Chapter 14

I knew in myself that i really liked him, but i didn't know when it started.
Is it impossible to really like someone even if it does nothing to make you fall for him?
Even though you know he won't like you but you still like him.
Because now I've only experienced liking someone, because i used to be afraid of commitment but why when it comes to Clark i feel like i can, i feel like i can accept whatever happens if we became lover.
Ngayon ko lang ulit naranasan sumaya ng ganito, kung hindi ko ba naisipan na mag-aral dito...hindi ko ba to mararamdaman?
Since i came here to study i had a friend, i got to know Clark better.
Dumating pa yung araw na pinanood ko sya kung paano sumagot sa recitation.
"What is the purpose of Indeterminate Sentence Law?" Asked their prof.
"The purpose of Indeterminate Sentence Law is to redeem valuable human material and prevent unnecessary and excessive deprivation of personal liberty and economic usefulness. People Vs. Onate, 78 SCRA 43."
"Is Indeterminate Sentence Law applicable to persons convicted to capital offenses?"
"Yes. The law is applicable to persons convicted of capital offenses BUT NOT SENTENCED TO DEATH. It will also apply if the sentence is NOT LIFE imprisonment. The basis of the application of the Indeterminate Sentence Law is the PENALTY ACTUALLY IMPOSED and NOT the penalty imposed by law."
"While on parole, the offender committed a crime. Is he entitled to avail the benefits of Indeterminate Sentence Law?"
"Yes. Offender is not disqualified to avail the benefit of Indeterminate Sentence Law. What is prohibited by law are those who violated terms of conditional pardon of the chief executive, not parole."
This is also one of the reasons why i like him, but you just won't win if you're going to debate with him... remember he's a future lawyer so he's always right.
Halos maiyak ako nang marinig ang pinaka huling tanong ng prof nila! I don't know how he can answer that, i know it's hard to take law especially since you have no experience when it comes to law.
"A B and C in conspiracy, planned to robbed the house of mayaman. Nobody was around when they entered the house of mayaman and loot all personal belongings inside the house. When they go out the door with their loot, they meet sexy... daughter of mayaman and thereafter rape her inside the house. After raping sexy she becomes unconscious inside the room where the three robbers left. A B and C burned the house before they left, where sexy is lying unconsciously and sexy dies as a result and the house was burned into pieces. A B and C thereafter was apprehended. If you were the prosecutor, what crime/s would you charge for A B and C."
"Arson will be enough since according to RA 1163 if there is death due to arson life imprisonment is the penalty, aside from that, it was committed by a band, meaning more than three... therefore the best felony to be charged will be arson. All other felonies committed all inclusive in it."
That ended without Clark even sweating!.
Napatigil ako sa pag-iisip ng may pumitik na daliri sa harap ko.
"Why are you crying?" Clark asked. Nakalimutan 'kong andito pala kami sa Library!
Tinignan ko naman ang repleksyon ko sa screen ng phone ko, tumutulo na pala ang luha ko!
I don't know why I'm crying!
"S-sorry...naiyak na pala ako" pinunasan ko ang mata ko habang pilit na tumawa.
"Do you have a problem? You were stunned before and then suddenly you started crying."
Baka naiyak ako dahil sa mga naalala ko!
"W-wala...grabe ang galing mo pala no? Paano mo nakakayanan 'yon? Parang wala lang sayo kapag sumasagot ka, samantalang ako kailangan ko pa mag-review magdamag para lang may maisagot ako sa recitation pero ikaw kahit hindi mo na kailangan ng reviewer masasagot mo parin ang recit nyo."
He frowned. "What? What are you saying?" Mukhang nalilito sya sa mga sinasabi ko...he doesn't know that i watch him when  they have a recitation.
"Pinanood kita 'non, I'm so proud of you my Attorney."
I don't know why i said that, i stood up before i turned my back on him. I didn't bother to look back, tumakbo nalang ako papuntang comfort room para makapag-ayos ng sarili.
Hindi ko alam kung paano ko sya haharapin kapag nagkita kami, maybe he will be angry again because of what i said.
"Miss. Wilson are you okay?" My prof asked.
I nodded. Hindi ko nga lang maintindihan kung ano ang nilelecture nya dahil iba ang pumapasok sa isip ko.
Hindi ako lumabas ng room hanggang sa sumapit ang lunch time. Nagmamadali akong kinuha ang gamit ko dahil susunduin ko pa si Kiro, nasa labas naman na ang dalawa habang busy sa pag-uusap.
"Kara! Gaga, ayos ka lang?" Remy asked.
I bit back a heavy, teenagerish sigh.
"Don't worry, kahit hindi ako okay maganda parin ako." Pagbibiro ko, bakas kasi sa mukha nila ang pag-aalala.
"Nakita namin si Kiro!" Napatingin ako kay Noemi.
I frowned. "Nasa School sya."
"No! He's with Clark!"
My lips parted.
Halos takbuhin ko ang hallway para lang marating ang baba! Nakita ko naman kaagad sila Clark, nasa bench sila habang magkakasama sila ng mga pinsan nya.
Napatigil ako ng makita uli't 'yong babae, she was next to Clark while Kiro was sitting on Clark's thigh.
Para akong sasabog sa inis habang papalapit sa kanila!
"Tangina!" Natigil naman sila sa tawanan bago tumingin sa'kin, malawak ang ngiti ni Kiro kaya parang nawala ang bigat na nararamdaman ko.
"Mama!" Bigla nalang syang bumaba mula sa pagkakaupo sa hita ni Clark para tumakbo papunta sa'kin.
"What are you doing here?!" Galit na bulong ko kay Kiro, yumakap naman sya sa leeg ko bago humagikgik.
"Mama, sinundo ako ni Daddy...then i aslo met Daddy's friends."
Daddy.
Halos manghina ang tuhod ko ng marinig ang sinabi nya.
"W-what did you say?"
"Sinundo ako ni Daddy-
"Yeah...W-why did you call him Daddy?"
"He told me he was my Daddy"
I don't know why i feel like i just want to cry! Damn. Clark!
"Bye mga pare! Ihahatid ko lang ang anak namin." I heard Clark said.
"Hoy! Anong anak?" Remy asked. Curious.
"Who the fuck are you?" One of Clark's friend asked. Maybe he's Ashton.
"At sino ka 'rin? kilala ba kitang gago ka?"
Tumikhim naman si Clark kaya napatigil sila.
"Let's go?" Clark asked.
Tumango nalang ako. Dala ni Clark ang gamit ni Kiro.
I know Remy and Noemi want to ask what's going on but they just chose to follow us.
Babalik din kami after lunch dahil may class pa kami, ihahatid lang namin si Kiro sa bahay...tinawagan kasi ni Clark ang isang maid nila para bantayan daw si Kiro, gusto ko sanang tumanggi pero sya ang mapilit. Sasama din ang dalawa sa'min kaya dalawa kami ni Kiro sa Shotgun seat.
"Pamilyado na pala si Attorney! Diman lang nagsabi!" Pambabasag ni Remy sa katahimikan. Nagtawanan naman sila ni Noemi kaya napasimangot ako.
"I don't even know kung paano ako nagkaroon ng asawa't anak" Clark chuckled.
"At least pogi yung nabuo, diba?" Si Noemi.
"Pogi ba naman ang tatay, di na ako magtataka" Mahanging sabi ni Clark. Halos matawa naman ako dahil sa sinabi nya!
"Pogi ako?" Pagsingit ni Kiro.
"Syempre..mana ka sa'kin" Clark smirked.
I don't know but I'm happy, his treatment has changed...he's no longer that angry.
