UAAP Season 74, elimination round…
We will be playing against the FEU Lady Tamaraws for the 2nd game. Earlier, NU Lady Bulldogs lost to UST Lady Tigresses in 3 straight sets. I saw Aiko as we were doing some stretches at the dug out.
“Aiks, I missed you!”, I said giving her a tight hug. Matagal tagal din kaming di nagkita ng batang ito. Super hectic kasi ng sked. She is sporting a much shorter hair and bagay nya. She looks cuter. Tiyak maraming magkakacrush dito sa alaga kong to.
“Grabe, Yeye! Miss na din kita. Sabi nga ni tita Baby mas madalas pa nga ata akong umuuwi sa bahay mo kesa sa ‘yo.” She answered as she lifted me up and gave me a swirl.
“Uyyy… Ang sweet naman nyo! Baka naman gusto mong pakilala sa amin ang cute na kayakap mo, Mikang, ” nanunuksong singit ni Cienne.
“Malisyosa ka talaga, Cienne! Haha!” Agad ko namang sagot. “Guys, I would like you to meet my dearest friend, Aiko Urdas. Maglalaro sya for NU next season. Aiks, meet the bullies. Si Cienne, kambal nya si Camille, Si Carol, Ate Kim, and roommate ko, si Ara,” they shook hands after I introduced them. Was it just me or tiningnan ni Tomsy si Aiko mula ulo hanggang paa. So very UN-Ara. Sobrang serious na face. This isn’t our first game. Alam ko di naman ganyan ang game face nya. Di naman masama gising nito at kanina nakikipagharutan naman sa akin sa bus. Maybe it’s that time of the month. Ang sungit talaga ng itsura. Pero nag-uumapaw pa rin sa cuteness. Landi lang, Mika.
“Ang taas mo, girl. Middle ka rin ba katulad ni, Yeye?”,tanong ni Camille.
“Ay, di po. Utility/open spiker po maging position ko. Si ate Dindin po ang maging middle namin next year”, sagot ni Aiko.
“Dindin? As in Dindin Santiago? Di bas a UST sya naglalaro. Teammate ko sya dati sa UST High Shool varsity eh”, ate Kim asking for some clarification.
“Nagtransfer po sya sa NU this school year. Pero next year pa sya maglaro for the team kasi since transferee, required mag 1-year residency bago makapaglaro”, paliwanag naman ni Aiko.
“Naglaro na sya last season for UST. Sya yun yung mataas, di ba Ate Kim. Magaling yun. Nagtaka nga ako at at si ate Mowki ang nagging ROY last year at di sya.”, tanong ni Carol na tinanguan naman ni Ate Kim.
“Si Ara pala makakatapat mo sa amin. Hala ka Ara. Ang taas ng makakatapat mo next year, o.Laki pa ng katawan..” Tamo tong si Cienne at tinakot pa si Tomsy. Di ba sya natatakot sa sungit vibe nito? Tsk!
“We’ll see. Ang alam ko, wala sa height at laki ng katawan ‘yan,” sagot ni Tomsy na ikinataas ng kilay ko.
“At sineryoso mo talaga ang pagbibiro ni Cienne. Ang sungit mo, Tomsy!” Di ko na napigilan ang bibig ko. Wala naman kasing ginagawa sa kanya si Aiko. Tapos susungitan niya. Hmph!
“Tama na ang tsismisan. Pasok na tayo sa court. Let’s win this, girls!”, sigaw ni ate Aby.
“Aiks, will I see you after the game?”, I asked my Super Saiyan
“Definitely! I will cheer for you. So you better win this. Otherwise, lilibre mo ko. Haha!”, she added laughing.
“Excuse me!”, singit ni Tomsy sabay daan sa gitna namin. Ugali talaga nito today… ASAL! Hayst!
“Selos!”, paubong sabi ni ate Kim sabay tawa.
ANO DAW?!!!!!
