Gael looked at his watch, seems like waiting for someone. He tapped his feet a lot of times, walking back and forth.

C'mon! I thought I'm going to meet him the first time i meet him! Ba't wala pa siya?

He bit his inner lips as he calm himself down. He'll going to see Vile Kim again, He'll going to see him.

After an hour of waiting there he goes. He's running, rushing para hindi masarhan ng gate but Gael won't do that.

Dahil yun ang ginawa niya noon. He was about to close the gate that time but he saw Vile rushing, running as fast as he can para makahabol.

He remembered na pinagalitan niya pa ito at pinagsulat ng apology letter. He chuckled ng maaalala yun as he watched the younger coming closer.

" I-I-I'm...."

" Hey, Breath.. Calm down..." He smiles and watched the younger catches his breath first before standing up straight bowing his head while playing his fingers.

" I-I-I'm sorry.. I-I-I'm late p-po" He heard him said kahit mahina ay narinig niya. He looked at the younger at pinigilang wag ngumiti. He scoffed.

" Kumain ka na?" Imbes na mataranta si Vile ay gulat napatingin ito dito.  Confused was writted all over his face making him secretly smiles.

Why is he softly looking at me and he looked at me as if h-he missed me?

" A-ano? "

" Kumain ka na po ba?" Pag ulit ni Gael dito. Vile blinked twice bago umiwas ng tingin, his cheeks reddened.

" O-op—" Hindi pa siya nakakasagot ng maayus ng tumunog ang tiyan nito. That's what i thought. You didn't eat your morning breakfast again.

Gael chuckled and gently pulled Vile's wrist dragging him inside hanggang sa mapadpad sila sa SSG office.

Gael is the President so no worries.

" Eat. " you're extra grumpy when you're hungry.  Nahihiyang tumingin si Vile sakaniya, kagat-labing nakatingin sa paper bag na nasa harap niya ,he even swallowed hard before playing his fingers at his lap. Nakaupo na kasi to.

" W-why? W-we don't know each other Pres—"

" It's my duty to take care of you—I mean the students like you. Madaming pumasok na hindi kumain ng breakfast." It convince Vile sa sinabi niya.

" T-Then, k-kakainin ko na po?"

" Go ahead and eat.." It's your favorite.

" Inasal?"

" Yes? Bakit ayaw mo?" Vile immediately shook his head bago tumingin sa pagkaing nasa harap niya, eyes twinkling and happiness and excitement is evident in his expression. That's the expression i want to see Vile.

" T-Thank you..." Mahina pero tama na para marinig ni Gael yun. He smiles again bago sumandal sa kabilang table ,crossed arms habang nakangiti na pinapanood ang nakakabata.

He watched how Vile happily ate the food he gave him. I miss you so much. Please smile often , I miss you.

Hindi nawala ang tingin nito dito, pinapanood niya lang ito not until he remembered Vile's favorite fruit juice.

Apple Juice.

Nakangiti siyang nagtitimpla ng apple juice at kahit sa paglagay sa tabi ng pagkain ni Vile ay nakangiti parin.

" T-hank you Pres..." Vile didn't know why his favorites are being served right Infront of him. He just enjoys it unaware on how the SSG President stare at him.

" You done na?" Gael asked making the younger shyly nodded. Gael just smiles and walk towards him marahang ginugulo ang buhok nito.

" You should eat more. " Vile knows that the SSG President is grumpy, cold and hot-tempered but he's actually kind. Vile thought.

Because that's not the young Gael, That's Gael from the future.

Gael chuckled again bago tumayo ng diretso at may kung anong kinuha ito sa desk niya.

" A-ano po to?"

" It's an authority pass. You can come here anytime you want, you can sleep here or rest here, study here do whatever you want to do here just use this.." He handed him the authority pass card to Vile.

" M-May ganto din ba yung iba?"

" Y-yes mostly the officers giving them authority pass but you're the first person na binigyan ko ng Authority pass..." Gael smiles.

" Go ahead na. You still have class to attend. Wala kayong teacher ng first subject and no activity din that's why i took your time just to eat. Napansin ko kasi lagi kang namumutla pag umaga." Gael reasoned.

He noticed that? Vile thought.

" Go na, baka malate ka pa" Gael gently said at pinanood ang nakakabatang tumango at sa mahinang boses, Vile thanked him again as he watched him disappeared from his sight.

He took a deep sigh bago pakiramdaman ang sarili. His heart is beating loudly kanina pa nagwawala ang puso niya at kanina pa nagpipigil na wag itong yakapin.

He closed his eyes firmly bago huminga na naman ng malalim. Lumamig ang nga mata nito kasabay ng pag igting ng panga niya.

After class at the afternoon. His parents's body guard will dragged him harshly forcing him to enter the car. I failed to stopped them because I'm at the office but now? Don't worry Vile, I won't let them do that to you.

As long as Vile is not alone and he's with people, no dares to hurt or forced him. As long as you're with me Vile, you're protected. So stay.

Vile's class ended early and Gael knows it. Agad na tumambay si Gael sa labas ng STEM building  at hinintay ang paglabas ni Vile.

" Vile.." He called kaya napatingin ito sakaniya.

" P-Pres?"

" Let's go?"

" Huh?"

" Help me on something pambawi dahil hindi kita nilista sa late. Samahan mo ako?" Vile blinked twice nago tumingin sa paligid at umiwas ng tingin namumula na naman kasi ito.

" S-saan po?" Gael smirk.

" Cats Paradise" He answered dahilan para mapatingin siya dito. Eyes are wide but Gael clearly tell that Vile is excited. Hindi halata but eyes don't lie.

" Malapit lang yun dito, My treat you can order anything you want." play with cats too. You like cats so much.

" R-really?" Vile finally smile. He smiles widely.

" Yes..." Gael replied still staring at him.

I'll protect that smile, Baby.
