Axel Morata POV

Nilingon ko si Gus na kanina pa may hinihintay sa gate ng school. "Who are you waiting for? Let's go." Inilingan niya lang ako at hindi pinansin. Napahalukipkip akong sinundan ang tinitingnan niya. May humintong sasakyan sa gate ng school at mas na-excite si Gus ng may lumabas na pamilyar na babae dito. Napatuwid ako sa aking pagkakatayo nang makita kong sino ito. It's her, our neighbor.

Tinawag ni Gus ang babae sa malayo palang, nanatili lang akong nakatayo at hindi makagalaw. I can't believe that she's here in front of me right now. Once in a blue moon lang namin ito makita ni Alex dahil nasa Surigao siya. Habang lumalapit siya ay mas nag-uunahan ang pagkarera ng puso ko.

Damn! She's so beautiful. Ipinakilala siya sa akin ni Gus at hindi mawala ang tingin ko sa kanya. Para akong nanaginip lang. For sure Alex will be happy when he found out that she was here.

"3rd Year- kindness" iyan ang sagot niya kay Gus nang tanungin siya nito kung ano ang section nito. Halos magdiwang ang tenga ko. We're classmate!

She introduced herself in front of us. At halos tawagin ko ang lahat ng santo na sana'y sa tabi ko siya paupuin at halos mapasimba ako ng maramdaman ko siyang naupo sa tabi ko. Answered prayer!

I act cold in front of her, I don't want to give her an idea that I know her, that I have a crush on her.

She's quiet all the time, I also noticed how she distanced herself to our classmate. It's as if she's content to be alone. Every time we have a classmate who wants to talk to her, she immediately closes herself off from them.

What happened? Is she like this? Is this her personality?

Ilang beses ko siyang nahuhuling tulala sa klase, ilag sa mga tao. Kahit sa amin ni Gus alam kong may tinatago siya.

"What happen to her Gus?" nasa gym kami ni Gus habang hinihintay ang ibang member ng varsity team.

"Who? Riel?" tanong niya habang nagsisintas ng sapatos. Tinanguan ko siya.

Nagkibit balikat siya. "I don't know. I feel something happened at her former school. Even Dad wondered why Riel suddenly chose to study here. Hindi naman kasi talaga kami nagkikita ni Riel, kapag may mga event lang na mahalaga at nagmi-meetup ang mga parents namin. I know Riel is so fond of Surigao kaya nga mas gugustuhin niyang mag-aral at mag-isa doon kaysa makasama ang mga magulang niya dito. Kaya napakalaking palaisipan rin sa amin kung ano talaga ang nangyari sa kanya roon." Tiningnan ako ng kakaiba ni Gus.

"Why are you so interested in her, Axel? Don't tell me you will line her up with one of your list of girls?" I smirked at him. Nawala na ang pinag-usapan naming dahil isa-isa ng nag-sidatingan ang mga ka-team namin kaya na-divert na rin ang atensyon sa kanila.

However, I don't know if she noticed it. Almost all of our boy's classmates are glancing at her. I clenched my jaw while looking at them darkly. Days went by like that. I am always excited to go to school because of her kahit hindi naman kami ganun ka nag-uusap.

Ilang beses na rin niya akong nahuhuli na may kasamang babae. I don't want to give her a bad impression about me pero anong magagawa ko, this is my promise to Alex. I want to help the girls who need my help, emotionally and physically.

I closed my eyes one time when I saw how disgusted she was when she saw me kissing another girl.

Kailangan ko na bang tumigil?

When she said to me that she wants me to stop what I'm doing to all the girls. I can't hide my smile. Siya lang ata ang makakapag-patino sa akin. No! Siya lang ang papayagan kong kontrolin ako at disiplinahin.
