《Fangirl Turns To His Girl | Ricci Rivero Fanfic》#FOURTEEN: FALLING

"This one, what do you think?" Tanong ni Ricci habang may tinatapat na pink t-shirt sa akin.
Sinamahan niya kasi ako dito sa department store. Bukod kasi sa pagsama ko kay Dal dito, plano ko ding bumili ng damit pambahay. Yung ate ko kasi, halos lahat ng damit ko sinusuot din. I need new shirts na.
"Haish, bakit pink? Ayoko niyan." Ayoko din ng lumalapit siya sa akin. Nawawala ako sa focus. "Gusto ko yung black, white, gray, mga ganon."
"For real Khaira? Gusto mo pala yung mga boyish color." Pailing-iling siya habang naghahanap siya ng t-shirts. "Tapos nandito pa tayo sa Men's Wear. Nakalimutan mo na yatang babae ka?" Then he laughs.
"Haha! Of course I am." I said.
"Of course what? You forgot that you are a woman?" Pang-aasar niya.
"Of course I'm a woman! Pambahay lang naman kasi yung hinahanap ko dito. Mas komportable kasi ako sa maluluwang na shirts. Eh mahirap maghanap ng ganon sa pambabae. Kaya sa panlalaki ako laging pumipili ng t-shirt." Sabi ko sa kanya sabay talikod.
"Uy teka, oo na sige na. Heto oh, try mo. Small to. Kasya sayo." Then may sinukat siya sa akin yung damit.
Yes. Sukat talaga kasi sinuot niya sa akin yung damit kahit may suot ako. Nakakainis lang, sobrang lapit na naman niya sa akin. Kaya naman umatras agad ako after niyang maisuot sa akin yung t-shirt. Tumapat ako sa salamin. Okay naman yung damit. Maganda siya. Hindi halatang panlalaki.
"Ano nagustuhan mo ba?" He suddenly appeared at my back while I'm looking in the mirror. His two hands are on my shoulder which caused me to feel uneasy. He smiles at me through the mirror. And I hate it because he never fails to make my heart beats fast.
"Yeah. Bibilin ko to." Then I pulled out the shirt on me.
"Tara doon, may nakita akong maganda." Pag-aaya niya sabay hila sa akin. Hawak-hawak na naman niya ang kamay ko. Napansin niya yatang nakatingin ako sa mga kamay namin. Kaya binitiwan niya bigla yung kamay ko. Ang kaso may biglang nakabangga sa akin which makes me out balanced. Muntik na akong tumumba but someone catches me, holding my back. Of course it's Ricci. My arms on the other hand, automatically clung onto his neck.

When I glance at him, he's already staring at me. My heart beats so fast again. I don't know what to do. He's really close to me. One wrong move, those lips of him will touch mine.
"Eheem! Excuse me po." Someone interrupted.
Ngayon lang yata narealized ni Cci yung posisyon namin because he suddenly pulled me up and helped me to gain my balance back.
"Ah, ahmm... you okay?" He glanced at me then looks down avoiding my eyes. He seems nervous. No doubt, he held me a while ago in an awkward position for like five to seven seconds but it feels like we stared at each other for a longer time. Me either was feeiling nervous that I forgot what he is asking.
"Sorry po Miss, nabangga kita. Sorry." Sabi nung nakabangga sa akin.
"Next time bro, konting ingat na lang." Seryosong sabi ni Ricci dun sa lalaki.
"Sorry ulit."
"Sige, okay lang." Then I smiled at him because he looks like napahiya siya.
Afterwards, umalis na yung lalaki na around our age lang din.
"Why do you smile at him?" Ricci asked me with a straight face.
"Huh? Wala naman. Bakit?" What is he thinking?
"Nothing." He says. Bakit biglang ang cold niya? Aish, dedma na lang.
Bale, four t-shirts lang yung napili ko. Magbabayad na sana ko sa counter but something caught my attention. I saw a green tank top. Ang cute ng design, heart emoji na naka-smile tapos with an arrow on it. Kumbaga, pusong napana ni kupido. Haha. Cute!
Tapos bigla na naman akong hinila ni Ricci. Nasasanay na yata siyang hinahawakan ako ah. Ang problema lang, parang may kuryente akong nararamdam whenever he touches me. Nagulat na lang ako kausap na pala niya yung sales lady. Then may kinuha si ate girl. Pagtingin ko yung tank top. I glanced at Ricci. He still looks serious. Problema neto?
"Actually Sir, may kapares to." Then may kinuha siyang white polo shirt na may green emoji na style archer tapos yung mata nung archer, heart heart. Basta ang cute niya din. Teka, pang-couple siya. Sayang naman, balak ko sana bilhin yung tank top. Kaso wala naman akong boyfriend eh.
"Heto Sir, bagay sa inyo. Pang-couple po." Sabi nung sales lady which adds more awkwardness to me. Si Cci kasi seryoso pa din.

