Prologue ..

 (Play muna ang video sa side. Medyo relate lang. ^_^)

Eight years ago ...

I was just an ordinary third year student at Simpsons Academy when I first met him.

Actually, I already know him for he was my ULTIMATE CRUSH since first year.

He was a senior student and the varsity team captain in the sports called football.

He's an athlete and I'm just a student striving my grades to get high.

I'm just an average person, not the genius kid nor the talented one.

He's the hearthrob, I'm the outcast.

He was valuable, I'm ignored.

He was the well-known and I'm the unknown.

He was the champion and I'm the flash in the pan.

He was entitled the "KICKER" while I was entitled the "Ass-Kicker".

He was on top and I'm just on my feet flat on the ground.

But after all the comparisons. I never expected that when the day I got beaten up by my sossy classmates and went to the clinic worned-out, he noticed me.

Not actually me, but my bruises body and my cut lips.

I was pissed off by the girls when they started to abuse my silenceness and disturb me when I'm at peace.

He was one of the volunteer in medical staff and luckily, he was the one assigned to nurse me.

He asked me if where did I get those bruises and why, so I honestly told him the truth that those girls were making a crap story about me. So I just defended myself.

And out of nowhere he said, "Trying to prove yourself to critics is an absolute waste of your time. You're just pushing them to believe what they have said."

After that day, I thanked all the girls who caused my way to clinic.

And that was also the day I stopped comparing my distance to him.

I was inspired by what he said.

I studied hard and harder, I ignored troubles and nonsense craps, I participated myself in any school organizations or activities and I've tried to assimilate with people.

My junior year ends and I'm very happy 'cause I was one of the honored student in my batch but unfortunately, he'll not see my improvement now for he was going to graduate and proceed to the journey where he wants to be.

But before that day he already asked me if I want to be his friend. I don't have any space in doubts in my head so I said yes to his proposal! Yey! I'm so happy!

It was my last year na in high school when I started to change my looks, on how I look and dress for me to look better and comfy.

Months past and I'm still hoping na he'll visit our school and our pathway will cross and we'll say Hi as we greeted each other. Well, I'm just hoping. There's no harm in hoping right?

I was on my way to clinic (na naman) not because I was troubled but because I'm not feeling well.

"N-nur--- ." I stopped when I saw someone standing behind his back. He look like someone who I really wanna see.

"Hi girl! Ano'ng kailangan mo?" ay! Mali pala. Akala ko siya na. Hindi pala. Bago sigurong nurse yan dito. Gwapo sana kaso parang bakla.

Sinabi ko sa nurse na masama ang pakiramdam ko at nahihilo ako. Maghintay lang daw muna ako sandali dito sa labas kasi aayusin niya pa ang clinic. Ang gulo daw kasi eh.

Kaya tumayo na muna ako sa labas kahit hilong-hilo na ako. Pinipikit ko na lang ang mata ko para huwag masyadong umikot ang sa paligid ko.

"Girl, pasok ka n--"

"HAYLEY!"

Hindi ko na alam kung ano'ng nangyayari pero narinig ko ang boses niya bago ako nawalan ng malay. Siguro kahibangan ko lang yun.

Hindi ko alam kung ano'ng oras na basta mga 8 am ako pumunta dito sa clinic. Bumangon ako at umupo sa gilid ng kama at tatayo na sana para umalis.

"Hay! Gising ka na pala!" sabi ko na nga ba. Hindi ako naghahallucinate. Nandiyan nga siya! "Nahimatay ka kanina. Mabuti na lang at nasalo kita. Kung hindi, baka nabagok na yang ulo mo." tumawa pa siya ng mahina.

Mas sumaya ako nang araw na yun kasi may sinabi siyang nagpaiba sa bilis ng tibok ng puso ko. Na sa tuwing iisipin ko ay namumula ako at ngumingiti ng kusa ang mga labi ko.

"Para hindi ka maging suki ng clinic. I'll be your guardian angel. I don't want you to be hurt so I'll always stay at your side."

Palagi na siyang dumadalaw sa school, hinahatid niya nga ako pauwi sa bahay, nililibre sa mga cafe's or fastfood chains, he also compliments me not only about how I looks but also my standings in school. Kilala na nga siya nila Mommy at ng dalawang kapatid ko.

Hindi ko na nga maintindihan kung ano na ba ang nararamdaman ko sa kanya, simpleng crush pa rin ba? Or lumevel up na?

Pinapasaya niya ako kahit sa konting galaw niya, kahit nga siguro paghinga niya ay kinasasaya ko na. Siya kaya? Ano ang nararamdaman niya pag ako ang kasama niya? Natutuwa rin kaya siya?

"Uhm.. Dave."

"Uhm.. Hay."

sabay naming tawag sa isa't isa.

"Ikaw na mauna."

"Mauna kana."

palitan naming dalawa. Nasa cupcake house kami ngayon sa medyo harapan ng aming school. Ang awkward nga kasi pinagtitinginan kami ng mga pumapasok na studyante. Hello? Isang Alexander Dave Martin kaya ang kasama ng isang Hayley Gail Locsin lang. Hindi kaba magugulat? o kaya magtataka?

"Ikaw na mauna Hay." pagpumilit niya.

"No, ikaw na. Nalimutan ko na kasi ang sasabihin ko." sasabihin ko lang naman kasi sana na mahal kita. Pero joke lang muna yun, sa susunod ko na lang sasabihin. Ayaw ko naman mag-assume. Ang totoo eh gusto ko sanang lumipat kami sa ibang lugar. Baka kasi kuyugin ako ng mga fangirls niya bukas.

"Uh, Hay. Ayoko na kasi sanang patagalin 'to." huh? Ang alin? Tinignan ko lang siya ng mata sa mata. Hinihintay sa karugtong ng sasabihin niya saka yumuko ulit at nilaro ang  mga daliri ko. "Hay, MAHAL KITA." I stopped as I've heard what he said. Ano daw sabi niya?

"Hay, mahal kita. Actually, matagal na siguro. Simula pa noong high school ako nakilala na kita. Natutuwa kasi akong pinapanood kang nakikipagbakbakan sa iba kahit alam na alam mong dehado ka kasi madami sila. Kaya nga ako nagvolunteer sa medical staff para nasa clinic ako palagi, hinihintay na mapadpad ka doon. Matagal rin kaya ang hinintay ko bago ka makalmutan sa katawan at nagkusang pumunta sa clinic." tumawa-tawa pa siya! Aba! Hindi man lang niya ako tinutulungan dati? at pinapanood niya lang akong makipagkalmutan sa mga babae?

"Pinasabihan na kita noon kay Miss Galvez na huwag makipag-away. Pero sadyang matigas ang ulo mo at sinuway ang teacher mo." ngumingiti-ngiti siya sa akin habang ako'y nakapoker-face dahil hindi ko alam kung ano ang irereaction ko or ano'ng sasabihin ko? Sasabihin ko rin ba sa kanya na mahal ko siya? Pero parang napaka-easy-to-get naman ang labas ko niyan.
