POV of Raven Zhiara Query Obelious
"Zhia, Okay na ba mga gamit mo? We're almost late" my mother, Ahra said as she knocked on my door.
"Yes Mom, papunta na po" alas sais na ng umaga and 7am ang flight namin pauwi sa Manila from states.
Another knock came into my senses "come in po" "Zhiara, nak are you ready, i'll help you bring your stuff sa car" he enlightened me with a smile.
"Yes dad, thanks po" I smiled back and closed the door.
Its been 2 years since I departed and chose to restart my life here in states. Now, my parents decided to go settle for a while in the Philippines.
(I took a photo at the airport and set the caption 'coming home')
"Ma'am let me check your I.D." I gave it to her with a smile plastered on my face "Thank you Ma'am, have a safe flight!" she greeted me.
Few more hours and i'm home.
POV of Leo Valero Xavier Dela Cruz
"I am expecting that all of you will comply on your project on time. Class dismissed". Klein nudge me when the teacher almost caught me sleeping at the end of the class. Finally another boring class has ended.
"Leo look, Zhiara is going home" Klein showed me the recent post of Leo. I froze for almost a minute as if the coldest water on earth was poured all over me. No words left my mouth and my throat begged for a bottled of water.
"And so?" I shrugged everything and acted cool infront of Klein like bro wala akong pake sakanya "Ney, ang yabang, parang hindi ginawan ng playlist sa spotify ha" she laughed
"Bitch ka" Leo replied, sabay 360° ung mata kay klein.
We both recieved a notification from our group chat

POV of Raven Zhiara Query Obelious
We are on our way home when I suddenly saw a notification mentioning that Marx added me. Nagulat ako ng lumitaw ang username ni Leo sa group chat. I was happy to be in touch with them again and luckily they asked to have a meet up tomorrow, I agreed.
"Mom, i'm going out with Marx and Klein tomorrow" I notified them "oh does your kuya know?" She looked at me with a hint of worry that maybe i'll get lost since it has been 2 years.
"Yes Mom, he's coming with us" I said and the day ends unpacking my clothes from the luggages.
(The next day)
A call woke me from my lumber "hello?" Sagot ko na inaantok pa "Its already 10, you're late Rie" a familiar voice spoke "huh sino 'to?" I shoot my eyes wide when I remembered the voice "AHH LEO, yes I-I'm wide awake"
"Hurry I'm on my way, I already told tita that I'm picking you up" he ended the call. It made me jump off my bed in surprise and move like a thunderbolt.
"No no no noo ano ng gagawin koo??!!?!" I screamed on top of my lungs. After a few minutes of preparing, a sound of well built sports car was heard "he's here".
I opened my door at nandon agad si Manang para sabihin na dumating na nga siya "Ate pasabi po sa dumating maghintay lang saglit hehe. Thank you po!"
Pababa na ako ng hagdanan ng muling makatanggap ng text galing kay Leo.

Leo_vx: what's taking u so long?
Leo_vx: i'll go there

Before I even got the chance to reply I already saw him approaching the stairs. I remember this smell, his manly cologne.
"Oh your here, let's go?" He lend me his arm
I am glad that he's still that mannered man I've know before.
