The Girl Suitor [ON GOING]

TGS: I love you

"Hi Jasmine!"

Hinanap ko kung saang lugar nanggaling ang boses nang tumawag sa akin. The moment my eyes laid on the girl, I smiled and waived my right hand before proceeding to my next class habang nasa likuran ko

I'm not with Rebecca and Helena since I just came back from my lunch with Kislev, hindi ko alam kung paano namin naubos ang apat na oras na break. I even didn't know that it was already his last class at talagang sinadya niya na lang ako para sa tinatawag niyang "lunch" kuno,

"C-come again?" I asked one more time, not wanting to accept what I just heard

Did he just ask me out for lunch? Ni hindi ko napaghandaan ang gusto niya!

"I said, do you want to have lunch with me?" he smiled

Inikot ko ang paningin sa paligid, hoping to find my friends but they were nowhere to be found! Iniwan ba nila ako? I scoffed, how dare they?!

I looked at him, trying to find out if he's joking or not. Nang bigo akong makita iyon ay malalim ang pagbubuntong hininga ko bago tumango sa paanyaya niya,

He offered to go out of the room first before he led the way, dumiretso kami sa parking lot at napagtanto ko na sa labas niya balak kumain. After all, it would be an issue if we were seen at the cafeteria dining together! Isa pa ay baka isipin na biktima ko na siya. Hell, I can still remember our last encounter. He humiliated me in front of everyone!

Hindi ko na inaantay na pagbuksan niya ako nang pinto dahil kaya ko naman, I entered the front seat and immediately buckled myself with seatbelt. Nilingon ko siya nang makitang shinift niya na ang gear para makaalis,

"We're going to dine outside?" I asked the obvious,

Tumango siya nang hindi ako nililingon, "How long is your break?"

"4 hours?" patanong kong sagot, confused with the reason why he asked it

Nanatili siyang tahimik habang nag-dadrive. I thought we're going to eat somewhere near the school pero laking gulat ko nang makitang nasa expressway na kami papuntang Manila. I was busy enjoying the view when I got bored of the silence, sumulyap ako sa kanya pero ang kaliwang braso niya ay nakatungkod sa pintuan at nilalaro ang labi habang ang kabila ay nakahawak sa manibela.

Nakita kong papasok na kami ng Toll kaya nakatigil ang sasakyan, tumikhim ako para makuha ang kanyang atensyon.

"Can I connect my phone?" turo ko sa stereo ng kanyang sasakyan

Mabilis niyang binitawan ang labing nilalaro at may pinindot doon sa stereo. Lumabas ang connecting Bluetooth sign, "Connect here, look for Benz Ked"

Agad ko naman nahanap iyon at sinubukang kumonekta, nakita kong umatras siya para makapagsimula na uling magmaneho kaya inubos ko ang oras sa pagpipili ng magandang kanta,
