Asia has been looking at the blackboard as if it's the most interesting thing in the world. Na para bang nag-iisip ito ng malalim tungkol sa mga equations na nasa pisara when in fact wala namang laman ang utak niya.

Blanko.

Tila tumigil ang pagfufunction nito sa sobrang kaiisip kagabi ng mga pangyayari. Nagasgas na ata ang utak niya at tumatalab na ang kulang nito sa tulog. But then, bigla nalang pumasok sa isip niya ang dahilan ng zombie state niya ngayon.

She absentmindedly touched her lips.

Oh yes, she can't seem to sleep because of that freaking kiss. She can't get it off her head and it made her crazy. Mukha tuloy siyang zombie sa itsura niya with two layers of eye bags. Kaya nga suot niya ang kanyang eyeglasses ngayon. Eyeglasses without any grade. Yipee.

She remembered everything. Dati ay si Maze ang kasama niya para sabihin ang mga niloloob niya pero now how could that happen when he's now what's bothering her! Maze Oliver Sanders! Her ka-love team and the guy who kissed her last night! It wasn't her first kiss, no.. But why can't she forget about it? It's not like she likes him..

Oh gahd! Why did it went to that stage?! Bakit napunta doon ang iniisip ko?!

I like Maze? What the.. Oh no..

Talaga bang may gusto na siya sa katambal niya? That will only explain everything eh. When he kissed her, she felt like there were some fireworks around them.. Na para bang may nagrarambulang paru-paro sa tiyan niya. 'Yun bang sa lambot ng mga labi ni Maze, parang nahipnotismo siya dito at hindi na nakapag-isip ng maayos. She likes how his lips were on hers, making her lips warm.. Oh my gahd! What am I thinking?! Hindi naman ako malandi! No!

Marahas siyang napailing.

No, hindi ako malandi. So it just means one thing..

"Oh gahd!" Napasinghap siya sa napagtanto. Pero dahil sa lakas ng boses niya ay nakuha niya ang atensyon ng buong klase niya pati ang kanilang propesor. His scrutinizing eyes were again on her, making her melt on her seat. 'Yun ang nararamdaman niya sa panahong iyon.. She just wanted to melt!

"Is the L'Hopital's Rule so shocking miss de la Merced?" Taas kilay nitong tanong. Asia gulped and shook her head.

"No sir.. I'm sorry." She bit her lower lip. Strike two for her and her Calculus professor. Buti nalang talaga at hindi niya kaklase dito sina George at Lara kundi uulanan na naman siya ng tukso nito. Ayaw pa naman niyang may makaalam ng nangyari kagabi sa kotse! No way! It was way too embarrassing para ipaalam and she even can't believe it totally happened. She can't believe he actually told her those words to her. And she can't believe how messed up her head is right now because of that one kiss. Arrrggg!!!

Pesting kiss kasing 'yan!

Asia went to her gym after school. Hindi muna siya umattend ng rehearsal sa pageant for two reasons. Una, dahil iniiwasan niya si Maze. Pangalawa, dahil iniiwasan niya si Maze. Yes, iyon nga ang kanyang mga dahilan. Hindi pa siya nakakapag-isip ng maayos at hanggang hindi pa siya nalilinawan sa kung anong nararamdaman niya, she won't talk to any of those guys!
