POV: Elizabeth Dela Cruz
Grade seven na, madaming mga bagong mukha, lipat na sa kabilang building.
"It's now 7th grade, new faces, going to the other building instead of the elementary one."Holy poop, takot talaga ako. Hinintay ko pa talaga ikaw, ba't late ka na pumasok?
"Holy poop, I'm really scared. I really waited for you, why did you arrive late?"May naging maliit tayo na friend group, ikaw, ako, at tawagin ko na lang siyang Kuya.
"We had a little friend group, you, me, and I'll call him Kuya."Tayong tatlo parang naging isang maliit na pamilya, kayong dalawa ay mga ate at kuya ko, at ako ang bunso.
"The three of us became a small family, the two of you as my older sister and brother, while I am the youngest."Ang sakit nun, dati turing ko lang sa'yo ay kapatid. Bakit kasi kailangan pa kita magustuhan?
"It hurts, back then I considered you as my sister. Why did I have to like-like you?"Nitong year, may nagkagusto sa akin. Gusto ko na sana maging protective ka sa akin..
"This year, someone liked me. I want you to be protective of me.."Ito din yung year na nalaman ko na Bisexual ako.
"This is also the year I found out that I was Bisexual.""Gaga, si Slushie." (Idiot, it's Slushie.)
Kuya gestured at the male near us. We literally called him Slushie for no reason, I'll call him M, M is the one who likes me.
"And so, did you finish the project you—"
"Oops! No talking about school work here!" Kuya shushed.
Okay, yun nga. Marami ako naging crush nitong grade 7. Kaya kapag umiyak ako dahil sa kanila, nagpapasalamat ako at nandyan ka para patahanin ako.
"Okay, so. I had many crushes this 7th grade. If I cried over them, I am thankful that Ace is always there to comfort me."Tapos yung time na 'di ko na talaga kaya kasi palagi ako hinahawakan ni M.
"And that time when I could not handle M always touching me out of nowhere."It was break time, so I dragged Ace to the bathroom. I looked around, no one was here except for us.
Ace looks confused on why she is here.
"Ace.." I cried out, as I finally broke down.
Ace immediately hugged me, "Bakit? Anong nangyari?"
