Club Day.
'Yan ang tawag sa event ngayon sa school.Which means, every students should focus on their club, the whole day.But since i'm a transferee, i still don't have a club.And now, i don't know why i let myself get dragged by Hailey, papunta sa Theater Club.
"Don't worry Rei!My club mates are nice kaya" She told me.
"Well, that's not the point Hailey..I'm not suitable on Theater Club " I said in the most not harshly tone.
She pouted. " But let's just try! "
When we got arrived at the Theater Club, her club mates immediately greet the both of us.
"Hello! I am, Amy Crossed.. the president of the Theater Club.And you must be Rei Gonzales, right?"
Agad na tumango ako at nahihiyang ngumiti.
Actually, madami sila sa club.Hindi na naman nila kailangan ng tulad ko, 'di ba?
Amy told me what does the Theater Club do and it's agenda.She told me a lot of things about the Club.She asked me if i want to try acting and stuffs but i shyly refused.Theater, is not realy for me.But, yeah, i tried auditioning but they also told me na, it's not suitable for me because i look so awkward and shy.They told me those things in a sweet way, maybe to not hurt me?Hindi naman ako nasaktan kasi tanggap ko na naman na hindi ako for Theater haha!
"Ah! You know what? I'm gonna call West" Hailey told me while typing something on her phone.
"H-huh?Bakit?"
"West!….Rei's with me..yeah!…okay"
Humarap siya sa akin. " Don't worry! I told him not to flirt with you" She laughed.
Bahagyang kumunot ang noo ko. " I don't get it"
"Beside being a member of the student council, West is also a member of the dancing club..and sabi ko sa kaniya na naghahanap ka ng club na suitable for you"
"Dancing Club!?" My eyes widened.
"I'm not good in dancing,Hailey" Parang gusto ko yatang umiyak.Masyado nang nakakahiya ang mnga nangyayari sa akin huhu.
"Try mo nga sabi" Pinanlakihan pa niya ako ng mata kaya mas lalo kong gustong umiyak sa hiya.
Namg dumating si West sa harap namin ay pawis na pawis ito at nakasando lang.Sige, hot na siya—pero! Malandi pa din siya.
"Ikaw na bahala kay Rei…" Sinamaan ng tingin ni Hailey si West bago siya bumalik sa Theater Club.
"Babe, im right here for you" Kinindatan pa ako ng loko.
I immediately frowns and distanced myself from him.
"Why—"
"You're sweaty"
Tumawa ito ng mahina at nagpunas ng pawis.Hindi naman talaga ganun ka-pawis pero err, ayokong tumabi sa maharot na katulad niya.
Nang makarating kami sa Dancing Club ay naabutan ko ang mga ka-club niya na parang nag pa-practice ng sayaw.
"Sup Guys!May bago tayong ka—"
Agad na siniko ko si West dahil baka akalain ng mga ka-club niya na magiging member na talaga ako ng club nila.NO WAY!
Tumigil sila sa pag-sasayaw at lumapit sa amin.
"Hello! I'm Jake Paul… the president of the Dancing Club" Jake offered a handshake which i shyly accepted.
"Hello..I'm Rei Gonzales" I smiled.
"Darn!You're pretty" One of the guys told me.
Omg.Nahihiya ako! I'm not used to be complimented by a guy!
"Ang harot ah" Sabi naman nung isang girl sa kanila.
Same lang din sa ginawa nina Amy sa akin.Jake told me a lot of things about Dance Club.The practice,schedules, events, contests and many more stuffs.And as usual, i auditioned too, which is really embarrassing!Parang gusto ko nalang magpakain sa lupa!Kasi naman, pinag-sayaw nila ako sa harap nilang lahat! Jake told me that i was actually good at dancing, i just need to practice it even more and build my confidence.Pero i told him na, dancing isn't my thing..in a most not harsh way of course..
While we were walking towards the cafeteria, Kean saw us. He immediately grabbed my arms and pulled away from West which made me frowned.I'm not in a good mood today, i got embarrassed for 2 times already huhu.
And now, i don't know why i let myself get dragged AGAIN, by Kean.And papunta kami ngayon sa club niya, ang Cooking Club.
I'm actually surprised na kasali siya sa club na 'yon.
Geez i just remembered the Tinola that he cooked.
"Welcome Rei! I'm Mina Romero, the president of the Cooking Club" She smiled at me so i did the same thing.
Mina told me a lot of things about Cooking Club.Napansin ko na kakaunti lang ang members ng club na ito.And sinabi nga niya sa akin na marami daw talaga ang members ng club na ito dati, but since dumami na ang mga clubs ay umaalis sila.And ngayon ay 6 na lang ang members ng Cooking Club.
" I was surprised that you joined here" I whispered to Kean.
He pouted. " What do you mean Rei? I'm good at cooking kaya"
Napangiwi naman ako. " As you say so"
"Halika" Lumapit sa akin si Kean at inakbayan ako. I tried to get his arms off my shoulder pero nilalagay niya pa rin.Hays.
"Where are we going? " I asked.
Hindi siya sumagot hanggang sa makarating na kami sa club na sinasabi niya.
"Gaming Club? " Basa ko sa pangalan ng Club.
"Yup!Look oh" Aniya at may tinuro sa mag binatana.Kaya napasilip ako.And inside there. j saw a lot of guys, infront of the computers wearing headphones.Pero napako ang paningin ko sa isang lalaki.
It's Yuan!
"Why is he—"
"As soon na nalaman niyang magkakaroon ng gaming club, agad siyang nagpalista" Mahinang tumawa si Kean.
"Alam ko namang wala kang interes sa gaming, pero i just want to show you haha" Paliwanag ni Kean habang kinakamot ang batok niya.
Napangiti naman ako at tumango.
"So?Have you decided what—"
"What are you guys doing?"
Napalingon ako sa may pinto ng Gaming Club nang marinig ko ang boses ni Yuan.
"Ey bro!" Bati ni Kean sa kaibigan.Pansin kong iba-iba ang tawag niya ah?
Yuan just looked at him,boredly.
"Ito naman!Nililubot ko lang si Rei, naghahanap kasi siya ng club"
Yuan looked at me.
Parang nawalan ako ng hininga ng ilang segundo bago ngumiti ng kaunti."Y-y-yeah"
Omg bakit ako nauutal!?
"Nakapag-decide ka na ba?" He asked.
"Uhm..wala pa"
"Ah" Mahinang sagot niya at muling pumasok sa loob.
Huh?What—
"Bahaha!Pabayaan mo na 'yun.Naalog na ata n'un sa kalalaro" Tumatawang sabi sa akin ni Kean.
"Tara na?" Aniya at naglakad palayo.Sumunod din naman agad ako sa kaniya.
Nang makabalik kami sa Cooking Club ay sinabi ko sa kanila na sa ditong club ako, mag-jo-join.Natuwa sila sa naging desisyon ko.
"So?Meron na pala akong kalaban sa pagluluto? "Ngumisi sa akin si Kean pero inirapan ko lang siya.
Pinagsasabi neto?
Tumawa ito sa naging reaksiyon ko at ginulo ang aking buhok.
"Welcome to the Cooking Club,Rei"
