AIRA
It's the same boring first day of classes. My eyes felt droopy staring outside the window. I wasn't able to get enough sleep. This always happens every first week of classes. I'm too used to sleeping at 2:00 am on vacations then I have to adjust my sleeping pattern once classes resume.
Ramdam ko pa ang bigat ng katawan ko pakiramdam ko tinatawag ako nang malambot na kama. I yawned with my mouth wide open and stretched my arms. Agad din akong umayos ng upo dahil sa gulat nang bigla na lamang katukin ng teacher and lamesa gamit ang kaniyang hawak na pamaypay. Lumikha iyon nang nakakairitang tunog.
Sitting beside the window is always a bad idea. Maliban sa pagiging lutang ng utak ko dahil sa kakulangan sa tulog, pilit ding inaagaw ng malawak na tanawin mula sa bintana ang atensiyon ko.
I fixed my gaze in front where a tall figure stood firm. He's standing beside the teacher's table where our class adviser sat holding her fan in one hand. Since it's the first day of classes, the ever traditional ritual of introducing yourself has been going on for like hours. Parang gusto ko na lang imbitahin lahat nang magiging teacher namin para isahan lang ang pagpapakilala.
"I am Adrian Morillo, 18 years old." maikling pakilala nung lalaking nasa unahan. Kahit ilang ulit na yata kaming nagpakilala ay hindi ko pa rin matandaan ang bawat isa sa kanila. May itsura ito kaya hindi mapigilang matuon ang tingin ko dito. I'm never an admirer of looks because I always wanted to look within the tangible characteristics of a person but I'd like to comment on his looks.
He's about six feet tall which is quite charming for a guy. His unique dark golden brown hair was screaming for attention as it glowed from the light rays escaping through the window. It perfectly matches his russet brown eyes. He has a wonderful plump lower lip and his upper lips have a not-so-defined cupid's bow but its imperfectness made it look as if they were begging to be bitten, not to mention they looked like cherries with its color. Thick brows screaming with arrogance and his well-defined jaw which is dangerously gorgeous.
"Uhmm miss? quit staring, alam kong gwapo ko, pero ikaw na ang susunod kanina ka pa tinatawag ni Ma'am." biglang sabi nung lalaking nagpakilala bilang Adrian na ngayon pala ay nasa harapan ko na.
What the--? Anong gwapo? Saang parte?! Bat di ko yata makita?!
Gosh ang kapal naman ng mukha niya. Oo sinabi kong may itsura siya pero lahat ng tao may itsura. Wala akong sinabing gwapo siya o hindi!
Inirapan ko siya at tsaka tumayo. Mukha ngang kanina pa ko tinatawag dahil nakatingin na din sakin yung iba naming kaklase. Damn this is embarassing.
"I am Athena Aira Hernandez. 17 years old." mabilisan kong sabi at saka pinilit na ngumiti. I know he saw me gawking at him! And it's not just him who saw, the whole class did.
Matapos ng nangyaring yun sa classroom 'di ko na muna siya kinausap dahil sa kahihiyan. I am quite annoyed. He doesn't have to mention how I stared at him and admired his gorgeousness.
Siya yung tipong feeling cold at mailap pero pacool at mahangin. Alam niyo yun? Yung tipong ang sarap sapakin sa mukha?
The class was dismissed for a 30-minute break.
Wala ako sa mood lumabas ngayon. Malamang sa malamang siksikan na naman sa canteen ngayon. Ayoko namang makisiksikan dun, ang init-init baka mamaya kung ano pa maamoy ko dun. Don't get me wrong, hindi ko naman sinasabing may putok yung estudyante dito. It's just that ayokong nakakaamoy nang matapang na pabango lalo na yung sa lalaki. Malamang sa malamang mayaman pa sa pabango ang mga estudyante ngayon dahil nagsisimula pa lang ang klase. Hanggang sa padugyot na nang padugyot habang lumilipas ang mga buwan.
