Monday
Bryan: "Teacher, magpapaiwan ako. May itatanong ako sa'yo. Pero wag ka magagalit ha? Pero antayin po muna nating makaalis sila."
I dismissed the grade 6 pupils. Bryan, Marynard and Prince were left with me in the Computer Lab. I think it's becoming their habit, not wanting to go after I dismissed them and ask me silly questions.
Ako: "So... What is it about?"
Bryan: "Cher.. Kayo pa po ba ni EJ?"
I was taken aback. And was mystified. Didn't know that was coming. I admit, last night was terrible. But.. I didn't know it'll be so obvious. Bryan whispered something to Prince earlier before our class. And he was actually playing with my phone. Yet, I didn't mind. After all, it was Bryan.
Ako: "Why?"
Bryan: "Basta cher! Kayo pa po ba ni EJ?"
Ako: "Why so curious?"
Bryan: "Di nga cher kasi? Hindi mo naman po sinasagot tanong ko eh."
Ako: "Why do you need to know?"
Bryan: "Wala lang cher."
Ako: "Wala lang pala eh."
Bryan: "Cher naman eh. Ayaw sagutin! Hindi mo na kasi sinusuot yung singsing mo."
Instead of answering him, I just asked the three of them to take a photo with me.
