“Fvck! Focus, Madds!” I told to myself.
“Problema mo babae?” Sam asks.
Kahit anong pagpapakabusy ko sa pagdrawing ng hardware store na ‘to ay hindi pa rin maalis sa isipan ko ang nangyari noong nakaraang gabi. Pang limang illustration board ko na ito at hindi ko maperfect-perfect. I really hate myself because I can’t forget what just happened that time, its affect my concentration these past few days.
“Maddison I like you too.”
Hindi ko pa nga alam kung nanliligaw si Jeron sa akin tapos pumasok naman sa eksena si Jeric. “M.U na ba kami? Yung Malanding Usapan?” I thought. What if Jeron finds out that his Ahia likes me? How would he react?
“Are you okay? Bangag ka na naman ah.” Tiningnan ko naman si Sam na hawak-hawak ang lapis na pinang hampas sa noo ko. Ganito na ata talaga yung epekto ng sinabi ni Jeric sa akin.
“Oh-o.” maikling sagot ko at bumalik na din sa ginagawa niya si Sam. Buti na lang hindi ako iniwan dito sa dorm ng babaeng ito lalo pa’t wala si Alex.
Nag-aalangan din naman akong ikwento sa mga kaibigan ko ang sinabi ni Jeric kasi parang ang awkward pag-usapan. Pero ang bigat ng pakiramdam ko at kailangan meron akong mapagkwentuhan nito. Dati naman hindi ako nagssekreto eh.
“Sam?”
“Yes?” sagot niya habang patuloy pa rin sa pagddrawing. Hindi ko alam kong pwedeng sabihin dito kay Sam medyo matabil ‘to eh.
“Meron akong isshare sayo.” I calmly said.
“Go lang!” hindi niya pa rin itinitigil ang ginagawa niya. Pakanta-kanta pa ito at parang walang narinig sa akin.
“Jeric likes me.” I stated in my deepest voice but she stay still on what she was doing. I don’t know if she heard me or she just choose to ignore what I told her.
“Hey! I said Jeric likes me. He just told me that he likes me. Sam I need your advice and please mababaliw na ako kakaisip about it.” Hindi ko mapakaling sabi kay Sam with matching yugyog pa sa kanya.
“Arggg! Teka! Grabe maka-alog ah. Nawala yung idea ko tungkol dito sa project hardware na ito.” She protested. Inalis ko naman ng dahan-dahan ang kamay ko sa magkabilang balikat niya.
“Parang hindi mo kasi ako narinig. Kailangan ko bang ulitin yung sinabi ko?” I gave her a worried face.
“No need. Yun lang ba ang sasabihin mo?” she asks me back. Naupo siya ng paharap sa akin ang making some weird gestures.
“So, narinig mo pala! Anong say mo?” nilakihan ko siya ng mata. I walk toward my bed and let myself fell. Kakaurat kausap itong si Sam!
“Wala naman kasing bago, Madds. I knew it already I mean us. Duh! Obvious na obvious si Jeric at ikaw naman si Ms. Manhid.” She stated calmly. Sam sits down in the bed and started to brush my hair with her fingers.
