Chapter 04

Three days had passed, he never came to me to annoy me. After that day he never talked to me. But, when we saw each other he will just nod and then walked. I miss him. Am I having a little crush on him? I dont know either.

"Claire, can I asked about this lesson?" My classmate asked. Medjo hirap siya sa dito sa subject na ito.

"Sure." I said with a smile. I'm not madamot in sharing my abilities, skills to some people, I am willing to share it to them lalo na if they dont excel to that abilities and im good at it.

"Thank you Claire." He smiled.

"Welcome" I smiled too.

I have two hours vacant. Im going to spend it at Library. Gagawin ko na rin yung mga gagawin ko. Library were my favorite spot. When I entered at the library, I'm the only student here.

Just when i started reading my book someone suddenly talked!

"Kapag yung iba ang nagtatanong ang laki laki ng ngiti." He said in a low voice enough for me to hear it.

"What do you mean?" I Lowered down my voice. I rolled my eyes at him.

"Forget it." He sighed. He didn't talked to me for almost four days.  Now he's talking to me but he didn't even give a damn reason why he wasn't talking to me!

He's now reading beside me. I'm trying to focus on reading this lesson pero naka ilang ulit na ako sa paragraph na ito hindi ko magets!

"Are you okay? Parang galit na galit ka sa libro." He suddenly talked! Muntik ko nang mabitawan ang hawak ko. What's happening? "Hey, easy." He smirk.

"Bigla bigla ka kaseng nagsasalita!"

"Shhh, lower down your voice Claire. Were at the library." Nakangiti parin siya nang sabihin iyon. I just rolled my eyes at him. "Nagtataray nanaman siya." Hindi ko na siya pinansin.

We continue reading our book. After thirty minutes, I put my book on the table and get my binder to answer the problem.

"Kailan-" bago niya pa matapos ang sasabihin niya nagsalita na ako.

"Shh, I need to focus." I said in a low voice. He just nodded.

After I solved all of the problem. I packed up. I almost forgot that Nathaniel is with me.

"Were are you going?" He closed his book.

"Garden..."

"I want to come." I just nodded and walked. Nang hindi ko siya maramdaman an sumunod nilingon ko siya. Then I saw him standing there naka tanga! "Hindi ka gagalaw jaan?'

"Ito na." He gave me a small smile. We walked to the garden. This were my second favorite spot. Garden have so many flowers, trees, butterflies, birds, Bermuda grass where you can sit. May small cabinets were blankets were placed. In the middle part of the garden merong falls that adds calm sound.

"Wait, I'll get some blanket." He went to the cabinet near the tree. After he get one blanket he placed it on the grass.

"Thanks" I murmured. We sat on the blanket and enjoyed the view. I broke the silence. " Why aren't you talking to me for almost four days?"

"You said your mad. Sorry, hindi talaga kita napansin na nasa harapan na kita." Now he look sincere.

"Saying sorry?" I chuckled. "That word is not even in your vocabulary." I smiled.

"Yeah, saying sorry doesn't even my thing!" He laughed.

"Why are saying this now?" I smiled. I like his company so much!

"I don't know either." He smiled getting shy. Ang cute naman nito!

"Apology accepted." I smiled. Sana worth it naman yung pagpapatawad ko sa kanya. We stayed there until our vacant ends.

Lunch time comes. I put my things in my locker. Ella and I planned that we will eat lunch together. When i arrived at the cafeteria Ella is already there. She wave her hand to get my attention.

"Claire, I missed you so much!" She hug me. "Oh gosh ang dami kong activities! Thats why I can't go here for almost four days!"

"I miss you too! How are you? Kumakain ka ba sa tamang oras?" I asked. Umiling siya. " Always eat on time Ella. Hindi pwedeng puro activities nalang ang gagawin mo. Aanuhin mo yang pagaaral kung magkakasakit ka rin pagkatapos? Tandaan mo health always comes first. Hindi mo mapapakinabanhan ang pinagaralan mo kapag nagkaroon ka ng sakit."

"Ok, ok. Minsan lng naman ako magpalipas ng gutom" she reasoned.

"Kahit na, Always Eat on time, Ella." Sinamaan ko siya ng tingin. She nodded.

"Napapadalas DAW ang pagsama mo sa lalaking Cordova?" She ask. "Ilang araw lang akong absent sa buhay mo, may iba ka nang kaibigan." She pouted.

"That guy? Pinagbigyan ko lang kanina yun." I lied. Alam ko sa sarili kong hindi ko LANG pinagbigyan yun. Ginusto ko rin na makasama siya.

"So, magkasama pa kayo kanina?" She teased. I just nodded. "Ikaw ha"

"Shut up Ella" I rolled my eyes. "Just eat. Nagbreakfast ka na ba?"

"Not yet"

"What!? Pumapasok ka ng hindi kumakain!?" Kunot noong sabi ko.

"Nagshoshort pera ko. Hindi umqqbot ng 1 month allowance ko." She said in a low voice. "Hindi pa ako matanggap sa mga inaaplayan kong trabaho."

"What!? Ano ba yung inaaplayan mo?" I ask. "Sa restaurant na pinagtatrabahuhan ko. Malaki rin ang sahod dun."

"Ok I'll try." She agreed. We ate our lunch together. "What's your next schedule?"

"Engineering Lab."

"Sayang akala ko vacant mo." Malungkot na sabi niya.

"Katatapos lang kanina 2 hours." I said. While packing my things.

"Alright, see you tomorrow!" She wave a goodbye. She kissed me first on cheeks.

"See you tomorrow Ella. Take care! Eat on time." She just nodded.

After that I just did my scheduled for this afternoon. Hindi pare parehas yung schedule namin. Every week nagbabago ang schedule. Thats one of the rules here in this school. At first maguguluhan ka sa mga sched. Pero masasanay ka din. Ibibigay na nila sayo yung schedule ng class ng isang buwan.

"Hi, Claire Rivera." Someone talked. His voice weren't familiar.
