02 : he smiled

"Ba't ba gustong gusto mo ako maging kaibigan?" Iritadong tanong ni Haruto.

"Because my soft friendly heart can't bare you being like that."

"Being like what?"

Napabuga ako ng hangin.

"Being like an introvert."

He stilled. But his face remained calm but cold.

"I don't want to be your friend." Seryoso niyang sabi.

'Di ko alam kung bakit ako nasasaktan.

"Wait—are you freaking crying?!"

Mabilis kong pinahid ang mga luha kong 'di ko alam na nakatakas na pala galing sa mata ko.

"I told you! My soft friendly heart can't bare you being like that."

"You cried just because I'm being like this?" 'Di makapaniwalang tanong niya.

Tumango ako.

"When a person is in need, friends are the most capable of helping them." I said.

Matiim niya akong tinitigan.

Lumapit siya sa'kin. Kaagad naman akong umatras.

He smirked. The first time I saw him not being cold. The first time I saw that his expression wasn't blank.

"Look at you," aniya. "Being scared with this introvert." Sabi pa nito habang lumalapit pa sa'kin.

Umatras naman ako.

He smirked again.

"What if I'll kiss you?"

"Ya!" 'Di ko mapigilang mapasigaw.

"Kung hahalikan ba kita, saka mo lang maiisip na hindi tayo pwedeng  maging mag-kaibigan?"

"Wah," napabuga ako ng marahas na hangin sa mga pinagsasabi niya. "Jinja. You're making my head hurt." I murmured and massaged my forehead.

But I think he heard it that's why he's grinning from ear to ear.

Nanlamig ang katawan ko nang hawakan niya ang batok ko.

"Y-Ya!" Walang lakas na sigaw ko.
