Steal His Heart

12 // U-turn

CHAPTER 12:

Dillon Farell'sPOV

At the Garden near the Retreat House...

The mass had already finished and we had just also finished eating breakfast. Today, was our last day here in San Del Monte Bulacan. And the whole class was roaming around inside the garden right now. Pagkatapos nito, uuwi na kami. Well, welcome back to reality.

"Babe! Wait for me!!" Oh shit. Ayan na naman si Yanna. And what did she just called me? Babe?!

She's still running after me while I'm ignoring her. I really don't care if she'll be irritated or whatever. Bahala siya.

I just keep walking inside this huge garden. I can't help but to admire the place. The place was beyond beautiful. There were different kinds of trees and plants. I can also hear the chirping of the birds. Likewise, there were flowers and butterflies around the said garden. Whoa. This is life.

"Babeeee!!" Yanna called me in her most squishy voice. Ick! Sometimes I wonder why did I even loved her.

Our stay here made me realize so many things. I just realized that there is more to life than love. I'm so blinded by my love for Yanna at that time, to the point na nagawa kong talikuran yung mga kaibigan ko na laging nandyan para sakin. I've been controlled by my own emotion so I tended to forgot everything. Mali ako. Now, I learned a lot from that experience. I will not be a fool for her, again.

It seems like she got tired of following me around already. Hay, salamat naman. But, she keep shouting and nagging like my girlfriend whom I neglected right now. Tss. So irritating.

Just ignore her, Dillon. You don't want her to ruin your last day here.

So, I keep walking until I saw Zev staring at a sunflower. She's wearing a simple yellow dress. And her hair is tied in a messy bun. She really like to tie her hair like that. Even before. Mas nagmumukha tuloy siyang bata.

I took my DSLR and decided to take a picture of her. Because? Just because. Okay. The scene was candid, so it'll be nice to capture it. Yun lang yun.

After taking the photo. Without her knowing it. I walk towards her.

"Good morning." I greeted her and smiled. She seems surprise by my presence.

"Uh, good morning din." After she said that ay bumalik ulit ang tingin niya sa sunflower. Wearing that amazed look on her face.

"Had a good sleep?" I asked as I looked at the sunflower. May biglang dumapong butterfly doon.

"Uhm, yeah I think. You?" Balik na tanong niya sakin while looking at the butterfly also.

"Nah. Ikaw kase eh." I joked and then look at her reaction. She looks at me, blushing. Hahaha! Cute.

"Ba't ako?!" she said half-shouting pagkatapos akong hampasin sa braso.

"Di ako pinatulog ng letter mo." I said half-serious and half-joking. Yeah. It's true. I just can't keep myself from over thinking after I've read her letter.
