Alexies POV
A week has passed and still, I can't get over what I heard that day, my friends keep asking me what happen while Kelly she's the only one who knows what happened, she's always on my side and keep taking care of me while we're on the school.
Did she betray me?
I walk downstairs and I saw my parents preparing some breakfast. They just look at me, while I just sat on the chair. My mom put some rice and slices of bacon on my plate.
"You okay?" my mom asks and she even put her hand on my neck.
"Wala ka namang sakit" she says and I just smile.
"I'm fine mom" I say and started eating even though I don't have any appetite.
"How's your school?" She asks.
"Nakatayo pa rin po" I say at halos nakita kong nag pipigil ng tawa si Daddy.
"I mean your studies?" Nakita ko namang inirapan lang ni Mommy si Daddy.
"Ayos lang naman po, medyo stress lang kasi malapit na ang finals" I say and she nodded.
"You're almost on the finish line honey" she says and I smile.
"Kamusta naman si Crystal? Hindi ko na s'ya masyadong nakikitang dumadalaw rito" halos matigil ako sa pagsubo ng pagkain.
"Ayos lang ba kayo?" She asks and I sighed.
"We're done" I say and they furrowed their brows.
"I mean, I stopped courting her already" I say at halatang naguguluhan ang mga ito.
"Why?" Mom asks.
"Private matters, Mom" I say and she just sighed.
"Do you want me to talk to her?" she offers and I shake my head.
"I'll go now" walang ganang sabi ko at pareho silang hinalikan sa pisnge.
....
Nakarating ako sa school ng hindi ko alam kung paano. Masyado akong lutang sa byahe kanina, buti nalang ay hindi ako nabangga. I bit my lower lip and go outside.
"Alexies!" Agad na bungad ng mga kaibigan ko.
"Anong ginagawa n'yo rito?" I ask.
"Inaantay ka malamang" pag tataray ni Kelly.
"Nice car Alexies" bati naman ng mga boys schoolmate ko. I look at my car. I already bought my dream car without her.
"Tara na" agad akong inakbayan ni Marco.
"Sabi ni Ali, vacant daw tayo ngayon" Kelly says and I nodded.
"Anong balak n'yo?" Tanong ni Xia na kanina pa nakayakap kay Zara.
"Cafeteria?" Tanong ni Kelly.
"We can't go with you guys, we have a quiz" Zara says.
"Ay oo nga pala, ano oras yun?" Tanong ni Marco.
"First subject" agad namang nanlaki ang mata ni Marco.
"30 minutes nalang, ang layo ng room natin" sabi nito.
"Hala, hindi pa ako ng rereview" reklamo ni Xia.
"I told you to review last night, right?" Mataray na sabi ni Zara and I just shake my head.
"Mauna na kami" paalam ni Marco and I nodded. Agad din naman n'yang hinila yung dalawa.
"Cafeteria?" Agad akong inakbayan ni Kelly and she smiles at me.
Agad kaming pumunta sa Cafeteria, si Kelly ang nag prisinta na umorder ng pagkain namin. Mabilis lang din s'yang naka order dahil kaunti lang naman ang mga students na nandito.
"Here" she puts the food on our table.
"You okay?" She asks and I smile.
"Don't smile like that please, it's not the smile that I want to see" she says and pouted.
"Here" she feeds me with her fries.
We're both busy eating our food. Minsan nagiging peaceful din naman pala itong Cafeteria pag kaunti lang ang mga tao, may kaunting bulungan pero mostly nag r-review ang mga nandito. Nakakapag taka nga lang dahil nag r-review sila sa Cafeteria instead of Library.
"Alexies, I know you're not okay to talk about Ms. Lavigne, but how did it end ba? 1 week na s'yang hindi napasok sa klase" she says. Medyo napansin ko nga rin na walang Crystal na pupumasok sa classroom namin, yung tipong tunog pa lang ng takong n'ya ay nakakanginig na sa kaba.
"I don't know, we don't have communications already" I say and she nodded.
"Why don't you ask your girlfriend?" I say and she furrowed her brows.
"Anong girlfriend? Wala ako nun" she says and I chuckle.
