WITH my shoulders down, my feet brought me at the school park. I sat at the cleanest and shaddy bench.
It's been time since the last my foot stepped here. Kapapasok ko pa lang ng Quando Rondo nang huli akong makatapak ako rito.
My arms leveled my shoulder. There are no students here since it's still class hours.
Hmn.. Asan na kaya iyon si JC? Bumalik kaya ng classroom iyon? Oo naman. Mabait siyang bata.
I'm alone again. Here comes the saddest part of being alone. Thoughts are going to flood my mind.
Natutulog kaya ang isda?
Paano din naman kaya ang paningin ng manok?
Apat ba mata at tainga ni Peppa Pig?
Paano ba lunurin ang isda?
Di umano nahulog ang ilog sa bata.
Tinupok ng apoy ang fire station.
Nagsabunutan ng dalawang kalbo. Dalawang guto sugatan.
Sino pa-send? Tumalon ang building sa tao.
7.6 na billion katao sa mundo. Sino kaya nagbilang sa inyo?

"Danskie!"
Someone stupid screamed my name.
I peeped at my left side then scanned that ugly face. Thoralid.
"I've been calling you ten times but there you are, diving in deep thoughts"
Ten times? Is that exaggerated?
"What are you thinking about?"
His eyes were glazing. His eyes were really beautiful.
"Your sister is stupid. She really was"
I looked straight away. Bahala na siya kung sasabihin niya iyon sa sissy niya.
"What happened a while ago? I can't still believe na pinatumba mo ang isang Bryle Harley. Lingid sa kaalaman kong nagpapa-coma ka na pala ng mga lalaki"
Nararamdaman niya sigurong delikado na siya. He peeked up the sky.
"It's not me who did that. I don't even had an idea on what really happened to him. You know that i can't move his head kahit pa sobrang lakas na ng sapak ko"
I pulled one leaf from the flower near me and throwed away.
He darted a perplexed gawp at me while i behold the sky.
"Do you mean, that Dela Cruz made it? Ooh. Damn that transferee"
He leaned back, shooking his head. Unbelieving what i said.
"I'm certainly sure that when Bryle gains his consciousness, he's going to search and kill that man"
He continued.
"He can't kill that man"
Probably, hindi pala nila alam na may posibilidad na may kapit siya sa puwersa ni Dad.
I had no idea kasi on how wide the empire was. Never pang sinabi sa akin ni Dad, he'll never, knowing that i'm just a girl.
Parehas kaming tahimik. No one's talking. Hindi ko pa siya napapatawad in the first place.
Even if he says the word sorry.
"Not even mentioning, you're dumb sister prohibited us three to be miles away at each other"
I looked at him as he slowly nod his head.
Gusto ko sanang sabihin na hindi ko kaya ang ipinataw niyang parusa kasi ayokong matuon ang attensyon nila kay JC.
Napansin ko na lang that his lips widened.
"I get it"
He said out of my vocabulary.
"What is that 'i get it' words?"
My eyebrows furrowing.
"Girls are really eash to read"
Ha said teasing me. His both hands were places on his right leg which was over the other.
"Can you share what's on your mind? You're like daft there smiling alone"
I want to know what is that badly. Kakantiyawan lang kasi niya ako kapag hindi niya sasabihin sa'kin iyon sa lalong madaling panahon.
"Hmn?"
He raised his chin putting his left index finger on his cheek. Wait- what just he did? Whose kidshit right now?
"I will tell you what it is in one condition"
I rolled my eyes. Eto nanaman siya.
"Oh? What is it?"
"Bati na tayo"
"Tangina muh nag-isip ka pa."
Bati lang naman diba? Walang balikan ng aliyansa.
"Deal"
I smiled and shook hands with him. Ang lawak ng ngiti niya. Kahit na ganun ay hindi pa din nag hihiwalay ang ilong niya.
"Now tell that 'i get it' thing to me"
I raised the index and middle finger of both hands in the i-get-it part.
I looked at him, waiting for his
Every word to tell me.
"You're mad at Chloerid right? Then she punished all the three of you not to talk with each other. Galit ka, because tutol na tutol ka sa ginawa niya. Hindi mo kasi kayang hindi makausap si JC, tama?"
I looked away. Rolling my eyes. Isa talaga siyang Ludfoe.
Hindi na sana ako nakipagbati sa kaniya kung ganoon lang ang dahilan ng i-get-it niya.

