Unfamiliar Feeling Called, Love?

Chapter 42

KISHA's PoV

"I'm sorry Jhared, may usapang bonding na kasi kami nina Hannah and Harvey for that day."

"Okay, I understand. Have fun."

I can't forget how his voice sounded sad that time even if his eyes from afar weren't showing it.

"Hays." sinubsob ko nalang ang ulo ko sa mesa from being nakalumbaba.

I was just really bothered by the fact that he never attended this big event once, at ngayong may balak siyang umattend ay mukhang hindi na matutuloy.

I'm such an inconsiderate person.

I shook off my thoughts, heaved a sigh, and put my focus back on the website where I can purchase the tickets for the aforesaid event.

Guess, I'm really affected huh.

"Waaaahh! Next week na pala yung provincial founding fair!"
"Oo nga!"
"Buti nalang week-loog yun, kaya whole walang pasok! Waaaah!"
"Excited na'ko!"
"Ako rin!"
"Ang daming tao niyan, makakapag-boy hunting na naman! Hahaha!"
"Ay ang landi!"
"Minsan lang naman 'to eh!"
"HAHAHA!"

Those were what Hannah and I heard while walking through the hallway. It's already Wednesday and ilang araw nalang ay weekends na naman then finally opening na ng founding ceremony! Waaaah!

"Seems, everyone were really talking about the provincial anniversary huh. Excited much." usal ko.

"Gano'n talaga bakla, ako nga excited na eh." sabi naman ni Hannah.

"Anyway salamat sa ticket bakla ha, da best ka talaga manlibre." then bininat-binat niya yng magkaliwang pisngi ko.

"Stop that Hannah, ang corny." saway ko sa kanya. Sa huli tumigil na rin siya at natawa nalang kami.

"Anyway bakla, mauna na'ko. Magko-continue pa kami ni Mayu sa research namin ngayon sa library para sa entire week next week mag-i-enjoy nalang kami." Hannah said.

"Hala, sanaol." sabi ko naman.

"Ikaw na magsabi kay Harvey sa meeting place ha, bye bye!" then I saw her ran off.

'So yeah, I guess I have to do it then. Pero sa'n naman kasi yung mokong na yun? Baka busy rin sa research nila.' I was pertaining to Harvey.

"Pfft." simangot ko nalang and continued heading back to our classroom.

No one else was there, guess they're all still taking their lunch huh.

I walked towards Harvey's table, there, two of his notebooks ang sumalubong sa akin. A red one and a blue one.

"Ow, that brat is really careless of his pag-aari." napairap nalang ako sa ere before picking his red notebook.

The next moment, I picked up the ticket from my pocket and wrote our meeting place on a sticky note. Then, inipit ko iyon sa notebook that I was holding.

"He will find this naman siguro?" I thought pagkatapos. Naisip ko'ng ilagay sa loob ng drawer ni Harvey yung mga notebook niya, I know he's a bit burara and for sure mamomroblema na naman yun pag may nawala sa kanya. Psh!

The next moment, napatingin ako sa table ni Jhared.

I was affected na naman. Bumalik na naman sa isip ko yung araw na niyaya niya ako for this big event but I declined.

For sure he wanted to go but...

"Hays." hindi ko na tinapos ang nasa isip ko. I turned to leave.

Chapter Epilogue

It was afterclass. Nakauwi na halos lahat at ang iba naman ay nasa library at computer lab para ipagpatuloy ang paired research paper.

No one was inside the classroom, Shami sneaked inside at nagmadaling lakarin ang mesa ng isa sa kanyang mga kaklaseng lalake.

The moment she stood in front of it, tumingin-tingin muna siya sa paligid bago napagpasyahang buksan ang drawer nito.

The next moment, she picked a 'provincial annual fair' ticket from the casing of her phone along with a note tsaka iyon nilagay sa loob ng drawer. Then she closed it at mahinhing napangiti.

Meanwhile, Jhared just got out from the computer lab after searching additional articles that he and Zaxisha will use for their research paper. Naghiwalay sila ng landas ng dalaga kanina after agreeing na sa library muna ito para maghanap rin ng magagamit nila for citation.

Now, he's heading back to their room at malapit na siya. Pansamantala siyang huminto nang nakitang lumabas si Shami mula sa kanilang room. He only continued the moment he saw her taking the other way of the corridor.

Jhared entered their room and directly went to his table para kunin ang mga naiwang gamit, but he stopped at nagtaka upon being welcomed by a ticket and a note the moment he opened his drawer.

"A ticket for the provincial annual fair?" he uttered in the air.

The last thing he remembered, wala naman iyon sa loob at natitiyak niyang hindi sa kanya iyon.

'Someone must've put these inside my drawer.'
