(after the typhoon our school was transferred to our teachers house which is right in front of Arman’s house).
Even when I was a kid, all of us were early riser kasi si lolo gusto nya kasabay nyang mag almusal lahat ng members ng family including yayas, drivers at lahat ng staff sa bahay – 2 dining tables in a big dining room. Dahil maaga kaming mag almusal parating isa ako sa pinaka maaga sa school. This Monday was not different – maaga kaming natapos ng almusal so pag katapos mag toothbrush eh diretso na sa school. Walking leisurely papunta sa bagong school (house ng teacher namin) for some reason I was excited, maybe because we have a new school or probably because makikita kong madalas si Arman. When I was near our school I was looking at Arman’s house and not the school hoping that I might see him. True enough nasa balkonahe sya sa second floor sa harap nang bahay nila at pagka-kita sa akin eh kumaway at sinigaw pangalan ko – Sydrey!!! Sydrey!!! Sabay sabing hintayin mo ako sa ibaba ng bahay. Maaga pa naman before the start of the class so takbo ako papunta sa bahay nila. Pareho kaming takbo na sabik-na sabik magkita ulit since simula nong magkahiwalay kami ng section eh bihira na kaming magkita kahit recess not to mention na matagal nawalan ng klase dahil sa bagyo. Dahil pareho kaming tumatakbo nong magkita kami eh bigla syang natapilok sa pagmamadali at bumagsak mismo sa harap ko at aksidenteng mukha nya eh sumalpok sa mukha ko. Nagkagulatan kami at gaya ng dating biruan sabay halik but this time hinalikan nya ako sa labi. It was just a smack pero ramdam kong namula ako sabay tulak sa kanya.
Ano ka ba Arman, bakit mo ako hinalikan sa labi? Eh ano naman diperensya nun para halik lang ang nasabi naman nya. Anway, after that parang walang nangyari at masaya kaming nagkwentuhan, sabi nga nya na nabalitaan nyang ang magiging school namin eh sa harap ng bahay nila at alam nyang pinaka-maaga akong pumapasok sa school so talagang gumising rin sya ng maaga at hinintay talaga akong dumating. We just chatted a few minutes kasi nakita na ako nong teacher namin at tinawag na ako para papasukin sa room at tulungan ko raw syang mag ayos ng ibang gamit at si Arman naman has to prepare himself kasi papasok rin sya sa school nya. His school remains the same kasi swerte na yong school building nila eh hindi nasira ng bagyo. Sinabi na lang ni Arman sa akin na after our classes eh hintayin ko sya sa bahay nila.
His parents are used to seeing me around their house kasi naglalaro ako duon with Arman not to mention that his dad is also my dentist. So ganun na nga ang nangyari, after my classes eh tumawid lang ako ng kalsada papunta sa bahay nila Arman. Upon entering their gate Arman’s mom saw me at tinawag ako at pina diretso ako sa komedor and ask their yaya to prepare meryenda for me. Ang sarap ng snack kasi favorite ko na turon with bits of pieces ng jackfruit sa loob with matching inumin na sago at gulaman. Sabi ni tita “Arman requested yaya to prepare your favorite snack kasi daraan ka nga daw dito after your class kasi pinapahintay ka nya.” Tita also told me that after having snack I can just go straight to Arman’s room and just wait for him. She also said to me that she asked their yaya to inform my mom that I will eat dinner in their house at ipapahatid na lang ako sa bahay after meal.
I finished 2 turons and a glass of sago and gulaman so after that pumunta na ako sa second floor at diretso sa room ni Arman. I always like his room being clean and organize kasi maalaga din sa bahay mom nya and everything has to be in order. I turned on the television and started switching channels trying to find a nice program. When nothing interest me and I guess I am pretty exhausted at dahil sa kabusugan din I decided to close my eyes knowing magigising naman ako pagdating ni Arman.
I was already in deep sleep ng magising ako sa halik ni Arman sa aking labi. Sabay bangon ako at sigaw – why are you kissing me again on the lips? Sinabihan agad nya akong huwag sumigaw kasi baka marinig kami at isiping nag-aaway. He continued talking at sinabi nyang he couldn’t explain to himself na 2 years ago nong nag bibiruan kami kissing sa cheeks hindi nya alam why he enjoyed kissing me more than anyone else at simula nong magkahiwalay kami ng section na mi-miss nya ako ng todo. In all honesty, I really miss him a lot as well simula nong hindi kami madalas magkasama but I never miss yong mga biruan namin na kissing on the cheeks.
He said, sa nangyari kaninang umaga na aksidenteng nag kiss kami sa lips hindi na raw sya naka concentrate buong araw sa school thinking of what had happened. He can’t explain daw what he feels but one thing he is sure, he would like to try it again touching his lips with mine kaya nong makita raw nya akong tulog na nakahiga sa kama nya dali-dali daw nyang ni lock yong room nya at lumapit sa akin. For a few minutes he said he was staring at my face looking how calmly I was that seems like I was dreaming. He slowly walked closer to me, sat beside the bed and started caressing my face so gently then touching my lips with one of his finger. Sa paglapat daw ng kanyang daliri sa aking mga labi lalong nag sumidhi ang kanyang pagnanasang madampiang muli ang aking mga labi kaya dahan-dahan syang yumuko at inilapat ang kanyang labi sa aking mga labi at duon na nga ako nagising.
