KABANATA 7

Pabalik na ko room when grade 9 student called me "Ate Candy".

I looked at her and smiled.

She run towards me,"Ate naintindihan mo po kung paano laruuin?"

I nodded.She ask me if I can explain it to her.Ipinaliwanag ko sa kaniya kung ano yung naintindihan ko.

After that she thanked me.I tell her it's my pleasure.

So I went to our classroom.

I am confused noong nakita ko na nakagilid yung mga upuan namin.

My classmates are in the center of the classroom standing,para silang sasayaw.

"Candy!",Lauren said.

"Anong meron?",pagtatakang tanong ko.

"We are preparing for interpretative dance.So it is okay if Harith will be your partern?",she added.

What?Si Harith?Bakit ang dami namang boys dito ah, bakit siya?

My widened but I nodded.

Why did I say yes?Hayst.

Lauren shouted "Harith okay lang daw kay Candy na ikaw yung partner niya"

So binaba ko na yung bag ko.Lumapit ako kay Lauren and I ask kung ano yung sasayawin namin.

Lauren is our choreographer every time we are preparing for dance competition.Wait, it is a competition?

"Gurl!competition ba 'to?",tanong ko kay Lauren.

"No,wala pang sinabi si ma'am",she answered.

I asked again "Anong sasayawin natin?"

Lauren respond "Love me Like you do"

What? Really bakit yon?Ang dami namang iba ei.

So Lauren signals that we have to arrange ourselves.

Ayoko mang lumapit kay Harith but I have too.So yon lumapit na ko.

Our speaker started playing love me like you do.

"Okay kailangan hawakan sa mukha yung partner niyo",sabi ni Lauren.

Ayoko nga.

Pinagtitinginan nila kami.May alam ba 'tong mga 'to? Nakatingin din si Reese and Brent looks like they speaking about us.Parang galit si Reese.

"Candy,hawakan mo na sa mukha si Harith!", Lauren said.

Our classmates are saying ayieeeee.Like what the heck!Mga maiissue.

So hinawakan ko na na siya sa mukha.I am not comfortable with it but I have no choice.

Naasar man ako wala kong magawa.They are comfortable with their partners and walang gusto makipagpalit.Hay naku ano ba yan!

While we are dancing, Harith speak up "Candy I am sorry".

I only smiled.It looks nothing happens.Nakatingin lang si Reese and Brent sa amin habang nag-uusap.Ano kayang pinag-uusapan ng dalawang 'to.

Crissel shouted "Hindi pa ba tapos yung practice?!pagod na ako!"

Wow! In fairness.Buti nga ikaw pagod lang.Ako di lang pagod naaasar den.

Sinabi ni Lauren na we can take our rest.

I went to Brent,"Bestiee anong pinag-usapan niyo ni Reese?",I asked.

Brent just told me "baliw wala,tinatanong niya lang kung kumusta ka na daw di na raw kasi nag-uusap simula ng umamin si Harith tsaka nagulat daw siya nung hindi siya yung partner mo."

Waaaa oo nga siya yung laging partner ko.I want to asked Lauren but pumasok si ma'am.

"Ako yung gumawa ng list para sa partners niyo.Lauren just follow it.Kaya kung may problema kayo sa partners you are freely to ask me.Pabalik na ko room when grade 9 student called me "Ate Candy".

I looked at her and smiled.

She run towards me,"Ate naintindihan mo po kung paano laruuin?"

I nodded.She ask me if I can explain it to her.Ipinaliwanag ko sa kaniya kung ano yung naintindihan ko.
