May 20 messages pa galing sa kanila. Pinakamaraming messages si Dervin. Hala, sobrang nag-alala siguro sila. I texted the three of them saying na nakauwi na ako around 7PM and apologizing for making them worry. After a few minutes tumawag si Dervin. “Hello?” “Hello Steph? Anong nangyari sa’yo?” “Wala. Na-injure lang ‘yung paa ko tapos nahilo ako. Pero may tumulong naman sakin kaya—“ “You could’ve just asked Tristan to go or at least let me take you there!” “It’s okay. Maayos naman na ako. As I said may tumulong sa’kin.” “Still, anything could happen. Pa’no kung hindi mabait ‘yung tumulong sa’yo? Pa’no kung walang tumulong sa’yo?” “Hey hey hey Dervin. Cut it out will you? I’m fine, okay?” “Sorry.” “Sorry too. Alam kong nag-alala kayo.” “You should probably take a rest.” “Ikaw rin. Goodnight.” “G’night.” I hung up. He’s so worried. Haixt. Kawawa naman siya. I was supposed to go down when my notebook caught my eyes. It had a blue post-it. A message. [quote][i]Stephanie, I hope you don’t mind that I checked your things. I read your notes. Nakausap ko na ‘yung captain ng basketball team namin. He said he would fax the confirmation letter to your school tomorrow. Ask the doctor to check your foot. Take care, Lawrence[/i][/quote] Hala. Ginalaw pa ‘yung gamit ko. Sabagay, wala nga pala siyang clue kung sino ako. Siguro kung ako ‘yung nasa position niya gan’on din gagawin ko. Ang bait naman niya. To think of it, sino ba ako para tulungan niya ‘di ba? I went down to eat then had a sponge bath and other night rituals, tapos natulog na. I woke up around 4:30AM. Normally 6:00AM ako nagigising kasi 7:30 pa ang klase namin. However, I couldn’t go back to sleep. I changed from pajamas, washed my face and brushed my teeth. I took my MP4 and cell phone and tried to jog around the neighbourhood. I love jogging. It helps me clear my thoughts. Kaso lang, medyo masakit pa ‘yung paa ko. Alangan magjogging ako. So, I decided to walk around na lang. Walking is still a form of an exercise right? [quote]MP4, Now playing: No Angel by Saosin take back and rewind this tape or erase it black and you'll never think of him but we've had one chance to take back but over and over again i'll clean your wounds this time so we can rewind all to black on tonight i'll tear into another lie (to you) cause you wouldn't take me home your eyes are nice to be clear now cause you wouldnt take me home your right and it wasn't a mistake i never told you what you were missing and i will feel the sign i will feel the way and i will feel the sign to eternal sin? i never wanted to hear all the things that you told me we are the only ones we are running from i never wanted to hear all the things that you told me we are the only ones we are running from this time it's over it's all in my head now it's over this time i'm not coming home tonight (just take me home) i want to break it off we should stop cause there's nothing going on we are the only ones[/quote] “Ang emo naman ng tugtog ko habang naglalakad.” I told myself. Before the song finished, somebody went to my side. Medyo nagulat ako pero si Tristan lang pala ‘yun. “G’morning!” I removed my one ear phone from my left ear and smiled at Tristan. “Good morning.” “Ang aga mo naman magising. Teka, bakit naglalakad ka lang? Why not jog?” I pointed at my foot and then his smile disappeared. “Eto ba ‘yung nangyari kahapon?” I nodded. “Ang kulit mo kasi eh. Sabi ko kasi sa’yo hahatid na kita eh. Ano bang nangyari?” “Kukwento ko sa’yo pero upo muna tayo sa swing d’un sa playground. Sakit na ng paa ko eh.” “Ahaha, oo nga pala. Sige, ‘lika na.” We sat on the swing and he offered me the water he brought with him I drank and told him the story. Tahimik lang siya habang nakikinig sa’kin. Si Tristan ba ‘to? Ang tahimik ah. Normally makulit ‘to tsaka nagsa-side comment every once in a while. Ngayon, natapos ‘yung kwento ko, ang narinig ko lang sa kanya “talaga” tska “gano’n.” “Tristan? Bakit ganyan ka? May problema ba? Bakit ang tahimik mo?” “Ha? Ah, wala. Naalala ko lang kahapon.” [i]“Bakit? Anong nangyari kahapon?”[/i] [spoiler]CHAPTER 4: “You know what Steph, you should realize na kahit boyish ka and halos lahat ata ng lalaki sa campus komportable sa’yo, tinatawag kang pare or dude or bro, you’re still a girl. You’re sweet and caring. You might not realize it but you’re beautiful too.” “Sa’n ba papunta ‘yang sinasabi mo?” “Hmm… I guess iiwan ko na lang na palaisipan ‘yan sa’yo.” “Huh? Ano ngang ibig mo sabihin?”[/spoiler]
