[What's wrong with Mago Asteria?]

Mago Asteria's Point of view

I got up with my hair so messy like a lion. Another usual day. I took a shower, wore my jeans, ate my breakfast, and got to school, nothing special. Second subject na when I saw West Perses with his guy friends finally entering the gate, he's late, as usual. I saw him and he saw me, his poker face automatically smiled at me like it usually do, and I? I rolled my eyes and turned away, like I, as well, usually do.

Everything was usual, walang ganap, everything was like a routine. I thought. Then everything changed at the canteen. I tend to buy orange flavored bottled juice as always, but it's out of stock today. I don't like orange, and that is the reason I kept on buying it. It's not that I hate it, it's just the so-so-type-of-drink. The only juice they're serving today.. is strawberry juice. Great. *poker face* I hesitantly bought my favorite juice.. and gulped it.. and gulped.. and gulped, wait how many juice have I taken? Ito yung dahilan kung bakit ayoko ng strawberry sa school, I, kind of, lose control.. which is I know that it's so weird. I forced myself to got up and managed to walk out that canteen. Then I felt it, that thing in your stomach. Naiihi ako.. I knew it.

Me going to the girl's comfort room makes my day unusual already. The c.r is only two rooms away but that gross smell already touched my nose. Great. Naglakad ako.. no. Naglakad takbo ako papasok sa loob ng c.r while holding my breath and failed. Then nilamon na ko ng amoy na hindi ko malaman kung ano ba talaga yun. Then I died. No not really. Pumasok na ko sa isang cubicle and sat at my dirty throne without it touching my skin, gets nyo? Habang naglalabas ako ng sama ng loob ko while holding my breath every minute, I heard three girls entered the c.r, I know since I heard three voices whining.

Eew! said voice 1.

Bilisan mo na. said voice 2.

Then I heard the door just beside my cubicle opened. I can tell just by hearing them that the other two is busy looking at the mirror while the other is inside the cubicle beside me. Hindi naman sa tsismosa, I mean mapipigilan ko bang hindi marinig? Tapos na ko, I got up and about to flush the toilet when I heard them.

Hey did you see West Perses kanina? said voice 1.

How could I not? My eyes' literally looking for him everywhere. said voice 2.

I rolled my eyes when I realized it's only West Perses they're talking about and, again, about to flush the toilet when I heard my name.

I think Mago Asteria is a lesbian. said voice 1.

Wtf?? It's not that I have issues in genders and stuffs, I mean.. why the hell are they talking about me now? Talk about West! Not me! *insert crouched brows and greeted teeth*

Yeah I thought so too.. said voice 2.

Now it would be weird if I will come out now. And I know, it will be sooo awkward, like really awkward. I sat at the toilet and decided to wait for them to go out. I crossed my arms, really impatient, use one wrong word and I don't know what I'll do.

I mean how can she not be affected? said voice 2.

No I'm affected, you're like referring to me.

I know right. I mean West is just soo damn good. *sigh* I wish I could be Mago. said voice 1.

Yeah the feeling is mutual, I wish I could be Mago too, oh yeah, that's me.

I can't believe she's not affected to that touching game of his. said voice 2.

And I heard her high toned voice like she's a hurt puppy. Touching game?? Am I the only one who doesn't know that?

Yeahh. Our elbows brushed last week and I was like.. oh my g, I just felt West! said voice 1.

What the hell?

And Mago Asteria is his childhood friend which we don't know how much West touched her. said voice 2 with the as-a-matter-of-fact-tone.

That doesn't sound right. Why am I thinking gross things in this gross bathroom? touch who? me? by West? what kind of touch is that?? what are they.. I don't. I can't believe I'm listening to this.

Yeah. West hands touching my skin.. mygad, fine just his fingers and you can feel that tingling thing and you'll be like, wth did I just felt? I can't even imagine holding hands with him, and kissing himm. wait kissing him? It's like, it's not gonna happen. I wish I could accidentally bump into him, it would be.. sooo. *sigh* I can't even forget that elbow thing with him, I feel like I'm e.t like just the touch of our fingers will make my heart burst and it's sooo, just really.. I don't really know the right words to say and I was just. *sigh*I'm in love with him. said voice 1.

What did I just heard? woah.

You're crazy. You shouldn't, he's mine. But yeah you're right. just his eyes meting mine makes my knees weak. That laser like eyes, it was really sexy. said voice 2.

Sexy my foot.

Not just the eyes! His face man, it was really, perfect. That smile, his teeth, his dimple, his brows, his lashes.. You know I think staring at him forever wouldn't make me bored. said voice 1.

And they started laughing. They're crazy. That smile is awful and those white teeth you see isn't really perfect at all when we were 10, and those dimples? it's not very attractive either, his brows? too thick, same goes for his lashes. How can that be perfect?? *insert rolled eyes*

Just the brushing of our elbows makes my heart pound like crazy.. what more if we held hands? Like it's gonna happen. I mean.. who can handle that? Said voice 1 like a kid talking about an extreme ride.

Mago Asteria. said voice 2 like it's the most obvious thing in the world.

Oh yeah. said voice 1.

I heard the door opened from the other side of the cubicle and I heard their foot steps walking out the bathroom. I sighed and stood up, walked out of the bathroom and started walking to the hallway while looking at nothing, I'm busy thinking. Thinking about West Perses, how can all the girls *except me* love him so much? I mean there's nothing much. And how can I not know about that touching game? that's so weird. But it felt like a real game, so unrealistic. Just the brush of their elbows and what? pfft. and what did she say? she felt like e.t? wth? pfft.

I snapped out of my daydream when I was about to trip and someone hold my shoulders and saved me from falling. My eyes widened when I saw West Perses in front of me. He's looking at me while holding my shoulders, and face to face, he started grinning like I'm the most stupid person in the world. My eyes is still wide open, I'm not really sure what just happened, all I could hear is that loud banging of a drum, where is that coming from? My hands automatically touched my chest like it answered my question. My heart is pounding like it would come out of my body. This is no usual day. What's wrong with me?
