Von Azrael Sy's POV

Why...

WHY AM I SO UNLUCKY TODAY?!

KATATAPOS LANG NO'NG PAGKAPAHIYA KO KANINA SA LIBRARY TAPOS NGAYON NA NAMAN?!

LORD, WHY?!

"A-Ako nga. Hehehe." She awkwardly waved at me and shifted her gaze as soon as she finished talking.

G-Gano'n ba ako kadugyot na hindi mo man lang ako matapunan ng tingin, Ariadne?!

"I... I'LL BE BACK!" Tinalo ko pa yata si Flash sa bilis ng pagtakbo ko mula sa sala hanggang kwarto ko.

Shit talaga!

WHY AM I SO STUPID?!

Dahan-dahan akong naglakad papuntang salamin sa kwarto ko't gusto kong mahimatay pagkakita ko sa itsura ko.

There are chocolate bits everywhere—  sa gilid ng lips ko, sa cheeks, pati sa noo.

Wait, paano nagkaroon sa forehead ko?

Damn! Basta ang issue dito is...  ang dugyot ko! To top it all of, wala pa akong damit pang-itaas!

I immediately ran towards the bathroom of my room at naghilamos. I even used my facial cleaner para sure win.

After that, I looked at the mirror and shit bricks! I'm so freaking handsome. No wonder girls drool all over me.

'Handsome as hell but humiliating as fu-'

SHUT UP!

YOU'LL TRAUMATIZE ME!

Ughhhh. This is the worst.

I then pulled a shirt from my closet and dressed myself. Okay, now I'm complete.

Inhale.

Exhale.

I calmed myself down and went downstairs, in which I found the two of them happily chatting.

Ugh.

Mas lalong pumanget sa paningin ko 'yong unggoy.

'Green-eyed monster.'

Shut up, stupid brain. I'm not!

"Oh, nand'yan na pala 'yong matakaw kong kaibigan." He said while grinning devilishly.

Anak ng—!

I just calmed myself down and smiled. Mas lalong nakakahiya if I lost my temper and be all flustered about it.

Wooh! Kaya ko 'to! I'm a warrior!

"Now, now... Let's forget all about it, shall we?" I tried my best to smile, though I'm not sure if it turned out right or I looked like a dork having hemorrhoids.

"But it was so lit! You were—" I shot him a deadly glare and he shut himself up pero his face was so messed up, dahil nagpipigil ng tawa 'yong unggoy.

HUMANDA KA SA'KIN MAMAYA!

"Um..."

My eyes shifted their gaze upon the cutest girl I have ever laid my eyes on, and I tried my best to smile back.

I was too carried away with her cuteness. She's so cute wearing that blouse—  another one with long sleeves, as usual. Well, tama lang naman dahil gabi na and this is Baguio. It's freezing outside!

"I-I'm sorry! I accidentally put this in my bag earlier!" Napatingin ako sa inabot niya sa'kin and saw one of my notebooks. Oh. So that was why I felt like there was something missing.
