Kasalukuyan na kaming nasa school ngayon, walang pasok si Bryson sa part time job niya kaya kasabay siya ni Cairo habang ako naman ang nauna pero ang ending nag kita kita pa rin kami. Second subject na namin, hindi ko sila kaklase kaya tahimik at payapa ang buhay ko. I mean almost peaceful, Jianna is here. Her job? Is to disturb my world for all she cares.

"Bakit kaya malungkot si Bryson? Hm? Alam mo ba? Hindi ako mapakali eh! I-kiss ko kaya siya?". Pabulong niyang pangungulit saakin. Inirapan ko siya, I'm busy concentrating. Siya walang ibang ginagawa kung hindi ang tingnan mga litrato ni Bryson, she doesn't have any idea na kasalukuyang naka tira yung isa sa bahay namin.

"Do what you want Jian, nakikinig ako sa nag tuturo. At least one of us has to stay focus dahil parehas tayong magkakaroon ng singko kapag bumagsak tayo, kiss him or even rape him. Do what makes you feel happy". Tugon ko sa kaniya. She chuckled quietly, she's pretty much hopeless. What if, Bryson has someone he likes tapos si Ember pala yon? Bigla ko lang naalala yung sinabi niya saakin kanina.

How can a guy resist Ember Moon? She's a goddess, an intelligent, nice, has a great body figure and most of all? Marunong mag luto. A way to man's heart is through his stomach, I'm sure lahat ng lalaki mahuhulog sa kaniya so it's impossible na hindi siya humalik pabalik. My best friend Ember can play a lot of musical instruments but she liked violin and Piano the most, she's also a good painter.

But everyone has a flaw, hers? She's a party goer, she likes go out a lot during night time. Malakas din ang tolerance niya sa alak, she can even drink some hard liquors pero ginagawa niya lang yon kapag sobrang depress na siya sa mga bagay bagay o sa problema niya. Honestly speaking, I don't see anything wrong about going out at night then partying.

Mindset na siguro ng mga boomers yon, if you're a party goer then you're either a slut or a prostitute. You like to go out at night then it's still the same, hindi ko naman nilalalahat ng matatanda but majority are like that. Why can't they just accept the fact that their generation are different from ours? Hello, it's year 2020! Hindi na 1892 or what. Maria Clara thingy and being mahinhin is no longer a trend.

Natapos nalang ang klase namin pero si Jian, abala pa rin sa pag papantasya niya. Napapailing nalang ako dito habang pinag mamasdan ang kalagayan niyang wala na talagang pag asang mag bago, she'll definitely feel heart broken kapag nalaman niya ang nang yari kay Ember at Bryson.

"Jian, can you stop day dreaming about Bryson for a while? I need to ask something". Aniya ko. Agad niyang inilipat ang atensyon niya saakin, she was smiling and I can't help but think na mukha siyang aso dahil sa way ng pag ngiti niya.

"Itatanong mo ba saakin kung gusto ko si Bryson? I told you, I do! But slight lang, alam ko namang hindi niya ako magugustuhan eh". Diretsahan niyang sagot. I haven't even asked anything yet, I was gonna ask something different but since she brought it herself then I guess duduktungan ko nalang.

"What if nagustuhan niya ang isa sa mga kaibigan mo? Will you be okay with that?". Tanong ko sa kaniya. Medyo nalungkot siya when she heard what I ask, I knew she'd react this way. Kahit naman siguro ako ganito din ang mararamdaman kapag yung gusto ko ay may gustong iba tapos kaibigan ko pa, but if you really love him or her then be happy at least.
