;
My friend, Joyie, was the perkiest one in the Effervescence group. She always have something to talk about even in the midst of trouble. It was no wonder why people easily get along with her. She was an optimist and always seeing the good in everybody even if they were the least lovable.
--Alright, that was an exaggeration.
But she was sociable and cheerful nonetheless. She had this funny childlike attitude which shows the real her. I stil couldnt quite find the right word for it, but whimsical somehow cuts it. Undoubtedly that was what attracted people to her.
Which is why, it's still an endless wonder to me why she and Jillson never existed in peace and harmony with each other. Even before when they were in highschool, its either they ignore each other or-- well, still ignore each other. Unfortunately that was what all they ever did.
I asked Joyie once before and she told me that the cold war started when her cousin, who happened to be Jillson's friend, blurted out to him while they were drinking over their house that she could've fallen in love him if he wasnt arrogant and snobbish Even Jillson would got him thinking if that was an insult or a compliment.
I laughed at that and pestered Joyie about it every single chance I get. Jillson was a hottie anyway. Tall, dark, handsome.. I wouldnt be surprised if Joyie will actually fall for him.
Anyway, the reason why I think they never got along well was because of their contradicting personality. Joyie was talkative, sociable, and charming. While Jillson was cool and aloof. In fact,just by looking at him I could easily assume that he finds women like her annoying.
Why would say that? Simple. It was Joyie who told me.
She said that he never laughed at her jokes. Not once. Not ever. Not that she wanted him to, let alone to notice her. It only happened that she was assigned to report and decided to crack some jokes for an icebreaker. Everybody bursted out laughing. Except him.
She wasnt annoyed. But she was insulted.
When we graduated highschool, I thought the cold war between them would ber over and forgotten. They'd be having their own ways. They would never see each other again.
Or so I thought
To my amazement Joyie and Jillson applied in the same school and in the same department. She was taking Accountancy while he was taking Management and Accountancy.
It was like destiny didnt want them apart. When all they wanted was to have their own lives and away from each other, destiny kept bringing them closer together. I didnt know if it was a good thing though Coz when destiny finally succeede in its plan, the cold war turned to heated war. Man, were they in constant bickering. How and when it all started, come closer and give all your attention..
Our aquaintance party was held at Divine word's highschol gym. Tables and chairs were all placed at the sides, leaving a wide space at the center for the dance floor. Joyie and I were sitted near the booth where free foods were given out to those first 200 students who came early. Of course we were one of those.
In fact, we attended the party for that and not so much for the revelries going on. We werent much of a party goer so while some students rock their heads off and shake their booties till it bounce off, Joyie, me and some of our new found friends gathered around the table. We were practically shouting at each other just to be heard through the loud music. If the place would've been eerie silent, our laughs couldve reached all the way to Divine college.
I was teasing Joyie that time on how Jillson had become more handsome and how destiny gave her another chance to realize that when Jillson, in the flesh, stood behind her chair and looked down at her.
" More handsome?! Jillson? Are you crazy?" She laughed and I felt myself wince as Jillson's eyebrows knitted in a frown.
" Alright, alright. Maybe youre right," she continued. " but i doubt theres has been some good changes with his attitude. In fact, he's still the arrogant guy iv known. Imagine we are classmates in fil 1, nat.sci. 1 but believe me he never once looked at me. He acts like he doesnt know me. But I dont blame him anyway. In fairness to him I treat him the same way so--" she paused, finally noticing the fidgety look on my face. " What's wrong?"
" Someone..uh.. wants to talk to you." I replied.
" huh?"
I stared past at her and she followed my gaze.
Jillson was still standing there and he was intensely staring down at her. If looks could burn, Joyie wouldve been long toasted. " arrogant, huh?" There was total sarcasm in his voice.
Joyie's head swished around at me, eyes wide in surprise and embarrassment.
she shifted uncomfortably on her seat. " well..actually.. I ..uh.."
"Just drop it Joyie Now dance with me." He roughly commanded.
Al of us were taken aback.
I lifted an eyebrow and narrowed my eyes on him. Jillson asking Joyie to dance? Preposterous! They never even look at each other.
I swore I was smelling something fishy. And when I shifted my eyes from him to the other side of the gym and saw his friends giggling at them, I knew then that he was up to something.
" Dance with you?" she chuckled sarcastically. " Youre kidding me."
" Oh c'mon. I know you want it." Eman, our friend, teased and we all laughed.
She glared at us.
" But seriously Jillson," I said. "Joyie's not in the mood to play around with you."
