Toh's POV
A freshmen sit alone on the far end of the bus.
P' Nuea. Walked towards him.
And sit beside him.
"Toh. He wears eyeglasses also" a whisper.
It's Jao.
"Stop looking at them" I whispered.
I leaned my head on glass window of the bus.
Looking outside.
Deep breath.
I took picture of the beauty of sunrise.
I hope my heart smiles as the sun today.
"You can sleep on my shoulder na Toh." Som said
I just smiled at her.
She placed he big pillow between us and I leaned on it. I placed my face towel before I leaned my head on it.
Som taps my head. Her arms hides my face. I am like a baby now crying on my mom's shoulders.
I wiped the tears it should not be seen.
I should happy.
Right?
I had all those moments with p' Nuea.
And I had enough!
I breathed deep once more.
Now I am ready to face them.
And I will just cry after this camp.
I am here.
To help paint the classrooms and chairs.
And to take picture as their photographer for their documentations.
"For documentation purposes." I said loud.
"Toh we are already rolling on the road na." P'Touch said.
"P' I can handle it I am in the center na. I can take pictures of both side na." I said.
"We'll help. That is one of the reasons we are in this trip right p' Touch?" Som asked.
"Okay carefully na nong!" P' Touch said.
I nod at him.
"Now at this half pretend sleeping na please?" I instructed.
I said and they are cooperative.
Then I walked slowly to reach the front and do the same then
"Pretend doing something on your own Luke phones chatting. Anything" I said.
"1, ,2,3." I said and they all paused
" then pretend having a good time" I instructed. And some strated to stand.
"1,2,3," they paused like singing and dancing the. All sit down
"I am coming on that side na" I said and the middle to end of the bus paused as instructed.
I laughed at their pictures.
I sit down and arranged the pictures.
I am doing my best to ignore p' Nuea like ignoring me also.
Whatever!
I can't go back now.
There is only moving onwards.
I never attempt to zoom in or zoom out any of the photos.
I placed my ear buds on.
And played my piano music.
But I alarmed. That only me can hear.
We have an hour more before bus stop.
I slept and wake up from my alarm.
I looked around and everyone sleeps. Time for my skill.
I took pictures of almost everyone.
I really appreciate p' Prao. I know she does not like me. But she is really gorgeous. Even when she sleeps.
I save d her picture on my photo and send to her email.
Gorgeous even when sleeping.
I captioned it
I never dared take photo of P' Nuea. But the funny p' Sky.
Ohow. Som will kill me or not? Just one shot p' Time and the rest.
I also took some of P' Nuea. And his Van Gough. The kids face is not seen. Aww.
Frustrating but never mind.
Then time to settle down.
As I sit down and get comfortable.
The bus stopped and the driver said.
"Everyone! Everyone!"
I pretend I just wake up.
""Bus stop. We have 15 minutes." The bus driver said.
"Nong Toh. You should a picture of me driving also." He said.
"Khab P'. " I said.
When all are gone I took picture of him pretending driving and I stand outside the door and took picture of him as he smile. With a peace sign.
I showed dit to him and he asked if I can send it to him. And I did. P' Touch might need it also.
"Toh" Jao called.
Jao, Som, Daisy are together
I smiled at them as I walked to them.
"Nong Toh" p' Prao walked to me.
"You are really good at taking pictures..
Khabkhun" she said and waved her phone.
Not a polite manner.
Or friendly.
At least she appreciated it
P' Sky walked towards us. P'Touch is following him.
I waiid and leave slowly as they talk.
I grabbed a bottle of Gatorade.
And paid for it. Good p' Nuea is with them.
"P' Toh" that kid said.
I smiled at him.
"Anything you need nong?" I asked.
He just looked at me.
And arranged his glasses.
"P' susuna!" He said.
I smiled at him. No matter what that susuna is for? Thank you.
I grabbed a snack and paid or it.
Then I went back in the bus.
"Toh give me all the photos later" p' Touch said.
"No worries p' I will give you the memory card itself na." I said.
He nod his head.
I leaned on the glass window. Som gave me her pillow again. "Lean on it na" she said.
I nod my head.
I played my playlist and close my eyes I wish. When I wake up this all will be gone.
"Toh. Toh wake up!" Som said.
"Toh they are all gone na" Daisy.
I moved and opened my eyes.
Jao Daisy and Som.
I smiled at them. Stretch my body and moved.
I grabbed my bag.
It's just us in the bus.
P' Touch came.
"Food thing. You're awake. Let me help na." P' Touch said.
He grabbed my bag.
They walked and I followed them.
We followed p' Touch. Som is called by p' Fon.
While me Daisy and Jao followed. P' Touch.
We pass through rooms where others will sleep.
P'Nuea talks to the freshmen.
"I'll leave you guys here na" p' Touch said.
"But we need some documentations." He added.
"P' Touch wait a bit na. Please accompany us a but for the arrival pictorials." I said.
"Please na" Jao said.
"Okay" p' Touch said and we had some shots on each room.
The arrival.
The arrangements of teams.
Therefore looks of the of classrooms needed for repairs and pant even the chairs tables ceiling and roofs.
"We have a lot to do na!" P' Touch said as we look Ed at the pictures.
"By the way Toh. I need to see the bus fun you did while everyone sleeps naughty you!" P' Touch said.
"Toh I leave p' Touch in your care na." Daisy said.
"I'll tie him up for you" I said.
P' Looked at Daisy.
"Daisy can you have a longer shirt I am the only one who have the rights to see that na. " He said.
I silently giggled and secretly take picture of them on my phone.
"Smile" i said and pointed my camera on them.
"Toh!" Daisy is ready to scold me but I showed the the camera lense is closed.
"P' Jao and I will take others photos na" he said and left
P' Touch opened his laptop and we both looked at all the pictures I have taken.
Then.
"Toh!"
Is it a shout.
Or a mad roar.
I know it's p' Nuea.
I looked around and he damn mad.
"P' Touch I wanna talk to Toh'" he said.
P' Nuea hold my hand and pulled me gently to stand and walk
