Selena's Sentiment

_________________________

"Alair...Wake up...We're going to be late for the meeting..." naalimpungatan ako dahil sa boses ni Blagden galing sa labas ng tent ko.

Dahil tela lang naman yung tent ay tagos na tagos yung liwanag ng araw. I stretched my arm. "I'm awake..." I informed him.

"Can I open your door?" paalam niya. I really appreciate the way he respects my privacy and the things that belongs to my vicinity.

I combed my hair. Binilisan ko yung galaw ko, I checked my face sa mini mirror na dala ko, tinanggal ko rin yung mga muta. I sprayed a mint scent spray in my mouth. I fixed my pillow.

"Yes..." I finally replied.

I heard and watched as he unzipped the door. When he opened it, the light came inside. He blocked the light by moving in front me. Ay shuta, ang gwapo naman.

"Good morning, beautiful tiger." he greeted me.

I smiled before greeting him back. "Good morning din." bati ko.

He chuckled a little bit. "Almost all students are at the stadium now. Let's go." he said. "Oh, wait. Here." inabot niya yung water saakin. "This is mine." kumunot ang noo ko nang ipakita niya saakin yung isang plastic bottle na may laman.

"Give me that." I said, referring to his bottle.

"But this is yours..." he said.

"I want yours." agad siyang umiwas ng tingin. I can see him doing something to his mouth to stop himself from smiling. "Well?" I said.

He cleared his throat before giving his bottle to me. "Y-You need to drink water first thing in the morning. Your body needs water because almost 10 hours na hindi ka uminom, you might get dehydrated." paalala niya habang pinapanood akong uminom. Hindi pa rin nawawala yung ngiti niya sa labi niya.

After drinking, tumayo na rin ako. Nakapajama palang ako, nakakahiya sakaniya na mukhang model ng plain shirt and pajama.

Dahil wala naman full body mirror dito, I faced him and asked about my appearance. I tied my hair in a bun. "Do I look okay?"

"You always look gorgeous, Alair." damn him and his words. They always give me butterflies.

I just smiled at him. Habang naglalakad kami papunta sa assembly hall ay napansin kong kaunti nalang mga kasabay namin na pumupunta doon. Mukhang napansin niya yung pagtataka ko kaya he gave an explanation.

"They called the students by 6:00 am." he said and checked his watch. "It's 6:40 am, though. Why can't I hear any sound from the microphone or just the speakers?" he said at napatingin sa malaking building di kalayuan.

Malalaki yung mata kong tumingin sakaniya. "Hala! Edi late ka na! Dapat nauna ka na dun. I can go by myself naman."

Umiling agad siya. "Nah. How could I leave you?"

Napaiwas ako ng tingin. Ano ba? Kailan ba matatapos pagpapakilig niya. Nag isip ako ng sasabihin at buti nalang may utak ako ngayon. Nilabas ko yung phone ko at inopen yung instagram ko.

"Look, many people loved the pictures that you took yesterday." I said and showed him.

He smiled as he looked at it, medyo gumalaw pa pataas yung mata niya sa username ko. "I love that too." he said before looking at me. He put his hands on his pockets.
