"So basically those are all the steps that you need for the first part of the dance." Panuto ni Sir pagkatapos niyang ituro ang mga steps na kailangan naming gawin. "You must add atleast four of your own choreography to it for the second round, okay? I'll leave you guys to practice. By Monday next week, you will perform your dances in your practicum, understood?"
The class responded in unison, watching as the teacher gave final instructions and left the gymnasium. Si Shane na ang nagsupervise sa practice, at sa pagplay ng music bumalik na sa positions ang mga studyante.
I took in a breath and met Gabriel's hand. Contrary to his cold expression, his hands were very warm, very much like a man's. Once again, he placed the back of his hand on my upper back, a gesture I came to really appreciate.
Mukang nahalata niya yata yung reactions ko no'ng pinapanood namin ang demonstrations ni sir. Laking pasalamat ko at he decided to opt for that act. I don't know about other women, pero ang-awkward talaga sa feeling ang ganon! Hay, ngayon ko lang nahalata, but he's quite the gentleman.
Hindi nga lang maalis sa isip ko yung nakita ko kanina. Saglit lang man, it was as though it was imprinted in my mind. How many times had I seen him actually smile? Para sa isang tulad niya, it was a rare view - and it somehow made me feel... flustered.
"Ay sorry!" Sambit ko, my gaze lowered as I noticed the mistake in footwork I committed.
Tumango lang siya at ipinagpatuloy ang pag-sayaw kasabay sa iba naming kaklase. Nakaka-hiya namang ka-partner ito. Ilang beses lang ba naming prinactice ang mga steps eh parang master na niya?
I took in a breath and focused on the dance, shaking my head as I did so. Kasi naman Grace eh, kung ano ano ini-isip mo! I anchored my gaze on his blue clothed chest. Wow, first time kong nakita na hindi bukas butones nito ah. In an instant the memory of the dream I had that night flashed in my mind. He wore the same shade of blue.
I felt my mind begin to be clouded with questions. What could that dream mean? Maka-ilang beses ko na ring sinubukang sabihin sa sarili ko na bunga lang yun ng sarili kong utak - pero bakit hanggang ngayon iba pa rin ang epekto sa'kin pag naaalala ko yun?
Inangat ko ang paningin at sandali siyang sinulyapan. Oh dear, goodness. He truly is the epitome of an attractive man. His eyes shaped almond bore the color of raven, his straight nose a striking feature, and his slightly tanned yet fare skin made him stand out among the men in the class - heck, maybe among the entire school for that matter. I bit my lip in uncertainty.
Natigilan ako nang bigla niyang ibaba ang tingin, meeting my gaze as he did so. I felt my heart jump, and I lowered my head in haste.
Naku, Lord... how do I deal with these feelings? Please, help me. I know full-well Your word. I can't be yoked with an unbeliever. So Lord please, please deal with my heart. If it's Your will, then show me how it will work, but Lord if it's not; expel it from my life. I love You more than anything - anyone.
