Do you believe?

A storm is coming

Delli's Pov

It's been a week since the class started but something is still wrong.

Ever since I saw her, whether it was her or not, Jaycee's been stiff to me. Like she's not what she used to be. Is my intuition right or am I just imagining things? Which is which? I don't know, how could I know.

Anyway, thinking about it won't do anything about it. I must do something to clear my thoughts.

......

I must do something, that's what I said. But today, I was in charge on cleaning and I can't hold her up so I let her go for this day. It really bothers me though, is it something I did? or something just happened during her vacation that she's not comfortable talking about. It doesn't matter for me, whether something happened because it won't change the relationship we have.

Relationship we have.

Now that I think about it, I still left her confession to me hanging.

I haven't given her my respond.

But is it still the same? because I really thought that she was just fooling around.

Jett's POV

" I'm off guys, see you tomorrow"

I grabbed my stuffs and went off. It's been a while since our practice for our upcoming winter cup competition and I haven't seen Delli that much. Speaking of the witch, that Delli's having trouble with, Jaycee, how did I know? Jaycee's walking home alone.

I approached her, tapped her back and as she looked at me she looked more trouble than Delli.

"hey sup,"

"Ah, Jett.." She responded weakly, not so her. I wonder what's wrong..

"I've been calling you out."

"Ah, sorry. I might have been spacing out.."

Even though what I said was a lie to test her, she responded. Something is wrong with her and that is for sure. 

"are you alright?"

"eh? ya, sure. Why wouldn't I be?"

" Do you want to grab some coffee? I know a cafe that serves a splendid coffee around your area."

"Ah, I don't really mind."

We walked to that cafe I was talking about and ordered some coffee, this is the moment where I've been waiting for but as I looked at her staring deeply in her cup of coffee, something tells me that I should wait for her to open it up. That's, it might be because she's still thinking about something, and asking her right now won't help her solve it.

"Delli, she's a bit of a slowpoke person, right? "

" ah??"

"It really bothers me how she settle with things slowly, respond to things slowly and there I thought she wasn't taking every thing she takes slowly seriously. But as I got to know more about her, I realized something. She have a strong resolve on what she says, A "no" will be forever a "no" and a "yes" will always be a "yes" without doubts and regrets. That's the reason why she takes things slowly, why she doesn't respond that fast because she wants the best answer she could give. "

And as I look at Jaycee to give her a cheerful smile, all I got was more devastated look in her eyes. Why? It's not about the respond. It's more about something.

" Regardless of time, she'll take it slowly. I see, thanks Jett for cheering me up. I'll definitely want to go back in this cafe. hehe "

Then as she gave me that smile which doesn't feel light and right  rather it's very heart breaking.

--- Dell's POV

The next day I went early to school and went to look out for Jaycee but she's still not here. Instead of Jaycee, I was even more surprise from what I am seeing right now. It was Jett, sitting in my chair. I approached her and cling my bag at the side table as she looked at me with serious face.
Way to go in the morning, something's up.

"You're giving me creeps, stop staring at me like that"

I started our conversation with that ice breaker but she still have that expression on her face that's things are serious this time.

" Don't worry, It'll be alright. "

I smiled at her, just to ease those furrowed eyebrows of hers but it still won't budge. Instead, she sighed and stood up from my chair.

" It's the time you're fighting with. "

She said as she walked away from me.

Time??

The class started and the only thing on my mind that keeps on circling is " T-I-M-E ".
What's with the time?

The bell rang for the lunch break.
I went to the comfort room and while I was washing my hands, I suddenly hear things I never thought I'll hear.

" for g**sake , things are in our favor since white day is almost here, another rival will be out. "

"We'll have more guys chase for us you say! Hahaha"

" So it was really true then?? "

" Someone heard her talk with their adviser yesterday, she confirmed it"

" she's a pain in the ass, suddenly coming in and steal our guys and now she's moving out. But I guess that'll be better."

" yeah right.. "

The rest of their conversation blurred out and the thing that ringed my ear was "she's moving out". Thinking who might be that someone who just came in.

My body started to move on its own as it headed to our classroom.
As if it was looking for something, my eyes followed at what my body was looking at.

She's not here

My  feet started to walk out and helped in search with my body and eyes.

Every organ on my body suddenly worked together with a goal, I can feel everything working out. But there's just this one thing in me who haven't processed anything yet, my mind.

'What am I looking for?'
'Why am I having this cold sweat?'
'Why does my heart beats so fast?'
'why is that I feel so uneasy?"

I looked around the school but her shadows were nowhere to be found. As I catch my breath at the corridor, I suddenly heard the rain started to fall.

"I don't care anymore... "

I clenched my fist and started to run towards the rain. It doesn't matter to me anymore, I just want to talk to her. I dashed through the rain and didn't even noticed it, I arrived at her place in no time. I knocked at her door calmly at first, but no one answered it. I continued knocking on it, and as time goes by I gradually added some force. I decided that I'll just destroy her door when suddenly, someone from her neighborhood went out and looked at me.

" She already moved out. There's no one in there now. "

Those simple words..

'moved out'

Those 2 words just made my world started to crumble.
