CHAPTER 20
Seri's POV
The moment I never knew would actually happen to someone with Androphobia. Being afraid of a guy is already something I couldn't imagine. Every day I'm getting used to it. I already accepted in myself that I can't meet a guy to love. Not even see them, touch them or kiss them.
This happened to me before when I was young. After all those tragic past, those feelings are all gone. It was all replaced by fear and anxiety.
My heart races as if I drank a liter of coffee. It's like all my blood is rushing to my face and make everything red. Exactly those feeling is happening to me now. And it is because of one guy. He made me realize that it's not impossible to be happy again.
I still couldn't believe that we kissed. Uhm, let me rephrase it. He kissed me. Yes, that guy whose my friend Jinx is dying for. Everyone's dream is happening to me when it's not even my dream. Not my dream but I started to like him recently. He gave me comfort like nobody else can. I wish that was all sincere.
"Seri ok ka lang? Masama ba pakiramdam mo?Namumula yung pisngi mo", I came back to my senses nang magsalita si Sheen sa tabi ko. Nasa classroom ako ngayon habang naghihintay sa teacher naming late at mukhang wala nang planong pumasok. Agad ko din namang tinignan ang reflection ko sa phone. And yeah, namumula nga ako.
"Ah hindi, makapal lang blush-on ko.", I lied. Mukhang naniwala din naman siya at nagpatuloy sa binabasa nito.
Masyado kong iniisip ang mga pangyayari kagabi kasama si Jay. I am not dreaming. The blindfold. videoke, shopping and the kiss. All of it really happened last night. Maybe I should thank Junjun for this. Kung hindi niya ako nasama sa meeting niya, edi wala pa rin akong jowa ngayon.
Teka, are we really dating? We just kissed but we didn't confess that we like each other right? Pero ganun na din yun diba? Bakit niya ako hahalikan kung hindi niya ako gusto?
Kinuha ko phone ko saka inopen ko ang convo namin ni Jay. Should I text him to confirm?
/Are we dating?/
*delete*
That was too straightforward.
/About last night... Does it have a meaning?/
*delete*
Too awkward. Hayyss nevermind.
Ilalagay ko na phone ko sa desk nang magvibrate ito.
/Good morning :) /
Tinignan ko ang message kung kanino nanggaling. Bigla akong kinilig dahil kay Jay galing iyon. Medyo natawa pa ako dahil 'gummy' yung nakalagay na pangalan.
/Good morning. Thank you again last night./ I replied. Ilang beses na ata akong nagpathank you sa kanya. Eh sa wala akong maidugtong.
Nireplyan niya lang ako ng heart emoji. Hindi na ako nag reply pa dahil mukhang busy siya ngayon kasi bukas na yung concert. Maaga pa ngang umalis si Junjun kanina para sa rehearsal.
*bang*
Napatingin kaming lahat sa kung sino ang pumasok sa classroom dahil napakalakas nang paghampas niya sa pinto. Nagulat ako nang pumasok si Jinx na natataranta at mukhang may hinahanap siya. Tinaas ko kamay ko dahil akala ko kami yung hinahanap niya. Tumingin din siya sa amin pero mukhang iba ang hinahanap niya.
Tumungo siya sa kinauupuan ni Jei Sue.
"Nasan si Jennifer?", natatarantang tanong ni Jinx kay Jei Sue.
