"Sure ka?baka mamaya magreklamo ka nanaman." "Yup,sasama ako."Dumating na sila sa school kaya inalalayan ni Xian si Kim bumaba.
"Thank you."sabi niya she fixed her skirt at pumasok na sila.They got their things ready and wrote down what was on the board until their teacher came.
"Good morning class,I'm glad to see all of you here despite the weather yesterday." "Good morning Ma'am."they all said in unison.
Bumulong si Jaspher kay Kim."Balita ko tatapusin mo daw ang school year."Kim nodded without looking at Jaspher.
"Okay lang ba tayo?I just want to be friends."sabi ni Japsher.Lumingon si Kim."Sige,friends." and they shook hands.
"Pre,ano 'to?"tanong ni Xian ng makita sila Kim nagshake hands."Wala pre,nakikipagkaibigan lang,pwede din ba tayong maging friends?"tanong ni Jaspher.
"No, thanks I have enough friends."Kim elbowed him."Oww!Sige na nga,friends." "Thanks pre,don't worry hindi ko sya aagawin sayo.Alam ko naman na mahal mo yan eh."
"You better make sure of it,kundi uupakan talaga kita." "Oo pre,so paano?Friday after school,you guys wanna hangout?" "Sige."sabi nilang dalawa and gave their attention back to the teacher.
"Did you guys bring books today?If not,tell me now so I can send you to the library." "Meron po."they all said in unison."That's good,now take one and pass it around."sabi ni Miss Sanchez at binigay sa harapan ang papel.Once everyone got it,she talked about the paper.
"On this paper,you can see the requirements of your book report,you will have a month to finish your book and another month to do a book report on it.I will sometimes, if we have time,give you guys time to do your book report but most of this should be done at home."Miss Sanchez said.
"Yes Ma'am." "Now,since you guys have your book,get it out and I will check it."She went around to look at all the students book."Those are very good books Kim and Xian."she commented."Thank you po."sabi nilang dalawa.
"Yieee lovebirds!"sigaw ng mga kaklase nila.Namula silang dalawa and turned away."Bagay nga kayo."sabi ni Miss Sanchez."Thank you po."sabi nila.She continued to check other students'books when she finished,she made them read it until lunch.
"Ganda ng book ko,nakakaiyak."sabi ni Kim."Eh emotional ka naman talaga eh."sabi ni Alyssa."Oo pero sobrang ganda nung book."
"Oo na,sige na,kumain na tayo baka gutom lang yan."sabi ni Alyssa.Naghanap sila ng table at kumuha ng pagkain.
"Alyssa,ano bang binab--" "Sorry to interrupt pero,pwede bang sumabay kami sa inyo?"tanong ni Jaspher."Ah..sige." "Sure pre,wag ka lang tatabi kay Kim ako lang ang dapat katabi nya."sabi ni Xian sabay akbay kay Kim.
"Pagepasensyahan nyo na sya ah,seloso lang talaga yan."sabi ni Kim."No,problem."sabi ni Jaspher.Kumain sila,nagtatawanan,kulitan,biruan,they were the loudest table.
"So,remind ko lang ha,Friday,punta tayo sa beach."sabi ni Jaspher."Yup,we'll be there."sabi nilang tatlo.Pagkatapos ng ilang minuto,bumalik na sila sa classroom."Hi guys,hope you enjoyed your lunch.Now,we are going to..take a suprise quiz!"
Everyone started whining."Don't worry you guys,I'm sure it's not that hard."She passed out the papers and they took the quiz.
Yun pala,directions quiz,which means you're only suppose to put your name on it and nothing else.Kim and Xian saw it coming but Alyssa didn't."Daya!"sabi nya.
Tumawa lang ang dalawa."I told you guys it wasn't going to be hard.This will go on your gradebook as 5 extra credit points."sabi ni Miss Sanchez.
Alyssa took a deep breath."Hay salamat,akala ko malaking grade yun." "Nope,it was just extra credit.We are also going to have a history test."
"Bakit naman po sunod sunod?" "Sorry guys,pero kailangan eh."The bell rang and they made their way out.Surprisingly,nandoon ang mga magulang nila.
"Mom,bakit po kayo nandito?"tanong ni Kim "Wala,we just want to have lunch with you two before we go to the airport later."sabi ni Emma.
They went to eat lunch at Max's.They ordered the usual chicken and rice with mango juice."Kamusta ang school?"tanong ni Emma.
