I remember Aiden because... Kaka kilig to!
March 20, 2022
I am not sure if I can push through this article in English. If survived the half of this draft in English then I will continue. I have the feeling that I will not give justice to the story if I will share it in English, but goodluck to me.
I know I had shared a story here about my love in college. That is one side love only but this person is different from that person, for this one, I only know him by the name Aiden or Aidan or Idan? I don't know the spelling and his surname.
But first let me tell you why I remember Aiden, let me call him Aiden because that is what I heard his name is whenever they call him. When I met Jungkook of BTS, not meeting him personally, but knowing him, I remember someone but I can't recall. I feel I am seeing someone through Jungkook's face, specifically the way Jungkook looks in 2019.
This Is how Jungkook looks in 2019. When I watch Run BTS ep 84 to 85, I cannot help but think of someone then again I don't remember why I was thinking about him. I even don't know what I'm thinking but everytime the camera focused on Jungkook, I start to think of someone that I can't recall.
I watched Run BTS, the reality show of BTS at Vlive app, and specifically in that episode, from what Jungkook looks like, I start to think of someone. So last night, I watched it again and the feeling started again, but this time is strong. I don't want my brain to stop me from feeling I remember someone. My mind tells me that I should remember him. I watched the episode 3 times last night, helping myself to recall and lo and behold, I remember him!! He is Aiden.
I don't know where Aiden is right now. When I reached Junior College I no longer saw him. Aiden looks exactly like Jungkook on the picture above. He has curly hair, chinito eyes, very fair and smooth skin and he looks clean. I think I like Jungkook because he looks like him.
I want to tell you my story with him. I was a freshman and on the 1st month of class, I bumped on Aiden in the locker room. I don't have a locker room, but I only stayed there because there were available chairs to sit. Aiden and his classmate has a locker and he was opening his locker that was just beside me.
He is very cheerful and charming. I didn't have a crush on him on the first day I saw him. I just saw him as a cute boy next door. From the things he was holding that time I realize he could be either architecture student or fine arts student. I was near of being deaf when he closed his locker and looked at him, I noticed he was just making fun of me so I went away with him.
He looks like a bully. You know the typical bully that makes fun of his classmates and friends. The second time I saw him was he was pushing his gay classmate on the ground. I really did said to myself, "pogi pala to si chinito, magulo lang ang buhok". He saw me looking at him, I don't know what to do, but he looked at me and looked away, then look at me again, and I look away. From my perspiration, I know deep inside my DNA that he caught me in 4k checking him out.
I didn't see him again. Or maybe because I didn't stay on open grounds at school anymore due to school activities. The next time I saw him was when I was getting my class card. I went to LNB, or Law and Nursing Building, just beside the building of Fine Arts and Architecture. I went on the third floor because my professor told us to get our cards there. When I enter the room, I saw a familiar face. He was laughing loud at someone. And oh my, he was wearing a white shirt with maong as a jacket. I am so weak with guys who can carry that kind of style. I saw Jungkook wearing the same so I will put it in here and I was startled that he looks similar with Aiden on this picture.
This Is close to what Aiden looks like that time. I didn't get in the classroom because I can't see our professor but some of my classmate said that our Prof is there. I think I felt shy of what I look that time. I just wear a simple shirt, and an old jeans and I am on old sandals too. I look like I just got out from bed.
I went outside and asked one of my classmate to pick my class card instead. As I was waiting outside, he suddenly pop out from the door smiling and he saw me. He smiled at me and ask "kukunin mo Din classcard mo?" like we are close. I answer with a smile and I can't look at him but I did saw how chinito his eyes and I felt butterflies on my stomach immediately. My heart was pumping fast and I can't breathe. He then said "pasok ka na, tapos na kaming lahat" and with a sweet smile, he left me. I was still looking at him until he vanished. And in that exact moment, I know, Aiden is a finger heart. He became my crush.
I can't sleep that night. I posted a picture of Jungkook smiling so you can imagine how he smiled at me. You know the feeling that if a guy smile at you for the first time, that kind of feeling that your knees became weak, you lose your balance. He strikes me to the bone. I kept thinking about the scene all night. I kept repeating the scene then I found myself giggling instead of sleeping.
