WHIRLWIND OF EMOTIONS (ENGINEER SERIES #1)

Chapter 35

"Okay, I'll go now," he said and kissed my forehead.

"Okay, ingat ka," I tapped his back and hand his coat placed above the table near me.

Nang maka-alis siya, doon ko lang naramdaman ang bigat ng pakiramdam. Mahal ko na ata siya kaya ganito ang naramdaman ko. Really? I don't know that I can still love. I took all the leftovers and put them at the table, and covered it. Nagtaka rin ako dahil hindi dumating ang Grab Food ni Abi, maybe she canceled it.

I took a bath and did my skin care routine, grabe may isang buwan na ata akong hindi nakapag-skin care. Busy at school. I took my laptop to the side and started to make a design plan for my project for next week. It took me two and half an hour before finishing the up touches for the plan. I was ready to sleep when my phone beeped.

From: Rago

Goodnight.

I smiled. A simple text can make me lose my sanity, damn! I was smiling while typing some words that I can send him. Ilang beses ko pang inayos at binura, you must text as a friend din, Emet.

To: Rago

Don't miss me too much, as a friend. Goodnight :)

I bit my lips forcing my urging wide smile not to burst. I covered my face with a throw pillow. Kinikilig parin ako sakanya kahit na nasasaktan ako sa mga narinig ko kanina.

How can he make me smile and hurt me at the same time?

From: Rago

Asa. Sleep now.

The next morning came, I was at school. Nothing less or much happened, the lesson came smoothly. My blockmates were adjusting about me and Abi, some tried to open a conversation with me, but I'm happy and contented having Esther, Abi, and the squad.

I forgave all those people who bullied me, especially Abi. Actually, hindi naman ako nagalit. I never engage in a fight because it is not necessarily to fight back. Violence was never an answer. I was busy preparing for the exams next week, I am here at the library, scanning my notes and facing my laptop for more information.

"I missed you!" Esther hugged me.

I smiled at her. "Na-miss din kita, saan ka ba nanggaling?"

I saw a glimpse of tension in her face but it suddenly faded away. She smiled at me and gave me a peck on my cheeks.

"Busy lang sa school, alam mo na malapit na ang exams. Sasakit na naman ulo ko," she said, in a jolly tone.
