Diana's POV
9am. Yes! I can double my phone usage this Saturday! AYOS!!!
I was about to open my phone when all of a sudden... "Knock! Knock!", may kumakatok sa pinto ng bahay namin.
"Diana, pakitingin na kung sinong nasa pinto," my mom shouted from downstairs.
Bumaba ako, then I looked at the window. It was..... Jerry?
Was he here to stalk on me? No, alam kong hinding-hindi niya yun magagawa sa sobrang bait niya. Why did I even think of that (specifically) anyway?
I just simply opened the door anyways. Turns out, it wasn't Jerry. It was my dad.
I just said hello, and went back upstairs.
I just opened my Messenger and began the chatting life.
Hey, how's life?
Good. -Katie
My boyfriend just dumped me. ;( It was a sad moment. -Annye
Don't worry. I have felt that.
Oh, really? -Katie
Just kidding.
Oh, hahaha. Real funny, Diana. It's not like you even have a boyfriend. -Annye
Hey, people. What have I missed? -Athena
Sobrang dami. SOBRA! -Annye
Woah. No need to get pushy, Annye! You need to chill out girl. Take a chill pill. -Katie
*applause for cool words* -Athena
*applause also*
Biglang may kumatok nanaman sa pinto. My dad was still here, so who could it be? I looked out the window again before I opened the door. This time, it was Jerry for real!! But still, he wouldn't stalk me.
He kept knocking and knocking and knocking. I couldn't take it anymore. I simply opened the door, tapos unakyat ulit ako, simply leaving Jerry on the porch.
Jerry's POV
"Hey, Diana... Diana? DIANA!", paulit- ulit kong sabi hanggang sa mapasigaw na ako. I followed her upstairs. When I opened her bedroom door, I simply saw her using her phone na nakahiga sa kama. Is she stressed? In pain? I couldn't tell, so I just went back out the house. When I was a few blocks away, napatingin ulit ako sa bintana ng kwarto ni Diana. Nakita kong nakatingin rin siya nang biglang mawala sa paningin ko.
Sayang. What will I tell the orphanage? Diana was supposed to teach to them today. I know, I'll take her place this afternoon at the orphanage.
PAGDATING SA MGA ORPHANAGE...
I stood up in front of the orphanage and began the speech.
"Welcome to all orphanage members, the children, the adults, and everyone in between. Today, we will be holding a seminar on your cultures compared to ours, and I have a special surprise for you at the end."
The water, food, electricity, sobrang laki ng pagkakaiba. But after my seminar, it was time for my special surprise.
"Okay people, gather around. In my seminar, I explained that people can live without food, but they won't be able to live without water. So, here is my special surprise. I introduce to you, the O.W.T. or Orphanage Water Tower."
My friends at the back unraveled the water tank behind me. Sobrang ganda ng ginamit naming design at color scheme. Everyone cheered and applaused in great glee.
After the seminar, I went back to visit Diana. I knocked on the door once again, and once she opened the door, her head was down.
"I'm sorry about what I did earlier. Sana mahanap mo sa puso mo ang pagpapatawad sa akin."
I replied,"Don't worry. I forgive you. By the way you missed your seminar at the orphanage."
She went: "OH MY GOSH! I completely forgot. I'm so stupid! Why did I forget about the frickin' orphanage? May pumalit ba sa akin doon?"
"Of course. I did."
She smiled and said,"OMG! THANK YOU!", then she hugged me.
Good thing no one was outside.
Diana's POV
I stopped hugging Jerry. He said goodbye, and so did I. I went back up and continued my "phoning".
Omggggggggggg guys!
Wut happened to you, girl? -Katie
Have you gone cray- cray? -Annye
I hugged Jerry!
Oh my gosh! What was his reaction? -Athena
Nothing. Just silently embarrassed.
I think he felt more embarrassed then simply silent. -Annye
Maybe so, Annye. Maybe so...
But, still! What was the specific reason for the hug to occur? -Katie
Yeah! Wut was the reason? -Athena
Nakalimutan ko kasi yun orphanage. Ngayon, siya yun pumalit sa akin. Noong kinuwento niya sa akin at first, I felt stupid. Pero noong tumagal, nabuhayan ako ng loob.
That's great! Well, that's actually how boyfriend and girlfriend should be like -- they help each other and look out after each other. -Athena
AYYYIIIEEE! -Katie
AYYYIIIEEE! -Annye
Ugh! Please stop with that already, you two misfits!
Okay, I'll stop. Because I hate being called a You-Know-What. -Katie
You hate being called a misfit? -Athena
HEY! I SAID I HATE BEING CALLED THAT! -Katie
;( Okay, okay. Don't be too harsh. -Athena
Woah, girls. No need to fight. -Annye
Yeah. You guys shouldn't fight with each other. We should all be friends in this group. That's actually the main purpose of this chat group.
Okay, the day is almost done. I guess one whole day already counts as "double" my phone usage, because I only get to use my phone on schooldays when I'm in the detention room, which is half my whole school day.
Okay guys. I GTG for now. Don't worry. We can still talk tomorrow. Stay sharp, sisters. Bye!
I didn't even wait for them to reply. After typing my final message of the day, I immediately closed my phone.
Jerry's POV
First time kong magsalita sa mga orphans. It actually felt good. If I were in their shoes, sure na sure ako, sobrang hirap ng life.
Titingnan ko ang schedule ko, para kung may free time ako bukas, I'll see if I can book another seminar for the orphans yet again.
I'm sure the orphans will be extremely happy to see me again soon. We might just get along kapag tumagal ang panahon na magkasama kami.
But, of course, I won't set my education and love for Diana aside. I can't wait to see them again.
