Pumasok ako sa gate ng school nang nakangiti. I fixed my beats headphones and smiled at the students who were looking at me. Ewan, I'm in a good mood today! Siguro kasi nanalo kami kahapon and Dennise was there to watch. And the police took charges from Christian Joseph. Gagong yun.
"He what's up hello! Seen your pretty ass..." I sang while dancing. Pinapakingan ko kasi yung 2015 mashup! Galing galing kaya niya.
Nakita ko si Victon na papalapit. I smiled but the latter was saying something. I waved my hand. Patakbo siyang lumapit.
"Don't you dare look back! Keep your eyes on me..."
"Alex!"-Victon
"Oh I tell you all about it when I see you again!"
Geez! This song is lit! Dapat pala sa mashups nalang ako nakikinig.
Natapos na ang song kaya tinanggal ko ang headphones ko.
"Dali na Alex!"-Victon
"Huh? Problema mo?" Tanong ko kay Victon na ngayon ay parang nagmamadaling utusan ako. "May ipapagawa ka na naman bang prank saakin?"
"No! Hindi 'to prank! Totoo na 'to!"-Victon
I raised an eye brow. Nag pray sign siya sa harapan ko kaya tinanguan ko siya.
"I need to buy a sanitary napkin at the store. Can you do it for me? Please?" Pagmamakaawa niya. "I swear! I-e-excuse kita kay coach pag wala ka sa practice!"
Napaayos ako ng tayo. Tumingin tingin ako sa paligid. No one's looking. I offered my hand.
"Money."
"Use your money."-Victon
"Gago ka ba?!" Asar kong tanong sakanya. "Why do you even need a sanitary napkin?! Emergency ba ni Shiela?! Gago, ikaw boyfriend niya!"
Napa face-palm siya. "Tsk! Tangina naman!" Aniya at saka mabilis na kinuha ang tumutunog niyang phone. I could hear Shiela's angry voice.
"Oh, sige! Bye." I said with a smile.
"Dalian mo na kasi! Or else we'll excuse her the whole damn day!"
"Babe, Hindi pwede! She has quiz bee to attend to!"-Victon
"Well, ayaw mo naman kasing bumili ng kailangan..."
"Ito na nga eh! Bibili na!" He lowered down his voice. "With wings ba? Anong sanitary napkin? Modess or what?"
"Buy Always with wings. Kuha ka na din nung walang wings."
Lumapit ulit ako kay Victon at pinakinggan ang phone.
"Akala ko ba may wings lang?! Wala akong pera!"-Victon
"She'll pay it back!" A pause and I heard footsteps, a knock on a door. "Dennise, are you okay? Masakit ba talaga?"
"Can you ask him to buy painkillers as well? No! Don't tell him I'm having cramps. Kakahiya 'to!"
"Ah, hahaha! Kunwari hindi mo yun narinig. Kay, babe?" Bulong ni Shiela sa phone.
Victon scratched his head. Gumalaw siya kaya nagka-untugan kami. Galit ko siyang kwinelyuhan.
"You should have told me na it's for Dennise! Pag yun naubusan ng dugo mapapatay kita!"
Ibinigay ko na sakanya ang bag ko. I only brought my wallet and phone. I checked the time. 10 minutes before the bell rings.
Tumakbo ako palabas ng gate. I looked around. The stores where all school supplies. Nakita ko ang maliit na drug store sa pinaka dulo. Elementary department. Bakit nasa elementary department yung store na yun? Kailangan ng mga bata ang sanitary napkins? Psh.
