*flashbacks*
“You look more beautiful, tonight” he sounds mesmerized. gentle_man4u? Him? He’s… I don’t know!!!
“Tha-thanks!”
It makes my heart beats this fast. Ano bang meron siya that makes me so nervous like this? Sa kanya lang ako nagkaka-ganito. Nawawala ang pagka-man-hater ko when I talk to him.
Now, in person, mas matindi. I feel like hindi ako si Kyle, that I’m Kyla Claine.
As he took my hand for dance kahit hindi ako marunong, ewan ko ba I feel floating na. I would love to dance the whole night kahit wala naman akong skills.
But… eventually. Time passes. As the music broke, kailangan ko nang bumalik for the announcement.
“We need to get inside” I said.
“I think so. Mauna ka na.” We stopped. He’s right, baka kung anong isipin ng iba kapag nakita nila kami together.
“Ok thanks!” I returned his coat and said “Thanks” again and off.
*end of flashbacks*
Ang ingay na naman. Ibang-iba yung atmosphere a while ago. WAIT? Nakalimutan kong itanong ang real name niya… even his real image.
Nevermind. Ano ka ba naman Kyle?!?!? He is a guy at baka magkamali ka lang. Nagpapaka-bobo ka!!! I keep hitting my head.
“Hoy! Kyle. What are you doing?” si Cloeh pala.
“Ouch…” late reaction naman ako. “Bakit?”
She shrugged. “Nevermind. Dali ka sa stage kanina ka pa hihanap ni Spence eh” oh right, the awarding.
Nagpunta na ako agad sa back stage.
There’s Spence looking at his wrist watch. “Hey!” I called.
“Kyle! Kanina ka pa namin hinahanap. Saan ka ba kanina?” sermon niya.
“I’m here now”
“Nevermind! Let’s go.” And on stage na kami.
He does the talking. Ayoko kasi nang mahabang speech so I’m with the winners announcing nalang. Ito ang main part ng event, winners ng “Mr. and Ms. Perfect” for tonight.
They’re photos will be published in the school magazine. Ganito katindi ang campus activities, colored magazines instead of newspapers para maiba naman. So let’s see…
“For Mr. Perfect… let’s call on ‘Mr. in’…” the spotlight was focused on a guy in the crowd and immediately up the stage. He took off his mask… “Stephen” I mumbled. “Stephen Trosaylez, the ‘Mr. Perfect’ for tonight. Let’s give him a round of applause.”
He gave a smile “Thanks!” he said his thank you-message and lent back the microphone to me. “You look prettier tonight” he whispered before he went on the side. It made me blush.
“Next, let’s call on…” the spotlight again and… “Let’s give her around of applause…”
The night finally ends. Pabalik na kami ng parking lot ni Cloeh with Josh. When someone appeared, si Bryan.
“Want to take some coffee?” he asked.
“Hmm… I think we need to” I glared at Cloeh.
“Nope. I need some rest na eh more than for coffee.” She refused.
“I want to –” Josh spoke but…
Cloeh stopped him “Ihahatid mo ako diba?!!” she emphasized.
“So we can’t pala” I said.
“No, you come with him nalang.” Cloeh slightly dig on me. “Minsan lang kayo ulit mag-bonding eh”
“She’s right!” Bryan agreed. “So? I insist.”
“Sige na nga” and we went on.
Pumunta na kami sa car niya.
Syempre personal driver niya ang mag-dadrive. We sat in the back seat.
Tahimik mode…
Medyo inaatok na rin ako that I didn’t know na nakatulog na pala ako.
“Promise! I said I’ll promise!” I shouted
“Kyle? Kyle??” I heard someone and made me woke up. “Kyle you’re dreaming.”
“Bryan? Where are we?” I asked. Panaginip na naman.
We went out the car. Starbucks pala kami. Oo nga pala favorite place for coffees.
“Ano bang panaginip mo?” he asked habang papasok kami ng shop.
“Ah wala… nalimutan ko na.” I denied.
Nasa starbucks na nga kami. I can smell the pleasant scent ng coffees and chocos. Parang gusto ko nang uminom to waken my spirit on.
