"Hi guys, I hope we get along well" Kevin
"Kevin you may take your set" sabi nung teacher namin na biglang bumait.
He seated sa tabi ko sa may left side. Napansin ko ang matatalas na titig na aking mga bakla at babaeng kaklase na animoy matulis na kutsilyong tutusok sa akin. Grabe ha?
Inggit lang kayo mga inggiterong palaka! I wish masabi ko yan but no. This guy is my worst nightmare, I don't want to look at him.
Ayoko makita mukha niya kaya sinubsob ko na lang ulit sa armchair yung mukha ko.
"Hey, hindi kita nakita kanina ah"
Ako ba kausap nito? Ang kapal ng mukha!!!
"Hey" sabay pindot niya sa balikat ko
Tumingin ako sa kanya, "PO!?" Wala sa isip kong ssgot
Sobrang lakas yata, kasi napatigil lahat at napatingin sakin.
"Ang galang mo naman, feeling ko ang tanda ko na" sabay tawa niya. Wow presko ha, close tayo?
I'm taking Economics and I don't why we are at the same school taking the same course and unfortunately we are classmate in this subject. Sana itong subject lang na ito. I can't bare to always see his face. It's a torment.
I can feel that his looking at me. I can't even say that he's here because of me.
Binaliwala ko siya at sumubsob ako sa armchair, thinking about the past. Malapit na sana mag-heal eh, sabi nila, time heals all wounds, pero bakit parang bumalik na naman? Yung sugat biglang nagbukas, naalala ko yung times that Kevin and I spent together. I wish it was real it was all real, sana hindi ganito kasakit.
During high school years, I'm a loner, my books are my friends, I never speak to anyone, except they ask me but limited to matters about subject and school matters.
Other than that, hindi ko sila sinasagot. I stayed at the library all the time. Isa akong bahay -paaralan, paaralan-bahay na teenager.
One day Kevin approach me, the campus crush during my highschool years, he was a total hottie. Yes, I love my books pero tao din ako, my atay, utak, lalamunan, mata at higit sa lahat puso.
Yes, he was my crush, pero pakipot ako, he kept approaching me, everyday. Sinubukan kong iwasan siya, dahil hindi kapanipaniwala na isang campus crush ay lumalapit sa akin. I'm just a geek, a bookworm and simple.
One day, I opened up for him, yes, I open my heart. It was a beautiful sunday night, summer vacation on my Junior years in highschool, our section set up an outing at sa hindi inaasahan ay napapayag niya akong sumama.
Habang nakatayo sa baybayin at nakatingin sa dagat, bigla siyang lumapit, were talking about things, suddenly he kissed me, on the lips saying, he likes me.
I was so shocked, but thinking it was real I told him he was my crush for a long time. He hugged me!
I was very happy!!
Then reality hit me! His friends came out holding a camera, shouting telling Kevin he won and then I look at him, asking for answers.
There were none. Except the words "sorry".
I tried to suppressed my tears! I know this was a game, and I was a piece to make this game more exciting.
I was crying, taking my bags, I went to a different resort and stayed there, spent my night crying my heart out.
" Sum?! , Sum?" May kumalabit sa balikat ko
Napaangat ako "Huh" napatingin ako sa kanya, it was Carrie.
"Are you okay?"
"Yeah, antok lang talaga ako, nanood ako K-drama kagabi eh"
"Let's go, baka andun na yung prof"
"Oh yeah, another major subject"
Tumayo kami at lumipat ng room
The professor came, "Before everything else let me introduced your new classmate please stand up Mr. Kevin Legaspi"
Tumayo siya, everyone clapped except me.
"There is another one , please come in Mr. Quinn Johnson"
What?
Quinn? As in QUINN?
