That Girl

Episode 5: We're friends

Hindi ako makatulog kakaisip sa nangyari kanina, ayaw maalis sa isipan ko eh mabuti nalang saturday bukas walang pasok pero kailangan ko pumunta ng school in the afternoon kasi may Quiz Bowl nanaman akong sasalihan sa monday at dun ako mag - aaral.

'Thank you for the ice cream'

Hindi ko makalimutan kung pano yung mukha niya nung nag thank you siya sa Ice cream and just by that thought it made me smirked, He was really cute, hahaha.

Its 1 in the afternoon na so I decide to fix myself para pumunta na ng school. Hinatid ako Mom. Andito nako sa library kausap si Ms. Gomez.

"Ms. Jemina itong part nato paki review na rin it will probably be one of the coverage" she said, giving me some files to study. "I will just leave you here muna kasi may gagawin din ako sa faculty, I will be back after an hour or so, okay?" I just nodded at her and she left.

Maganda naman pala kung dito magaaral pag weekend, walang tao, dati kasi pag may acad contest akong sasalihan sa bahay lang ako usually nag - aaral para walang disturbo pero ang kulit kasi ni Mom, she likes me to be in a different environment at para daw involve yung teachers ko preparing for it and so far not so bad naman.

Medyo napapagod nako, masakit na ang liig at likod ko, I scanned the papers that I should review at kunti naman na lang kaya I decided na eh higa muna yung ulo ko sa lamesa, I crossed my arms on the table and leaned my head on it habang ganun yung possisyon ko I tried remembering the things that I have read para ma refresh kung baga.

I heard the door opened, hindi ako kumilos I just figured na baka si Ms. Gomez lang at baka she would just understand if I rest for a little bit. Naramdaman ko na umupo siya sa harapan ko, tahimik lang naman siya, Dahil kulang ang tulog ko kagabi hindi ko na napigilang maka tulog.

I felt something cold on my cheek kaya nagising ako, I carefully fixed myself from sleeping hindi ko pa na angat ang ulo ko I noticed a hand holding an Ice cream. I looked up and nagulat ako kung sinong kamay yun, it was Ronn's. Hindi ako makapagsalita kasi nakakagulat talaga, inabot niya ulit yung ice cream, kunuha ko yun sa kamay niya and he sat in front of me quietly. Feeling ko mas malamig pa siya kesa sa Ice cream.

"What are you doing here? And whats this?" I rose an eyebrow while I was asking, then raising my hand with the ice cream a little.

"Study" he pointed at the books he was holding "Ice cream" he continued habang tinitignan yung hawak ko. Like seriously? Cant he just answer it nicely, tskk.

"Tsk, whatever" I just said, nakakaasar kaya. Mag sasalita pa sana ako kasi ayaw kung may ibang tao pag nag -  aaral ako sa paligid, then bumukas ulit ang pinto, pag lingon ko it was Ms. Gomez again kaya umayos ako sa pagkakaupo ko. Nung nasa harapan na si Ms. samin she smiled at us.

"It seems like you guys were doing just fine together here ha?" She smiled again, napakunot yung kilay ko, anong pinagsasabi niya eh kakarating lang naman netong lalaking to dito "Is there something going on between you two? I saw some Ice cream over here" she said while laughing, is she teasing us?! like, excuse me?

"What? Are you being serious Ms?" I said controlling myself kasi kunti nalang ma annoy nako kay Ms. Gomez, before pa maka masagot si Ma'am napalingon ako kay Ronn, ayos na mga gamit niya at tumayo siya at parang He's ready to leave, he stepped like two steps and stopped medyo malapit kay Ma'am. He looked at me with no emotion and looked at Ms. Gomez.

"We're friends" he said and walked away. What? Hindi ako na inform na kaibigan ko pala siya no, I mean for what he did yesterday was nice pero considered na kaming friends nang ganun? Don't get me wrong but that was really quick.

"Ow so you guys are friends? Mabuti naman Ms. Jemina okay lang pala na dito nalang din mag - aaral si Mr. Dy para sa mga sasalihan niyang acad contest, baka you guys can help each other" what? Medyo naguguluhan na ako, eh hindi ko nga siya nakitang nag - aral dito eh, I really looked confused kaya sguro namalayan ni Ma'am "hala you didn't know Ms. Jemina? Were you sleeping? Hahaha, kanina pa si Mr. Dy dito Mga" she looked at her watch and talked again "an hour and a half na sguro" 

WHATTTT? SOO... AHHH NAKAKAHIYA KA TALAGA LYLAAAA AND PLUS ANG HABA PALA NG TULOG KOOOO!!!!

"But yo.. you we.. you were, I thought it was you.. you came earlier?" I said stuttering.

"Oh no, dumating kasi siya an hour or two? after I was here, He came here to prepare for a Math Quiz Bowl on monday too. I told him nandito ka and I thought maybe you need some company kaya hindi nako bumalik, ngayon lang ako naka balik since kanina nung hinatid kita dito" she said. Mayghaddd nakakahiya. I placed my two hands on my face and sighed heavily.

Nasa sasakyan nako ngayon, sinundo ako ng driver ni Mommy sa company nila kasi busy daw siya eh. Grabe hindi ko makalimot kung anong nangyari, ang tanga mo talaga minsan Lyla. Worst thing is tinarayan ko lang siya and I didn't even said thank you for the Ice cream, kanina ko pato inisip kulang nalang mag wala na ako dito sa sasakyan kasi tinanong nako ng driver kung okay lang ba ako.

Medyo gabi narin nung nakarating kami sa bahay, before kong bumaba sa sasakyan I said thank you and goodbye sa driver. Pagkababa ko nakita ko si Ronn sa may bandang unahan nang gate namin napataas nanaman yung kilay ko, he was leaning on his car again with crossed arms to his chest.

Lumapit ako sa kanya ang he noticed me and stood up straight. I looked very confused kung bakit nandito na naman siya, bakit ba ang hilig nitong sumusulpot bigla - bigla.

"I have something for you" He said...
