—mingyu's

Looking up and scanning the whole street.

My eyes landed on the bus that stopped just across the street.

Seeing a familiar figure going out of the bus, I smiled as I walked not crossing the street.

"Oi Gyu!" sigaw niya ng pangalan ko sabay kaway.

She's just the cutest, my heart cant take it.

Trying to hide my now red face, watching her look from left to right to check of there are cars on the road.

Hopping cheerfully, crossing the street and now eye smiling at me.

Oi di kaya ng puso ko.

"Pasensya na talaga ah, si mama kasi ayaw pa ibigay yung perang pinatago ko" pouting as she explained what happened.

"Ok lang atleast nandito kana." I said patting her said slowly.

Chansing na po ba ito?

"Pasok na tayo, lika" she dragged me by hand.

Nang makapasok kami, amoy na amoy ko yung kape at cinnamon sa hangin.

Wag sana ako bumahin.

Natagalan pa kami sa entrance dahil naghanap pa si kiara ng mauupuan namin.

"Dun nalang tayo oh!" turo niya mung upuan na nasa left side ng café, yunh mapalit sa glass wall.

"Dali na baka maagawan tayo" letting myself be dragged again by her.

No, ayaw ko maagawan.. pero natatakot ako.

I sat just across her.

She's still smilling at me.

"So what do you wanna order?" tanong niya.

Tinignan ko yung listahan ng mga available na mga inumin na nakalapag sa mesa.

"Latte? nah.. ice coffee nalang akin" sabay lapag nung listahan na yun.

Pressing her lips into a thin line and rubbing her chin.

Mahirap ba umorder?

"Milktea nalang sakin" saka tumawa ito.

"Ako na oorder, gimme the money." agad kung kinuha yung wallet ko at binigay sakanya yung pera.

She counted the money I gave her.

"Sobra naman to?" litong-lito siyang tumingin sakin.

"Libre ko na rin milktea mo, my treat." she smiled again, showing her freakin white teeth.

sanaol char.

"Thank you salamat kamsa gomawa xie xie arigatou.." sa tingin ko lahat na ng thankyou sa ibat ibang languange na sambit na niya.

She skipped happily to the counter, ordering our drinks.

I suddenly remembered what rena told me yesterday..

aamin na ba talaga ako?

I was lost in my thoughts, na di ko na namalayan na nandyan na pala siya sa harao ko.

"They'll just bring our orders here."
I noded and smiled at her.

Bumunting hininga ako.

"Ki.."

Looking away from her phone then looking at me.

She raised a brow.

"Ano kasi.." pausing

"May kaibigan akong may gusto sa isang babae." nanlaki ang mga mata niya, well now she seemed interested.

"Sino?"

"Basta"

"Ok then, now tell me." she pouted again.

"Matagal na niya gusto yung babae, kasu torpe siya at yung babae di pinapansin yung nararamdaman niya." she look at me, sadness in her eyes.

"Sa tingin ko talaga dapat umamin na agad yang kaibigan mo, not all people can read other people's emotions." seryoso niyang sagot.

"Then ill tell him that." she noded frantically.

"yes yes!"

Ok aamin na talaga ako.

"Kiara!"

She finched as I half shouted her name.

"B-bat ka biglaang kang sumisigaw"

"Ano kasi gusto ki—"

"Wintermelon milktea and Cafe Latte!?" a shout from the counter cut me off.

Pota aamin na ko e. Kaasar!!!!!!!! buset. *insert all mura here*

"Dito!" she shouted back raising her hands.

"Here is you order—" the waiter boy. dressed in a barista outfit paused.

Teka pamilyar siya ah.

"Kiara?" tanong niya kay kiara.

I lowkey glared at the barista/waiter boy.

"po? ay Jaehyun!!" she cheerfully said the name of the waiter/barista boy.

Jaehyun? Jung Jaehyun?

"Oi dito ka pala nagtatrabaho?" tanong ni kiara

Tumawa si jaehyun.

"Part time lang."

He slowly turned to me.

"Mingyu? magkasama kayo?" sabay turo samin.

Bakit bawal?

Tumango lang si Kiara.

I stayed quiet, listening to their conversation. Still lowkey glaring at Jaehyun.

I can see how her eyes literally sparkled when she's talking to him.

Ugh. Heart, i just hate you.
