Hey, Sky!
Today, Giannis visited me. I'm telling you this, para hindi ka magselos. Imagining your furrowed brows and clenched jaw while denying that you're not pissed and jealous brought a small smile on my lips. Before, I didn't really realize that you were serious when you told me you're jealous of my cousin.
Hero and I grew close during my time overseas. But I never thought that his affection meant something else.
Marami akong hindi napansin noon. I even thought you're ridiculous to put malice on the way my cousin treated me.
Magpinsan kami. Sabay kaming lumaki.
Anyway, he accompanied me today, you know. Ginawa ko siyang alalay. Sobrang okay na uli namin. And you wouldn't believe it, he's courting a girl. The same Hero Giannis Trevino who told me it's disgusting to kiss because swapping saliva is unhygienic. Isang beses ko na silang nakitang magkasama and saw them kissing. Ang pinsan kong nandidiri sa pakikipagrelasyon noon, parang asong habol ng habol ngayon.
I officially introduced you to him during our Moving Up Ceremony. I knew then, that there's bad blood between the two of you. Hindi ko maintindihan noon. You're not the rude type of person. But you really showed him that you hated his guts the first time you met him.
Naging protective sa akin si Hero ever since the tragedy happened to our family. Noon, our bonding would only consist of reading separately. Pareho kaming tahimik na bata kaya hindi kami madalas mag-usap. Pero komportable ako sa kanya. The silence between us is somehow comforting for me. Like showing respect of each other's space and thoughts.
Our relationship progressed when we were in L.A. Noong mga panahong kailangan kong magpanggap na malakas, Hero was there to remind me not to. He's the one who kept me sane. He helped me in so many ways. Kahit na alam kong nararamdaman niyang hindi napapawi ang lungkot sa puso ko, he still tried to help ease my pain.
The reason why I was so thrilled, when I saw him with his headphones on while his eyes are closed and sitting comfortably in an armchair, inside my classroom during the first day of class of Senior Highschool in Princeton University.
11-HUMSS-A.
Hindi ko alam na nagtransfer siya at kaklase ko pa. Girls were ogling at him while he's oblivious of his surroundings. He rolled his eyes when he saw me.
Masaya ako dahil may kaclose akong kaklase. Each of the gang went on their way in their chosen strands.
You, Lelouch and Ravi chose STEM. Magkaklase kayo ni Lelouch sa pilot section at nahiwalay si Ravi. You want to be a doctor. Si Lelouch at Ravi naman ay Engineering.
Heaven decided to pursue a career in sports, so he chose Sports track. Siya at ang ibang teammates mo sa basketball varsity. Sabi niya he'll study Sports Science in college.
Sina Taki at Magui ay magkasama sa ABM because they're going to help their business. Samantalang si Sloane naman ang tanging pumili ng Design and Arts track since she liked performing arts. Gusto niyang magtheater.
My cousin became an instant heartthrob at school. He was also really popular in his previous school, Stadfeldt University. He's the top of his batch. Tapos ngayon nasa Princeton na. Hindi nakakapagtaka ang mabilis na pagkalat ng balitang nasa 11-HUMSS-A ang guwapo at matalinong Giannis Trevino na pinsan pala ni Troian Nevarez.
Labag sa kalooban ni Hero nang hinila ko siya para sa lunch break. Sana daw ay nagpanggap ako na hindi kami magkakilala. Paano ba naman, hindi ako pinansin buong orientation.
"Why would I do that?" I asked him.
"Well, you might be a loser in this school. Don't wanna be related with the likes of you." Walang kwenta niyang sagot. Naglabas pa siya ng hand sanitizer at naglagay sa kamay niya. He offered it to me, so I smacked his head pretty hard.
