LOVE-NAT, isang makulit na love story! ♥ [2 of 2]

Chapter 52-2. AyosDito.ph

Umupo si Borge sa may bench ng MUP field. Nakatitig lang siya sa kawalan, ni hindi niya napapansin si Nico na siyang nagpra-practice pa ng soccer. They’re friends, yeah. Oo, yun ang totoong status nila:FRIENDS.

Borge might be Ellie’s best friend… but that doesn’t mean they have the SAME personalities. Ellie is the type of girl who is afraid of the mere concept of falling in love. Borge, on the other hand, is a hopeless romantic & a strong believer of fairytales & happy endings. Kaya naman pag sinabi ni Borge na gusto niya si Ralph Nico Villamor… Gusto niya talaga ito!! And she wouldn’t back down a second to make him fall for her kahit na alam niya from the start na one-sided lang ang lovestory niyang ito.

Kung si Ellie panay ang negatibo ang pagtingin sa love… well, ibahin niyo si Beatrice Gong-Gora Natividad!! Para sakanya being FRIENDS with Nico is a 0.01% na possibility na ikasal sila sa future HAHA… at least merong chance!! At bakit, doon naman daw talaga nagsisimula ang lahat ah? Haha.

Usually talaga, kapag may oras na manood si Borge ng practice laging nakangiti ang dalaga’t walang kapaguran sa kaka-cheer doon sa bench. But today… today was rather different. She had her mind drifting somewhere else. She barely noticed the warning of the darkening sky. It was about to rain.

“Hmmm…” She blew the strands of hair across her forehead and rested her chin on her folded knees. Obviously, something was bothering her.

“Ehy,” Borge looked up & was slightly surprised when she realized that it was Nico, who was already holding an umbrella & sheltering her from the rain. “Mukang malalim iniisip mo aa?”

“Uh…” Namula ang pisngi ng dalaga at agad itong napatayo, which made her blush even more kasi she had his face close to her. Malaking pasasalamat na lang ni Borge na mejo maliit yung payong kaya kailangan nilang magsiksikang dalawa. YEHESSS… meaning… CLOSER!! Haha.

Medyo pawis na pawis pa nga ang binata ee, his white shirt was blotted with sweat & mud. Pero kahit ata maligo sa putikan itong si Nico ee hindi pa rin magdadalawang isip si Borge na mahalin toh!! Hahaha. Oh diba, ganyan si Borge!!

“You’re unusually quiet today.” Nico added. “Masama ba pakiramdam mo?” Biglang dumapo ang kamay ni Nico sa noo ng dalaga.

“H-hindi.” Borge stuttered, smiling. Pinipigilan niyang wag mangisay sa kilig doon. Kung sine-swerte ka nga naman talaga oh!! Pinapanalangin tuloy niya na sana lumakas pa lalo yung ulan. Haha. “M-may iniisip lang ako!”

“C’mon. We better go.” Yaya ng binata and he looked at Borge for a second before placing his arm around her shoulder and pulled her close to his side. “Tara!”

Dumiretso ang dalawa sa may gymnasium ng MUP kung saan naroon ang locker room ng mga varsity players. Nico excused himself for a moment while Borge decided to wait outside the gym. Nakatayo ang dalaga sa may hallway which would lead back to the class rooms sa may ground floor. She leaned against the wall habang pinapanood ang bawat pagpatak ng ulan.

“Oy, Borge!” Tawag ni Japo sa kaibigan habang nasa malayo pa ito. He was already soaking wet and had to use his notebook to cover himself from the pouring rain as he went running towards  Borge. “Bakit nandito ka pa?”

Borge smiled. “Hinihintay ko si Nico. May practice sila ng soccer.”

Japo nodded, smiling teasingly at her. “Ikaw ah! Kinarir mo na yang panliligaw mo! Haha.” Tumawa ito habang sinusubukang tuyuin ang sarili.

“Gagu. At least ako, gumagawa ng paraan.” Parinig ni Borge sa kaibihan na siyang napakamot na lang sa ulo. “Eh teka, ikaw? Thought you’d be visiting Max?” Oo. Lagi talagang bumibisita si John Paul kay Max. Maybe because of guilt. Lagi yang may dalang pagkain, prutas o cake para kay Max. Ganyan talaga yan kabait. He felt rather responsible for what had happened to his friend.
