VHANNES POV

In the middle of the night here am I sitting in the balcony thinking what did I do earlier. I didn't know what to do tomorrow if I can face her already I know I scare her, I saw here trembling earlier. But if I will not talk to her tomorrow I will hurt her more. I don't want to hurt her but I already do that when I didn't show up because I'm scared too, that maybe she doesn't love and want me anymore because of what did I do with the two girls.

I decided to go back in my room because it's already late and I have class tomorrow. Before laying in my bed I get my phone and there I saw the messages of the girl I love. It hurt me thinking her crying earlier. I deserved what Drea did to me. My pain doubled reading Keah's messages

Princess 👸 (12:00pm)
Hi Vhannes andito na kami sa canteen. Hintayin kita dito ah.

Princess 👸 (12:10pm)
Late ba dismissal niyo Vhannes? Hintayin kita ah sabay tayong kumain ah. Nakapila pa din naman sila Drea makakarating ka din naman sguro mamaya.

(12:15pm)
Ingat ka papunta dito sa canteen ha.

(12:20pm)
Andito na sila papaunahin ko nalang sila gusto kitang makasabay kumain ih.

(12:40pm)
Tapos na kami kumain 😊 hindi ka pala makakasabay sa amin. Galit kaba sakin Vhannes? Di ko kasi alam kung may kasalanan ako ih. Sorry kung ano man yung kasalanan ko. I didn't understand what happening but I will still understand you.

Madami pa siyang messages ngunit yung last message niya yung sobrang nagpasakit sa puso ko. Di ko na alam ang gagawin ko gustong gusto ko siyang puntahan ngayon.

Princess 👸 ( 8:30 pm )
Hi Vhannes. I know you are mad to me. I dont know what did I do why you hurt me this much. I didn't know that loving you will drag me down. I love you so much Vhannes that I'm willing to risk everything just to be with you but I can't risk my studies for you. I have lots of dreams in life. I got a low score ealier because I can't focus myself and this is the first time in my life getting a low score in my quizzes. Tell me if you are mad, tell me if you are tired because I will give you the freedom that you want. But please tell me the reasons of this so that I can understand because even if it's hard I will understand. Maybe we're really both young for this. We should focus on our studies instead of focusing with someone. I do love you Vhannes but I love my mother so much and I can't disappoint her. Hope that you'll talk to me tomorrow to clear some things. Have a good night.

I can't stop my tears from falling. I think she's giving up. I hurt her a lot, but I will never let her slipped away in my hand. I love her that much, she's my everything I can't lose her. I fell asleep thinking what will I do to win her back tomorrow.

Kasalukuyan akong nag dadrive papunta sa school dahil 7:30 am na at sabi ni tita nasa school na si Keah. I really want to talk her before the classes will start. Pagkarating na pagkarating ko sa classroom niya ako dumiretso. Nakita ko siyang nakaupo sa kanyang upuan habang naka mukmok sa mesa habang sina Drea ay nakatingin na lamang sa kanya. Tinignan ako ng pinsan ko ng makahulugang tingin kaya pumasok na din ko. Umupo ako sa harapan ni Keah at hinawakan ko ang balikat niya. Bago ko pa siya tawagin ay inangat niya na ang ulo niya. Kitang kita ko ang pagkagulat sa kanyang mga mata siguro hindi na siya nag eexpect. Namamaga at namamasa ang kanyang mga mata halatang kagagaling lamang sa iyak. Ang sakit tignan na ganito siya at lalong lalo ako yung dahilan. Nakita kong tumulo yung luha sa kanyang mga mata habang naka tingin sa akin kaya agad ko siyang niyakap.

Shhhhh shhhh tahan na pleaseee huwag ka ng umiyak. Im sorry for hurting you. You can slap me and kick me if you want just please dont cry.
Pagpapatahan ko sa kanya while caressing her hair. Ramdam kong umiiyak pa rin siya kasi nababasa na yung damit ko sa balikat pero wala akong pakialam kasalanan ko kung bakit siya umiiyak ngayon. Kumalas ako sa pagkayakap sa kanya at pinunasan ang mga luha sa mga mata niya. Maraming mga matang naka tingin sa aming dalawa pero wala na akong pakialam dahil sobrang sakit na makita siyang ganito. I kiss her forehead then I stand up. Can we talk? But not here please. She nodded her head for her answer. I look my watch to check what time is it. It's already 7:45 am. We only have 15 minutes to talk. I look at Drea to tell her that she will text me if their teacher is already here. I hold Keah's hand and I bring her where I'm always sitting before just to see her.
