Chapter 2
You would really know that it is not the right person for you if it doesn't make the butterflies in your stomach growl like a lion cub. If that person doesn't have an impact towards you. If that person didn't get into your nerves. But if you are feeling different by those things? maybe you already found the right one.
After ng party eh dumiretso na agad ako sa condo unit ko. Balak ko na sanang magpahinga from an exhausted day pero may bumabagabag sa isipan ko.
After our little talk, She already occupied my mind. I didn't get a sleep. I was mesmerized by her voice and face, It feels like I already saw an angel. She even entered on my dreams! She left me out of words. She's getting into my nerves.
"Hoy Troye! Tulala ka na naman diyan?kagabi ka pa tulala tol! Ano bang nangyayare sayo?" Lance asked me.
We're in the cafeteria right now. It is our lunch break and yes! I am planning to go in that bar again to look after her, but this time I will go there alone.
"Ahhh—nothing! I am just tired," I replied.
"You really look like!" And Lance continued to eat.
I've been spaced out early of this day. Kanina before ako lumabas ng condo eh nakalimutan ko yung wallet ko, kung hindi ko pa kinapa bulsa ko eh malamang magmumukha akong kawawa sa jeep. Then sa first subject namin which is Contemporary Music, I am also spaced out. Muntik pa kong mapahiya sa klase kanina. Terror pa naman yung profesor na 'yon.
"Okay understood class?"
"Yes Ms. Sharmaine!" (Class in chorus)
"Then can you please give me an example of contemporary music?"
Naririnig kong nagtatanong si Ma'am but I am not in the mood to raise my hand and give her the answers that she wants. Hanggang ngayon kase eh there is still something bothering me. I find it so weird? Melody yung pangalan niya ta's magaling pa siyang kumanta? ano 'yon na predict na agad ng parents niya na she is born with music in her blood?
"Mr Almonte?" A distinct voice.
Isa pa sa bumabagabag sa isipan ko eh kung babalik ba ko sa bar na 'yon.
Should I go back there again just to satisfied myself? Hindi naman niya siguro ako mamumukhaan! Medyo nakakahiya kase on how our first encoutered."Mr Almonte? Give me an example of contemporary music!"
But what if mamukhaan niya ko? Baka isipin niya eh I am trying to hit with her! what the hell?! she is so—
"MR ALMONTE?! NAKIKINIG KA BA?!" our Prof screamed on me.
"Ahmmm y—ess po." I stuttered. Unti unti nang namumuo yung pawis sa mukha ko. She is a terror one, so I don't wanna deal with her nang ganto kaaga.
"Then what's my question towards you?" Ms. Sharmaine habang nakataas ang magkabilang kilay.
I have no idea what Ma'am's question is, tangina nakalimutan ko na but, based on our current subject I seem to know. "Ahmmm—ano po—yung sa contemporary music po."
"Anong ano sa contemporary Music?!" she yelled.
Fuck it! Mukhang mapapahiya ako nito ah! I already hearing my classmates distinct voices. Inikot ko yung mata ko sa room and I saw how my classmates laughing because of me. Tangina! Nakakahiya!
"You spaced out in my class Mr Almonte? I am so disappointed! Isa ka sa mga inaasahan ko dito sa klase pero ganyan ka ngayon?!" Bakas sa boses ni Prof ang pagkadismaya.
Well yeah! Active ako sa klase na 'to because of how obsessive I am in field of music. This is my only subject na konektado sa music so I am trying my best to give my best shot everyday in her class but it turns out that I fucked up today.
