I looked at the window, and thought about [i]Ex[/i].
“Ethan, tinatawag ka!”
Even if you say it in a million times, I won’t respond. Besides, I do not want to face the reality of my very first day of being single. It sucks man, it really does.
I think it’s because I got used to this routine. [i]Break up. Wake up. Make up.[/i] And it goes again and again, like a never-ending love cycle. But it really hit the crap out of me when she told me that she’s tired of me. Although you can truly say that she was the one who’ve always wanted a break up. I mean, I was patient though I kind of checked some girls out.
Someone slapped my back from behind. And before I knew who it was, I already cussed, “Shit man.”
“Excuse me?”
I realized I just cussed at my teacher–my teacher for my very last class. My classmates fell silent. It was humiliating, but I can’t do anything about it. I have my rights to sleep because his class is rally boring.
“I mean, sorry,” I scratched my head, hoping that he’ll let it slip this time.
“Spacing out in the middle of the class? You’ll get zero for today’s participation grade!”
My eye twitched, “You F–”
“ –Sir! May typo sa sheet na to.” He glared at me one last time and turned his back.
Kelly elbowed me in my arm and whispered, “Hindi ka rin sira no? Kung minura mo pa ulit yan, baka bukas ka na makawala.”
Umikot naman mata ko, “Kasalanan ko ba.”
She elbowed me again, “Oy. Break na kayo no? Sama ng araw mo e.”
Hindi ko na siya sumagot, and fate’s luck na nagring yung bell. I don’t want this break up to be official; since I know she’ll come back and make up to me. And yes, rumors spread fast. Since I [i]was[/i] dating a rich and beautiful girl.
It annoyed that I was currently fed up with every single thing that concerns her. Sometimes I can’t help to think that she doesn’t really need me. And the second thing that usually pops out is, ‘I’d rather hear a lie than hear her say that’.
I went to the locker room. It really felt odd to go to the actual locker room, since normally inside the classroom yung locker ko. Tanga rin kasi ako, nagskip pa ako ng classes nung na-announce ng locker number. Naubusan tuloy ako.
Worse, there are only plenty of guys who got their lockers assigned in this big room.
I walked along and saw my locker. It was placed in the very corner of the room. I placed my books inside and when I locked it close, I heard girls trying to comfort a crying girl. And I bet this matter is about love.
“Don’t worry, marami pa namang iba dyan.”
“I know, right? Gago yang ex mo. Pangit pa.”
I looked at them in the corner of my right eye. I was curious, since they’re also girls. I might learn something out of their ‘love’ perceptive.
The broken-hearted girl stopped form crying, “I think you’re right. Alam mo bang si Jared umamin na? Gwapo niya sobra.”
Then this girl, I don’t think she’s part of the group but I do know her, leaned on the locker and crossed her arms across her chest. “Why do you get so excited over this stuff?”
“What do you mean?” her friend laughed, “Lux kasi, ikaw wala kang love life. It’s natural na hindi ma-gets.”
I was confused. Lux? Does she mean Lux na valedictorian-to-be ng batch namin? Well, I think her friend is right. There’s no way that she’ll ever understand the concepts of love if her situation is like that: Study. Sleep. Study. Kaya nga kapal na ng lenses ng glasses niya.
“You’re saying that love is about features? No wonder why you guys always end up with an empty heart,” she pushed her glasses against the bridge of her nose.
Correct, but still. How could she even say that? It won’t make any sense if it was said by a person who never fell in love before. Geez, man.
“If love is just about owning the most handsome guy in this university, then it would not be that difficult. To sum it all up, it’s stupid.”
Her friends started laughing; I bet they didn’t get her point. Well, I did so I walked closer to them.
They looked down on me as if I was an outsider having no right to give a piece of statement within the conversation.
“Y’all,” I said loudly, “Not all handsome guys are worth loving. So if I were you, get serious with it.”
The Lux girl raised her eyebrow at me. I winked in return of that glare, “But you? You got my back. Nice thinking by the way.
”
I left the locker room and made my way to the front gate. My phone beeped, thinking that it was a call from Hazel. It was just an alarm I set a long time ago. My phone would beep and remind me that I should now go to Hazel’s school and pick her up. But that would not happen anymore… I guess.
“Alis ka na, pogi?”
“Oo. Ge, manong,” I waved my hand goodbye.
I wasn’t sure if someone was following me or it’s just me. When I turned around, I saw the girl from awhile ago. She knew I turned around to look at her, but she didn’t even try to lit her head up or something.
When I finally arrived at our subdivision, I tried to look back and why the heck was she following me? She was so creepy, kaya naman binilisan ko maglakad. BInilisan din niya maglakad. Naisip ko lang, ano ba to? Pareho ba talagang route yung tine-take naming pauwi?
Nung narinig ko na siyang humihingal, she pulled my shirt. I turned my back, feeling so terrified.
Looking so desperate, she breathed out, [b][i]“P-Pogi… Ano number mo?”[/i][/b]
