"Good morni---" natigil siya ng makitang wala nang tao sa bahay. Pumunta siya sa kusina pero wala ang mga kaibigan doon. Pumunta siya sa sala, sa banyo, sa likod bahay pero wala talaga sila. Maaga pa naman pero pumasok na agad sila? Isip niya. Pati si Mike hindi rin siya sinundo para sabayang pumasok. Kahit na nagtataka, inayos na niya ang sarili.
First Friday of the month kaya naman meron Mass.
The moment her feet touched the entrance of the campus, she felt something wrong. Parang may mangyayaring kakaiba ngayon araw. She concluded to herself. Shrugging, she just took her steps in.
As she was about to take her fifth step, someone hindered her. Standing infront of her was a man who was smiling and holding a stem of white rose. She frowned and gave him a confusing look. The man just shrugged then handed to her the flower. Though, she was confused she still get it and the man immediately left before she could ever utter a word.
Thinking what that meant, another man stopped infront of her. He did the same, handling her the flower.
"for me?" she asked. The guy nodded.
"wait lang. Ano bang nangyayari? Para saan 'yang bulalak?" She asked again, but instead of answering her question, that man infront just smiled. Her forehead suddenly knotted because of the silenceness of the guy. At dahil ayaw magsalita ng taong kaharap niya, kinuha niya nalang ang bulaklak. Mabilis namang umalis ang lalaki at iniwan na siya.
Naguguluhan man, mas nagaalala siya sa magiging reaksyon ni Mike kapag nakita niya ang mga bulaklak. Hindi niya alam kung matutuwa ba ito, magagalit o ano.
Eh bakit ko ba iisipin ang magiging reaction niya, hindi ko naman siya boyfriend. She said to herself.
She just held the flowers like a normal thing until someone, for the third time did the same. Blocked her way, handed the flower and left. Kinukuha niya nalang ang mga bulaklak dahil hindi rin siya tatantanan ng mga nagbibigay kahit anong gawin niya. She even tried to ran but seemed useless. Hinabol pa rin siya at pinilit na kunin ang mga ito.
Nasundan iyon hanggang sa maging dalawangpung kulay puting mga rosas na ang hawak niya.
As a girl, part of her was drooling because of the blissfulness though wasn't sure if the flowers were from Mike or not. But still another side of her was confused and feeling odd. She didn't want to assume because for her it will always lead to disappointment.
Natigil lang siya ng paglalakad at pagiisip nang marating na niya ang Chapel, dito kasi ginaganap ang Mass. Napansin niya rin ang mga estudyante na unti unting lumalapit sa kanya. They were encircling her while smiling. She felt really odd. Murmurings began to form. And for the first time, majority of the words were good.
"gosh! Ang swerte niya talaga"
"He's here!!"
She turned around 360° just to see if that man was also in the crowd pero wala siyang nakita miski anino ni Mike. Gusto niya nang umalis dahil isa iyon sa mga pinaka ayaw niya - to be the center of attention. Nilibot niya ulit ang paningin para maghanap ng pwedeng daanan nang biglang..
"hi!" he greeted as he stood infront of her with all of a sudden. She seemed surprised as her lips parted a little bit. Mike was smiling down at her while she was slowly drowning on his goddamn looks. He really looked handsome with just a black polo - sleeves tucked on his elbows and a denim pants. Perfectly matched with his sexy-messy hair. Kahit na ayaw niyang puriin ito, hindi niya pa rin mapigilan.
"mamaya mo na buksan 'to, when I kiss you" he whispered seductively as he made her lips closed. Mukhang natauhan naman si Cassey. She folded her arms on her chest and looked at him, sternly.
