After that night, I found myself hugging the unconscious guy. Who would immediately jerk nga naman knowing na you slept on the study table then you would find yourself na nasa kama kasama ang lalakeng to? 8O
Gee. This isn’t ‘nakakakilig’, this is embarrassing.
I immediately went to the bathroom, which is also one of my daily routine, then when I saw my reflection on the mirror…
“HOLY COW,” I said as I saw my lovely face filled with random drawings and letters.
I looked at the guy and he gave me a crooked smile.
“I’ll curse you!” I said loudly and I guess it was too loud since I saw him opened his eyes.
He stretched and then looked at me for a moment. He started bursting into laughter, “Look at you!
”
“Shut up,” I said softly and washed my face.
Silence occupied the room.
I broke the silence by asking, “What’s your name?”
“Name…?” He said and gave me an I-don’t-know look.
“Duh?”
“I don’t know…” He said and looked far away.
“Are you stupid? Di mo alam name mo?”
“I’m sorry, but, I don’t really know.” He said and sat down.
Lord, don’t tell that this guy actually lost his memory. It’s not funny. 8O Don’t tell me that Korean novels are also happening into the real world. 8O
“Maybe… Never mind. Let’s go downstairs,” I said and then I grabbed his hand. I suddenly felt the static electricity when I touched his hand.
I let go of his hand and said, “Stay here.”
I headed to the kitchen and there I saw my mom cooking our morning food.
“Mom, you won’t believe me. I swear. That guy right there? He lost his memory.”
“How come he lost his memory? I wasn’t able to hit his head.”
Natulala ako at nasabing, “I don’t know, either.”
“Don’t worry, I know you are responsible.
Ikaw na bahala dito ha, I still have some errands to finish.”
“But what if-”
“No buts, bye.” She smiled and kissed my cheek.
Why is she passing it to me? I mean, it wasn’t my fault. 8O It’s her fault, so she should be the one fixing this @#@#!@$ guy. I do admit this is luck. Oh well.
I went up to him and told him to eat with me.
"W-who am I?"
Don’t tell him he has amnesia, DUH?! Come on, Clariane. You can think, right? You’ve got brains, right!? THINK!
“Uh. You are Kristian Fradillada. You are my batch-mate so that basically means that you are an incoming junior.” I said in a very fast rate.
"O…kay? Who are you then? Why am I here?
Dang it, bakit ba tanong ng tanong?
“Don’t you remember? I’m your close friend, Clariane. And you mom told me that you’re going to live with me, in the mean time.” I sighed, because I’m not used in lying. I don’t even think I’m good at lying.
I guess he already felt contented with that information. I also think that, that explains all. I hope he would just stop asking me random questions about him, because I don’t really know him. 8O Starting today, I’ll call him Kris.
I toured him in my so-called fairy tale mansion. As of now, we’re here at the garage, chatting. I noticed that he was always looking at my newly-washed uniform.
“Lariane, where are you studying?”
"In Saint Margaret's College. It’s not Lariane, but Clariane,” I said annoyingly.
Wait a second. Speaking of Enrolment, last day na to. Maybe it would be best if I would enrol him in my school, right? I don’t want him to get stuck in my house, acting like an ‘alalay’. Baka ano pa gawin niya. 8O
“I can take you to the campus,” I smiled and grabbed his electric-producing hand.
I grabbed my wallet and rode the jeppney. I’m pretty sure Mom will be shocked and angry at the same time kapag nalaman niya iyo. But she said, I’ll take responsibility for it, right? So she should not be angry, I guess.
I looked at the guy, este Kris. His cheeks are hot red, and then I looked down and saw our hands still locked together. I want to let go, but, that would not be a good idea.
Then he started poking me.
“Clarz, is this the school?”
I turned around, “What? Oh yes. Tara, baka ma-late eh.”
“Mahuli? Saan?”
“Well, hindi ka pa enrolled eh.” I just grinned and then we entered the campus.
