< Vincent's POV >
Hey guys! How are y'all? I know you guys are wondering who the hell am I. Well, I am Vincent Adrian Rodriguez. I am a senior year student at OLICH. And lastly, I am about to court Alexis.
For sure, may mga mapapataas ng kilay sa inyo sa nasabi ko. Sino nga ba namang matinong tao ang pagkatapos ng ilang araw na pakikipag-usap ay manliligaw na?
But just so you guys know, your thoughts and impressions about me are of no importance. But still, I appreciate the effort you guys gave to judge me.
Fine. May mga bagay akong ikukwento sa inyo. I guess I owe you all that. Here is a flashback that may help you guys to fully understand me.
{ Flashback starts here }
Andito ako ngayon sa tapat ng gates ng school ko. Hayy, it's the start of a tormenting year once again. Medyo nagpapasalamat na rin ako sa mga estudyante ng school na'to eh, mas madalang pa sa ulan sa isang disyerto ang nakikipag-usap sa akin. Masaya na ako na ang tanging nakakausap ko sa eskwelahang ito ay ang utak ko, or I guess I let myself think of that.
Gusto ko yung lugar kung saan ako inilagay ni Ma'am. It's perfect. Or I thought it was, bading kasi yung itinabi sa akin ni Ma'am. For the record, I am not a homophobe. I just don't like how annoyingly loud they are. And sa tingin ko, this gay guy beside me is just like the other gay guys you have encountered.
But again, for the times immemorial, I was wrong.
He was different from the common gays you see everywhere. Napakahinhin nya! He is more ladylike than other ladies. He also likes saying sorry kada may malalaglag syang bagay o kada masisiko nya ako.
Now, gusto nyo bang malaman kung kelan ako nagsimulang matuwa sa kanya? Truth be told, hindi ko din talaga alam.
I guess it all started when I find all the things he do very entertaining.
Andyan yung tuwing kinukunot nya yung noo nya everytime he encounters a complex math problem. Andyan pa yung mga random acts of craziness nya with April every lunch break. He also loves practicing soliloquy. The way he strides was also amusing, for he desperately tries to exude the same vibe just like those supermodels he idolize. Not to mention pa the famous confrontations with Garie that he lead.
But I guess, it was his never fading smile that made my insides warm. Yung ngiti nya ay yung mga klase ng ngiti na hindi mo mapipigilan yung sarili mo kundi ngumiti din. He's awesome that way.
Ilang beses kong sinubukan kausapin sya, pero sobra akong nahihiya eh. For a short period of time, naging popular na sya sa buong campus. Eh ako? I am one of the dead kids. Ano ng chance ko na makausap sya? Seems impossible right?
Nung tree planting, muntikan ko na syang lapitan para kausapin. Pero nilapitan agad sya nung mga kaibigan nya. Kung yung isa ngang tao nahihirapan na akong lapitan, yung grupo pa kaya na may anim na tao?
