Chapter 7

I still woke up early today because it's tuesday. Araw ng palengke sa Calumpit so for sure I will be stuck there and face the real battle, which is the heavy traffic.

I fixed the bed and did my morning routine. I took a bath and brushed my teeth. I don't have a skincare routine like other girls my age. I don't know I just don't feel like having one. I also brush my teeth first before eating breakfast. Maybe it's just me?

I put my uniform on. It is still my cream colored blouse with a very small embroided logo of a butterfly that symbolizes our school on the collar together with my ribbon. I also fixed my black slacks and still a black heeled shoe. I'm more comfortable wearing slacks because I am not the girly type that loves to wear skirts and dresses.

I ate my breakfast and drank my coffee. I also put my lunchbox in a paper bag together with my mineral water.

"Nay alis na po ako." I waved my hand to my grandmother as I walked away.

Habang naglalakad ako iniisip ko parin kung may nakalimutan ba ako habang malapit pa ako sa bahay. I check my bag and find some things that maybe I forgot to bring. I saw my test papers there and I think that's the most important thing I should bring today.

"Shoot! Nakalimutan ko magpaalam kay nanay na may practice ako ngayon."

Sabi ko na may nakalimutan ako eh. Alam nyo yung feeling na parang lagi kang may nakakalimutan palagi bago ka umalis? It always happens to me.

"Maybe I'll just send a message. Kay mama nalang sa messenger."

Kabado padin ako eh. Madalas kasi nagpapaalam ako agad para alam nila kung anong oras yung uwi ko. I just don't want them to worry or overthink about me getting home late.

Inabot ko na yung bayad ko sa tricycle driver bago ako bumaba. Nasa kanto na pala ako di ko namalayan.

I heave a sigh before crossing the road. There's something that's bothering me that I don't know. Or maybe I just don't want to admit?

"Bayad po isa pong kapitolyo estudyante." sabi ko sabay abot ng bente pesos.

Naoobserve ko na nagiging familiar na ako sa mga nakakasakay ko sa jeep. Maybe I like to observe things wherever I go.

As soon as I got my change, I put my earphones in my ears and started playing a random song.

(Now Playing: Tenerife Sea - Ed Sheeran)

You look so wonderful in your dress
I love your hair like that
The way it falls on the side of your neck
Down your shoulders and back

I suddenly remember my crush singing this song. It relaxes my mind and makes me calm. I have a lot of crushes always but I just see them something that is ideal.

We are surrounded by all of these lies
And people that talk too much
You got that kind of look in your eyes
As if no one knows anything but us

When I have a crush on someone, I just find him attractive. Maybe he is handsome or kind? A gentleman or a smart guy? Maybe good in sports or has a great voice? When I think he is ideal, maybe he's my crush.

Should this be the last thing I see
I want you to know it's enough for me
'Cause all that you are is all that I'll ever need

Suddenly, something crossed my mind. I never had a crush on someone online. Maybe there is someone that has a crush on me, but I didn't mind and wished that we'll still remain as friends.

I'm so in love
So in love
So in love
So in love

I just closed my eyes and let those thoughts vanish. I just want to have my own peace that I will not have inside the school.
