I Fell In Love With You: Book 1

c h a p t e r 19

I'M IN SERIOUS TROUBLE!!!

Hindi ako makapag salita, sinusubukan ko at nang binitawan ako ni Aidan siya ay napalayo.

"Patawad, dahil umiwas sakin yung gusto ko" Sabi niya

'Pinagtagpo pero hindi itinadhana'

"Ganito pala ang sinasabi nilang 'Pinagtagpo pero hindi itinadhana'"

Hindi ko kayang makita siya na ganito, meron palang ibang gusto at nasaktan ng sobra sobra.

So tumayo ako at lumabas ng pinto, hindi ko tiningan o pinakinggan siya.

Julian's P.O.V

"Left, left, then right, turn and pose." Leo, my choreographer said.

As I dance with the song 'Way back home' by Shaun I remember Emilia, her smile and how she looks and our childhood memories.

"Julian! Focus!" Choreographer shouted.

I tripped over my own feet and fell in the floor and choreographer helped me up.

I realized that I was doing the wrong steps and wasn't following the beat of the music.

"All right we wrap it up here Julian, bukas nalang yung iba and please naman.. focus on the beat and steps" choreographer said patting me in the back.

Leaving me with my bagpack and myself.

"Lian?"

That was my first nickname that came from Emmy at it was familiar and yet
The voice was weak and sounded very sad, I looked to the door which was in my left side and saw Emmy.

"Why are you crying? Sino nagsaktan sayo?" Tanong ko papalapit sa kanya at niyayakap ng mahigpit.

"I'm okay Julian" sabi niya at ngumiti.

Hindi ngiti ng saya, pero ngiti ng lungkot at pakukungwari.

And then it hit me,

Me and Emmy's childhood song we used to sing when were trying to make each other happy.

So I went to the speaker and my phone in the bench and played the song.

The background music starts,

"I saw you
With that ribbon in your hair
Think that I began to stare
Maybe, I love you, For awhile"

Forming a heart in my hands and trying to look cute and

I tripped over my feet.

She laughed, smiling at me.

I stood up, and continued,

"A stranger, at a table in a place
And that really pretty face
I wonder what happens when you smile"

And I walked to her and then leaned in

She blushed red, and I smiled she look away.

I stopped leaning in and went to the middle of the room.

"I might never be your 'hero'
Never been 'one' to fight
That don't mean that
I can't be your Valentine"

"I won't be your savior either
Couldn't even if I tried
But I think I can be 'Someone you like'"

We both sing, I smiled and held her hand while dancing.

We turned left left then right and I turned her around and pose which was we looking at each other

"Someone You Like."

She laughed and smiled,

"Yan ang ngiti na gusto ko makita sayo" sabi ko at nag blush siya,

"So uhmm.. Julia-"

*Crash!*

Nang marinig iyon mabilis na pagtakbo namin ni Emilia palabas,

Emilia's P.O.V

"So uhmm.. Julia-" dapat na maysasabihin,

*Crash*

Nang marinig iyon bilis na pagtakbo namin,

Nang makita ko sa corridor si Aidan at Francisco.

"Hindi mo ba matanggap na ayaw ka niya!" Sigaw ni Francisco sabay suntok sa mukha ni Aidan.

Sa galit ay nasuntok rin ni Aidan si Francisco sa mukha.

Hawak ni Julian ang aking kamay at ako'y bumitaw

"Sorry." sabi ko at sabay takbo papunta kay Aidan.

"Aidan, tumigil ka!" Sigaw ko at huminto siya at napatingin sa akin.

"Please." huling salita ko.

Pumunta sakin si Aidan at sabay hatak sa aking kamay papalayo sa mga tao sa paligid,

~School Campus Garden~

Nakaupo sa bench, at nananahimik kami hindi makapag salita.

"Sino yung umiwas sayo? Please sabihin mo sakin para maayos ko t-" sabi ko at napahinto

"Ikaw." Sabi niya nang seryoso at lamig sa boses.

"Hindi naman kita iniiwas Aidan! Pero bakit ka nagkakaganito? Hindi ikaw yung taong nakilala ko na mapagbiro," sabi ko at tumayo sa upuan at tumayo sa kanyang harapan

"..." hindi siya sumagot.

"Kung ayaw mo matulungan sige Aidan aalis na ako!" Sigaw ko,

Isang technique ko para mapapaamin ang tao.

Nagkunwari ako na aalis nang biglaang nahatak ako at napayakap siya sa likod ko.

"Sige iwanan mo na ako basta hayaan mong yakapin kita ngayon. Sapat na yon, alam mo ba kung bakit? It's because I Fell In Love With You."
