After

Three: Cafeteria War

Andi's POV

I'm waiting for Ela to arrive in class. Then suddenly,she went in. Thirty minutes early.

"Hi Ela." She sat beside me. She's in between Gab and I.

"Hello,Andi." And she smiled.

"Ela,I'll ask you something after class." Gab said.

"Okay,sige." Ela replied.

The girl in front of Ela,Aya,looked back. She looked at Ela and Gab.

"Guys,musta ang date?" Aya asked and smiled.

"Ano? Date?" I asked, irritated.

"Hala! Si Andi naman oh. Kung makareact." Aya said.

"Andi,di yun date. Aya,san mo naman nakuha yan?" Ela said.

"Eh kasi....wala,wala! Erase,erase! Tingnan niyo si Andi oh. Parang uusok. Aya said,kidding.

"Tigilan mo nga ako Aya! Pag di ako nakapag pigil sayo...."

"Oh. Ano? Sige,bring it on!" Aya replied.

I got mad that's why I stood up,kicked my chair,and went out of the classroom.

Ela's POV

"Andi!" I shouted and I wanted to follow him but Gab held me back.

"Ela,wag na. Dito ka nalang. Baka naman saktan ka pa niyan."

"Di ko kasi maintindihan eh. Bakit siya nagalit?"

"Ang manhid mo." Singit ni Aya.

"Hala. Bakit?"

"Syempre,nagseselos yun."

I got surprised to what Aya said. I was supposed to say something when class started.

"Hala....wala pa si Andi." I said nervously.

"Bayaan mo na yun." Gab said.

*After class*

Mika's POV

"Hi Ela." I said to Ela as we both walk out the classroom.

"Hey." Ela said.

"Ela..."

"Yeah?"

"Uhm..."

"Ela,remember? I'll tell you something." Gab said.

"Oh. Oo nga pala. Sorry,Mikaela,I have to go."

"It's Mika. Okay,bye!" I said.

Actually,I was supposed to ask her if she's dating Gab pero bigla naman dumating si Gab. -.-

Gab's POV

"Ela..."

"Ano yun?"

"Uhmm.."

"Hahaha. Para kang si Mika. Di makaimik."

I sighed. "Pwede ba kita ligawan?"

Ela looked surprised. "What?"

"Kung...pwede ba kita ligawan?"

"Oo nga. I heard." Ela said sarcastically.

"So...pwede ba?"

"Di ko alam kay kuya eh."

"Yun ba? Eh. Sabi ng kuya mo pwede daw eh."

"Ah."

*Moment of silence*

"So..." I said but West interrupted me.

"Ela,pinayagan ko talaga yan." West said to Ela while he held her at the waist.

"Kung okay lang sayo,edi....sige." Ela said. I got happy.

"Really?"

"Bakit? Ayaw mo ba?" Ela asked sarcastically.

"Ano ka ba?! Syempre gusto!"

"Sige. I have to go." West said and he kissed Ela in the forehead.

Andi's POV

I saw West,Ela,and Gab near the cafeteria. What could they possibly be doing there? I think I should say sorry to Ela for the way I acted a while ago. Pero iniwan ni West silang dalawa. Is this possible? West? Iniiwan kapatid niya? Sa isang lalaki? Sa sobrang protective niyan?

Lumapit ako kay Gab at Ela.

"Ela..."

"Ayan. Isa ka pa." Ela said.

"Anong isa pa ako?"

"Isa ka pang di makaimik. Ano ba kasi yun?"

"Bakit ka galit?"

"Hindi naman ako galit eh." She said but she's not looking at me and she sounds mad.

"Sus. Halata. Ang halata,hindi dine-deny."

"Ewan ko sayo."

"Sorry na oh."

She didn't answer me but she's packing her bag.

"Gab tara na." She said.

I held her arm. "Sorry na nga."

"Ano ba? Bitawan mo nga ako!"

"Andi,bitawan mo na siya." Gab said.

"Huwag ka nga mangailam!" I told him.

I didn't notice that West saw us.

"Get away from my sister!" West said,pushing me. "Ela! Umalis ka na dito! Gab,take care of her." Then umalis na silang dalawa.

"What do you think you're doing to her?!" West shouted. Everyone in the cafeteria went out. I was still lying on the ground because he pushed me. I stood up.

"I'm just saying sorry. But she was mad and I got irritated." I tried to explain to him.

"You! I never want to see you near her again!" West shouted.

"West! Teka lang!" But West already left.