" Playing? Im not playing. Alright. Maybe I am technically playing. Listen, my friends and I are playing spin the bottle. I was dared to dance with your friend over here, much to my luck." He bitterly said. " I couldve easily said no but I owe jimmy, that freaking bastard over there a 100 bucks. I'll have to pay him double if I wont do the dare. and since Im totaly broke now,what choice do I have left?"
" He's got a point Joyie." I said. " Why6 dont yoyo give him this favor? Just this once in the least."
She looked at me in disbelief as if I've sold her out.
" Now what? Are you gonna dance with me or what?"
Reluctantly, Joyie stood up and grudgingly went to the dancefloor with him.
We all started to cheer in amusement. even Jillson's friends were taking pictures of them.
Then the music changed to an even more upbeat song and the students in the dancefloor instantly went wild and started jumping around like kangaroos in australia.
One man who looked like he's been recently released from the mental institution,accidentally tripped over and collided with her back. about to lose her balance, Jillson's arms instinctively went around her for support.
When they have finally realized how slightly intimate their position was, they both broke away from each other so fast as though they've been electrified.
For a while they just stood there, both looking pathetically awkward. Until Joyie said something and finally they parted ways.
We were all suppressing a grin when she returned.
" Dont ever say a word." she warned.
We didnt say anything. We only bursted out laughing.
.. Alright that wasnt exactly the event that had triggered their heated arguement. In fact, the next day after that and the following days went pretty normal for both of them. The 'you-dont-know-me-I-dont-know-you' treatment wouldve continued on until I saw the picture in every computers of our school's internet lab. It was Joyie and Jillson during the aquaintance party, on the dancefloor and into each other's arms. It was when Jillson tried to keep her from falling. But the picture suggested a different story. Any students who dont know them, would assume their couples trying to brag their affection for each other. and that was when the bickerings started..
" Dammit Joyie! What is it that you want?! are you that desperately in love with me to ask your friend to post that picture in the internet lab?! Youre unbelievable!"
Joyie jumped up from her chair and faced him although she was straining her neck to meet his eyes. But she didnt mind at all. she was angry.
" No, youre unbelievable! Who do you think you are? a freaking campus hottie? Dream on Jillson! You know what? I swore I didnt regret calling you arrogant coz you have been and will always be an arrogant, conceited ox!"
" conceited? Hey, you listen--"
" No you listen. Dont you ever dare involve my friends in this. Theyre nice people and they would never do such a thing. Maybe your friends did it. They were the ones who dared you to dance with me anyway. And read my lips Jillson, I WILL NEVER EVER FALL IN LOVE WITH YOU. Even if you were the last man on earth."
" That's good coz youre actually doing me a great favor. I'll never go out with a goody goody dwarf like you."
Joyie retorted but I decided not to listen to them any further. I was actually standing just right outside the classroom they were in and silently listening to them. It wasnt really my intention to eavesdrop but since my boredom got me walking around the campus and to room 308, I stayed for a while and do a little listening. It was a wrong thing, I know, though. But I sure didnt regret it.
Amused and giggling, I went down the stairs.
...I didnt tell Joyie what I heard that night, but my pestering with her didnt stop. In fact, it was reinforced.(har har) Since then the bickerings were incessant. It even worstened when their classmates started teasing them. In their classes, they were either assigned to report together or sit together. In other words, they instantly became the love teasm of the year, much to my amusement. But neither of them liked it.
I'l have to say that destiny was doing a fine job in pulling them closer--and stretching their patience. In fact,when they were with each other they didnt seem to know the word 'patience'...
They were preparing their powerpoint presentation for their reporting in nat sci at the student's lounge just in front of the canteen when Jillson's temper snapped and walked away.
" Fine go! That's what you always do anyway. Leaving your partner with all the works to be done while you can have the time of your life Dont you ever know the word 'teamwork'?" Joyie exclaimed.
Jillson stopped and turned to sarcastically stare ather. " I just wanna go to the bathroom, is that such a crime?"
She stuck her nose up in the air and went back to her work.
I took the chair beside her and smiled at her. " You know what yoy two need? to chill. You could get the entire school on fire"
" Oh I dont know. Im not usually like this and you know that. I just dont know why when Im with him I lose all my temper and just go boom! You get what I mean?" she sighed. " Theres just something in him that ticks me off."
"oooh.. you know the saying the more you hate the more you love?"
She groaned in exasperation.
Just then JB came up to us with a beaming face. He was Joyie's friend. He even once courted her but they soon realized that they were better off just as friends.
" Hey guys! what're you doing?"
" Making a powerpoint presentation. Wanna help?" She replied.
" Sure. But lets go eat first. My treat."
