Wrong Facebook Account
Chapter 2
“How can you be so stupid not to know na hindi mo FB account ang gamit mo??” Belle scolded me
“Look. We all had the same Profile Picture on our FBs, which is ang logo ng basketball team natin. It was a sign of support for our school’s team. How was I supposed to know na hindi pala ang FB account ko ang naka sign in sa laptop ko?!” I defended.
“Well, did you tell Carly?”
“Of course not. I deleted the post as soon as I realized my mistake. Deleted my whole conversation with him and blocked him on Carly’s FB account.”
“Thank God, you’re smart.” Belle gave me a consoling pat on my shoulder
“Thank God.” I agreed.
“So, gwapo ba?” my bestfriend had this goofy smile on her face. “Wait, don’t tell me you didn’t even bother to check his profile page?!”
“Duh? Di ko sya kilala, he was merely a stranger. Ang nakita ko lang sa profile picture nya is the logo of Skyline University’s b.team and the beaver.”
“You know what friend? You are a clear proof that no one is really perfect.”
“What is that supposed to mean?!”
“You were technically having a conversation with a guy longer than you would actually have a conversation with an actual person and you didn’t even try to find out what he looks like???”
“I’m not Carly.” I sarcastically answered
“True.” She easily agreed. Pag talaga negative ang usapan tungkol kay Carly, agad agad syang nag-aagree. “Do you even remember his full name?” she continued
“Kevin Aragon.” I nonchalantly replied. “Tsaka, let’s forget about him. He’s from Skyline U., our rival school. There’s no chance he and Carly will meet in person.”
“Lakasan mo ang panalangin mo. Maliit lang ang mundo.” Pananakot pa ni Belle
The subject I liked the most became the one I least like since it was the only class where kaklase ko si Riley.
“Hi.” Speaking of the devil.
“Hi.” I forced myself to smile at him as he sat next to me
“Uhm, sorry..”
Oh marunong pala syang mag sorry.
“For what?” I feigned ignorance
“Elaine, ayokong isipin mo na kinaibigan lang kita dahil kay Carly.”
“Ah talaga?” sarcastic ko’ng sagot without looking at him
“Look. Kumakailan ko lang nakilala si Carly. Bago pa man tayo naging magkaklase, ni minsan hindi ko pa sya nakita.”
Napatingin ako sa mga narinig ko. I looked at Riley and saw him looking at me intently.
“Aaminin ko, I was hoping na ipakilala mo ko sa kapatid mo. Pero first day of class, sayo ako nanghiram ng bolpen. Araw araw sayo ako humihingi ng papel. Kinaibigan kita dahil gusto at di dahil sa kapatid mo si Carly. Kung may ibang dahilan man para kaibiganin ka, siguro para pakopyahin mo ko sa mga assignment at exam natin. Alam ng lahat na dean’s lister ka, sigurado ako hindi lang ako ang may intensyon na kaibiganin ka para pumasa sa subject na ito.”
I unintentionally laughed at his serious face as he was all saying these things.
“Para sa akin, may Carly man o wala, kakaibiganin kita. At ayokong masira yung pagkakaibigan natin ng dahil lang sa isang beses na kagaguhan ko.” He held my hand and I knew within myself na at that moment all else were forgiven.
He went on his knees in front of me and held my hand for the whole class to see.
“Please, patawarin mo na ako? Bati na tayo, please???” those puppy eyes didn’t help with the fact na lahat ng mga kaklase namin ay nakangisi at nanunuod na para ba’ng may live shooting ng isang romantic movie.
Well, I wished that was the case. But, it wasn’t.
“Mr Valiente, sabihan mo ko pag tapos na ang love confession mo so I can start with my class.” Biglang sabi ng professor namin
Nagtawanan ang mga kaklase namin. Pilit ko’ng hinihila si Riley sa kanyang pagkakaluhod pero di ito gumagalaw sa pwesto nya.
“One minute, Sir!” sagot ni Riley
“Ano’ng ginagawa mo? Nakakahiya kay Sir, tumayo ka na dyan!”
“Pero bati na tayo?” he smiled sweetly
I would love to show the whole class how kilig I am right now pero seeing our teacher with his hands crossed above his chest just made me more embarrassed than kilig.
“Oo na, sige na. Tayo na dyan!” I finally gave in
Naghiyawan ang buong klase as Riley sat back in his seat, next to me. I just can’t help but bow my head down knowing that our teacher was amused at the show Riley just gave.
“Alright. Tapos na ang palabas, settle down. Let’s start the class.” And with that, my kilig was pushed back for a while and I focused on studying instead.
