While, going down the staircase of the h.s. building. Muntikan pa akong madulas pababa. Buti na lang nasa harapan ko si Alfred.
Di ko naman siya nabangga ng tuluyan pero napakapit ako bigla nang matigas sa kanyang balikat.
I heard him groan and side glanced at me annoyingly.
By that time, he stopped walking too.
Binaba niya yung bag ko and humarap siya sa akin.
"Huwag ka ngang stupid habang pababa ng hagdan." Napataas ang aking kilay sa sinabi niya. Grabe, stupid agad?
I held onto his shoulders and he was holding my waist.
Bago pa ako madala sa moment na yun, maayos na akong bumitaw at bumaba ng isang step from the stairs. We're in the second level na.
My classroom was at the third floor.
Alfred and Ryn Do are classmates. Ako lang yung naiba ng section. The reason is that I was delayed in paying the enrollment fees.
Pero ayos na rin. Ayoko naman na maging kaklase itong dalawang ito. I prefer being a wallflower of the classroom.
Meanwhile, I didn't notice at first na nagvivideo pala si Ryn Do!!!
Kinuha ko ang phone niya and she protested,
"Hey, give it back Quelly!"
I smirked and immediately erased what she filmed and took a photo of. I returned it to her and said, "Ayoko ng issue Ryn Do."
While she was glaring, I quickly grabbed my other bag on the floor. Tumayo lang si Alfred.
Tulala yata. Tsk! Sinabi ko na noong una na ayoko sa kanya. As more than friends that is.
Hmp!
I am swiftly regaining my consciousness, until he spoke, "Quelly, you forgot about something."
I internally sighed and stopped going down the stairs to the first level.
I looked at him, like I was inquiring what I'm supposed to remember.
"I saved you from falling?" Oh that!
"I thank you for saving me from falling face first." Bababa na ulit ako nang hilahin niya ako.
Buti na lang talaga yung isang bag ko sa left shoulder ko ang tumama sa dibdib niya.
And guess what? He groaned again.
Gusto ko tumawa pero huwag na lang.
"Haven't you fallen for me yet?"
I looked at his eyes so sincere.
"I don't want." I shrugged off his hold on my arm.
For the second time I love how Ryn Do can't miss this precious moments.
"Wow, pwede na talaga kayo maging stars sa isang drama." I noticed Alfred looking at Ryn Do too.
It was my cue, to finally leave that place.
But, lo and behold, Mr. Beet stopped me.
'Oh for crying out loud, gusto ko na umupo sa bleachers and wait for my car service!'
Paiyak na sana ako nang makita ang serious look na nakamasid sa akin.
"Tapusin na natin ito, Quelly, be my official girlfriend, will you?"
Tumili si Ryn Do and kept on filming us.
I am at this moment really at the brink of slapping his face hard.
Pero bumuntong-hininga muli ako pero tinotoo ko na.
"Fine then, I am now your official girlfriend these week." And with that kumaripas na ako ng pagbaba para makapunta na ako ng bleachers.
Di ko nga lang akalain na sumunod sila Alfred at Ryn Do.
Umupo na ako sa lowest stair ng bleachers.
"But, it's Friday, mademoiselle?!"
Ano ngayon kung Friday?
As if reading my thoughts. He sighed and bit his lips inwards. Wow! That was kinda sexy.
Napanganga ako ng literal at nang marealize ko, sinarado ko agad. I listened to what he was about to say.
"Stop tricking and annoying me!!! I really want to date you, so will you please?"
Aba! Desperate?
"Okay, pero next week na tayo mag-date and I have one rule during our relationship,"
I paused for effect. Napangiti ako.
"Don't flirt with me here at school."
Right on time dumating na yung car service ko. Thank you Lord Jesus!
Iniwan ko sila nang di nagpapaalam.
Alfred Beet's reaction was like he lost a game. And Ryn Do's reaction was overly happy.
