Capítulo Tres

Chapter Three

I really love the view outside of my window, at least I can see what is like outside my window, green and tall trees and birds fly freely but other than that what I really love to see is the man outside of his terrace talking to his phone. I think I have a crush on him tho he looks a bit old for me but im old enough right? Well, when I saw myself in the mirror I look like a grown woman naman na e so having a crush on him is not a bad thing right?

Its just that he is soooo handsome and he looks so serious and I really love it. Im really curious about him the time I woke up and I saw him after my recovery, I wanna know what is name is, his age, I wanna know our age gap but I believe na age doesn't matter, I also wanna know kung hanggang saan ako sakanya kasi he looks so tall. Sa ilang araw kong pagoobserba sakanya I already know his schedule kung kialan sya lalabas sa terrace nya. Every morning, he'll drink coffee outside, then around 4 to 5 pm tatambay ulit sya and every night he would go outside for a dip, hindi man lang sya nilalamig? Its cold kaya everynight. Then sometimes lalabas sya to answer a phone call just like now.

I am seating like an Indian in front of my window then I rested my chin in there and look at him intently, he is very hansome, so good looking, nakakainggit. Hindi yata akong magsasawang sabihin na ang gwapo nya because the word 'handsome / gorgeous' ay kulang para idescribe how good looking he is.

He's tall and lean, every night I could witness how gorgeous his body is because he's only using his boxers when swimming! Oh my virgin eyes. He have this long hair hanggang balikat nya.

How I wish that he would look at my way I almost fell on my seat when my thought was answered. He looked on my way! OMY! Madali akong umupo ng maayos and took my book na nasa lap ko and tinakpan ko ang mukha ko gamit and libro and pretended that I am reading. Omy Omy god! He looked at me! My heart is going crazy! I can't stop myself from smiling! He rarely looks at this side; he rarely looks at me!

Naghintay ulit ako ng ilang segundo bago dahan dahang ibaba ang libro to look his way but to my surprise nakatingin aprin sya sa akin while talking to his phone! Why is he looking this way! I covered my whole face again. When I tried to look at his way again ay nakatalikod na sya sa akin at papasok na sa kwarto. Sayang, I still wanna look at him. I sighed.

Babasahin ko nalang tong libro ko, nang iangat ko ang libro para basahin baliktad pala yon! Nakakahiya!

Hindi naman ata nya napansin nya yon diba? I mean, yes, our houses are close but not close enough para Makita nya ang nakasulat sa cover page ng libro at malamang baliktad yun diba?

If not, it'll be embarrassing! Halatang halata ako kung ganon! Mahina akong napaimpit dahil sa nanggigil sa sarili.

I stopped when Jaxen went closer to me. He just looked at me for a second at tumalikod na. Problema non?

Nagkibit balikat nalang ako sakanya.

I looked outside my window again and to my surprise he was looking at me, again! His serious look was gone when he smiled at my way and waved at me! Oh my god! Im hyperventilating, he just smiled at me! I awkwardly smiled and waved back. Hindi naman ata halatang kinakabahan ako diba? But I got confused when he was pointing at me?

I pointed myself and looked at him with a question look. But he shook his head, eh ano ang tinuturo nya? I looked at him again, nakanguso sya habang may tinuturo parin. Huh?

That's when I realized, he's pointing down. Looked down in my window and there I saw a piece of paper. Whats this?

I took the paper and there was something written in there.

"You're staring at me. "

That's what written in there! Halata ba talaga ako?! Nakakahiya! It's not even a question.

I looked at him and I can see him looking at me while smiling playfully. I smiled awkwardly at him, again. And make a wait sign at him using my left hand. Pumunta akong study table ko at naghanap ng papel na pwede kong sulatan. May nakita akong plane bond paper pero pangit naman ata kung yun ang gamitin ko diba? mAsyadong plane at malaki. May sticky not ako ditto with different collors pero pangit rin kasi masyadong sticky? Wala man lang akong magandang papel dito? Kung pupuunit rin ako sa isa sa mga notebook ko dito and informal tignan! Baka maturn off sya sakin noh, I need to give a good impression.

"Jaxen, wala ba akong papel dito na maganda? Para maasulatan ko ng note. Something nice?"

Jaxen looked at my direction at may nilabas sya mula sa kamay na note pad. Namula ako nang nakita ko kung ano ang nilabas nya. He just handed me a pink note pad with heart shape! This robot!

"Not that! That's.. that's too much and embarrassing! What if he'll give a different meaning with that!" at paanong may ganyan sya sa loob ng katawan nya!

I took the notepad na una kong nakita. Bahala na. wala ito masyadong design but this looks good, it looks old but the paper is not only the design and at the bottom my name is printed over there.

"Im not."

Yan lang ang sinulat ko, di ko kasi alam kung ano pa ang isusulat ko, ayaw ko rin naman magfeeling close masyodo at magsulat ng kung ano.

Nakakahiya yung penmanship ko, ang ganda nung sakanya samantala yung akin parang pang bata. Nakakahiya.

Bumalik ako sa bintana para sana ipadala sakanya ang reply ko pero nang tignan ko ang Balcony wala na sya don. Napasimangot ako, sabagay we're not close para hintayin nya ang reply ko sa sulat nya and the hell he cares about my reply.

Tumalikod nalang ako papasok sa kwarto ko, wala nanaman sya e.

"Where are you going?" I froze when I heard that soft voice na nanggaling sa likod ko. Who just spoke? Is that a ghost? Oh god!

Dahan dahan akong lumingon and there I saw a drone? I think and not a ghost. Its pretty small to call a drone and iit looks different kaysa sa naalala kong drone this one is coloured black and  it has no rotors or something that is familiar with a fan. Its just a small cube, pretty plane. How can it even fly? It looks awesome.

"who are you?"

"Oh lady, im the man you love to stare."

Nag init ang mukha ko sa sinab nya. He's teasing me! But wait, he's him? Omyyyy his voice sounds so Angelic! Far from his serious look.

"Now, give me that paper" and don naalala ko yung reply ko sakanya! But why did he need to send me that note when he can talk to me with this drone? Di ko nalang pinansina baka pag tanungin ko sya isipin nya that im feeling close or something. But how will I hand to it the paper?

Its like the robot seem to understand my puzzled look at bigla nalang may lumabas na hand like mula sa katawan nya. Alright? Pati ba naman ito may kamay sa tyan? Even Jaxen is like that. Whatever. I handed my paper at kinuha nya naman ito.

"Thanks" Magsasalita pa sana ako pero lumipad na palayo sa akin ang drone.
