Tampuhan

I didn't know what should I expect today.

Last Saturday, we went to school so Mrs. Lopena can "teach" us about the thesis. Wala rin namang nangyari. Late na akong dumating. Before going to school, I texted Jette to bring extra money so we can eat out. I also told that to Steni when I called her.

Matagal na naming gustong mag-KFC kaming magkakaibigan. Wala lang, sort of bonding. We (or maybe it's just me, since I was like the only one who'se persistent about it) are always planning for a bonding together, which--unfortunately--hindi parati natutuloy. Parati kasi silang nag-iinarte e. Kahit minsan nakakadisappoint na, hindi ko magawang magalit sa kanila. Ewan ko ba.

So that Saturday, upon arriving at school, I asked them out. LOL. "Date" nga daw sabi ni Steni. Mukha namang payag si Steni, while Jette is putting on that "I don't like" attitude. Parati naman silang ganun. Kasi kami, mahilig kaming mang-trip. Mga artista yung mga ganun. Super biruan kami, so we hardly take each other seriously. I seriously want to be with them today and is planning to ditch the Glee Club practice so we can go out together. I don't know if Jette is really serious. Marami pa daw siyang gagawin.


So ang KFC ay napunta sa McDo. Dapat sa Treats na lang kami. Si Jette nag-iinarte pa rin. Ako nangungulit pa rin. Nasa labas na kami. Jette is still being maarte, and said he doesn't want to go. Based on his expression, I know he just needs some persisting. Steni was saying, "Seryoso, san tayo?"

Ang arte-arte ni Jette. Naiinis na ako. Pff.

So when he said he doesn't want to go and they're going home, sinabi ko, "Edi 'wag!" and pulled away from Steni (I was holding her hand). Nag-bonggang-bonggang walk out ako. I feel a bit irritated. I was expecting them to call me back. Nag-iinarte lang naman ako, sinasabayan ko lang ang pag-iinarte ni Jette. I was prepared to go back and grin. But when I looked back, wala na sila.

I was trying my best na 'wag magpatama sa GM ko. Nag-iinartehan lang naman kami, and I don't want it to turn into serious one.

He texted me that night.This is what I remembered in our short text exchange.

Jette: Oi idol, wag ka nang magtampo. Marami pang kasing gagawin, ayoko ng rush! Haha. XP (Calling me "idol" was our little private joke.)
Me: Ewan ko sa'yo.Bleh.
[after the GM]
Jette: Drama eh.
Me: Talaga, ma-drama ako.
Jette: E ang dami pa kayang gagawin! Madrama ka naman talaga, may pawalk-out-walk out ka pa. Che.
Me: Wala akong pake.Ganun ako e.
Jette: Talaga. Madrama ka. Madrama. Madrama. Madrama. Madrama. Madrama.
Me: Talaga. Talaga. Talaga. Talaga. Talaga. Madrama talaga ako. Wala ka nang magagawa dun. Ganun ako e.

I was actually okay that night. Trip ko lang talagang sungitan siya. Maarte kasi talaga ako. Nagpapaamo lang ako. Pero hindi na siya nagtext after that. Siguro akala galit ako.

Knowing Jette, dahil super mahiyain 'yon, di ko alam kung iaapproach ako nun.Bahala na sa Monday, I told myself this weekend. Sana magkabati kami.

Late na naman ako ngayon araw, as usual. I was unusually not bubbly. I was a bit serious. There was a little tension between me and Jette. I was talking to Steni, but not to him. E naiilang din ako. Anong sasabihin ko sa kanya? Saka, bah, dapat siya unang kumausap sa'kin.

We weren't talking to each other, though magkakasama pa rin kami. Nung bababa na kami para magpractice, he called on Steni, then me to come down. I dunno if gusto niya talaga akong pansinin o nabigla lang siya. Hindi ko pa rin siya kinakausap. Di ko alam kung counted yun. Haha.

Nung pumunta na kami sa extension para mag-practice, nag-usap sila ni Lea. Tapos sabi ni Lea sa'kin, sabi daw ni Jette bakit di ko siya pinapansin, pero si Steni daw kinakausap ko. May favoritism daw ako. E sabi ko ano namang sasabihin ko sa kanya.

Nagyaya akong mag-noodle sa Noodle House. Sumama si Jette. We're still not talking, although minsan nagkakabanggaan kami or something.

After we finished our noodles at classroom, we played like kids. Step-foot, Doctor Quack-Quack, then Langit-Lupa. We played Langit-Lupa with our chairs being the "langit", and the rule that we shouldn't be in the same chair for 10 seconds. Super and ingay namin. Naghahagisan ang upuan sa room. Tapos nung after naming magpahinga dahil pagod na, naglaro ulit kami. Langit-lupa ulit, pero dahil walang gustong maging taya, sabi ko, unahan na lang kaming makahawak sa blackboard from the end of our room. And huli, taya. Grabe, super nag-unahan nga! Nadaganan pa ako, ilang beses. Ngudngod na muka ko sa sahig e. Si Asis ba naman nakadagan sa'kin! Akala ko katapusan na ng ngipin ko. Ilang beses pa yun. Si Quintero nga tumwembang sa upuan dahil kay Asis. Ubaob kaming lahat. Wala, pagkatapos nito, lumpo na kami. XD

Nag-uwian na rin kami maya-maya. Nung nasa pinto na sila, Jette bid a playful "Bye Ivy!". I grinned secretly.

Nakita ko rin sila sa pinagpapaprint namin dahil may ipapaprint ako. I grinned at Steni, and Jette grinned at me kahit di ko siya pinapansin. Pinansin na rin ako ni Jette, at nung naka-upo na ako, kinulit-kulit niya ako. He's holding on my arms so I cannot ignore him.

"Bakit di mo ako pinapansin? Bakit si Steni pinapansin mo naman?" He asked in a makulit manner. Paulit-ulit yun. I said "Wala. Bakit naman kita papansinin, anong sasabihin ko sa'yo?" Bakit naman daw kay Steni kahit nonsense sinasabi ko. The questions and answers went around. Paulit-ulit lang, nag-kukulitan at nag-iinartehan lang kami. Natatawa na ako. When he "freed" me, he's saying may "favoritism" daw ako.

Hindi na ulit kami nagpansinan at pinaparinggan na lang ako. LOL.

I know. Muka kaming tanga. Para kaming bata. This is seriously amusing me. Haha. Ewan, baka bukas pansinin ko na rin siya. Bahala na. :>
