The Day You Said Goodbye

Chapter 8

Gaya ng dati, sinundan ko lang ang kurimaw na si Josh at hindi hinabol. Bakit ko nga naman hahabulin, e kung nadapa ako edi swerte ng lupa, nayakap pa ako.

Nakarating ako ng classroom at naabutan siyang hingal na hingal sa upuan niya. Wala pang prof.

"O napagod ka no? Tanga mo kasi. Asa ka namang hahabulin kita." I said while handling him a bottle of water.

"Naks naman. Ang thoughtful talaga ng baby ko. Halika nga ikikiss kita." sabi nito. Bigla niya akong hinila paupo sa lap niya sabay yakap saken mula sa likod ko.

"Baby your face ulul!" sagot ko at nag pumiglas. Tatawa tawa lang ang kurimaw habang ayaw nitong bitawan ang kamay ko.

"Tss.. ingay naman." Biglang sabat ng junior ni satanas. Sino pa edi si Suzaine. Kabago bago akala mo kung sino umasta.

Biglang lumapit si Tracy sakanya. Hinila nito ang isang upuan at umupo sa harap ni Suzaine at nangalumbaba na parang nagpapa cute pa. "Hi Suzaine. I'm Tracy by the way. I heard you came from Illea Academy and you're a topnotcher there? So what makes you decide to transferred here in Oxford?"

"What do you care?" sagot ng supladong Suzaine. Nagulat at namula si Tracy sa hiya. Parte rin si Tracy ng mga Elites na kinabibilangan ko, even though we almost have the same set of life hindi ko pinangarap kaibiganin yan. Sosyalera,Maarte at bitch pa. E ako may iaarte talaga kasi dyosa ako.

"Hey, I'm just being friendly. Para naman may kausap ka. Kanina ka pa kasi walang kibo."

"I don't give a damn." pambabara ng matsing kay Tracy.

"You're playing hard to get, are you? I just want to welcome you in our school so that you will enjoy staying here that's all." Tracy said and flashed a seductive smile.

Tinaasan siya ng kilay ni Suzaine. "Go away. Shoo!" pagtataboy nito at ikinumpas ang kanang kamay na parang nangbubugaw ng aso.

"Hey, you're being rude. Common, stop playing chic." Hinablot nito ang braso ni Suzaine at inangkla ang kamay dito na parang close sila. "I'll tell you about myself more and I guess you're intereste--"

"I SAID GO AWAY!" Nagulat kaming lahat sa biglang pag sigaw ni Suzaine. Lahat kami napako ang tingin sa kanilang dalawa lalo na ng marahas niyang tanggalin ang pagkakakapit ng kamay ni Tracy sa braso niya. Konting pitik na lang iiyak na ito. "What on earth can't you understand when I said 'go away' you stupid."

Biglang tumayo si Josh kaya pati ako mejo nahila dahil hindi niya parin binibitawan ang kamay ko.

"Hey man, I think you're being too harsh to the girl." paninita nito kay Suzaine.

Napatingin ito sa kamay namin ni Josh. Nalukot ang mukha nito. Tumayo siya at lumapit kay Josh. Yung tipong dikit na mga dibdib nila at nagsukatan sila ng tingin na tila hinahamon ang isa't isa ng away. "Now, look whose playing a hero here." Pang uuyam ni Suzaine kay Josh.

"I'm not dude. I'm just trying to be fair and you're being unfair. Is that how you treat and respect a girl?" Tarantado talaga 'tong Josh na to, palaban din eh.

"Why? What's your knowledge about the proper treatment and respecting for a girl? Hugging her? kissing her? holding her hands? in front of the crowd? is that it? Do you think it's like PDA-ying? is that what you called respect?" sarkastikong turan nito sabay tingin ulit sa magkahawak naming kamay. Napatayo ako at reresbak na sana.

Josh smirked and he suddenly put his arms around my waist at kinabig ako palapit lalo sakanya.

"Are you jealous dude? don't tell me you like my girl? sorry but you cannot have her as long as I'm still here." Anito sabay talikod para di na maka imik ang gagong kaharap namin. Inalalayan niya akong umupo.

"Hey, I thought ako ang pinag aawayan niyo? why it turned out all of a sudden to Alexa?" maarteng turan ni Tracy. Walang pumansin sa kanya kaya bumalik nalang din siya sa upuan niya.

I lean closer to Josh tsaka ako bumulong. "Woah! That was so cool Josh." Bigla siyang lumingon saken na muntik ko ng mahalikan.

Nagkatitigan kami. Ngumiti siya saken. "Edi inlove ka na saken niyan?" hirit niya kaya bigla kong sinapak.

"Araay! galit ka nanaman. Akala mo siguro makakahalik ka na saken no? Huh! ligawan mo muna ako uyy! strict parents ko. hahahahahahahahahaha.." sabay tawa ng malakas at labas ang ngala ngala.

Napasimangot ako. Bigla akong pumunit ng isang page ng libro sabay crample tsaka ko pinasak sa bunganga niya. This time ako ang natawa. Ang epic kasi ng itsura niya. Yung ang sarap ng tawa niya todo nga nga tapos biglang nabilaukan dahil pinakain ko ng papel.

"Yan, sige tawa ka pa. Kala mo ha."

Zac's POV

"Sir, you called for me?" I asked, stepping into his private office.

"Please come in. I'm going to give you the rest of my papers for you to work on it. Would it be okay with you, son?"

"Of course sir. It's not a problem with me." I answered as I called him in 'sir' because that was the right term when we're inside of work.

"I know I can count on you." He gave me a weak smile.

"Something's bothering you?" I asked with worried face.

"I will fly back again to Paris. That's why im leaving you these documents."

"Would you mind asking me Dad? What are you doing in Paris? You even don't have any business meetings and tours but you keep on coming back there."

He sigh."Someone needs my help." he just answered.

"Dad, I'm sorry but I think I need to confront you now." I said. Maybe this is the right time para hingin ang paliwanag niya sa isang bagay na naging dahilan ng matinding galit ni Alexa sa kanya.

"What do you mean, hijo?"

"Is there something between you and Maxene?" I ask.

"Maxene?" he ask back with comfusion.

"Maxene. Alexa's bestfriend." I clarify.

"What are you talking about son? Are you accusing me as a pedophile?" He said in disbelief.

"Tell me, you're not cheating mom, are you?"

"Of course not Zac. I love your mom after all. Where did you get that gossips?"

"No Dad, that was Alexa's idea. She's also having a doubt that you are hiding Dylan to her. And I'm starting to believe her conclusion."

He just laughed as if I cracked a funniest joke. "Your sister was really unbelievable and unpredictable. She's also sometimes very incredible and extraordinary. Well, I'll tell you the truth but you have to promise me not to mention this to your little sister. Do you understand, Zachary?

I just nodded.
