What Would It Be? (COMPLETED)

#WhatWouldItBe

"Woah, thank you for this!"

I was snapped to reality when somebody spoke in front of me. Mabilis kong inayos ang sarili at tiningnan ang nagsalita.

"Nah, it's all good. I almost bought coffee," humalakhak ako sa sinabi.

Paul's face contorted a little bit, giving a best view of his five o'clock shadow and his cleft chin.

"Really?"

"Yeah, uhmmm, I didn't know kasi na game pala ang pupuntahin namin, mabuti na lang hindi ko pa nabili," if someone throws a mirror at me, panigurado sobrang pula na ng mukha ko.

God, this is the first time I'm talking to someone that is completely stranger to me. Nale only introduced him as Paul McArtte and he's from ICCT, may laban sila against RST today.

"Coffee will do rin naman," humalakhak siya. "Stefan right? Nale was like, choppy kanina, I hope I'm saying it right."

"Yup! Just Stefan so you will not have a hard time,"

I don't know how many minutes or seconds we're looking at each other. Isang pito ang nagpatigil sa aming dalawa.

He casually laughed and put down his towel, "You sure you'll enjoy the game?"

"Yep! Just go on, I'll be good here,"

Matagal na naman niya akong tinitigan, "Later?"

Tumawa ako, "Sure,"

And I watched him jog to the middle. Nagtagpo uli ang tingin namin at kinindatan niya pa ako. I looked away so he won't see that I'm really red now.

Did Nale experienced this too before? Sana man lang pala sinabihan niya ako!

Hindi pa nag-s-start ang game dahil wala pa ang isang team. It's a men's volleyball match, I lied to Paul that I'll be great here.

Sa totoo lang, wala pa akong napapanood na live games ng ibang school. Sa UW kasi ay sa TV o Facebook ko lang napapanood.

Basically, this is the first time that I'm watching live. Dito pa sa RST.

Speaking of RST, hinanap ko ang team nila pero sila pa ang wala sa gitna. Kaya hindi pa nagsisimula. I grabbed my phone to see if Nale texted me back, iniwan ba naman kasi ako pero instead of seeing a message from friend, iba ang nakita ko.

Trent Allsen
Good luck ang hiningi ko pero nakikipag-usap ka sa iba... my heart is in pain :(((

Hindi dapat ako matatawa pero natawa ako sa huli niyang sinabi. If my calculations were right, today is Thursday and Thursday din ang binaggit ni Trent sa commercial nila about sa mangyayaring game.

Ngayon ko lang nafigure-out. And I don't know if I should be happy or not.

Wala naman akong plano magreply pero patipa na ang daliri ko nang pumito ang sinuman mula sa paligid.

There, we saw the other team jogs into the middle court. Tinago ko ang phone dahil worthless na iyon.

Sinubukan kong hanapin si Paul mula sa team nila pero iba ang nahanap kom

Trent's stares are boring holes in my soul now. Kailangan ko pang mag-iwas para hindi na iyon maramdaman.

Did I asked him to watch over us?! Hindi siya ang pinunta ko rito!

Thank God the game started, wala talaga akong idea about how volleyball works kaya tahimik lang ako nanonood. But every time ICCT garnering points, pumapalakpak ako.
