Gwy's POV
"Nurse Choi, where's my mom?" tanong ko kay Nurse Choi na parang personal assistant niya, ewan ko basta laging nasa office niya si Nurse Choi.
"Nasa OR pa," sagot niya.
"Oh,.. anyways, Merry Christmas po." I greeted her.
"Merry Christman din iha,"-Nurse Choi
"Pumunta na po ba dito si kuya?"
"Hindi pa, sabi ng mama mo kanina nasa Japan daw ngayon."
"Oh, that man. I didn't even know." I whispered. he should brought me with him.

To @Chrtnjusfrr:
Stupid, I already told you my mom is a doctor.
From @Chrtnjusfrr:
Ah, kala ko naman may sakit ka HAAHAHAHAH.
Sabi ko sakanya medyo boring kasi nasa OR pa si Mommy at lumabas si Nurse Choi kaya mag isa lang ako sa office ni Mommy kaya tumawag siya.
[Hakdog ka talaga bui] natatawa niyang sabi.
Kinukwento ko kasi sakanya kung paano ko ineedit yung picture niya na nakacoat at sabi ko pa medyo nahirapan ako dahil nagahahanap ako ng magandang picture niya kasi wala naman siyang maganda picture.
[May multo sana diyan sa tabi mo.]
"I'm not scared sa multo."
[seym erp, sa conyo lang ako takot.] he chuckled. He would always make fun of the way I talk eh wala namang mali sa pagsasalita ko minsan nahahaluhan ng english words because nakakalimutan ko yung tagalog word.
"Anyways, happy birthday again."
[Ikaw din happy birthday,]
"Huh? it's not my birthday."
[Ay, merry christmas pala.] he chuckled.
[Advance happy birthday narin para sa sunod mong birthday.]
"Matagal pa,"
[Kailan? para makaipon naman ako.]
"March, I don't like gifts."
[Yie presence ko nalang? omayghosh hudas! sabi ko na nga ba e! crush mo ko! caught you na erp!]
[Okay lang naman sakin, 'di naman ako papalag.]
"Weird of you, bye na."
[Byeyoutoo crushieyierz] natatawa niyang sagot.
Days have passed by so fast, parang si the flash lang grabe. pero kapag may pasok na naman ang bagal ng oras like how come? how can that happen?
"Konti nalang magd-drop na'ko sis," Zara said looking at her coffee thinking of idea about our presentation. It's just an inspirational idea presentation.
"Then drop," I chuckled.
"Wow, so supportive friend." irita niyang sabi.
I know other might say that BFA students or Bachelor of Fine Arts student are those student na pachill chill lang pero seriously dude, super mahal na ng ginagastos for tools sa mga gagamitin namin, super sabog pa ng utak namin kakaisip ng mga ideas. It's literally not madali.
"Ngayon, magsilabas yung mga hangal na nagsabing madali ang fine arts." inis na sabi ni Zara.
"Still busy with thinking of Idea?" tanong ni Sophia samin na may hawak hawak na illustration board. Obviously, will draw again. Akri student e.
"Pag isip mo nga ako," Zara said looking frustrated.
"Wag niyo'ko idamay diyan." natatawang sabi ni Sophia "May mga plates din akong ginagawa sis,"
*1 message from Doc. CJ*
<Receive>
Busy ka erp?
<Reply>
Nope why?
<Receive>
Samahan magreview, natotoyo na utak ko dito sa bahay. 'di pumapasok mga ninireview ko sa brain ko e.
<Reply>
Sure.
"Hoy saan ka pupunta?" tanong ni Zara at parang nagdududa.
"I will meet someone," I said and gave them smile.
"Someone? sino naman yan?" takang tanong ni Sophia.
"Yung jowa niya, si CJ."-Zara
"He's not my jowa, okay."
"Woah, CJ pala ang bet ng bestfriend ko." natatawang pang aasar sakin ni Sophia. I just rolled my eyes at her.
"Hindi jowa? e, halos araw araw na nga kayong magkasama tapos 'di mo jowa?"-Zara
"Baka wala pang label, wag kang atat." Sophia replied, obviously, nangaasar din like Zara.
"Study first pala ah, naunahan pa'ko magkaroon ng manok."-Zara
"Wow, ikaw pa mawawalan ng chix? that's new." I said, shooting her back.
"Gusto kong asarin si Kath pero I can agree with her na 'di ka pwedeng mawalan ng lalake sa buhay." natatawang sabi ni Sohia. I gave her a proud smile because I am correct.
