~Do Kyungsoo~

We're supposed to be buddies. Dapat siya ang parati kong kasama, lalo na sa mga tasks. Oh well, i must admit he's still TALKING to me. But every time i bring up the topic about the kiss... he'll say things like:

"Uy! Nakita mo yun?"

"May nalimutan pala ako. I'll be back."

"I think we have to do this now. Right now."

"Let's eat first. I'm starving."

And most of all, he never meets my eyes and never wants to be alone with me. In other words, iniiwasan niya ako. Ayaw niyang kaming dalawa lang at saka lang siya babalik sa tent namin kapag alam niyang tulog na ako.

Mga past midnight na siguro siya dumarating.

Tss. Really. This guy.

"Jongin!" sigaw ko nang makita ko siyang kausap si Sehun. "Tulungan mo ako dito!" napangiti ako ng palihim nang agad siyang pumunta sakin. Half-running, half-walking.

Napatingin siya sa paligid ng tent. "What is it?" tanong niya. "What do you need?"

I smiled. "Help me." sabi ko. "Help me by answering my questions!"

Jongin rolled his eyes and stepped back. "Really Kyungsoo... anong kailangan mo?" he asked and this time, he looked up to my shoulders, still avoiding my gaze.

I shrugged. "I told you, just answer my question." mariin na sabi ko. Tinignan ko siya habang nakakunot noo. Why is he like this?

"I'm not answering any question." he said through gritted teeth. He scratched the back of his neck and shook his head slowly. "I told you."

I frowned at him. "You kissed me." mahina kong sabi. Napatingin din ako sa paligid at siniguradong walang nakakarinig samin. "Why did you do that?"

Jongin shook his head and looked down. And before i could even take another breath, he took another step back and walked away. I sighed and jogged to grab his arm. Hinila ko yung sleeve ng jacket niya pero hinila niya ito pabalik dahilan para mapa atras ako.

My foot hit a rock and i fell backwards. "Ah!" i gasped as my back felt the dirt.

"Kyungsoo!"

Hinila ni Jongin yung braso ko saka tinulungan akong tumayo. I groaned and closed my eyes. Nahilo ako doon ah.

"I'm sorry." nag-aalalalng sabi ni Jongin. "Are you alright? Saan ang masakit?" tanong niya saka nilibot ang tingin sa katawan ko.

I shook my head and brushed dirt from my jacket. "I'm fine." i mumbled and looked up at him.

"Are you sure?" he asked and he touched my face, brushing dirt from my cheeks. "I'm so sorry." he said again and met my eyes.

He looked at me and he's too concerned. I can see it.

And there's that feeling again. I felt all the blood leave my body and travel to my face. Nag-iinit nanaman yung mukha ko at pakiramdam ko, nanginginig ako. And most of all, my heart is beating like crazy.

This feeling, it's... ugh.

Jongin gazed into my eyes and very slowly, his eyes traveled to my lips. He looked at my lips like it's the most important thing to him right now. His eyes went slightly wider and he started to lean down. I felt my eyes starting to close and when his breath is all over my face already, he pulled away and stood up.

I sighed. "Kai..."

Jongin shook his head and ran his hand through his hair in frustration.

Then he left. Again.

After that encounter, hindi na ako pinapansin ni Jongin. Hanggang matapos ang hiking, hindi na niya ako kinausap ulit kung hindi kailangan. Mag-isa niyang inayos yung tent at hindi na din ako sinabayan sa pagbaba ng bundok.

He's acting like i don't exist. At all.

Ugh. Why do i even care?

"Something's up?" tanong ni Baek nang tumabi ako sakanya sa bus. Napatingin ako kay Chanyeol na uupo na sana sa inuupuan ko. Tinignan niya ako ng masama.

"Yeol," mahina kong sabi. "Please. Just let me have this seat for now."

Chanyeol rolled his eyes. "B-but—"

"It's fine, Yeol." Baekhyun said and touched Chanyeol's hand for a sec. "We have the dorm to ourselves, right?"

Chanyeol groaned and pleaded with Baek. But when he knew that he can't do anything now, he went to sit beside Jongin.

Napatingin ako ulit kay Baek saka siya nagtaas ng isang kilay. "So... ano ngang meron?" tanong niya ulit. Napatingin siya kay Jongin at kay Chanyeol. He looks really curious.

I bit my lip and looked down. Naisip ko yung mga nararamdaman ko. Pagbilis ng tibok ng puso, pag-init ng mukha, pamumula, panginginig pa. 

"I think..." mahina kong sabi saka napatingin kay Baekhyun. "M-may sakit ako. And it's... it's something serious?"

Baekhyun gasped and he covered his lips in shock. "What? Anong sakit?" he breathed. "Saka bakit? Paano mo nasabi?"

I shook my head slowly. "A-ano kasi... BASTA! Mahirap i-explain." napakamot ako ng ulo ko saka umiwas ng tingin. "Magpapatingin nalang ako sa doktor." dagdag ko pa at napahinga ng malalim.

Hinawakan ni Baek yung balikat ko sabay pat. 

Kinabukasan, bago pumasok, dumaan na din ako sa clinic. Kumatok ako sa pinto ng tatlong beses.

"Pasok!"

Binuksan ko yung pinto saka pumasok sa loob ng clinic. May nakita akong dalawang babaeng nag-uusap sa may desk. Isang naka lab coat, yung doctor, saka isang babaeng maganda na naka formal dress.

"Uh... Good morning. Nakaka-abala po ba ako, Doc?" tanong ko kay Doc Amber.

She smiled and shook her head. "No." sagot niya. "Patapos na din kaming mag-usap ni Miss Kim."

I nodded at the young woman and gave a small smile. "Good morning po." i greeted her.

She stood up and fixed the blazer of her dress. She gave me a small smile and nodded. "Are you a new student?" tanong niya saka nagtaas ng isang kilay.

"Opo." sagot ko.

She walked up to me and looked at me with those piercing eyes. "What's your name?" tanong niya.

"Do Kyungsoo po, Miss Kim."

She nodded and offered a hand. "I'm Kim Taeyeon." she said. "The dean of the academy. I hope you enjoy your stay here. Since our family own the school, i hope i'll hear good comments about it from new comers." she smiled wider.

I gasped. "Ma'am!" gulat na sabi ko saka kinuha yung kamay niya. "Sorry i didn't recognize you! Sorry po." i shook her hand and let go immediately.

She laughed softly. "It's okay." she said. "Natural lang yan sa first year students. Wait. Are you a first year?"

I smiled shyly and shook my head. "Senior high po. Sorry po ulit, Ma'am."

She patted my shoulder. "It's okay, it's okay." she repeated. "And i assume, you also know Kim Jongin?" she asked and her eyes started to become excited and curious at the same time.

I bit my lip and nodded once.

Kim Taeyeon laughed softly. "Are you his friend? He's also in senior high."

I nodded and looked down. "Room mate ko po siya, Ma'am." i answered. "And we're also friends... I guess?"

She smiled beautifully and nodded. "My brother's a cold person." she said. "I hope you'll get along."

My eyes went wide.

ANO RAW?
