NOPI 54: I Will Tell Him The Truth!

NOPI Chapter 54

Sephine's POV

The midterm exams just finished and it's already November. 1 month and a half nalang ay matatapos na ang task ko as an exchange student, aalis na ako't babalik na sa Elite School.

And so I've decided.

Nandito ako sa room ko, sa harap ng study table na kung saan nakapatong ang phone ko.

Anong pinag-desisyunan ko tanong niyo? Well, after that time we spent on studying at the music room, I've been thinking a lot and what I thought of all came to one end, a question: WHEN WILL I TELL HIM THE TRUTH?

After the exams, I gathered all the courage, resolve, determination I can gather and this day is the day when I've decided to tell him. My resolve is now a 100%.

I can do it. I will tell him.

If not me, then who?

If not now, then when?

I need to tell him now.

NOW.

THIS INSTANT.

IMMEDIATELY.

Kinuha ko na ang phone ko't tinawagan na si Charles. Hindi naman nagtagal ay sinagot niya.

"Yes, milady?" pagkarinig ko palang ng napakamalambing niyang boses ay natigilan na ako kaagad

I can already imagine him sitting at their dorm's sofa while watching TV and smiling like an idiot.

For some reason, my resolve shrank to 90 % now.

"I.. I want to tell you something, Charles"

"Hmm. I already know. We haven't seen each other for days, so I could already guess what you wanted to say," sabi niya kaya naman kinabahan ako bigla

"Y-you do?" tanong ko

Nang hindi siya sumagot kaagad ay hindi ko napansin na pinipigilan ko na pala ang paghinga.

"You miss me, right? Hahaha. Ano ka na, Seph. There's no need to be shy. I miss you too"

*Stab

Napahawak ako sa puso ko't napaupo sa upuan ko while closing my eyes.

It felt like I was stab at the heart or something.

Fck, my resolve.. My resolve shrank to a 50% in an instant.

Remembering my time limit and feeling desperate to protect my 50 % resolve to tell the truth, I stood up once more and shouted.

"I.. No! I want to see you! I have something important to tell you! Let's meet Charles!" sagot ko

Mukha namang nabigla siya ng bahagya sa sinabi ko dahil tumahimik ang kabilang linya pero hindi rin nagtagal ng marinig ko ang tawa niya.

The moment I heard his his laugh that was like music to my ears, I felt my heart and my resolve waver again.

"You wanted to see me that much? Haha. It's still.. 3:16am, Seph. Could we meet later? If we were saw together at this time, what do you think people would think?" tanong niya kaya naman nanlalaki ang mga mata kong tinignan ang wall clock ko

Napasapo na ako ng noo ko ng makita kong 3:16am palang pala talaga! What the hell?! What was I thinking?! I didn't even catch a wink of sleep after finishing my exams!

"Oh my god, I'm sorry! I didn't think of the time! Did I wake you up?" tanong ko with a LOT of concern dahilan kung bakit siya natawa

So that was why he was late at answering the phone. He was actually sleeping. I'm such an idiot.