" alright! I want pancit and toron." I said.
"I'll order the same thing too. Oh wait, then again I'll go with you. I may want to order something else." Joyie giggled and started to the canteen with him.
It wasnt long after they left that Jillson came back. He frowned when he only found me by the table. "Where's Joyie?" He asked.
" There in the canteen."
He turned and frowned even more when he saw her and JB together. Before I knew it, he was storming into the canteen.
" Joyie!" He took her wrist and forcefully pulled her away from JB. " Were not here just so you copuld flirt around with some guys. Were doing our report and that should only be it. Now lets go."
" Woh wait up there man."JB said.
Jillson gave him an ominous stare. " Shut up."
When both of them reached their table, I ran towards BJ to apologize and explain everything to him while they continued to argue.
" Are they always like that?" BJ asked me.
I nodded.
" Oh well, still wanna go grab some snacks?" He asked.
" Sure an we'll eat Joyie's part." We both laughed and went back inside.
..It was only after we ate Joyie's goto that I thought about what JB told me and realized that Jillson might be falling in love with her. He said he saw it in the way Jillson stared at her when he pulled her away from him. He looked like a raging jelous boyfriend. I was totally laughing my heart out when when he said that. I knew this would happen. I saw it coming. I was so sure that destiny would find a way to have two enemies fall for each other. And little by little, Jillson was starting to bite into that notion, albeit unconsciously. Want proofs?
Here's one. The day before christmas vacation he gave hera mini stuffed toy. A stuffed dwarf, to be exact. The card pinned to it said, ' a little something to remind you of yourself.' Of course she took it as an insult. But if you ask me, I'd take it as a big step to insinuate the message: I think Im falling for you.
Joyie, in the same way, was falling for him too even if she kept denying that fact. I could see it. Only that both of them were tenaciously refusing the thought. They were unyielding the intangible force that was attracting them both to each other. They were enemies and that ought to stay that way.
But destiny wasnt to be put off...
It was exactly Feb. 14 but JB was crying hopelessly in an empty classroom down the 3rd floor's hallway. Joyie was here with him. She watched her friend pour out his pains about his girlfriend leaving him. He looked too broken hearted that Joyie couldnt bring herself to leave him. But she knew she had to. She was supposed to meet up with Jillson at Jollikod. Although she didnt have any idea what he was exactly up to but it sure did made her heart flutter the moment he texted her. And that annoyed her.
" Listen JB. There's no point on crying over her. She's a total fool in leaving you. And she doesnt even deserve a single tear from you. Cheer up. Please.."
He sniffed and let out a puff. " YOure right. . Youre really right. There are a lot of women in the world. Im sure I can find the one."
" That's the spirit!"
With that, they both stood up and gave each other a comforting hug.
It was then at that exact moment that Jillson and I came. He asked me to find them when he found me at the canteen and I agreed. It was a decision that I regretted that time. Coz when he saw them, he went ballistick.
" What the fuck!" Jillson impulsively stormed inside and yanked JB from her and gave him a hard punch on his left cheek that sent JB stumbling down.
At that instant, knowing JB would fight back, I ran towards him and got a hold of him. Joyie on the other hand took Jillson's sleeve and pulled it so he could face.
" What the heck is wrong with you?! You dont have any right to do that to JB! What the heck has gotten into you? How dare you."
' How dare me? You were the one flirting with a guy while i was out there waiting for you! What do you expect me to do? Rejoice to find you with this guy doing god knows what!"
" What do you care? Youre not my boyfriend!"
" But i want to be!"
That got us all silent and dumbfounded.
I could feel the tension rising and the turmoiled emotions stirring between them that has long been suppressed.
I cleared my throat. " I.. we.. we better go. Right JB?" I nudged at his shoulder.
" Me? Oh yeah. She's right. Were going."
At that tiptoed out of the room.
But of course we didnt exactly leave. The situation between them was already at its highest peak both of us wouldnt want to miss that for the world. It was something that we wanted to anticipate the ending.
..It never ceases to amaze me as I recall the events that brought Joyie and Jillson ignoring each other, bickering and yes,fianlly, falling in love.They had vowed to despise each other till the sky falls down. But in the end it was destiny that triumphed. They were defiant but eventually it was destiny that had broken down their tenacity. They were enemies.. but now destiny laughs as the two finds each other intertwined by love.
--Alright, that was an exaggeration.
But she was sociable and cheerful nonetheless. She had this funny childlike attitude which shows the real her. I stil couldnt quite find the right word for it, but whimsical somehow cuts it. Undoubtedly that was what attracted people to her.
