CHAPTER THREE

"He saved me! He literally saved me! He lowkey saved me! I know he did!" I explained everything happened a while ago to my sister, about Leo, that pretentious guy and the white-haired guy who saved me.

"Bakit niya kasi sinabi na 'disgusting' even if it looks you're in danger? He can just punch that Leo guy or call the police, right?" my sister keeps on arguing on what the white-haired guy just did if it's saving or judging.

"You have a point. Pero paano kung ginawa niya yun para hindi makaistorbo? Hindi naman kasi lahat dapat violent ang ginagamit para makapag-save ng tao." I said as I defend the guy from my sister's judgement.

"Maybe bu--"

"No more buts, Kei." I insulted her for not calling her sister.

"Fine. Whatever you say." she frowned. "But that doesn't mean I'll let you slip with your 'Kei' thing!"

I laughed hysterically because I thought she will not notice it. "Okay Sis, jeongmal mianhae, sis."

But really, I want to meet that guy who saved me.

Surfing on Facebook might not be the best idea to do since I didn't attended on my Moving Up yesterday because I did Moving Home. Okay, bad joke. I guess that is the worst joke ever. Anyways, I don't want to surf on Facebook because my timeline is definitely full of Graduation and Moving Up pictures right now.

I don't want to go out too, what if Leo is outside, waiting for me? No one will protect me since Sis already left because she have Saturday class today.

Oh yeah, I just realized, the academic year typically starts in August and ends in June here unlike in my old school which is June to April. I have to wait for five months to start my Senior Year here. Does that mean I have to lock myself up for five months to avoid dangerous incidents just like what happened last night?

Ooh I'll rot in here.

---

I spent my whole day playing with my cats!

Now I have an urge feeling to go out.

Hmp! Whatever, I bet Leo will leave me alone after what happened yesterday. Why am I still scared of him? I don't want to trust innocent and handsome faces again. Their life sucks for choosing fuccboi over gentleman as their manner. Leo sucks.

Sis told me before she left that there's a park near my place, she said that there's hardly any buildings so I can probably see the moon tonight. I searched for it on Maps and it says the park is in the 2nd Avenue, which is just the other side of the street. Wow, that's pretty close, huh. "There's 70% chance that I wouldn't bump into Leo." That's good though.

But what if that 30% left will be the one to destroy my whole life?

IF. Just IF.

What could possibly go wrong?

So I changed my clothes into another long black hoodie with a mark "Mastermind" in it. You're probably confused but I do have a lot hoodies because it's more comfortable for me. But this time I wore my black mask just in case I met Leo, he wouldn't recognize me. JUST IN CASE. Better to be safe than never. I hope it'll work though.

This time I'm going to memorize the way, of course.

Nothing suspicious happened as I walk through the park though.

They got pretty impressive park! There are fountains, mini bridge, a small falls, trees, bermuda grasses that can be sat on and some benches. Buildings are pretty far from the park and the sky can be seen.

At this time, which is 9PM, there are only few people here in this park, mostly couples and people who just walked by. This is one of the evidences of people not appreciating the beauty of nature. Sad to say but it's true.

I looked up in the sky, saw the moon at it's Waning Crescent phase, the left of it is shining and the other is not. The stars shining above me. The phase of the moon describes my situation right now, half of me is happy on what I have right now. But something is missing but I don't know what it is. I want to find it but there's no single clue of that missing piece.

Sigh. What am I thinking? And Waning Crescent is not even half.

I got tired standing and thinking plus the pain I got when I walked through here. Walking is a pain in the ass, you know. Lazy people like me can relate.

There is a tree near where I am standing that I can rest for a while and do 'moongazing'. I walked towards the tree that seems comfortable to rest at. I set myself and sit down, only to sit on something not quite right. Something warm and hard. It was a bit dark so I can't clearly see what I am sitting on.

It moved..?!

I jumped up to my feet in an instant. I whirl around to look at whatever it is I sat down on.

"Y-You're..!" is the only thing I uttered. His face is so familiar that I can't even forget. Even I only got to see his eyes yesterday, I know this is him.

There is a sudden tension in the air.

The sleepy guy slowly cracks his eyes open and blink several times, before finally directing his gaze at me.

"Aish. You interrupted my sleep." he replied roughly.

I gulped, hesitant to say what's circling on my mind right now but I want to know.

"Aren't you the guy who saved me yesterday?"
