When she forgets; When he regrets

Chapter Two

Paano daw ako ligawan?! HA?! Napaharap ulit ako sa kanya. I reconditioned myself. Baka kasi pakilig lang to e. Malay ko ba kung prank lang niya to. “Is this some kind of a joke?” I asked him seriously.

“Did you find it funny?” he asked me seriously.

I nod. “You make me laugh. Is this the time you’ll gonna say joke! joke! joke!?”

I keep myself laughing para naman hindi maging mukhang assuming ako noh. But, he held my hand, “Maybe it seems to be a joke but seriously, it’s no joke at all. I don’t know how to be serious, I’ve never been serious in my whole life, just now, just because of you.” He said while staring at my two eyes. I saw the seriousness in it. That’s why I can’t help myself but to be serious as well.

“Tatay kita. Anak mo ako. It’s a moral sin.” I try to take some joke. Masyado na kasing sumeseryoso e. Ang gatud ng dating kapag nakita mong seryoso yung taong hindi mo pa nakikitang nagseryoso. Alam nyo yung feeling na para kayong niloloko kahit seryoso siya? Yun yun!

He made a grin. “Baby kita, so, pwede bang maging baby mo din ako? Wala akong pakielam kahit moral sin pa yun. I can live in hell if it will be the consequence of having you.” He smirks at me again. “So, baby? Pwede ka bang ligawan?” he said.

HA?! HINDI KO GETS?! KAYO? GETS NYO?! AMBILIS E. REWIND PLEASE?!

“Seryoso ka?” yan ang tangi kong nasabi. Kinikilig ako but at the same time, there is still doubt in my heart.

He grabs my other hand and put it on his chest. I feel the beating of his heart. It’s to fast! “Just let me prove it to you.” I heard him say. Pero anong gagawin ko? Anong isasagot ko?

“How?” I just said with curiosity.

“Just let me be a part of your life.” after he had said that, hinatak niya ako pababa ng corridor namin. I don’t know where he will be taking me. Ang alam ko lang ay hawak niya ang kamay ko at mabilis ang tibok ng puso ko.

Alam niyo yung feeling na parang ang bagal ng pag-ikot ng mundo. Yung tipong ang bagal gumalaw ng mga tao sa paligid mo. Yun bang ikaw lang at siya ang nageexist. Ewan ko ba?! Ang bilis ng mga pangyayari e. yung kagabi lang e walang nagtetext sakin tapos isang joke lang na GM e nagsimula na yung lahat? AMBILIS. GRABEEEEEEE.

I just found myself na nakaupo sa isang cafeteria. Nandito yung mga classmates and friends ko. Ayun, mga iniintriga ako. Kung bakit daw kami magkasama ni Josh. Kung bakit daw hawak ni Josh ang kamay ko. Kung bakit daw kami lang dalawa. THEBUZZ?! Andameng intriga ahh.

Umupo si Josh sa harapan ko. He smiles at me na parang nanloloko. “Ano yan?” sabay turo sa lips nya.

“Eto?” hinawakan na yung lips nya sabay pout pa. I just nod at him. “Bakit gusto mo?” he teases me.

I roll my eyes at him. “ASA KA.”

“UYYYYYYYYYY. LQ agad?!” sigaw ni Nikko. ABA. Mga eavesdroppers tong mga to ahh. I feel the heat on my cheeks. Siguro mukhang kamatis na ko ngayon. KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. So, I decided to cover my cute face with my two cute palms. But, Josh grabs my two hands. “Bakit mo ba itinatago ang mukha mo?!” he almost shouted at me.

 Napakunot ang noo ko. Who he is to shout at me like that. “Bakit ba?!” I grab my hand back.

“Tinititigan ko kasi. Ang ganda e.” I don’t know what I’m feeling right now. Feel ko na namunula yung mukha ko. Hindi ko lang alam kung dahil sa hiya o sa kilig. So, I chose the latter. EHHHHHHHHHHHH!
