Chapter Two

"YOU WHAT?!" HER bestfriend Dana was half shouting at her. "Why did you kissed him? It's seems so not you, Calia."

Calia just rolled her eyes, "I want him, Dana. That's why."

Nagsalubong naman ang mga kilay nito, "but he's your cousin, and cousins don't do th—"

"—he's not." Putol niya sa turan nito habang nakataas ang kanyang mga kilay. "Philip is not my cousin. He will never be."

Ito naman ngayon ang nag-angat ng kilay sa kanya, "oh.. So, Philip is the name of your dear 'cousin'"

Nagsisimula na siyang mainis sa kaibigan niyang si Dana. Ipinagdiinan pa talaga nito ang huling salitang sinabi. Nakakatanga minsan.

"I don't care for that 'cousin' thing. I want him. And you know me, Dana. You know me so well."

She heard Dana heaved a sigh, "paano ang parents mo? Alam na ba nilang alam mo ang totoo?"

Nasapo niya ang noo dahil aa tanong ng kaibigan. Oo nga pala - she should care about her parents as well.

"Besides, we're still young. I mean, we're only nineteen. Fresh, young, and full of dreams, right?" Pahabol pa nito sa kanya.

Kasalukuyan silang nasa laboratory room ng mga oras na iyon. They're having an examination about a dead frog. It's their assignment, and Dana happens to be her partner - as always.

Hindi nila hinahayaan na maging iba ang partner nila. Kailangan silang dalawa talaga maliban na lang kung groupings kasi minsan mahigit lima sila sa kanilang grupo, pero parehas pa rin na andun sila sa isang grupo. Hindi sila napaghihiwalay kahit nung una pa lang.

The good thing is that, she and Dana has a lot of similarities including the dream to become a doctor. Though Dana wants to be a Pediatrician and she wants to be an obstetrician- gynecologist.

Naiisip nga nila na kapag maging ganap na silang doktor ay magtatayo sila ng isang private clinic. Both of them will have their own office and patient room, and a laboratory as well, so that the medicines and other things to be done will be held in their laboratory.

She knows that it will take years for them to become a doctor but Dana and her both believe in the saying that, "patience is a virtue". And now, she's having another inspiration to study well. Another goal to pursue.

They heard the bell in the school rang and so, they put their things inside their bags. And made their way to the canteen area of the University.

Habang naglalakad sila ay kinakalikot niya naman ang kanyang bag. Kanina pa niya hinahanap ang kanyang earphone dahil may gusto siyang pakinggan na musika sa cellphone niya.

Hindi niya napansin ang dinadaanan niya, hanggang sa nabangga siya sa isang pader.

"Ouch!" Napahawak siya agad sa kanyang noo dahil ito ang unang-unang tumama sa pader.

"I'm sorry Mi- Calia?" Untag ng malamyos na baritonong tinig na kahit hindi niya lingunin ay alam na alam niya kung sino ang nagmamay-ari ng boses na iyon.

Hindi pala siya sa pader bumangga kundi sa malapad at matipunong dibdib ni Philip.

Dahan-dahan siyang nag-angat ng tingin sa pinsan niya pero sapo-sapo niya pa rin ang kanyang noo.