I can't wait until the day of enrollment happened that time. We have a 3-day enrolment day and that was Wednesday to Friday. I went to our university, Wednesday and got myself enrolled. My block mates were there too and we were complete. I already roamed in the campus just to check in him, but I didn't saw him. I was so sad. Then one of my block mates asked me if I can accompany her to her enrolment and scholarships registration on Friday. I said yes so I was wishing and hoping I can see Aiden. That time, I don't know his name actually and no one knows I was suffering, missing him.
Thursday, I was at home but I was very disturb and worried. I really want to see him. I asked my parents if they allow me to go to school because I forgot to do something. They allowed me to go and I went to school immediately.
What I did was to roam again just to check where he is. I was like a security guard that every hour I will start to walk around and check the faces of the students lining up in enrolment area. I didn't see him. I was so sad. I decided to just go home after 4 hours and just try my luck in Friday. His face on the last time I saw him keeps lingering on me. Love songs became my bff that time.
Friday, I prepared a lot. I fix my hair, I used a powder and lip tint. I sprayed cologne. I did not give myself high hopes. I just tried my luck. If I see him, I am happy, if I don't then I am more than prepared to be losing weight and be pretty in the first day of second semester.
I was at school at 7 in the morning. My classmate treats me for breakfast at McDonald's. We came back on the line at 8 in the morning. My eyes were looking around. I look from left to right. I felt I have an Eagle eye that time because even from a far, I can see who's who is arriving from the student familiar to me. After her enrolment she treats me again for lunch and we went to Wendy's.
As we start our lunch I started to share about Aiden to my blockmate. I just describe the face of him and the way he bully his classmate. And then I also share some familiar traits and even the things Aiden brings at school and my block mates instantly says "Oh I think it's Aiden, yun chinito sa Fine arts" but I'm not sure about she was seeing so I said maybe? Then she added, "yun nag lolocker sa Science Building natin?" and I was startled because I saw Aiden going inside Wendy's with his classmates. I told my blockmate to get quite and secretly pointed on Aiden getting near us. Her eyes went big and she said, "he is Aiden" and I went on shooing her. I was so nervous.
Aiden, as now official Aiden, went to his classmate that were already sitted just beside us. I was so nervous that they could have heard my blockmate mentioning his name. I cannot look at him. I cannot move at all. I can hear him saying "Bro panget schedule ko ngayon sem, wala AKONG Thurs at Sat". Then I remember I don't have Thurs and Sat schedule too so my heart is so happy, finger heart.
When I tried to look at him, he was chewing food already and I know he didn't recognise me because I was on a side view from his view, and he is literally just beside me but in different table. I know there were time he looks around the people but I'm not sure if he saw me.
Me and my classmate changed our topic. We were talking about katangahan and I was laughing, but my laugh was full of air because I'm so happy and kilig kasi katabi ko lang si Aiden. I know my block mates is kinikilig na din because of what Aiden looks that time. He was wearing jeans and a black tshirt. He smells good.
When my classmate went to ladies room, I was like not moving and trying to clean my wallet with all the receipt and suddenly Aiden asked me "naka pag enroll ka na? ". I turned to see who, but I know he was the one who asked me, umarte lang ako NG slight, I looked at him and he was smiling at me. I nod and said "last Wednesday pa". I cannot look at him. He asked again "ano sched mo?", then I answered "same as you!" Boom!! Huli. Huli na I was listening to his conversation and I know that he is there all the time.
He laughed at me and said, "ah narinig mo yun kanina", omg his voice. His voice is like a music to my ear. I smiled at him and he said "my dimple ka" and I was like "tigilan mo ko hayup ka marupok ako", but of course it is just in the mind. I smiled back. My blockmate came back and wants to go out na and I was like sana pala kinulong ko sya sa Cr para Hindi mag end and convo namin NI Aiden but we have to go.
I stand and Aiden was like "aalis ka na Jona?". Jona is my real name, Grecy is my pen name. I was shocked looking at him because he knows my name. I asked him "kilala mo ko" he said yes. And I just smile and waved him goodbye. He said, "see you on Monday after this week" then he Salute at me. I gave him a bang bang sign, you know when you are shooting someone and using your fingers as a gun, and he was laughing. When I went outside Wendy's I started jumping because I am super kilig!!! My blockmate ask me if I want to go back, but i said, that's enough for today, kasi naman nag uumapaw ako sa kilig, magtira tayo sa Ibang araw!! WAaaaaaah.
If you want to continue the story, just let me know. I am so happy to remember Aiden and our story and happy that I had my first Jungkook in college pala, kaya ko pala gusto si Jungkook.
