Chapter 29
Question
It was that time of the month.
Kaya pala ganon nalang ako kung makapag-react kahapon! It totally felt like I was a different person, and I never thought I would be able to feel that way!
Marco is just another annoying guy for me. Hindi ko alam kung bakit kahapon parang iba siya, parang hindi ko siya kinakainisan, and suddenly he became too intimidating for me. Turns out, it was just my hormones acting up!
"Since when did you start racing?" Tanong ko kay Marco na busy mag-sagot ng worksheet niya.
We're here at the classroom where we usually stay to study. Tanghali pa lang at sobrang nakaka-antok yung araw sa labas dahil malapit kami sa bintana. It wasn't opened but there aren't any curtains and the lights in the room were off so it makes me sleepy.
"I started at 12," he looked at me and smiled when he saw me yawning.
Nanlaki ang mata ko pag-tapos mag stretch. "What the?! 12?!"
He just shrugged. "I don't look like my age soooo yeah."
"Hindi ka manlang natakot?!"
Umiling siya. "The first time I tried it, I instantly knew I was born for it."
I scoffed at nag-pigil ng tawa. Tumingin naman siya sakin habang naka-ngiti. "That sounds cheesy. So naniniwala ka sa love at first sight?"
He gave me his usual smirk. "Well, yeah. You don't have to think or look twice to make sure that you fell in love with something... or someone. You'll just know."
"I call bullshit on that," agad kong putol sakanya. Humalukipkip ako at tinaasan siya ng kilay. "Your view on love is super shallow and idealistic, don't you think?"
He nodded softly while playing with his lips. "Yeah, I still believe in fairytales."
I chuckled softly. Binato ko sya ng eraser na nasa harap ko at tumawa rin naman siya pabalik. "Oh yes you do. Halata naman because you're still 15."
Humalukipkip siya at ngumiti ng nakaka-asar. "Why is my age always ends up being the problem? What are you, 40?"
"Do I look like I'm 40?" I frowned.
He rolled his eyes and wiggled his eyebrows. After that, he just slowly went back to answering his papers. Hindi manlang niya sinagot ang tanong ko! He's also hiding his smirk while answering the paper!
"Ah ganon?!" Inis kong sabi sakanya. He just smirked again while answering!
Agad akong tumalikod para bigyan siya ng panibagong test paper. Kahit hindi naman napag-aralan!
Agad niyang hinawakan ang kamay ko kaya napatingin ako sakanya. The table between us is just small, and since we're facing each other, agad niyang na-abot ang kamay ko at napigilan ako para kunin ang test paper.
"I was just kidding! Don't give me harder ones!" Natatawa niyang sabi.
I was trying so hard not to laugh but I couldn't help it. "Bitawan moko! Sasapakin kita!" I tried to threaten him but it didn't do any good because I was smiling.
"Joke lang kasi!! You don't look 40!" He chuckled. "Minsan lang!"
Nag-aagawan kami kaya tumayo ako habang hinahatak ang kamay ko papalayo sakanya. He was still laughing and I'm trying my best not to laugh because he pisses me off so much!
