Dreamcatcher

Chapter 4

What happened next?

 Of course we went out, we talked about anything under the sun, most of the time we talked about Harvey, the way he gets pissed of—how he looked like when I told him I will go out with his team mate. The atmosphere calmed for a while and then he said, “You like him, don’t you?”

Surprised, wide-eyed...I can’t find the right words, “I-I...of course I do,” and the right words flowed effortlessly out of my lips, “Harvey—he was the stupidest jerk I’ve ever known, he wrestles my stuffed toys, he breaks my mirrors, and he sleeps on my bed while letting me sleep on the floor.”

“But, if there’s only one person I could give my life to, it would be him. He’s always around when I need him. He’s the brother I longed to have—the kuya that protects me and the best friend that I can always run to. At the darkest moment of my life the appeared and gave me handkerchief and said ‘can we play? After you cry...’” he laughed, and I continued “Even if he plays a lot with girls, and I’m an accomplice to that, I still believe that one day in his stupid life he will love a girl—he will love her with all his heart, give up everything for her and he will never play with her feelings...know what I mean huh? You’re a guy...you sure know what I mean” I took a sip at my Iced tea, “Are you hoping to be that lady?” Choking, I said “No! Of course not! He’s not my type and I’m not his kind of girl too...we’re better off as friends” He smiled and said, “That’s good then, ‘because Hannah, I really like you...”

I smiled in return. Pondering on what I said a while ago, I don’t like Harvey, I’m not into him—that’s not a part of the rules of friendship. Besides, I’m not his type—he likes sophisticated, girly—girlfriend material gals—I’m not like them. Waaahh...why am I thinking a lot about that stupid monkey, I am here having a date with a cute guy, think about it Hannah...You are facing a cute basketball player and he just said that he likes you—he likes you...Oh my God...this is it talk—tell something, say thank you.

“Thank you,” I said awkwardly. Smiling he touched my cheek, I just wonder why I don’t feel anything—I don’t feel the “Spark”, and I clearly know that my heart only beats fast because of the awkward feeling I have inside—God, why don’t you feel anything Hannah, He’s cute, he’s nice and he’s smiling at you right now...why do you keep looking at the clock—why do you keep hoping that time would ran fast...why? Is he not your type—he’s the one you like!!

So he did court me, we went out; he fetches me after class and we go for lunch—all three of us. Of course Harvey’s there, he was my best friend. But he had not been my boyfriend—we just grew close to each other and the infatuation he felt for me I suppose has subsided, I don’t know, maybe we grew very close that it had been awkward if he still pursued courting me.

They help me on my assignments especially in math and in my drawings at my anatomy class.

“Eisht, I really don’t know why I have to work hard for this subjects—Why am I going to solve math problems in front of my patients in the future?” Harvey slouched on his seat and looked at Miggy as if saying cue in man, I’m tired of her.

Grinning, he patiently took my pen wrote the very same equation Harvey and I had been arguing for an hour, “Let’s start all over again okay”

“My god Miggy, I so love you” I said, he smiled back.

Harvey’s phone rang and sighing he stood said, “Excuse me for a while, I don’t like the atmosphere here” he said casting me a teasing look.

I followed him with a disgusted look, he smiled before answering, and the moment he said ‘hello’, his expression changed. He did not speak much during the entire conversation, all we can hear were, ‘yes’, ‘I understand’, ‘I’m alright’ those kind of words. The conversation with that person whoever he/she is, changed the day’s mood and changed everything from then on.

“Hey guys, I have to go...I have an important meeting to attend...” he said.

“Okay, ahm.. Harvey wait...could you buy me ice cream when you come back...please...” I said showing a cute little grin (it doesn’t work on him most of the time.)

“Okay, I will...bye...” he said tapping my head, he then leaned over and kissed my forehead.

Surprised, I stared at him with eyes wide open. That’s weird... “Hey! Why the hell did you kiss—” but he closed the door right before I finish my sentence.
