"Chrysanthemums," Azra answered.






Maeve's POV

Day 3

I decided to talk to Jo and our friends after class. Now, we were in my condo. They mattered to me, and I thought this was the right thing to do.

We gathered in the living room to be more comfortable while having the talk.

"Pre, ano ba sasabihin mo? Kinakabahan naman ako," Colai said, drinking her second glass of water.

"Kaya nga," Gwyn added.

"Actually... si Jo lang naman kakausapin ko. Pero para ko na kayong kapatid kaya gusto ko alam niyo rin," I said to them.

"Ako? Bakit ako?" Jo asked nervously.

"Do you like Azra? Because if you really like her, sasabihin ko na tumigil na siya sa panliligaw sa akin. Bros first syempre," I said while the three of them tried to hold back their laughter.

"Bakit? Gusto mo na ba siya?" Jo asked, pretending to be serious.

"I want to give us a chance. Pero kung makakasira 'to ng friendship natin—"

The three of them started laughing.

"Wooh! Effective!" Jo exclaimed, then hugged me.

"Ew! Don't hug me! Why are you laughing?"

"Kasi pinagseselos ka lang naman namin diyan. Si Jo inalay namin," Colai explained.

"Ui! Wag ka magalit ah," Gwyn said.

"Selos ka?" Jo asked.

"Ewan ko sa inyo! Ililibre niyo ako ng isang buwan dahil sa ginawa niyong 'yan!" I said, pretending to be mad.

"Oo na. Ako na. Idea ko naman," Gwyn said.

"Ikaw?! Akala ko ikaw pinakamatino sa inyong tatlo."






Day 12

Maeve's POV

Today marked day 12 of Azra courting me. I had to admit that Azra had been consistent. Even though she was still a party girl, always going to the bar, she still updated me every time, even when I didn't ask her to. I trusted her, but the guys checking her out pissed me off.

It was Friday night, so I was in my condo, looking for a movie on Netflix, ready to stay up late. I had a bottle of red wine to enjoy. My friends had asked me to go to the bar, but I refused. It was a good thing they didn't push me this time because I wanted some alone time.

Okay, fine. I was hoping to spend time with Azra, but she didn't invite me or anything. Should I ask her? I also stayed because Azra told me earlier that she would just stay in her condo too.

I picked up my phone, ready to message her, but I saw her typing already. Nakakakaba. Miss niya rin kaya ako kahit ilang oras pa lang kaming di nagkikita? Hehe.

Azra: typing...

Azra: Busy?

Napakatipid naman. Pero parang kanina pa siya nagtatype. Wait muna ako nang 5 minutes before I reply para di mukhang clingy. 😎
