HER GAME

the announcement

( Cero's pov: )

Its been three days since that incident as i walked towards the classroom i felt my mind's absence

Everything feels so empty even i can see many students walking around the school hallways

I've been wondering why , bakit ako dobrang affected sa nangyari sa kanya , for some reason i can't understand my self at all

I've been thinking about it , siguro ,  sigurooo .... Im actually in love ?

I noticed that im already in the front of our classroom , i took a deep breath and walked towards my seat

Nag tataka siguro kayo bat di ko kasama si Lenny ngayon , she texted me earlier that she will be late today because she woke up late

I adore how energetic , calm and confident she is

Misan naiingit talaga ako sa personality nya , and also glad that shes my friend i took my notes out and tried to change my focus

After few minutes our professor philosophy came in , leny is still not here though im worried already

" Good morning class! , Today we're going to tackle about reality , have you ever asked your self... Totoo ka ba?

Are everything around you real? O siguro , illusyon lang ang lahat hmmm?
something that your mind made or just something you want to believe...
So here's another question , are you sure about everything that you believe in?"

The topic took my attention , it made me think , lahat ba ng nakikita ko totoo? 
ung mga nararamdaman ko?
Are they real? Am i really in love with dos?

The discussion suddenly stopped when a girl with short curly hair and eye glasses entered the class , yes its leny , she told our professor why she's late

She told him that she got jammed in traffic and that there's a Mini incident which is an obvious lie because her real reason is that she woke up late , and a miracle happened!!! Our professor actually believed her!

Now i think i understand the reality , you will never know who's lying to you until you discover the truth huh

She smiled at me with goofy face as she walks towards me , i softly laughed and gave her a high-five , the class continued 

" CRINGGGGG CRINGGGGG!!!!! "

" finally! "
I looked at leny that suddenly shouted , i laughed and stood up

"Tara ! "
She looked at me with confused look , i took her hand and dragged her

We walked through the corridors and through the oval
" San ba tayo pupunta cero?? "

I looked at her and she pouted at me , i chuckled at her and walked straight to the small hut in the almost back of the school 

" Wait, kailan mo nalaman tong lugar na to? I never noticed these hut oh my "
I smiled at her and winked , we entered the hut and sat

" Soooo care to tell me why are we here and not in the canteen? "

I took a deep breath and and looked at her with a worried look

" Actually i want to talk about something , I think , I think....."

I once again took a deep breath and looked at her , shes patiently waiting for whatever im going to say , she smiled at me to tell me its going to be fine

"Leny , i think im actually in love with dos , i dont know why and when , leny i dont know what to do anymore with these feeling , its so strange for me , its so new to me "

I looked down after i told her everything , i felt her arms wrapped around me

" Cero , as a friend i support you , kung mahal mo yung isang tao then go for it , what's stopping you? Kahit anong desisyon ang gawin mo para sa sarili mo i will always be right here to support and help you "

I felt her sincere words that made me calm down , her hands gently stroked my hair

" Im so proud of you , I don't know how long have you been wondering about these things , and now , you finally had the courage to accept it as a fact and actually opened up to me , listen if you love someone you don't really need a reason why , or to know when , if you love someone , even without his good traits you will still love him inside and out"

I pulled her self away from me and pinched my cheeks , i finally opened up to her and get the answer i needed

After our little talk we decided to head back to the the classroom

Its already our last subject , our adviser mrs maritez came in and discussed about few things

" Class i have a news for you, you will have a new classmate starting tommorow! Please be nice to her ! That's all , class dismissed!"

As always leny walked me to the school gate , as we got closer to the gate a saw a familiar figure leaning in the wall, i froze and looked at leny , she smiled and tapped my back and mouthed "go" I smiled and hugged her before running to the guy that I've been thinking about these whole time

"DOS!!!"
He looked at me with surprise as i run closer to me he opened his arms and welcomed me with a warm hug

" I've been so worried about you! "
I heard his soft chuckle as i slapped his shoulders , my tears started flowing out of happiness

He then pulled himself away and wiped my tears with his thumb

"Wag na iyak , ok lang ako ohhh , sorry i made you worry "
He with a goofy sorry face and started patting my head

I puffed my cheeks and looked at him , he just laughed at me

" I missed you too hahahaha"
I felt a sudden rush in my veins and blushed

He gave me the helmet and we took off , after few minutes we reached my house

I got down from his motorcycle and asked him to do so

I can see the confusion in his face , i took a deep breath and looked at his eyes

I've already confirmed it , im already sure about it

" Dos......... I , l l-li... I LIKE YOU! "
I closed my eyes after i told him what i wanted to , i then immediately turned around but he pulled me back facing him

"Open your eyes "

My heart beats so fast as i slowly opened my eyes , the first thing i saw is his smile....

I opened my eyes yet still looking down on the ground

" Hey come on look at me "
I don't know what to do , i pulled all the courage i have and looked at him in the eyes

He lifted his right hand , touched my cheeks and smiled at me

" I've been also thinking about these , at first i was confused about what i feel but then , after spending time with you , i realized i actually have fallen for you

I was scared that you might turn me down if i tell you about my feelings , but today as you confessed at me you don't know how happy i am! Yes i like you also wait no.....
Actually i think i already love you!"

I felt the butterflies in my stomach going crazy , the blood rushing more intense than it was and the happiness that i cant contain anymore

"So cero , ill ask you a very important question , here and in these
moment.......

Can i Court you?"

I looked at him with teary eyes, i felt an explosion of happiness inside my heart

"Yes of course!"

He hugged me tight and kissed my forehead

Im so happy.....
