Chapter Twenty Six - Part Three

I smiled at her to say na okay lang then I walk to Hyunjin holding my order, "Ikaw, 'di kakain?"

"Kakatapos ko lang." He answers and I nodded, pero syempre, kumuha pa rin siya sa onion rings ko. I look at him wandering his eyes around the booths and when his eyes went to Lia's booth's direction,

"Ganda niya, no?"

He was startled so he looks at me, "Sino?"

"Si Lia." I nonchalantly said and he stammered, obviously not knowing how or what to react but he deadpans,

"Bruh, you can do better." My eyes widened and I can't help but to gape! I can feel my ears reddening out of shock, wala akong mabanat sa kinginang 'to!

I just shake my head in amusement, kamping-kampi talaga... eh sa maganda naman talaga si Lia...

"Well, if she's pretty for you, that's your preference pero ewan," he shrugs his shoulders, "sa classroom mo lang yan nakilala I mean this school year, unlike yung tatlo, ewan." He shrugs his shoulders once more, ayaw ipagpilitan yung naiisip niya.

That's true naman pero the same goes for Nol dyan sa Jaemin na yan, pero ayoko muna sumbatan lalo na't mas matagal niyang kaibigan si Nol.

He quickly changes the topic and it didn't become awkward so we walk towards Tzuyu's booth. "Naks, may gwapo ka palang tropa, Seunghun, tas 'di mo pinapakilala samin?" Somi said and we all laugh lalo na nung nanlaki mata ni Hyunjin.

"Syempre, pag gwapo, gwapo rin tropa!" Tzuyu said, alleviating the shock in Hyunjin's state which worked because I can feel him calm down.

"Tamo, kaya we're gucci eh." I said at nag-apir pa kami which made Hyunjin shake his head.

"May jowa ka na, kuya?" Somi asked and Hyunjin stuttered, he looks at me which made us laugh and he pouted, halatang 'di mapakali.

"Nakakahiya ka, ano ba yan." Joshua said, "Pero meron ba, kuya? O kalandian parang si Seunghun?" Now it's my turn to gape and stutter at si Hyunjin naman ang naki-tawa sa kanila! Hinayupak talaga 'tong si Joshua!

I glare at him in panic but it's more than obvious he's unfazed by it! Napahawak ako sa nuo ko and Hyunjin snickered, shaking his head.

He looks at me as if saying, disappointed but not surprised, I cleared my throat and stood straight again, "Torpe pa 'to eh." I said while pointing at him.

"Ooh!" They reacted which made Hyunjin slap my arm out of panic and embarrassment. I snickered when his cheeks slightly reddened, as if I mentioned Hana's details!

"Sige, salamat na lang sa lahat, kuya." Somi said dramatically which made us laugh.

Nol's POV

"Ah, fuck, ang inet." I complained dahil tanghali na and even Jeno is exhausted fanning himself.

"Malamang tanghali na." Ryujin said which made the two guys laugh, I pouted dahil sinasabayan niya talaga init ng araw!

Hindi ko na lang pinansin because I suddenly got way too tired due to the heat, but since a number of students started flocking our area, we didn't mind the heat and started working once more.

"Ang sososyal naman ng mga pagkain."

"Hoy, at least mura kaya." Jaemin and I smiled at each other at bago pa kami asarin ni Ryujin, syempre kinausap na ni Jaemin mga bumibili.
