NOPI Chapter 53

Sephine's POV

After Charles' birthday just as we all had expected, we had no time to bond with each other. But still we had a group chat where we could chat and greet each other. In the evenings, if we were lucky, we would go out for dinner together and of course, magsisibalikan din kaagad sa mga dorm rooms namin at mga assigned places.

Charles' on the other hand would send me messages early every morning to wish me a good morning and tell me to have a good day. I tried waking up earlier and earlier, but no matter how early I woke I didn't manage to beat him and send a message first. Nagtataka nga ako pero after ng tatlong araw ay tinanong ko na siya. I was so mad when I found out that he actually hasn't slept for three days! Just what the hell is wrong with him?

Of course, nung hindi ko siya nireplyan for almost a day, nagpadala siya ng flowers at dinner sa dorm room together with a letter telling that he's sorry and that he wants to see me. Dahil ayoko parin siyang kausapin ay natulog na ako't hindi na nakipagkita sakanya.

Pagkagising ko naman in the morning ay nagayos na ako kaagad at agad na lumabas ng dorm. It's Saturday, and today I decided to meet Charles.

Nagdala na ako ng mga iistudyhan ko't dumiretso na sa Music Room. Hindi ko alam kung anong ginawa nila pero naging private room na namin ang music room 2. Hahaha.

You really can't deny their influence to the school. No one even dares to come in here anymore and besides, there are guards guarding the perimeters of the school.

I guess they also requested for it. Damn rich kids.

Pagkadating ko dun ay nabigla ako dahil nandun si Charles pati narin ang ibang mga boys.

Pagkakita palang sa akin ni Charles ay ngumiti na siya kaagad at tumakbo papunta sa akin.

"Seph," sabi niya't kinuha na ang bag na dala dala ko pero hindi ko siya sinagot at tinignan lang

Nang mapansin niyang hindi ko siya sinagot ay napaubo na siya't hinawakan ang kamay ko.

"I'm sorry"

I pursed my lips and stared at his face. Nang makita ko ang eye bags niya't tired looking face, my heart ached.

"Just what were you doing?" tanong ko kaya naman napakamot na siya sa batok niya gamit ang free niyang kamay

"Something regarding the company," sagot niya kaya naman bumugtong hininga na ako

"Fine," malamya kong sagot kaya naman agad na siyang napa-pout

"Come on. I missed you. It's done. Everything's done. I can take a rest already. I promise"

Hindi ko na siya sinagot at nilampasan na pero dahil hawak hawak niya pa ang kamay ko ay madali niya lang akong pinigilan at pinaharap sakanya.

"Wait, ang sintas mo, Seph" sabi niya kaya naman tinignan ko ang shoes ko

Ah, natanggal?

"Sorry. Teka lang" sagot ko't luluhod na sana pero nauna niya na ako't sinimulan nang itali ito

"I'll tie it for you,"

"No, it's fine. I can do it"

"Ako na. Mahirap na, baka mahulog ka pa sa iba" sabi niya kaya naman napapout na ako't hindi na sumagot

Ang galing niya talaga pagdating sa mga ganitong klaseng bagay. Tsk.

After niyang itali ang sintas ko ay tumayo na siya kaagad at hinawakan ulit ang kamay ko.
