Chapter 1Vanilla Shake
"Lou!" malakas na sigaw ni Gigi matapos matanggap ang bola mula sa kalaban.
Tumakbo ako patungo sa likod para mas madaling makatalon ng mataas. I bended my knees before starting to run towards the ball. Walang kahiraphirap na na toss ni Lou ang bola sa direksyon ko.
I jumped and my hand landed at the ball perfectly. Malakas ko itong pinalo sa kabilang panig. Hingal akong nakababa sa pinagmulan kong talon.
Umalingawngaw ang malakas na tunog ng pito. Indicating that the match has ended. Sinara bukas ko pa ang kamay na pinaghampas ko sa bola saka binigyan ng tingin si Lou.
"No sweat." I boastfully said before turning my gaze at the score board.
"19-25." Gigi whispered. Sabay sabay kaming naglakad sa gitna para makipagkamay sa mga kalaban.
Kita ko ang malumanay na mukha ng iba sakanila. Some of them also had a hint of hope on their eyes.
We're all wiping our sweat using the towel our coaches handed us nang lumapit si coach para magbati.
"Congrats everyone, you did great. Isang set nalang at finally, road to nationals na tayo!" our coach happily said.
*knock knock*
"Nyx anak, gising na malelate ka pa sa unang araw ng klase mo!" dinig kong sigaw ni mommy sa labas.
Pikit mata akong napaupo at minasahe ang noo ko.
"Gising na!" sagot ko habang patuloy na minamasahe ang noo. With that natigil ang malakas na katok.
Panaginip lang pala...
That would be the greatest game I ever played, sadly natalo kami.
It was against the greatest volleyball girls team way back in middle school. We played a full set, and it was tiring as fuck.
Bumangon na ako at sinimulang ayusin ang kama, matapos non ay dumiretso na ako sa banyo para makapag ligo na din.
Inalis ko ang cellphone ko sa pagkacharge at nilagay ito sa loob ng bag. I left it open since I might still put some stuffs inside.
Tamad akong napatingin sa orasan bago naupo sa harap ng vanity.
I took the hair brush beside me and started brushing my hair. Matapos non ay naglagay lang ako ng sunscreen at lip balm na medyo tinted.
After that, I opened the drawer near my bed to get my extra charger, powerbank and airpods. Suot ko na din ang uniform kong sobrang ikli ng skirt. Kaunti nalang ipakita ko na yung pwet ko dito 'e. No joke.
I turned the ac off, bago ko walang ganang binitbit ang bag ko. Pinatay ko na din ang ilaw at sinimulan nang lumabas.
Pagkalabas na pagkalabas ko kita ko yung kapatid kong nakahilata sa couch tabi ng hagdan pababa. Tulad ko ay handa na din siya umalis.
Matalim ko siyang tinignan since I think he didn't even notice my presence, busy lamang itong naglalaro ng kung ano sa celllphone.
"Woi." mahinang tawag ko.

Greatest Trophy
RomanceAll I wanted was to win the game. Maybe because the feeling of winning something is definitely the best situation you could ever be. The idea of falling in love never crossed my mind. I mean, it's not all about winning right? But I of course, I won...
