I watched her as she introduced herself in front of the class.

I watched her as she slowly made her way towards her seat.

I watched her as she shyly talked to her seatmate.

I watched her as she takes down notes during discussions.

I watched her as she answered the questions.

I watched her as she walked out of the classroom for her next subject.

I watched her as she ate her lunch.

I watch her as she gets comfortable with others' company.

I watched her as she bid goodbye to her friends.

I watched her adjust as days, weeks and months passed.

I watched her have abundant friends.

I watched her laugh with her newly found friends.

I watched her as she smiled at me each day.

I watched her as she gets more beautiful day by day.

I watched her as she blushed when she received flowers.

That's when I realized that I'm in love with her.

One day, as I was walking in the hallway, I heard her call my name.

She's running towards me with the sweetest smile she could ever give.

I smiled back and waited for her to come near me.

Then, she started talking to me.

"Sir Dylan! Thank you po sa mahaba mong pasensya kapag Math subject ah. Thank you po sa pagturo sa amin, Sir! See you next school year po–"

She  stopped talking when someone called her.

She turned to him and I saw how her eyes sparkled with pure bliss.

She waved goodbye to me and started running towards the man she loves.

Right, I'm just no one.

I watched her as she hugged him.

I watched her as she held his hands.

I watched her as she smiled at him.

And I felt pain struck my chest.

I am a teacher, and my student is the girl love.
