Walls and Boundaries

Chapter 9

TORI

Nailabas na ang first issue ng Photo Maagazine na ginawa namin ni Sky. And I must say that our dean was impressed. Ofcourse Sky did a great work, magaling nga siya eh. He's good at everything.

"Tori! I miss you!" Saigaw ng babaeng kapapasok pa lang ng room.

"Hi Meg!"

"Walang I miss you too?" Then she pouted.

"Hindi kita namiss! Magkasama tayo kahapon! Tigilan mo ako!" And then we both laughed. Nasanay na ako na ganyan ang bati niya sa akin tuwing umaga. Pero balik tayo sa game, kinakabahan talaga ako. Pano kapag, natalo talaga kami? Wala pang talo ang LD. Nako, pag nagkataon, I'm gonna make History.

"Is it about the game?" Tanong ni Meg. I nod.

"Don't worry Tori, I know you'll win! Dagdag mo pang nandyan ka sa team!" She said trying to cheer me up.

"Yun na nga, nasa team ako. Paano kapag natalo kami dahil sa'kin?"

"I told you, your team will win." A voice said.

"Oh, Hi Sky!" Sabi ni Megumi, Sky's leaning on the door. With his arms crossed. Sky nodded when Megumi greeted her.

"I can't help but think!" Sabi ko kay Sky. "By the way, what're you doing here?"

"You're making yourself a paranoid one. The Principal wants us in her office. Now." He said. So I got up and tell Megumi that I'll get going, she nodded and smiled. A mischievous one. Napailing na lang ako, this girl's crazy.

We went to the principal's office. She told us that she wants us to make an every month issue of the Magazine, nasabi naman na yun ni Kuya Paulus but she said that she wants more. Lagyan daw namin ng theme at kung ano ano pang. Ano ba yan, madami din kaya kaming inaasikaso, hindi lang 'yong magazine.

"Kristina, uh, Lunch." Sabi niya habang hinahatid ako pabalik sa room.

"Ha?" Tanong ko, anong Lunch? Kumunot ang noo niya.

"Have lunch with me." Sabi niya habang nakatingin sa daan. Di man lang ako tiningnan, nag aaya ba siya?

"What about Meg and Nate?" Tanong ko sa kanya.

"They can eat by themselves." He said.

Maya maya pa nasa tapat na kami ng room. Bigla namang humungin at napuwing ako. Medyo napatakip ako sa mata ko. Sky leaned forward para mahipan yung mata ko at sakto namang bumukas ang pinto ng room. I can hear that everyone inside gasped. Anong meron?

"Mr. Zamonte, Miss Montreal." Ramdam ko kahit pikit ako, hindi sya gumalaw sa kintatayuan niya. He didn't even bother to look at Ms. Cray. Nang okay na, umayos na siya ng tayo.

"So? Pupuntahan na lang kita dito mamaya." Sabi niya and he turned me around at ipinasok na ako sa room.

"Sorry Ms. Cray, she's late. At kung ano man ang iniisip niyo mali yon." Sabi niya. Pinagsasasabi nitong si Sky?

Lumakad na ako papunta sa upuan ko, all eyes on me. Ano ba'ng meron? Tumingin ako sa pinto and he was still there. He smiled a little bit before he pulled the door and closed it.

Meg was giggling noong humarap siya sakin. I gave her a 'What-Look' but instead she continued to giggle.

"Omg! Is Sky a good kisser?" Tanong niya and my eyes widen. Now I get it! Kaya pala lahat sila nakatigin sa'kin. They thought Sky kissed me! OMG! No! Pero ano nga kaya kung hinalikan talaga niya 'ko?

Lunch Time.

When I finished fixing my things I saw Sky standing at the door again. He's waiting for me.
