Kiane POV

This is ridiculous. Really. Here I am, standing infront of a boy who I liked. Keyword: likED. With the -ed. As in past tense. He also likes me but recently I had a change of heart. I knew this wasn't gonna work out.

I sighed and handed him a letter. Just as I handed it, I turned my back eyeing my best friend who was hiding behind a wall. I smirked. My hands in my pocket. She poked her head to see me-wait no, behind me. I didn't dare turn knowing he's reading the letter. I quickened my pace. As soon as I went to her, I wrapped my arm to her neck and dragged her.

"Hey!! You didn't have to drag me!!" She whined. I rolled my eyes. A smirk still plastered on my face. She removed my arm and walked beside me. Recovering from the position she was earlier, she looked at me expectingly.

"So?" She said with a brow raised, causing my smirk to widen.

"Binigay ko na." Sabi ko. Sorry ah? Sanay ako sa english eh. Hehe.

"Haha. I know. I was kidding. You should've seen his face though. It was priceless!! Hahahahaha!!!" Sabi niya sabay hawak sa tiyan niya habang humahalakhak. Isa pa tong inglesyera eh. Umiling-iling na lang ako. Hindi pa rin natatanggal ang ngisi ko.

"Oh well. Bahala siya." Sabay kibit-balikat. Kinuha ko phone ko at tinignan ang oras. 11:45 AM. Malapit na mag-lunch.

"Tara. Lunch tayo. Same place." Yaya ko. Tumingin siya saken at ngumiti.

"Ge. Ikaw naman ang manlibre ah?" Tumango ako at binalik ang ngiti. Inakbayan ko siya habang palabas kami ng school.

Ako nga pala si Andromeda Akiane M. Crest. Half Filipino. Half British. My raven hair is short infront and long in the back. I have midnight blue eyes that complement my fair skin. I am currently 16 and is graduating highschool this April along with my best friend/cousin, Axeleen Adriane N. Crest. Our fathers are siblings yet my dad is older by one year. She is also 17. Actually, we share the same birthday. August 10. She almost has the same features from me except that her eyes are sky blue and her hairstyle is different from mine. We live in the same house without our parents. You could say we're independent and all but whatever. It was always the two of us. We never really needed others ever since we were young. Not that we care anyway. We were unseperable. We rarely fight. I don't even remember the last time we did.

"Hey Kiane." She called out to me interrupting my thoughts. I blinked and looked at her.

"Yeah?"

"You're spacing out again. Anyways, when are we going to Japan?" She asked. That's right. After graduation, we're headed straight to Tokyo. We got a full scholarship in a university there. Sagot na ng university na yun ang flight expenses namin. May allowance pa. Kahit di naman kelangan kasi may sarili kaming ipon. And trust me, its more than enough.

"A week after graduation." Sagot ko habang nakatingin sa sapatos ko. Napatango siya at tila parang may iniisip.

"Bakit mo natanong??" Tanong ko naman at tumingin sakanya. Tumingin siya sakin.

"Punta tayong mall. Its about time we get ready." Sabi niya.

"Ok." Ikli kong saad at napatigil kami dahil nandito na kami sa pupuntahan namin. We looked at each other and flashed a smile. Haha. Tumuloy na kami sa loob ng karinderya. Oo. Karinderya.

Sinalubong kami ng isang matandang babae.

"O? Mga iha, tapos na kayo sa grad practice niyo?" Bati niya. Nagmano kami sakanya at umupo sa lagi naming inuupuan.

"Opo, Aling Vera. Kakatapos lang po. Nagutom po kami kaya dumiretso kami dito." Magalang kong sagot.

"Ah, ganon ba? Eh diba may canteen naman kayo?"

"Ayaw namin dun. Ang papanget ng lasa. Mas masarap po ang luto niyo!" Puri ni Driane. Tumango ako bilang sang-ayon.

"Hahaha. Mga bata ngayon. O, siya sige. Alam ko naman ang ioorder niyo, tama ba?"

Ngumiti na lang kami at umalis na siya papuntang kusina nila. Narinig kong napabuntong-hininga si Driane.

"Hay. Mamimiss ko to." Habang nakatingin sa paligid niya. Ginaya ko rin siya.

"Ako rin. But I think its for the best." Pareho kaming napatango. Mukhang ito na ang huli naming kain dito...
