Wasted Chances

"The Hints"

Donny's POV

CE day is fast approaching and we all have been busy but I see to it that I am with Shar on every tasks. And luck perhaps is on my side kasi kami ang team mate sa quiz bee. In my mind Im saying na manalo or matalo ok na ako, kasi im with her. Halos everyday magkasama kami, magkatabi, magkausap, magkasabay kumain at hanggang uwian magkasabay kami kahit out of way ang bahay nila, umiikot na lang ako. I just feel great. Sana lagi na lang may event and CE department.

"You like her, don't you?", sabi ni Carl na ikinagulat ko.

"Don't try to deny it Donny, there is no use, you are too obvious." Jai said.

"Anong nagustuhan mo don eh ang gaslaw kumilos?", tanong naman ni Nash

Andito kami sa classroom waiting for our teacher and Shar as well dahil may klase pa sya ngayon kasama sila CJ.
"Shit, am I that transparent? Eh bakit hindi naman ata napapansin ni Shar? Ganun ba sya kamanhid?" patuloy na pagtatalo ng isip ko.

"C'mon Donny just say it. Okay, kidding aside, Shar is a great catch. Low maintenance I might add and ang cool nya lang siguro maging girlfriend, walang ka arte arte sa katawan." mahabang litanya ni Nash

"Seriously guys, how did you know? Did I do something for her na sobrang expressive? Do you think she knows? Ang tanga ko naman pala, di ako makapagtago." sabi ko na nanlulumo

"Wala ka naman ginagawang special for her, masyado ka lang obvious kasi whenever you are with her, ang saya mo. You can't stand being with Kissess and the rest of the group for even an hour pero if nasa grupo si Shar ang hyper mo. And you rather be in the library kesa sumama samin kasi magkikita kayo don ni Shar. And when you learned about Saspa? Yong hitsura mo di maipinta at bigla ka nanahimik." sabi naman ni Jai.

"I don't think she knows or hinted a bit kasi she did not consider herself as admirable as she really is. She likes you too though." biglang sabi ni Carl na nagpakunot ng noo ko.

"Isn't she obvious as well? Manhid ka ba? Oh well parehas pala kayo. Damn Pangilinan, wala sya ibang bukambibig kundi si kuya, minsan nga nakakarindi na. But you are not that lucky, sorry not sorry." patuloy ni Carl

"How can you say that?" aniko.

"Seriously dude? Ang talino pa naman ng tingin ko sayo biglang ay hindi pala." sabi ni Jai

"You know how childish Shar is. She have so much insecurities as well and you will just put into risk kung anuman meron kayo ngayon if you pursue her kasi di sya maniniwala. The way I see it, she believe that she is not worthy and beautiful enough to have someone liked her. She's too focus on her goal as well that romance is her least priorities." paliwanag ni Jai.

"And may I just add, she value friendship over other relationship. I heard her once said na kapag tropa, walang talo talo." Nash said.

As much as I wanted to celebrate because of what Carl had said, I cant because of the other things they explained. Thay have a point, though I do not agree that Shar is not worthy and beautiful enough, because for me she is far better than any other girls.
Should I risk the relationship we have now with a possibility of loosing her or just be contented and wait for God's timing? Just the thought of loosing her makes me anxious, I can't stand that, so for now, I'd rather have her as a friend than not to have her at all. I will give her time but I will make myself notice as well. I will make her fall hard until she herself acknowledge her feelings towards me. Those were my thoughts before going to bed.

Shar's POV

CE Day! Yes, I am anticipating this event every year ever since kuya Ramir graduated. This is the only chance I have too see him and talk to him casually. I know I don't have a chance on him and I have no intentions of going farther. I bet im not the only girl who likes him because, duh!!, he's not just physically gifted as how Carl described him. He is also intelligent yet so humble and approachable. He's just an inspiration and someone to look up to.