"Mrs. Dizon?" I ask and she rolled her eyes.
"May asawa" mataray na sagot n'ya.
"Edi we're on the same boat" I say.
"Si Mrs. Dizon oh" turo ko sa labas ng Cafeteria. Papalapit sa pwesto namin si Mrs. Dizon na may malaking ngiti.
"You guys don't have classes?" Mrs. Dizon asks.
"Vacant" tipid na sagot nitong nasa harap ko.
"I see" Mrs. Dizon smiles. I can't deny that she's so beautiful.
"How are you?" She looks at me and I raised my eyebrows.
"I'm fine po" I say and bit my lower lips.
"Where's your friend?" Biglang singit nitong si Kelly.
"Who?" Mrs. Dizon asks.
"Ms. Lavigne" pag papatuloy ni Kelly.
"Why are you looking for her? I thought Alexies will ask" she chuckles and I just focus on my food.
"So, nasaan nga? She's our professor and malapit na ang finals, isang linggo na s'yang hindi nag papakita" matapang na sabi nitong si Kelly kaya agad kong sinipa ang paa n'ya para patahimikin s'ya.
"I don't know" yun lang ang tanging sagot no Mrs. Dizon.
"You don't know?" Kelly furrowed her brows.
"I don't know, she didn't text me or what. I don't want to invade her privacy, babalik din yun" she says and I bit my lips. Where is she?
"Why don't you text her Alexies?" She looks at me and I just shake my head.
"I don't want to invade her privacy too" I say and she nodded.
"I'll go now, I have classes. See you guys later" paalam ni Mrs. Dizon.
"Curious?" Biglang tanong ni Kelly and I just sighed.
"Don't mind her already, she dumped you. Wag mo masyadong ipakita na nahihirapan ka na wala s'ya, mamaya bumalik s'ya rumupok ka ulit" she smirks kaya inirapan ko nalang s'ya.
I'm already done with her.
"Tara na" naubos na rin naman namin ang pagkain kaya I decided na pumunta na sa classroom.
"How about the girl that night?" Biglang tanong nitong si Kelly, mas lalong dumagdag ang curiosity ko.
"I don't know-" Kelly cuts my words.
"That's the hoodie right?" She pointed at the girl who was wearing the same hoodie.
"Cathleen!" Tawag ko rito at agad naman s'yang lumingon. I pull Kelly and run to Cathleen.
"Yes!" She asks.
"Where did you get this hoodie?" Walang paligoy-ligoy na tanong ni Kelly.
"Why?" Halatang naguguluhan naman itong si Cathleen, ikaw ba namang biglang tanungin nitong si Kelly tapos seryoso pa ang tono n'ya.
"Just answer" seryosong sabi nitong katabi ko.
"What's wrong with my hoodie?" She asks and I sighed.
"Just tell us" halatang naiirita na itong si Kelly, sobrang hot tempered n'ya.
"Okay chill" pag papakalma ni Cathleen.
"Remember that I told you na I have a best friend pero nag friendship over na kami. She gave me this hoodie so we have a couple hoodie" yun lang ang sabi ni Cathleen.
Dalawa?
"Sino yung friend mo?" Kelly asks.
"Why?" Biglang seryosong tanong ni Cathleen.
"Just tell us" Kelly says.
"In one condition" Cathleen smirks.
"Huh?" Kellt furrowed her brows, habang ako ay pinapanood lang silang dalawa.
"Kiss me" Cathleen says.
Ay bading.
"Huh?" I widened my eyes.
"Then don't" akmang aalis na si Cathleen pero agad ko namang hinawakan ang braso n'ya.
"Diba sabi mo tutulungan mo ko" I look at Kelly.
"Alexies naman" she says and I pouted.
"Just one kiss Martinez" agad na lumapit si Cathleen kay Kelly.
"Hayop ka Alexies" yun lang ang tanging sabi ni Kelly and she grab Cathleen's face and she just crashed her lips on Cathleen's lips. Halos lumaki ang mata ko sa nangyari, ang bilis.
"Now, tell me" agad na sabi ni Kelly.
"Your lips are sweet" Cathleen complimented.
