"When are you going back to school?" Carlynn sadly asked on the phone. "Miss ka na namin, Euri."

Malungkot akong napangiti sa sinabi niya. "Miss ko na din kayo pero hindi pa ako sigurado kung kailan ako makakabalik sa school."

I heard her sighed. "It's fine. Naiintintidihan naman namin. Basta kung need mo ng kausap, nandito lang kami nila Austin. Okay?"

"Yeah, thank you, Lynn."

"Anyway, a guy named Xian called me pala, he was asking why you're not attending your classes and not answering your phone. Sinabi ko na lang sa kanya na may inaasikaso kang importante."

"I like you,"

"I like you,"

"I like you,"

Mabilis akong umiling para matauhan. Hanggang ngayon hindi ko pa rin makalimutan ang sinabi ni Trevor nang gabing 'yon.

I was really shocked by his confession. That night, I didn't know what to tell him since I just see him as a friend. 

And I just can't turn him down because I might hurt his feelings and I don't want that to happen. So, what I did was to tell him good night instead. Alam kong dapat sinabi ko na kay Trevor ang nararamdaman ko pero sa tingin ko ay baka iwasan niya ako kapag ginawa ko 'yon.

Natatakot ako na kapag sinabi ko sa kanyang kaibigan lang ang tingin ko sa kanya, ay magaya din siya kay Chantalle na galit na rin sa'kin.

"Earth to Euri!" Carlynn suddenly raised her voice. "Nakikinig ka ba?"

"Ha? Ah... oo,"

"Hindi ko naman itinatago ang nangyari, kaya okay lang din kung sasabihin mo ang totoo kay Xian." sagot ko habang tinitignan ang bagong bulaklak ng isang halaman.

Now that Lola's not around anymore, I think taking care of her plants in the garden became my responsibility. Well, it's not like a burden to me. Honestly, watering and seeing the plants grow calms me. Hindi naman mabigat gawin ang pag aalaga ng mga halaman paminsan-minsan.

Besides, I would love to take care of them because they are Halmoni's favorite things in this house. That also explains why she loves to have some tea here because of the relaxing view.

"He told me to tell you na he sent an email. Mga lessons daw 'yon na na-miss mo." sabi pa niya. "Pero alam mo, I smell something fishy with that guy. Is he hitting on you?"

Napailing na lang ako sa tanong niya. Minsan talaga sobrang advance niya mag isip. "Hindi, classmates lang kami."

I heard a bell rang from Carlynn's line. Break time is probably over. "I have to go na. Sana makapasok ka na next week. Also, stop making me worry! Alam ko namang nandyan si Vernon sa tabi mo, pero magparamdam ka naman samin!" she added before ended the call.

And then it hit me after she said that.

Nasapo ko ang nuo dahil bakit nga ba nakalimutan ko si Vernon? Ayos lang kaya siya o galit siya sa'kin? It's been weeks since the last time we talked!

Maybe I should send him a message right now.

Ako

Vernon, I'm very sorry hindi kita natatawagan o kahit mag send ng message sayo nitong mga nakaraang linggo. I'm not sure if you've heard about what happened to our family. But I hope you understand my situation.
