"You got that james dean daydream look in your eyes~" I dueted the song on the radio.
"And i got that red lip classic thing that you like~" Ang gaganda talaga ng songs ni Taylor Swift kaya ako naging swiftie eh.
Nag di-drive ako ngayon papunta sa school, 9am ang class ko ngayon and it's already 8:30am.
Nakarating na ako sa gate ng school at pinark ito sa parking lot. I made sure to lock my car as i walk inside the halls of the school.
My mind is still reminiscing the event last night.
Arghh! How am i gonna face her now?! Siya pa naman yung first class ko.
I heaved a sigh.
Papalapit na ako sa classroom ng may biglang kumalabit ng balikat ko.
"Anak ng kalabaw!" Gulat kong sigaw. I faced my back and what i saw made my throat dry.
"Xaidam" I coldly utter.
"Lili i missed you-" He said but i cut him off.
"Cut the crap Xaidam" He flinched as i glared at him.
Why would he show up now?! I'm happy this past 5 months already. Tapos he'll show up again?? Tanginang buhay to.
I turned around and made my way to the the classroom but he suddenly held my arm.
"Ano ba Xaidam?!" Galit kong sigaw sa kanya at inalis ang kamay ko sa hawak niya.
"I..... I'm sorry. Don't shut me out.....please" He pleaded. I can see that he's on the verge of crying.
"What do you want?" Tanong ko sa kanya with my monotone voice.
"Can you.....meet me in the restaurant where we always go after your...um, your class?" Dahil don napataas ang kilay ko.
"And why would i do that?" Malditang tanong ko sa kanya.
"I- i want to tell you something" He said as he lower is head.
"Tsk, yeah right!" I spat.
Does he really think I'll go with him? Hinding hindi na ako magpapaloko sa mokong nato. Not in my lifetime not ever.
"It's important, please" He pleaded. I can see that his lips are quivering, a sign that he's about to cry.
Something in me wants to comfort him despite what he had done to me, I won't give in though. If i do, he'll think that i still love him.
"Then tell me now" I said sternly as i cross my arms.
"I- I can't. Please Ylliana, just meet me later. I'll be waiting" He said as he averted his gaze to look me straight in the eye.
He smiled a little and then walked away.
What the heck?
I shoved the thought in the very back of my head as i compose myself when i enter the classroom.
Minutes later dumating na si Uzon. And just like every day she looks gorgeous.
"Damn" i whispered to myself when she leaned in while her hands are firmly on the table.
She's wearing a white botton up shirt. The two bottons in her chest are not intact so her cleavage showed a little. It's pared with a knee high maroon pencil skirt with finger long slit on the sides. She's also wearing a maroon pointed stiletto heels while her hair is curled on the bottom.
Gosh I can't take my eyes off of her she's breathtaking.
"Open your books to page 78 to 80 and review the foreign policy and social justice. We will be having quiz later in the afternoon class" She said in her poker face and then sat down on her chair.
I think she can feel that someone is staring at her because she directly looked up to me. Once she saw me staring at her she shot me a wink and focused on the papers she's checking.
I was left stunned. Did- did she just- wink at ME?! I gulped as i try to focus on reading.
"Hoy nakita ko yun ha!" Brian whispered in my ear. Nasa gilid ko lang pala siya!
"H-huh? Ano?" I stuttered.
"Ang intense ng tingin mo kay Miss Granade, kala mo hindi ko ma no-notice!" He teased me.
I can feel myself heat up in embarrassment.
"Am i really that obvious?" I whispered back.
"Duh! I also catched her winking at you just now" Humagikhik pa ito ng mahina.
"Shut up!" I whisper yelled at him but he just keeped giggling.
* * *
"Class Dismissed" Miss Granade announced as the bell rang. I quickly gathered my things when i felt my phone vibrated from my pocket.
***
I have leads
Once i read that three words i rushed out of the classroom and into the cr.
I dialed the number and called him.
Ylliana Eugene Funtamuerte
Who do you think it is?
***
I have 3 suspects lili
Ylliana Eugene Funtamuerte
Who??
I'm itching to know who that unknown number is.
***
First your ex
Ylliana Eugene Funtamuerte
Xaidam Granade Aire?
***
Correct. Second is your friend. Maia.
Ylliana Eugene Funtamuerte
What?? Are you sure about that?
***
Yes. I have photos of her following you everywhere
Ylliana Eugene Funtamuerte
What? Everywhere? Are you really sure it's her?? I mean, she's my friend, I don't think she'll do that. For no reason atleast.
***
I have photographs lili. You might want to know who the third one is so let's skip that for later.
Ylliana Eugene Funtamuerte
Okay, who's the third-
*Ringgggg!*
Ylliana Eugene Funtamuerte
Dammit! that's the sound of the bell late na ako! Mamaya nalang mag ti-text ako sayo.
***
Roger
I ended the call and rushed to my second class.
