Touch Love

Chapter 1

I am quietly reading a book under a tree here on campus. it's break time and I don't eat at lunch time so I focus my time more on reading.

I lost my concentration when there was a sudden noise around me. I looked where the noise was. My eyes rolled when I saw the school's arrogant basketball player who is always in the school's newspaper. he is Japan's number 1 high school player. because of that title, he became very famous and became arrogant.

Eiji Sawakita, the Ace Player of Sannoh.

"Zia!" I turned around when someone called my name and waved at Shane.

"Hey Doc," she greeted me as I closed the book I was reading

I plan to become a doctor. actually that's my destiny. I am the next family doctor of our family. because as long as possible I should be able to study different fields. but the main field I want is medical science. I want to be a pediatrician.

I like what I do so I don't feel pressured. if I ever become a Pediatrician, I still need to study different fields. I need to have a background because I am a future family doctor. so I don't have time for other things. my attention should always be on the book.

"Nakikita mo yun?" Nilingon ko ang tinuturo ni Miguel saakin. Nakita ko ang isang babae naglalakad abala ito sa pagbabasa ng libro. Mukhang nerd pero may itsura sya. Mahaba ang kulay brown na buhok. Medyo curly ang dulo nun. Medyo may kaputian. Masasabi kong medyo may itsura naman.

"Oh, anong meron sakanya?" Tanong ko naman kay Miguel. Inakbayan naman nya ako habang tinuturo ang babae naglalakad papasok ng building.

"Siya si Cyzia Aurora Anzai, Isa lang naman siya sa mga talented na Apo ni Coach Anzai ng Shohoku High School. Hindi man siya talented sa basketball pero ang kwento saakin ng parents ko. Siya ang Future Family Doctor ng pamilya nila. Kaya magdo-doctor yan. Sya din ang pinakamatalinong estudyante sa campus natin. Kalevel nyan yung matalinong babae sa Kainan Univ. Si Amelia, Kilala mo naman ata yon. Diba?" Mahabang sabi nya. Tumango nalang ako. Siya pala yung laging nanalo sa contest or Quiz bee ng school. Siya daw ang Face of the school dahil nga napakatalino.

"Oh tapos? Anong gagawin?" Tanong ko sakanya. Natalo sa pustahan namin kagabi lintek nayan. Gagawa tuloy ako ng katarantaduhan. Basta si Miguel ang mag uutos talaga kalokohan.

"Gusto namin na mafall mo ang nerd na yon sayo. Madali ka lang naman makadali ng chicks diba? So madali lang sayo landiin si Miss Genius and future doctor. Kalat sa campus na Nerd daw yan si Cyzia. Laging libro ang hawak nyan at bibihira makipag usap sa ibang tao. Dapat mainlab sayo yan sa loob ng tatlong buwan Eiji" napapikit ako sa utos nya saakin. Bakit sa lahat ay yun pa! Baka nga hampasin lang ang libro ng babaeng iyon. Pero ayaw ko napahiya sa mga bugok na ito at ako din naman ang pasimuno nun. Kaya wala akong choice. Tatlong buwan lang naman. Madali lang naman yon.

I was busy reading in my place under the tree when someone suddenly stood in front of me. I looked up, my brow furrowed because I didn't expect who was in front of me.

"Hi..." he hesitantly said to me. I kept looking at him.

"I wanted to tell you something" he was still a bit shaky when he said it.
