"Oh tignan mo, ni-like back lang naging absent minded na."

Queen said while writing something on a scratch paper beside me. It's our breaktime, we decided to just stay in our room instead of going out. The others left to gala.

"Hanap kana kasi nang sayo, para naman di ka na mainggit" pang babara ni Angie who sits infront of me. Queen just rolled her eyes as a sign of defeat.

"Czah, tapos ka na sa plates natin?" Singit ni Macey na katabi ni Angie.

We have plates kase sa aming major, since we are classmates in Civil Technology. While Queen and Angie are both taking Cookery majors.

"Yeah, ba't ikaw di kananaman gumawa? Nako ikaw talagang bruha ka sasabunutan na talaga kita." Gigil na sabi ko. She just give a peace sign and get my plate to start hers.

"Oh sa'n na nagsusuot bebe mo?" Angie said while texting on her phone. She smile from time to time. Probably Kirt, Tsk!

"Ayy ewan!" Then bumalik na kami sa kanya kanya naming ginagawa.

Well, I actually know the reason, nauna na kasi siya sa shop it's because group nila ang mag field work ngayon.

When the bell rang that's the cue, lunch break is over. So we prepare ourselves 'cause it's major time.

"Macey! dali na malelate na tayo!"

"Di yan, nako! If I know gusto mo nang makita si Kane"sabi ni Macey ng matapos syang mag ayos ng plates nya. I roll my eyes at her. Alam naman pala niya e di pa nagmamadali.

Then were off to go. Malayo palang tanaw na namin ang aming shop na malayo-layo sa ibang shops. Our major kasi includes actual work, kaya kami yung may malaking space kesa sa ibang shops.

Nang makarating hinanap ng mata ko si Kane, and there he is with Sir Reycoms discussing about their actual work in carpentry. His wearing his PPE na with a hard hat on his left hand.

"Sirrrr!"

Sigaw ni Macey ng makapasok kami sa shop. Kaya napatigil sila sa kanilang ginagawa at lumingon sa gawi namin, Kane smile at me.

"Oh? Anyare sayo ba't ka nagsisigaw?" Bungad ni sir ng makalapit kami.

Which means nasa tabi ko na si Kane. I look at him smiling from ear to ear. Ang hawt naman nito, shocks!

"Nga pala Czah partner pala kayo ni Krist sa actual" sabi ni sir ng makabuluhan.

Crush ko kasi si Krist dati. Itong si Macey tatanga tanga nadulas ang matabil na dila, ayan tuloy nalaman ni sir.

Tsk! Matagal na yun no, kung alam mo lang sir may Kane na ako no!

Biglang nag walk out si Kane. Halaaa.

"Oh napano yon?" nagtatakang sabi ni Macey.

"Jelly jelly?" panuksong dagdag niya

"Manahimik ka nga!" saway ko sabay sinundan ng tingin si Kane palabas ng pintuan habang sinusuot ang hard hat.

"Magsisimula na sila, pero di pa ako tapos mag discuss" napakamot nalang si sir sa kanyang batok sabay sunod sa nilabasang pintuan ni Kane.

Kumuha kami ng dalawang mono block at dinala sa maliit na kubo sa harap ng building namin, nandun ang iba naming mga classmates. We are watching them so that when it's our time to do the actual work, we already know what to do.

Tinignan ko ang bawat galaw ni Kane at masasabi kong ang galing niya, di nakapagtatakang maging mahusay na engineer to sa hinaharap.

Di ko mapigilang kinuha ang cellphone ko sa bag at pinikturan sya. And post it on my ig with a caption "kaya mo yan, para sa future". I giggle and post it. Kampante kasi akong magpost it's because he doesn't have an ig.
