She's dating the nerd

Car ride

Jennie's POV:

Lisa was annoyed with me taking my time na ngumuya, mga 5 seconds na lang at mag-go-go na ang lane namin doon ko lang nilunok ang kinakain ko at tsaka ako nag-salita.

"Sa Jung-gu District." I said to her.

"Perfect, doon din ako naka-tira eh. Saan don?" She asked me.

"Sa Dasan-dong." I answered.

She smiled at me and said.

"Tiga Cheonggu-dong ako." She said.

"Okay." I said to her.

She was making small talks na parang okay lang ang lahat sa amin. Parang hindi nya gets na naiinis pa din ako sa kanya kasi pinag-hintay nya ako ng isang oras. She fell silent afterwards. Kanina pa siya actually gumagawa ng small talks, I keep shutting her down dahil sa inis ko sa kanya. She hugged me earlier, takot naman pala siyang mawala sa hiphop crew nya eh, pero hindi ko pa din gets bakit siya sobrang hyper and who in their right minds would hug a person they barely know? Nagulat nga siya na malamang magka-block mates pala kami sa school at alam ko na magaling din siya sa academics nya tapos hinug nya ako?! Ano ba to? Tila ata nahawa siya doon sa dalawang alipores nya na may 4D Personality. Napa-iling na lang ako sa inaarte neto ni Manoban. Her street is a block away from my house, the neighborhood we lived in was peaceful and boasted of big houses. We were about two kilometers away from school. Easy lang talaga mag-commute from our neighborhood to the university na pinapasukan namin, see? Kaya hindi ko pa din naiintindihan si Lisa kung bakit lagi siyang late. Ito ang iniisip ko sa ngayon as she drove past her street and made a turn sa kabilang dulo ng street nila.

"Saan ang bahay mo dito?" Lisa asked me.

"Third house to your left." I answered her.

Ipinarada nya ang sasakyan nya sa harapan ng bahay namin and waited for me to finish my food as she did hers. After kong kumain I gathered my stuff on my lap and unbuckled myself from the seat and spoke to her briefly.

"Thank you for the ride and the snacks, next time wag mo na akong pag-aantayin ng isang oras. Mag-text ka man lang kung hindi ka na pupunta para idederecho na kita ng sumbong kay Miss Jandel. Para ipatanggal ka nya sa Hiphop crew mo." I said to her rather coldly.

"Opo, hindi na mauulit Miss Jennie Kim." She said smiling.

Ang cute nya talagang ngumiti pero mas nakakainis pa din siya sa inaasal nya.

"I'm serious Lisa." I said to her.

"Yeah, okay okay. I know you are serious. Nag-sorry na din naman ako ah? It was an honest mistake, madami kasi akong iniisip para sa nationals namin, hayaan mo bukas hindi ko na kakalimutan. Pwede namang patawarin mo na ako diba?" She said to me.

"Like what I said hindi naman ako galit sayo, a little annoyed yes. Don't say sorry unless you mean it okay?" I said to her as I opened the door to her car.

"Okay. See you tomorrow Jennie." She said to me.

Hindi ko din maintindihan bakit ganun na lang ang inis ko kay Lisa, pero hindi ko din maipagkakailang cute siya and maganda. Especially when she dances, I watched her dance on intermission numbers sa mga programs sa school, there are times that I pass by their dance room sa school at minsan naka-bukas ang pinto at nakikita ko siya na nag-sasayaw, madalas mag-isa or minsan kasama ang mga alipores nya. Tuluyan na akong naka-baba sa sasakyan nya at pumasok na sa loob ng gate ng bahay namin, I saw her take off probably mad about the interaction we had. Siya naman kasi ang may kasalanan kung bakit ako na-bad trip sa kanya.

