"Babe, your phone vibrated," Ari said looking at my phone that vibrated.

"Alam ko." It's probably that creepy texter.

"Why you didn't pansin? Feeling famous ka?"

"No, dumb. I just find the texter... creepy." Napatuop siya ng bibig na akala mo may himalang nangyari. Best in overacting talaga ang isang 'to.
"You have a stalker?!"

"Shh. Ang oa mo! I'm not sure but I think so. Read it, some texts are creepy." I lend her my phone. "Eversince he started texting, I feel like someone's watching me everywhere I go."

Hindi ko naman nirereplyan but for the past 3 days, the texts are getting weirder.

Nakisilip ako sa pag-scroll ni Ari noong thread. Andoon ang mga bagong mensahe ni Mr. Yous.

Mr. Yous:
Good morning, Wrailette.
Mon 7:03 AM

Hey! Have a good night!

Didn't see you at NFU today :(

Those who have the worst experiences have the best personalities.
Sleep tight, Wrailette!

Why won't you reply? You walked out on me, remember?
See you soon! I know you already want to meet me. I got you cautious, huh? I saw you roamed your eyes around when Carrie left you alone.
No worries, Wrailette. I mean no harm.. :)

Hi, Wrailette!
Have a good day!

"Why do I feel like this is ACB?"

Sino naman si ACB?

"ACB?" I asked.

"Arrogant college boy? I mean, you walked out on him sa party, diba? And he said he didn't see you dito. So you and the stalker is breathing the same polluted air."

"You're right. I did. And kilala ako ng texter. ACB knows my name, too. But how did he get my number? And why is he too kind?"

It's true, though. No matter how creepy I think the texter is, mabait naman siya sa ibang paraan.

"I don't know. Baka he has connections? Or did he tanong tito or tita?"

"I don't know, babe. Pumunta ako sa table niyo after, so I didn't notice him near my parents."

"If he wants, may paraan." She just shrugged and continued to scroll through my messages.

"Damn. Ari! Anong na namang ginagawa natin dito?"

Last Wednesday, Ari told me we'll look for ACB. Aniya'y titignan niya lang daw at oobserbahan kung siya nga yung nagpapadala ng mensahe sa akin. Kailan kaya magmamature ang isang 'to?

For the past two days, sa college building kami nag lulunch. Iba't-ibang building kada araw dahil hindi nga kami sigurado kung anong kurso ni ACB. Lima kasi yung building para sa mga college kasi maraming estudyante.

Ari even told me that if ever we won't see ACB this week, we will lend a week for each building para sure daw na hindi siya doon nagkaklase. She's so persistent.

Well, for sure, we'll be busy next week since it's midterms, so that plan B will probably start next next week.

Of course, magrereview kami. Even if we seem like we're not studying, we are. With my dad's expectations of me, hindi pwede ang pa-chill chill.
