Thalia Axhiana Veron
"Woi Thalia, blooming ka! What's happening to you ba? Na-cucurious na ako sa mga kinikilos mo these past few weeks. It seems like you're like a worm wriggling due to kilig e," sabi ni Shiela habang nakapatong ang mga pisngi sa kanyang knuckles.
Natatawa akong tumingin sa kanya. "Conyo mo, Shiela!"
I released a solace puff. "Tahimik na kasi ang buhay ko. Sa wakas, 'di na ako ginugulo ni Hades. Nakakagaan sa feeling knowing na wala nang hihipo-hipo sa akin out of a sudden," tuwang-tuwa kong saad, at saka bonus na rin yo'ng katabi ko si Cody. It's been two weeks since hindi ako dinadapuan ng tingin ni Hades at hindi rin siya gumagawa ng kung anu-anong ways para magkaroon kami ng interaction kaya super happy talaga ako.
"Wag kang pakampante, Thalia. I'm sure, he's just giving you space because as what you've said to me last week...You vent out your rants upon him. For sure, he's just distancing himself temporarily, but not permanently 'cause knowing Hades...He's not going to indulge you to get rid of him not until you already warm his bed."
"Shiela, you're ruining my good mood," I uttered monotonously. But I couldn't deny that she has a point, kinabahan tuloy ako bigla. Argh! No! Ba't ako kakabahan? As if namang I'll let him own me, that will never happen!
"What? I'm just stating the fact, Thalia. Si Hades pa? For sure, 'di ka niya titigilan hanggang hindi ka pa niya naikakama."
I heaved a breath.
"Pero ayaw mo talaga siyang i-try? Napakagaling niya raw talaga. Surely, magkakaroon ka ng first and ever best sex experience mo sa buong buhay mo. Don't you really like to do it with him?" she taunted.
I glared at her and abruptly shook my head. "Hindi sa gano'ng lalaki ko ipagkakalulo ang sarili and besides I want to experience my first with my future husband."
"Okay, okay. I forgot you're against pre-marital sex nga pala. Oh, sige ikaw na! Ikaw na! Ikaw na ang birhen!" sabi ni Shiela habang paulit-ulit nag-bow ng head sa aking harapan.
I gently poked her forehead. "Timang! Oh sige, I'll go ahead na."
We bid farewell to each other as we parted ways to head ourselves at our designated departments.
I was taken aback when I entered my next class because our professor was way too early than his usual time of arrival inside the room. I apologized for being late as I abruptly threw myself on the chair.
Tahimik ang naging buong klase namin and thankful ako na walang binigay na task sa amin ngayon. Hindi naman na necessarily na i-detail ko pa kung anong nangyari sa buong discussion, diba? Wala naman kasi kaming ginawa eh, nakinig lang kami sa mga bagay na dinadada-dada ng lecturer namin.
"Are you okay? You seem so stiff since I perch beside you. Ayaw mo ba akong katabi?" Cody asked me bolt of a sudden. Nagulat ako nang bigla niya akong i-approach ng ganito. I made a quick check to myself and he was right, ang stiff-stiff nga ng posture ko para akong timang. Damn, ganito ba ang itsura ko sa buong dalawang linggong nakakatabi ko siya sa upuan?!
I wagged my head. "No, no gusto kaya kita!" dali-dali kong tugon sa kanya and I even smiled confidently as if I didn't blurt out something absurd.
Halatang nagulat siya sa sinabi ko while I saw Hades swivelled his gaze at me. It's been two weeks since he didn't speak up with me nor laid glances in my direction, but he just did it now.
"What did you say?" Hades interrupted as I saw his jaw tightened.
My eyes abruptly dilated when I realized what I just said. I waved my hands in mid-air and explained myself. "I mean, gusto ko siyang katabi kaysa sayo," sabat ko rito at agad ko ring inilipat ang tingin ko kay Cody. "I just want to clear up myself what I mean of gusto kita is gusto kitang katabi not the other way around wherein gusto kita intimately," saad ko rito at halatang pinipigilan niya ang kanyang sarili na matawa sa kabuangan ko.
I avoid my stares, but I instantly turned my head back at him and I saw him gently swished his head and mouthed the word 'cute' while smiling.
Agad ko ulit inalis ang mga tingin ko sa kanya as I secretly bit my lower lip to suppress myself from grinning.
Cute? Am I the one he was pertaining to? I asked in my thought as if it will give me a certain answer.
My thoughts were suddenly interrupted when someone called my name.
"Thalia, pinapatawag ka ni Mr. Georid sa office. He wants to talk with you," Ika ni Kara, one of my classmates.
Tumango ako sa kanya at saka iginawad ang aking sarili palabas ng silid.
