It's a bright sunny afternoon and we're in the middle of the discussion when I caught myself staring at him. He looks so perfect. His brown shiny eyes, his pink rosy lips, his clear skin, his pointed nose. Everything about him is perfect.
"Jayden Garcia!" Our professor shouted.
"Sir!" Napasigaw din ako sa gulat. "Yes po, sir?"
"Answer the example on the board," he said.
Math 'yung subject at kaya ko naman 'to. Medyo. Buti na lang madali lang yung example 'If f(x) = 5x - 7, find f(4) and f(-3)'
I answered it correctly. After ko sagutan 'yon, umupo na ako. Nahuli kaya ako ni Clyde na tumitingin sa kanya? Sana hindi. Pero what if kung oo? Tapos tinitignan din pala niya ako. OMG what if pangit yung side view ko sa kanya?
Nakita kong nakatingin si Louise sa akin. I looked at him and smiled. He stared at me for seconds and looked away. Ang weird ng lalaking 'to, hindi man lang marunong mag smile. Louise is my friend since we were kinder.
He's quite handsome kaya ang daming babae ang nagkakagusto sa kaniya. Ang alam ko nagka-girlfriend din ata siya noon grade 08 kami. Taray nung relationship nila ah, tumagal ng 2 years. Kakabreak lang nila nung valetine's day.
Happy breakup!
Nakinig na lang ako sa discussion dahil bukod sa gusto kong lumandi kay Clyde, gusto ko rin pumasa. Natapos na rin 'yung klase naming kaso may practice pa kami for our group project.
"Te, tara TikTok tayo yung carnival carnival I'll eat you of,"
"Tanga! Cannibal 'yon bobo!"
"Reina!" I rushed to Reina when I saw her.
"Jade!" We hugged each other tightly to the point that we can't breathe.
Nag-usap kami about the project while waiting for the others. She's been my best friend since grade 07. She knows all about me.
"Gaga, 'yan tingin pa kasi sa kanya," she teased me.
"At least, tama 'yung sagot ko," we both chuckled.
We were talking about ourselves when someone approached me. It's Clyde, my long-time crush. He's so tall. Wait kinikilig ako! Naka-smile siya sa akin habang inaabot 'yung strawberry juice.
"Akin 'to?" Parang assumera 'yung tunog ko don.
"Oo naman, bakit naman hindi 'di ba?" He chuckled.
He changed his uniform to his varsity. Team captain siya ng school namin. How can he maintain his high grades and being the basketball team captain?
"Clyde! Tara na!" His friend shouted at him. He gestured to wait for him.
