"Beh, kinakabahan ako sa exam" Si Santi.
We're at UP Diliman now to take the UPCAT. Dito kasi ang napili naming test center. Ito na ang araw. We reviewed really hard these past two weeks so we hope that all our efforts won't go to waste. I badly want to pass the UPCAT and go to UP for college since it has free tuition. Para na rin hindi na ako aasa sa perang binibigay ng tatay ko kahit responsibilidad naman niya iyon.
"Kumalma ka nga, Santi. Hindi ka naman tutuloy sa UP if ever." Aya stated as a matter of fact. Napaisip tuloy si Santi sa sinabi ni Aya.
"Oo nga noh." sabi ni Santi at tumawa ng mahina.
Kinuha ko muna ang phone ko para mag review ulit since hindi pa naman kami pinapapasok sa assigned rooms namin. Our exam was scheduled in the afternoon and it's still 11:00 AM so we still have an hour and a half to ready ourselves and to eat lunch. I was about to follow the girls for lunch when my phone rang.
"Zaiden?" tanong ko sa kanya. We're now facetiming each other. He looked so fresh kahit magulo ang buhok nya which I assume na kakagising lang nya from his sleep.
"Hey, did you eat lunch na?" he asked me back. "Not yet, was about to with the girls." I replied. "Ikaw ba?"
"As much as I want to eat lunch with you, I can't... We landed 3 hours ago here in Taiwan kasi we were invited to a wedding." he said trying not to sound disappointed. Kaya pala iba yung lighting nya kasi nasa Taiwan na pala sya.
"It's okay, Zaiden. Nagkita naman tayo kahapon eh. You know... you have to unwind yourself a bit kasi baka nagsasawa ka na sa pagmumukha ko." pagbibiro ko sa kanya pero hindi sya natawa.
"You know I will never get tired of you, Elle." he said in a serious tone but still showing his dimple. Nang-aakit ba sya?
"Anyways, good luck sa exam. And I sent you something. Just wait for it." he said and winked at me. Grabe kahit sa facetime ang harot pa rin.
"Yeah, thank you. Zaiden. Ingat kayo!" I said and was about to end the call when he halted me. "Why?"
"Before you end this call, can you give me a kiss." he said while doing the puppy eyes. He looked... very adorable right now. Really. Kung nakikita pa ito ni Jo, panigurado akong aasarin talaga nya si Zaiden.
"No..." I said to him jokingly and smiled. He pouted more. He looked exactly like the emoji with watery eyes. "Bye na, Zed. I still need to eat." I stated and ended the call. Finally.
Kumakain kami ngayon ng lunch habang nagrereview. We did a question-and-answer exercise to retain and remember the lessons that we studied. I just hope we do well in the exam. And for those who will take the exam also.
Naalala ko tuloy yung hiningi ni Zaiden kanina. Kawawa naman at hindi napagbigyan. Kinuha ko yung cellphone ko at sinearch yung username ni Zaiden sa Instagram. I just felt the need to send him something also. Hindi dapat siya lang palagi.

"Hmmm, excuse me. Sino po si Elle Rivera?" tanong ng rider ng food panda sa aming tatlo. Who would send something to me? Was this the one Zaiden talked about earlier?
"Ako po, kanino po galing?" I asked the rider. I was now being looked at by Santi and Aya with attentive eyes. Hindi ko nalang muna iyon pinansin.
