Morayta Encounter

Chapter 15

I woke up around 11 am the next day. I slept late dahil sa kakatoss and turn ko sa kama, hindi ako makaget-over sa mga nangyari, may guilt feeling pero mas nangingibabaw ang saya at...

Yeah, kilig. Kaya halos mapatili na ako kapag naaalala ko 'yong mga pinanggagawa namin.

We hugged. We kissed. We held hands.

I can't believe I'm saying things like that but I guess it's really the truth. I am damn smitten.

Napatakip ako ng mukha.

"Aaaaahhh!" I hugged my pillow saka ngumiti.

I'm kind of excited to see him later. Hindi ko alam na ganito pala 'yon, nakakabaliw pero sana ay huwag namang masobrahan.

I started my everyday ritual. Linis ng kwarto. Maghanda ng pagkain. Kumain. Maligo.

At ngayon dahil makakasama ko siya, maybe I should try to fix myself or something...

I put on the nicest dress that I saw in my closet and I tried to apply the make-up that Valerie left weeks ago. Hindi ako marunong, nagsearch lang ako ng video sa youtube para makagawa ng simple everyday make-up look. Buti nalang ay kumpleto ang gamit na iniwan ni Val.

I stopped when I suddenly remembered Vann. I really feel sorry for him and I shouldn't have shut the door like that.

I sighed.

After Christmas break, I'll try to talk to him to apologize and set things straight. Magmumukha akong ingrata pero mas masama naman kung pipilitin ko ang sariling kong gustuhin siya kung hindi ko naman siya kayang gustuhin.

But as for now, I'll just think about going to church.

I applied the make-up products carefully at sa tingin ko naman ay maayos naman ang naging resulta.

I just let my short black hair down.

2:30 when I received a text from him, saying that he's on the way to my unit. I nervously sighed before picking my bag up.

Nakangiti akong sumalubong sa kanya pagbukas ng pinto.

"Hi." Nakangiti niyang bati.

"Uh, let's go?" I awkwardly said dahil hindi ko nanaman mapigilan ang pag ngiti ko.

"Sure, babe." He suddenly held my hand and I tried hard to suppress my smile.

Just like that, we went inside the elevator, hand by hand.

I don't know what are we now, kung may label ba o wala, but I am undeniably so happy with this...

"Saan pala tayo magsisimba?" I asked him no'ng makasakay na kami sa car niya.

"Hmm, malapit lang." He winked saka itinuro ang school nila na nasa malapit na kanto lang.

"Nagsisimba ka rin pala sa UST."

"Today's my second time."

I raised a brow. " When was the first?" I'm just kind of curious.

"When I was in senior high school," he smirked at napaiwas naman ako ng tingin dahil may naalala ako. Puchang 'to!

"Don't worry babe, I'm with my mom." He said like he could read my mind.

"Feeling ka! Hindi 'yon ang iniisip ko!" Giit ko sa kanya kahit na medyo naisip ko naman talaga 'yon.

"Hmm, really? 'Coz I don't think so."

"Wow! Feelingero talaga!" I looked outside, trying to avoid his gaze, nanunukso eh.
