7 pm na din at may mga bisita pa rin sa baba. Balak pa ba nilang makipag dinner dito? Nakaupo ako sa terrace ng kwarto ni Alvie. Nasabi ko na ba? Mayaman sila. Nasa America kasi yung papa nya.

Napatingin ako sa garden nila. Nandun si Phoenix, kasama nung mga barkada nya. Nag iinuman yata.

"Sol."

Napalingon ako sa nagsalita.

Si Alvie lang pala. Mukha siyang tanga kasi ngingiti-ngiti siya na parang nakasinghot ng sampung katol.

"Baliw ka?" I asked her.

"Oo bes! Baliw na baliw!” sabay tawa pa niya, “Ang gwapo talaga nya~"

Napakunot yung noo ko. Sino na naman ba bukod sa BTS, EXO, Bigbang, Seventeen, Astro at iba pang boy group?

"Si Chalk! May gas!"

"Nasaan yung gas? Inlab ka sa chalk bes?"

Sinamaan ako ng tingin ni Alvie.

"Ang jeje mo bes. Tss. Ayun oh! Yung gwapong kasama ni Phoenix!" kilig na kilig pa siya niyan.

Napatingin naman ako sa tinuturo nya. May tatlo pa kasing kasama si Pheonix.

"Asan? Wala namang gwapo."

"Grabe bes. Nakasakit mong magsalita. Psh. Ayun oh, yung naka long sleeves na bulaklakin."

Tinuro pa ni Alvie gamit yung ruler na ewan ko kung saan niya nakuha kaya napatingin sa pwesto namin sina Pheonix.

"HI ALVIE!" sigaw nung naka long sleeves na sinasabi niya.

Bigla naman siyang nanigas sa kinatatayuan niya kaya natawa nalang ako.

"Ang jeje mo bes." pang aasar ko sa kanya kaya natawa nalang din sya.

"Me is so nikikilig~"

Natawa ako sa kabaliwan nya kaya binato ko siya nung kinakain naming chips.

"Pero seryoso bes, paano kayo nagkakilala ng pinsan ko?"

"Natatandaan mo nung nag-iinarte  si Ronan sa rooftop? Nung pababa ako, nagkabungguan kami tapos nagkapalit kami ng phone. Ayun."

"Tapos?" she asked, her face so near to me I almost flicked her forhead using the ruler she’s holding a while ago.

"Tapos yun. Hindi ko naman talaga alam yung pangalan niya. Then, last night, naglalakad ako papunta sa 7/11, nakasabay ko siya, sabi niya may alam daw siyang noodles resto kaya dun kami kumain. Nilibre nya ako."

"WHAT?! NILIBRE KA NYA?! ANG UNFAIR!"

"Bakit naman? Alangan namang ako yung manlibre sa kanya."

"PABO!-"

"MAKA-PABO HUH!"

"HEHE. Eh kasi naman, buti ka pa, nilibre nya, samantalang ako, 2 years na kaming magkasama, ni minsan ‘di pa nya ako nilibre. Ang kuripot kaya nun. Tss. Tsaka buti kinausap ka nya?"

"Bakit? Di naman ako badbreath ah? Grabe 'to."

"Snob kaya ‘yun. Ni hindi nga makausap ng matino yan eh. Sobrang seryoso lagi."

"Weh? Don't me nga bes. Ang daldal kaya nya. Tss. Ang galing pang mang asar."

I roll my eyes in exasperation. Is she kidding me? Yabang kaya nung ungas na ‘yun.

----

"Bes, nagugutom ako."

Tiningnan lang ako ni Alvie. Alas onse na din ng gabi. Busy kaming pareho sa pag spazz kaya ‘di pa kami kumakain. Busog kasi kami kanina.

"Wala sa akin yung kaldero bes. Maghanap ka ng malalamon sa baba. Psh."

Binato ko siya ng unan. Bastos talaga 'tong babaeng 'to. Lumabas ako ng kwarto nya tsaka dumiretso sa kusina.

Tulog na yung mga tao kasi nakapatay na lahat yung ilaw.

