•His Stare 03•
🖤
I was taken a back by how he responsed or maybe I was seeing things? Or maybe this is just so big deal? Or I'm just putting meaning to it? Ano bang bago, eh suplado naman talaga 'yun.
"Are you okay?" napatingin ako kay Glenn at nagtagal ang tingin ko sa kaniya. When I realized that I stared too much, binawi ko ang mga mata ko sa paninitig sa kaniya.
"Yeah, sure," mahinang sagot ko.
"I'm sorry about our classmates, you know-"
"It's okay. I'm kinda used to it, through the years, Glenn."
He just smiled. He's a great person, maybe that's the reason na hindi ko siya magustuhan. Someone like Lorenzo, Eliz? 'Yung suplado at hindi ka pinapansin? Palagi ka pang sinasaktan? 'Yan ang gusto mo?
I'm shaking my head to shake the thoughts away. Even my inner self was contradicting me now. Wala na yata akong kakampi.
"Why are you called to guidance office, by the way?" I asked to divert my thoughts.
"Ahmm," alanganing sagot niya habang kinakamot ang batok. "I'm late. First period in the morning."
"Ah..." I shortly answered. Paano ba naman kasi, hindi ko napansin.
The moment we entered, Ms. Jabello eyed us suspiciously, looked at us with malice then she cleared her throat.
"Thank you for this, Eliz," she sweetly said to me but the smirk on her face, teasing me was so evident. I am close to my teachers and they talked about me a lot. Basically, my love life.
"And to you Mr. Lim," sabi niya. "This is just your first time, kaya just a warning. Please be early next time."
"Thank you, Ma'am."
"Thanks."
"You're welcome to the both of you," sounded like "I'm happy for the both if you"
We're about to leave when the door swung open. And the gorgeous face of Dremende welcomed my heart and the quick response, he made it pound so bad.
Seems like he's in a hurry. Tumaas ang isang kilay ko. He looked at the person beside me at bumalik sa pagkasuplado ang mukha niya.
"Why are you here, Mr. Dremende? Need anything?"
"No ma'am, I just lost my pen. I thought it's here," he cooly answered.
While me and Ms. Jabello have our forehead creased, ang layo ng guidance office sa classroom nila para dito mawala!
"You never came here, bakit dito mawawala?" tanong ni Ma'am.
He just shrugged his shoulder at licked his lower lip. Then he seriously looked at me.
Nakataas pa rin ang isang kilay ko pero hinay-hinay itong bumababa. I remembered what he said a while ago. Confront me, that he'll never like me.
