Misguided Stars

Chapter 21

In her perspective…

Today is Ateneo's first game of the season. Thirdy gave me a special pass para raw makapasok ako agad and I can sit anywhere. I told him na no need but he insisted so yey for a free pass! Arte pa ba ako

I'm with Dani right now and we're waiting for the game to start. The boys are warming up already. We're sitted on the 3rd row sa VIP section kasi I don't want to be too close naman.

"Where's Mom and Dad pala Danyot?"

"Last text nila they were outside na raw. Darating na rin yun anytime ate don't worry…"

I just nodded and opened my phone. I have a text message from Thirdy pala

From: Thirdy

Thank you for coming into my life... este to watch my game pala. Cheer for me, okay? I love you!

PS: You're so pretty today. Well everyday naman but today you're much prettier now ;)

Even though the whole message is corny, I can't help but smile. Hay Thirdy

"Wow naman sa smile ate. Wag mong ipahalata na kinikilig ka" Dani teased. I looked at her and she laughed lang

"I'm not kinikilig no. It's corny kasi. Well, typical Thirdy so…" Dani is not convinced but I just laughed it off na lang. I looked the court and sakto, Thirdy looked din sa direction namin. He bumped his chest then tinuro ako tapos he winked after. Narinig ko na nagtilian yung mga tao, and that includes yung katabi ko

"OMG ate ang scandalous ni Kuya when it comes to you…" she grinned. I just shook my head. Thirdy talaga

"Girl did you see that? Thirdy winked at me…"

Kumunot yung noo ni Dani nung narinig niya yun. We turned around and we saw a smirking Julia in the 4th row

"Oh hi girls. Didn't notice that you were there…"

"Oh I bet you did…" Dani said. I held her wrist so that she can calm down

"I can see that your kuya still likes me…" Julia confidently said. Wow naman. Dani stood up and smiled at Julia

"May I correct you, Miss Julia. Yes, he "liked" you. But you know what I learned over the past few years? That "liking" someone is so vague. No wonder he fell out of "like" sa'yo kasi kuya doesn't want people who are assumera and so full of herself..." oh my gosh Dani snapped. She's so gigil right now and lahat ng malapit sa'min were so amazed na parang gusto nila pumalakpak. I looked at Julia and she's so furious

"Now you might want to change seats because we don't want someone who might stab our backs…" Dani continued.  Tumayo na si Julia with her friends and they walked out. Umupo na ulit si Dani sa tabi ko while smiling widely

"My gosh Dani you don't have to do that…" I said

"Believe me ate Bei, it's for the best. Grabe she's been all over kuya since she came back, especially now na they're classmates kaya sobrang naiinis ako…"

"They're classmates?" her eyes grew wider and she covered her mouth

"di pa ba sinasabi sa'yo ni kuya?"

I shook my head and tumingin na sa court. Thirdy is looking at me. He smiled pero nagfade rin nung napansin niya na wala ako sa mood

My mood was off during the entire game. I mean, I know I shouldn't be pissed off naman kasi as if I have control over that. Kaso, he should've said it na lang knowing na hindi naman maganda yung unang encounter ko kay Julia
