A Taglish Gay Romance Story: Tadhana is a Playful-Painful Thing

I.

Let's Start the story where we skip Grade 7 and 8 and start with Grade 9.

It's sunday and I got ready for I will go to the dorm again. I stay in the school dorm during weekdays/classdays whilst I stay at home during weekends/no class days. It sucks dahil ako lang naman ang malayo sa school namin ni Chase, one block away lang ang bahay nila ee. So I texted him to make dalaw mi there in the dorm (lol conyo language) para maka spend time kami -palagi nalang yun. As I arrived there andun na rin agad si Chase at the dorm nagdala na rin ng fave foods namin, alam na alam niyang mas malaki pa'ng appetite ko sa kanya so kabahan na kayo sa payat na malaking kain. At the same time some of my dorm mates were already there too, we were all four roomates in each room in the dorm, so I told them na dito muna mag stay si Chase at ayun tamang timing maglalaro na nga sila nang basketball so the room's all ours.

Chase: So ano plano? May dala pala akong research ko na kailangan ko talaga tulong mo. 😭 -sabay abot nya sa akin*

Me: Ano nga pala kulang neto? Akala ko natapos nato ah? Tinulungan ka naman nang kaklase mo diba? -at the same time kumain ng piatos*

Chase: Natapos nga pero pagpass ko pauulitin daw dahil medyo broad yung topic, hays. 😩

Me: Oh sge na, ako na bahala neto, kaylan deadline?

Chase: Yus! Ikaw talaga! Next week pa lang naman, ihanda ko muna laptop ko, nood tayo '2 cool to be forgotten' kabagobago lang to na download ng ate ko.

Me: Ay hala! Tologo? San niya nadownload? 😍

Chase: She won't tell. 😒 Pero, by the way salamat talaga dahil you saved my life for the third time this month. 😊

Me: Eh 😒 Wala yun, basta may foods ah? Tehehehe.

Chase: Palagi lng naman ee. 😒

Me: *smirks*

We both watched the movie and ended up exactly dinner time, he insisted that I should come by to his place and insisted I'd eat dinner there, well siyempre how can I decline the invitation? Alam na alam ko'ng mas rich-kid itong Chase na'to pa-humble lang kasi, halos araw-araw masarap ulam nila. So I went back to the dorm almost 8PM and did all my homeworks due tomorrow and half-bathed. Before I was about to go to bed, one of my roommates; Dylan asked me how was Chase. Hmm feeling ko bet nya bff ko. I told him he was fine and still training for their volleyball tournament next week. I asked him if he was gonna watch the game and a flush of red on his face he said "Oo, idol ko yun sa volley ee, even tho mas famous pa yung team-captain nila". Yes he was actually intersted ni bff, so I'm gonna keep my eyes on him.

Yay, Monday, the first day of 'hell-week' (put some sarcasm on those first two words) I got up from bed and got ready; naligo, nagbihis, nagapply ng hair wax at konting pabango (it was jhonson's baby cologne and for me it was not girly to use it but I prefer 'childish') grabbed my bag and headed to the canteen where free breakfast was served for the boarders. The dorm was inside the school campus, and we had separate canteens for the dorm and the school. Did I mention our school only have Highschool and College Students? Well you should know. I then saw my crush, he was one of the boarders and sobrang gwapo nya, the type of guy na gentleman, maputi at mas malayo pa sa height nang 5'3 (my height 😒). Shoot everytime lumingon siya sa akin napapa-blush ako, hindi niya dapat makita na para akong kamatis. He knows naman already na crush ko siya, Xavier pala pangalan niya, baseball player yun, code name namin ni Chase sa knya ay Vaxie, ultimate crush ko talaga siya 😍 pero kaso, naghahambog lng, nakaka turn-off lng naman ee. Ayun naman yung mga other gay-peeps na lumandi sa crush ko. Hays, hanggang tingin nalang ako dito. Makapagtapos na nga lang kumain. I then brushed my teeth sa may outdoor sink, I saw my geek-nerd straight friends, but they're not just all geek-nerded too, they're also hot, simply hot, like how would a normal girl describe a guy. They greeted me first and I greeted them with a wave holding my toothbrush at the same time smiling. After that I then went to my classroom and placed my things there. It was still empty since it's still early, so I still have time to relax and enjoy the silence for a while -char. And then came this jerk of a classmate Angelo, sure he was also gwapo, type ko nga, pero mayabang, and flirty to the point na he's already teasing me, but sometimes sweet and gentleman kapag wala na ako sa mood, seatmate nga pala kami ee 😒. He was actually my bully back in grade 7, and then stopped so suddenly, then just playfully teased me, not in a mean way, but in a flirty way. If any gay-peep would want this kind of guy, please, feel free to take my place, I would cringe at the feeling that your classmate was once your bully and now he's just being sweet and playful and flirtful to you. Anyway he then placed his things at his desk, then greeted me with his 'oh-so-charming' grin and then seated next to me, he seated on the chair in which the chair's back was faced beside me, placing both his arms above the chair's head and his chin above his arm on top of the chair-head, staring at me, just plainly staring at me like he was dreaming, like he always does. I then snapped "Huy, ayan ka nanaman sa bisyo mo, magsiupo ka nga ng maayos", He then replied "Ano ka ba, can't you see I'm enjoying the view?", "Anong view? wla naman akong masyadong nakitang magandang view dito ee" I added, "Yun nga, walang ibang magandang view dito dahil ikaw lang ang magandang view na ini-enjoy ko" He then added. Ayan na naman siya, flirty na naman. "Hays, Angelo ano ka ba, nambobola pero hindi naman nagsineryoso, makapag bisita na nga lang ng ibang classroom" Alam ko nilalaroan nya ako, so I decided to check Chase in his classroom if nandun na ba siya, and for me to stop listening to his corny lines before ma fall na ako (hopeless romantic kasi ee, NBSB 😒).
