Chapter 9
Lucas' POV
"Who was the girl you're talking to?" my mother asked while we were eating dinner.
Kakababa ko lang nang matapos kami magusap ni Nat, she asked me if I could help her to proofread her work. Of course I said yes. I'm more than willing to do it. Ayoko rin ma bad shot.
She has this mischievous smile on her face.
"She's Nat." then I just realized what I said, "I mean, Ash." I corrected myself.
Then she laughed, "So only you get to call her Nat?" she teased.
She read me so well.
I created that nickname for her. And it suits her better. But only I get to call her that. Natasha. Nat. That name could make me blush and smile whenever I hear it.
Damn. I got it bad.
"Have you confessed to her?" she asked.
I chuckled then I shook my head, "I'm planning to. But I told myself that I'll confess to her this November. It's her birth month too. I just want to confess, I don't want to put any pressure on her."
My mother is really nice, and kind. She doesn't put any pressure on me. I like our relationship, I like this when I could talk to her about the girl I'm admiring silently.
Natasha. Damn. Pangalan pa lang ang ganda na.
"Treat her well, don't forget to respect her. Don't hurt her okay? Don't be the reason for her downfall." she said.
I smiled, "I don't think I would ever hurt her intentionally. She's too precious. Hurting her is like hurting myself but double the pain."
"Wow, you're really in love, Nate." said Tito.
My stepfather. I feel more than welcome in their home. Tito is really nice, he treats my mother better, he even treats me like his own child.
"Kuya is in love?" Danielle's eyes widened, as she squeaked. "OMG, kuya I want to know her!" she happily said.
"Chill, I don't even know if she likes me." I sneered, then they all laughed.
When I found myself telling my family about her, I already knew that it wasn't just a simple crush.
I was so excited to go to school after the Undas break. Nat and I got close. I'm more than excited to see her again.
When I entered the room, she was already there, our eyes met but she immediately looked away.
Why?
