Bakit Crush Pa Rin Kita?!

CHAPTER 44 What Happened?

Nakarating na kami sa school.   Marami pa rin palang mga tao.    Yung iba kakatapos lang ng band practice.   Yung iba naman ay nakatambay lang.     Aha, buti na lang at nandiyan pa pala si Kiki.    Sasabay na lang ako sa kanya pauwi dahil medyo dumilim dilim na rin.

Nagpaalam na rin si Rusty sa akin.    He didn't even give me a chance to say thank you.      Ano ba talagang nangyari dun?    Nakakainis talaga.    Paanong nauwi ang aming romantic afternoon sa ganito?   Napatingin na lang akong muli sa hawak kong white long-stemmed rose.    Anong nangyari sa iyo Rusty?

Sinalubong naman si Rusty ng mga ka-tropa niya pero hindi niya pinansin ang mga ito.   Galit ba siya?

"Naku, mukhang na-bad trip si bossing!"

"Kasi naman, sabi ko sa inyo na huwag niyo na silang bulabugin."

"Ang kukulit niyo kasi eh.   Tsk."

"We have to do something."

Yun na lang ang mga narinig ko sa kanila.    Nagsisisihan silang lahat.

Pinuntahan ko na lang si Kiki.

"Oi.   Kamusta ang date?    Bakit ganyan ang mukha mo?"  pagsalubong ni Kiki sa akin.

"Hay nako.     Pwedeng pasabay na lang pauwi?    Ikukwento ko na lang sa iyo on our way."

Umalis na rin kami ni Kiki.    Iniisip ko pa rin ang mga pangyayari.

I like someone...  and that someone is....

Sino naman kaya yung someone na iyon?    Sigh.

RUSTY'S      POV

What the fudge happened???

Everything was going on so well.    Sam and I were having so much fun together.     And just when I was ready to tell her, my fantastic friends had to disrupt everything!     I'm so pissed!

I...  I like someone....  and that someone is....

I was almost there.     I almost told her.    That was my chance.   It was a perfect opportunity.    Now it's ruined!    I don't know if I'm gonna be able to muster the strength again to tell her.

I'm now in my room but I still can't stop pacing around.    This is driving me nuts.      Why did it end up this way?

I also felt bad for how I treated Sam after.     I've been a jerk.    How did I let my emotions get the best out of me?     How could I have left her like that?     What  should I do now?

I can't think of any other better time to tell her how I feel.    The finals are coming up next week.    I'm sure she's going to be busy getting ready for the exams.     I don't want to distract her as well.
