《I can't make you love me》Chapter 2

Advertisement

I cautiously placed my head on my hand lying on the chair table. I'm currently listening to introductions, which happen on the first day of school. I shifted my gaze slightly to the man standing near the door. I assumed he was a classmate in this or other subjects, but it turns out he is a third-year nursing student and were told to handle us first because our professor in the first subject is still in their province and will return tomorrow.

Napaupo ako ng tuwid nang ako na ang susunod. Ang bibilis nila magpakilala, ang iba naman pabebe pa. lintik na mga pabebeng yan.

'Sus maryusep na kabang to, bakit nag-exist ka pa sa mundo' I mentally snorted.

When it was my turn, I hesitated to stand up from my seat and adjusted my voice. I smiled as if I wasn't nervous, after all I'm a future psychologist, I must face my shame, perhaps I'll be a future patient rather than being a future psychologist. Sino ba kasi ang nag pauso ng ganito, tsk.

Matapos naming magpakilala ay may mga impormasyon pang sinabi ang lalaki bago inayos ang mga gamit nya at umalis. Ang bastos naman niyon, 'di manlang nagpakilala. Cold ang person.

I just shrugged at lumabas na ng classroom, hindi kami same time ni Alexah kaya dumiretso muna ako sa comfort room para umihi, kanina pa ko ihing-ihi, dumagdag pa yung kaba ko kanina.

I quickly went straight to the cubicle after entering the comfort room. It's a good thing I'm the only one in there, or else they'll think I'm insane.

As if on cue, someone who I guess was four women entered after I closed the cubicle door. Not to brag pero malakas talaga ang pakiramdam ko, that's why.

bulong ko sa kawalan.

Natigilan ako nang marinig ang pinag-uusapan nila at agad ding napairap ng makilala kung sino. Heto na naman ang chismis, kusang lumalapit sakin.

kinikilig na sabi ng isa.

sagot naman ng isa.

bulong naman ng isa at nagsitilian silang apat.

Napangiwi naman ako at nag flush bago lumabas ng cubicle. Bahagya pa silang nanahimik pagkalabas ko, nginitian ko lang sila at dumeretso sa lababo para mag hugas ng kamay pagkatapos ay lumabas na ng comfort room, nagpatuloy naman sila sa pagtitili.

I was on my way to the other building when I received a phone call. Its Alexah.

bungad ko sa kanya.

Narinig kong bahagya pa syang natawa bago sumagot.

sarkastikong sagot nya.

I just shrugged.

she instructed.

Agad akong lumingon sa bandang kaliwa ko at nakita ko syang nakangising kumakaway sa banda ko, nakapila sa laboratory room.

Nakangiti kong binaba ang tawag at naglakad papunta sa kanya, mukha pa syang bata na tumalon-talon kaya nawiwirduhang pinagtawanan naman sya ng mga kasama nya, or I should rather say, blockmates. Halos mapatampal ako sa aking noo sa ginawa nya.

Pagkalapit ko ay agad syang yumakap sa akin.

she said with a snort and let go from hugging me.

Nangunot naman ang noo ko sa ka dramahan nya at umiling.

Natatawang sabi ko.

Isa-isa nyang pakilala sa kanila. The one named Pierre frowned slightly.

nakangiti kong pagpapakilala sa kanila.

they both responded at once, except to their Senior.

In an apparent attempt to whisper something, Alexah crouched close to me.

naniningkit pa ang mata nyang bulong nya sakin.

I looked at the man who was at the door of the laboratory room and was talking to a professor.

I retorted.

She looked at me in disbelief.

maktol nya.

We stopped arguing when her block mates called her. Iniangkla nya ang kanyang mga kamay saking braso at tinangay ako kasama nya papunta sa harap ng laboratory.

Halos matalisod ako nang sa pagtigil namin sa harap ng laboratory ay syang paglabas ng pamilyar na pigura.

tawag ni Pierre, yung senior nina Alexah.

My mouth slightly opened because of his strong aura that enveloped my entire being.

'Shuta, ba't ako kinikilabutan?!" I mentally groaned.

