Mine (NueaToh FF)

Toh's number

"Aw, Prao. Nuea. You are early na nong. Nong" a senior said.

"We have some snacks here na while we wait for the photographer and others." Our senior said.

Prao and I sit next to each other. But on our own phone.

Sky said Van Gough was asked by p' Thump. And the rest of his friends are left behind.

The door opened and our moon and star last year are here.

Prao and I are in third year. This year they are still choosing our representative from the freshmen.
P'' Touch is my senior moon. And his senior who is now on his last year. And we seldom see him. Is p'Thump.

The door opened and p' Thump entered with his pair. And the door still is open.

My heart skipped a bit.
Van Gough.

P'' Thump oriented him with our other senior.

He never looked at me.
The second years are done now our turn.

I am sorry.
It has to be like this.

Why do I have to be with Prao.
How can I impress him if Prao acts possessive over me.

Prao checks the photos.
I think they are good but he wants more.
So it took us long.

He is so patient with Prao.
I stopped Prao.
"The seniors are waiting. This is good enough" I said and pointed at the photos.

"Noted p'" Van Gough just said.
I stand behind him.
Leaning a bit forward I wanna smell his hair.
No I wanna kiss it.

"P' Touch I think it's your turn na" Van Gough said.

I moved away for he needs to stand to take photo again.

I nearly pulled him down back to his seat and hug him and kiss his head

Shit!!!!!

What is my brain thinking!

Scolding myself.

You can't blame me I have bee eyeing him since last semester.
He was first year by that time then.

I saw him during University Meet. He was carrying his camera.
He was a contestant in a photo contest.
I thought he is my year level.
I just knew it yesterday I am a year ahead of him.

"Nuea. We need to leave." Prao said.

"You can go na nong."our senior said.

"We will take care of Toh and the rest. Your photos will be given to you when ready na" p' Touch said.

Van Gough agreed to p' Touch. They seems close.

I sulked.
But Van Gough smiled at me and waiid at us.

"Then we will leave na." Prao said.

I waiid to all of them and followed Prao.

Van Gough smile is gone when I gaze at him.

I am silent and irritated.
Who will take Van Gough home.

I parked the car. Prao get down like she owns the car.
Whatever.

"Thanks na" she said and smiled and leave.

Fon, Time and Kwan meet me.

"Van Gough took my pictures." I said

They teased me.

"But he also take picture of me and Prao. Those sweet moments on camera you know.
Van Gough even suggested some poses and Prao liked them.
He did not even smiled at me during our turn.
He only smiled when we are about to leave." I said sulking.

"O.... While Sky was happy Jao was with us. Till they are called back to the journals office." Time said.

"Where is Sky? I asked.

"He send them back to the office." Fon said.

I sulked even more.

"We have a game this afternoon na. Get ready." Time said.

I just nod my head.

We went back to the gymnasium for warm up. People starts to flood in again.
So we freshen up. Words of encouragements from coach.
Then game time again.

I looked around and found Van Gough with his friends.
But they are on the other side. Damn our college versus theirs.

I played low.
His college.
Sky looked at me. We are in our seats for a short time out.

Time pulled me and Sky.
He called Som.

"Nong our college is against yours na. We have to play for our colleges na" Time said.

"Susuna na kha" Some said.

"But we are against your college." Time said.

I looked at Van Gough and Som gathered them.

"Good Luck na. P' Time p' Sky. P' Nuea." The four of them said.

I looked at them again.
Van Gough smiled at me and sighed me "susuna."

I smiled back.

Game time.
Their players are good.
We had hard time beating them.
But still we won.

We are now qualified for semi's.

The game just ended. They took some pictures then they leave. Again.
P'' Thump is with them.
I am pushed to the dungeon.

Took my shower and change clothes.
To celebrate we will have a drink tonight.

I fetch Sky again.

We are in a bar. Having our drink. I will drive so I drinked light.
But people started coming.

Is that "Van Gough?" I think I saw him.
I saw p' Touch and p' Thump.

And the rest of their team.
Van Gough his friends and other journalists.

P' Thump waved at us.
We waved back at them.
Sky and Time also looks at them.

Next thing I know p' Thump came to us.
"You gotta see the photos guys. Congratulations!" He said.
He raised his glass and cheers for us.

"I ordered snack for you guys na small thing I can do to cheer you up for winning today." He said.

I drinked everything on my glass.

"P'' can I ask you something?" I asked.
He looked at me in serious mode.

He sighed me to follow him.
It is quiet in this side of the bar.

"What is it nong." He asked.

I looked at Toh and his friends.
"Toh." I said.

"What about Toh?" He asked.

"P' I like him" I said.

He gave me serious look.
"Not my junior Nuea. Play with everyone else but not my highschool juniors." He said fiercely.

"P' who said I am playing with Toh. I played around till I found him. I stopped since I laid my eyes on him." I said.

He looked at me in disbelief.

I showed him my phone.

"Shit Nuea!" He said loud after seeing my phone gallery.

"But I warned you" he said.

"Promise p' if you treat him like your little brother. You can do anything to me if I hurt him" I said.

"Save this" he said and gave me Van Gough number.
