08 : let's make it official

"Yeji, bati na tayo."

"Yeji!"

"Chingu!"

"Sorry na kasi."

"I didn't mean to lie to you. I'm sorry." Napatingin ako sakanya.

I don't like seeing this kind of Junkyu. Junkyu's always smiling, always laughing, He's always happy. Not like this. Being dead serious like a zombie.

I'm not mad. Nagtatampo lang ako. But sooner or later, kailangan ko siyang pansinin. He's my friend after all.

I clearly understand his point of view. But, what about me? But at the same time, I think that it's just right to have him with Yuna. Para naman siya mismo ang makakapagpabago ng pananaw niya kay Yuna.

"Kyu." Kaagad naman siyang napatingin sa'kin.

His face brightened.

"Smile." I said.

Ngumiti naman siya ng napaka-lapad. Natawa naman ako ng bahagya.

"Bati na tayo?"

Tumango ako bilang sagot at iniyakap siya.

Humarap ako kay Junkyu at umayos ng tayo.

"Kyu, I think I like him."

Kaagad namang nainitindihan niya ang tinutukoy ko kaya naman hinawakan niya ang magkabilang balikat ko at gulat na tumingin sa'kin.

"Seryoso?"

"Do you think I'm joking?!"

Umiling siya.

Bumuga ako ng marahas na hangin.

"What should I do, chingu?"

"Tell him. Be honest with him. And if you're happy with it. Live in the moment."

Tumango ako. Junkyu is really good at giving advices recently. What happened to him? He sounds mature, now.

"By the way, ngayong magkaiba na tayo ng schedules this semester. Siguro, text-text na lang?" Nakasimangot niyang sabi.

I pouted and glared at him.

"Okay, okay, fine. I'll find a way to talk to you, okay?"
