THE DAY SHE SAID I LOVE YOU

CHAPTER 13

Josh's POV

Nagising akong umaga na wala ako sa wisyo. Hindi naman ako pwedeng umabsent kasi first practice namin ngayon.

Late ako ng 30 minutes dahil tinatamad akong pumasok. I'm here in school, and I'm waiting for Xren si Paul naman nakita ko na kanina sa rooftop. As usual, mas gusto nya yun. Yung laging nasa rooftop. Anyway, pumunta na lang ako sa club. Hindi ko na din inantay si Xren, kasi tinamad na rin akong maghintay sa kanya. Pagdating ko sa room nag start na sila sa vocalization

"Mimimimiyahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaohhhhhhh!!!!! "

Basta vocalization, yan.

After vocalization, We're starting to practice.

Tinawag lahat kami ni coach. She said na ako magiging vocalist ng group namin. Marami kaming gi-nroup. Well, same group lang naman katulad nung naunang group.

Binagay na samin yung piece ng song. I was so shocked! The piece wasn't familiar. "What I'm going to do now?"

"Coach, can I ask something?" Aniya Ko.

"Ohhh sure"

"Coach, I'm not really familiar with the song. Can I change the song?"

"Sorry, Josh, but we need to follow what Ms. said."

Wala na akong nagawa. Wala na din naman akong magagawa eh. Hindi naman ito kasama sa rules ko, eh? Well, my rules are just for my project. The aggrieved project. For those who are not familiar with the project, it is just a project about sa pangbubully namin. Ginagawa lang namin yun kapag may ibubully na kami. Anyway, tinanggap ko na lang yung piece at dinala na lang ako ng aking mga paa pabalik sa grupo ko.

Nagsimula na ang practice. After that, we took a break. Niyaya ko si xren sa canteen para kumain. Dinaanan narin namin si Paul, kaso nagp-practice pa sila kaya umuna na kami sa canteen. Pag-upo namin sa students table ay sakto namang dating ni Paul. Nginitian ko lang sya at lumapit samin.

"How's your practice?"

"Great, really great."

I noticed that Paul was so cheerful. I can't decipher. I guess he had so much fun today. Anyway, I amended the topic. Naisip ko na malapit narin yung birthday ni Cassy, and we planned to go to the Palawan. Para maiba naman yung venue. Lagi na lang kasi sa restaurant.

"I already told her that we're going to go to Palawan to celebrate her birthday."

"Ohhh, ok, I can't wait," Xren said.

Bumalik na kami sa club namin. Mabilis na ding nagsimula yung practice. Hindi manlang nakaupo sa seating place to rest.

Nagsimula na ulit yung practice namin. Well, Ito lang yung naging set up namin the whole week.

D_day The EvENt

Everyone excited. Marami na ding tao sa quadrangle. And I'm really excited to perform. Hindi ko nakita si Paul ngayon. Well, as usual, maybe he doesn't like to join us. Anyway, nandito ako sa side ng stage because I'm waiting for the dean's call. There is someone who caught my attention, and that's Paul with Keziah. They look like a real close friend. Maybe Paul forgot everything. Why is Paul talking with Keziah? Is he forgetting that Keziah is my enemy? Papunta na sana ako sa kanilang dalwa, but Xren was coming. Kaya natigil yun at nag-desisyon na lang akong wag ng tumuloy.

Napansin din ni xren na naguusap sina Paul. "Hey, Dre, look! Why is Paul talking with Keziah?" Nagtataka nyang sinabi.

"I dunno, and I want to know."

"Ahhhhh, I guess they're really closed. Uhhhhh, I remembered last night that Paul was texting me about Keziah. He said, Is that ok na makipagclosed kay Keziah? I said, Maybe, I guess, I think so because I knew the status between you and nd Kezia
