confession

April, 2019.
10th Grade.

callie wasn't the type of person to have multiple crushes like the others, sabi niya okay lang daw yung isa kasi kahit sabihin na "more chances of winning", hindi pa rin naman siya mananalo. well, it's definitely fine for her in the first place, just admiring the person she likes from afar. okay na okay na sa kanya iyon.

even though her best friend, wonwoo keeps urging her to confess since last year naman na nila sa high school "daw", why not? baka nga raw hindi na sila magkita after all these kasi magkakaiba na sila ng mga school, so she pulled all her courage to confess one day— in an empty parking lot ng school nila, at least diba? less hiya.

well she thought so.

as she approached the man fixing their bike getting ready to leave, callie slowly and softly ran behind the man's back as she tries to think what to say first before confessing.

"bukas naman moving up, wala naman mawawala" she whispers to herself but then, "huh?" the man turns his back with a confused expression towering down over callie and realizing how close they are... a little. she steps back to breathe some air as he was just looking at her eyes probably telling her to speak already.

"hi jihoon!" she says enthusiastically which made jihoon flinch from where he is standing, callie noticed that. she fiddles with her fingers as she stutters, "ano kasi... uh," she starts off looking anywhere except from jihoon's stare.

"hoy! ano oras na umuwi na kayo!" they both turn their heads and see the guard calling for them, she looks at her watch and sees it was almost six in the evening, katatapos lang kasi ng moving up practice nila kanina and her best friend wonwoo was fetched by his parents and will eat somewhere and ngayon, hinihintay niya na lang pinsan niyang magsusundo sa kanya.

"may... sasabihin ka ba?" she turns her head back and locked gazes with jihoon who's also fiddling the hem of his uniform while he slowly unties something from his bike, "ano kasi jihoon... uh... sana hindi tayo maging awkward? about this well ano kasi," she stutters again feeling her cheeks heat up from the embarassment in front of the boy she likes.

jihoon hummed and waited patiently for the woman to finish her words.

"crush kita kuya," she said sheepishly,

"okay." jihoon says bluntly.

it was quiet at first... and callie knew she was rejected but felt like it hasn't sunked in yet about how blunt he is. so the first instinct she did was back off, turning her heels and ran for her life leaving the boy in the middle of the parking lot alone. she finds a seat a little far from the parking lot just to ease her hearbeat that was really beating fast, also slapping both of her cheeks to stop them from heating up.

"gago, ganon pala ma-reject" she laughs to herself as she realizes how much humiliation she have done, "hindi! okay lang... marami tao bukas, we will rarely interact well tangina never naman talaga kami nag-interact ano ba 'tong dinadada dada ko," she sighs as she whimpers in her seat bringing out her phone and sees three missed calls from her cousin who apparently is already outside the campus.

she got her bags and walked fast as she passes the hallway from the parking lot and sees that jihoon already left.

definitely one of her treasure humiliation memories that she'll bring forever.
