The Feelings

I can sense that Kyle is uncomfortable with Ketron laying his arm around Kyle's shoulder.

"I'm not just a friend... I'm pursuing Kyle."

We gasp. I'm stunned. Bewildered. Dumbfounded. The clangourous sensation in my chest pounds more as I could almost feel my heart stops beating. For a moment, I feel breathless. I'm hurting. Inside me is crying. But I try hard to keep my face straight and calm.

Silim is as dumbfounded as me. He looks at me with pity. He might have had an idea about my feelings.

I also see Kyle looking at me in the eyes. It hurts me more looking at his eyes, so I diverted my vision.

"Seriously? " Selena's eyes dilated in shock. Unbelieving of the scenario.

Wave on the other hand remains silent but it is pretty evident that he did not expect this at all.

Ketron hummed in response to Selena's question.

Kyle lets Ketron's arm off of him. He succeeded.

"But... I did not assure him I'd give him my heart, though... I even told him to stop pursuing me, but he's just too stubborn." Kyle said.

That sparks a small bright of positivity inside of me. Definitely. It returned a slight glow in me. A small smile is even curved in my lips.

"Yeahhh but... You know me, Kyle... " Ketron responded. "If I want it, I get it." He smirks at Kyle.

Kyle rolls his eyes.

The conversation continues until it's nearly time to return to class. Even after class, I still carry with me a heavy heart. But, I try to look at the brighter side of things: Kyle is still not with Ketron.

SILIM'S POV:

The entire day after I met Wave, there is that feeling inside of me that I wanna keep myself close from him. I never want to be away from him.

After the class has ended, I walk beside Wave as we exit the room and the school.

"Wave?..." I call his name softly.

He hummed. He hummed? I heard him hummed! He responded as soon as I called him. This give a different joy in my heart, I tell you.

I gulped before continuing as I don't want to sound nervous and thrilled at the same time.

"Am I going too far about our friendship if... if I ask about you?" Thank Mother Nature I did not stutter.

"Depends... " He answers without looking at me. His view is still straight.

"Hmmm..." I nod. Should I continue asking?

"What do you wanna know about me?" Wave asks.

I was a bit surprise that he asks that. This is it. I'll continue on asking him. I inhaled deeply and exhaled it in a second before I actually say something.

"I don't mean being offensive but... are you always like this?" I closed my eyes. Expecting that he'd be mad.

"Like what?" He responded. I heard him giggle softly.

He giggled? It's super duper cute... Awwww... I take a peek on him, taking the opportunity that I see him smile and I did. I see him smile. He looks really good while smiling.

"Hey... Like what?" He asks again. His smile disappeared.

"Like this... Serious... Looks like you're a strict guard of a palace who hates laughter... Like you're always mad..." I instantly close my eyes again as soon as I finished uttering the last word.
