smile for him

All the Photos are damn good.
This is practice of every college of our university.

"Those four kids are really good. I am happy we let them do these." One of the seniors said.

They are with us looking at the photos.
Sky, Fon Kwan and Time are with me.

"You mean p' they did this overnight?" Fon asked the seniors.

"Yes nong." The senior answered Fon
"They even don't went home till they are done. I only send them back to their dorms this morning when I get in our office this morning." He added.

"Wait Thump, have you gave those kids breakfast?" His companion asked.

"Yes I did." P'' Thump said

"We will go ahead na,we check on other things." P'' Thump told us and they leave.

I was just looking at them till they are gone.

"Hey" Kwan waved her hands in front of me.
"Don't be jealous. Those are our Ps' graduating. They are the senior journalist of our university. which your eyeglasses and his friends are members." She explained.

My head turned and looked at the photos.
Yes I know p' Thump but I don't know he knows My eyeglasses.

"Can you stop calling him eyeglasses? It sounds a bit offensive" Time said.

I sighed.
I need to call him not his real name.
I need a code.
So when we talk about him. People who can hear won't know it is him. Or I can even freely talk about him even when he is around

"Van Gough" I said.

"Why?" Sky asked.

"Eyeglasses and camera" I said.

"Better atleast also a name" Time said.

"Nuea. You gotta look at this." Kwan said And I walked fast.

"This is nice" I said.

It was my photo of shooting the basket. Like I take a pose for the photographer to take it
But they never asked us to have our pose.

We are not even aware that they where there during practice.

Then everything around me seems blur. But still you can recognize the faces.

"It is like peace in the middle of chaos." Time said.

I took a photo of it on my phone.

"They have signatures of took the photos." Fon said.
"Toh!" She exclaimed.

I smirked.

"It is like a masterpiece." Fon said.

"I wish I can meet them today. I missed them yesterday. They leave even before practice was done." Sky said.

"Well they need to go to the other colleges." Time said.
I walked to Time and look at what he is looking at. Another player taking his shot.
Time showed me who took the photo and it is Toh.

"Look at Van Gough's works" Time said.

"Mm" Fon said.

"Kajao also." Kwan said.

"I like what Daisy took the blupers!" She said.
I agree he took funny shots.

"I hope they can add some captions on it" Fon said.

"The journalist will I am sure most of these photos will be seen in our University paper." Time said.

How can I ask his name. How can I be close to him.
How can I get his number?

"Ay Nuea!" Fon shouted
I looked at them they are already far from me I almost run to them.

Back to warm up today is game day.
My team walked to the gymnasium.
Cheerer are dancing and game is on set. In any minute we will start.

And there he is.
The guy wearing eyeglasses.
With camera on his hands. With his friends.

They take pictures of everything.

The games begins.
Time to the I glance at him nod at him or smile at him.
Hope he catched my smile
Hope it reached him.
My smile is for him.

The cheer of the crowd for both teams are noisy.
During game break it is like battle of cheers from two colleges.

I walked towards Van Gough and his friends. Smiling at him the person behind the camera.

But the camera went down and so does the face of the person holding it
He bowed and scrolls through the pictures.

I sit beside Fon.
"Does he takes my pictures?" I sulk.

"Come on na." Fon cheered me up.

"Water please." Sky said.

But why does our team does not have water.

"Nong do you have waters to share?" Kwan asked.

Van Gough and his friends bring out untouched sealed bottled water.

"They might need that, they also have a long day" I said.

"It is okay p' we can buy again later." Jao said.

I smiled and get Van Gough holds.

"Thanks" I said and smiled
He just nod at me.

Damn he is not even affected by my smile.

"Stop sulking" Kwan said.

"Good luck p" Van Gough said.
I looked at him and nod at me and crack a smile.

Damn!.
I nod back at him and drink all the content of water bottle from him.

"Let's go!" P'' Touch said and we went back to the game.

"Being it on na. I am powered up?" I said.

"Ohow!" Sky cheered.
And our cheerer also become noisier.

The second half continued.
And we won
5 points.

I looked at Van Gough he is already gone.

Where are they?

I looked around and they are really gone.

"Kwan Fon do you know where they are?" I asked

"How would we know they just left" Fon said.

"I think they need to submit the photos taken" Kwan said.

We took our rest and shower then lunch.
We are in our faculty for lunch.

Van Gough and his friends are in our canteen.
They are eating while two laptops are open.

And three cameras are on the table

I wish I can see all that.

"Van Gough is too busy" Time whispered to me.
"But someone is here" he added.

People come and take pictures with them.
I gaze at Van Gough his face is stick on the laptop.

Som looked at us but I looked away not to be caught.

Prao andher friends come.
"Nuea we have to go" she said.

I waiid at my friends and leave with Prao. And the rest of them.
Van Gough acted like he does not saw me. Or he didn't even care.

Does he cares?

But now I am more determined.
Get him

I texted Sky
"Please mung keep an eye of them na. I will be with you in a while. After this thing with Prao.
