I have a question...
Have you ever fell inlove?
Maybe, maybe not.
But I believe, everyone will fight for their love ones, even if it cost everything.
There's a saying, "Till death do us apart."
And I wonder, if it's real...
And, can you wait 'till its time? Will you fight?
"Nagsimula ito nang una kita'ng makita sa palaruan noong bata pa ako. Akala 'ko, iyon na ang una't huling beses na makikita kita, ngunit talaga ngang mapaglaro ang tadhana."
"Hindi mo ba narinig na may bago 'raw tayong kaklase?" My bestfriend asks me about a nonsense news.
"Mukha ba akong interesado para doon? " I raised my eyebrows and look at her, blankly. She laugh a little, "Sabi 'ko nga. Pero dinig 'ko gwapo 'raw sya, matalino at mayaman. Ang kaso ay, ubod naman daw ng sungit." Bulong pa niya sa akin, ngunit itunuon 'ko ang buong atensyon 'ko sa aming guro na kapapasok lamang.
Matatapos na ang klase namin ng may kumatok sa pinto na syang ikinatahimik nang lahat.
"Come in."
A guy, wearing a glass with the same uniform as our school, walked in and stani8d near the teacher, unbothered by our stares.
"Oh yes! I forgot, you will have a new classmate. Why don't you introduce yourself muna, ijo?" Our teacher gestures her hand and smiles to him.
"Cleo Fuentes, 18." He simply said but that made my classmates giggle and whispers how attractive he is.
He looks normal, tho.
After interviewing that guy, the class continue,
As the day passes, I realized how 'masungit' he was. He never talked to anyone, except our teachers. He never approached anyone. And, he never smile.
How weird.
At first, I thought how? But hanna kept saying na I act like him, too. She also mentioned many times na crush nya raw 'yon.
One time, pauwi na sana ako nang bigla syang lumapit sa 'kin. "Elle, right?" I was shocked at first, kasi sino ba nama'ng hindi 'e alam ata nang lahat nang tao dito na mailap sya sa tao, lalo na sa mga babae.
I nodded a bit, "Elle." I shaked my hand with him when he offered his. "Cleo." He then smiled at me before turning his back to leave. Leaving me there, dumbfounded by his smile.
"But honestly, crush 'ko pa naman sya 'e. Pero sige, sayo na 'yan. Kay Leon na lang ulit ako mag-f-focus. Hays." She then, pouted, looking stress.
Kwinento 'ko kasi sa 'kanya iyong nangyari kahapon, at eto, tili sya nang tili. Ngayon nasa office kami dahil pinalabas kami nang guro namin dahil sa kaingayan neto'ng babae'ng 'to.
Hindi 'ko rin inakala na magiging magkaibigan kami.
"Elle... " He trailed down before leaning to me and smiling again.
It was like a hobby for him, nagawin iyon sa tuwing uuwi na ako. Napailing nalang ako at tinanaw siya'ng mata-ta-takbo papunta sa kotse niya.
"I remember, when you first saw me crying because of unknown reason..."
