Dream Guy

53rd

Vallerie's POV:

I hummed along to "Rock" by Seventeen (duh) while looking at the view before me.

Nasa deck ako ngayon ng building. I could see countless people, walking, running, laughing.

They seem so happy.

Everybody would think what my position is scary.

Nakaupo kasi ako sa pinaka-edge ng building.

If I fall, I don't care.

Ako lang mag-isa ang tao dito sa deck.

I looked up, at the now dark sky.

I decided to stand sa kinauupuan ko, with arms spread wide.

I know, a crazy idea.

I feel free. Free from crying.

Instantly, I felt a pair of arms pull me from where I'm standing, pulling me towards safer ground.

YZ.

"Are you crazy?! Magpapakamatay ka talaga?! Seryoso?!" He said like as if he cares.

He doesn't, anyway.

"You're crazy!" Sabi niya sakin. "And you're over thinking. Who said anything about me committing suicide?" I asked. He went silent. I rolled my eyes at him.

"Tch. Panira ka lang eh. I was already feeling free from all the pain, and yet here you are, ruining it. Like you always do" sabi ko. I removed my earphones that are plugged in my ears and left.

***The Next Day***

Today's the day where the debates are scheduled. I have no idea kung sino opponents ng AC. I'm just hoping hindi JU, because it'd suck big time.

I was about to go inside the bathroom when I felt Moon snuggle sa paa ko. He's being extra cuddly and clingy today.

And yes that doesn't happen a lot. Usually he just stares at me while I prepare for school.

I sighed, and smiled. Okay, I'll bring you sa school.

***Later***

I took high cut black Converse shoes. I checked myself at the mirror. Nakasuot ako ng isang red and black na checkered long sleeved polo pero nakabukas lang siya. Pangloob ko naman ay puti na spaghetti sando or whatever tf you call these.

You might be wondering why am I always wearing red since kahapon pa. Well, red is the color of our school, eh required na magsuot ng color of our school.

I was tempted to tie my hair in a bun kaso payo nung nag-keratin sakin wag ko daw muna itali until naka 3-4 weeks na, eh this is only the second week after ko magpa-keratin.

I put Moon inside his bag saka kinuha ang sarili kong bag. I locked the door saka umalis na, patungo sa school na ayaw na ayaw kong puntahan.

***Later***

"Ready ka na ba sa debate mamaya?" Tanong sakin ni Charles. Seriously, this guy just randomly pops out every now and then and sometimes it's annoying. Napatingin siya kay Moon na nakalagay sa bag na hawak-hawak ko.

"Omg it's so cute!" Sabi niya totally ignoring the fact na di ko pa nasasagot yung tanong niya.

He squatted down and stroked Moon's back. "Lalaki?" He asked. I nodded.

"Anong name niya?" He asked again. "Moon" sagot ko. Then he touched Moon's collar and nakita yung moon. "Seriously?" Sabi niya, I shrugged.

"It was Clint's idea to buy it" sabi ko. He looked up, "YZ's twin brother?" He asked. I nodded.

"Geez, someone's strangely attracted to Javezians. Sa ACians ka nalang mag-boyfriend!" Sabi niya. I raised an eyebrow, "Wala namang jowable dito" I said.

Lumapit siya sakin and stared into my eyes. "Ako"

What the fuck?
