me. Akala ko kasi unreachable sya, well, he is when it comes to having him as a boyfriend or suitor or whatsoever, but I never thought he cares about people whom he doesn't know.
Tinulungan niya akong makaupo sa pinakamalapit na bench and I said thank you. He nodded and smiled, he's really cute. But I didn't feel the butterflies.
"Hindi ka pa aalis?"
He sat beside me kasi. He shook his head and told me na may hinihintay daw sya so he asked me if he could sit with me and of course I said yes. Sino ba naman ako para humindi sa taong tumulong sakin di ba? Ang rude ko naman pag ganun.
"Bakit ka nga pala nandito?"
Napakunot yung noo ko sa tanong niya. "Bawal ba akong tumambay sa school kung saan ako nag-aaral?"
Natawa sya saglit sa sinabi ko. Ang babaw naman ng kaligayahan niya.
"What I mean is, bakit ka nandito sa labas? Di ba dapat nandun ka sa loob at sinusuportahan mo yung boyfriend mo?"
"Boyfriend?"
This time, sya naman yung nakakunot ang noo. "Di ba boyfriend mo yung varsity? Classmate ko nga yun eh. Si Steven?"
