Are you serious Ada? Are you really there at the Central Mindanao University you want to attend this Senior High?" Kuya asked me.
"Yes, there is nothing to lose no erase." I answered him.
"You passed the BSU Main again right? You'll just be there." He said while I smiled.
"Brother, it's my finals at CMU, I want to go to Senior High."
He accompanied me to pick up my papers at school to enroll next week at CMU, I'm sure I'll get there, besides, I'm not the only student there either, because I'm with my friends. And of course my older brother was also there, who was a badass.
"I'm just worried about you Ada, there are many more schools here in Bukidnon. You have many more to choose from."
"Brother, I know you're only concerned about me, but it's been a long time, okay, I'm still in Grade 8, I'm so young back then, and I've moved on, okay." I assured him. "And besides, you were there, right?"
"Yeah, but you know I'm not always there." he said coldly.
"Relax Brother, only a few people knew about my feelings before, and I know that they have moved on like me, so just calm down." I told him.
I've moved on. That's what I tell myself every day, that I'm happy, that I don't have any problems and I've forgotten about him.
So if he was there at CMU, who cares? I don't care about him anymore, and I never will.
Kuya was quietly driving our car home so instead of being bored, I just opened my messenger to check my friends' chats.
"Witch, are you ready to see your ex?" asked Della. So I immediately replied to him.
"Excuse me, I don't have an ex okay." I answered him.
I kept scrolling until I got to a page where the handsome hanks of Central Mindanao University were spotted. And because I was curious about who they were, I immediately looked at the photos and expected Kuya Evo to be the first. I just continued to look at the pictures until I got to the picture of the guy that Kuya was giving trouble to.
How are you?
"What are you looking at?" Kuya asked in surprise as I looked at him so I immediately clicked next on the photo that I stopped.
"Ada, what's that?" Kuya asked again.
"Kuya, do you know this?" I asked Kuya in surprise and I ignored his question.
"Who?"
"This." I answered him while showing a picture of the man I had been looking for for a long time and couldn't find.
"Tss, don't tell me it's love at first sight?" He asked coldly.
"Of course not, I'm just asking because he is the second one with the most reactions, after you." I refused.
Kuya doesn't know anything about the man who once troubled my mind, the strange man who I also searched for a long time, I thought he was a ghost at first and I was really going crazy with the sadness of that night, because we couldn't get any information about him from my friends, so I stopped looking for him. And in an unexpected opportunity, I will actually know that at CMU, he is also studying. Seriously? Is fate really playing with me?
"Tss, just make sure Ada, I don't want to know that you are crying again because of the boy." Kuya said seriously, raising my eyebrows.
"What ever Brother, I'm just asking, you're already talking a lot." I said to him.
"My schoolmate, you're my teammate and 4th year college like me."
"Same course?" I asked him.
"No! He's an engineering student."
"Name?"
"You, Ada, you said you don't have a crush."
"No way!"
"Hey, why do you have so many questions?" he asked, seemingly unconvinced by what I said.
"Just curious, Brother."
"Tss, just make sure baby, because I won't hesitate to beat up my friend when you get hurt again." He said that I just smiled.
Kuya is not showy, so I am glad to hear these words from him, words that I did not expect, words that are more pleasant to the ears.
"So what is his name Kuya?" I asked him again.
"Shh, Light Cedric Torres."
Light, I wonder if he has a girlfriend, but just by his face, he's clearly a playboy, tss.
"What's that smile, Ada? I'm telling you, it's a woman, you won't get anything out of it." Kuya suddenly said that I just smiled. So am I right? It's a playboy. Ts But he's cute, huh?
It wasn't long before we got to Kuya's house, he helped me down, and Mama immediately greeted us.
"Son, you're already there."
"I'll be upstairs first, Mom." I said goodbye to Mom as I went upstairs to my room, I didn't wait for her to answer because I was really excited to tell my friends what I found out. Thanks to my dearest brother. Evo.
To everyone:
Guys, I finally found him.
Stella:
Who?
Harold:
Who is that again?!
Olive:
Handsome?
Lelia:
Tsk, whoever that is, congratulations the princess noticed him.
Della:
I hope that's your forever. Anyway who?
Me:
Come on, that stranger in Session Road last year, the one I searched for for three months.
Della:
What the heck?! Seriously?! Where?
Lelia:
Are you sure it's not a ghost?
I just laugh at what my friends say, but I know I'm sure of this, I know he's not a ghost. That's why I made the right decision to study at CMU.
Light by the way, it's finally nice to see you again stranger Light, finally.
t's enrollment day. Sabay kaming pumunta ni Kuya Evo sa CMU para mag pa enroll, pero magkaiba kami ng building ni Kuya. Architecture ang kinuha niya, kaya medyo malayo ang building nila sa SHS. Tapos bukas pa ang schedule ng mga kaibigan ko na mag pa enroll, kaya si Kuya ang kasama ko ngayon.
Hanggang ngayon amaze na amaze pa rin ako sa ganda ng University na 'to, kahit pa sabihin na ilang beses na akong nakapunta dito dahil kay Kuya.
