Savy's Pov

For the past months, I learn and discovered many things. Many things that is concerned on me and the people who surrounds me.

Last months, I get to know Chance and heard Arzen's true intentions on me.

For Chance, I discovered that he is a grandson of our principal, the principal whom own this school too. Most students here in this school didn't know that information, because Chance is not a type of person who love socializing. He is not showy , he is more a shy person. Until now I still can't believe that Chance likes me, like how the f-ck did that happen? I'm sure that I'm not that pretty for being a deserving girl for him because he's handsome as f-ck. I'm not intelligent like him, I'm not rich like him so what's his reasons?

For the months that passed, I learn to appreciate Chance presence. He is so concerned about me, he even know if I didn't eat breakfast. He is always 'to the rescue" when I'm in trouble, he is like my hero in the story of my life, he is too good to be real. Arch made me realize many things but Chance made me feel any kinds of feelings. With Chance around, I felt safe and secured. I felt my heart beats fast too, sometimes I'm awkward on him. I'm not numb, I know that he really likes me because if he wasn't, why would he put efforts in every thing he did to me? Plus, the kiss on the car that happened months ago. That was even mentioned on the things I reminisced.

The days that I've spent with Chance made me back to my old self. I noticed that I often laugh and smile right now, unlike those days that Arch just died. I know I lost my hope that time, I thought all the good people came in my life will leave me. I just think that it will be good if I just stand alone but I forgot the statement; no one is capable of living alone, because we need foods to live and even if we earn money in our own, we still wouldn't be able to buy a rice if there's no people do the farming. We wouldn't be able to earn money without employer or other people because here in the world we are called society. Society is a group of people that works or function together. So in short, you can't live with just yourself.

In my situation, I thought I can live by just myself. I thought I can do it. But then Chance made me realize that in life many people will come in, some of them will leave you anytime and some will stay forever. Like him, when he come in my life there's no time he is not around. He always follow me and check everything about me. I started to like him being around me, he just have this bright aura surrounds him that if he went beside you, you'll have a bright day too. He is a good company, Arch is a good company too but they have difference. I just feel the comfort with Arch because I can see him as my brother, but with Chance he is different and I can't explain it. Whenever he's around, I become happy all of a sudden.

As for Arzen, two months ago he confessed his feelings towards me. I'm shock of course because I didn't expect that he is serious on what he did everytime I'm around. I thought he was just annoying me. But that time he confessed I'm so torn if I told him the truth that I just see him as an annoying scumbag and a pest in my eyes or just keep silent. But on the other side of my brain said that I will told the truth rather than keeping silent because he might expect something that will never gonna happen. Arzen is a good guy, I know. He is funny to be with but most of the time he is annoying. As the decision build up on my mind, I told him the truth.

"I didn't mean to hurt you Arzen but I didn't want to keep my words either. I wanna keep silent because I don't wanna hurt you but I also know that I will just hurt you more if I'll make you expect things that are not gonna happen. I'm so flattered because a handsome guy like you likes someone like me. You deserve better, you didn't deserve a commoner like me. I'm not for you, I only saw you as an annoying scumbag and a flirtatious guy. I admit, I like to go bonding with you because you are fun to be with but it ends there. I- I don't like you Arzen... I don't feel the same affection you felt for me. I'm sorry..."

That's what I told to him. He is still wearing his uniform that time because he went directly on my school to fetch me and bring to an expensive restaurant just to confess that he likes me. When he heard my explanation he becomes silent but I know he is hurt by the emotion showed on his eyes. People can lie through words and actions but the emotion in your eyes didn't. It's raining that time, when I'm done telling him what I really feel I run outside because for some reason I felt pity for him. I don't have umbrella with me so I just let the rain drain me wet. The thing is, even though I rejected Arzen, he still follow me outside and offered me his umbrella. I'm shock because I didn't expect him to do that. I didn't know too if where did he get that umbrella. After he gave me the umbrella he said something.

"It's okay, I understand your reasons. I'm not gonna push you to like me too. I just remembered awhile ago that I'm going to Canada, mom will send me to that country because she wants me to study medicine there instead. A realization hit me, even if you'll like me too and later on have a relationship, it's hard because we are miles away from each other. Don't worry Freezy, I can understand." then he turned back to walk away.

He was drained wet that time because he gave me his umbrella. Even if he already vanished from my sight, I'm still looking on the spot where he was standing awhile ago. I will surely miss him if he will go to Canada because no one will annoy me. But after that day, I just heard that he is already on his flight to Canada. I'm sad of course but I realized too that it's better that way because if he's still here it would be akward because as time passed by me and Aunt Aeryn becomes close and she often invite me to have coffee in there house. And Arzen would be there anytime because it's his house.

That's why when I reminisce the past, I already know Chance and Arzen's point of view because they revealed the truth to me.

When I heard the bell rang, my thoughts stopped because that means it's already time to go home and I'm gonna treat Chance.

God! This guy is too much! He shared with my lunch on lunch time and now I'm gonna buy him a street foods.

As I cussed Chance on my mind, I keep my things too on my bag. After doing it, I went out and run towards the gate. I'm hoping Chance will not notice me so that I can escape with our deal.

I'm near on the gate when someone shouted.

"Hey why are you running? You can't go home yet, you still need to treat me."

I stopped and sighed heavily, tssk... My money that is for my snacks tomorrow is in danger. Mom already gave me my allowance in this week and I'm afraid that tomorrow I'll be sitting on my chair and just watching my classmates happily eating their snacks.

This guy is really annoying sometimes.
