Love, Behold

Picture

Umusog si Lev sa gilid kaya naupo ako sa harap ni Yolo. I didn't expect na nadito ulit siya pero hindi ko lang pinahalata iyon sa kanila that I was a bit startled.

"Uhm.. This is my best friend Lev Marie" Turo ko sa kaibigan.

"Lev si Yolo." Pakilala ko naman kay Yolo.

Ngumiti ang best friend ko

"Hi Yolo! Finally nakita na rin kita. You know I heard so much about you." she smirked. "Including iyong magaling ka sa swimming? At nanalo ka sa lahat ng competition na sinasalihan mo." She continued.

Lumaki ang mata ni Yolo tila nagulat sa sinabi ng best friend ko. Napakamot ito sa kanyang ulo.

"If I know hindi lang sa swimming ikaw magaling." She wispered.

I cleared my throat "Sorry I told her."

"N-no it's okay. I don't mind." He said

"You know what.. I also know that you two met here right?"

Lev Marie and her freaking mouth.

"We first saw each other here Lev." I said

"I saw you before though.. It was not my first time seeing you here.." Yolo said kaya napatingin kami sa kanya.

"Really?" My best friend said curiously she said "When did you saw her first?"

I also looked at him curiously.. He saw me before? I have no idea.

"It was on some kind of event held by your father but I believe you hardly noticed me back then."

I cannot believe it. He saw me in the birthday party of my sister Scarlet.

"Birthday nun nang kapatid ko."

"Are you having a crush on Lily?" Biglang sabi ni Lev Marie.

I saw him gulped.

"N-not really.. Lily's pretty but not my type..." Tumingin ito sa akin. "Sorry" he whispered.

Damn. That was harsh. I felt my mouth opened slight so I closed it and fix my sit.

Wala namang may nagsalita pagkatapos nun. Buti nalang at tinawag na iyung order namin. I was about to stand and get our order when Lev Marie said she'll get it instead.

It was little awkward.

"Sorry that was not what I meant." Pagbasag niya ng katahimikan.
"I just-"

"No need to be sorry when your only saying the truth." I replied.

"Actually.. That was not the truth." He glanced at me and was about to say something but my best friend came back to the table.

He didn't utter another word then. Lev Marie was the one who changed topic. Thank god for her non stop mouth.

"So ganito ang mangyayari.. After every 50 minutes na mag aaral tayo meron tayong 10 minutes break. Deal."

"Deal" I answered.

Yolo just nodded.

"Okay let's start stuDYING." pinagdiinan pa talaga ni Lev Marie ang dying na salita.

I started focusing in my major subject. While Lev was studying in one of our minor subjects. Yolo continued reading his book.

We are quite for a while deeply immersed in our bubbles. I was memorizing a certain steps when Lev Marie closed her book.
