Emuel's POV
"You know, until now he didn't talk to me. Like we are now strangers. Ugh! Kairita."
"Again? Bakit nga kayo nag-away?" I ask because I'm still sleeply.
"Because of that Jellian."
"Wait..wait..wait. Diba yun yung may gusto kay Tan?" I ask like there is a light bulb in my head.
"Yeah. She is." she sound really pissed.
"Oh okay. Now I know. Hindi naman siguro sya manggugulo sa inyo, Xy. Just don't mind her."
"Fine. Thank you for listening to my rant now. Take care and see you soon, phar."
After that she ended the call. We already know that when me or Yana is not around them they become chaotic, given na yun. Xyra can't really handle Tan's attitude. Kaya nga marami pa ring nagtataka kung paano sila naging magbestfriend, because they are total opposite of each other.
"Done talking to Xy? So what our problem now?" Yana suddenly appear in my side, holding a cup of coffee.
"Misunderstanding. You remember Jellian, one of Ethan's admirer?"
"Uhuh? What about her?"
"She messed up."
Napatakip nalang ako ng muka ko dahil sa nangyayare sa kanilang dalawa. It already midnight here then suddenly Xy will call, just to rant about Tan. Not to lie, they are frustatrating.
"Just sleep for now, bespren. We talk about this tommorrow. My brain is not functioning right now. Same as yours." she advice to me.
And that our reason why we're bestfriend, cause we have the same mind. She already know what is on my mind and what is the meaning of my reaction, yet the action too.
I slept peacefully that night. Kinalimutan ko muna yung problema namin, yeah problema namin dahil ang problema ng isa ay problema na naming apat. I need to wake up early because our class start early than before, pachill-chill lang kami last time kasi start pa lang naman ng klase. We didn't time to have a proper breakfast. Nauna pa saken pumasok si Yana dahil sa additional curricullum nya sa school, which is checking every room if they are fine. Walang sira, sakto yung mga upuan bawat room, the aircon is working, and no pranks in the teachers.
"Hey dude! Where is Yana?" my, our new friend ask me.
"In the school already. School President duty, you know." he just laugh in my answer.
Nagsabay na rin kaming pumasok. Dan is always with us since he is our classmate. But, I didn't expect na sobrang close na nila ni Yana, cause they're just knew each other like a year ago? I mean, hindi naman ako tutol sa pagkakaibigan nila kasi sobrang natural lang naman pero how Dan look at my bestfriend, it's so different.
He look at Yana like Tan does.
"Good morning bespren!!" she greet me like that huh?
"You left me." naiinis kong sabi.
"Sorry, okay? I didn't mean to left you. It just kailangan kong pumasok ng maaga. Date tayo mamaya, ano?"
"Sige na nga. Libre mo ha?" wala lang gusto ko lang mamburaot ngayon.
"Kkb." paglaban pa nya.
"Kuripot mo naman."
Oo. Nagtatagalog kami. Ayaw lang kasi naming may nakakaintindi kapag nag-uusap kaming dalawa kaya we need to speak the other language. Tsaka ayaw pa rin naman naming malayo sa totoong lenggwahe, mamaya magaya pa kami kay Xyra na conyo.
"Sige na. Pero ngayon lang ha."
"Deal."
Yana's POV
What is the first thing to do when you wake up? Check the emails, especially from the school.
Aghhhh...bat ba kasi ako naging school president? Muka ba kong responsable? A higher position came a great responsibiity. Kaya ayun, halos wala na kong natutunan talaga dito dahil puro inuuna ko nalang ay ang utos ng Dean dito at ng mga responsibilidad bilang nakakataas na posisyon.
Kasalanan talaga to ni Dan eh, siya kasi yung nagrecommend saken sa Dean at sa iba pang mga nakakataas, ayun minomonitor na pala ako kaya wala nang nangyareng botohan dahil ako na yung napiling maging presidente. Naging proud naman yung pamilya ko nung nabalitaan nila yun pero hindi yun sapat dahil ang motto ko sa buhay ay, 'Focus on yourself because that is the most important'
Ngayon pano ko magfofocus sa sarili ko kung may iniintindi na kong nakakarami? Yung nakalakihan kong pagiging introvert, nagbago dahil kailangan kong makipagsocialize sa mga co-student ko.
"Good morning Allyana." the school guard greet me.
"Good morning!!"
"You're so early today. Why?"
"Responsibility. I'm sleepy pa but yeah." I can't explain anymore.
"Goodluck and have a nice day." he said and lend me the school papers.
Dumaan na muna ko sa Dean Office para malaman na nila na andito na ko. The Dean just greet me and let me walk around the whole area of the school, checking all the rooms then write the problem in the paper that the guard gave me. Papasa ko pa to mamaya sa Dean para maaksyunan na agad. Buti nalang at maaga din yung pagkain sa cafeteria kaya nakakain pa ko bago magpatuloy sa paagchecheck.
"Early huh?" Ashley ask me. She is the VP but she is more lucky because wala syang masyadong gagawin.
"No choice." I even roll my eyes because of irritation.
"Cheer up Ms. President. The day was just started, you will been through to that." she smile at me, I smile back.
She is rare to smile kaya kailangan sulitin kapag nangyare.
"I hope."
Nang matapos na ko pinasabay ko nalang kay Ashley yung mga papers kasi pupunta naman daw sya Dean's Office. Sana lang talaga wag na silang magpatawag pa ng meeting dahil drain na drain na ko.
"Good morning bespren!!" I need to greet him kasi iniwan ko sya kanina.
"You left me." oww sorry.
Kailangan ko pa tuloy bumawi sa kanya. Syempre ayoko namang iparamdam kay Emuel na nawawalan na ko ng oras sa kanya dahil konti nalang aalis na sya dito, uuwi na sya. Sana ako din. Hindi naman ako sobrang malungkot dun kasi kailangan na nya talagang umuwi dahil nag-aaway na dun yung dalawa, they become chaotic when we are not around. Kaya ko naman mag-isa dito kaya mas kailangan talaga sya dun.
"Can I come?" Dan suddenly ask us. Nalaman nya kasi yung friendly date namin ni Emuel.
Tumingin muna ko kay Emuel, alam na nya yun.
"Of course. You are our friend so you can come."
Alam kong pinipilit ni Emuel na maging mabait sa iba dahil may pagkamasungit sya talaga, kaming tatlo lang yung kinakausap nya ng maayos.
Sabay-sabay kaming naglakad paalis sa skul papuntang tabi-tabi para magfoodtrip. Yun lang kasi yung ginagawa namin pagkatapos ng pasok. Gumala na lang. Masaya naman sya actually kasi medyo narerelax ako kapag kumakain kami, magastos nga lang. Btw, dati nung wala pa si Emuel dito kila Dan ako nakikikain kasi masarap magluto yung Mama nya tas mabait pa.
Dan is actually treat me differently since I came here. Hindi ako ganun kamanhid para hindi malaman na may gusto sya saken, ayoko lang pag-usapan kasi awkward yun alam ko. Tsaka Dan is my only friend here so I can't lose him. Not now, not never.
"Way to go bespren." nagulat ako nang biglang tumabi saken si Emuel.
"I know. Don't remind me, okay?"
"I will miss you. And definitely this, I will miss this."
"I will miss this too...but let just remain like this. Let just be happy before that day comes." naiiyak na ko.
"Susunod ka ha?" tanong nya.
"Susunod ako." paninigurado ko sa kanya.
Matatagalan pa yun pero susunod ako sa kanya, uuwi ako sa kanila. Kasi iniintay nila ako.