His body looms enormous, a muscular physique with a midriff ratio. He has a strong jawline with a receding hairline, strong brow, and firm jaw. He has facial bone structure and clean-cut gorgeous hair. His face was intriguing and attractive. It was precise to state that he is a "tall, dark, and handsome."

Ang gwapo pero masungit. psh. Ideal ko na sana.

he answered in his baritone voice that gives chill down to my spine.

May ipinakitang papel sa kanya si kuya Pierre na sa tingin ko ay mahalagang dokyumento.

I softly nudge on Alexah who is busy in admiring the two men in front of us, as if they are gods.

mahinang boses kong tanong nang tumingin sya sakin.

Nakangiting tumango naman sya at pa sekretong tumili.

Napakunot naman ang noo ko.

medyonapalakas kong tanong kaya natigilan din ako mismo.

Agad akong napalingon sa pinagmulan ng baritonong boses. Its him. His blazing gaze is starting again to melt me. Normal pa ba 'to?

I shake my hands nervously.

halos nakangiwi kong sagot at hinarap si Alexah.

natatarantang bulong ko sa kanya at hinila na sya nang aalma pa sana.

I didn't look back at them and kept my eyes straight on the way. I really want to drown in quicksand because of shame.

pahabol pa ni Alexah sa mga block mates nya.

Muntik ko na syang masapak kung hindi lang nag huhurumintado tong puso ko sa kaba. Lintek na yan, ano bang meron sa taong yun.

Mahina akong hinila ni Alexah para kunin ang atensyon ko.

nakangising tudyo nya.

naiinis kong tanong.

Inosenti pa nyang sagot kaya tinaliman ko sya ng tingin.

Singhal ko sa kanya.

sarkastikong ganti nya at mahina pang pumalakpak

I just rolled my eyes and walked first. Tumawa lang sya at humabol sakin sa paglalakad.

Pagkatapos naming mag-lunch ay dumeretso muna kami sa mini garden ng school bago pumasok sa kanya-kanyang klase. Unang araw pa lang namin to pero parang pagod na pagod na ko. Tamad kong tinukod ang aking siko sa armchair at at pumangalumbaba.

Naka receive pa ko ng text mula kay Alexah, nag-aayang kakain ng streetfoods sa kanto ng tumunog ang bell hudyat ng dismissal.

I stretched my arms and arranged my things before leaving the classroom. I quitely walked down the corridor to the outside of the building when I saw Alexah with her block mates who had been in the lab with her earlier.

Agad din naman akong nakita ni Alexah ng makalabas na ko ng establisyamento. She waved at at me and I waved back. Ngiting-ngiti ito nang makalapit ako, nagtataka ko naman syang tiningnan.

matipid nyang sagot sa nagtatanong kong tingin.

Napatango naman ako at ngumiti sa kanila.

Nag- umpisa na kaming maglakad ng matigilan sila kaya napatigil din ako.

I suddenly received a call, so I excused myself from them, not giving a single look to whom the reason why they stopped.

Nangamusta lang si mama at tita samin ni Alexah at tinanong kung may allowance pa ba kaming natitira. Matipid akong napangiti sa kadaldalan nila ni tita. Narinig kong tinawag na ko ni Alexah kaya nagpaalam na ko at binaba ang tawag.

tanong ni Alexah pagkababa ko ng tawag. Tumango naman ako.

nakangiti kong sagot at binaling ang tingin sa mga kasama nya.

Natigilan ako ng mahagip ng aking tingin sina Jeremiah at Pierre na nakatingin sa banda namin.

Nangunot ang aking noo at binaling ang nanlalaking mata ko kay Alexah.

inosenting tanong nya.

Tinaasan ko lang sya ng kilay at pasimpleng tinuro gamit ang aking labi ang dalawang lalaki na ramdam ko ang tingin nito samin.

Napatingin naman doon sa kanila si Alexah at unti-unting ngumisi.

she just shrugged and tap my shoulder innocently.

Nauna na syang bumalik sa mga kaibigan nya kaya wala na kong nagawa kundi ang sumunod.

Mukhang hindi ako nito mapaparami ng kain ng kwek-kwek.
