Meeting Him Again (TOPS Series #1)

Untitled Part 37

I hate him, why is he making me feel this way. Like, palagi nalang bang Sophie over me? Hello, I'm the best frien--childhood friend? HARGH!! nabubwisit ako. Bat ba sya ganyan? Pero buti nalang, he is slowly turning back to normal kesa nong nasa baguio, medjo abnormal padin kasi andito Sophie.

" Ano Andie, sabay ka na?" Tanong n Jill habang nag-aayos sila ni Ally ng ganit.

" Ah.. actually, pupunta ako SP room e" I saw Ally's lips forming a shy smile.

" Akala ko ba, no need to force yourself kasi wala ka namang work and you can come kung may time ka?" Ally is teasing me with VJ's words kanina. Those cold words.

"Hay nako umuwi na nga kayo!" I immediately leave the room, baka kasi kulitin pa nila ako. i'm on my way to SP room, at nilalabas ko na yung laptop ko from my bag, medyo malapit na din kasi ako. From here, I can see na may dalawang babaeng kausap si VJ sa labas ng SP room. They seemed familiar, lower year? naka star uniform din e. Kita ko ding may inabot na paper bag kay Ray at nagpicture pa sila nong isang babae.

Sinasama ako ng timpla dito.

Pumasok na si Ray at di naman nagtagal, nakapasok nadin ako.

Nakita ko yung paper bag sa tabi nya, may dinner meal at chocolates. What's that about? Napakunot ang noo ko sa nakita ko. Si Vj naman, naka focus lang sa laptop nya, hindi nya yata ako napansin na pumasok, ala na din kasi yung ibang staffs, since sabi nga ni Vj wala naman daw masyadong gawain.

Nakaisip naman ako ng gagawin ko para mapansin nya ko. Tinext to sya

To: VJ Ray

You going home?

I saw his phone from his side beeped, kita ko din na kinuha nya ito at nagtype sya pero tinigil nya din ito agad at nilapag pailalim ang phone nya.

My heart pounded.

Why is he doing this?

Out of nowhere, I walk and sit his front. Natatakpan ng laptop nya ang mukha nya, pero nakita kong tumingin sya sakin saglit and he is disturbed by my presence. Siguro kinakabahan sya dahil di nya alam na nakita ko yung ginawa nya. He just ignore me. This is not so him.

" Ano yan?" I'm talking about the paper bag, though nakita ko naman na yung laman, just to start a convo.

" Ah, dinner and chocolates.. you can eat that if you want." He plainly said, not looking to me and he just continue what he is doing.

" From who?"

" Lower years"

"Don't tell me na galing din sa kanila yung mga binibigay mo sakin?"

" No, don't worry." HE IS IRRITATING! WHY IS HE NOT LOOKING AT ME?

" Why did they do that?"

"I don't know, they always do that."

Andami nya pala talagang admirers no, yet he focused on someone like me, why?

" You like that? Bat di mo nalang itapon?" Walang preno kong sinabi.

"Yah.. I mean, I appreciate.." He looked at me, I caught him and he look back again to his laptop. "efforts."

" Why did you took a photo together?" I softly said. I did not even know why I asked that.

" Why are you asking?"

" Why don't you just answer me?" I stand up and pushed his laptop off. I saw his face shocked form what I do. A silence arise, I just look at his emotionless face.
