isay's innocent love

chapter 2: isay.. be nice :)

CHAPTER 2

            “Hey.. so I was thinking…since mr. Philosophy don’t want me in his class next year, and gusto ko nang grumaduate… and tutal naman gusto niyang tulungan mo ako because you seem to be a really good student…”, pagsisimula ni David.

            Napatingin naman si Alyssa kay David. She fought the urge to raise an eyebrow. She’s doing her best to being nice to the guy, just so she could prevent him from teasing her. “say it na David. I don’t like it when my time goes to waste.”

            Bumuntonghininga si david. “Okay. I want you to help me with philosophy.. I don’t want to fail the subject. And just a few days observing you in class, I think master mo na ang subject.”

            “master ang subject.. Hindi ba, mas dapat na ikaw ang master ng subject since this is the second time that you took it?”, she asked sarcastically.

            David smiled his half quizzical smile. “Well.. it Is my second time taking the subject.. but I always slept in class! All those basketball practice took up the good in me. So I never really learned a lot from last year. So I hope you can be my tutor.”, he said. Kinamot pa niya ang batok na tila nahihiya sa sinasabi.

            Dapat naman talaga siyang mahiya. And she agreed that the good in him was taken up a long long time ago. She thought to herself. “well.. you don’t seem to sleep at class this year.. so I think you’ll learn enough for you to pass.”, she smiled sarcastically as she usually does with this guy. This is still part of her trying to be nice so she put up a smile. It was just that she cant help giving him a sarcastic one.

            “But.. Please Alyssa?”, David said with much eagerness. He looked genuinely concerned about his studies. She gave Alyssa a desperate-cute, puppy-dog-eyes look.

            Alyssa was moved. If she’s not busy with a lot of work, she helps some students with her studies. Helping another one wont actually be a biggie but this is David. She bit her lower lip. “uhmm..”, she said finding words to reject him. “Im sorry I really don’t think I can find the time to tutor you.. you see, I work at the library every Mondays to Wednesdays after class. I also work part time in a bakeshop. Plus I also have errands at home. So you see, walang time para sayo..”

            Kumunot ang noo ni David. “You work at the library?”

            “yeah,.. Im assisting our librarian. You know? I have to complete the working hours at school offices for my scholarship. I just chose the library since I can do my homework while working and the librarian and I are pretty close.”, Alyssa explained. Nagtaka pa siya when she shared THAT much information to this guy. Hindi naman sila close.

            “Oh.. Okay.. Strange.. I don’t think I ever saw you at the library.”, komento ni David, he looked like he was really thinking deeply trying to recall a very distant memory.

            “Yeah.. Bihira ka lang kasi doon.. And you seem to be there not because of the books but because of The BOOBS.”, Alyssa answered sarcastically. Iminuwestra niya pa ang boobs niya.

            Nagkibit-balikat si David. “Wow.. Your accusing me..”, he said, napadawi ang tingin nito sa dibdib niya.

            “Am I?”, painosenteng sagot ni Alyssa. Napansin niyang nakatingin si David sa dibdib niya. Okay. Given that she was fully clothed, and disente ang school uniform nila, hindi niya pa rin maiwasan ang maconscious. She knew her body well. Specially her boobs. She routinely does a monthly self breast examination since she has a family history of breast cancer. She knows she is kind of gifted in her chest part. Pasimple niyang tinkpan ang maumbok na dibdib ng libro na dinampot niya mula sa mesa niya. “Last year.. sa shelves ng Classic Literature.. with Angel the cheerleader..”, she teased, as she attempted to refresh his memory.

            Natawa naman si David amazed. “Wow. You saw us? No.. You watched us! Nakarinig ako ng footsteps when I was trying to get inside her skirt!”

            “Woah! Way too much information!” pigil ni Alyssa sa kung ano pa man ang sasabihin ni David. “You are the one accusing me here. Hindi ko kayo pinapanood. May ilalagay lang ako doong mga books and I saw you guys so I ran away..”

            “ooh.. Chicken”, he teased. He knew it. Alyssa is a sweet innocent girl. A proof was her blushing plus hindi nakaligtas sa kanya ang pasimple nitong pagtatakip sa dibdib nito nang madako ang tingin niya doon kahit pa nakadamit ito. Most girls are proud of their boobs specially with a pair as perky as hers. He smiled teasingly at Alyssa. “chicken”, he chucked, he even moved his arms as if doing a chicken dance.

            “Im not”, sagot ni Alyssa at pinameywangan pa si david. She stood at david’s front all too proudly. She is no chicken, most of the time at least.

Natigilan si david. He noticed how well her curves were placed on her body na naemphsize ng pamemewang nito. Napalunok siya.

            “Ate isay!”

            Nilingon ni Alyssa ng pamilyar na tinig. It was Diane, she was waving at her. Dala dala ang tray ng kanyang pagkain ay nilapitan ni Alyssa ang kaibigan. “Hi. Musta? Nakapag-adjust ka na ba sa college life?”, she asked her with all smiles. Umupo siya sa upuan na katapat nito.

            “Okay lang. Sisiw! Sabi sakin, ang third year daw ng college ang may pinakamahirap na experience. Diba 3rd year ka na? Mahirap ba talaga ate?”, Diane asked bago nagsubo ng pagkain. “Shaaraaap!”, she exhaled exaggeratedly.

            Napangiti si Alyssa. “Hindi naman masyado mahirap. Ang laki nga lang ng gastos.. and you remember the ever so great David? Seatmate ko siya sa philosophy! Geez! Pinaglalaruan ata ako ng tadhana.”

            “haha.. okay lang yan ate isay.. Hindi ka naman attracted sa kanya kaya hindi siya magiging istorbo sayo.”, anito while patting her shoulder.

            Bumuntonghininga si Alyssa. “I hope so! Eh kaso lang ang kulit kulit! Balak pa akong gawing tutor! Naku.. sino ba naman kasi ang hindi babagsak? Natutulog lang siya sa class. Pag gising naman nakatitig lang na parang ewan.. And have you seen his notes? Puro-“

            “drawing, doodles, graffiti. Yeah.. That is so him”, putol ni Diane sa sasabihin niya.

            Kumunot ang noo ni Alyssa. “How did you know? May backsubject din ba siya sa year level mo? Pwede ba yun?” super curious niyang tanong.

            Natawa si Diane. “Di ko pa pala nakekwento ate? Kuya ko si David.”

            “Kuya?!!”, naibulalas ni Alyssa.

            “Yeah. Cant you tell from our features? Pareho kaming goodlooking!” singit ni David behind Alyssa.

            Napasinghap naman si Alyssa sa pagkabigla. Bigla na lang sumolpot ang mayabang na binata. “Diane is pretty good looking alright.. but you?”, pagtataray niya.

            “isay.. isay,… Ang taray mo talaga sa akin. You know what they say about not pleasing some people right?”, David tsked as he sat at the chair beside Alyssa’s.

            “fine fine.”, Alyssa sighed as she remembered their agreement that she’d be nice to him so long as he wont piss her off. “but Stop calling me isay.. hindi nga tayo close!”, pasimpleng pambabara ni Alyssa habang si Diane naman ay natatawa habang pinagmamasdan sila. She’s loosing her cool- again.

            “Whatever. I have a great offer for you Alyssa.”, David smiled at Alyssa and told her about his plan.
