Para akong nakalutang habang pabalik sa classroom. I don't know why I felt giddy by the fact that I made Apollo smile, but I did not linger on the reason why and just live on the moment.

'Saka ko na iisipin 'yon. It's not like the reason is important anyway. It is just probably my girl ego talking. Nagyayabang dahil napakain. It's nothing serious.

"Hi Rielle," a spectacled man, the same year level as mine, pulled me out from my thoughts.

Nalaman ko agad na magkapareho lang kami ng grade basi sa kulay ng ID lace na suot niya.

I studied his appearance. Messy jet black hair, thick eyebrows, high cheekbones, pointy nose, strong jawline and dreamy chocolate eyes under his gold rimmed eye glasses.

He's handsome but I like older guys. Isa pa, may target na ako ngayon kaya ayaw ko ng isa pa. I may be boy hungry but I am not that boy hungry.

"Yes?"

Still, I smiled at him and act polite. There's nothing wrong in doing that.

"I heard that you are interested in editing, maybe you can be part of our crew," he said politely with a toothy smile.

Medyo nahiya ako sa naisip ko kanina na kaya niya ako hinarangan ay dahil may gusto siya sa'kin. Inaamin ko medyo makapal ang mukha ko banda do'n.

I smiled wryly at him and regain my composure.

Okay lang 'yan Rielle, hindi naman niya alam. Hindi ka naman napahiya sa kanya, sa sarili mo lang. Okay lang 'yan, okay lang talaga.

"Oh, right. Here."

Inabot niya sa akin ang isang flyer. Binasa ko ang nakasulat at napangiti ako agad sa nabasa. Nawala na sa isip ko na napahiya ako sa sarili ko kanina.

The flyer is about an editing  and photography club. Kapartner nila ang theatre and drama club. Sila ang nag-eedit ng mga films at pictures para sa advertisement ng films at theater plays. I remember last year that the film of theatre and drama club won the best editing.

Napanood ko ang film at hindi na nakakapagtaka kung bakit nanalo ng best editing award ang film.

Aside sa storyline which is already awesome, the editing is a whole new level. From the effects to transition as well as the music, it all fit into place, the reason why the film became more wonderful.

Ezra is part of theatre and drama club. She is the playwright of theatre club and one of the directors in drama club.

But for me, Ezra is more fitted to be one of the actors, but knowing her, she prefers to be the one behind the stage instead of the one in front.

Unlike other schools na magkaiba ang drama club sa theatre club, sa school namin ay ginawang iisa na lang kaya mas marami ang crews.

"Isn't it too late to recruit members? Malapit na ang school festival, ah," I asked.

It's not that I don't want to join, I'm just curious.

Sa totoo lang, gusto ko sanang sumali sa club nila pero napuno na. Hindi naman kasi unlimited ang slots ng club kaya pahirapan din makasali. That is why I'm curious why they are recruiting in the middle of the school year.

Kadalasan kasi tuwing first month after ng pasukan ang recruitment ng bawat club.

Mas strikto ang editing and photography club dahil kasali sila sa mga gumagawa ng events para sa school festival, mainly dahil partner nila ang theatre and drama club na pinakamain entertainment ng festival, together with music club.
