"Doubt"


Angel's POV

I have to denied it all. It hurt me a lot to say those words. After that conversation we didn't talk again which I  regretted. It was awkward like I don't exist and I, pretending that his not by my side. After like an hour we finally find our way home and departed without saying goodbye. We just look at each other then poof!

I'm sitting on my bench grabbing my own hair, kicking and shouting , and regret my actions. I also cried. Cause maybe we won't met again. That's what I'm scared the most. I met an extraordinary guy and I waste it.

I keep on smacking my forehead that I think it's becoming reddish. I wipe my tears and nose and tie my hair appropriately. I keep on sobbing remembering the times Darren and I had even though it was short and ordinary. But for me, a ghost who's been looking for a friend for years. It was a special once in a blue moon moment.

It's been 5 days since Darren and I met. And do you know how much I want to see him again? Super duper badly that I would give anything... But what did I do? I acted like a child because of a simple question. Please don't judge me, I have a reason why I have to denied it all even though I'm not sure if it's the real reason.

First, he might find out what I really am
Second, I'm scared that if he finds out he would ask other questions.
Third, he might leave me and also he might be scared of me if he finds out that I'm... Different.
Fourth, I don't want to get hurt.
Fifth, 90% it's all in if he finds out.

You might not understand it for now but in the end you'll perfectly understand it. And I didn't mean to get mad at him. In fact I wasn't mad at all! It was just an act to make him stop asking. It was a stupid move I admit. I didn't mean to roll my eyes at him or hurt his feelings I didn't mean to, to make it awkward.  And I'll let you know that I 200% regret it.

"Darren please come back." I said in a pleading tone. I rest my head on my knee since I was hugging them.

He'll come back.

I can feel it.

*** Darren's POV ***

"Why didn't you call or text us? Do you know we were worried looking for you?! Do you realize if someone had notice you your career might have ended today! Please Darren next time be careful! This is for your own good..."

That's what my manager said. But instead of reacting and saying sorry my brain was preoccupied by angel. Why does she need to denied it? To be honest I didn't buy it. Cause Im freaking sure she's the one I've been looking for.

And the walk home. It was worse than singing for the million people and lost the tone. If she's acting like she can't see me then I will award her for being the best actress. I really want to talk to her but I was scared she might shot me off again. I was embarrass to talk to her again maybe because I thought I push her too far. I don't want to judge people but she can get easily annoyed, or maybe she has a reason why she have to denied it all.

"Darren, pack your bags were going back to the Philippines the day after tomorrow." Mommy said. were in London by the way. A sudden mall tour. The flight was the next day I met angel. And it's been 1 week already. I wonder what she's doing right now. E she angry at me? Will I see her again?

"Opo" I answered.

"Lutang ka yata anak.." Mom said. She approach me and rub my back. I gave her a small smile.

"Ma, what does it takes to get you angry or makes the girls angry?" I ask. She giggled and sooth the sides of my biceps.

"Nag bibinata na ang anak ko.. Bakit may nagalit ba sayong babae anak? Sino?" She ask.

"Well, I don't know if she's angry or annoyed but I think both.. If we boys keep on asking things will you be angry?"

"Minsan nakaka rindi yung paulit pulit ng tanong." Mom said resting her head on my shoulder since I'm taller than her na. Then she sigh.

"Can you give me any advice on 'how not to annoy girls when asking?' "I said in a sarcastic way. Mom laugh and keep on soothing my biceps.

"Wag kasi paulit ulit anak, bakit nililigawan mo ba?"

I immediately look at her in a wide eyes then defensively shook my head. She was laughing so hard. I back away as she hold her tummy because of laughing.

"Ma! Di nakakatawa!" I said but I have this feeling that a little chuckle wants to escape.

"Hay nako anak, iba lang muna ang isipin mo kagaya ng pag impake dahil aalis na tayo para na rin makita yung sinasabi mong babae.." Mom said giggling.

I sigh and followed her inside the room.


---after 3 days---

"Akin na bagahe mo Darren. Pupunta ka pa sa brokland vill." Mommy said. I handed her my bags and luggage to her and went with the others. We part ways cause as mommy said I still need to go to this village.

I hop inside the van and at the second they close it.

***angel's POV***

"They call me crybaby,crybaby but I don't fucking care.. Crybaby crybaby I  laugh through my tears.." I sang softly. Walking to the same park where I met Darren.

I'm not assuming I'll see him again. I kinda lost the eagerness and determination of meeting him.

Okay I admit. I give up.

Well it's been 8 days since we met! And maybe right now his traveling everywhere! It was a slight miracle if I may say. But I'm still praying! That... Somehow.. God will build a bridge to connect Darren and me again.

And what do you expect from a ghost? I have a boring life. I'm thinking whether I'll still tattletale my life to you guys.. But I did warn you though. How many times I told my life is boring. But since I already start talking about my story.. Why not finish it?

So as usual. I'm walking around but I stop at a book store. I easily entered without opening the door cause you know.. I'm.. Different.

It was bigger than I thought. It looks like a library. With 3 tables at the right side. And a shelf with a 6 columns where books are place and there pretty long. Like three humans laying on the floor with their foot touching the head of each other. And there are 5 shelfs here. So imagine how many books they got.

I start exploring the place and it's pretty vintage. It's amazing... And there are only few people here! It's 9 in the morning who the hell would come this early? I started searching for my favorite category.


Vampire and wolves.

I know it's laughable but hey! We all fell Inlove with Jacob and Edward from twilight right? Glob I wish I was a vampire instead of being a ghost. They got awesome powers and they never age! Not to mention they were handsomely hawt. (Hot)

I got to the last shelf and I found the books I've been looking for! It said. "Vampire & wolves" my eyes sparkled and I immediately grab a book. It was titled.

"Vampire secrets."

I don't freaking care if humans can see a floating book. As long as I read this in peace they won't be jinx. 😉

I start flipping some page as my eyes scan them all. I sat down on the floor leaning against the shelf my feet in a mountain form. I place the book between my stomach and lap. And start reading them.

Believe it or not I finish the book in 2 hours. It was only 231 pages and a size of a notebook. I return the book and look for another one. I grab this thick one and it was quite heavy. But when it landed into my arms I saw someone across. It was looking at me.

He's here.
