Heart Skips a Beat

Chapter One

"Class dismiss." Sabi ng guro namin 5 minutes before the bell rang.

I stretched my arms and fixed my bag ready to leave school and head to the park.

I wanted to relax. I couldn't breath. Nakakapagod talaga mag aral and to think na ngayon pa lang ang first day of school. Stress, papangit ako nito, pangit na nga ako eh.

Habang nag lalakad ako, I texted my twin kung saan ako pupunta at mauna na lang siyang umuwi baka kasi malate ako.

And yes, you heard me right. May Kambal ako.

You see, me and my twin are identical. We honestly look the same from head to toe. We're like walking mirrors, you wouldn't know the difference well except for the hair. She was blonde, ako din dati but I often have hair dyes. Ngayon kulay asul na ang buhok ko. The only thing that ruins it is our personalities and talents. Andrea Brigitte Clarke, among the both of us, is the girly one. Siya yung typical head of the cheerleading club sa school namin. She's popular, barkada niya ang mga kapwa niyang nag-rereynahan at nag-hahariharihan sa school. Matalino naman siya, maarte nga lang. Pag dating sa school, matapang siya, magaling mag salita. She wouldn't allow others to step on her, she has her pride. Kinakatakutan nga siya sa school namin eh, pero pag dating sa bahay di yan nag sasalita. Tahimik lang, emo, poker face.

While I, Alexa Beverly Clarke, is the adventurous one. I love going on to adventures and traveling. Mahilig ako sa sports. I love to sing and I'm smart enough to pass some couple of As. Iba ako sa kambal ko, tahimik ako sa school. Di naman ako loner, may mga barkada ako. We weren't known at school, average students lang kami.

As I was walking, my phone vibrated. I took it out of my pocket. Andrea replied.

"K."

As I received that text I headed my way. Andrea and I were the best of buds back in the old days but as time passed by, nawala na lang bigla yung bond na yun. She started avoiding me and acted like she didn't know me. Na pagod na ata sa mga pag kokompera. Di ko siya masisisi, ako din pagod na pero d ko naman ginawang rason yun upang di kami mag pansinan, ano kaya problema niya?

I sighed.

I first went to the ladies room and changed my clothes because I always believed na pag lumalabas ka na suot ang school uniform mo ay isa yung maling gawain and it might ruin your school's image and plus I can't move well with a skirt.

I changed into some black skinny jeans, black converse and and some extra shirt I took out from my locker. I wasn't paranoid with clothes, I honestly don't care what brand of shoes I use or what kind of shirt I put on.

I took out my earphones and plugged it on without playing anything. I do that a lot. Parang message ko yun sa mga tao na 'huwag niyo kung pansinin, busy ako' or 'mind your own business'. I don't like people disturbing me.

The park was pretty crowded but I didn't mind, lagi naman eh, nasanay na ako. I go here everyday to cool myself. May sarili akong lugar dito na ako lang nakakaalam.

As I was walking I saw a commotion not far from where I was standing. There was a guy walking with a bunch of balloons and a teddy bear. I stared at the long fluffy brown hair he had, it's as if it kept on getting closer to me.

My eyes moved to stare at his. That's when I realized he had already stopped walking and was at my front. I was stunned and my heart was beating so fast. Lang ya ang gwapo.

He stared at me and I awkwardly smiled. Sino itong napakawapong nilalang nasa harapan ko. What the hell is wrong with me, kinikilig ako.

He gave me the bear and the balloons and bended down.

My heart skipped a beat.

People started circling at nag hihiyawan. Some were even picking up their phones and taking photos of us. Wala bang magawa sa mga buhay nila ang mga taong ito?

"Uhm" I said as I looked down at the guy, he was tying his shoe.

He stood up and took the balloons and bear.

"Thank you for holding these, I dont want to suddenly trip to the girl I'm about to ask to be my girlfriend." He said and giggled "That would be humiliating" he finished.

"Ah- walang anuman" Sabi ko habang nauutal and weakly smiled as I turned my back on him.

I feel like a walking tomato, ang pula ko na. Ano ba kasi trip nung lalakeng yun.

People started leaving and before I knew it, the guy had already left as well.

I was assuming things, what in the world was I thinking. Ang hopeless ko na talaga. Naaninag lang ako sa gwapo niya, kung anu ano na naiisip ko.

I stared at the sky and controlled my breathing. Di ako makahinga sa mga nangyayari na ito, ang bilis ng tinbok ng puso ko. I never felt this way, di ako yung tipo na nagkakagusto sa mga lalake, bihira akong ganun.

I shook my head and headed to my secret place still thinking of what the hell just happened.