Bubuksan ko na sana yung ilaw pero may nakita akong nakaupo sa may lamesa. Bigla akong kinilabutan. May multo ba sa bahay nila?

Pero gutom talaga ako kaya dumiretso pa din ako. Binuksan ko yung ilaw.

"Ahhhh!"

"AHHHHH! Mommy!”

Sabay naming sigaw nung multo. Nakarinig kami ng footsteps galing sa taas. Nakatakip pa din yung mukha ko. Ayoko ng ganito. Minsan na nga lang ako makitulog sa iba ganito pa mararanasan ko.

"WHAT HAPPENED? WHY ARE YOU SHOUTING?!" nag aalalang tanong ng mama ni Alvie.

"Tss."

Natawa si Alvie kaya napatingin kaming lahat sa kanya. Ang abnormal naman kasi netong Pheonix na 'to. Nakaupo siya sa mesa habang umiinom ng gatas. Bakit kasi nakapatay yung ilaw? Baliw ba sya?

"I thought she's a ghost." mahinang sabi nya.

Natawa din yung mama ni Alvie.

"Ang panget mo kasi bes. Yan tuloy."

"Magsitulog na kayo pagkatapos nyo diyan okay? Goodnight." Iiling-iling na sabi ng mama niya tsaka umalis.

"Bakit kasi may ganyan kayo sa mukha?"  sabay turo pa niya sa aming dalawa ni Alvie.

"Face mask ‘yan! Parang ikaw ‘di naglalagay neto ah. Sipain kita diyan eh." sabi sa kanya ni Alvie.

Ang weird talaga ng magpinsang 'to. Sumasakit tuloy yung utak ko. Tsk.

××××××××

May mga bagay lang talaga na kahit anong gawin nating paghabol ay hindi na natin maabutan pa.

Kung bakit naman kasi tinanghali ako ng gising. Ayan tuloy, late ako sa flag ceremony. Monday pa naman ngayon. May rule pa naman sa University namin na sasayaw sa harapan ng lahat ng estudyante ang mga late whether you like it or you like it.

Late na kasing dumating sina Mommy at Daddy kaya na-late din ako ng tulog. Tinulungan ko pa silang ayusin yung mga paper works nila at inabot kami ng alas-dos ng madaling araw.

Hindi,  joke lang. Nanood kasi talaga ako ng mga bagong MV ng EXO, Seoul Station at Train to Busan kaya ngayon, dinaig ko pa yung zombie sa pagka-bangag ko.

"ID mo." napasimangot nalang ako sa menopausal naming guard.

Yung totoo kuya? Sayo nanggaling yung virus kaya naging zombie yung mga tao no?

I didn’t say that out loud, of course but I almost laughed the guard glared at me.Natatawa nga ako sa ginawa ko kaninang madaling-araw. Tinawagan ko kasi si Kuya.

"Kuya~!"

(Ano na naman Sol? Ang aga-aga huh! Bakit gising ka na?) antok na antok na tanong nya.

"Okay ka lang?" nag aalalang tanong ko.

(Yeah. Why?)

"Wala naman sinisigurado ko lang na ‘di ka na-infect nung virus sa Train to Busa-"

"SOL! IT'S ALREADY 2:07 IN THE MORNING THERE, FOR PETE'S SAKE! HINDI KA PA NATUTULOG ‘NO?! SLEEP NOW! THIS KID. UGH. I'M GOING TO TELL MOM TO CAPTURE YOUR GADGE-)

"JOKE LANG KUYA! BYE! LABYU!"

"Miss. Yung ID mo. Anong nakakatawa?"

Napaismid nalang ako sa kasungitan netong matandang bakulaw na 'to. Inis kong inabot sa kanya yung ID ko. Bahala na si Batman mamaya. Pinapunta ako sa back stage. Kainis talaga.

Maya-maya pa, may pumasok din na lalake sa back stage.

"Pheonix?"

Mukhang puyat din sIya. Gulo-gulo yung buhok nya at mukhang kagigising lang. Umupo sya sa tabi ko tsaka tiningnan ako na parang tinubuan ako ng dalawang ulo.

