"Huh? Sino?" sabi ko. "OMG! Girl, sabihin mo na! Nakakalerky!" sabi naman ni Allaina. "Mahina ang kalaban mga bes! Wait lang ha?" tapos nang sinabi ni Dre, pumunta siya sa crowd and pulled someone out and then came back to us. Hindi ko makita yung mukha niya dahil sa strobe lights pero he had a nice body. Parang, yung palaging nag work out? "Steph, this is Brent Rhyle Ortega. Friend ko siya since grade school and I told him all about you. " sabi ni Dre. "Hi. Nice to meet you." sabi ni Brent. Nag shake hands kami. "Wow! Atetech! Ang shufo shufo niya!" sabo ni Allaina. "What are we still doing here? Dance floor na tayo!" sabi ni Dre. So we danced again. After dancing, 4 am na. "Uwi na tayo guys! Pagod na ako." sabi ko. "Oo nga. Ako din." sagot ni Allan. (Allan kasi umaga na.) Sumakay kami sa kotse, este. Limousine ni Dre. At isa-isa kaming hinatid. "Bye sa inyong lahat!" at sinara ko na ang pintuan sa bahay. I went upstairs to my room and fell down on the bed. Hayyys. What a day.
"Steph?" may kumatok sa pintuan. "Stephanie?" si Yaya. "Gumising ka na Steph. It's almost 5 pm." "HAAAAA?!" I stood up from my bed. Weh? Di nga? I checked my phone, 5 pm talaga. Oh my gush. Grabe. "Sige, thank you yaya." Lumabas si Yaya at tiningnan ko ang sarili ko sa mirror. Wew. Still in last night's dress. Ew. So nag shower ako tas nagbihis tapos bumaba ako for my breakfast/ lunch/ dinner. When I reached the kitchen, wow! Sarap! Cheese burgers, pasta carbonara at potato chips. Kumain agad ako. Me so hungry. Haha. When I finished, Kuya arrived home. "Oh, so the sleeping beauty is now awake." Kuya said sarcastically. "Yes. The beautiful lady is now awake." Wow. Ang feeler ko, ah. I stood up and went straight to my room
BRO
After I met her last night, parang she's all I think about. I texted Andrea and told her that I wanted to meet the one and only Stephanie Isabelle Santiago. The pretty and smart girl from La Salle.
Hi! I'm Brent Rhyle Ortega a.k.a BRO. I come from a rich family, I'm very handsome, (Haha. Vain.) and a very smart person too. I'm a good boy for all you know. Hindi ako pareho sa ibang bad boys. I'm loyal and dedicated. Wow. Moving on, the morning before Dre's birthday bash at Tiki, I was already planning to meet her. Actually, I have met her before. You will find out later. Fast forward to Tiki, kinabahan na ako sa meet up namin. "Stephanie, this is Brent Rhyle Ortega. Friend ko siya since grade school and I told him all about you." "Hi! Nice to meet you." sabi ko. Ano na gagawin ko? Make your move Brent! Nag shake hands nalang kami kaso lang hindi ko makuha ang features ng mukha niya dahil sa lighting. Pero never mind at least this was the girl I wanted to meet. Fast forward naman tayo to this Monday.
"Uy! BRO! Mag lunch ka ba?" sabi ni Jake. "Wag na. 1:30 next class ko." sagot ko sa kanya. Anyway, pumunta ako sa room ko. Aba. Nando'n si Stephanie. I went to my seat and started to study.
SIS
I was waiting patiently for Prof. Tolention to came nang biglang pumasok si mysterious guy. He directly went to his seat at nag study. Okay. When Prof. Tolentino came in, he started the class immediately. Hayys. Math na naman. The class went by quickly until it was time for us to go home. I was getting some things from my locker when my phone rang.
"Hello?"
Stephanie! Punta ka dito sa labas ng school. Sabi ni Dre.
"Bakit?" sagot ko sa kanya.
Basta! Punta ka lang dito! Bye!
Wow. Medyo weird pero okay. Pumunta ako sa labas ng school. Nakita ko si Dre na may dalang envelope. "Ay! Andyan na siya! Eto, o! Galing kay Brent." Binuksan ko at binasa ko ang sulat.
You're far away, my love amongst the stars.
But yet you're still racing in my mind's eye.
You carved out my heart, and left many scars.
As life my love, is drawing close to nigh.
Wow. Na touched ako. Hindi ko alam na may gusto pala siya sa poems. Mas deep pa ang meaning nito kaysa sa aking mga poems. Naka inspire talaga.
BRO
From: Dre Dre :)
Binasa niya ang poem mo. Tuwang tuwa siya. Thank you daw.
Si Stephanie? Binasa ang poem ko? Haha. Well, we are in the same class with Ms. Dublas. Anayway, she doesn;t know na ako ang nakabangga sa kanya (twice) and she doesn't know na ako ang nag-iinsulto sa kanya on my very first day here in La Salle. And now for my final plan.
SIS
I put the letter in my bag and went home directly. I'd like to tell you a little more about my Kuya. His name is Stephen Alexander Santiago. Just like me, he has a fair complexion, matangos na ilong, brown hair and he's very tall. Some people call him Steal. Anyway, Kuya has an on going relationship with a girl named Blaine. Hindi ko siya kilala pero Kuya says she's very pretty.
When I reached home, I did my assignments and went to bed.
The next day, I went to school but stopped by my locker to get something.
BRO
Today's the day! I will finally reveal myself to her. I saw her going to her locker a while ago. So sinundan ko siya. And no. Hindi ako stalker.
SIS
When I closed the door of my locker, I saw mysterious guy come near me. "Hi." sabi ko. Tapos nag walk out. Nang biglang hinila niya ako pabalik."Hi." sagot niya. "Bitawan mo ako!" I said shouting.
He made me face him. "Hi Stephanie. Ako pala si BRO. I'm Brent Rhyle Ortega."
And then my eyes got bigger until I realized the poem. Because we are in the same class with Ms. Dublas. Tiningnan ko ang eyes niya. Hazel nga. Siya ang nakabangga sa akin. Wala na akong ibang masagot kundi,
"Ikaw pala si Brent?!"