"Ahmm, hindi po kami couple eh, hehe! Sige po." I said to the lady. "Tara na Cci!" Hihilain ko sana siya papuntang counter pero di ko natuloy. Ang higpit ng hawak niya sa kamay ko. Hindi man lang siya natinag nang hilahin ko siya. Galit ba to? Hindi man lang kasi ako pansinin.
"Sige Miss. Kukunin ko to." Hawak-hawak pa pala niya yung polo shirt at tank top.
"Sige po, sa counter na lang." Sabi nung sales lady nang nakangiti ng bongga.
"Okay, thank you!" Ricci smiled at her too which makes that lady blushed.
"Tss!" Hindi kayo bagay. Yung sales lady nginingitian mo tapos ako hindi. Kainis talaga to.
"Tara sa counter." He's back at being cold again. Sungit! Pwes, di ko din siya papansinin.
Binitiwan na din niya yung kamay ko. Buti naman, napagkakamalan kaming couple eh. Pero deep inside, I like it when he holds me. No, crap that, I love it pala. Pero syempre I know na he's doing that because he's being friendly. Yeah, that's it.
"Akin na yang mga shirts, ako nang magbabayad." Sabay kuha sa mga t-shirts na bibilhin ko.
"No, ako magbabayad niyan. Ibalik mo sa'kin." Pagsusungit ko.
"Tss! Ako na." He insisted. Okay, madaming tao. Ayokong gumawa ng eksena dito. Nakakainis talaga.
After that, nag-stroll pa kami sa mall. Siya may bitbit ng mga binili NIYA! Gentleman talaga siya eh kaso ang sungit naman. I walk faster than him. Ewan ko ba, bad trip talaga ako sa kanya.
"Teka hintayin mo naman ako." Habol niya sa akin. Bleh! Bahala ka diyan!
"Huy! Wait lang. Bakit ang sungit mo?" Nang naabutan niya ako hinawakan niya ulit ako. Mas mahigpit this time. Pero bakit ako? Siya kaya tong masungit.
"Excuse me? Ikaw kaya tong kanina pa nagsusungit! Akala mo hindi ko napapansin? Ang cold mo sa akin. Yung sales lady kanina nginingitian mo. Tapos pagdating sa akin, hindi. Ang seryoso mo kapag kinakausap mo ako. Tapos ngayon sasabihin mo ako ang nagsusungit! Huh?"
"Tss!" Loko to ah. Ang haba ng sinabi ko tapos siya wala lang. Inirapan ko siya but then, he grins.
"Ano bang trip mo? Bakit ganyan ka makangiti? Para kang timang. Nakakainis ka na!"
"Hahaha!" He laughs habang pailing-iling. Baliw na talaga to. Haish!
"Alam mo, pacheck-up ka na! Masama yan!" I said which makes him to stop laughing but still smiling.
"So bakit ka ngayon nagagalit? Yung totoo, nagseselos ka no?" Pang-aasar niya. What the?
"Hell no! Why would I?" I said while looking at him. Biglang nawala yung smile niya. Serious mode on. May nasabi ba akong mali?
"Huy!" Niyugyog ko yung kaliwang kamay ko na hawak niya. He seems annoyed and I don't know why. Pero out of the blue, bigla na lang siyang ngumiti. Tapos ginulo na naman niya yung buhok which caused my heart to thumps loud.
What the hell was that? Nagiging irregular na naman yung tibok ng puso ko. Masama na to. And I know, hindi na ko makakaalis dito. Aminado naman ako, sobrang saya ko simula nung makilala ko si Ricci. I always smile out of the blue when I think of him. I'm always happy when I'm with him. Yeah, I like him from the very first when I idolize him.
Noong nakilala ko siya. I feel something I can't explain. The day he asked me to be his friend, nagdalawang-isip ako dahil nakaramdam ako ng takot. I'm scared to like him even more when we became friends. Scared to feel something for him more than just a friend. Scared to fall in love with him. And scared that I might be hurt because it's impossible that he would feel the same for me.
I know, this day would happen. Sino ba namang hindi mafafall sa isang Ricci Rivero. He's an ideal man. He has the looks and a good heart. Madali akong ma-fall, kaya ilag talaga ako sa mga lalaki. The last time kasi na nagkacrush ako, umiyak ako noong nalaman kong may girlfriend na siya. Haha. Kaya naman that time, I don't want to be friends with guys. I don't want to fall. Because everything that falls break.
That's why I need to prepare myself on that day when my heart will break. Because today, I realized that I already fall and falling more deeply with Ricci Paolu Uy Rivero.
