Ride Of Love (Dream #1)

Chapter 2

Ilang araw na ang nakalipas at paulit-ulit lang ang ginagawa ko. Visit my mom, hang out with my friends, and studying. I have a boring life you see.

I am standing infront of the mirror while buttoning my uniform when I stopped midway. I suddenly remembered what happened that night.

He said that I'm his crush and even shouted it. Good thing there was no one there because it's already so late. I can't understand why I can't get it off my mind. It's been bugging me for days.

No one has ever been so bold to me like him. Many guys has confessed to me but they did it after a week or two. Not like him! We just met two times and he already said that!

No, don't be a paranoid Viyanna. It's not like his asking to court you, he just said that you are his crush. Crush is just like an admiration. Maybe he just admire you. What the hell am I saying!

Before I get frustated from overthinking, I decided to stop. I am now standing infront of the store where I usually wait for a jeepney to ride on.

I was busy fixing my ID when I saw a familiar jeepney approaching. I was about to turn away but it was too late.

"Ma'am Viyanna sumakay na kayo!" The driver shouted. I looked around to find that guy but it seems he's not here.

"Si Gibo ba ang hinahanap niyo?" Tanong ng driver kaya napatingin ako sa kanya. I didn't expect him to ask that.

"Ah.. wala po akong hinahanap." Kahit natuliro ay pinilit kong ngumiti. Mukha na siguro akong natatae dahil ang lakas ng tawa ni manong.

Sumakay na ako sa front seat kung saan katabi noong driver. Nang makarating sa school ay inabot ko ang bayad ko sa kanya ngunit tinanggihan niya rin tulad noong nakaraan.

"Wag na Ma'am Viyanna. Hindi ko po pinapabayad ang mga kaibigan ni Gibo." He said, trying to decline even though I keep insisting.

"Wag niyo na po ako tawaging ma'am, manong." I awkwardly suggested. I feel awkward when he calls me ma'am. Pauso lang naman 'yan ng taong iyon.

Because he just keep on declining, I didn't force him to take the money and just get off in the jeepney.

Since it's my first day of my fifth year, taking architecture. Wala kaming gaanong ginagawa.

Or maybe because I'm used to this situation that I don't feel pressure at all. Besides I've been studying in advance during our break so I don't have any difficulty on our topics.

Nang matapos ang klase ay nagkita-kita kami ng mga kaibigan ko. We are not in the same university. Si Vianne lang ang schoolmate ko, though we don't see each other often because we take different courses.

We are six, totally. Vianne, Cyrell, Rina, Rhianna, Stanley, and me. Vianne is the badass type or the wild type in our group, same as Stanley. He's a gay and we accept and love him. Though, sayang siya dahil ang gwapo niya.

Cyrell is silent, she only cares about her books. Rhianna is the most talkative while Rina is like a mother to all of us.

I'm just silent but talkative sometimes, it depends on my mood. In short I'm the moody type. But I really appreciate them for understanding my behavior.

"Ang toxic today kahit first day!" Frustrated na sabi ni Vianne.

"Oo nga. Haggard na ako't lahat, fresh parin to." Turo sa akin ni Rhianna. I stoped sipping from my Iced coffee when I heard what she said.

"Uyy wag kang ganyan te! Baka english-in ka niyan ni bakla, dugo ang maging sauce diyan sa kinakain mo." Tukoy ni Stanley sa spaghetting kinakain ni Rhianna.
