"Care to explain, Freya Solana?"
Napalunok ako dahil sa sobrang dilim ng ekspresyon ni Rade.
I looked at him with a blank face. Pilit kong itinatago ang nararamdamang takot. Don't panic, Frey. Show him you're not bothered.
"Rade. Stop being so nosy. Why don't you find out what's your problem first. Stop pestering me." Salubong ang kilay kong sabi.
Tinalikuran ko siya at padabog na umakyat. Pumasok ako ng kwarto at nilock ito.
After what he did? After ignoring me? Eto ang ibubungad niya?
Hinubad ko ang aking uniporme at nilagyan ito ng aking pabango. Upang mawala ang amoy ni Lance. When his scent was gone, I put my uniform to the laundry basket.
Phew. That was close.
Mabuti at hindi na nangulit si Rade. Manang Apple said na umuwi na raw siya. Good thing hindi siya umakyat sa kwarto ko.
After that, hindi na muli siyang nagparamdam. I suddenly feel nervous. What if he tell this to my parents? I'm doomed!

Umalis si Rade nang hindi kami maayos. He's acting strange. Or maybe he's just stressed out because of their business? Siguro nga. Hindi naman niya yata ako isinumbong sa mga magulang ko. Thank God.
I kept myself busy reading books. Since it's sembreak. I am reading romance books to be exact. I got addicted. Ang una kong nabasa na romance book ay ang isang binabasa ni Alexa. Kaya simula noon bumili na ako ng mga romance book. My parents don't know about it. Baka makuha pa ang mga libro ko.
Days passed at palagi kong naiisip si Rade. What happened to him? Hindi naman siya nagsasabi sa akin. I asked his parents ngunit hindi rin nila alam. Sinabi nila na noong mga araw na nandito si Rade last last week ay palagi raw itong umaalis. Hindi sinasabi kung saan siya pupunta.
Today is Wednesday. I'm with Lance. Tahimik lamang kami na naglalakad. I'm not eating kwek kwek right now. Nagsawa na ako. Hmm. Maybe kikiam na lang? Kaso kailangan ko munang magpaalam kay Lance kung pwede ako noon.
Lance is silent today. Pati noong lunes. Actually last last week pa. Since Rade came back to the province. Kinakausap niya pa rin naman ako. Sabay parin kaming umuwi every MWF. But he's cold. Seriously what's wrong with them?
Napatingin ako kay Lance. As usual, his face is blank again.
"Hey," I called him.
He lazily looked at me.
"What?"
"What's wrong with you? You've been like that for a while now."
His brows shot up.
"Like what?"
I rolled my eyes in annoyance.
"You're so...." Hindi ko na madugtungan pa ang sinabi.
"So? Handsome? Yeah. I know that."
He said cockily.
"Yeah right. You're so cold. Are we good?" I asked. I looked straight in his eyes.
His eyes remained to me. Kumunot ang kanyang noo. Umawang ang labi. It's like I said something ridiculous?
"Ano?"
Tumigil siya sa paglalakad. Hinila ako sa gilid upang hindi kami makaharang sa daan.
"Fine. I will tell you what's wrong. But first, answer this question honestly,"
He scratched his eyebrows.
He always scratched his eyebrows everytime he is frustrated.
"Okay. Fire it."
I crossed my arms
"Gusto mong maghiganti sa akin?
Am I right?" His expression darkened.
