My Tutor was my Bully

"She what?! "- gulat na sabi ni Laila.

Pinandilatan kona man sya ng mata at hinatak paupo dahil nakakakuha na kami ng atensyon sa mga tao.

"She kissed you for real?! "- she said hindi padin makapaniwala.

I face palm myself.

"Dapat hindi kona sinabi. Ang ingay mo! "- I hissed in a low voice.

She sip on her tea at nang aasar na tinignan ako.

"What? "- I asked.

She lean in a little bit at ngumiti ng pang asar sakin.

"Masarap? "

Napapikit ako at kinagat ang dila ko to stop myself from saying bad words to her.

"We're not going to talk about it"

"Why? Don't tell me you don't feel anything? "

Umiling ako at uminom.

"I only felt one thing"

"What is it? "- she eagerly asked.

"Nervousness. It's her sister whom I like. "- sabi ko.

"But we all know she left you hoping to nothing. "- segunda nya.

Simula ng malaman ni Laila na ate ni Jasmine ang gusto ko mas naging eager sya na ipair ako kay Jas.
Hindi sya galit kay Ava kasi Hindi naman daw nya alam kung bakit ganun yung nangyari e pero she wanted me to be happy that's why she keep on pushing me to try Jasmine.

"I still like her. I know she said wag na pero I can't help it. "- walang ganang sabi ko.

"What if she comes back? "

I look on the outside and stare at those people passing by.

"I don't know"

After meeting with Laila nagdesisyon nakong umuwi pero dahil sa nag text si mama na sa shop nalang daw ako dumiretso kaya duon ang bagsak ko.

Pagkabukas ko ng pinto binati nako kaagad ng mga waiter at waitress ni mama. I just smile at them.

Parang natulos naman ako sa kinatatayuan ko ng mapahinto ako dahil sa babaeng nakaupo sa isang mesa sa gilid.

It's Jasmine with my Mom. Napansin ako ni Jasmine at kumaway sya ng kaunti.

I gulp lalo na ng humarap si mama.

Mabagal akong naglakad palapit sa kanila.

"H-hi"- I awkwardly said.

"Jasmine has something for you anak"

Naupo ako. I glance to Jasmine and she just smile to me, a genuine one.

"It's been a week how are you? "-she asked.
"Tambay? "- I said while chuckling.

"Ewan ko ba sa batang ito ayaw pa mag apply"- Mama.

"Well I have a good news for you. Hiring sa kompanya namin and I suggest you to try it"- Jasmine said.

"Well that's really a good news. "- sabi ni mama.

"Ikaw ba ang mag iinterview sakin? "- I asked.

She just smile and shook he head.

"As much as I love it,  I bet not"- she replied.

Naramdaman ko ang paghawak ni mama sa kamay ko.

"Grab it"- she said.

"Makakatanggi paba ako?"

"Then it settled then.  Just be ready. Prepare your resume and go to our company"- Jasmine said at may inilapag na card.
