Her Greatest Fall

5th🕕

"Handa ka na ba sa pag pasok hija?"

"Opo tito", I answered. I decided to just wear a floral white dress partnered by a 3/4 denim jacket and skin toned flats. I just let my hair be at lumabas na sa bahay pagkatapos mag sipilyo at nagpaalam.

Naglakad lang ako papunta sa bahay nina Elis at Roma.

"Mornin' Gab!"

"Magandang umaga rin sa inyo"

"Let's just wait for Dos to come here, dala niya sasakyan niya"

Few minutes later ay dumating na si Dos riding a Hennessey Venom F5. Dude, that's one of the fastest cars in the world!

"Hop in, malelate na tayo!" Elis rolled her eyes. " Whose fault do you think it is?"

Walang pang limang minuto ay nakarating na kami sa university. "This will be the last time that I'll be riding this piece of junk."

"Scaredy cat" bulong ni Dos.

We went to find kung saang department kami pupunta.

"Found it! West Department, Room 011.... Calveria... Defiante... Iriarte... Majestri..."

"We're in the same room!" sabi niya sabay tunog ng bell. Nagtakbuhan kami papunta doon at pumasok na.

"You're late"

"Sorry po prof." sabay nilang sabi.

"You must be Ms. Iriarte" this voice seems familiar.

As we made eye contact, I did not hesitate to run and hug him. This guy is really something...

I hugged him really tight hanggang hindi na pumapatong ang mga paa ko sa sahig.

"Ionne"

"I'm here now, Mari" He whispered while he hugged me tighter.

"Umm prof, Gab? Sorry to break the scene but PDA kayo."

Oh right. Tumigil ako sa pag yakap.

"Sorry"

Time ran fast and it's dismissal. Nilapitan ako ni Ionne habang may dalang pagkain mula sa cafeteria.

"I can't believe it... Why the hell are you here?"

"Surprise?"

"I did not hear a word from you Mari... Si kuya lang ba ang sinabihan mo? Si Lylo grabe ang pag iyak sa bahay..."

"Pasensya ka na Ionne. Masyado kasing mabilis ang mga pangyayaring ito para sa akin at hindi ko masyadong ma control itong nararamdaman ko causing me to make some unnecessary decisons."

"And that decision which you think was right is a mistake."

"For you, yes it's a mistake but for me... It's right. A little change would not hurt me right? Besides, ginagawa ko naman rin ito para mapasaya ang lahat na umaasa sa'kin."

"Okay then. I won't judge your decisions. Hindi ko naman hawak ang puso mo diba?"

"I really appreciate it Ionne, salamat. By the way, ngayon ko lang nabatid na nagtuturo ka pala?"

"Well yeah. Actually it was a sudden invitation from the Lionels. Magdidinner kasi kami mamaya, sama ka?" tanong niya. The Lionels huh... Are there actually 9 siblings in that mansion?

"Well sure, if you want to"

"Gab, sama ka samin sa Lionel falls?"panimula ni Dos na ngayon lang nakarating kasama sina Elis at Roma. "Ah, may lakad kasi kami ngayon eh... May dala ka bang sasakyan, Ionne?" umiling siya.
