The Heartthrob That Can't Walk

Chapter 25 PART TWO

“For our next activity question and answer portion!” natawa si sir, “ayan chance niyo na baka crush din kayo ng crush niyo.”

“Si sir paasa!” one of our classmate shouted and others laugh at her.

“So, president ikaw na ang bahala sa mga kaklase mo. Baka mamaya may magaway pa. Walang hard feelings, pero make sure na hindi rin nakakasakit masyado ang mga tanong. Nasa tent lang ako pag kailangan niyo ‘ko.” He smile before leaving us.

Lahat sila naka upo sa damuhan, maliban sa’kin. Kumuha ang president ng klase ng isang bote. ‘Yon ang papaikutin sa harapan namin.

“Start na,” he said then spin the bottle.

Tumapat ‘yon sa babae naming kaklase. Shit hindi ko alam pangalan nila. Pano pag tinanong? Mukha lang alam ko. Inikot ulit ang bote para malaman kung sino ang mag tatanong. Sa isa pang babae tumapat.

She cleared her throat, “sino…ang sa tingin mo may potential mo maging jowa?” humagikgik pa siya. On the other hand, the girl look so shock. She’s the quite type, I guess. Na pag titripan pa ata siya.

“Uh…wala e…”

Nagtawanan ang klase, “wala naman kasing papatol sayo!” a guy shouted then laugh at her. I think it’s friend of our class president.

“Stanlly, pigilan mo’ko.” I laugh at her pissed face.

“Pag may nagtanong kung sino jowa ko, ano sasabihin ko?”

Kumumot ang noo ko, “what?”

“Okay lang ba sayo na sabihin kong ikaw?” she asked for my permission.

The girl slowly nodded, accepting those hate words. Everyone went silent. ‘Yan mga tanga kung kailan nakasakit iibahin topic. The routine continues until it stop on me. Shit lang. The one who will question me is a girl. Wag mong tatanungin kung alam ko pangalan mo. Potcha.

“Um…” she gulped, “a-anong gusto ko sa babae?”

I sigh in a relief.

“Quite and matured.” Maiksi kong sagot. She just nodded. No one complains, maybe scared from me.

“Wala ka talagang kiss mamaya.” My girl murmured. My lips form a line. She doesn’t know it. I’ll tell her later.

“Ayan si Brian na!” na puno na ng asaran.

“Tol madali lang ‘to, hindi math promise.” his friend said.

“Tangina bilis!” pikon na sambit ni Brian.

“Sino crush mo?” he’s laughing really hard.

“Gago!”

“Bilis na kasi, halata naman e. Para lang sa mga hindi inform.”

Thinking about my relationship with Shane. All of them doesn’t know it, but I bet some have a hunch. I want to hold her hand in front of them. So, they’ll back off. But she doesn’t want to. She look nervous about something.

“Letter S.”

“Pabitin naman!”

“Si Shane.” Lahat nag hiyawan sa sagot niya. He sure has a lot of friends. Bastard friends.

I look at my girl beside me. She looks bored. Not minding about the tease. I wonder what is she thinking?

“Shane anong masasabi mo na crush ka ni Brian?” usisa pa ng isang bakla naming block mate.

“Bakit turn ko na ba? Hindi pa tumatapat sa’kin ang bote.” Mataray niyang tugon.

May ilang natawa dahil napahiya ang nag tanong. Samantalang ang iba ay tahimik lang. She look so mad right now. Baka mamaya mang saksak siya gamit barbeque stick.
