BLAISE
Alas-tres ng madaling araw na ’ko nakaidlip kaya ten o’clock na rin ako nagising. No one can really understand why the best hours, for me, to watch series are between eleven in the evening and three in the morning.
I immediately leaped out of bed then took a bath. After a brief shower of lukewarm water, I dried myself up and wore my new school uniform—white long sleeve blouse na tinernohan ng navy blue skirt na hanggang tuhod. I was primping in the mirror for a minute or two. Naninibago talaga ako sa buhok kong naka-perm.
I was about to leave when I threw a glance at the frigging fridge. There’s a note on it, undoubtedly from my dear sister.
‘It’s your first day on your new school, Blaise. And even though you’re already late, dapat pumasok ka pa rin.’
Below the message was her name written in cursive form and accompanied by a smile emoticon.
Sa tingin ko, kaya hindi na siya nag-abalang gisingin ako kasi parati kong pinapaalala sa kaniya na kaya ko na ang sarili ko. She didn’t have to fret about me. And besides, I had my dear friend with me who always woke me up—an alarm clock to be exact. ’Yon nga lang, nakalimutan kong i-set.
I let out a soft chuckle then shook my head rhythmically.
Sumakay ako ng bus papunta sa bago kong eskuwelahan. Ngunit bigla akong nahilo. Ang kaninang isang upuang natanaw ko’y biglang naging dalawa. ’Di ko batid kung dahil ba sa bus na sinasakyan ko na umandar kaagad habang hindi pa ako nakauupo o sadyang kulang talaga ako sa dugo. Yawa!
“Miss, you okay?”
Rumehistro sa ’king pandinig ang boses ng isang lalaki. ’Tapos, biglang bumalik sa normal ang paningin ko. My jaw nearly dropped seeing his features. He had raven hair, those not-so-big lustrous eyes, pointed nose, and had fair skin. He’s unarguably handsome.
He motioned to the vacant seat near to his then coldly uttered, “Have a seat!”
Pekeng ngiti lang ang naging tugon ko bago umupo sa tabi niya.
I immediately shot a glance back to my seatmate whose eyes were shut—he’s listening to his playlist, I surmised—when I realized something. The logo on his uniform was the same as what’s on mine. It only meant one thing: We’re heading to the same school! Sa Lewis High!
At late din siya, ha?
Weird but I beamed. Was I happy knowing that I would see his handsome face every now and then?
I shook my head in disbelief. Hindi ako makapaniwalang naisip ko ’yon. Umayos ka nga riyan, Blaise!
Pero ang tuwang naramdaman ko kani-kanina lamang ay napalitan ng pagtataka na may kasamang pagkunot ng noo nang makababa na ’ko ng bus ngunit ni anino niya ay ’di sumunod sa ’kin sa pagbaba.
