I have a new friend, his name is Chase Ortega, he IS the most talked about guy in our school, he is every girls dream boy.
" Chase may naghahanap sayo dude!" Sigaw ng kaklase namen kay Chase na natutulog at nakasubsob ang mukha sa desk he slowly looked up and sigh. " who?" He asked as he yawned and stretched his arms at sa pag-unat nya ay napalingon sya sa direksyon ko , he winked... What?. Then he stood up to walk to his friends.
"Ang ganda pa naman ng panaginip ko mga kupal!" Biro nya saka mahinang binatukan ang mga kaibigan, then he went close to the door para makita kung sinong humahanap sa kanya. I heard a girl voice. Admirer?.
Hindi ko nalang pinansin pa ang ibang pangyayare baket ba nakasunod lang ang tingin ko sa kanya? Maybe kase sa higit isang linggo mula nung makipagkaibigan sya ay hindi naman talaga nya ako kinakausap minsan tuloy naiisip kong baka napagtripan nya lang ako dahil bored sya non..thats kinda rude right?, but then again I dont want to assume baka busy lang sya? Or nahihiya syang makita ng iba na kinakausap nya ako?. Those thoughts made me sad. Sana real friendship ang gusto nya alam kong nasabe ko nang sanay na akong magisa but then mas masaya kung may kaibigan right? Every main character on every book im reading has their bffs be it a boy or a girl.
Lumipas pa ang ilang araw and nothing changed. Just as I thought he is just bored that time thats why he asked to be my friend , well its good while it lasted though its too short and I dont think na may naubo ngang pagkakaibigan.
Nang matapos na ang last subject ay naisipan kong maglinis ng classroom. Ewan ko ba sa mga on duty para sa araw na to na iwan ang room na napakaklat. Nagsimula akong burahin ang nasa pisara, math equations gives students headaches but its a good stress reliever for me solving them makes me think of nothing morethan numbers, sunod naman ay ang pagwawalis ng sahig, the floor is just dusty pero wala naman masyadong kalat, inayos ko ang arrangement ng mga upuan , now I can see vandals on each tables that im fixing kung ano-ano ang nakasulat then when I arrived at Chase's seat all I can see were scribbles of hearts and the words " i love you Chase " ang sikat nya talaga, I wonder if every girl in this class had already writen their feelings of admiration towards Chase?.. punong puno na ata ng vandal ang pwesto nya nagbasa pa ako ng mga sulat na nakaukit doon yung iba sulat ballpen yung iba pentel pen.
"Eherm" Muntikan na akong mapatalon ng makadinig ako ng pagtikhim mula sa likod ko. " is my seat that comfortable?" He smiled while walking to the seat infront of me hindi ko napansing nakaupo na pala ako sa upuan nya, damn!
"Why are you here?" Tanong nya agad saken. I just shrugged then pointed at the broom im using for sweeping the floor. He laughed.
"On duty? " tanong nya. Umiling agad ako. " I had free time saka tinatamad pa ko umuwi. Wala naman dito yung mga cleaners kaya ako na ang nagkusa." Sagot ko, he made an "O" mouth then slowly clapped di ko alam kung nang-aasar lang sya e.
"E ikaw? Kanina ka pa dapat wala dito ah? May nalimutan ka nanaman ba?" I asked coldly bigla ko kaseng naalala na hindi naman nya ako kinakausap maliban kung dalawa nalang kame. Maybe he doesn't want to be my friend.
"Tumakas ako sandali sa praktis ng team. I feel exhausted after everyday's practice. Babalik din ako .." he answered I just nodded. " teka why so cold?" Bigla nyang tanong tinaasan ko sya ng kilay at nginitian.
" no im not. Naisip ko lang.. do you really want to be my friend?" Sagot ko. He arched his brows at matagal na nag-isip.
" oo naman. Baket?" He answered with his tense gaze. Tignan mo suspicious ang lalakeng to. " wala lang. Hindi mo kase ako kinakausap sa klase. I just thought that you dont like m--"
" I LIKE YOU!" agad nyang pagputol, nanlaki pa ang mata ko sa gulat. "I mean! A-as a friend! I like you thats why I asked you to be friends with me. " dagdag nya. Wow that was intense.
" a- anyway! Kung nararamdaman mong hindi kita pinapansin during school hours that's not because I dont like you.. its because other guys might notice you too.." pahina ng pahina nyang sabe. Bumubulong nanaman sya. He always do that when talking to me.
"Aahh..ok?" Sagot ko saka ibinalik ang atensyon sa table nya.
" oh that..." bigla nyang untag ng mapansin nyang nakatingin ako sa desk nya.
" im reading this declarations of love for you. Sikat ka pala talaga no?" I said while still reading on those vandals , pfft I'll marry you Mr Ortega? Weird love letters.
" stop reading those." He said sabay takip sa table nya he puts his hands on his desk saka nagsalongbaba " I dont take this letters seriously . " natatawa nyang sabe, hinawi ko ang kamay nyang nakaharang.
"But atleast appreciate ?" I said then smiled , he arched his brows then pouted.
" tss. Yung letter ko nga gusto mong itapon eh "
"Ha?" I asked , ang hilig nyang bumulong . He smiled saka umiling. " of course I appreciate these! Araw-araw nadadagdagan yan. Sana magsulat din dyan yung gusto kong mapansin ako." He laughed after saying those. Hmm?
" oh.. maybe you like someone??" Bigla kong tanong. Nanlaki naman agad ang mata nya saka pilit na ngumiti.
"Maybe?" He smirked saka sinubsob ang mukha sa mesa. Baket maybe? Pwede bang maybe?? " if that person wrote something sweet to make me feel better after every baseball practice or encourage me to do my best in my pitching maybe I'll be super happy!" he added. Ohhh .
" why dont you ask her?" I suggested. He then looked up and stared at me for quite a while then let out a deep sigh. " should I?" He asked. Teka is he scared to approach this girl??. " wait" Bigla kong sabe sala tumayo at kumuha ng pentelpen sa bag ko. Mukha naman syang naguguluhan at sinundan lang ako ng tingin.
" maybe you dont have the courage to approach that girl but.." As I said those words ay isinulat ko sa desk nya ang mga katagang " You Can Do It. " He looked shocked then his face turned red.
" as your friend. I wish you luck ! I hope you can find the courage to tell her what you feel. Maybe its a bit corny but--"
"CRAP!" he cussed saka ginulo ang buhok. Is he mad?!! " t- teka sorry kung--"
" hinde. Teka lang..." he said while gasping for air, teka anong nangyayare sa taong to?!! "Chase?" I asked he just took the pentel pen on my hand then pulled my hand he wrote something on my hand then he quickly stood up then naglakad na papuntang pinto.
" I suddenly feel energized! , sabay na kita pababa bago ako bumalik sa praktis." he said , oo nga pala ! Nagmadali na akong kunin ang bag ko at sabay nanaman kameng bumaba ng building . He doesn't say any word hanggang sa magkahiwalay na kame ng daan.
Pag uwi ko sa bahay ay agad akong napahiga sa kama , itinaas ko ang kanang palad ko at tinignan ang isinulat ni Chase.
[Thanks <3 ]
I let out a chukle then closed my hand. Does every girl in school knows that this cool Guy is actually a cutie?.
Wait what?. .
