Until My Last Breath

Him

Sam's POV

Lutang lang ako all the way home. Hindi parin ako makapaniwala na ang pinakakainingatan ko na first kiss ko ay mawawala sa isang iglap. When I was a kid, I always dream of having such romantic and glamorous first kiss with the person I love under the sky full of stars but then my fairytale dream about me losing my first kiss in a romantic way vanish like a smoke. I am still so not over it talaga at for you to know how's the devil who shout like there is no tomorrow *tingtininining* no other than my oh so maarte bestfriend, Samantha Fernandez.

I enter the house na nakatulala parin when I bump into someone

"Hey lil sis. What happened to you? Nag mall kalang, umuwi kang parang namatayan. Is there something wrong?" Nag-aalalang tanong ni kuya sa akin.

"Kuyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa." I shouted and hug him tight like I never did before. I feel him caressing my hair and he kiss my temple.

"What's your problem, Gabriela? May nangyari ba? Nanakawan kaba? What?" He said.

"Kuyaaaa, i lost it." I dramatically said and sob.

"Lost what?" He asked, curiously.

"I lost my first kiss to some random stranger kuya. I cannot huhuhuhu" Tugon ko. But to my surprise tinawanan niya lang ko, halos mamatay siya kakatawa but when he look at me with a tears in my eyes he tried to hide his laugh. I punch him nga.

"Ano ba. Why are you laughing kuya? Do you think it is some kind of a joke? Kuya, i just lost my first kiss. My very precious first ki—." Hindi ko natuloy ang dapat kong sabihin when my brother stop me.

"Fuck. Akala ko pa naman ano na nangyari sa princess namin. Okay lang yan lil sis. If you'll see that guy again, punch him in the gut, aright?" He said with finality, kiss my temple, release the hug and waved at me. Inirapan ko nalang si kuya then I walk to my room and decided to sleep.

Naalimpungatan ako. I look for my phone and look at the time. Oh, alas 7 palang pala. Magtutulakbong sana ulit ako sa akong mahal na comforter when realization hit me. Shit. It's 7 am and today is my first day of school.

I ran towards my bathroom and do my daily routine faster than I normally do, after 20 minutes Im done. Dali dali akong bumaba then ran towards the dining area. I stop when I saw my parents sitting and talking to each other.

"Good morning mom, dad" I greeted them and kiss them in the cheek. I sat in my designated sit.

"Good morning sweety" mom replied with a huge smile while dad did just look at me then frown. Yep. I am not in a good terms with my dad because of my acads. The reason why he transfer me to another school because my grades in my previous school was not so good, may kaagaw kasi ako sa pagiging number one dun. Dad has this very big expectation with me and kuya kaya nga Im doing my very best to make him proud.

"Ah, where is kuya po mom?" I ask kasi bihira lang hindi sumabay kumain si kuya samin.

"Oh, he go to school early sweety. Officer duties." she winked at me. My brother is the Central Student Council president sa school na lilipatan ko. I continue eating and look at my wristwatch.

"Mom, dad. I gotta go. Im going to be late at school. Bye po." I kiss them again then wave goodbye.

I arrive at school 5 minutes before the time. Damn, I don't want to gather attention. Ayoko ma late. I hate attention talaga. I dial kuyas number but he's not picking up. Nawawalan na ako nang pag-asa. I don't know kung saang building ang room ko. Damn, i am so dead. I walk along the hallway with the other students but I don't have the guts to ask them. Jeeez, hindi man halata but im shy. Im not a friendly person kaya nga Sam is the only friend I've got. I look at my wristwatch and damn 1 minute before the bell rings. I approach a lady that has a skin like snow white. Shoot, ang kinis niya. Makinis din naman ako but hers is just different. Goosh, nakakainggit.

"Ah, hi. Can I ask you something?" I asked. She look at me. I thought she'll just going to ignore me but she smile and nodded.

"Yeah, sure. What is it? Are you new here? It's my first time seeing your face inside this campus but you have some kalokalike. Anyways, what will you ask?" She said.

"Ah, may I ask where is this room located at?" I let her see my schedule at tinuro ang room number na nakalagay.

"Oh my gaaaash. Im also heading there. We're classmates? Omoooo, this is so exciting. Bdw, hi. Im Jazclavia Kruzet, you?" She scream her heart out after knowing na magkaklase kami. Ghad, she's so hyper and yea ... talkative.

"Ah, Anastasia Gabriela. But Gab nalang." I reached for her hand then she giggle and dragged me towards our room, i guess?

Nasa harap kami ngayon ng isang pinto and based on what I see sa room number na nasa ibabaw nito, this is my i mean our designated room for the whole year. Jaz is still holding me like a mother whom scared to lost a grip with her daughter. Nakakatuwa because I feel comfortable even if we've just meet a minute ago in the hallway. I felt Jaz is pulling me towards the room.

Pagpasok namin ni Jaz sa room, all eyes are on us. Paano ba naman, nasa harap na ang teacher namin and she's discussing something na. Argh. I just said i hate attention but here I am, gaining a lot of it.

The teacher look at Jaz then to me. She smile upon seeing me. She motioned us to sit wherever we want. I roamed around the room then found two chairs sa pinakadulo. Pupunta na sana ako dun when our teacher called me.

"Miss, you might as well introduce yourself to us since you are the only one whose new here." She said. Naglakad ako pabalik sa center which I found so awkward kasi lahat sila nasakin ang tingin.

"Hi. Good morning. I am Anastasia Gabriela Samaniego. 17. Ahm. Be good to me?" I said with a question mark. Aalis na sana ako when our teacher ask me.

"How are you related to Gabriel Aldus Samaniego?" I can see excitement in her eyes. Uh. Why is she excited eh?

"He's my brother po, miss." I see twinkle in her eyes, gone was the strict aura she has kanina before I told her that Al is my brother. Uh. I smell something fishy huh. Bumalik na ako sa upuan ko. Nagpatuloy na sa kanyang discussion si Miss Marga about the classroom rules and everything that i am not concern of.

"The fifth rule is —." Naputol ang dapat na sasabihin ni Miss Marga when the door swang open and iniluwa nito ang isang nilalang na hindi ko inakalang makikita ko sa lugar na ito.

It's him. Siya yon. I am not mistaken, I remember his face. The handsome, gorgeous and pretty face that I saw inside the NBS and the one whom I accidentally share my first kiss with.

He roamed around his eyes in the four corners of the room, damn bat parang ang sexy? Shiit. Gab, get a hold of yourself. Arrrgh. Then I froze. I froze when his eyes is fixed to mine. Hindi pako nakakarecover when he show me, us his sexy smirk that plastered in his handsome and gorgeous face.
