Yo!
I did one chapter of the story Black Book a while ago. I said i wont do it but i just had this itch. Because of that one chapter i already got hooked and i want to finish this story. Well perhaps i can take my time. I am sure a lot know about my two previous story characters. My very first character then his son. I made them stories when they started young.
Now here i am again with Venancio aka Vince. But this time of course i have applied the improvements i need to tell a story. When you hear black book almost everyone knows what its about. But in my story it is quite justified a bit LOL. This story may span into several books to make that justification though.
Anyway, i had this cute scene in mind that i could not shake of. Here is a simple glimpse in the story Orbits.
(Of course its in Tagalog or the right term should be Filipino)
Nakaupo sa isang shade sina Melissa at Nathaniel, inaantay nila humupa ang ulan at pinagmamasdan nila yung kapwa mag aaral nila na nagtatakbuhan sa campus. "Oh my God, yung ultimate crush ko" bigkas ng dalaga sabay kumapit sa braso ng binata at nagtitili.
"Ah excuse me what is that sound you make?" tanong ni Nathaniel. "Ikaw talaga ang KJ mo masyado. Natitili ako duh!" sumbat ni Melissa. "Oh forgive me, alien nga ako diba? So di ko alam yang human emotions na yan" sabi ng binata. "Ikaw talaga yan ka nanaman sa alien alien epek mo. As if naman totoong alien ka no" sabi ni Melissa.
"Alien naman ako, tignan mo ID ko, read my name it clearly says Alien" sabi ni Nathaniel. "Oo na oo na, e so what kasi pag natitili ako? As if naman di ka natitili pag nakikita mo crush mo no" sabi ng dalaga sabay tumingin sa malayo at tinaas ang kanyang dalawang kilay. Tinitigan siya ni Nathaniel at biglang tumili ang binata.
"Nang aasar ka ba?" tanong ng dalaga pero di parin siya nakatingin sa binata. Huminga ng malalim si Nathaniel at muling natili na parang bading kaya pagalit siyang tinignan ng dalaga. "Tigil mo nga yan. Oo na sorry naman. Antipatiko ka talagang alien ka" sabi ni Melissa. "Hey, di ka ba natitili pag nakikita mo ako?" tanong ni Nathaniel at natawa si Melissa. "Seryoso ako" sabi ng binata kaya nagkatitigan sila at wala man lang reaksyon ang dalaga. "Sorry wala e" sagot niya.
"I see, i now understand that emotion. You get out of control pag nakikita mo crush mo" sabi ni Nathaniel. "Exactly, para kang nakukuryente" sabi ni Melissa. "Okay, so tell me Melissa, is it normal for me to feel anger?" tanong ng binata. "Of course, lahat naman tayo nakakaramdam niyan no" sagot ng dalaga. "Yeah i know but bakit nararamdaman ko yon kanina nung natitili ka?" tanong ni Nathaniel at bigla sila nagkatitigan.
"You felt angry kanina?" tanong ni Melissa. "Look there he is again your crush" sabi ng binata at muling natili ang dalaga. "Yes Melissa i felt it again. Oh well i dont understand being human after all. Sige pasok na ako, see you soon Melissa. Take care of yourself" sabi ni Nathaniel. Natameme si Melissa at may konting kilig siyang naramdaman sa sinabi ng binata. "Pssst Alien!" sigaw niya at lumingon si Nathaniel. "What is it Melissa?" tanong ng binata.
"Mamaya pa naman klase mo ha" sabi ng dalaga. "I know kaya lang this feeling of anger is not nice at all. I read in a book that if you feel anger you should walk away" sabi ng binata. "If i say sorry will you stay?" tanong ng dalaga. "Hmmm the mere thought of it makes me feel better" sabi ng binata at bumalik sa tabi ng dalaga at naupo.
"Pero alam mo i think even men make tili" sabi ng binata. "Di niyo bagay" banat ng dalaga. "I know kaya nga they just smile it off e. They hold back their emotions" sabi ni Nathaniel. "Oh really? Dont tell me you read that in a book too" sabi ng dalaga. "No, its what i do when i see you. Being human is really complicated" sabi ng binata at biglang natili konti si Melissa.
"I dont see him around, why you make tili again? You trying to make me angry?" tanong ni Nathaniel. "Hindi sira, basta. Alam mo kakaiba ka. Masaya kang kasama" sabi ng dalaga. "Masarap ako" banat ng binata at bigla siya sinuntok sa braso ni Melissa. "Oh did i say something wrong? I read a book, sabi don masarap kang kasama. Oh i get it, if you translate sa english it will sound wrong. It goes like this, you are a tasty companion o kaya i like being with you because you are delicious. Tama dapat tagalog nalang so lets just go with masaya akong kasama" sabi ng binata at napahalakhak ang dalaga.
"Ei Melissa, masaya ako pag kasama ka. I know i can get irritating at times so can you please make tiis kasi i really like being with you. I cant explain why but im just happy with you around" sabi bigla ni Nathaniel at muling kinilig ang dalaga kaya napatingin nalang sa malayo at nilaro ang kanyang buhok. "Do you want to hang out during my break time?" tanong ng dalaga. "That would be great, only if you have no kasama. I dont want to take you away from your friends" sagot ng binata.
"Boring sila dont worry. Here is my schedule" sabi ni Melissa sabay inabot ang isang maliit na papel. "Okay, it seems we do have the same break times. Oh by the way you know ive seen human beings having this little gadgets where they communicate. I bought one yesterday you know" banat ng binata at muling natawa ang dalaga at naglabas ng ballpen at nagsulat sa maliit na papel. "Hay naku Alien kakaiba ka talaga. O ayan number ko" sabi niya at sobrang napangiti ang binata.
