Kahit papaano naman, I was able to breathe properly. I do admit, I had a hard time saying the truth about what I feel. I don’t care what would her response be, all that matters to me is, I’ve said the truth. I carried her and lay her down on the bed. Instead na nasa floor kami, ang lamig. “naman… rkensuinaerdd.. ang initt…” Hinubad ko yung jacket na suot niya. “Hoy! Anong ginagawa mo!?” O.o “Ay. Hindi ah! Sige na nga, alis na ako.” “Wag… Dito ka lang…” “P-Pero,” I sighed, “Okay, if you say so.” —–λ—– Earl’s Point Of View Clariane never learned how to handle things. That’s why I did that. Akala niya siguro, I turned into a maniac again. But well, iba na talaga ako. I wish to play the male protagonist of the story, but then, as the crowd said, si Kris nalang since he’s the president. And ako? I’m just a very lame vice president of the club. Whenever I hear the name Clariane, I remember the times when I first laid my eyes on her. She’s the girl I adored since I stepped on the high school department. Nagpaka-bobo lang ako since sinabi ko nga na mahal ko yung tao, but not in a proper way. How would she believe me now? Even if she said that she already forgave me, hindi ako naniniwala. I can never bring that trust back, again. I can’t court her. I mean, that’s not what she expects from me. She looks at me as her best friend. Lagi naman ganun eh. And besides, andyan si Kris. I just wonder, saan ba nanggaling tong Kris na ‘to? Hindi nga niya kaano-ano eh. Hay. “Good morning, Clarz.” “Good morning,” she smiled. “How was the night?” “It was terrible.” I laughed, “Let’s eat.” We sat and started eating. We were alone. “Oh by the way, what’s your role pala?” “I have no idea,” I chuckled. “What do you want ba?” “R–Rom… I mean, antagonist,” I grinned. Ang torpe ko talaga. I didn’t speak anymore, tapos ayun, we ate silently. Ang awkward nga eh. I can’t even open a topic, although I’ve been with her in the past three years. Ganyan ang torpe. “Onga pala…” “Hmm?” “Kris told me that I should teach you how to dance.” “Oh okay,” I closed the door and I don’t even know why. “Okay na?” “Yes,” I smiled, “Game on.” I press the red button on the CD player. She started dancing with the beat. I can’t help but to think that she’s definitely adorable. “Earl, put your hand here, then I’ll put mine on your shoulders, get it?” And so I did what she said. “It’s kind of hard…” “Step, Right, Turn Left…” I just kept on following her steps. My eyes were on hers. She’s too irresistible; she’s like a drug–my sweetest drug. If you just knew how scared I am to tell that I am so in love with you. My face was just inches away from hers, kulang nalang eh, halikan ko na to. But I know that would be too disrespectful. If only you were mine, I would not be having these weird thoughts in my mind. The CD player got screwed up–naging Tango yung slow dance. And because of my nature of liking fast music, I danced seriously. I was too fast, too fast that it made her confused of what she was actually doing. “You want superb!?” She exclaimed as she was gasping for air. “Sure, why not. I’m challenging you.” I think, she did take it as a challenge. Believe me or not, we’ve been dancing for two hours and, di pa siya tumitigil. “Dang, what happened to you…” I asked myself. I was so exhausted that time. Tapos siya? Hyper, sige pa rin. “Clariane? Aren’t you tired?” “No I’m not. Don’t tell me you’re already giving up?” “Sayo pa? No way. Ganda mo eh…” “I beg your pardon?” “I mean, you’ll lose.” “As if,” she said and I saw a half-smile crossed her face. That’s what I like about this girl. She is being too persuasive. She doesn’t give up. I was thinking, what if tungkol sa love life? Would she give up if she got hurt? “Oops,” she suddenly stopped. “Hmm?” “You forgot this step,” she said and showed it to me. Holy crap. She has very sharp eyes. O.o “Crap, oo nga,” I embarrassingly said and scratched my head. She laughed and said, “Do it now.” And again, I did what she said. That was the last step. Ang pinakagusto ko sa lahat. “Earl, next step.” I want to kiss her so bad… Someone forcefully opened the door. Guess what? It’s Kris. He immediately grabbed her from me. Naman! Torpe ka talaga, Earl. Ang slow mo. “Oops, tol. She said next step.” “Oh… Sorry… I was out of my mind.” Clariane's Point Of View Nung umaga na, I saw Earl. Tapos kumain muna kami, then tinuruan ko na siya. He even challenged me. Ginawa tuloy naming dance floor yung function hall. And guess what? Muntik na niya talaga akong i-kiss. >.< Ewan. Whatever nalang talaga ako. >.< Sino? Si Prince ba? Well... I'm not really sure if I should forget him or what. Kasi naman, there is still hope inside of me. Pero it's ridiculous na naghihintay ako na dumating siya at magpropose. Maybe, for the big chance, it's time to open my heart to somebody. And, hindi ko pa alam kung kainino. God will help me naman e. “Good AM bro, galing mo sumayaw,” I said in a boyish accent. “Ano ka ba pare. Leader ako ng Kraze eh.” “Yabang, sus. Teka ah, tawagin ko yung iba.” I saw Ann walking closer to us. "Hey sup?" I sarcastically asked and waved my hand. "Yo sup, cousin?" "Hmm, mukang hindi ka nakatulog kagabi? Your hair is a mess," I laughed. "You are so damn right. I was texting with my babe last night." "Babe?! O.o When did you ever have one? Nauna ka pa sakin." "Shh! It's a secret. His name is Dan, and he's your batchmate." Dan? Kailan pa? I'll tell it to her mom. Just kidding. "But you told me that you like Anthony, right?" "Y-Yes. But, he doesn't talk to me," she said disgustingly. "Whatever. Break up with that Dan and flirt with Anthony. " Bad influence talaga ako. "P-Pero..." "Che. Cheer up kid. Mapapansin ka rin niya," I smiled. "Whatever ka," she laughed and slapped my back. Pumunta kaming mga babae sa pool para magpalamig.. kinwento ko sakanila mga nangyari samin nina Earl at Kris kagabi. "Naks, you're being massacred." Massacred? Ano ba tong si Myca. Magaling naman sa english, pero tuleg magsalita. "Yes yes. Sino ba mas matimbang?" "Echos niyong mga bruha kayo," tumawa muna ako, "Si Earl? He's just my best friend." "Eh si Kuya Kris?" I started moving my feet, "A-Ano... Syempre, Bro ko yun." Lumapit si Myca sakin. As in super lapit. O.o "Don't tell me si Prince yun-" "Oo na," I shook my head, "Siya pa rin. Leche. Fooled by infatuation." "You should let go of him. Besides ano ba, bata pa kayo nun. Wala pa kayo sa tamang condition. " "Tamang condition? Ano kami? Abnormal?" "Sira. I mean, dami namang may gusto sayo diyan. Open your heart na kasi." "If I were to do that, sino naman?" "Yung dalawang gwapo." "Dalawa?" Ann held my hand, "Oo nga. Just try to open it for them." Di na ako makakibo. "You heard Ann. And she's right, just try. We don't want you to get hurt since," she frowned, "umaasa ka lang sa wala."
