Final Shot

First Shot

"Kershia!" Von shouted while he was running in the field, "Kersia Gayle Marquez!"

Kershia stopped walking and slowly turned her back to check who was calling her name and to her surprise, she saw her best friend's best friend- Von Pessumal. When he was just few inches away from her, Kershia's brows furrowed, she was asking him why.

"I need to talk to you." He was panting but he still managed to say it in his most serious tone, "It's about Janine."

"I knew it!" She reacted happily, "I knew this day would come."

"Huh? What do you mean?" He asked, confused.

"I always knew that you like my best friend, it's really obvious, I was just waiting for you to ask for my help. So shall we?" then she started walking back to JSEC.

Von was overwhelmed with her statement. He was standing still in the place where she left him. Meanwhile, Kershia stopped walking when she realized that Von wasn't following her steps.

"HOY PESSUMAL BAKIT NAKATANGA KA PA JAN?!" Kershia shouted.

He only came back to his senses when he heard Kershia shouted. He ran as fast as he could to catch up with her pace.

"Where do you think you're going?" Von asked.

"To JSEC, duh!"

"We're not going back to JSEC!" Von replied quickly, "I saw Janine and her "new" friend there." He said, adding an air quote to the word new.

"Uy, the Jack of all Trades is jealous!" She commented, "Where are we going then?"

"Suggest a place where there are few people lang. I'll treat you." Von said.

Kershia's eyes brightened when she heard the word "treat". She came from a well off family and has more than enough to pay for her own meal and other stuff but she really loves it when her friends treat her a meal or drink. It's not that she's using them, it's just that she has so much love for freebies. But she treats her friends, too, whenever they ask her to.

"Let's go to Starr's nalang." then she started walking, "I'm so excited to hear your kwento and of course, the food that you'll treat me."

Von gently grabbed her wrist before she could completely take steps away from him, "I said place where there are only few people, Starr's is a bit crowdy and the place is so small, people sitting next to us might hear my kwento."

"OMG! Why are you so arte? Kiefer is so not like that naman. You make gaya your best friend nga!" Kershia answered.

"Will you please stop talking like that?" Von said, he sounded irritated, "I mean, you being conyo. It annoys the shit out of me."

Kershia chuckled before answering Von's statement, "You should have seen your face, Von! That was the most epic reaction that I have ever seen in my entire life! But anyway, you know how much I hate Conyo people, I just tried talking like I'm one of them and I swear to god I won't do it again. So annoying!"

"Yes, so can you now suggest a place?"

She pouted her lips as she thinks of a place, "What about Tea.ology? Starbucks? Or Serenitea? Konti lang tao dun."

"Starbucks? Seriously Kersh?! It's one of the busiest place in Katipunan!" Von answered quickly, "And why do you keep on suggesting teashops and coffeeshop? For crying out loud Kershia, I want a decent meal after that dreadful training."

Kersh stuck her tongue out, "Starbucks' Roasted Chicken Pesto is already a decent food for me. Please Vonny?"

He heaved out a deep and long sigh, "What about we buy your chicken pesto in Starbucks and you have it eaten in Tea.ology?"
