GAVIN'S POV
we're at the living room and i'm staring at xyree
"what?" she asked
"i'm finding the right words, i'm not really good at this so please gi-"
"if you're gonna waste my time i'll just leave" she cut me off
"no, please i-i just, how do i say it?" i said
for the first time in my life i'm genuinely scared of the thought of being rejected, guess this is my karma
i took a deep breath and gathered all of my strength to speak
"listen, remember when i told you that i like you? i mean it xy, i don't know when or how it happened i just felt it" i said
she didn't said a thing
"i know you said that i should leave you alone but as i've said, i hate seeing you with matthew and i hate to admit it but i'm jealous" i continued
"just please give me a chance to prove it, that my feelings for you is real and genuine" i said as i sighed heavily and looked down
i heard her sigh
"look gavin, matthew's courting me for a while now and i'm not gonna lie i know in myself that i have feelings for him, now hindi ko alam kung paano kita bibigyan ng space sa buhay ko kung nandyan na si matthew, it's too complicated" she said
nag-angat ako ng tangin bago sumagot
"just think about it okay? you don't have to answer it right away but if you did give me a chance i will prove myself i swear to god" i replied
"what about your girlfriend then huh?" she asked
"i'll break up with her" i said
"what!?" she asked in disbelief
"it's not only because of you okay? i don't like her from the start, well fine maybe a little but i made her my girlfriend for you to leave me alone and i know that's a dick move that's why i'm gonna make things right" i replied
"i still don't know gavin, after all you did? i really don't know" she replied
"that's why i told you, you don't have to answer right away i'll wait for you" i said
she nodded
"if that's all i'll get going" she said
"okay, hatid na kita" i said
"no it's fine, i brought my car with me it's parked outside your house" she replied
"oh okay, hatid nalang kita sa gate" i said
i walked her out of my house and reached the gate
she walked towards her car
"hey xy" i said
i walked towards her and cupped her cheeks
i looked at her for a couple of minutes and kissed her forehead
"i like you, i really do" i said
i looked at her and she smiled at me
"i know, you already said it" she replied
pumasok na siya sa kotse niya at pinaandar 'to
"take care" i said
she nodded and drove away
i entered my house and went straight to my bed
so this is how it feels to be inlove?
this unfamiliar feeling, i like it i never felt it before not even with celestia
i guess grandma's right after all
