Mag-log in"Good morning," Troy greeted the class. Medyo na-late siya today because they had a meeting earlier. May project daw kasi sila for next semester. I don't know how long that project will take. Hindi ko rin naman naitanong sa kanya if he's going to stay for another year here. Ang initial plan niya kasi ay isang taon lang magtuturo and then he'll begin med school. I don't know if there's any changes.
"Good morning, Sir!" Masiglang bati ng ilang kaklase ko. I saw Troy smiled at them and then he looked at me to give me a smile. Saglit lang 'yon kaya wala naman sigurong nakahalata.
"I'll just be quick today. I'll just give the instructions for your final project," he announced. The finals is fast approaching. Halos hindi ko na nga namalayan ang oras. It's really true time pass by so fast when you're having fun.
Dahil iniwasan ko ang manood ng anything romance, we ended up deciding to watch family movies. Una naming pinanood ang Four Sisters and a Wedding. We were having so much fun watching it. Si Troy ay unang beses niya pa lang iyong napapanood samantalang ako naman ay hindi ko na mabiling. Lagi kasi namin iyong pinapanood ng mga kapatid ko. It's the kind of movie that we can somehow relate to."Is your mom also like that?" Biglang tanong ni Troy. Nasa parte na kami ng pelikula na may confrontration na ang magkakapatid. Nagsimula na ring tumulo iyong luha ko. Tahimik lang akong naiiyak kaya hindi siguro napapansin ni Troy."I don't think so," I answered. Hindi naman ganoon si Mommy. Although I sometimes feel na may napapaburan sa amin minsan. Dalawa lang kasi sila ni Daddy, tatlo kami. I don't want my sisters to feel that way, so I always make sure I show them I love them both equally, as the eldest. "How about your mom?"I never met his mother. Minsan niya lang naik
Katatapos lang ng first semester kaya heto ako ngayon sa bahay, nakahiga lang. Troy's still a bit busy kasi tinatapos niya iyong mga grades. Deadline na daw kasi 'non sa susunod na araw kaya hindi pa kami nakakalabas.Ako lang ngayon ang nandito sa bahay. Si Love ay isinama ni Lay sa kanila. He lives outside the City and they'll be there for a week. Si Faith naman ay nasa beach ngayon kasama ang blocmates niya. Sem ender daw nila at sa isang araw pa ang uwi niya. Wala pa naman si Manang ngayon kasi umuwi din sa kanila.I'm so bored. Hindi ko alam kung anong gagawin ko. Sobra-sobra na din ang tulog na ginawa ko magmula nang matapos ang mga klase. Hindi ko naman ma-invite sina Lio at Clarisse. Nagsiuwi din kasi sa mga probinsya nila.I got out of bed and tried to look for something interesting to watch on TV. Pero maging iyon ay hindi nakatulong sa pagiging bored ko.Kinuha ko nalang iyong gitara ko at kumanta. I'm free to be as noisy as I want here at home
My sisters were cool about Troy and I's relationship. Ramdam kong kinakabahan sila sa amin, kahit naman ako eh. But I just don't know why I can't let him go. Hindi ko ata kaya. Minsan na nga lang akong magkagusto nang ganito, papalampasin ko pa?It was a weekend and we're just at home. Kaso itong mga kapatid ko ay naisipang i-invite si Troy sa bahay for dinner. Hindi nga sana ako papayag but they insisted. Gusto daw kasi nilang makausap.Nang sabihin ko kay Troy ang tungkol doon ay hindi rin siya nagdalawang-isip na pumayag. He said he's serious about me kaya wala raw dapat siyang ikatakot. Kung pwede nga lang daw na parents ko agad ang harapin niya kaso hindi niya magawa because I told him he can't. For now. Alam ko kasing magagalit ang parents ko kapag nalaman nila ang tungkol sa amin. Kung iisipin, marami nga talaga ang aa
I never wanted to keep anything from my friends. Ayokong bigyan sila ng rason para isipin nilang wala akong tiwala sa kanila. Sasabihin ko naman sa kanila. I was just trying to gather all my courage before doing so.There was something on Lio's face, like he's trying to dig something."Hope...""Lio, actually-""Are you together?" Putol niya sa sasabihin ko. Saglit akong yumuko to take a deep beath.He already caught me. What's the use of denying it?"Y-yes.""Hope, diba bawal 'yon?" He asked. Para siyang hindi makapaniwalang we're really together, th

"Why do you want to become a doctor?" Troy asked.It's Saturday and we're at a coffee shop outside the city. We know it's still risky to go out together but we're being extra careful. I'm actually extra paranoid. Nakakatakot na may makakilala sa amin. But it's harder if we can't spend time together."My grandpa was a doctor. He was a neurosurgeon," I replied. "He was one of the best. Ang dami niyang natulungan. Ang dami niyang buhay na nasagip. But while he was busy treating other people, no one knew he was sick."I can still remember how much I cried when we knew he was sick. We were still in High School back then. When we got home from school, we were surprised to see all our relatives. Lumabas na pala 'yong result ng biopsy ni Lolo. It was malignant. Everybody cried.
