Yesterday Dream (Not An Angel Series #6)

🥀Epilogue

"Wait a minute, I forgot something." I stopped walking when I remembered the handkerchief I had forgotten in the library. "I left the handkerchief on our desk."

Kumunot ang noo ni Yen. "Tara, samahan na kita." Nauna ito sa paglalakad.

Tumango ako at sumunod lang. We hadn't gone far from the library so we quickly got back there.

Nagsisimula narin magdilim, Kakaunti nalang ang estudyanteng nadadaanan namin. I no longer wondered why there weren't many people inside.

I looked at the table where we sat earlier. Surprise passed over my face when I didn't see a handkerchief on top of it.

Only one woman was sitting and frowning while staring at the paper in her hand. May sinusulat siya doon, panay ang bura at punit sa papel.

I couldn't take my eyes off the woman who was seriously focused on the paper. A few strands of hair that she puts behind her ears slips back to her face.

Wala akong hilig sa babaeng madaming kolerete sa mukha but I can't help but admire her even if her face is covered with some shiny make up. Bumaling ang aking mata sa buhok niyang nakatali na mas lalo bumagay sa ayos niya ngayon.

I was watching so much in the distance that I didn't realize that Yen approached the place of the girl I had been watching.

Sumunod ako rito upang pigilan, pero hindi ko nagawa. Nanatili ako sa likod ni Yen pero nasa ilang layo ang distansya namin.

"Excuse me, Miss." She caught the girl's attention by tapping softly on the desk.

I can't explain what I'm feeling right now, I almost ran out of air when she looked up at Yen. There is a trace of tiredness in her eyes, parang ang hirap kausapin. Seryoso lang siya habang titig na titig sa babaeng nasa harapan niya.

"Oh?" Tinaasan niya ito ng kilay.

My lips parted. There's a part of me that wants to be in Yen's position. I want us to reach the point of making eye contact with her.

I closed my eyes tightly. Fuck! What are you thinking now, Chavion?! That's just a girl! You need to focus on studying not for other people.

Yen's face showed that she did not like the behavior of the woman in front of us. She tried to calm herself before speaking.

"Have you noticed a handkerchief here?" She pointed to where my handkerchief was placed earlier. "Diyan mismo sa inuupuan mo."

Saglit siya tumigil sa ginagawa at umangat ulit ang tingin kay Yen. "Ah, The one with the name Chav on the handkerchief?'" There was no trace of enthusiasm in her voice.

My heart beat faster when she mentioned my name. It was so nice to hear when she said it.

"Yes," lumingon muna si Yen sa akin. Agad ko binalik ang madalas ko ipakitang emosyon sa tuwing may nakakausap at nakikita akong tao.

May tinuro ang babae kung saan nakalagay ang ilang libro. "Nandoon, isinabit ko doon."

"What? Bakit nando'n?" Bahagyang tumaas ang boses ni Yen.

Mas lalo tumaas ang kilay niya nang mag tanong pa ito.

"Akala ko pamunas sa libro." She shrugged. She lazily stood up to pick up the handkerchief hanging on the side. "Oh, hindi ko 'yan ipinunas. Inilagay ko lang doon, para may pamunas ang ibang estudyante kapag may alikabok sa libro." Inabot niya kay Yen ang panyo.

Muli siya bumalik sa upuan hindi para umupo kundi kunin ang mga papel na nasayang dahil sa ilang beses niyang pag-ulit sa ginagawa.

She didn't even glance before leaving. Diretso ang tingin palabas ng library.