"I know, so tell me" nakapamewang naman itong si Kelly. Hindi pa ako nakaka move on sa kanilang dalawa.
"Chill" Cathleen smirks.
"Si Uhm-" someone yelled.
"Martinez!" Agad naman kaming lumingon at nakita ang galit na galit ba ekspresyon ni Mrs. Dizon.
"Tell me now" hindi nalang pinansin ni Kelly si Mrs. Dizon.
"Cathleen! Let's go" someone call her, kaibigan yata ni Cathleen. Agad namang tumakbo si Cathleen papunta sa kaibigan n'ya.
"Later baby" she winked at Kelly.
"What the fuck!?" Inis na sigaw ni Kelly.
"She just stole my kiss!" Reklamo naman nito.
"Ikaw kaya humalik, hindi naman s'ya" sabi ko sa kanya and she glared at me.
"Fuck that Angel, kahit kailan talaga" inis na nag lakad palayo itong kaibigan ko. Kung hindi siguro sumigaw si Mrs. Dizon ay alam na namin kung sino iyong tinutukoy ni Cathleen.
....
Nakarating na kami sa classroom at halatang wala sa mood itong si Kelly, hindi ko alam kung matatawa ako or what. Halos nakasalubong talaga ang kilay nya ngayon at inis na binubuklat ang notebook n'ya.
"Sino next teacher natin?" seryosong tanong n'ya kay Ali na busy sa kanyang pagkain.
"Mrs. Dizon" tugon naman ni Ali na inosenteng kumakain.
"Letche talaga" inis na sabi n'ya and I just shake my head while controlling my laugh.
"Get a piece of paper, we have a quiz today" agad na pumasok si Mrs. Dizon at iritableng nilagay sa lamesa ang mga gamit n'ya.
"Ma'am-" my classmate was about to talk.
"No. 1!" sigaw n'ya at agad ko namang hinalungkat ang bag ko tsaka kumuha ng papel.
"May sinabi bang mag papa-quiz s'ya?" bulong ko kay Kelly.
"Ewan ko d'yan" inis na sabi nito.
"Mrs. Dizon, wala ka naman pong sinabi na mag papa-quiz kayo. Kung sana sinabi n'yo po, edi sana nakapag-review kami" lakas loob na sabi nitong kaibigan ko.
"Alam mo ba ang surprise quiz Ms. Martinez? Surprise nga diba? May surprise bang sinasabi? Inuuna kasi kalandian sa labas" walang emosyong sabi ni Mrs. Dizon.
"Kalandian?!" agad na tumaas ang boses ni Kelly.
"Hayaan mo na" I say at agad hinila paupo si Kelly.
"Bwisit ka talaga sa buhay Angel, putanginamo" halos malaglag ang panga ko sa sinabi n'ya, alam kong rinig iyon ni Mrs. Dizon.
Hmm, crispy.
"What did you say?" Agad na lumapit si Mrs. Dizon sa pwesto namin.
"Ah ma'am, wala po yun. Pansenya na po" sabi ko at nakatingin lang s'ya kay Kelly.
"What did you say?" Pag uulit n'yang tanong.
"Bwisit ka-" agad ko namang sinipa yung paa ni Kelly.
"Putanginamo, kasi tinawag mo akong malandi!" Sigaw ni Kelly at halos manlaki ang mga mata ng kaklase ko.
"Hindi ba malandi ang tawag dun? Humahalik ng kung sino-sino?" Taas kilay na sabi ni Mrs. Dizon at hindi inalis ang tingin kay Kelly.
"Isa lang yun teh, tsaka ano bang pake mo? Ikaw? Hindi ka ba malandi? Nagpakasal-" Mrs. Dizon cuts Kelly.
"At my office" agad n'yang hinila si Kelly palabas ng classroom.
"Grabe" narinig kong sabi ng kaklase ko.
"Uy pre, walang quiz" agad namang tumawa yung mga nasa likod.
"Life saver talaga si Kelly" agad namang kumunot ang noo.
....
Nakailang klase na kami ngayong araw at wala pa ring Kelly na bumalik. Wala rin ang Crystal na nag turo saamin, hindi naman sa concern ako kasi di naman ako marupok pero kasi parang may mali.
