Be With Him

“W-what?”

Nanlalaki ang mga mata ni Amira pati nung dalawang alipores niya dahil sa sinabi ko

“Bitches!” Maarte kong hinawi papunta sa likudan ko ang buhok ko bago sila inirapan at tumalikod

Tatawa-tawa akong dumiretso sa classroom namen

“Izha, galit ka pa?” Kinalabit ako ni Kino na ngayon ay nakaupo sa likudan ko

“Pákyu!” Sinamaan ko siya ng tingin bago dumukdok sa lamesa ko

Jusko naman! Bakit grabe sila magsalita? kingina may picture lang, nilalandi agad? o’sige picture tayong lahat! wag lang kayo’ng magselos! para kayo’ng jowa na selosa e’

Sana all may jowa!

Dumating ang Prof namin na bakla at nagsimulang dumakdak na naman sa harapan, andaming achuchu bago mag-simula

“Miss Peralta, are you related with Zhackary yung nasa first year?”He got my attention there, I nodded “Ghad! Walang pag-kakaiba! parehas maloko!” He massaged his head

“SO OKAY! LET THE FOUNDATION BEGIN!”

Ngayong Monday talaga ang start ng Foundation bale’ yung Friday opening palang

Mas maganda daw ngayon, lahat ng oras mo pwede mo ibuhos sa iba’t ibang Booths nung Friday kase may mga programs pa, eme nila.

Sabay sabay ulit kaming lumabas

“Ganto mga p’re, bale Si Izha, yung triplets, ako, Si Derek at Si Adam” biglang salita ni Kino habang tinuturo ang papalapit na si Kino

“Punta tayo’ng photo booth, tapos by partner na yung gala naten”They nodded so am I, maganda rin yon, may sari-sarili silang landi “Yung triplets magkakasama yan, Ako tapos si Derek, tapos si Adam at Izha, G?” Mag-po-protesta pa sana ako kaso nga lang um-oo na silang lahat

“Sige na, sige na!” Umakbay sa’ken si Kino at Steve habang naglalakad papuntang Photo booth

We take more than 30 pictures, merong naka fierce kaming lahat, may naka dila, may masama ang tingin sa isa’t isa, meron ding mga naka-bunny ears kaming lahat, masaya talaga basta kasama ang tropa

Pin-rint ang mga pictures namin bago pinost sa bulletin board, nang-hingi din si Kino ng tig-iisang duplicate photo

“Oh kanya kanya na tayo ha!” Sigaw ni Steve bago sila nag-alisan, Naiwan ako kasama ni Adam, hell naa-awkwardan pa din ako.

“Well…. where do you want to go?” He can’t look at my eyes

“Take me there” I raised my left brows at him.

“Take you? W-where?” He’s confused but suddenly his face lighten up “T-tara?”

He offer his hand to me, I raised a brow before placing my hand to his palm.

Inalalayan niya akong sumakay sa Motor niya bago siya patalong sumakay.

“Ah! Slow down!” I hissed and hit his arm dahil sa biglang pagpapabilis niya ng takbo, hindi ako sanay na hindi ako yung nagda-drive “I might fall, Adam!”

“Don’t worry! I’ll catch you!” My face turned red but “Ah… don’t a-assume! I mean literally catch!” I made a face, paasa ka gHoRl?

Nakarating kame sa likod ng sementeryo ng wala pa halos limang minuto dahil sa mabilis na pagpapatakbo ni Adam, malapit lang naman din talaga

Umupo kame sa damuhan at ilang minutong tumulala sa kawalan bago ko napag-desisyunan na basagin ang katahimikan

“So…. I don’t really know you-Well! you don’t know me either! right? So let’s get to know each other, Shall we?”

Hindi siya nag-salita kaya napabuntong hininga ako.

“Sige ako nalang magpapa-kilala” the side of his lips rose up “I am well-Reuze—”

“Reuzekhia Canary S. Peralta” he murmured, nilingon ko siya at masama’ng tinignan, stalker! I was about to speak when he sighed before talking while staring at me.

“You’re Reuzekhia Canary Peralta, dreams to be a Doctor— Ob gyne –, loves to sleep, eat , your hobby is to draw?–Nah! Everything about arts! You loves sunrise and sunset…. what else? Your Mother is Rizha Sarsuela-Peralta and your father is Santi Antonio Peralta Jr., your crazy lil brother Zhackary who always laughed—”

I shut him using my hands, f-ck parang muntik nang mahulog yung panga ko d’on ah!

Creepy–Erase the creepy, gwapo e!

What a handsome stalker!

“Where the f-ck did y-you get that damn information of m-mine?!” I hissed while greeting my teeth “E-eh pwede mo nang masagot bio-data ko nang hindi ako kinu-kunsulta eh!”

He just shrugged and laughed, tangina talaga nito e!

“Unfair hoy! Ikaw ibigay mo info mo sa’ken!”

“Nah, you ask me” ngi-ngiti ngiting sabi niya, wadapak naman oh!

“Adam, ano–” I was shocked when I saw him looking at me with adore and joy in his eyes, he’s staring at me “Ah…. a-anong p-pabango mo?” I asked out of nowhere, naka-limutan ko yung totoong itatanong ko!

“You seriously asking that?” He chuckled

“I forgot what i wanna’ ask e’!” I rolled my eyes but laughed then.

“Lacoste” he answered without leaving my gaze

“For men or for woman?” I joked but he just raised a brow

“Pareho’ng mabango” he smiled

“Why are you smiling?”I curiously asked

“Nothing, I just remembered something”he smiled

“Nag-sasaya ka mag-isa, pa-join naman!” I joked.

” ‘Di mo gugustuhin malaman” he raised a brow and smirked at me, geez! ampogi!

I made a face but we both laugh in the end

“So… let’s do a fast talk?” I suggested

“For what?”Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

“To know each other?” I made a ‘duh’ look

“Okay, you start” ginawa niyang pantukod sa likod ang kanyang dalawang braso

“Alternate tayo, Favorite Color? Maroon” I stared at him

“Black. Favorite Food?” He looked at me

“Adobo! e’ sayo?”

“U-uhm…… Sinigang”

“Okay. Favorite flavor?” I looked at the sky “I love Vanilla, you?”

“Your lips” My eyes widened and look at him

“What the fuck, dude?!” Napa-ayos ako ng upo at masama siya’ng tinignan

“There’s something in your lips, idiot! Look!” He harshly wiped my lips with his thumb

Tangina, paasa na naman
