Comfortable
I inhaled and exhaled as my steps got slower and slower. Ang kamay ko ay namamawis at ang dibdib ay bumubundol sa kaba.
What the hell is happening with me?
Andy doesn't seem to notice my disposition as we continued walking past the vast soccer field.
Hindi ko naman siguro siya makikita 'di ba? But what's the matter if I'll see him anyway?
"Bakit tayo pa kasi ang nautusan ni Prof Vasquez? Nakakapagod kaya umakyat sa last floor ng college department para mahatid lang 'to sa office ng faculty!" pagrereklamo ni Andy sa tabi ko nang paakyat na kami sa hagdan.
Kami? Siya lang naman ang inutusan, nagpasama lang sa akin. But that's what we always do anyway, kahit pumupunta lang ng comfort room, nagpapasama pa.
"Ako na lang ang papasok, hintayin mo na lang ako rito," si Andy na kinuha sa akin ang iilang folders na dala ko nang sa wakas ay nasa fifth floor na kami.
I just nodded mindlessly as she disappeared into the faculty office. I surveyed the empty hallways.
Hindi ko naman siguro siya makikita 'di ba?
Pero nasa college department kami. Are there chances that I will bump into him when we go back? I hope not. At hindi ko rin alam kung ano ang course niya kaya wala siguro siya sa building na 'to.
Or so I thought...
Bumukas ang pintuan ng room sa pinakadulo ng hallway. Iniluwa noon si Luci at ang babaeng hindi ko inaasahang kasama niya. Mukhang may pag-uusapan sila.
He looks so serious as he towered in front of her, but there was a ghost of a smile that played on his lips as he stared down at the girl.
Magkaklase kaya sila sa ilang subjects? The girl is just in first year college.
Bumukas ulit ang pintuan at lumabas mula roon si Yvette, pero saglit niya lang na sinulyapan ang dalawang nag-uusap sa gilid ng pintuan.
Yvette just continued walking until she walked past me with a bitter expression.
Ibinalik ko ang tanaw kay Luci at Loreen na nag-uusap. They seemed to be talking animatedly.
Did he finally realize that Loreen is a good catch? She's smart, rich, and pretty. She got it all.
I'm happy he realized that. Loreen looks so happy as she talked to him. I never really felt or experienced it but maybe it was the feeling of being finally noticed by her crush.
Sinubukan kong ngumiti pero nagdulot lang 'yon ng kung anong pait sa aking sistema.
And I never really thought that this bland feeling will last for more than a month. Luci is still my tutor and everything has gotten worse.
His thin lips moved in a sexy manner as he explained how the equation is done. He remained an eye contact with me causing me to immediately look away.
Naging bayolente ang pihit ng puso ko kaya kailangan ko agad na lumayo.
"I'm tired, let's take a rest!" Tumayo ako mula sa stool at nagtungo sa swing sa na nasa likod ng puno ng mangga.
Natigilan siya sa pag-eexplain at umiling.
"Agad?" He chuckled as I feel his stare on my back.
Oo, agad. Let me just take a rest from your stares whenever you teach me, I can't take it.
It's been a month simula noong inamin ko na sa sarili ang nararamdaman, at parang mas lumala lang ang lahat na nakakairita na.
Kailangan kong gumawa ng paraan para mawala ang lahat ng 'to, pero paano nga ba?