"By the way, asan na nga pala yung gwapong mayaman mo? yung kinukwento mo last time at ang sabi mo pa he's sweet and gentleman na medyo hawig ni Sean?" natatawa kong tanong sakanya.
may lalaki kasi siyang kinukwento sakin na medyo hawig daw ni Sean tapos nameet niya sa bar. she doesn't usually share story about her men as men kasi madami sila since 'di naman siya into serious relationship dahil nga nagmomodel siya at according sa nakuhanan niyang agency 'di siya pwedeng magkaroon ng boyfriend. but this one guy, I think captured her heart. lagi niya kasing kinukwento e.
"I'm not interested with him, he's into serious relationship." she annoyingly replied.
"Umalis kana nga, puntahan mo na yung walang label mong lalake dun!" irita niyang sabi at sinenyasan paka ng layo gamit ang kamay niya.
"Kath!" tawag ni Sophia sakin.
"CJ is good for you. Mabait, matalino, gwapo, masipag, at mapagmahal yun. medyo gago nga lang pero sobrang maintindihin."
"What are you talking about? he's just my friend." natatawa kong sagot sakanya at naglakad na palabas.
"Erp!!!" parang batang sigaw ni CJ habang ginugulo ang buhok niya.
nandito kami ngayon sa isang cafe at nakalapag sa table namin ang sobrang daming libro niya. I don't even have a plan to read kahit titles lang dahil puro science.
"Promise, talaga promise. kapag pinatay ako ng biochemistry ikaw na bahala sa pamilya ko ah? pakiramdam ko kasi 'di na'ko aabot sa pagiging doctor hanggang pasyente nalang ako." oa niyang sabi.
I just looked at him and I was about to burst out of laughter.
"Yung abuloy mo medyo lakihan mo ah, sasabihan ko din mga kaibigan ko. grabe pasyente ako 'di doctor? soya lang, atleast nasa hospital padin ako." he said looking like someone who is viewing his own future.
"Hala! 'di ako pwedeng mamatay ng 'di nagjojowa, putcha, bakit ba kasi ako nagstudy first study first nayan. demunyu talaga."
"Stupid," malakas ang tawa ko sabay hampas sa ulo niya ang isang libro.
"Ano ba yan, stress na nga ako dito sasaktan mo pa'ko." nageemote niyang sabi.
"So you asked me to be here para lang magrant ka? ano mo'ko rant buddy?"
"Pwede na, atleast 'di fuck buddy. mahirap yun erp." natatawa niyang sagot.
"Yuck!" sabay bato ko sakanya ng libro niya.
"Kath," rinig kong may tumawag sa pangalan ko.
"Hey Kath, ikaw nga!" It was Sabina, one of my highschool classmate. Her mom is the owner of the hospital na pinagtratrabahuhan ng mommy ko. Actually, we aren't really friends nor enemy. we are just really nothing.
"Hey, long time no see." I greeted her with fake smile. I saw how CJ look at me for a minute before laughing quietly on his side.
"Yeah, how are you? I haven't seen you for ages."
"I'm good, how about you?" I replied.
"Same, I am currently preparing things I need for my flight to new york in xen--" she didn't finish what she was supposed to say because she acts like she saw a ghost.
"You didn't pass right?" she asked with sad tone but her face says different thing. napakamot nalang si CJ sa narinig niya.
"Yeah I didn't, I guess you did." I said with fake smiles.
"Of course, my parents are one of the investor of Xenon Academy." She replied confidently.
"Yabang," CJ whispered buti nalang 'di narinig ni Sabina.
"Good for you," I replied.
they are rich. they can definitely enter to any school they want.
"Achoo~" CJ said faking his own sneeze.
"Oh... Hi, fever?"
"Ah hindi, hehe.... allergic ako sa mga aso e." sabay kamot niya sa ulo niya at yung isang kamay niya at nakahawak sa may ilong.
"Ha?" takang tanong ni Sabina sakanya.
"Hakdogerz," CJ replied with bright smile.
"Is he your boyfriend?" baling ni Sabina ang mga tingin niya sakin.
"No,"
"You can introduce me to him," she whispered. bulong na halatang pinaparinig niya sakin.
"You can introduce yourself."
She smiled so wide before facing CJ again.
"Hi, I'm Sabina from Hale. I will study in Xenon Academy next year." pagpapakilala ni Sabina kay CJ at naglahad pa ng kamay.
"CJ, UERM. sorry, sabi ng nanay ko bawal ako humawak ng aso e." sabay kamot niya sa ulo.
