Tanabata No Monogatari

Chapter 7- Convey Your Feelings

Okay, so, I'm a little pissed on something personal, so I'm just gonna rush this since I need to clear my head for a little while. But, even though my mood is like this, it won't affect the story. 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Since he asked for my number, he's been texting me non-stop. Telling me stories about his recent kills, sometimes, stupidity of some people. 

My brother hummed from behind me and nearly gave me a heart attack! "You're very patient, Lei. Who knew you could withstand the small exp in that Dungeon and level to 56." He said and just left. Just like that.

I was sitting in the classroom next to my one-year crush. I wish he wouldn't stay away from me. I just wanted to get to know him. Then, my train of thoughts were cut off by the vibration from my pocket! I couldn't read it because the teacher was still in front! 

At break time, I tried to read it, but the school vice principal was roaming around the campus. If I had my phone confiscated, who knew what would happen. 

My bestfriend, Patrick, nudged me on my arm. 

"You should eat now. We have a test later on." He told me as he began eating his food himself. 

"You can't have brainpower if you don't eat!" The other one shot at me. He goes by the name, Wesley. He's one of my countable friends here. 

"I guess so." I murmured and shrugged to myself and stood up. While heading to the canteen to buy a sandwich and a can of sprite. 

I ate quickly because the bell will ring any minute now. I chugged down the sprite, thankful for its carbonated contents, I began to relax. 

Time flew by and it was now dismissal. I grabbed my phone from my pocket and texted him. 

We exchanged more messages till we both slept. 

As time passed, I'm starting to know him bit by bit. 

After school, I went back home and relaxed for a few minutes. My eyes were starting to droop close. I was almost asleep. 

"YUKIO! Come down and help me wash the clothes!" My mom hollered from downstairs. I nearly jumped out of my skin. 

"Alright!" I sleepily hollered back. I inwardly sighed because I'm a bit late in going online again. 

Mom and I finished the laundry, and my eye caught the clock. IT WAS ALREADY 7PM! I was about to dash to my room to online my character, but before I had the chance to run, my mom was already placing her fist on her hips.

"Hold it, young lady! Where are you going?" Mom called after me. 

"To my room?" I said questioningly. (Is this even a word?) 

My mom then switched her arms to her chest. Crossing them together. "Then play all night again? No, you don't. You're going to help me cook dinner!" 

Oh no. I mentally shrugged at myself and went back to the kitchen to help her cook. 

While we were waiting, my phone vibrated. 

>> Ms. TL, are you going online today? -EL

I quickly replied back. >> It depends actually. 

I sneaked text messages to him secretly. Because once she finds out, she would be furious. She doesn't want me texting. Sometimes is okay, everyday is not. 

After we cooked, we called Jude and ate dinner. By that time, it was 9pm. The war is gonna start anytime soon.

The next day was actually our camping trip to Lucban, Quezon. It's nice here really. Fresh air, cool breeze, and pulsing phone. . .. . . .

Wait... What? Pulsing Phone? 

I retrieved my phone at my back pants pocket. 

>> How's the trip? -EL

I smiled. >> It's fine. Sadly, I can't go swimming cause I got freaking sore eyes. 

I have actually seen a picture of him. He kinda looks nice. But hey, I ain't judging. With his picture in mind, I had a small vision of him taking care of me, which made a small smile form on my lips. 

I also had this weird imagination. That he would court me. . . . Nah. . . . . Impossible. . . . No one has ever shown interest in me. . . . I'm not as beautiful as other girls my age. 

**--

The day was over. We had so much fun! And now, we're going home. 

I think it was already 7pm. When I had received a text. I looked around from the window of the bus. It was dark, so I guess I've been asleep for a while. 

I groggily got my phone, since I had fallen assleep with my face on the window, I rubbed the sleep from my eyes and tried to focus on reading the message. 

It was a lyrics from the song, 'Meron ba' 

I smiled as I read the lyrics. I find it sweet. 

>> The song's sweet I replied to him. 

>> I know. And, Ms. Yukio Lei Reyes, May I court you?
