INSECURITIES

Isang halakhak ang kumawala kay Mr. Sketch na sinundan ni Mr. Nervaez hanggang sa lahat sila ay tumatawa na. Pati itong gagong si Guhit ay tumatawa na din. Nakakuha iyon nang irap sa akin.

Ano bang nakakatawa sa sinabi ko? It's my perspective and I just let it out of my mind! Napalabi ako.

"Stop laughing!" I glared at him. Patuloy pa rin sila sa pagtawa.

"Stop being so adorable first," he laughed and he give me a peck again.

"What kind of blood is that?" his father laughed. Ano ba talagang nakakatawa sa sinabi ko? "Dollars and euro? Where did you get that, young lady?"

"It's just metaphor!" I grimaced.

"You and your smart mouth," Sir Ezekiel shook his head. Lalo akong napasimagot.

The night ended with them, teasing me about my damn perspective. Hindi sila makaget-over doon sa sinabi ko kaya hanggang matapos ay iyon ang usapan.

I woke up the next morning with a headache. Nag aral pa kasi ako bago magpahinga at tumawag pa si Guhit kaya late na ako nakatulog. I prepared the breakfast and left a note for Miss Denisse saying I went to the University early. May meeting kami about the Intergames next week.

Paglabas ko sa gate ng Villa ay sumalubong sa aking paningin si Guhit na naghihintay. Leaning on his luxury car,  Isagani Alexis look like a freaking model. White polo shirt and maong pants with aviators, he looks dashing! Makalaglag panga talaga. Tangna, ang gwapo!

Ramdam ko ang mabilis na tibok ng puso ko. Like, I run a freaking marathon!

"Saan ang photoshoot, Sketch?" I joked trying to hide the fast beating of my damn heart! Pero sa halip na kumalma lalo pang nagwala noong tumawa siya nang mahina!

Stop being so handsome,  Isagani! Hulog na hulog na ako tapos hindi mo naman ako sinasalo!

"Are you okay? You're red," he asked and then smirked. The headache is somewhat, a blessing in disguise. May dahilan ako kung bakit ako namumula!

"I'm okay. It's just headache. Nothing serious,"

"You sure?" he asked again. He's now worried.

I raised my kilay and rolled my eyes. Sakit lang 'to ng ulo! Mamaya wala na.

"Stop overreacting, Guhit! Malayo sa bituka."

Sumakay na ako sa sasakyan niya para matigil na ang usapan. I saw him sighed before entering inside. He looked at me intently before he roared the engine to life. Tahimik ako habang nagdadrive siya.

Oh gosh! Kahit anong gawin yata nitong si Guhit,  gwapo siya!

We arrived at the University fifteen minutes after. Maaga pa para sa klase naming dalawa pero dahil may meeting ang lahat ng kasali sa Intergames next week, nandito na kami.

"You go first, Charity. May bibilhin lang ako," he said. I nodded.

Nauna na akong maglakad sa kanya. We parted ways. May iilang players na ang nasa auditorium kung saan gaganapin ang meeting kabilang si Aya. Agad niya akong sinalubong.

"Kapitana!" she greeted and I smiled.

"Where's Chrishane and the others?"

"On their way," she answered. "Where's Kapitan? Hindi kayo nagsabay?"

"He's buying something," I simply answered. Naupo ako sa upuang nakalaan para sa amin. I massages my head and closed my eyes. Masakit talaga ang ulo ko.
