Captivating my Heart

It's been a week since nagka-ayos kaming lahat, and I'm here still healing and also annoyed by this guy beside me, duhhh he's always talk about himself, as if I'm interested duhhh.

"Good morning kamahalan" ang aga aga, hinarap ko siya at inisnob "ito naman ang aga aga mong magsungit sige ka magkakaroon ka niyan ng tigyawat" tinignan ko siya ng masama pero ang loko tinawanan lang ako. "Stay away from me"

"Kamahalan Tara na at mahuhuli na tayo sa klase" hindi niya pinansin ang sinabi ko, hinawakan niya ako sa palapupsuhan ko at hinila ako.

"Bitawan mo nga ako" pilit kong hinahatak ang kamay ko pero ang higpit ng hawak niya, pero hindi naman yun masakit.

"Kamahalan kong bibitawan kita mahuhulog ka at may tendency na mafall ka at walang sumalo sayo" napataas ang kilay ko dahil sa sinabi niya, what does he mean?

"What do you mean by that hah" I don't get him.

"Ah wala wala tara na at baka mahuli na tayo" hinayaan ko nalang siya sa paghatak sakin, tulad nga ng sabi ko wala na akong magagawa.

"Kyahhhhh" nagulat kami dahil sa pagtili na yun.

"Sino yun" sabi niya.

"Malay ko"

"Kyahhhhh bagay sila" napatingin ako sa unahan namin may mga babaeng tumitili, at Sino namang bagay aber?

"Oo nga, ang cute nilang tignan" sino ba kasing tinutukoy nila? At bakit nakatingin sila samin?

"Ahm excuse me mga miss bakit kayo tumitili?" And for the first time may nagawa siyang maayos, napatirik ang mga mata ko at hinawi ang buhok ko palikod.

"Ahm Benedict may tanong ako" sabi ng isang babae na maikli ang buhok, hanggang balikat yun.

"Ano yun?" Tanong niya, his still holding my hand but nasa likod niya ako.

"Kayo ba ni princess?" Tanong niya, sooo tumitili siya for that reason? Hindi ba niya alam na nakakasira siya ng araw duhhhh.

"Ahm" tumingin siya sakin, tumingin ako sakanya na taas ang kilay.

"What?" Umiling lang siya at ngumiti, bumalik ang tingin niya sa mga babaeng nasa unahan namin.

"Ahehehe mauna na kami at mahuhuli na kami ni kamahalan sa klase" hinatak na niya ako at medyo bumilis na din ang lakad namin, so nagmadali siya para iwasan ang tanong na yun, it's simple to answer, bakit hindi niya sinabing no or hindi, duhhhhh it's just simple like that. Nakarating kami sa pintuan room na wala siyang imik, bigla na lang niya akong binitawan at nauna na siyang pumasok, I don't know but I feel a little bit pain in my chest, napatulala nalang ako dun. "Hey Zeindy bakit nasa labas ka pa?" napatingin ako sa likod ko, bigla ko nalang siyang niyakap, I don't know why, basta I need it "Zeindy?"

"Just a minute Zin, I need it" niyakap na din niya ako, I want to cry also but I stop it.

"You want to talk?" Tanong niya "may problema ba sa bahay niyo or what?"

"Are you sure?" bumitaw siya sa pagkakayakap sakin at tinignan ako.

"Yes I'm sure hime" sagot niya, ngumiti siya kaya napangiti ako "then let's go" he gently touch my hand and pull me, naglakad kami pababa sa hagdan, I don't know saan kami mag-uusap, nakarating kami sa tambayan "have a sit" bumitaw na ako sakanya at naupo kami sa bench, hinarap niya ako "now what's the matter?"

"Actually Zin I don't know" tinitigan ko siya sa mata.

"But it's look like you have" huminga siya ng malalim "I know nasa part ka pa ng healing, but always remember na nandito lang ako para sayo" ngumiti ako.

