Missing him

"How could I miss him like this? I don’t even know his name!" She’s very independent that she never tried to approach him even once. She don’t want to be labeled as "easy-to-get". All she had was regret that she didn’t get the chance to know him better.

"-el"

Tumalon ang puso nya ng kausapin sya nito. “I’m just wondering if you’re a Filipino.” “Opo”, sagot naman nya. And the conversation goes on habang naglalakad sila papuntang bus stop. “Ako nga pala si Joel”, pakilala nya. “-el, -el, -el, -el….” Parang nageecho sa tenga nya ang last syllable ng pangalan nya. “Oh no, not him! He shouldn’t be him!”

She just remembered something about a name with the word -el, inisip nya ang makakatuluyan nya ay may -el sa pangalan. “Hindi naman siguro sya yun, he’s married eh!” At pano nya nalaman? Nakita na kasi nyang may isang tiny shimmering splendid na band sa left ring finger nya.

Still hoping

She still looks for him on the train, on the bus and at the bus stop, hoping that one day he’ll see him and make her heart skip once again.

That Smell

"Don't you dare go near me!" She screamed at herself. She knows her weakness - the "after-day-perfume-smell" of a man. She could barely stand the last time he came near her, almost want to sniff all the smell out of his skin.
