Britt 

"Pwede mo ba akong tulungan ligawan si Elizabeth?"

Bigla na lamang akong nabingi at natulala sa aking nadinig.

"H-huh ligawa--" he didn't let me finish what I was about to say.

"If you will accept the deal I will treat you everyday to your favorite food chain." He bargained.

He's talking about my favorite food chain.. Bochon. "You don't need to. Hehe." I said. I did my best to hide my pain and sadness and I guess I succeeded? "P-pero bakit ako? I mean. Yes, Elizabeth and I are really close simula nung nag transfer sya, we're doing shoppings and so ever pero bakit a-ako? Wala akong alam sa ligawan na 'yan cause I'm you know.. No boyfriend since birth.. "

"I know, I know." He said.

"Okay, Deal." Sambit ko kahit labag sa kalooban ko.. Elizabeth is already my friend kahit two weeks pa lang kaming magka-kilala.

"Really?!" sigaw niya. "Are you really serious?"

"Uh well yes. Bakit ayaw mo ba?" Kahit hindi ko gusto.

"Thank you Rallianne I promise I'll make it up to you."

"Uh hehe kahit wag na." I said nervously "so.. Una na 'ko sa room. Uh, goodluck." I said and formed a fake smile.

Bakit ganun? Kung kailan ko narealize na gusto ko siya, saka naman siya nagkagusto sa iba? Eto ba yung sinasabi ni Gwen na dulot ng pag ibig? Pero hindi pa naman ito love. Im sure of it. Like palang ito, diba?

It's Thursday already and I'm heading to our classroom but suddenly I saw Elizabeth looking at the Roses.

"Hi, good morning Eliza!" I said joyfully. Nung nakaraang araw lagi na lamang akong malungkot pero hindi naman dapat ako malungkot right? Kasi hinahangaan ko lang naman si Shawn. Oo tama paghanga lang yun.

Elizabeth was amazed on my presence.

"Oh Hi Britt." She Answered.

"You really love roses huh?" I asked.

"Of course! Nung bata pa lang ako mahilig na 'ko sa mga flowers. Sa province namin, kilala ang farm namin sa dami ng mga bulaklak, pero mas sikat ang aming roses dahil sa sobrang pagkapula noon." She said.

"Wow! By the way...Did Shawn asked you already? Uh you know.."

"To court me? Yes hihi! At first I was really shocked kasi first time ko lang maranasan yung liligawan ako." Sagot niya.

"Oh that's nice! Excuse me I'm heading to our room."

"Would you mind if I join you?"

"Yeah, sure." I said and formed a smile.

Our first class is done already at wala daw yung professor namin so pumunta muna ako ng Comfort room at Inipit ang aking buhok sa High ponytail, I also put a powder and lip balm on my face. I just want to look natural. After that I went to the field kung saan mayroong Benches doon at malalaking puno. Kinuha ko ang phone ko sa bag and texted Shawn.

To: Shawnaol

Hi, It's me Rallianne. Elizabeth likes Roses and her favorite ice cream flavour is Double Dutch. Thank me later. :)

Bakit ko ba nalaman kung anong favorite nyang ice cream flavour? Well obviously she always gets That flavour tuwing lunch time.
