Heart 2: Precious Heart

CHAPTER 3

-*-

ZARIOUS' POV

Hanggang ngayong umaga hindi pa rin ako makapaniwala sa nangyari kagabi. Something pinched my heart nang maalala kong hindi virgin si Jaden...

It means, I wasn't her first... may nakauna na sa kaniya... hindi man lang siya nasaktan... it was as if she's expert on that.

What the heck am I thinking?!! Sa panahon ngayon, virgin women are very rare sa edad namin lalo na't most of them, e mas manyak pa kaysa sa 'ming mga lalaki.

Saka sino ba naman ako para maghanap ng virgin, e ako nga ang dami ko nang nagalaw na babae. Don't you think so bad about that, sila may gusto no'n, besides, gusto ko rin naman. Pfft!

At ito pa 'yong bumabagabag sa 'kin... we're too fast. She's just my few hours girlfriend b-but we already did that... I mean... hindi naman sa ayaw ko pero hindi ako makapaniwala. Actually, ang dami ko nang naikamang babae and I only knew them for just an hour or few minutes pero hindi naman ako nag-over think nang ganito... siguro dahil iba si Jaden sa kanila.

I respect her, e.

Kanina pa 'kong gising and I was just staring at the ceiling, the whole time.

Inabot ko ang cellphone ko sa side table ng kama ko and I texted Jaden a good morning and I love you. After that, I went to the bathroom and took a shower. Wala naman akong pupuntahan, nasanay lang talaga akong maligo before and after sleeping.

I just wear my boxer-shorts since ako lang naman mag-isa saka dumiretso sa kusina.

Mabilis lang akong nagluto ng kanin, bacon at itlog. I am not new to this. I am an independent since Lolo taught me to be. Kahit kasama ko siya dito for six years, hindi niya ako ipinapagluto, sanay rin akong maglaba ng sarili kong damit kaya nga most of the time, e I only wear boxers para kaunti ang labahin.

Kahit hanggang ngayon na kumakain na ako, binabagabag pa rin ako ng nangyari kagabi. Shit! I should forget about that! I need to review for the finals at walang papasok sa utak ko if I didn't stop thinking about it!

Dapat kinikilig ako, I should be inspired pero parang gumulo lang ang utak ko since Jaden gave me her yes...

I started doing my assignments and projects. After that I took a review. It's so stressful lalo na't sadyang pinagsasabay-sabay ng mga teachers ang requirements dahil malapit na magtapos ang school year.

"Hello," I answered my phone ringing.

"Hon, tuloy pa tayo bukas?"

"Yah! Why? Any problem?"

"Wala lang, I just wanna hear your voice, I miss you." I can't help my lips stretched for a smile. Darn.

"'Di ba sabi ko review muna tayo ngayon? Tomorrow, 6:30 AM, I'll fetch you there. Sabay tayo magdyi-gym, understand?" sabi ko habang inililigpit ang gamit ko. "Tapos ka na magreview?"

"Yeah."

"Jaden..."

"What?" she asked.

"I have to say something," I uttered.

"What's it? Spill it."

"Sa probinsya ako magbabakasyon and college... m-magkakalayo tay--!"

"GREAT!"

"Huh?" My forehead crumpled.

"A-Ah, I mean, it's okay..." there's something on her tone.

"It's just okay for you?" Parang kinurot 'yong puso ko. Darn!
