Episode 19:

"What the fuck?"

Tumaas ang kilay ni Rosendale sa lumabas sa bibig ko nang buksan niya ang pinto. She looked so decent wearing our school uniform but the bracelets on her wrist will give anyone the impression of her being a badass.

"I cut my bangs for you and that's what I get?" May katarayang saad niya. Isinara niya ang pinto at hinawakan ako sa baywang para hilahin palapit sa kanya. Hindi ko mahanap sa sarili ang itulak siya palayo. Naninibago ako. Mas kitang-kita ang kulay brown niyang mata ngayon. Ang ayos niyang tingnan. "Stupid Echo."

"Anong stupid?" It took me a lot to push her a few inch from me. "Anong meron?"

"I cut my bangs," walang kagana-ganang sagot niya.

"Alam ko, sira." Inirapan ko siya. She held my hand, sinubukan ko iyong alisin pero ayaw magpaawat ng babaeng ito. "Pero bakit? Anong meron at binawasan mo?"

"Hindi ba bagay?" tanong niya. She was asking like it was nothing.

Nakaramdam ako ng pag-iinit ng pisngi sa hindi malamang dahilan. What the heck is this? Lagi naman siyang ganoon, yung para bang hindi big deal sa kanya ang mga sinasabi. Anong kabaliwan ang sumapi sa akin at nakakaramdam ako ng kakaiba? She suddenly looked...cute. Fuck this.

"Okay lang naman." I tried to let it slide swiftly without avoiding my gaze at her. "Pero ano ngang meron?"

"You once told me to cut it," she said. She caressed her hair softly, her eyes never failed staring at me. "So, I did. Since I like you, like what you're trying to say."

"What─baliw ka?" Halos mautal-utal ako sa narinig. "Mind you, Rosendale, that you're the one who confessed to me─if that's even a confession─that you like me! You, woman! Don't say it like I just assumed it!"

Nagkibit siya ng balikat at hinila ako para maglakad. "Your parents are waiting. I'm hungry."

"How dare you to ignore me?"

"Well, you're right, I do like you." She said it with such a laid back tone. Huminto siya sa paglalakad at tinitigan ako.

Napamaang ako sa ginagawa niya. Gusto ko na lang siyang sabunutan sa sobrang kalma niya. How can she stay so relaxed when I was feeling a lot? Siya dapat ang mabilis ang kabog ng dibdib at hindi ako! Kung tutuusin, why was I even feeling like this? It's impossible to feel that I like her, that's creepy! Magugunaw muna ang mundo bago ko iyon maramdaman. Not her, not to anyone, and certainly not this early! Damn this annoying me.

"I like you enough to have this urge of─"

"Kung hindi maganda iyang sasabihin mo, don't even try to─"

"Wanting to feel your skin and hearing that moan once again." she finished. Napabuntong-hininga na lang ako nang marahas. At talagang tinapos niya ang sasabihin! Sabi na, eh, hindi maganda ang maririnig ko. Damn her. "By the way, I love biting your lips."

"You're just a pervert, aren't you?" I gritted my teeth. Napatakip tuloy ako sa bibig dahil sa narinig. My face felt so fuckingly hot and I hate the feeling. This woman's making me feel embarrassed. She tilted her head in a manner like she's trying to ask what my problem was. Siraulo talaga itong si Rosendale. "Don't play innocent!"

"I am not," she defended. She gently pushed me on the wall. Itinukod niya ang kanang kamay sa gilid ko habang ang kaliwa ay inaayos ang buhok ko. She liked doing that, I noticed. Yung paglalagay niya ng hibla ng buhok ko sa gilid ng tainga ko. Nakakakilabot sa pakiramdam, lalo na kung tumatama ang hininga niya sa mukha ko. She's too close to my liking. Her hand travelled down to my collarbone, she ended playing with the collar of my uniform. "What are you doing to me? I want to ask that as well."
