Asa's POV



I parked my car not far from where they stopped. My brows immediately furrowed, confused if this is where they are really going. I mean, seriously? This is where their date is gonna be, or they have other plans than this?

I waited for them to head in first inside the school before tagging along without getting noticed. The guard wasn't strict or anything, he just asked for my I.D. and what was my purpose in the school. I just lied and told him that I'm planning to transfer. And with that he let me off.

Nang makapasok ay akala ko naiwala ko na sila, mabuti na lamang ay nahagip ng mga mata ko ang nag-iisang babaeng naka-turtle neck. I continued to secretly followed them and realized that Afia was just enrolling for their second semester. So, kaya niya hinayaan na samahan siya ng tukmol na ito ay para pala sa skwelahan nila. Tsk. She should've just asked for me instead. But then, again... I did lose in that chess.

I immediately frowned from where I was standing, still hiding at the near corridor to where I could perfectly see that Slate teasing my Afia.

Sige, tabuyin mo ang kamay niya. That's good.

Hindi rin naman sila nagtagal dahil mukhang pag-e-enroll lang talaga ang pakay ni Afia. Balak ko na rin sanang umalis para hindi ako mahuli rito nang unti-unti akong dumugin ng mga babaeng estudyante rito. Shit! I tried ducking my head when I saw them passed through, but I don't think it was still necessary since I was already being crowded by these women.

"Let me through, I need to see my girlfriend," I said and I heard all of them sighed in disappointment.

Girlfriend na may ibang ka-date. But at least it worked! I got free from them!

I followed them. I followed and made sure that he wouldn't do any unnecessary things to Afia. I may look like a fool and stupid for doing this, but I wanted to make sure that she is fine and enjoying. Even if I wasn't the one who is with her.

Pero sino nga ba ang lolokohin ko? I can't be happy seeing her enjoy with the arms of someone else. Kaya nang makita ko siyang niyakap ni Slate sa park, tumalikod na lamang ako at saka bumalik na sa aking sasakyan.

I sighed as I placed my forehead on my steering wheel. I'll wait for her until he drives her home safe.

I smiled bitterly. I had flings, exes and dated a lot of girls before, all of them felt nothing to me but just casual relationships. Kung gusto ko, sige lang. Kapag ayaw, bahala ka sa buhay mo. But the thing is, no one ever declined me to be theirs. All of them wanted to own me. However, I'm an eagle that doesn't fit and looks good inside a cage. I should always be free.

Even so, my whole life turned around ever since I cross paths with Afia. She made me feel inferior with everything. That someone like an eagle as me is no match from a mouse like her. Like when a time comes, an eagle and a snake battled to see who would get the mouse, she wouldn't hesitate to pick the snake despite of its ferocious look. She made me feel afraid of the thought of someone might take her away from me. That she wouldn't even blinked even if she saw me fall down to the ground as she would just go on with her life continously without me. And the only choice for her to pick me, is for me to be locked up. So, even if I didn't want to, I would be glad to be place in a cage by her. Be own by her with no complains.

Funny how I could think this deep towards her, whereas I felt nothing towards her but curiosity before.

"I'm your fan.." a woman approached me as she handed a pen.

"What? You're a fan?" I said, slightly irritated that I was still recognized here.

Though, I don't want to be rude. I mean, I could just say, "that's nice" and leave, but she was already handing out a pen towards me. Maybe I shouldn't have just accepted Tito Sinn's favor for modeling from time to time in his agency. It was already too much for the people at school that were flocking me, nadagdagan pa lalo sa labas dahil sa pag model. It was a bit troublesome for me, but I still did it.