* * *
*Ringggggg!*
"Hay sa wakas!!" Rinig kong sigaw ng mga kaklase ko.
The bell rang, that means tapos na ang morning classes namin and it's already time for lunch.
I gathered my books and pens at nag lakad na palabas ng classroom.
"Hey! Sama tayo mag lunch" Sigaw sakin ni Abby. Tumango naman ako at sabay na kaming nag patungo sa cafeteria.
*Ting!*
"Teka lang sakin yun" Saad ko atsaka inopen yung cellphone ko. Pinauna ko na si abby at pinagsabihan na hanapin yung iba at masusunod nalang ako.
Uzon Alissa Granade
Come to my office
Shit.
Why would she text me right now?
What does she want? Omg....
Thoughts are running through my mind but that suddenly stopped when i accidentally bumped into someone.
"Hala I'm sorry!" Agad akong nag apologize.
It's my fault naman kase tutuk ako ng tutuk sa phone ko.
"It's fine" Miss Villaco stated.
I smiled at her as a response. As i was about to walk away she spoke again.
"Tell your bestfriend to go to my office after school, we have some..... unfinished business" A slight grin formed on her lips.
She walked away and i was left there in the middle of the halls dumbfounded.
Unfinished business? Are they business partners? Atsaka diba nag away yang dalawang yan kahapon??
Don't tell me?! (Make up sex?)
Aish! I shaked my head to erase the thoughts and continue to walk.
Pinuntahan ko lang ng madalian yung mga bakla atska nag paalam. I made an excuse that i have to do something, kung sasabihin ko ang totoo who knows? Alam ko naman na alam nila yung feelings ko kay Uzon.
'Someone will easily mistaken you as a couple by the way you two look at each other' Those words are still lingering in my head.
'You two are the most oblivious people i know when it comes to your attraction towards each other' Isa pa to. This made me overthink.
I knocked on her office and got inside when i heard a faint come in.
I saw her. The goddess if my life, sitting like a queen on her swivel chair.
Shuffling through the papers in her desk.
"Ehem, Miss?" Nahihiya kong saad.
"Sit" Tipid nitong saad and i obligated.
Umupo ako sa couch na malapit sa bintana.
"Why'd you sit in the farthest couch? Come here" She said with pure authority.
Gulp..
"I'm f-fine here Miss" I said stuttering slightly.
"Come. Sit. Here." She said while maintaining eye contact with me.
Am i sweating? I feel like I'm sweating..
"Don't make me do it Ylliana Eugene Funtamuerte." My eyes widen as she said my full name.
Dali dali naman akong umupo sa pinaka malapit na upuan. My heart is pounding.
She has this effect on me. And I don't know how she does it. She made me like her without even trying..
Now I'm going to make her like me too.
"Why are you smiling?" Saad nito while raising one eyebrow.
I'm smiling? Just the thought of her liking me makes me smile i guess.
"It's, it's nothing Miss" I retorted.
"Did you have lunch?" Tanong nito.
"I was about to, but you texted me to come here" I stated.
Tumango siya at may kinuha sa kanyang drawer.
Kumunot ang noo ko.
Lunch box?
"Eat this" What?
"A-ano po?" I gulped. I knew those lunch boxes are hers. I saw them when i was at her house yesterday.
"I said eat. This is my thank you for bringing me home yesterday" She said in her poker face.
"Weh? Thank you nga ba talaga o lowkey pursuing me?" I muttered lowly.
"Whatever floats your boat Miss Funtamuerte" My eyes widen.
SHIT SHE HEARD THAT?!
FUCKING GOD NOW I'M EMBARRASSED!!!
But wait.....she didn't- She didn't say no!!! Fuck.
"Y-you heard-?" I uttered shyly. I can feel my cheeks heating up when i saw a smirk plastered on her face.
"I'm not deaf" She said as she opened the lunch box and handed it to me.
"Here eat this" Kinuha ko naman ito sa kanya and started to dig in.
Ayaw kong mag focus da kahihiyan na nagawa ko kaya nag focus nalang ako sa pagkain na luto niya.
Damn she could be a chef if she wants to.
"Is it good?" She stared at me intently.
Tumango lang ako kase puno ng pagkain yung baba ko. Sarap eh bat ba?
"Good" She stated.
After i finished eating she handed me a folder.
"What's this? Miss?" Kunot noo kong tanong.
"It's a reviewer" Huh?
"For what po?" Confused kong tanong.
"Arithmetic contest" She said.
I nodded. This must be the reviewer sir Jardson talked about.
"You're exempted on your first and second class this afternoon to review for the upcoming contest next tuesday. Since sir Jardson is absent today, ako ang nag hold ng reviewer mo" Saad nito at tumango naman ako.
After 1 hour of reviewing nakaramdam ako ng antok. Mag isa lang ako dito ngayon sa office niya kase may class pa siya.
Naisipan ko na umidlip muna ng tulog kase may isang oras pa naman akong palugit.