THORIE... what a fittingly fit nickname for a pooch.
Dahil bati na kami, i gave that nickname of his for me na maalalang bati na nga talaga kami.
I allowed myself to talk to his league too, especially the two-Jayzam and Merch.
Sa wakas, i found my way to scape that newly-raised issue.
I could read on the student's lips what are they chattering around.
Their good at it at the first place.
Titigil lang sila sa pagshishit talking when i'm already walking their way.
Oh diba? Obvious ba? Auto-zip iyong labi nila na parang zipper.
Walking through the aisle, i arrived Thoralid's headquarters here in school.
Yes he had one. Ikaw ba naman ang magkaroon ng kapatid na Principal? Gusto ko tuloy kumbinsihin si Dreck to- urgh. Nevermind. Walang alam sa pagtuturo iyon.
Kinuha ko ang libro kong nakapatong doon-oh, buti they didn't bother taking it away. I know this men hate books. Wala kasing utak para umintindi.
I flipped the pages, until saw where my bookmark was.
"It's good that you're back" i was disturbed on my reading when Jayzam came.
At andito talaga siya kahit 6 30 na ng evening. The news really traveled so fast. Ganiyan sila ka-chismosa't chismoso. Observed?
"Supposed Thorie told you that" i uttered.
The book landed on the table. He sat at the seat opposite me. His lips were smiling widely.
Girls find that cute, but that was a real abnormal smile for me- a genius one.
"Thoralid," he paused to think before continuing, "or Thorie told us nothing. Hmn, what's with the nickname?"
"Admit it. It's cute"
"Whoa... since when did you appreciate cute from ordinary?"
"Since... forget it. Your an idiot"
I can't think of an appropriate answer for that. So i said he's an idiot.
Wait, back to the supposed-thorie-told-you-about-that statement, the news really traveled fast.
Kahit kailan talaga nababali ang aking sinasabi.
My forehead frowned when i remembered that. I throwed him a very beautiful question.
"If not from him, kanina naman?"
"You know we have eyes and ears everywhere" said he.
Ako lang ba o ako lang talaga ang natatawa sa phrase na iyon? Come to think of it literally. HAHAHA. Nevermind. Paranoid ako minsan. Minsan lang ah.
"Oh. I remembered something" he uttered like something's holding him back.
"What is it?"
"Do you know who this John Carlo Dela Cruz was?"
Natigilan ako.
I slowly nod my head looking at his eyes. Why'd he asked?
Sasaktan niyo ba siya?
Urgh, naalala ko nanaman ang punishment.
"Are you hunting him for Bryle? You can't do that! He saved-"
I cut my words. I shouldn't talk too much.
"Hmn, we'll think of that suggestion" he said with certainty.
Now he's examining my face.
"Looks like you're getting more beautiful every day since first day," he waited for me to talk. I didn't bother to talk. I know i'm beautiful anyway.
"Do you bother if i walk you home? You know i really missed you so much" he continued.
I replied my confirmation with a smile.
Napansin ko ang pupils ng kaniyang mata. His pupils are getting lighter.
Seldom i see that color on his eyes. Maganda talaga ang mata niya.
Sumabay na'ko sa kaniya to prove tgat everything in the league is going smooth. Kahit dumaplis ako, still they're doing well.
Kaya naman pala nila ang wala ako eh. So i better quit.
The evening's already dark when we arrived at my unit.

[John Carlo Dela Cruz]
BRISK is coming rapidly with a confronting look. From there, i knew already what's his bussiness.
"Yes cousin?"
Me looking at him calmly. May sasabihin pa sana ako but he answered exactly what i hoped to ask.
"I know that you know what's my aim here"
He folded his arms as he landed infront of me.
"I have no ide-"
He cut in. Galit ang aura.
"I told you stay away from that bitch nor to get close to her!"
Why is he bursting?
"Can you low down your voice? People may misunderstand your gestures and have a bad impression of the Dela Cruz family"
I need to shesh him or else a volcano will interrupt.
"See what's the effect of getting close to her! Nadadamay ka sa kademonyohan ng babaing iyon!"
He's waiting for people to pass before continuing what he is saying.
"Why? Hindi naman lingid sa kaalaman mo ang ugali ko. No need for you to worry like that for me. Thanks anyway"
I rolled my eyes and get my phone.
"Yes. I know what kind of attitude you have. But please, kahit sa school ayusin mo naman ang dignidad mo"
"Why do you act like that? I can handle myself. As i said-"
"Kahit ang walang kaalam-alam na si Bryle?"
Natigilan ako. Masama bang ipagtanggol ang isang babae?
"I just taught him a lesson"
I looked back to my phone.
"No you did not. You just unlocked a war my, dear cousin. Hindi mo din kilala ang isang iyon"
Kina-career niya talaga ang panenermon sa'kin. Hindi ikaw ang nanay ko Brisk. Pinsan kita.
"I don't care kung sino pa iyang lamok na iyan. Once na mangagat siya, hinding hindi ko papalampasin ang hampasin siya"
He sighed. Sa wakas he gave up.
"ok. Ok. You win. Basta, wala na akong paki sa'yo"
Irap niya at tumalikod paalis sa'kin.
Natawa na lang ako sa inasal niya.
