Chapter 4

Just for you

They say love could give you a thousand feelings where you can't explain what it was. Pero paano sa mga katulad ko? Yes, we all do admire people pero falling in love to a certain person is kinda unusual for me. I have no interest in men; I'm not saying that I'm a lesbian. Siguro kasi, hindi pa 'yon 'yong time para maghanap ako ng taong mamahalin ko.

They're just there, if we couldn't wait and force ourselves to have a relationship status then at the end, we just regretted our decision. Bakit kasi nagmamadali? May tao naman kasing nakalaan, bakit pa pinipilit ang sarili sa taong hindi naman nakatadhana sayo?

Then, Kord happen.

Ewan ko, bigla na lang. When our eyes met, kakaiba 'yong feeling. Parang may connection talaga na dapat noon pa nagkita? 'Yong ganon, Kord has some kind of appeal na hinahanap ko. I read books, and so many fictional characters I loved and so that sinasabi nilang tumataas ang standards ko pagdating sa lalaki dahil I always find a perfect man.

Is Kord suits for the perfect man I called? Hindi naman diba, but why I felt it?

Kord is some kind of a normal guy. Yes, you can see him everywhere, not literally but basically the way he was pero 'yon nga, there is something from him na kakaiba. He's the only guy I knew who made me like this. Nakakasar dahil from all the aspects, Kord can't get out of my mind. He's there, whenever I close my eyes. I always see his smile.

Gahd, Kord. Is it love?

I was going to a party at Jollibee, ayoko pa sana pero dahil busy ang parents ng pamangkin ko ay nakiusap muna sila sa akin na samahan ko iyon. Umiiyak daw kasi ito at gusto talagang pumunta kaya no choice, I had to be there.

I prepared early dahil susundin ko pa sa bahay ang pamangkin ko. Yaya na lamang nila ang nadatnan ko doon.

"Where's Jojie?" I asked.

"Jojie! Ate Naya is here na!" sigaw naman ng yaya nila.

Nakita ko namang nagtatakbo pababa ng hagdan si Jojie, he's cute to his outfit. I lowered myself para maging katapat ko siya.

"You look so excited, Joj." I pinch his nose na agad naman niyang nilayo.

"Ouch." He said, caressing his nose. "Can we go now ate Naya?"

I stood up, "sure, tara na." I held his hand. Nagpaalam na kami sa yaya at naghintay ng masasakyan papunta sa malapit na Jollibee.

As we came there, sinalubong naman kami ng ilang guest and Jollibee staffs. Naupo naman kami doon ni Jojie.

"Jojie, dito ka lang!" tawag ko sa kanya nang bigla siyang umalis sa kinauupuan namin.

Hindi naman ako pinansin ni Joj dahil nakipaglaro na ito sa ibang mga bata.

"Ako pwede?" someone said.

I shook my head, not looking at him. "Sorry, may nakaupo na kasi eh."

"Ay gano'n ba?" a disappointment came of out his tone.

Napaangat na lang din nman ako ng ulo ko at halos manlaki ang mga mata ko ng makilala ko kung sino ang nasa harapan ko. His smiles stuck in his lips, halos hindi magkamayaw ang kabog sa dibdib ko nang nasa harapan ko siya ngayon.
