Class ended minutes ago and right now, I really needed to go back to the dorm and take a rest, laying on my cozy bed while hugging the pillows and listening to some chill music.
It's a Zamora thing.. Me and my sister are both huge fans of music. I wish she was here with me at these times.
She is the only one who understands me. Sad thing wala na siya. In another life, I would see your smile once again, ate Stella. Justice will be served soon, don't worry.
I walk past the library as I was walking in the hallway and someone grabbed my wrist and I flinched.
"Oi!" I shouted and thankfully it was just Kenneth. Again.
I pulled away from his grasp and I crossed my arms. "Bakit mo ako hinila?" tanong ko sa kanya sabay taas ng kilay.
"Well, I am just rejoicing because sa wakas, hindi mo na ako pag-iinitan dahil we are dorm mates." he smirked teasingly and I remembered everything he said back in the library.
Hindi ka na mag-aalala since starting tomorrow morning, we won't be dorm mates anymore haha, mag-paparty ka na I remember him said
Ugh, why so sudden? Why am I bothered? "Ang aga naman ah, Hindi naman rin kita pinapalayas ah.. Kahit ngayon lang, sa room ka muna matulog-" I cut off my sentence. Ba't ako lumambot nang tuluyan?
What is happening to me? 'Amabella, umayos ka please' I thought to myself.
Its not like gusto ko siya? NO! HELL NO! Its ridiculous.
"Napatigil ka?" He asked with a concerned voice. Char?
"Gusto mong room mates parin tayo?" I looked up to him and nodded. "Luh asa ka." He said and I bit my lips. Boang ka Kenneth!
"Nakakainis ka! Lumayo ka nag sa paningin ko, you peasant." I said and shoved him out of my way.
"Omg Mabel." he said behind my back that made me stop walking.
"What?" I asked bang hindi man lang lumilingon sa kanya. Gusto niya akong lumingon? Luh asa sya. It is pay back time peasant.
"Do you like me?" He asked and I turned to him. Himala Mabel, you swallowed your pride.
"As a person? Sligh, because you study law just like me." I said and continued on my tracks. May-patanong pa siya. Sampal he want?
Before I could even reach the post near the administration building which is empty as of now, I heard his voice once again. Damn, Kenneth.
"In an affectionate way. Do you like me in an affectionate way?"
Oh my gosh. What to say? I froze as he finished his sentenced. Like, I literally froze. Was it because of his question or was it because I did like him.
No! I can't. And I certainly don't. I was too focused on law school, and my friends. There's no time for me to like someone. Especially not this antipatiko na guy.
Kenneth approached and stood in front of me smiling. "I caught you off guard Mabel." I interrupted him.
Damn. "I don't!" sabi ko nang may paninindigan. I was always certain about my words. And I hope this time, I am. Because I do.. AAAAAA Why is this so hard.
"Don't be so in denial." he pulled of a smug look. Luh? Kairita. "Sabi ko ngang hindi eh, don't be so full of yourself boi" I smirked at him and he just smiled and looked away playfully.
"You're cute." he squished my cheeks and I felt my heart skipped a beat. What did he just do? What the heck? Lagot ka talaga sakin Kenneth Jimuel, balang araw pagsisisihan mo to.
"I know." I simply said at his so called compliment and walked away from this jerk. "Teka lang, asan ka papunta? Sa Club nanaman?" Tanong niya at sumabay sa aking paglalakad.
"Great assumption but no. Gusto ko na talagang magpahinga ngayon."
"I'm echausted." dagdag ko and he just giggled. "What a miracle, isang aroganteng Mabel? Sasabihing she is exhausted? Haha you are full of surprises." He said and I slapped his arm.
"You don't have pake on my life okay?" I told him with a stern voice
As we reached in front of the two storey dorm, we saw the land lady walking towards our way.
Oh, is she gonna inform me about Kenneth na lilipat na siya? Haha I already know na po. No need na po. I thought to myself.
"Good afternoon sa inyung dalawa." she greeted us and we greeted her back sabay ngiti. damn, I don't even wanna hear her say it. Please, it's uncomfortable and different.
"Uhm, I have to talk to both of you, and maybe nasabi na sayo ni Kenneth iha-" she said and I interrupted her with a yes
"The thing is, hindi muna makakalipat si Kenneth say bago niyang lilipatan na kwarto." the landlady said and there's a part of me ma gustong mag-tatalon sa saya.
Hindi na say lilipat ngayon. Heck, why am I happy? I am so full of questions this day. Just because of Kenneth. Oh my, kasalanan niya to.
Nagkatinginan na lamang kami ni Kenneth "Bakit naman?" we said in unison and the land lady tucked a strand of her hair onto her ear and sighed.
She explained why and it is because mayroon pa palang kailangang ayusin sa lilipatan ni Kenneth and it might take a month before matapos.
Great, give me a champagne right now. Charot.
After her explanation, the land lady bid farewell to us because marami pa siyang dapat gawin. Same for me, I badly needed rest right now.
I proceed to the room with Kenneth beside me, but he's acting different. He became silent for some quite time. Baka marami siyang iniisip this moment.
"What happened to your loudness?" I asked him and he just pouted.
"Am I ugly?" He asked and I broke into laughter. What's with his odd question?
"Omg yeah, ngayon no lang narealize? Oh gosh you are so hideous." I joked and he whined.
"Are you even serious??" tanong niya
I laughed even harder at his silliness and patted him, "Ofcourse not, walang ginawang panget ang Diyos ok? Lahat ng tao, pantay-pantay sa mata niya kaya don't be insecure.." I told him and he smiled at me.
I fixed my glasses and spoke up once again, "Be yourself, accept your flaws and imperfections. You are unique.. Kaya wag kana nang mag drama diyan.." I said and both of us laughed.
