Fall 21 – Famous
APRIL IMPERIAL
Third Love
Ang pangatlong pag-ibig ang pinakamasakit.
Pero masaya.
Ang panghuli na ata.
Hindi mo daw makakalimutan ang una pero hindi mo rin makakalimutan ang huli.
Dito mo na masasabi kung sino ang greatest love mo.
Fierce love.
Matinding pag-ibig na hindi mo makakalimutan sa buong buhay mo.
I graduated senior high just like that.
I haven't seen him for many months.
I've already started my college days.
Sabi nila, sa college daw ang pinakastressful pero swak kapag nakatapos ka na.
It's rewarding feeling if you finished it.
Masaya kaso reality check na kasi job hunting na after.
Hindi pa nagsisimula ang first day of school ng second year.
So, this summer my family decided na magswimming kami.
We went to Siargao to swim.
Kasama ko si Drei, wala si Kuya Harden kasi busy sa summer assignments niya since first year college na rin siya.
Patapos na siya ng first year last sem.
Ngayon lang yung summer time niya to relax.
Pero wala atang relaxing sa college.
I went to the sea.
Nakarash guard ako at dala-dala ko ang phone ko sa waterproof case.
Tapos pagswim ko, nauntog ako sa kung anong bato.
Yun pala may tao sa baba ng dagat.
"What are you doing?"
Nakahawak siya sa ulo niya, nilabas niya ang half body niya.
Nakatopless siyang naghawi ng buhok.
His hands went through his hair.
"Are you okay? Are you drunk? Bumping to me."
Natatawang sabi niya sa'kin.
Ngayon lang ako nakakita ng ganitong kagorgeous na lalaki.
He's smiling ear to ear in front of me.
Me hoping to meet him again.
"Can you take a picture of me?"
I asked him, wala kasi akong kasama at the moment.
Wala ang photographer Kuya ko, si Drei naman hindi marunong kumuha ng picture.
"Give me your phone."
I gave him, my phone.
Me and pictures.
Hindi na nawala sa tradition ko.
He took at picture of me.
"Pose for me."
He laughed, I laughed.
Binigay niya agad yung phone ko.
Kaso nakapikit ko sa picture.
"Can you take a picture of me again?"
"I have a talent fee. You are sure lucky. I'm not letting you pay."
Nagbibiro ba siya?
"Kahit isa pang picture."
Sabi ko sa kanya.
Giving my phone again.
"What do you mean? Can you speak in English?"
Hala, englishero pala 'to.
Hindi marunong magtagalog.
"One more picture, please."
He took my picture and went out of my sight.
Sana pati number din ibigay mo na rin.
He didn't bother to told me his name.
"What's your name?"
Before he could go.
"Jake Urgelles."
Simple as that, he went out of my face.
I went into Arthur International School.
Hinanap ko si Tristan pero wala.
Alam ko kasing mataas na masyado ang tuition rito.
I don't know what happen to him after senior high.
I saw the dean lister's list for second year.
Nasa taas na naman ang pinag-uusapan na lalaki sa school, Jake Urgelles.
He's the best among the rest.
Tawag nila sa kanya ay Prodigy ng Computer Science and Engineer Society.
I want to meet someone like him at school kaso mas ahead sa'kin ang batch niya.
Hindi ko siya mahagilap pero inspiration ko siya sa'kin.
Hinanap ko siya sa social media. I saw his Instagram, ten thousand followers.
Ang ganda ng feed niya.
Model kaya siya!
He got a God related caption on his bio, God is my power.
Hinanap ko yung twitter niya.
Swerte ko kasi nakalagay sa link ng Instagram niya.
Jakeurgelles ang kanyang username sa Instagram.
He didn't reply on his Instagram.
I found his twitter account. Jaketheknight.
It's private.
I can't see his tweets.
Nalaman ko rin na siya ay isang gamer.
He's playing mobile legends.
He's really famous in it.
Marami siyang subcribers.
He got 400 person watching his live.
Aprildapretty: Hi po, idol po kita!
Natabunan nama ng mga walang hiyang mahaharot na comments.
Unang pasok sa school ay may humila sa'kin sa isang gilid.
"Shhh! Hide me! Do not talk."
Sabi ng isang pamilyar na lalaki, isn't this Jake Urgelles in the flesh?
May mga dumaan ng sambayanan na kababaihan.
"I do not want to be their model. I'm busy. So, I'm hiding here. Thanks."
He smirked.
Tinanggal niya ang kamay sa bibig ko.
This person is someone I look up.
He's finally here with me.
"You are the prodigy?"
I asked him.
"Who told you that? They must be joking. That's what they call me? I'm not"
He walked away from me.
Hindi ko talaga alam kung paano ulit siya makikita.
"Can we be friends?"
I told him before we go.
"I do not befriend girls."
Sabi niya sa'kin.
That night, I watched his live in Youtube about mobile legends.
He's playing games again.
Aprildapretty: Hi po! Crush po kita.
He smiled at his live and greeted me back,
"Hello, April. Kumusta?"
