CHAPTER FOUR

De Grande University

"TREV" I yelled in excitement, happiness evident all over my face.

Before he could even toss the ball to the outside hitter, his eyes landed on me. His whole face lit up when he saw me.

He quickly ran to me, bailing his teammates.

Pagkalapit niya sa 'kin ay malapad siyang ngumiti. "Hey, I missed you," he said, giving me a quick kiss on my cheek. Contentment warmed me from within as I can finally hug my twin. We haven't seen each other for months because their training started earlier than he expected.

"So, what brings you here?" my twin asked, raising his brow at me.

"Obviously, Gonz brought me here," I replied, glancing at Gonz beside me. Agad na kumunot ang noo ni Trev at tinaasan ng kilay si Gonz.

"Kaya pala kanina ka pa nawawala. Nasa Vera ka na naman pala," Trev commented, shaking his head.

"That, my friend, was because I had a gut feeling that your twin has been crying her eyes out. So, I checked up on her. Turns out I was right," sagot ni Gonz at saka niya ako inakbayan.

"Okay lang ba manood ka muna ng training namin? Tapos solo mo na 'ko pagkatapos," pagbibiro ni Gonz at saka siya humalakhak.

"Really, Gonz? You brought me here to watch you guys play? Are you nuts? You've seen me crying today dahil sobrang miss ko na maglaro!" reklamo ko sa kanya kaya mas lalo siyang tumawa at talagang nakisabay pa sa pagtawa niya 'yong kambal ko. Silang dalawa talaga 'yong pinakanakakaasar na taong kilala ko. Dumagdag pa si Bellamy. Well, buti na lang walang presensya ni Bellamy Creos sa lugar na 'to.

"Pakilala mo naman kami, Trev," singit no'ng isang teammate nila na biglang lumapit sa 'min. Agad na napataas ang kilay ko at tiningnan ko nang masama si Trev. Hindi naman halatang kambal kami kasi hindi naman kami pareho ng mukha. So please, Trev, tell him I'm your girlfriend for God's sake!

"Nasaan si Feem?" I interrupted, ignoring the guy in front of me. Guwapo, pero hindi ko type.

"Change topic, 'no Ra? Kunwari pa," Gonz teased me, laughing his ass out. I smacked him on his shoulder to stop him from teasing me, but because he's Gonz, it's really impossible for him to stop teasing me.

"She's Rara, my twin. Ra, he's Ethan," nakangiting pagpapakilala ni Trev sa 'kin do'n sa kaibigan nila. Inis kong tiningnan si Trev pero muli akong napatingin kay Ethan dahil sa biglaan niyang pag-atras.

"Sorry, Cap," pagpapaumanhin niya sa kambal ko at saka siya napakamot sa ulo. What the hell?

"Seriously? You're scared of him?" I asked, pointing my finger at my twin.

"Of course. He's our captain," Ethan replied, smiling politely.

I shifted my eyes to Gonz. "Can you please tell me what's happening here?" I said, puzzled.

Natawa nang mahina si Gonz. "Strikto na si Trev sa training, Ra. Kahit 'yong mga teammates naming mas matanda sa 'min, takot sa kanya," kuwento ni Gonz kaya agad akong natigilan.

Trev used to be the nicest captain ever. What happened to him? Parang takot na takot talaga sa kanya si Ethan kanina.

"He needed to change, Ra. For the team," a familiar voice behind me interrupted.

Agad akong lumingon sa likuran ko at halos mapatalon ako sa tuwa nang makita ko si Feem na umiinom ng tubig.

"Oh my God! Na-miss kita!" sigaw ko kasabay nang pagyakap ko sa kanya. Pero dahil siya sai Feem, bahagya niya akong tinulak dahil ayaw niyang niyayakap ko siya.
