"Haler. Tulala ang beauty mo diyan." Winagayway pa ni Philip ang kamay niya sa harapan ng mukha ko.
Bigla naman akong napatingin sa kanya na nanlalaki ang mga mata.
"What?" I asked in confusion.
"What? What-whatin ko iyang fezlalu mo, you want?" Mataray na sagot nito.
"Te, your body is here, but your mind is floating else where," singit ni Kaye.
"Yeah. I noticed that in our class a while ago. You were not paying attention," sabi ni Cess na may halong pagtataka.
"What's with you?" Tanong ulit ni Philip.
"I'm okay. It's just that...that I'm tired these past days. Okay?" Sabay iwas ko ng tingin sa kanila.
Binigyan naman nila ako ng nang-uusig na tingin. After a minute, they just shrugged.
Hay. Thank you, Lord. They didn't push me to answer their questions.
"So, where are we sisterettes?" Tanong ni Philip kina Kaye at Cess.
"About doon sa new boylalu mo sa class na tumatakbo tuwing nakikita ka," sagot ni Kaye.
"Right. So ayon nga. Tumatakbo siya tuwing nakikita ako. What do you think, sisters? Does that mean he likes me, too?" Excited na tanong ni Philip.
"I doubt it," said Cess.
"At bakit ha?" Nakataas ang kilay na sabi ni Philip.
"Haller. Hindi ba malinaw sa'yo na takot siya sa'yo kaya siya tumatakbo?" Sabi naman ni Kaye.
"What? No. Gusto niya ako. Obvious iyon. Natataranta at nahihiya siya sa akin. Ibig sabihin ng mga ganoong kilos, hindi siya mapakali pagmalapit ako sa kanya kasi nga gusto niya ako. Da hell. Manood nga kayo ng mga movies." Pagpupumilit ni Philip.
I rolled my eyes. Hinayaan ko na lang silang magtalong tatlo. I still have other things in mind than to pay attention to their conversation.
I sighed. Grabe. I can't believe what happened last Sunday night. I mean, maygad! I didn't expect him to say that.
*flashback*
"Pinakamagandang dyosa sa balat ng lupa," seryosong sabi niya ulit sa mga salitang iyan.
"What?"
"One thing is for sure. There is something permanent in this world for me. Remember this. I...I'll never...I'll never gonna stop falling in love with you."
