I got home at exactly 5:30 in the afternoon.

Almost one-hour kasi ang biyahe from our house to my new school. And yes! Kailangan kong tiisin ‘yon for FOUR years!!! Dahil 4-year course ang tina-take ko. Ayaw ko rin naman kasing mag-board eh, so tiis-tiis na lang ako. :D Hihi.

“Oh, andito ka na pala Dej? So? How was it?”, tanong ng Mama ko. Super close kami ng Mama ko, we’re like besfriends lalo na sa lakaran, shopping and all girl-stuffs. :D So, every time na uuwi talaga ako, nagkwekwento ako kung anong nangyari sa akin the whole day. Open kami sa isa’t isa eh. Pero, there’s one thing na di ko pa nasasabi sa kanila, and that is--- I have a BOYFRIEND/ MY FIRST BOYFRIEND EVER, Jace. -_- Medyo, kumukuha pa ko ng tiyempo eh pero sasabihin ko rin naman talaga but hindi pa siguro ngayon.

“Eh, ayon napaka-EPIC ng exams na ‘yon. Mag-ta-transfer na ako!!” protesta ko while unpacking my things from my bag. “Ah, oh ?? Hayy, ikaw pa! If I know, maipapasa mo rin naman ang two subjecs na ‘yon kahit ano pang complain mo diyan. HAHAHAHAHA. Oh, go get some rest, get changed na and we’ll have our dinner in a bit”, as she proceeds to the kitchen.

Dumeretso na ko kaagad sa room ko. Nilapag ko ang bag ko on top of my bed. While unbuttoning my loosely buttoned shirt, ‘cause I’m in a black sleeveless top tank na pinatungan ko ng skyblue shirt, biglang nag-ring ang phone ko. I fished it inside my bag and looked who’s been calling me. And, Wapaak!! It’s Jace. >.<

I pressed the Answer-Button. “Hello?” as I greeted him. “Hi! Miss you Thris!”, wala kaming cheesy na official na tawagan but we decided na Jace ang itatawag ko sa kanya and Thris naman itatawag niya sa akin. It’s like, kami lang kasi ang tumatawag sa isa’t isa sa ganyang mga names namin, so, ‘yon na.

“Parang three days palang tayong di nagkikita ah? Miss mo na ko agad??” as I giggled. “Hmpt! Bakit? Ikaw? Don’t you miss me?” I can hear the sadness in his voice. “Oh well, nope! ‘Cause I badly miss you so much Jace! I love you so much and you know that.” Sabi ko sa mahinang boses dahil ayaw ko munang malaman ni Mama. Kinikilig pa rin ako. Hihi. “Mahal na mahal din kita Thris…”, sagot niya. Yeah! Most of the time “mahal na mahal” ang ginagamit niyang words and hindi I love you which I found to be sweeter. HEHE. Weird. >.<

“Jace, I’ll call you back na lang later kasi tinatawag na ko ng Mama ko. I love you. Bye. Ehmmmwahh!” as I ended the call.

After we ate our dinner, umakyat na ako agad and went to my room. I take a shower and after that I’ve decided to check my Facebook Account. After an hour, I logged out but don’t close my computer. Sanay na kasi akong iniiwang naka-open ‘yon.

“Oh shhh*t!!” bigla kong naalala na kailangan ko palang tawagan si Jace.

Kriiiinnnngg! Kriiinnggg! Nakailang ulit na akong tawag pero di pa rin niya sinasagot phone niya. So I’ve decided to leave him a message--à

“Jace, so sorry. Late na kitang natawagan but you’re not answering your phone. Well, it’s late na, so I guess baka tulog ka na or what? Call you tomorrow as soon as I get up. And remind you, first day of school tomorrow. And you’re far away from here so please, gumising ka ng maaga! :D Manila ‘yan, ma-traffic so, di na pwede gawain mo na late gumigising. Sige, have to go. Bye. I love you Jace. :* Night. X.o.x.o"

Sa Manila mag-aaral ng college si Jace. He’ll be taking up BS Nursing. And I’m stuck here in our hometown, so it will be a little bit hard for us, LONG-DISTANCE RELATIONSHIP -______-. And yet, iilang weeks palang kami nito. Hayy. Sana nga tumagal kami, ah hindi pala, mali! Kung ‘yon ang hihilingin ko pwede pa rin kaming maghiwalay dahil oo nga, tumagal kami pero di naman lahat ng tumatagal ay ganoon na ‘til the end eh. So ang dapat kong i-wish ay “SANA, KAMI NA FOREVER!” >.< <3

I turned off the lights and lied down on my bed. I still cannot sleep. Bigla kong naisip na bakit dati naman kahit umagahin na kami ni Jace para lang magakausap gabi gabi sa phone, okay lang naman. Eh ba’t ngayon? Parang ang aga naman yata niyang natulog? Hmm.. Sa bagay, first day nga kasi bukas ng school so siguro naisip niyang matulog ng maaga. Hmmm… And after that, I closed my eyes and there, I slept.

Ayaw ka niya. Gets mo? AYAW.Tahanan ng mga kuwento. Tumuklas ngayon
