[Danskie Montpellier]
AROUND two o'clock in the afternoon.
Just received a message from Thoralid.
Pinapalayas na niya ako sa unit namin.
K. Fine. I'm out of his shits, from now on.
"hindi ka kawalan"
I remember his voice saying those words.
Our quarrel didn't stop. It will never stop.
Walang magpapatalo sa'min, we know na parehas naming gustong malamangan ang isa.
In the first place, i can live without him.
I can live without him backing up on my side.
I can live without his "protection".
His making himself suffer in limbo.
I'll put you down Thoralid.
Mark. My. Words.
WHILE the teacher is discussing his lesson, i'm in deep thoughts.
Hindi ko napapansin na nangingilid na ang aking mga luha.
I can't afford to loose the group.
After the teacher ajourned the class, i immediately went out the classroom.
While walking away, my tears are flowing like river.
It sucks. Crying are just for weak people.
I ran, fast. Then stopped when i reached the roof top.
Kahit alam kong walang taong makakakita ng pag-iyak ko, still, i covered my face.
I tried to stop my tears from falling down my eyes. I can't stop them.
Hindi ako tumitigil sa pag-iyak. Hanggang sa pati sipon ay sumasabay na rin.
Warm, warm hug. I felt a hand wraping my body.
He's caressing my flat back.
Lalaki siya. Yes, ang tapang ng amoy ng kaniyang pabango, halatang boy siya.
His smell is familiar. Nasinghot na ng ilong ko noon.
A flashback came to my mind. The announcement of Dreck's turning to a Made Man.
Siya na'to. I'm so so so sure.
Sinubukan ko siyang itulak para makita ang mukha niya, pero lalo niyang hinigpitan ang pagyakap sa'kin.
'lady...'
He wipped my tears with his handkerchief.
From a fuzzy look, my sight started slowly to see clearly.
A worried face looks down at me. Checking my eyes.
"JC.."
I hugged him and cried again.
"Shhh.. Shh.. Shh, everything will be alright"
He held my neck with his right hand. Wiping my tears.
"Y-you—"
Nilagay niya ang kaniyang index finger sa'king labi.
He removed his index and started caressing my lips with his thumb.
Hindi na ako umiiyak.
"Why are you crying?"
He asked. Caressing my cheek.
I shaked my head.
"Why are you hear? You should be on class now"
My forehead frowned. Naiirita ako, kasi may nakakakitang umiiyak ako.
"I noticed you a while ago. Then followed you here"
Inayos niya ang buhok ko.
Niyakap ko siya. Sobrang higpit.
Nakapatong ang aking baba sa kaniyang kaliwang balikat.
Hinimas niya ang aking buhok.
He led me to sit at the edge of the building.
Where no building can be seen. Sa baba niyon ay kagubatan.
He's playing my hair.
Nakaupo ako sa railing habang siya ay nakasandal rito.
Nakatingin lang ako sa mga ulap.
"JC, may i ask you something?"
I'm still looking at the sky.
"Hmn?"
"What's your connection with Dad?"
I looked at him. His still playing my hair.
"I was just invited at that event. Probably, your Dad knew me"
He held my hand. Playing my fingers.
"I love your kiss"
He smiled sweetly. Napangiti ako.
"I love it too"
"Can we do it again?"
We stared at each other's eyes. His left hand touched my face.
Caressing my cheek.
Bumaba ako sa ground. Hinarap siya.
Isinandal niya ako sa barrier, supporting his right hand on my back.
My hands met at his nape.
Nagpatagilid ang kaniyang ulo. Touching each other's lips.
We are kissing passionately when a stupid dumb bullshit iPhone opening ringtone was heard around.
Kumalas kami sa labi ng isa't isa.
Both of us, were frisking for our pockets.
Mine was not vibrating—nor sounding.
It is his phone which is ringing.
Nang makita niya ang pangalang nagflash sa kaniyang screen, he picked it up immediately.
He made few steps away from me.
Pasulyap-sulyap siya sa'kin habang nakikipag-usap sa kaniyang cellphone.
He went back after a minute or two.
We looked at each other's eyes. No one's talking.
He gently held my head, gently stroking my hair.
"I'm sorry Danskie, i have to go. I'll see you tomorrow"
He said na parang iniuutos sa'kin that he MUST see me tomorrow.
He swiftly kissed my forehead then ran away from the rooftop.
"Take care"
I said as i watch him ran away.
Tila ako'y natulala. Can't move. Stroke ba 'to?
My brain can't absorb that him, JC, Jc,, JC is that man in the event.
Joke lang ba ito?
