Love

Chapter 2

Tahimik lang akong naglalakad sa hallway since I want to have a peace of mind right now.

"BECCAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. WAIT UPPPPPPPP!" 

Yeah right peace of mind. Tumatakbo si Chloe papunta sakin. Ano naman kaya agenda neto.

"Miss Aragon, lower down you're voice." Professor Cruz said. Good for her, natyempuhan niya si Prof. Cruz.
"Sorry po." Sabi ni Chloe habang hinahabol pa ang hininga.

Hindi na siya pinansin ni Prof. Cruz kaya umalis na din kami.

"I heard my magtatransfer sa section natin." tsismis ni Chloe. Kaya pala.

"So?" I said with raising my eyebrow. Ano bang pakialam ko.

"Gwapo sila." sabay pang ngisi ni Chloe.

"Do I look like I care?" I said in a matter of fact tone.

"Yeah. Kasi isa lang naman dun yung nahalikan mo kagabi." now naka-evil smile na siya.

"I don't care. It was just a kiss." Yeah. It's just a kiss and besides I am single for pete's sake. Walang makakapigil sakin sabay pabebe wave.

"Okay. Ang hot pa naman nun. Nakita ko sila kanina eh at narinig ko pa silang nag-uusap. Section A2A pa silang lahat which happens to be our section also." walang prenong sabi ni Chloe.

"Bahala ka nga. Papasok na ako sa room."

"Excited makita ah." panunukso pa rin ni Chloe.

This girl. So alam niyo ba bakit sinabing kong wild. Hayyyssss. Binatukan ko na lang siya. Yan naman palagi ang ending ng conversation namin eh.

"Arayyyy. Ikaw Becca Montealto nakakaisa ka na ha. Isusumbong na kita sa Bantay Bata 163." habang hinihimas niya ang kanyang batok. Serves you right Aragon. Madaldal ka eh.

"Go ahead Chloe. By the way, natransfer mo na ang 20K?" I asked with my voice full of authority. Dignidad ko kaya tinaya ko kagabi.

"Oo. Kanina lang. Naiisahan mo talaga ako palagi."

Umiling na lang ako. Bakit ko nga ba naging kaibigan to. She was the exact opposite of me when it comes to personality. Sa pag-aaral lang ata kami nagkakasundo neto eh.

Pagpasok namin sa classroom, medyo natahimik sila. Bakit? Hello it's Montealto and Aragon are in the house. Kahit na lakas trip nung si Chloe, parehong kaming dean's list in gold category. Beauty and brain kumbaga. 

"I saw your tv ad Becca. Grabe ang ganda mo dun."

"Yeah. And you were super hot wearing those clothes on."

"Ikaw din Chloe. Grabe I can't beleive you're that sexy."

"I want to be like you."

Todo ngisi naman si Chloe at nakipagchika siya dun sa mga babaeng pumuri sa kanya. Siya kasi yung friendly type na tao. At ako ang kabaliktaran niya. Dumeretcho na ako sa likuran kasi dun ang gusto kong upuan. Tahimik eh at pwede pang matulog in case boredom strikes.

Ilang saglit pa ay pumasok na yung Prof namin kasama si Dean kasama yung mga transferees. Nagtwinkle naman ang mga mata ng mga girls dito sa room but that excludes me.

"So class, you have a new classmates. Be good to them." Ani nung Dean namin.

"Introduce yourselves gentlemen." Utos ng Prof. namin.

Naunang pumunta sa harap yung naka-smile. 

"Hi Girls. I'm Matt Anderson." sabay wink. Yung mga babae naman namin dito sa room nagpapaypa sa hot daw. 

Me: Roll eyes

"I'm Kurt Evans. Nice to meet you." Ito naman mukhang serious type/genius. Ang mga girls naman parang naiihi sa kilig. Juice colored.

"Keiron Montereal." Oh? See The Guy I've kiss. Gwapo nga siya pero mas way too handsome yung isa.

"Luke Kendrick" Then balik sa poker face. Tumili ang mga babae sa kay Luke. Kung kanina kina Matt is 10X ang power, kay Luke full force na. I can't blame him, ang gwapo eh.

I was looking at his way then timing namang napatingin din siya sa side ko. My god. Napahawak ako sa puso ko. Shit ito ba yung sinasabi nilang like at first sight. Nganga. Ang manly pa ng boses. Naiimagine ko tuloy na may abs siyang nakatago sa shirt niya. 

"Miss Montealto are you listening? Kanina pa ako nagtatanong." tanong nung Prof namin. 

I look at Chloe then she mouthed 'ang gwapo anoo. Na starstruck ka'. And I was like WHAT THE FUCK!

"Sorry I'm not listening Sir. What is it again?" I asked politely.

"I asked if that seats right next to you are vacant."

"Yes."

"Okay. The four of you may sit right next to Miss Montealto."

Tumahimik na lang ako. Nakakahiya kanina. Baka nakatingin ako kay Luke. Baka sabihin nila... Urghhhhh. Napabuntong hininga naman ako.

"You alright?" napatingin ako sa gilid ko and I saw Keiron is asking me.

"Yeah." I answered in monotone.

So bale ganito ang sitting arrangement namin.

Chloe - Ako - Keiron - Luke - Kurt - Matt 

"I'm Keiron. I believe we've met at the veranda." he said.

"Yeah." 

"You are?"

"Becca." I said in a bored tone. Bakit ba? Trip ko eh and I saw Luke na nakatingin eh.

"Nice name."

I didn't answer back. Feeling close lang? Naisip ko naman itong si Luke. Talagang hindi siya palasalita. My ideal type of a guy. But feeling ko babaero to, he got that god like features like he came down from Mt. Olympus and the looks that nobody could resist. Well except me, maybe I am attractive to his physical looks but not totally I'm gonna go crazy over him.

"Lalim ng iniisip mo teh." Sabi ni Chloe.

"Just shut up."

"Ang gwapo ng katabi mo." with matching hawak sa kanyang kamay na parang naiihi sa kilig. Girls this days. Tapos napatitig siya sakin na parang may umilaw sa brain niya.

Alam kong titig ni Chloe na yan. May binabalak na naman to panigurado. 

"Stop it." I hissed.

"What?" Tinanong niya ako with matching taas kilay effect. NO ORIGINALITY. THAT WAS MY SIGNATURE LOOK.

"Don't stare at me like that like you have something evil plan to do. I know you Chloe Aragon."

Napangisi lang naman si Chloe. Hayyy di ko talaga maintindihan ang utak neto eh.

"Easy there bestfriend. Wala pa akong pinaplano okay." 

The thing is wala pa. Hayyyys. Maybe I'll stop overreacting for now. Just act like normal like I used to be. Yeahhhh.