"Kurutin mo nga ako." Sabi niya.

Huh?

"Bakit?"  nagtatakang tanong ko.

"Para masaya." Seryosong sagot din niya.

Kumunot yung noo ko.

Ano daw? Abnormal ba sya?

"Para magising ako. Dali naARAY~! ANG SAKIT NAMAN!"

"SABI MO KURUTIN KITA?!"

"Ang sakit naman kasi. Tss. Thank you, ayan gising na ako."

Napailing nalang ako. Baliw talaga. He's wearing a navy blue sweat shirt, ripped jeans and converse with matching beanie and nerdy glasses. Pareho pala kami. Apple green naman yung damit ko.

"…and let's give these two students from Teacher Ed department and BSBA department a round of applause ... the most punctual students today... Eirrie Solleigh Santos and Phoenix Glenn Yu!" the speaker sarcastically said.

Tumayo kami ni Phoenix tsaka nagpunta sa stage. Sobrang daming tao. Damn. What to do? I don't even know how to dance.

Binigay ni Phoenix yung phone nya sa nag aassist ng sound system tsaka bumalik sa pwesto ko.

"Bang Bang Bang. Kaya ba?" he asked me.

"Bigbang?!"

Tumango sya. Biglang nagplay yung kanta kaya hinila niya ako sa gitna. Biglang nagsigawan yung mga tao. I even saw Alvie at the crowd cheering us.

Wala naman akong nagawa kundi sumabay nalang. Buti nalang at alam ko yung step. Ugh. Lamunin ka na sana ng lupa Solleigh. Nakakahiya ka.

I noticed how many girls cheered for him. Wow. Sya na kasi yuny gwapong talented. Ais. Hiyang-hiya ako sa pinag gagagawa ko. I swear to River Styx that I won’t be late anymore.

"Isa pa! Isa pa!" the crowd shouted nung matapos kaming sumayaw. Hingal na hingal kaming pareho.

"Very good performance Mr. Yu and Ms. Santos." our humanities prof said.

Ngumiti lang kaming pareho ni Phoenix bago umalis. Dumiretso na siya sa mga classmate niya, samantalang si Alvie naman, sinalubong ako ng hampas sa balikat.

"Kayo huh~" nakadrugs na naman ba 'tong babaeng 'to?

"Bakit na naman? Tss."

Magsasalita pa sana siya pero biglang lumapit si Chalk sa amin.

"Hi Alvie! Hi Sol! Err, gusto nyong sumali sa group?"

Nagkatinginan kami ni Alvie. Di kami sumasali sa frat! Siraulo ba 'to?!

"Sali kayo sa group namin. Magagaling naman kayong sumayaw eh. We think it's the time para magkaroon naman ng girls sa amin. Just call Phoenix kung gusto niyo. See you!"

Halos mapunit naman yung suot ko dahil sa higpit ng pagkaka-kapit ni Alvie. Nabaliw na naman sya. Tss.

"Saang group daw?"

"WAAH~ BES! SALI TAYO! PANAHON NA PARA MAGKASAMA KAMI NI POREBER KO~"

Pinitik ko sa noo si Alvie.

"Anong group ba?" ulit kong tanong.

"Walang kwenta ka talaga."

I glared at her. Maka-walang kwenta naman 'to, as if may halaga yung buhay nya.

"Anong group nga yun?"

"DDG nga."

"Anong DDG?"

"Basta! Sasali tayo. Tatawagan ko na mamaya si Phoenix. Tara na, late na tayo!"

Wala akong naintindihan sa sinabi ni Alvie at mas lalong hindi ko naintindihan si Chalk. Anong klaseng tao ba ang mga nakapalibot sa akin?