"Puro tests and projects po."sabi ni Kim."Di bale,kailan ba ang break nyo?"tanong ni Emma."Hindi ko pa po alam."sabi ni Kim."Xian,ang tahimik mo yata?"tanong ni Allan.
"Kumakain lang po."sabi niya while smiling."Kim,don't tell me you ate his lunch?"tanong ni Allan.
"Hindi po,ang hina lang po talaga nyang kumain sa school."sabi ni Kim."Bakit?May sakit ka ba?"tanong ni Emma.
"Wala po,nabubusog po talaga ako pag nakikita ko si Kim."Binatukan sya ni Kim."Kim,baka ma-choke yung tao." "Eh kasi po banat ng banat."sabi ni Kim.
"Totoo naman eh." "Sige magsalita ka pa."sabi ni Kim while holding a spoonful of food ready to put it in Xian's mouth."Ki--"sinubo na ni Kim yung pagkain.
Xian held his neck and he tried to breath.Dali daling kinuha ni Kim ang juice at binigay sa kanya.
Ng malunon na nya,he coughed a little."Yan na nga ba sinasabi ko eh,pag naghaharutan kayo."sabi ni Emma."Sorry."sabi ni Kim still worried.
Nginitian sya ni Xian."It's ok,we were just playing." "Kasi ikaw eh." "Bilisan nyo na dyan susuinduin pa natin si Ella.Natapos sila and they headed to NAIA.
When they got there,they waited for Ella and a minute later,she came.Kim ran to her and hugged her tight."I missed you mahfriend."sabi ni Kim."Ako din."Sumunod sila Emma,Allan,at Xian."Yiee KimXi!"sabi ni Ela.
Binatukan sya ni Kim."Ikaw talaga,kakarating mo lang nang aasar ka na dyan." "Can you blame me?Teka,saan ba ako matutulog?" "Sa kwarto ko." "Yay!" binuhat ni Allan ang bagahe ni Ella.Tumulong na rin si Xian at nilagay nila ito sa likod ng kotse.
"Mahfriend,gutom ka na?"tanong ni Kim.Ella nodded."Allan drive thru muna tayo sa McDo."sabi ni Emma.He nodded and drove to the nearest McDo."Si Xian saan natutulog ngayon?"tanong ni Ella."Sa kwarto ko pero lilipat na sya sa guest room."sabi ni Kim.
"So magkatabi kayo?"tanong ni Ella "Syempre hindi,sa water bed sya natutulog."sabi ni Kim.
"Ah..malungkot ka ata Xian?"tanong ni Ella ng mapansin ang mukha ni Xian."Kasi,eh kayong dalawa ang magkasama sa gabi at umaga.""Nagkikita naman tayo sa school eh." "Nasanay na ako sa kwarto mo eh."
"Stop it,kinikilig ako sa inyong dalawa." "Sus,OA ka naman." "Xian,kailan mo ba balak ligawan si Kim?"Kinamot ni Xian ang ulo nya."2 years na lang."
"Oh,talaga?Akala ko 3?" "Uuwi kami ng permanente dito after we get back."sabi ni Kim.Dumating sila sa drive thru at nag-order para kay Ella.
"Tito,kailan po surgery nyo?"tanong ni Ella kay Allan."Next week na,we're leaving earlier than planned,siguro this Monday." "Bakit po napaaga?"
"Kailangan na daw sabi ng doktor." Isang oras ang lumipas at nakarating narin sila sa bahay.Ginawa ni Kim at Xian ang homework nila and relaxed.
Sa kwarto ni Kim...
"Mahfriend,tulungan mo akong alisin itong water bed so we have more space."sabi ni Kim.Bubuhatin na sana nila yung bed ng dumating si Xian."Ako na,mabigat yan."he put it in the closet."Mahfriend,pwede ba tayong magshopping?"tanong ni Ella.
"Sabi ko na nga ba eh...Oo pwede tara paalam tayo."sabi ni Kim .They went downstairs.
"My,pwede ng magpunta sa mall?Pinayagan silang dalawa at sumama na rin si Xian.Allan drove them to the mall.When they got there,they went right in to shops."Eto mahfriend bagay sayo."sabi ni Ella hahawak nya ang isang red floral dress.
"Yeah Kim,that would look great on you."They were looking around when they heard their names."Kim,Xian."
Sino kaya yun?