Natapos na ang klase ko at mukhang magkasama si Mrs. Dizon at Kelly ngayon, mukhang hindi naman papabayaan ni Mrs. Dizon si Kelly.
Dali-dali naman akong nag lakad papunta sa music room dito sa school, sumali pala ako as a guitarist, para na rin may pagka-libangan ako.
....
Tugtog dito, tugtog doon. Halos yaan lang ang ginawa ko after class, natapos na rin ang practice namin. Inabot na nga ako ng gabi, paglabas ko ng music room ay may ilang classroom at floor nalang ang bukas ang ilaw habang ay iba naman ay sarado na. Nakakatakot, baka mamaya ay biglang may humila saakin.
Nag lalakad ako sa hallway habang hinahanap ang susi ng sasakyan ko, gabi na rin naman at kailangan ko ng umuwi dahil nagugutom na rin ako. Habang busy sa paghahanap ay nagulat nalang ako ng biglang may humila saakin sa isang madilim na kwarto.
"S-Sino ka?" Kinakabaduhan kong tanong.
"Sino ka ba?!" Nilakasan ko ang boses ko dahil hila hila nya pa rin ako.
"Look, if you're doing some stupid things right now, don't involve me. Get off of me!" I was about to pull my hand ay biglang bumukas naman ang ilaw. I stare at her eyes, beautiful eyes that I love staring at every day.
"Ms. Lavigne" I say and she quickly put her hands on my nape and pull me. Bigla naman nyang siniil ng halik ang labi ko. Pinatigil ko naman sya at tila pareho kaming nag hahabol ng hininga.
"Sapphire" she cupped my face
"I love you" sa tatlong salitang yun ay tila nawala lahat ng galit ko sa kanya. Bigla nya ulit siniil ang labi ko, sumuko na ang galit ko at tila sinabayan na ang paghalik nya sa akin.
Hindi ko na napigilan ang sarili ko, kusa nalang s'yang nagalaw, mukhang alam ng mga labi ko ang amo nila. Hinayaan ko nalang ang sarili ko na masakop n'ya ulit, nag sisimula pa lang akong mag move on sa kanya, pero heto s'ya.
"I'm sorry" she hugs me. I miss her so much, even her smell.
"I'm so sorry" she keeps kissing me.
"Please forgive me" she says and didn't let go of my lips. I feel a vibration in my pocket.
"Wait" I say and she just hugged me.
I get my phone and someone send me a message, the number is not registered on my phone.
"Do you want something exciting? Just click this link"
Baka wrong send lang? Baka virus ito sa phone or what? Pero may something inside me na gusto itong buksan. If virus ito, bibili nalang ako ng bago. I open the link and it starts to load. Lei didn't let me go, she just hugged me while kissing my neck.
I look at my phone and the time stop. Did I see it right? What the fuck is this? Halos mabitawan ko ang phone ko sa gulat, hindi ko alam ang nararamdam ko ngayon. It's Crystal with Carlo, both naked on the bed.
Halos makuyom at masira ko ang phone ko dahil sa galit, inis, at lungkot. Gusto ko maiyak pero mas nangingibabaw ang galit ko.
"Alexies" isang malambing na boses mula sa babaeng nakayakap sakin.
"What is that?" She looks at me.
"Alexies-" I show her my phone.
"What is this?" Tanong ko sa kanya at napatigil lang s'ya.
"Crystal?!" Hindi ko namalayan na lumakas ang boses ko.
"May nangyari sainyo?" Tanong ko, agad lang s'yang tumungo at tumango. I bit my lower lip and I'm controlling my knees not to get weak.
"Alexies, baby hear me out" she cups my face at ramdam ko ang agos ng luha mula sa aking mata papunta sa pisnge ko.
"Kaya ka ba wala ng isang linggo kasi b-buntis ka?" I'm so random right now, I just want to know an answer. She just cry and hug me.
"Crystal, are you pregnant?" I bit my lower lip.
Please say no.
"Y-yes" halos lumaglag ang balikat ko at parang gumuho ang mundo ko sa narinig ko. I guess I have a reason to move forward.
