Chapter Two: Never In My Life

Kilig is a feeling that you experience when your crush usually does something and you just lose it for some reason, you also experience it with your lover or spouse.

I've had crushes before but never experienced this feeling ever, it's odd, is it really this?

My heart beating way too fast. Smiling and laughing which was an odd thing for me to do because I don't do it often except with Noel or Aster's jokes, I'm also out of breath for a few seconds while I was staring at him and he was doing the same thing, and this surge of excitement... what is this?

Noel explained this to me before and Silas.

I still don't understand it, I thought it was a sign of heart disease until he mentioned red cheeks.

Kung mapula man ang pisngi ko, it's probably because of how cold it was in Mauna Kea, it was snowing so it's normal to have red-colored cheeks or pink.

This is stupid. As if this is actually kilig, just because I have the symptoms doesn't mean I am kilig because of him.

I just met him.

He's the son of someone influential and wealthy, this is just impossible.

He's funny, and pretty nice, so it's normal to feel this way.

It's like meeting someone who's like a breath of fresh air.

Hindi 'to kilig. It just isn't.

"Huy, kanina ka pa."

I returned back to reality thanks to him right beside me, ang lapit niya rin sa'kin at hawak niya pa yung remote ng TV sa harap na'ming dalawa. I'm sitting on top of the couch and he's sitting right next to me.

"What?"

"I said... kanina ka pa."

"Bakit?"

"Kanina pa kita kasi tinatanong, kinakausap, pero parang ang dami mong iniisip, ang daming nasa loob ng kokoti mo, Gwendolyn."

Did he just call me Gwendolyn?

My first name?

People rarely call me by my first name and he gets to call me by it?

I don't know.

Usually, I feel irritated, just a slight bit of irritation but I don't.

I just feel surprised.

"Sorry?"

"Sorry? Wala ka namang nagawang kasalanan?"

"I... don't know?"

I'm confused.

What is happening?

"Ano bang sinabi mo? May inisip lang kasi ako... you know, life..."

There might be something wrong with me.

I cannot believe I am using life as an excuse, what have I become?

"Do you want to watch a movie? Matagal yang usapan ng mga tatay na'tin, alam mo naman... business business yan."

That's true. It's going to be a long talk for sure. Noel probably knows what's up but I'm not sure yet what really is happening, but I'd learn it somehow.
