Khalil Spinel Evangelista's P.O.V.

"Are you serious? Ako talaga hinahamon mo diyan?" She ask habang nakataas ang isang kilay at nakaturo sa stall. Its an archery stall dedicated to merida whoever hit the 10 bulls eye to 10 dartboards will have the price. A big black bear.

I have confident in my skills im sure ill beat her to it.

"Well yeah why not, scared to lose?" I ask her back with a teasing smile.

She scoff "as if" she saunter to the stall and show the clerk her wrist, who in return immediately gave her a bow and 10 arrows before pointing at the line where she should stand and shoot.

I prefer to stand and watch on the sideline near the stall to see her hits.

Does she even know how to do this?

Alright she's holding it right, closing one of her eyes and shoo-- what the hell? Bulls eye?

My jaw just drop open, how did she know how to use this things?!

When i look back at her she's already on her third arrow and stepping back for some reason.

Bulls eye, again!

I saw how her eyes flicker to me for a second with a smirk on her lips before she continues...she looks so concentrated, she looked beautiful when she's fully immersed as she do archery, its like no one can take their eyes away from her and yes even the expectators stopped by and watched her.

She hit all of it in just a matter of a few minutes, all right in the middle.

She have this victory smirk on her lips as she plays with the bow on her hand while walking back to the stall, only stopping when she's a few inches away from me, she didnt pay attention to the crowd around us and to their claps and praises pata bang sanay na siya sa ganun.

"Im part italian and archery is my hobby since i can say a word spinel how the hell did you not know that you dummy" she said it amusely with a lighthearted look as she thrust the bow on my chest "your turn" she step aside with this a proud smirk on her lips that makes me chuckle.

I guess im not the only one that hides part of us that not many knows.

"HU HA GO SPINEL!" she shouted with a huge smile on her lips as she claps her hand loudly while i get on the line.

I shake my head amusely as i laugh under my breath, even if i lose i dont think i'll regret challenging her.

I guess this makes her happy.

And happiness looks good on her.

And as expected i lose by 2 shots.

"Mercí" pagpapasalamat niya sa stall person as he gave her, her prize.

Halos halati ng height niya ang bear and she's 5'6 "give it here i'll carry it" saad ko sa kanya.

She looks at me then at the bear bago muling tumingin sakin at umiling but she's handing me the bear?

"Hold it for yourself, its yours, mom will throw it away if she sees me with it so sayo nalang" she said it with a shrug as she pass me the bear. why would tita gladys do that? Is she that really that cruel?
