As the sun rises in the east and the wind came from the west, I saw you standing on its boundary. Like a goddess, you look bewitching. I saw you... like a book of unfinished poetry for me write. A mysterious dream for me chase.

Too many people walking on the crowd of the school but I could only focus my vision in you. The girl in the blue. The mesmerizing beauty of yours makes me stunned for a moment you walk closer to where I was. I was so close of touching you for I wanted to see it for myself that you are true.

For the first time my longing heart beats for the best, as it saw its other half. But it was belong to the beautiful girl in the crowd. Mysteriously gorgeous while smiling holding a lunch box on her hands.

"Nandiyan 'yong kapatid ni Shan, bro,"

Siniko ako ni Raze kaya inis ko siyang nilingon bago tumingin sa tinutukoy niya. I was dumbfounded when I saw her again and her iconic blue outfit.

I was just thinking of her and now she's in front of me. God! Would I think of her more often so she will be there every time I did think of her.

Blue outfit. The first time I saw her she's wearing the same color. It fits her so much. She just look even more like a goddess of blue in a casual suit.

Hindi naman sa iyon ang sout niya palagi but most of the time, I saw her wearing the same color as yesterday. I assumed it was her favorite color.

"Picture kayo, bro? What do you think?" Malokong sabi ni Kevin. "Tawagin ko na ba-"

"You better not do anything or I will surely tear that diplomas in your hand," banta ko sa kanya.

He run, laughing. It's our senior year graduation ceremony today. I was still on my blue toga when Kim pulled me for a picture. She's my best friend.

"Smile, Asher. My God!" She said and even pinched my cheeks.

I just rolled my eyes at napipilitang ngumiti sa camerang hawak niya. Pagkatapos 'non ay pinuntahan ko na sila Mommy. They are waiting for me outside of the venue for a small celebration.

Palabas na sana ako pero nakita ko ulit ang kapatid ni Shan. She in a hurry kaya agad akong gumilid para makadaan siya. She even dumped Kim but hindi na siya nakapag-sorry dahil nga nagmamadali siya. Naiinis tuloy si Kim na lumapit sa'kin.

"That bitch," she whispered.

"Calm down, Kim. She in a hurry," nakatanggap naman ako ng masamang tingin sa kanya.

"Seriously, Asher? So you're still crushing that girl, huh?" Tanong niya habang naglalakad kami.

"Why not? She's enchanting," I reasoned out.

It's true, she really is beautiful. The first time I saw her was three months ago. It was just a glimpse of her. Hinatid niya lang ang lunch box ng kapatid niya and sakto naman papasok kami ng school ni Kevin then I saw her. Damn she's just so...

"How about the attitude? You don't even know her yet,"

"Oh c'mom, Kim. She's just a crush. I don't have plans of courting her." Umiling ako at pumasok na sasakyan ni Dad.

"Liar," Nakita ko pang umirap siya bago naglakad papunta sa sasakyan ng mommy niya.

I thought I would never see her again because of my busy schedule but it turns out that she went on the same university as mine. Kaso nasa kabilang dulo ang building nila. I could barely see her except kung doon kami kakain sa cafeteria na malapit sa building nila.

"Guys, hindi ako makakasama ngayon," napalingon ako kay Shan.

We are at the parking on our school campus, deciding which club are we in just to hang out with the gang. It's Friday and we use to drink after a week of hell in school.