Sino ba namang hindi magagalit kung isang oras ka nang naghihintay sa library para sa wala. Ayaw na ayaw ko pa naman ang naghihintay sa mga tao. I have a few friends at school pero bilang lang sa daliri kung sino ang mga kaibigan ko, I mostly don't talk to people that easy save for the other classmates na naging ka-group ko na sa isang subject. Madalas laman ng usapan nila si Lisa Manoban at ang mga alipores nya. While most of them have crushes on each member of Lisa's Hiphop crew, most of them have bad stuff to say about Lisa in particular. Nakakainis lang kasi tila wala siyang paki-alam sa sinasabi ng mga tao sa kanya. Like Rabbit and Rosé she has a 4D attitude and it's making me feel annoyed dahil una sa lahat she disrespects everyone's time, she thinks she's funny when all we ever wanted was to get over the class and move on to the next. Pero kahit ganun siya, I discovered she apologizes for her mistakes at umeffort naman ito sa panunuyo. Totoo nga ata ang bali-balita na pumapatol si Manoban kahit kanino. I heard one of her close friends call her 'Limario' at yung isa naman minsan Nalalisa ang tawag sa kanya. May iba din tinatawag siyang Oppa Limario. The first time I heard of that monicker, I was wondering if people were blind and doesn't recognize her as a girl, ayun pala eh dahil sobrang ganda nya habang sumasayaw, todo bigay ito at talagang kahit sino eh mai-in love sa kanya sa galing nyang sumayaw.

I entered our house and as expected wala pang tao sa bahay except ang mga katulong namin, My mom works for a production company as an executive director sa production house ng kanyang mga magulang and my Dad owned several malls in Korea. CEO si daddy ng Kim Land Holdings Inc. aside from malls, my dad owns several high rise condo towers all over Korea. Mom was Executive Director for Talent Acquisition sa KM Entertainment. Sya ang nagscreen sa mga trainees ng entertainment company ng Lolo ko. Kaya pangkaraniwang ang mga katulong lang ang kasama ko lagi sa bahay. I actually have my own car, pero mas gusto ko yung nag-cocommute ako at sumasakay ng bus. I discover people and their behavior towards others when I take public transport. It gives me ample of time to get absorbed in my music, humming along or most times, singing along the music that I play on my phone.

I was pulled out of my reverie when my phone vibrated. Inilapag ko muna ang gamit ko sa couch before I took my phone out from my pocket to see who it was.

From: +312-****7789

Hey, this is Lisa Manoban. Salamat nga pala kanina sa reviewer na ginawa mo para sa akin. Again, I truly apologize for making you wait for an hour for me. Hindi na ito mauulit. Peace na tayo pwede ba? 😁

The message read, makulit talaga siya kahit sa totoo lang wala naman siyang dapat ipag-sorry dahil naka-bawi na siya sa akin sa pag-hatid nya at sa libre nya ng snacks. I saved her number first by the name of Limario, it's her cutest nickname for me.

Me: You don't need to say sorry. If there is anything I should be the one saying sorry, kase napahiya kita kanina sa Hiphop crew mo and sorry din kasi inilabas ko sayo lahat ng sama ng loob ko sayo all these years. Let's call it quits, deal?

Limario: Cool. I prolly deserve that Jennie, salamat sa pag-umpog mo sa akin sa katotohanan. I appreciate people who stay true and speak their minds, you are one in a million. Not everyone speaks what they are thinking of, ikaw lang ata ang ganyan, hindi affected sakin. ✌️🤣

Me: Magreview ka na or mag-practice. Madami pa akong gagawin. Inaabala mo nanaman ako. 🙄

Limario: Ay sorry po madame! Nakaka-abala na pala ako. ✌️😁 Back to practice na ako at mamaya bago matulog magrereview na sa English Lit. Para hindi ka naman mapahiya sakin. Good night Jennie. Thank you ulit.

Me: Sige, mag-ingat ka pauwi mo. Madalas ka pa namang matulala. Goodnight, Lisa and thank you din for the ride and the snacks. I appreciate everything you have done for me. ♥️

Once nasend ko na ang message ko, I laid out my books sa sala at gumawa na ng mga assignments. Konti na lang naman ang gagawin kong assignment, dahil natapos ko na karamihan kanina pa sa school.

A/N:

One point for Limario. 🤣✌️😂 Pogi ni Lisa don. 🤣😂 Oh my god, lumalambot ka na ba Mareng Jennie? 🤣

Salamat folks for supporting my stories. Nakakataba kayo ng puso. 🤣😂✌️

Always spread light and love!
