You Are Mine (Published Under LIB)

Chapter 9

Naniniwala ako.

Napangiti ako sa sinabi ng lalaking mahal ko. Like me, he will do everything for us.

"I love you, honey. I agree with your plan. See you at the gate."

"I love you too. Kasi dapat nagpasundo ka na lang sakin, eh."

Ayoko namang makita ako ni James na mukhang pinagsakluban ng langit kapag nagpasundo ako sa kanya.

"No, it's okay. Besides, I'm already on my way."

"Okay, I'll be waiting at the gate. See you, and please, take care."

"I will."

"I love you so much, honey."

"And I love you too."

After 10 minutes, nandito na ako sa school. And there I saw James, waiting for me. I hurriedly come to him and give a sweet kiss. He hugged me so tight and put his right arm around my waist.

"Umiyak ka na naman no ?" nahalata na naman niya.

Ngumiti ako.

"No, kumati kasi yung mata ko tapos kinusot ko ng kinusot kaya yon, naging ganyan. But I'm okay. Isa pa, wala namang reason para umiyak. I have you."

I will be strong for you, James.

He smiled. But he worries.

"Hindi naman ako mawawala sa yo, eh. Anyway, nag-breakfast ka na ba ? I bet, hindi pa."

Kilalang-kilala talaga ako. Wala kasi akong gana kumain kanina.

"Can we eat at the cafeteria first ? Manonood ako ng practice niyo mamaya, ha."

Pinisil niya ang ilong ko.

"I knew it." at napailing. He's talking about me, not eating breakfast.

We walked hand in hand towards the cafeteria when I spotted someone.

Si unggoy, making out with another girl.

They're talking and laughing while the girl's hand was in his lap and then slowly going up to his ..

To his ...

Bago ko pa makita yun, inalis ko na ang tingin ko sa kanila. Napansin din kasi ako ni unggoy.

Grabe. Wala talagang pinipiling lugar tong lalaking to. Nakakahiya siya.

Nagp-PDA naman kami ni James pero hindi ganon kalaswa. Tsk.

"Sino ba yung lalaking yon ? Di ba, siya yung sa library nung isang araw ?"

si James. Nahalata niya na tinitingnan ko si unggoy.

"Tsaka, nakikita ko rin siya sa gym. Player yata ng basketball."

"Wala. Unggoy talaga siya."

"You know him ?" alam kong hindi ako titigilan nito hangga't hindi ko sinasabi sa kanya kung sino si Shaun.

"He's my childhood enemy. Bestfriends ang mommies namin."

"But he said that he was your childhood friend while were in the library."

"Mukha niya. Kelan pa, no ? Tsaka, wag ka ngang magpapaniwala sa kanya. Unggoy yan, eh."

"So, hindi ka niya gusto ?"

Gusto ko yatang mabulunan sa sinabi ng boyfriend ko.

"Seriously, honey ? ..." at natawa ako ulit.

Si unggoy, magkakagusto sakin ? Hindi ang tipo ko ang magugustuhan niya, no.

If I know, wild and aggressive girls ang mga tipo ni Shaun.
