I Didn't See That One Coming

Chapter 14 - Unexpected Visit

     I really don't know what's with me. Naguguluhan na 'ko. Pero one thing's for sure, ayoko ng ganitong feeling. It's like I felt this before. But no! Please good Lord, no! 'Wag kay Jeric. He's a good friend of mine. Kailan lang kami naging friends. I don't want to ruin it just because of my stupid feelings. Pero, anong gagawin ko? Iiwasan ko nanaman siya? I tried that already. Pero wala eh. Ang hirap.. I guess I just have to go with the flow. Ayos lang 'to, as long as walang nangyayaring something. Tolerable pa naman 'diba? Atleast I have a friend like him, not because he's popular but because I know that he's a good friend. 

     I remember tuloy what he told me nung last na nagkita kami,

     "Basta may nanakit sa'yo ulit na lalaki, sabihin mo sa'kin, papabugbog ko."

     I know it was supposed to be a joke pero parang there's assurance in his tone that he would want to protect me. Siyempre babae ako, deep inside kinilig ako.. Pero I don't want him to notice that. Mahirap na.. I'm not ready to take risks. Kaya ang defense mechanism ko sa kakiligan ko 'nung time na 'yun, I called him Kuya! Hindi ko naman alam na ma-ooffend ko siya nun at nagtampo na.. At yun! I don't know what's got into me at tinawag ko na siyang Gummybear. It somehow suits him kasi it's one of my favorite comfort foods, tapos andun siya to comfort me. 

     Hay na 'ko Yannie! Stop with these unnecessary stuffs! Mas marami pa kong kailangang gawin at isipin.

     Since sembreak ngayon, may mga take home activities yung mga prof namin. Ang weird nga eh. Kahit hindi pa namin nakikita yung final grades namin, parang nagstart na ang second semester.

     I checked my planner if I have some things I need to check on today.

     ____ Check email! Group's deadline for submission ng part for Case Study.

     ____ Contact Mr. Rivera for the details about the Baby Thesis.

     ____ Remind Khrizzie about the papers for submission sa Student Council.

     ____ Call grandma and ask her nurse about her check-up.

     ____ E-reserve!! Venue for the Pageant! :)

     Shieks! Ang dami ko pala talagang gagawin. Can I do all of these for the day? Kaya 'to! Aja! Aa!

     I started calling my groupmates para 'dun sa ipapasa nila sa'kin. Damn! Lahat sila hindi ko ma-contact! Nag-bakasyon lang, hindi na nila pinansin ang mga cellphone nila? Oh c'mon! I checked my emails pero wala kahit isa sa kanila ang nag-send ng part ng Thesis! Shocks! Kailangan na 'yun eh! Anong gusto nila cram nanaman? Kahit si Mr. Rivera, hindi ko rin ma-contact! Ako nalang ba may pakielam sa school works at this time? Grade concious na 'ko kung grade concious, pero diba? I wouldn't want to waste my sembreak not being productive! 

     Paano 'to ngayon? :/

     UGH! Nakakainis naman kasi 'tong mga groupmates ko eh! Binigay ko na nga sa kanila yung mga gagawin nila tapos wala pa ring ginagawa! Ano 'tp, ako lang gagawa lahat? Sa pagkakaalam ko kasi groupwork 'to, bakit parang nagigig individual work?! 'Wag nilang irarason sa'kin na busy sila at maraming ginagawa, bakit ako ba free time ko lang 'tong sembreak na 'to? Ito ayaw ko kapag ako na-aassign maging leader eh. Buti sana kung masisipag groupmates ko.. Eh wala eh! Nganga! How am I supposed to do my other errands?

     Buti nalang nasubmit na ni Khrizzie yung para sa Student Council.

     Naiiyak na 'ko. Nakaka-frustrate naman 'to! Hindi ko alam kung anong uunahin ko... Suddenly, I can feel my tears rushing down my face! Naman kasi eh!! Nasstress na 'kooooooo..