"Alis na kami ah, ingat ka. Goodluck, kapag gusto mo magpagamot tawagan mo'ko. magiging vet student ako para sayo." I was shock by what CJ just said kaya 'di ko namalayan na inakbayan niya ako palabas ng coffee shop.
"What did you just say?!" gulat kong tanong sakanya.
"Vet Student." he chuckled.
"Anong asong pinagsasabi mo? maganda naman siya ah." natatawa kong tanong ko sakanya.
"Maganda nga yabang naman ng ugali wala din."
"Tignan mo ikaw, ganda mo na mabait pa kaya mas lalo kang gumaganda."
I was taken aback by what he just said.
"Wag ka kiligin erp," natatawa niya pang sabi. I just rolled my eyes at him.
"Mapanglait ka no!"
"Luh? di ah," nakapout niyang sagot.
" Kaano ano mo ba yun? bespren? ex bespren?"
"One of my old friends, she treated me as her rival kaya 'di na kami naguusap."
"Ah intimidated."
"I don't think so, why would she? she's the one who pass in Xenon." I whispered at nauna ng naglakad sakanya.
totoo naman e, mas nauna siyang pumasa sa Xenon ibig sabihin mas magaling siya sakin. Kahit na malaki ang connections ni Sabina sa Xenon Academy 'di mo maikakaila na magaling siya. But for assurance gumagamit siya ng connections para makapasa.
"Ako na mag-drive," sabay kuha ni CJ ng susi sa may kamay ko.
tahimik lang kami habang nasa byahe ng bigla niyang ihinto ang sasakyan sa may tabi.
"Success after failure is one of the greatest success. Hold unto that." he said out of nowhere.
"What if it's not really for me?"
"Failure doesn't always mean giving up, it just mean you have to take time to invest the seed you planted."
"Also, the only failure without success is when you give up. Success comes in many ways not just in terms of passing or being on top. It can be a lesson that will make you grow into someone better than your old self."
natahimik lang kaming dalawa ulit. sinusubukan kong pigilan ang mga luha ko nakakahiya naman kasing makita niya'kong umiiyak.
"Umiyak ka kung gusto mong umiyak basta wag kang susuko." he said at tinanggal ang seatbelt niya at pinalawak ang dalawang kamay na parang naghihintay na yakapin ko siya.
"Ano yan?" nakataas ang isang kilay kong tanong sakanya.
"Mahirap umiyak ng walang sinasandalan." he whispered at mas lalo akong nilapit sa mga bisig niya para mayakap.
My heart started beating faster, I don't even know why. Because I started knowing CJ as someone who's not so serious with life, weird, and joker.
So it gives me a different feeling for him right now that he is being serious.
Some people might think that he tends to joke around alot at lahat ng sinasabi niya walang mga sense. Pero marunong siyang magseryoso sa mga bagay na kailangan seryosohin.
"Bakit naturing na tangang superhero si Superman?" he asked seriously out of nowhere at nakayakap parin saakin.
"Huh? what do you mean? superman?"
"Basta, tanong mo nalang bakit."
"Bakit?" bored kong sagot.
"Kasi inuna niya yung brief niya kesa sa shorts." malakas ang tawa niyang sabi at may pahampas hampas pa siyang nalalaman sa may manebela. Medyo napaisip ako sa sinabi niya pero tama naman siya, I also wonder why superman dress like that. How can he think about those things? puro kagaguhan nalang ba talaga ang nasa isip niya?
"Heto pa, bakit naturing naman si Batman na mas tanga kesa kay Superman?" tanong niya pa na nagpipigil ng tawa.
"Why?"
"Kasi ginaya niya si Batman." natatawa niya pang sabi.
"Seriously, bakit ka natatawa sa mga corny jokes mo?" natatawa kong tanong sakanya.
"Selp support is the greatest of all greatest with twin pack is the greatest support erp." confident niyang sagot.
But, Actually, it's just a joke for him pero totoo naman talaga. Sinong susuporta sayo kung ikaw mismo 'di mo sinusuportahan ang sarili mo.
"NUKS! NAKAKAPROUD NAMAN AKO!" malakas ang boses niyang sabi.
"Huh?"
"Nag advice ako tapos in english pa, GRAVITY! TUMATALINO NA'KO! baka sa susunod 'di na CJ da greyt itawag nila sakin kun'di CJ Einstein. HOMAYGOSH PAGASPAS! nikikilig ako." he said in kinikilig tone.
Gosh, binabawai ko na lahat ng magagandang bagay na sinabi ko sakanya kanina. He's still weird and corny joker.
