Pag Mulat

XIII. The Unfortunate Soul

Author's Note: Hi guys! Sana na eenjoy niyo tong work of art ko. Continue reading and supporting me please! Thank you :)

Sabi ni Jennifer Lawrence, she doesn't believe in soulmates and afterlife. Di niya ba naiisip yung mga taong walang ka pair sa buhay? At kung pati afterlife wala, di na rin nila mahahanap yung soulmate nila sa next life nila. Gusto ko tuloy maluha for those unfortunate souls. Why would you cancel out that possibility instead of giving someone hope for it?

"Oh by the way, you should always carry an umbrella with you. Maulan na ngayon. That's all, bye class." Napaangat ako ng tingin, at nakitang papalabas na si sir Kiko, yung prof naming bata pa at crush na crush ng classmates ko.

"Line, mauuna na kami, gagawa kami ng project. Malas ko, kami pa magkapair nito e." Sunod sunod na sabi ni Kenzie, katabing nakatayo nito si Maco na ang laki ng ngiti.

"Feeling ko di yan bad luck. Destiny tawag dyan." Sabe ko kay Kenzie. Kinindatan ako ni Maco at inapiran ko naman ito. "Aigoo!" Binatukan ako ni Kenzie.

"Ikaw ang bad luck, sayo natapat yung individual. Bat kasi ayaw pa ni sir Kiko na tatluhan tayo e." Sabi ni Kenzie. See? Pano yung mga walang ka pair! Bat kasi 51 kami tapos ako yung 1. Ugh!

"Kayang kaya ko na yun. Ako pa ba?" I said.

"Kristan, please please." Pag mamakaawa ko.

"Nope." I found him hanging out at the field.

"Ayokong maging unfortunate soul." Sabi ko pa.

"Ano bang sinasabi mo?" Inis na tanong nito. He tried focusing on his sketch.

"Yung mga unfortunate soul, yung walang soulmate." Parang batang sabi ko.

"There is nothing as such." Nakairap na sabi nito. Nanlaki ang mata ko at di ako makapaniwalang di siya naniniwala sa ganun! Baka silang dalawa ni Jennifer Lawrence ang soulmates.

"Please Kristan, be my partner. This is for academic purposes. Kailangan ng documentation ng couple, dating life, engagement, tapos married life. Kunwari lang naman e." Sabe ko pa dito. Marriage and family kasi yung subject namin and gusto ng prof namin na matuto kaming mag plan for reality. See, kaya ayaw ni Sir Kiko na tatluhan sa isang group.

"That's a lot. Are you sure project yan?" Tanong nito. Tumango tango ako. "Hmm. How about no." Sabe niya pa rin.

"Say I do." Pamimilit ko pa rin.

"I don't."

"You don't have to do a lot. Pictures lang! I'll do the paperworks and everything, just your presence is enough, and a little bit of cooperation please. Hehe." Tumingin ito sakin tapos umiling.

"I can cooperate!" Someone towered over us while sitting on the field. Inangat namin ang tingin namin ni Kristan and we saw Ice wearing his jersey. His muscular arms are out today in training, pawis na pawis ito at may bandana sa ulo para sa mahaba na niyang buhok. "What, I just heard cooperate, I'm willing. Anong meron?" Kumunot ang noo ni Kristan at bumalik ito sa pag guhit.

"Well, kailangan ko kasi ng karapartner for marriage and family." Nahihiyang sabe ko.

"Ayan ba yung may kasal kasal pa kunwari?" Natatawang sabe ni Ice.

"See! Di ako nag iimbento." I tapped Kristan's shoulder. Hindi ako pinansin nito.

"I can be your partner if you want." Sabe ni Ice. Kristan snapped his head towards us, napaisip naman ako. Kristan is watching my every move and I don't want him to think that I am lying, kahit pa sa totoo lang I really want him to take the part.
