I'll Wait Here (One Shot)

"Hi! Hobert!"

Tch, Eri's talking to that guy again.

"Here, take this! Feel free to criticize it!" 

Even though I'm her best friend she doesn't smile at me like that. She doesn't even want me to taste her homemade cookies. And.. and... During Valentine's Day, I'm the only guy who didn't receive any chocolate from her. *sob*

"Oy, you why are you crying?"

I lifted up my head and saw Eri in front of me.

"Can I have chocolates too?" 

"I ate all of it already." she lifted up the empty tupperware.

"Liar!" *sob* *sob* 

"Ow!" She threw the empty tupperware at me.

I gave the tupperware back then smiled at her but she just looked away.

By the way, I'm Ian Troy, Erisa Jamaica's childhood best friend. Since elementary magkasama na kami niyan ni Eri pero kahit isang beses, hindi ko pa siya nakikitang ngumiti sa harapan ko. Palagi rin niya akong inaaway at sinasaktan. Sadista nga ata yung babae na 'yon eh, pero kahit ganun siya di ko siya magawang iwanan at saktan. I don't know why but ayokong mahiwalay sa kanya.

And because of that tupperware-cookie incident, palagi na niya akong nilulutuan ng pagkain, palagi na rin niya akong ini-invite sa bahay nila para maglaro o gumawa ng project pero palagi niya pa rin akong inaaway. Kung dati hindi niya ako binibigyan ng chocolate tuwing Valentines, ngayon, araw-araw ko na natitikman yung mga chocolate na bini-bake niya. Pero, hindi pa rin niya ako pinapayagang kumain ng cookies niya.

"Ian!" a girl called me but I just ignored it because if Eri found me talking to a girl she'll surely kick me.

"Ian Troy! Please look outside the windows! IAN TROY!

What an annoying brat! I have no other choice but to look outside the window para manahimik na rin sila. Ang aga aga pa nga nambu-bwisit na!

When I looked outside the window, I saw girls from 3-A na may hawak hawak na cartolina at may nakasulat na "I-A-N-T-R-O-Y-C-A-N-Y-O-U-B-E-M-Y-P-R-O-M-D-A-T-E?" While I was reading that, I saw Eri near those girls. She's starin at me pero nung nakita ko siyang nakatingin bigla niyang iniwas yung tiningin niya sakin at naglakad palabas ng school. Dahil di ko alam anong gagawin ko, Bumaba ako at hinabol si Eri palabas ng school. I just ignored those ugly bitches who called me earlier. Pero paglabas ko ng school, nakita ko si Eri. Tawag ako ng tawag sa kanya habang tumatakbo pero she just ignored me.

After that scene happened, Eri didn't talked to me. Three days had passed but still... Eri, alam ko na kahit na galit na galit siya sakin hindi niya gagawin to sakin. Whenever she's mad at me, she'll just throw things at me and tell me that I'm stupid. Hindi pa nangyari 'to saming dalawa ni Eri. Si eri, alam kong kahit na galit siya, hindi niya kayang tiisin na hindi ako kausapin kaya naman kahit umuulan ngayon, nandito ako sa front gate nila. Maghihintay ako dito hanggang sa marinig ko ang salitang stupid. Pero...

"Uhm, excuse me, Sir Ian Troy?" biglang may nagsalita sa likuran ko. 

"Uhm. Is Erisa inside?" si Tom pala, yung driver ni Eri.

"I'm sorry but Miss Erisa said she does not want to see you."

"Ah is that so? Okay, I understand." 

Erisa, what's your problem? Why don't you just face me and tell me that you hate me like what you always do. You can throw pebbles and stones at me but please don't just ignore me like that. Hindi ko mapigilang hindi isipin si Eri!
