(Tagalog words ahead. So much tagalog, I guess.)
*Ella's point of view
I wasn't expecting this actually, no good morning texts nor replies to my messages and voice mail from Nico.
Strange.
I am starting to worry now. We talk everyday. Well, I think he is one of those fake friends who will just take advantage from you then throw you.
Wait, what?
Did he got something from me?
No.
Maybe I could talk to him later at school.
------
At last, he already arrived.
Brace yourself, Ella. He is about to apologize.
Wait for it...

No way.
He just sat on his seat beside me and pulled it a little bit away from it.
What is going on Nicolas Daniel Sanchez Pineda? What's going on?
Family problem again?
I must talk to this kiddo.
I poked him, but he pretended he didn't noticed.
"Nicolas."
He just stared.
"What's wrong with you?"
"Nothing."
"Nothing? Really, now."
"You don't care for me anyways, right?"
What the heck is he saying?
"What? I care for you that's why I am asking."
"You don't need me anyways. So just, don't talk to me."
"Again? Not talk to you again? And wait, what do you mean that I don't need you?"
"Pffft. Common sense."
"What? I really don't understand. Tell me!"
But he didn't answered. He just grabbed his pen and a scratch paper and started scribbling.
What on earth is really going on?
-----
The dismissal bell rang.
Thank goodness.
My classmates sprinted and exited the room. I know Nico won't. He don't sprint over to go out of the room. So I'm confident, that's why I fixed my things first neatly. I think he just can't tell me a while ago beause we were inside a classroom filled with 40+ people. I think it is private.
Now, I'm done fixing my things. Now talk to him, Ella.
"Uhm, Nico?" As I turned my back.
And guess what? I was alone in the room. Great. He just sprinted, and left me alone.
I walked out of the room, and noticed that everyone is now out of the gates. Meaning, I am alone in the campus, I think.
I decided to walk around the campus para makapagpahangin naman ako.
And I passed by the covered court.
And there he is.
