Way 4.1

“If you are around here, thank you.”

Tugsh∼  (sound effect of a thing falling)

I heard a thing like a book drops. When I look at my right not far from my locker, nearby. I saw Allen and a girl.

“Are you alright?” Allen said, while helping the woman pick who drop books.

“Next time you should be careful, babe.” Allen said to the girl.

They look so sweet. The girl is beautiful. And the man is my ex.

I remember when Allen broke up with me, I asked him why he suddenly wanted t end things, and his answer is “I like someone else.”

Now that I saw and heard it, I understand now. The reason he broke up with me. Babe? She is beautiful, they look good together.

“I’m fine,” She said while they are standing, they already finish picking the books. She put it in her locker and close it, “Let’s go babe.”

“Alright, let’s go.” I saw how Allen putting his arm in her shoulder and they began walking. But when they are approaching in my direction, I know he saw me. I know our eyes met, I know. I’m not blind nor squint.

He remove his eyes from me and he talk happily with her girlfriend while they walk away to the corridor’s exit, with his arm in her shoulder. That’s why they will pass through in my direction.

“Why?” I heard him ask her.

“Because my cousin said it’s like that, his stubborn right? Hahaha!”

“Your right! Haha!” they are laughung, it looks like they’re topic is fun.

They approach me, ah no, they didn’t approach me, they just walk pass me. Why, what did I think, that they will stop? Allen will stop? Why will he? What am I to him that will make him stop? None, we don’t have any relationship.

But when they pass in my direction, I hear them happily talking and laughing. I’m jealous. Are we like that before? Maybe not, we don’t suit each other. They suit each other, really.

“I hope they are happy with each other.” I whispered to myself while wiping my dripping tears.

“You really won’t join me Kate?”

“I’m sorry Sena. I’m finishing my project because tomorrow is the deadline. I’m really sorry, I’ll get back to you tomorrow.”

“Okay, tomorrow. Bye.” I ended the call and continue to swinging lightly in the swing. I’m still in school though its already six pm, I’m here in the playground, there not much people here, they went home. Those with practices, meetings and clubs are the ones left. I don’t have a taekwando practice today, I just prefer to stay. I don’t like to go home yet. I’m still not feeling well, I would like to roam around but I don’t have a companion, Kate is busy.

I’m all alone. I feel sad.

When it’s this quiet, when I’m alone. I think of everything.

I felt a tear fell, I thought that my tears will continue to fell but I was distracted by a music.

♪♪ yuuuuuuh~~
tententen~~♪♪

The music is familiar to me, I know that this is the intro of Crank That of Soulja Boy.

~~♪♪ Soulja Boy Off In This Hoe
Watch me Crank And

Watch me Crank Dat Soulja Boy

Now, Watch me Yua….
(Crank Dat Soulja Boy)

Now, Watch me Yua….
(Crank Dat Soulja Boy) ~~♪♪

“OMG!” I was surprise when Trey suddenly come into my view holding a phone in his left hand while dancing the step of souljaboy. He raises his hands while his one foot is stepping to a side. He looks stupid, I laugh at what his doing.

“Yuuuuu ~~♪♪” he suddenly approach me, grab my hand and pull me up.

“O-oy!”

“Yuuuuu ~~♪♪ ♪♪ Souljaboy wamiyuuuu”  he is singing while dancing, “Join me.”

“What? I don’t want to, you dance on your own. You look stupid! HAHA! Why are you dancing out of the blue?”

“Yuuuuu ~~♪♪” He took my hand and raise it and moving to the beat to make me dance, ” let sing it like this, souljagirl! yuuuu~~ ~~♪♪ ♪♪ wamiwamiyuuu.”

“Hahaha! What are you doing!” but despite my protest I’m amused and in the end I dance with him. “Wami wami yuuuu ~~♪♪.”

We look like a fool there dancing, singing and laughing. Fortunately no one has pass the area, it will be really embarrassing if there is. When the song finish, We sat laughing in the swing.

“Oh, I’m exhausted. Hahah!” I’m still catching my breath while laughing.

“Your right, but it’s fun right?” even him, beside me on the other swing, he is also still laughing.

“Yes very much! We look crazy! Haha!”

“Only you! Haha!” Trey.

I hit him weakly in his arm in jest, “You! You are! You’re the one who just suddenly dance out of blue!”

“I saw you here being sentimental! You look emongoloid, it doesn’t suit you! Haha.”

         [Emongoloid – slang word for emo+mongoloid(down syndrome)]

“You look more mongoloid, haha, but thank you. I enjoy your crazinees! But why did you choose that song, too old-fashioned. Is that souljaboy in your phone? That was like 2000 something right? Your song is really old.”

“I’m sorry to you. I like this song. Wait,” He bend and pick a piece of paper on the ground, “Kidding aside, this looks like yours. It feel when we sat.”

I took it and look what is is, “Ah, this. Thank you, it’s good that you saw it right away. I don’t want to lose this.”

“What is that?” Ask’s Trey.

“This? A note. You see, there is someone who is bringing me notes. He said he will help me forget my ex boyfriend. Since then he sends notes, telling me ways to forget my ex boyfriend.”

“Really? Who is it? Then, is it effective?”

“I don’t know who, but yes it’s effective.”

“Really? Did you already forget about toot?”

“Somehow..” I answered softly.

“When someone if you forget a person, can ‘somehow’ be an answer? Like what is that? You somehow forgotten him? Is there an answer like that? Somehow forgotten?”

“I don’t care what you think, but I believe the notes, it says that there are 11 ways. I’m still on the third one and maybe when I follow it until the last ‘way’, I’m sure I’ll completely get over him.” I said.

“Oh. So what is written in the note?” ask Trey.

I showed him, “Indulge yourself.”

“Huh? Indulge yourself?Nosebleed, is there a tagalog translation?”

“You! It means–“

“I know, I know! I was just joking, of course I understand. So in what way or how will you indulge yourself?”

“Hmm. You know, your timing is right. Can you join me? Let’s go shopping.”
