Stevhen Joab Aguilar

She's here.

"Dude, are you listening to me?"

She looked away but I remain staring at her. She's beautiful.

"Sinong tinitingnnan ng gag*ng to?"

"Hoy Dan, sundan no nga ang tingin into, tutal magaling ka naman don."

I still don't know what's her name, but I'm sure its a pretty name.

"Wait. F*ck! Moved on ka na nga? Bat ang bilis?"

Inalis ko na ang tingin ko sakanya ng mapansin ko na-a awkward siya. Cute.

"Why? Why?"

"He's staring on her!"

Dan and Yael yelled and pointed at her. The two of them got a head smack from Ruo.

"Wag niyong turo! Mga gag* talaga. "

Napahawak sila sa ulo nila. That must be hurt. I stared at Yael and asked him,

"Do you know her?"

He acted like he's gonna faint. Overreacting talaga.

"Hell yes!"

Dan interrupted. He's always like that, bakit hindi ka pa sanay Jaob?

"I didn't asked you."

I said.

"Hah! Bagay nga sayo."

Asar sa kanya ni Yael. Dan acted like he got dumped. He's good at acting stupid too.

"What's her name?"

"Artemis Allen Estrada."

Yael answered, well Yael has been useful for the past few years. Ruo's mouth formed 'o'.

"The only granddaughter of the Estrada's ?"

Dan and Yael nodded. No wonder, she's tough.

"You interested with her? "

I looked at Ruo when he asked that question. I shrugged.

"Your hopeless. She's a good catch though."

"Since you and Chelsey broke up, go and court that Arte--."

"Great idea."

I said and started to run towards Artemis.

Artemis Allen Estrada

"Artemis."

Napatulala ako sa naging ngiti niya. Mala-anghel. 

"Do you n-need something?"

I mentally slap myself for stuttering. He chuckled.

"Artemis."

Napakunot ang noo ko ng banggatin niya ulit ang pangalan ko. Hindi siya nagsalita at tinitigan lang ako. Mabuti nalang paparating ang mga kaibigan niya.

"Joab!"

Lumingon siya sa kanyang likod at binalik agad ang tingin sakin.

Joab?

"Do you need a ride?"

"Yes"

"I mean no!"

He laughed after seeing my reaction. Nang makalapit na ang mga kaibigan niya, inalis ko ang pagkakahawak ng kamay niya sakin.
