I

Paalis na ako. I went down stairs para makapag paalam kay mama. 

"Ma. I'm going to watch UAAP game today." sabi ko kay mama na inaayos mga laruan ni Thirdy bunsong kapatid ko. 

" Sinong kasama mo?" my mom is very protective matagalang proseso 'to bago ako makaalis ng bahay para makapaglibot.

"Eunesse and Mavy sa MOA Arena po kami manunuod, don't worry ma Mavy will take me home before 9:00 pm" she raised her left eyebrow. 

"I'm sure ma. Di ko naman kayo lolokohin eh." sabi ko then I smiled. Ugh I hate being a little child  for this.

"Sige. Dito ka ba magdi'dinner?" tanong ni mama. "At bakit ganyan lang suot mo?" I looked my self in the mirror. Tee shirt, skinny pant and vans. Why is there anything wrong? 

"Bakit po ma. Eh manunod lang po kami ng game eh." tumango naman sya. "di na po ako dito kakain. Pakisabi po kay yaya wag ng magluto ng marami for dinner." sabi ko tapos I kiss her cheek.

"Bye ma" then lumabas na ako ng bahay. Sakto may taxi na palabas ng subdivision. I hailed the cab at sinabi ko kung saan ako papunta. 

After 30 minutes nakarating na ako sa MOA. 

I called Mavy to know where are they.

"Hello Mavy? Where are you guys?"

"Here at the entrance magmadali ka señorita." nagmadali naman akong naglakad papuntang entrance. I saw both of them.

"Sige I saw you na" then binaba ko na ang phone.

"HI Janella!!!" Eunesse and Mavy hugged me. I'm with them yesterday. Ganun ba sila makamiss ang bilis naman. 

"Easy we're together yesterday." I said. Then we all laughed.

"Oh come on na the game will start na yata." said Mavy.

We entered the Arena. WOW sea of Yellow and Green. 

Umupo kami sa upper  part. "Guys you didn't bother to buy food" reklamo ko.

"We forgot! Later after the game kakain nalang tayo" said Eunesse.

The game is so intense pati mga kasama ko napapa'tili sa sobrang ganda ng laban, but I'm just eyeing on one person. Actually start palang ng game.

The way he holds the ball, shoots and when the announcer calls his name it- it's very different.

 "Hey whats up?" tanong ni Eunesse. I'm back in my senses.

"Tapos na ang game oh." pointing on the scoreboard.

"I know. Panalo ang UST. So sa Finals UST vs ADMU. " I said pero nakatingin parin ako dun sa guy. Who's wearing jersey number 7.

Fortuna 7.

"Yup that  would be great" sabi ni Mavy sounding like a fangirl.

Papasok na sila sa dogout pero nakatingin parin ako kay Fortuna. 

Then he lift his head. OMG. He saw me looking at him. 

This is so embarassing! But I smiled anyway. Then he smiled back at me!

"Janella! Lets go. Kanina pa kita tinatawag what are you doing there." reklamo ni Eunesse.

I smiled at her. " Nothing. Come on" My mood turn from being bored into happy one.

We went to Yellow Cab to eat our dinner. 

"Janella. Kanina ka pa. Smilling with no reason tapos tulala. Na'engkanto ka ba?"  Tanong ni Mavy then they laughed.

" Duh. Ikaw nga yung Jeron ng Jeron eh. Tapos Ikaw Eunesse Jeric ka ng Jeric." sabi ko imitating their voices.

"OMG the Teng brothers!" sabi naman ni Eunesse. Kinikilig pa. 

But suddenly I remembered Fortuna. 

"Hey you." Mavy poked me. " Kanino ka nagwapuhan sa mga players. Wag mong sabihing wala" the both of them waiting for my answer.

" Uh" will I tell them? Why not just a crush lang.

" One UST player." then yung mga mata nila parang nagningning. Baliw.

"Whooooo? Come on tell us!" excited nilang tanong.

"Fortuna the guy na #7 yung jersey. He's cute." I said then they both giggled.

" He's Jeric Marco Fortuna" sabi ni Eunesse.

"Wait how'd you know him?" tanong ko kay Eunesse.

" heartthrob yan ng UST"  she said. "you like him?" tanong uli ni Eunesse.

"I don't know. He's cute. Handsome" sabi ko. Then inasar nila ako. -_-

We're done eating.  Mavy took me home. Maaga akong nakauwi. I went to my room to take a rest. Jeric Marco Fortuna. 

When that name replays on my head. automatically my lips will curve into a smile. 

I opened my twitter account then I searched his name and followed him.