Like what my Mom did to me, I left him at the student Center. Then I went straight to the AVR. I asked for a form, and guess what? I was the one who filled it out. Of course everything was just a guess.
“Ms. Montolla?”
I looked up and saw her with the confused look, “y-yes ma'am?”
“Bakit ikaw ang nagfi-fill ng form? And, where’s the student’s signature.”
Oh shoot! I almost forgot the most important part of the form, the signature. Whatever, leche yan si Miss Chen.
I saw girls asking for Kris’ number, unfortunately, I think he doesn’t have any phone right now.
I ran towards him, which is really exhausting, and asked for his signature. “Sign it,” I said while having deep breaths.
Then I saw him signed the form, and what’s interesting is, he wrote K-Fradillada. There I realized that he really has this amnesia thing.
I went to the AVR and confirmed everything, and poop!
We’re now officially schoolmates.
We went to a nearby ice cream store, which is Ministop. I didn’t know we have the same taste. I mean, he chose cookies and cream, and that’s my favourite flavour, too.
I watched him as he lick the ice cream. Dang, he looked like a cat.
“How about our uniforms?”
Good question, stranger. Besides, he’s right. Where am I going to buy him uniforms? 8O This is too difficult, I don’t even have enough money to buy him one.
“Oh,” I exclaimed, “My older brother is an alumnus of the school, and we kept his uniform, I guess that’ll do.”
Good thing he asked, or else, he’s dead.
After the ice cream fun, we went home and I saw my family. Although I was hesitant to tell everything at first, but like I said, I am not good in lying, so I told them what I’ve done awhile ago. I even thought my mom would get mad, good thing she did not.
“That’s my girl,” She smiled.
“Mom, you know I’m wrong.”
“No, it’s alright. I know you are this responsible,” she laughed and hugged me.
We ate dinner that night. Then I saw my older brother Carlo, in Kris. I don’t know, probably because they have the same physical feature.
“What?” He whispered.
“Don’t ‘what’ me. Go eat.” I said and chuckled.
It was 11 in the evening when the movie we were watching was finally finished.
“Iha, Iho. Matulog na kayo,” Sabi ni Manang and eventually turned the TV off.
“Manang naman,” I grinned at her then I turned it on.
“Clariane, matulog na.”
Aw. I shouldn’t be sleeping. Besides, may bagong movie na eh. Last na nga lang to tapos pasukan na. Unfair talaga.
“Manang, where would I sleep?” Kris looked up and said, “Dito nalang ako sa sala.”
“Ay naku. Hindi ka makakatulog diyan iho, doon ka sa kwarto ni Clariane.”
WHAT? Seryoso ka ba Manang?
“Manang!” I narrowed my eyebrows.
“Wag na Manang ng Manang. Tulog na,” At pinatay na nga niya yung TV.
Hay. Daming malas oh. I know, my bed is kind of large but, sa dinami-dami naman ng kama dito sa house, bakit bed ko pa? I looked at Kris, and he doesn’t have any reaction about this. Maybe, ako lang talaga ang mahilig mag-panic? 8O
Ayos lang yan, Clariane. Ah He He He. Ayos lang yan. Ah he he he he.
“AH HE HE HE..”
“Hmm?”
“What? Oh, nothing.” I said and looked away.
I didn’t notice that I was actually saying that stuff. 8O
“The movie is funny, right?” He smiled.
“Uh. Yup,” I forced a smile knowing that the movie we watched was a really, really bad movie.
When we lie down, lumayo muna ako ng konti. I was approximately 6 inches away from him. I tried to cover my face with the pillow to calm myself. But it won’t even help. 8O I turned around and faced Kris. I was astonished when I his eyes, already closed.
I was still conscious in the next thirty minutes, but then my phone rang. So I answered it.
“Hello?” I said with a cracked voice.
“Clariane, punta ka dito sa bar. Hurry!”
“Dang it, why? It’s already 11:30 in the evening, you guys should leave.”
Then I heard a very familiar voice, it was Earl.
“Clariane…”
I panicked, “Earl?!”
“I need you…”
