Gemini



Sweaty, messed-up, and wasted from school, I stood there waiting long-sufferingly for Leslie to arrive. I checked my mobile phone for time and I realized I've been standing there for 27 minutes flat. Checking my phone time and again was rather frustrating; I was growing impatient every second. For which I thought Leslie should understand how every second really counts by then. Then chucked the thought realizing I could have been worse.

I keenly monitored every passenger jeepney that was passing by the main road-- I was begging Him for me to see a Maja Salvador look-alike somewhere, somehow, among the passengers. But instead, out of nowhere, there emerged two souls wearing shirts of the same color, for which my eyes took a few seconds before it adjusted to the real sight.

I wasn't dreaming.

It was him, plus her. Shock was eating my body drastically and I begun to walk away-- or what could have been more stupid. I was hearing his voice calling my name, and I knew we were making a scene-- a scene that was amusing the eyes of the onlookers.

I couldn't look him straight in the eyes. I didn't know what to feel. There was the anger, the delight, shame, and all of that. I wasn't really talking to him-- I was-- but I can-t seem to find the push for that. Good thing there was his friend to save me.

Then she said:
"Uy, Fiona, lam mo ba dito na siya mag-aaral"

I said: "Oh, bakit?"

Her: "Dahil sa'yo"

"tsk. Hay nku, wag nga kau."

"totoo. Pakita mo nga.."

Then HE showed me something to which supported what they were telling me. They were serious. But I was in denial.

"Wag niyo nga kong lokohin"

Him: "Sinundan kita. hehe. "

Then from a sight, I saw a small group of Lycenians walking towards us, and then I saw Leslie. They went up the bus and I followed.

"Ba't ka bumaba [ng baguio] ?" I said through the bus window.

"PARA NGA SAYO!" he said at the top of his voice. And onlookers got even more mesmerized.

They went on their way, and I sunk in my seat crying. How could I've been so stupid?! He gave up his cool schoolife there for me. FOR ME. I mean, he was a having a damn great LIFE! Damn. This guy keeps on confusing me.

But I was and still touched. I made a complete turd out of him while he, I realized later, never did anything to show deeds of bitching me and all.

I'm so mean. And I'm a bad bad person. I have things crowding my already manipulated mind. One is, am I confusing everything for nothing? Damn.

I need to talk him again. And seriously this time.

Words of wisdom from my board of trustees:

''I guess for him, life in SLU in Baguio hasn't been the same without you, thus left it to see you again. Insane? Tanga? Crazy? Crazy as it may be, but he's a crazy ass just to see you. But it wasn't your fault; it was his decision to do so. Wanna end the confusion? Follow what your heart tells you Megs.''