    Phoenix"Come on, man! Put yourself together, will you?" Sujin tapped my shoulder.They've been cheering me up since the night I came back to the dorm. I ignored him so he just sit next to me. We're currently preparing for a concert."What's going on?" I asked, as soon as I arrived in the practice room."The CEO wants to talk to you." Less said.They all look bothered. I took a deep breath and went straight to our manager's office.He's sitting snugly on his swivel chair, waiting for me. Eunice is also here. I heave a sigh in annoyance as soon as I approach them."Take a seat," he ordered."I prefer standing," I answered."I told you to take a seat," he ordered sternly.I do as he says. I always do what he says.Eunice is fidgeting in her seat. She's staring

    Sol"I thought you and Phoenix were okay now?"I look at mommy who's currently lying on the couch while watching TV. I visited their house because I'm bored.The kids are not there because they are still in school. Zeck and his wife are in the shop. Mama was left alone.I was washing the dishes in the kitchen but he called me. She pointed to the TV."Switch's leader, Phoenix Yu rumored dating with Singer Eunice Park"I laughed a little. She knows that we're okay again but I guess I did the wrong decision. She's expecting Glenn and me to get along. It was also been a few weeks ago when we last met ... when I was left alone in his house."We're okay, Ma. I didn't say that we're back together."I went back to the kitchen and continued what I was doing. I felt Mom's presence but I remained silent."You still love him, don't

  • My Brightest Star   XXIV. No? No.

    PhoenixShe's back to her work when I finished taking a shower. She's not wearing any make-up yet she looks really gorgeous with her eyeglasses."Let's go."This caught her attention. Her brow creased, she looks at me like I've grown two heads."Where?""Uh, outside?"She stared at me then continued what she was doing. I sat next to her but she closed his laptop."You're not allowed to take a glance at it. You didn't even pay for the book you took."I laughed at her reaction. Speaking of that book ... it perhaps reminds me of what happened between us.The girl's sufferings after the guy left her and chose his dreams over her. How her life shattered after he walked out of her life without a word. How he stole her heart and break it into a million pieces. How her world collided and how she tries to put back every piece.As time goes by,

    Sol"Sol?"I lost count of how many times have I heave a sigh. I know I should not expect but the pain is still there."SOL!""Oh, lisp!"Chan glared at me. I ignored him. I continued to draw even though I knew he looked bad on me.It's been a month since Phoenix had his unplanned visit. Since then, I have heard nothing from him. They are busy again on the world tour.I've seen in their schedule that they're in China today (don't think that I'm stalking him, it just happened that I'm up the net when I saw their schedule)."Are you okay, Sol? You've been spacing out the whole time.""I'm just tired.""You're doing nothing and yet you're tired?"I did not answer. It's tiring to wait for nothing. Wait. Who's waiting for who?I stood up and dragged Chan out. If I stay inside my house longer - I will go reall

  • My Brightest Star   XXII. A Day with You

    PhoenixThe light coming from the window woke me up. I tried to open my eyes but shut it again when the light almost blinded me.I smell something that made my stomach grumble but I lay still on the bed.I have never been comfortable like this for a long time. I glance at the wall clock and the small hand hits 10. A curve lifts up on both sides of my mouth. At least she didn't kick me out during the dawn.I put on my clothes before getting out of the room. I found her sitting in the kitchen with a book in her hand. I captured a photo of her before approaching her."Good morning." I beamed at her but she didn't even bother removing her eyes on her book."Good morning." she finally said as soon as she finished the last page of the book she's reading.She prepared the meal while I took the book she's reading a while ago.She just kept quiet while we ate. She hardly even look

    SolIt's been exactly three months since the day the bastard left. I should have not trusted him.I should not hope that he's really sincere when he says he wanted to find me.Who am I kidding?He loves his career pretty much sure than he loves anything and everyone else.I am indeed a fool for thinking he'll make his promises but who am I kidding? Pheonix Glenn will always be Pheonix Glenn. I don't even know why I trusted him. I don't even know why I believe him when he said he'll make it up to me.His group is on the news so I turned off the TV. It's almost midnight and I'm stuck in my new house doing nothing, waiting for my ideas to come pouring down.Mom cried really hard when she learned that I'm moving out. I feel bad for not telling her immediately but Zeck comforts me by telling me she'll understand and I'm too old and I can decide on my own.&
