Love
Isang salita, apat na letra, ngunit bakit tila naging malaki ang epekto nito sa akin noon?
I have always been fascinated of how those four letter words manage to manipulate the human race, but it never occurred to me how such a small quantity of letters can change someone's life in just a matter of seconds--until I met him.
It happened unexpectedly, to unexpected person.
Kasalanan itong lahat ni Mr. Kupido. Pointing his arrow at the wrong direction and hitting the wrong person was probably the stupidest thing he had ever done in his entire life of match-making.
Bakit kay Jiro Santillan pa? E gago ‘yun!
I can’t deny the fact that at some point of our teenage life we tend to be immature and stupid. But boy..was he abusing the privilege? I don’t know.
I let out a heavy sigh and looked outside the window.
It has been five years since Jiro and I had our first real encounter.
Madalas kasi iniirapan ko lang siya kapag nagkakatagpo kaming dalawa sa hallways ng eskwelahan o kahit dun mismo sa subdivision na tinitirhan naming dalawa--na susuklian niya naman agad ng nakakalokong ngiti.
It was a smile coated with abomination from a devil's lips.
Yes, isa po siyang demonyo na gumapang mula sa kaibuturan ng lupa para guluhin ang nanahimik kong kaluluwa. Hindi man literal, pero parang ganun na rin.
Ewan ko nga ba. Pinaglaruan yata ako ng mga panahong ‘yon.
Wala namang espesyal sa kanya, but for whatever reason, I felt something weird on that particular day.
It wasn't magical. No. That's just too cheesy! It was--a complete disaster.
For my heart could not accept the fact that I, have found myself falling...
...falling deeply in love...
with him.
"Rayah!"
Napalingon ako when I heard Lara's voice calling me. Kumaway ako bago nagmadaling lumapit dahil ako na lang yata ang hinihintay nila.
Hindi ko namalayan ang paparating na sasakyan. Kumawala ang matinis na sigaw sa bibig ko nang biglang may bumusina kasunod ang magaspang na tunog ng preno mula sa aking likuran. Potek! Sa sobrang gulat ko, nabitawan ko tuloy ang mga librong gagamitin ko sana sa lintik na reaserch paper namin. Gago ‘to ah!
