Neglected Hearts

Chapter Three

Angelica's P.O.V.

I arrived at school feeling so nervous. I don't know why I should feel nervous; I just want to put this little gift of mine in his bag. But I don't know how.

"Why so nervous? Planning to confess now?" Shaina asked me as she sat beside me. I looked at her and shook my head.

"I was just thinking about something" I said and take a box from my bag. It's my gift.

There's no such occasion or stuff, I just want to give this to him. I just want to let him know that I exist, in case he forgets about it because of our 'stranger like' set-up.

"What is that? Oh my gosh! Is that for me? Thank you beshy!" She said. Gosh, why so exaggerated Shaina?

"This is not for you girl. Stop that" I said that made her frown.

"How mean of you. You can give him a gift, but to your friends you can't?" she said.

"Stop that Shaina, don't talk as if I never gave any gift to any of you" I said, she just showed me a peace sign.

"So what do you want to do with that?" she said pointing the box.

"And what the heck is that?"

"This?" I said and open the box the box to show her what's inside.

"You really did spend a lot just for a pen? Seriously?" She said looking at me unbelievably.

She took the pen out of the box and examined it.

The truth is, it doesn't really cost that much but I'm sure that it has good quality.

"It's not that expensive Shaina"

"But it looks like one"

"Well, I have a nice taste" I said trying to sound boastful.

"Nice taste? Then why did you choose him?" she said that made me eyed her seriously.

What's wrong with liking him? It's not like he's a bad ass guy or a gangster that getting into troubles became a hobby.

He's not that bad.

In fact he's nice and gentleman in his own little ways. You can only see it if you will just try to understand him. He's just quite snob but when you will just pay attention in the way he behaves there's something in it, and that made me fal-like him.

"Fine, fine, I didn't say a thing. So what's the plan? Gonna give this to him directly or the old style?" she said.

"I'm brave, Shaina –"

"Then you'll give it directly?" she said cutting my words that made my eyes went big.

"Of course not! I'm not yet finish talking. As I was saying I'm brave but I will choose the old fashion style" I said and rolled my eyes.

"We didn't have lockers girl" she said.

"He has a bag Shaina. It's already big enough for this box-"

"What box?"

I look at that annoying friend of mine who just interrupted me from talking.
