Jabba's POV
"Jab-jab, bakit ka na nagtra-trial balance eh wala ka pang journal entries?!" Ezebel asked me worriedly as if she's about to shout.
Gulat ang mga kaklase namin nang marinig iyon at napadako ang tingin nila sa akin. Nagtaka silang lahat.
"Uhm... A-Advance lang." Tipid kong tugon.
In the midst of our alloted time in answering the quiz, I passed my paper to Sir Jay and went out straight of the class.
Nasa balcony ako ngayon sa tabi at labas ng room para maghintay na matapos sila. Nakalumbaba ako sa nakaharang na bakal habang pinapanood ang mga tao. Siguradong matatagalan pa sila sa pagsagot. I played my analytical sight as I watch people and their initial datas which I considered insignificant and negligible not until I saw a student who is wearing a...
...red cloak.
His large hands were dusty, seems his doing dirty jobs. I glanced down below at him as I see his slacks and shoes were dirty too. I gave it into conclusion that he's digging up for something. Maybe, he's one of the cleaners who buried some trash or...
"...people." I mumbled.
Napahawak ako sa aking mga mata sa sakit. What was that?! Totoo ba ang nabasa ko sa kaniya? Baka na malik-mata lang ako. Hindi ako puwedeng magkamali sa aking nahinuha.
I tried to gaze at him again and my eyes wasn't cooperative to help me analyze him. My tattoos had its own purpose to filter my eyes and lose its special ability. I blinked multiple times to recover my clear vision but I didn't see his figure anymore that I was looking forward to. He already left.
I found him mysterious.
"Oh, Jab-jab. An'yare sa'yo?" Kumusta ni Ezebel. Bumalik ako sa realidad.
Lumapit siya sa akin at hinawakan ang mukha ko. She inspected my eyes. Namula ako sa ginawa niya. She looks so beautiful up close. I turned my head to my side as I remove away the butterfly in my stomach and needles inside my chest.
"Ah, w-wala. Napuwing lang." I acted rubbing my eyes. "Natapos ka na pala, ang bilis mo." I changed the topic.
"Hindi naman. Mas mabilis ka nga eh! Bilib ako sa'yo." Hinampas niya ako nang mahinhin. "I was surprised na kaya mong mag-analisa nang walang hawak na journal entries. Gusto ko sanang gayahin eh pero ang sakit pala sa utak. Medyo nalilito pa rin ako sa mga accounting titles."
Hindi ko mapigilang kiligin habang kinokompliment ako ni crush kaya hindi ko maitago ang ngiti ko. Malamang naka-pogi points ako sa kaniya.
"Actually, basic lang iyon. Sa pamamaraan ko, inintindi ko muna 'yung given transactions bago ako mag-come up nang overall value. I don't have enough patience to jot all down the statements on my notes. Instead, I write them all in my mind." I played it casual but not too boastful.
