I'm In Love With Mr.Professor

Chapter 37: Missing You

Magse-celebrate kami ng birthday ni Hansel ngayon kaya nandito kami ngayon sa buffet restaurant kasama ang mag-asawang Wellington.

"So Haizel, right?" Tanong nung Amerikanong asawa ni Clo. Tumango ako habang nakangiti.

"Nice to meet you, and you are?" Nagshake hands kami pagkatapos ay tinanong niya si Kathy.

"Katherine, Haizey's best friend."

"Oh. Nice to meet you. Harvey Wellington." Tapos nagshake hands din sila. Yung dalawang bata? Ayun. Pinagpiyestahan ang buffet.

"Clo keeps on telling stories about you guys-"

"Is it bad or not?" Pagpuputol ni Kathy sa sinasabi ni Harvey. Natawa naman si Harvey.

"For you, Katherine.... I think it's a bit embarrassing. Clo said, you're really a loud person and you eat a lot. Or I think, more than a lot." Tapos tumawa na naman. Sinamaan ng tingin ni Kathy si Clo na halos humandusay na sa sahig kakatawa. Ay oa.

"Did you just embarrassed me to your husband, Clo?"

"HAHAHA! Partly."

"YOU CALL THAT PARTLY?!"

"HAHAHA! I was just telling the truth." Tapos ngumuso si Kathy.

Hay nako.

"Anyway, this will be my treat." Sabi ni Harvey kaya napailing agad ako.

"No, it's my brother's birthday so I should be the one paying these."

"No, it's okay. Besides, you're still studying." Kumunot ang noo ko.

Ano ngayon kung nag-aaral pa ako? Pinaparating ba niya na porque nag-aaral ako, hindi ko afford tong ganitong buffet restaurant? Aba! Thousand dollars ang nasa bulsa ko lagi!

"No, I can pay for it." Mabait sana si Harvey pero medyo nakakainsulto.

"Ok, fine. Well, let's eat?" Tumango na lang ako. Nababadtrip na naman ako -.-

Ilang minuto lang ang lumipas ay napunta na sa akin ang usapan.

"Why don't you go to nightclubs, Haizel?" Tanong ni Harvey. Bakit kaya nagustuhan ni Clo tong lalaking to?

"Nah... as you said earlier, I'm still studying. And I don't drink."

"Oh! Then, do whatever you want." Tumango na lang ako. Wala ako sa mood, fre. Nawawala na talaga mood ko.

*after 1 hour that seems like years*

Pinahatid ko na kay Clo sina Hansel, Kathy at Cassey sa apartment. Pupunta pa kasi ako sa isang cafe kung saan kami magmi-meet ng isang Austria.

Honestly, nami-miss ko na talaga si Bryan. Yung kakulitan ng batang yun....

I'm sure magagalit sya kapag nalaman niyang tinawag ko siyang bata ^_^

About Cameron, I'm still moving on. I don't want to go to bars and waste my nights. I'm not a fuckgirl though..

Nang makarating ako sa cafe nakita ko na si Charlie and I think, he's with his Dad. Ano ngang pangalan nun? Steven?

"Ms.Haizel Anderson!" Bati sa akin ng tatay ni Charlie.

"Mr.Austria, pleased to meet you." Sagot ko sabay shake hands. Pinaupo nila ako sa harap at pinabasa sa akin ang isang form.

Habang binabasa iyon, I'm getting flattered. Am I really intelligent to deserve this?

Pero dito sa International Harvard University na ito, I need to focus on my studies. Sa pinakahuli kasi na form may nakalagay na 'lazy students not allowed, Godbless'

Feeling ko nga si Charlie lang ang gumawa ng form na to eh. Hindi kasi masyado formal. Tinignan ko si Mr.Austria, ngumiti naman siya sa akin.

"Where would I sign?" Mas lumawak pa ang ngiti niya nang sabihin ko iyon. Yes, I accept their offer. Gaga na lang siguro ang hindi tatanggap dito.

After I signed the form, well it isn't really a contract so I should name it as a form, Mr.Steven Austria excused himself for an emergency that's why I'm left with Charlie.

Napagkaalaman ko na 3 years ang tanda niya sa akin. So technically, magkasing tanda lang sila halos ni Cam.

Ugh! Bakit ko ba sya naaalala sa lahat?

"You know Bryan, right?" Tumango naman ako.

"Well, he's asking me if I can find Ms. Anderson and Ms. Nieto." Nanlaki ang mga mata ko nang sabihin niya iyon. I was about to open my mouth when he continued speaking.

"Should I tell him that I saw you? Or.... not? I think you guys have a little argument?"

"Yeah... it's because of his brother. Well, I know you know what happened."

"What happened?" He innocently asked kaya nanlaki ang mga mata ko.

"You didn't know?!"

"Know what?" Napahawak ako sa sentido ko. Should I tell him? I think that's private? Waaahh!! I don't know what to do!

I was about to open my mouth when his phone rang.

"Oh! Cam's calling. By the way, do you know him?" Shit! Tumibok na naman ang puso ko. I just... shrugged.

I don't know what to say. Tumango siya then he excused himself.

Tinignan ko ang phone ko at saka binuksan. Picture namin ni Hansel ang lockscreen ko.

Nagulat ako nang biglang namatay ang phone ko at ayaw na bumukas. Kumunot ang noo ko at saka inalis ang phonecase ko. Nagulat na lang ako nang biglang may nahulog. Pinulot ko iyon at nalaglag ang panga ko at tumibok ng mabilis ang puso ko.

Picture namin ni Cameron nung nagtimezone kami dati.

"I want to keep you... but I shouldn't." Sabi ko sa isip ko. I was about to crumple it when someone stopped me.

"Before doing something, make sure you won't regret it." Tinignan ko siya and I saw Charlie. I gulped. Shit!

"I won't ask anything. Just make sure you won't regret that." Nakahinga ako ng maluwag nang sabihin niya iyon. Ngumiti ako ng malungkot at saka itinago ang picture sa bag ko.

I think I'm not yet ready to let him go.

"Anyway, I'll drive you home. Come on." Tapos tumango ako at hinatid na niya ako sa bahay.

Honestly, I miss him so damn much.
