The Word For Today Is...

Expect.

I didn't know that texting makes a person "expect." In the first place, what is expected? I told a couple of friends that I am texting Gil (remember the "default crush" ng bayan?) about exams and make-up classes schedules. And then all of a sudden they said, "Naku, baka mag-expect." Huh?

Other than probably he expects classmates to be texting him about the same, I can't think of anything else he can expect from a classmate texting. Ikaw ba, pag may nagtext sayo, iisipin mo agad na may crush or nagdadamubs or kung anuman? Ang kapal na lang ng mukha mo nyan kahit ikaw pa pinaka-gwapo sa balat ng lupa. I text Gil because he is afterall Mr. President of Sanchez Roman. I don't text him quotes or my "muni-muni thoughts" or how my day was or what I watched on tv or in the movies. Ergo, I text him out of necessity. I don't text him to get closer or to "get to know him better." But I like the fact that he shows a little of himself everytime he replies. He is consistently cordial and nice. But that's it. I don't put any subliminal meaning to it.

And so I threw back the question to them, "Bakit kayo ba hindi nyo tinetext si Mariness?" I don't remember what they answered back, but I'm sure it didn't make sense.

What they said made me think... So, yung mga panahong tinetext ko sila, nag-eexpect din kaya sila? Yaiks! Scary. How assuming boys can be these days. I really thought guys are verba legis. Hindi pala. They expect. Sheesh.
