KISSING MY KRYPTONITE

"Meziah? Where art thou?"

"Matias, not today," mahinang sagot ko. Hindi ko alam kung pang-ilang missed calls niya na 'to. I'm in a middle of my peaceful sleep, nagising ako dahil sa tunog ng phone ko.

"C'mon dude, it's our exam day! Wala ka na bang balak isalba alanganin mong grades?! Iisang subject na lang itatawid mo, I thought you wanna do this?"

Ilang linggo na nga pala since our prelims, ang bilis ng oras dahil midterms na. That goes to say na wala na talaga akong chance humabol pa.

"I have decided to drop that subject, I'm so tired-"

"Our professor already dropped your class card before you even say it!"

Bahagya kong nilayo phone ko at napakunot saglit. Madamot magbigay grades at maraming kaputanginahan professor naming sa philosophy of man pero as far as I know hindi 'yon nagda-drop unless his students will do it.

"Then, that's good to hear," walang gana kong sagot. I grabbed my comfortor that smells so sweet to cover my face dahil gusto ko pa matulog ulit. I can hear the three of them na nag-agawan pa sa cellphone.

"Meziah you're a hopeless case kung ganyan ka lagi, maawa ka naman sa sarili mo! I asked ate Trina kanina, pwede mo pa daw i-withdraw classcard mo from the SAO and go on with your exam!"

Just when Yesha mentioned Trina's name, medyo nabuhayan ako ng kaunti.

"Where is she? Kasama niyo?" I inquired tonelessly habang inililibot ang mata sa buong kwarto, great I'm not in my room. Saka ko naalala buong pangyayari kagabi at kung bakit ako nasa unfamiliar condo unit na 'to.

I frown when Yesha explained, tinanong lang daw niya randomly si Trina nang makasalubong niya. I thought she cares somehow.

I still can't get over her truth slap the last time we saw each other. Malapit na mag-November, I'm planning to take her with me to VPMP, our private memorial park. We used to spend a night there before with my cousins, for thrills. Para kaming nasa eerie camping site with the dead people.

"Don't start," I silently groaned when the new woman I am with this time clung her arms on my neck. Before she starts peppering me with her kisses, mabilis ko na siyang nailayo sa 'kin.

"What?!" medyo may galit niyang bulalas.

"I have an exam, Daliah-"

"Daisey," she corrected and glared at me. I don't remember her name, but I recall meeting her at Míx it Up's rooftop party last night. Hindi ko pinagdadamot lips ko kagabi kaya nang kabigin at halikan niya ako ay nagtuloy-tuloy na hanggang dito sa unit niya.

"Daisey, my favorite flower," I chuckled and bent down my head to give her a peck on her cheek pero hindi niya na ako binitawan.

I let her lips connect with mine for a quick kiss at bago pa niya tuluyang hubarin lahat ng damit niya't itapon ang sarili sa 'kin ay nakalayo na 'ko. I had enough of her last night and as much as I want another round I badly need to leave her life bago siya hindi maka-move on sa 'kin.

"Hey, tell me your name before you leave!"

"Snowbear!" I shouted before rushing to the elevator. Kailangan ko munang umuwi para maligo and all.

Daliah, I mean Diana whatever is her name cooked for me pero baka hindi na ako makauwi kapag pinatulan ko pa-breakfast niya, she seemed so attracted to me and I can't blame her for that.

I'm on my way to the Student Affairs Office to take back my Philo (Philosophy of Man) class card when I saw Trina, baka katatapos lang ng klase or exam niya.