"I know Zin"

"I'm not a right man for you, I'm not the one who make you happy, I'm not the person who always stay by your side, you can find a better man than me, a man who always make you smile, a man who can find ways to stay at your side, a man who can sacrifice all he has to save you" sabi niya, napangiti ako ng malaki dahil dun "Zeindy" hinawakan niya ang kamay ko "please don't close your heart, open it for the man who want you to be with, hindi porket nasaktan ka ng isang beses isasara mo na yan, give others a chance and also give yourself a chance to be happy" gusto ko man ng maiyak dahil sa mga sinasabi niya pero pinipigilan ko.

"I will try Zin, mahirap pa dahil you know, I'm in healing part, ayokong mangako, because those promises sometimes broke"

"I know hime, I'm just saying it, because I feel something" huh? pinagsasabi niya.

"Feel something?"

"Yeps, kay Benedict, hindi ka nakikipag close sa ibang tao maliban samin then look what I've seen yesterday, both of you are having fun" napataas ang kilay ko dahil sa sinabi niya. "Having fun hah! Duhhhh he's so annoying, he always making fun of me" I cross my arms.

"Dun din ang punta no'n, nagsisimula sa away at nagtatapos sa pagmamahalan" I rolled my eyes.

"Whatever, and I don't like him"

"For now, but destiny will play unconditional" so corny.

"Zin I know naman, but kailan ka pa naging corny" namiwang ako at tinignan siya na naniningkit ang mga mata.

"What? That's not corny, that's the truth"

"Whatever"

"Ahm by the way hindi makakapasok si Kal at Cai"

"What? Why? Hindi sila nagsabi sakin"

"Nakasalubong ko sila kanina papasok nako at sila palabas naka uniform na sila"

"Bakit naman sila umalis basta basta?" Tanong ko.

"May pinaayos ang parents nila, need daw ASAP"

"Edi ako lang mag-isa" bumusangot ako, sino ng kausap ko dun?

"Don't worry nakausap ko na si Benedict and ask him na bantayan ka at wag pabayaan and he say yes" tsk, the annoying.

"Bakit sakanya, no I won't, kaya ko mag-isa"

"Are you sure?"

"Y-yeah, I am" sh*t nautal pa.

"if you say so" he just shrugged.

"Zin!"

"What?" Tinignan ko siya ng masama pero tinawanan lang niya ako.

"Zin naman eh, nang-aasar ka nanaman" I pouted.

"I'm just teasing you, masyado ka kasing malungkot lately, and I know ako ang may gawa no'n" Zin, I look at him and my eye get teary "I promise na hindi kita sasaktan at paiiyakan but look what I've done. I give you pain, tears and heart break" he looks at the sky "I'm not a man, I'm just a boy who cannot protect his love ones" then he looks at me.

"No Zin, you're a man but not for me, you can also protect me whenever you want, actually you always do it for me" I smile genuinely, he did it too.

"Thank you"

"For what?"

"For the things you do to me" I breathe in and out.

"Zin wala akong ginagawa, ikaw pa nga ang laging nagtatangol at nagliligtas sakin" I said. That's the truth, he always protects me and rescue me for all the problems came on me.

"Hindi mo napapansin but may nagagawa ka na nagpapatino saming tatlo, you do a lot on us"

"Zin naman eh pina-iiyak mo ko" he just chuckled.

"Tara na nga, ang drama na natin dito" lumakad na kami pabalik sa building "lunch again with us?" "Why not"

"Sama mo na din si Benedict" nasa tapat na kami ng room ko.

"Oh sure, pano ba yan pasok nako" sabi ko, he kiss me at my cheeks.

"Pasok kana" pumasok nako at lahat sila nakatingin sakin.

"Good Morning Sir I'm sorry, I'm late"

"Where have you been Ms. Scott?"

"I'm talking to Mr. Black, Sir"

"About what?"

"About Mr. Madista and Mr. Dreon, he said na hindi po sila makakapasok dahil po may emergency sila"

"Oh thank you for that but next time don't be late"

"Yes Sir"

"Have a sit" tumango ako kay Sir at naupo na sa upuan ko, hindi ko nililingon ang katabi ko pero bakit ang weird ng atmosphere, I don't know, all I need to do is focus to my study.
