Now am I good enough?

c 7

After the song I immediately head to Bethany at tinuro niya kung nasaan si Louise. I spotted her na papa labas na sa convention. Agad ko syang hinabol kahit na maraming tao ang humarang para batiin at mag congrats I just thank them and gave them a genuine smile.

At last naabutan ko rin siya and I immediately drag her patunggo sa mas peaceful na corner ng convetion center.

“Hi”. I greeted her smiling ear to ear.
I expect her to greet back but as usual she remained silent.

“Hey, I- it’s for you” I said to her handling her the roses.

‘What are you doing?’ She asked narrowing her brows.

“Uhm, courting you” I asked her still smiling.

‘Miss Montero, if you exert all this effort in your studies, you will have a greater and better future’ She said staring at me with only one emotion its disappointment.

‘At least I saw one emotion from those lovely emotionless eyes of yours Louise’ I said in my mind.

‘Yes I know your reputation, as one of the major stock holder daughter I have an access in everything in this school including the grades’ she said in a monotone.

I grin at that “So curious ka pala sa reputation and grades ko?” I asked her cockily teasing her.

“I mean tinignan mo ang grades ko, so you care about me” I grin widely.

She rolled her eyes ‘Oh my God that my friends is so H-O-T.’ ok I sounded pervert sa linyang yun. But seriously that’s hot, she’s hot.

‘Stop wasting your time and effort and please apply it on your studies’ she said again walking out.

“If I take my studies seriously, and keep my grades up and maybe be one of the honors will you allow me to court you?” I shouted at her hoping she would turn around and nod.

She stopped walking for a second and sighed I thought na haharap siya but hindi she then continued to walking out.

I sighed ‘God Louise the suspense is killing me’ then smiled “Sus mag-aral lang pala eh, kakayanin ko yan para sayo.”

‘Hi Riley so anong nangyari?’ tanong ni Bethany.

“It was alright, alam ko na ang gagawin ko para ma pa oo si Louise, Beth” I said to her grinning.

‘Huh? Pano?’ tanong niya.

‘By studying’ I said to her grinning.
Naka nganga sya habang tinitignan ako.

“Come on ganun nalang ba ako ka terrible na student?” I asked her smiling.

‘No, just. Dapat pala mag thank you ako kay Louise, sya ang nag dala ng himala na mataggal na nila tito and tita na hinihintay.’ She said in disbelief.

“Yup. So let’s enjoy this dahil simula bukas you will help me study” I grin at her.

‘Hell yeah, let’s go’ She said smiling like crazy.

We enjoy the rest of the day and hindi ko na nakita si Louise I guess umuwi nay un, di kasi gusto noon ng maraming tao.

Like I said I take my studies from that day seriously, Bethany helping me with all until I cope up with everything. Actually she was so surprise dahil madali daw akong matuto kulang lang daw talaga ako ng inspiration.

I did good in my studies and my scores and grades are beginning to get higher.

Nung first semester namin nabigla ang lahat dahil isa ako san aka-kuha ng highest scores sa every exams namin.

I keep sending cards and gifts to Louise saying that di muna siya ma ster-stress sa akin for a while because I’m focusing on my studies.

Thankfully di niya sina-uli ang mga gifts ko katulad noon and I was Grateful.
