Chapter 19: Flashbacks

Di parin maabsorb ng utak ko na dito na din nag-aaral si Jake. Yung schoolmate ko noon. Yung hindi ko kilala noon. Pero ngayon? I don't know, I think I like him... a lot. Siya ang tipong gwapo, mabait, good boy, at matalino. Of course matalino, sa section A nga diba? Bakit kaya siya nagtransfer dito? Dapat di ako mag-aasume, ayoko ng ganito. Di ko kaya.

Habang kumkain kami ni Jake dito, nakita ko si yabang. Kumakain sila ni Carla. I smiled at him but he just rolled his eyes. What's his problem? Why is he being rude? Bahala siya. May nagawa ba ako? He can't even look at me. He's pretty mad I guess.

"Are you okay?" Tanong ni Jake.

"Uhm, oo." Di ko napansin na hindi ko pala nagagalaw ang pagkain ko. Geez.

"Parang may iniisip ka kasing malalim eh. Hindi ka pa nga kumakain." Aniya.

I should just stop thinking about it. Habang kumakain kami, may mga corny na joke siyang sinabi. Hahaha. It made me laugh. Parang dinidistract nga niya ako sa kung anong kababalaghang iniisip ko kanina.

"Let's go?" He stood up.

"Yep." I said with a sweet smle.

Buti nalang nandito siya.

Troy's POV

I'm so disappointed right now. Why? He didn't chose me earlier. He chose Jake as her partner. I'm his bestfriend right? Then why did he picked him? That pig! I was really joking when I called her pig. Did she take it seriously? He picked that stranger over his bestfriend.

Now, I'm here with Carla. We're partners. I asked her earlier if she has a partner. Why did pig didn't asked Carla instead of that stranger Jake? It was okay if she picked Carla over me than him. Carla is so d*mn pretty. She looks so sexy (not in a bad way) and at the same time cute.

Look at now? Pig is MY bestfriend. Take note MY, MINE! She can't even look at me. They were laughing while eating. I wonder what they're talking about. Halata namang masayang-masaya siya eh. With Jake.

Trisha's POV

Tapos na ang classes namin. I went out the room.

"Trisha, sabay na tayo?" Jake asked.

"'Wag na. Sabay kami ni Yab-... I mean Troy."

"Okay. See you tomorrow." Then he smiled. It made me blush. Buti nalang tumalikod na siya at umalis. Whooo!

"Yabang, hintayin mo ako!" I called him. Ugh. Ang bilis niyang maglakad.

"YABANG!" Hindi parin siya tumitigil sa paglalakad.

Ang lakas na ng boses ko ah. Pati mga dumadaan na tao tumitingin na sa 'kin. Can't he hear me? Or is he really mad at me?

And finally, nakahabol na rin ako.

"Yabang?" I'm infront of him right now. Di man lang niya ako matignan. Confirmed. He's mad.

"Okay ka lang ba? Galit ka ba sa 'kin?" I asked him.

He just continued walking. Anonh problema niya?!

"Bakit ka ganyan?! Are you okay?" I said while brushing his hair with my fingers. His soft brown hair.

"I'm fine." Matipid niyang sagot.

"Galit ka ba sa 'kin? Anong ginawa k-"

"You left me."

"Huh?"

"You chose Jake over me."

Ah. So, yun pala. Eh kasi naman kaya nga di ko pinili si Yabang na maging kapartner ko dahil para maging partner sila ni Carla. Pero nalaman kong may partner na pala siya. Eh si Jake naman gustong makapartner ako, ikaw anong gagawin mo? Crush mo kaya ang nagtanong?! Uhm... wait, did I say crush?! Oh no. I like Jake?!

"Eh k-kasi..."

"You chose that jerk."

"He is not a jerk."

"Why did you chose him?"

"Partner lang naman yun s-"

"I'm your bestfriend right?"

"Yeah of course."

"You chose that jerk over your bestfriend?"

"I tell you, he's not a jerk!" My tone was rising. Why am I like this?

"Then a strager." He is so serious, bakit ang serious niya?

"He is not just a stranger!"

"You like him." He said.

"I-I don't."

"Yes, you do."

" . . . "

"I knew it! Hahahaha!" Why is he laughing all of a sudden. "You should've seen your face! Now I can blackmail you too. I thought you were a lesbian or something. Di ka kasi na iinl-"

"Stop it!"

I ran and ran until I saw a tricycle. Pumara ako and went home. Di mo alam yabang. Di ko rin inakala maging ganito ako. Malayo itong narardaman ko ngayon sa 'love'. Admire lang ito. Malayong-malayo ang definition nila.

I fell in love. Got hurt. This might be common. But when you actually feel this. Two words. Ang sakit... I wanted to forget him. No'ng una, ang hirap . . . sobrang hirap. Pero kailangan mong maging matapang para harapin ang mga sitwasyong ganyan.

I was in 7th grade back then. He was bad boy, gwapo, matalino at kung anu-ano pa. I admired him so much. No'ng top 1 ako sa class namin. Obviously, napansin niya ako. Sino ba naman ako? Isang nerd na pangit?! Sino ako para mapansin niya? Hanggang isang araw, nagtext siya sa akin. Alam niya ang number ko? Di ko inaasahan na maging ganon kami. Lagi kaming nagtetext. Kahit sa classroom namin, lagi siyang nakatitig sa 'kin. Di ko rin alam bakit siya laging nakatitig sa akin eh. Sabi niya ako ang ganda ko raw, alam ko namang hindi pero kung galing sa crush mo bakit ang sarap paniwalaan? May iba pang nangyari na ayaw kong ibanggit. Ang sakit lang eh, ang sakit-sakit ng ginawa niya.

Nakalimutan ko na 'yun. Pero kung may mag-banggit tungkol sa 'kin and love. Doon ko naaalala ang lahat ng sakit.
