With sweating palms, I took a deep breath. I probably look like a mess right now.

"Come on Peng, we're here for almost 2 hours. I'm already hungry"

I rolled my eyes. "Kailan ba hindi?"

"Hindi pa ba lumalabas?" Arm asked me.

"Wala pa eh" I said before peaking again.

We are currently sitting on the soccer field. It's my crush's birthday and I'm planning to give him my present but he is nowhere to be found.

"Wait, there he is! "

My eyes shifted to where Tay is pointing. Ang tapang ko kanina na binuo ay agad napalitan ng kaba.

"Ano? Puntahan mo na! " Tay said while getting up and pulling me up.

Gun is currently walking at the covered walk towards the gate with his friends. I almost lost my breath when I saw him laughed.

I met Gun when we bumped at each other way back on freshman year. He is already a known snob and hot headed person so I'm expecting a shout or whatever from him but he surprisingly apologized to me.

After that incident, he never left my mind. How his eyes looked at me apologetically and how his lips pouted .

We rarely see each other because we were buildings apart but whenever nagkakasalubong kami, I will automatically take a left/ right/ u turn.

My friends will just looked at me weirdly until it happened often and that's where I noticed that I have a crush on Gun Atthaphan Phunsawat.

Despite having a crush on a boy, my friends didn't judged me. Instead, I have their full support.

"Peng/ Off!" Tay and Arm shouted at me.

"What? "

"Wala na sila Gun! Ang bobo mo naman Peng, ibibigay mo lang yang regalo mo oh" Tay whined.

"Oh, bat ikaw ang nagrereklamo? " tanong ko.

"Wala lang, gusto ko lang paki mo ba?" Tay shot me a weird face.

"Oh ano na plano mo ngayon, nandyan na si Gun kanina pinakawalan mo pa" saad ni Arm.

"Tsk. Wag na nga lang, hindi na din naman nya ako siguro tanda" I said before staring at the paper bag I'm holding.

"Sayang rolex, akin nalang Peng" agad kong sinapak si Tay.

"Aray, tangina mo inaano kita dyan"

I just smiled sweetly at him.

"Bar nalang tayo mamaya" aya ni Arm.

"Pass, may tinatapos pa akong series"

"Kami o yung series? Sino mas mahal mo" Tay asked.

"Syempre si Gun, sino pa ba? Uwi na ako ha, umuwi na din kayo wag na kayo magbar"

"Whatever, bye"

"Bye Peng, bye Arm" pagpapamaalam ko sa huling pagkakataon at dumiretso sa sasakyan ko.

~•~

I was in the middle of a thrilling scene when suddenly, my phone ringed. I reached for it and looked at the caller.

"Punyeta naman Peng" I whispered.

"Hello?! " I greeted.

"Hello Peng? Nasa inyo ka ba?"
