CHRISTOPER'S POV

I am currently sitting here, inside the library reading William Shakespeare's book entitled Romeo and Juliet. Even if I already read it before and aware of it's tragic ending , I still want to refresh the story and feel my role as Romeo.

I actually really don't care about Romeo's Juliet nor even any girls or woman around me. I really need to do this sh*t to have a higher grades because of the specific reason that I don't want to share to anyone.

I wrote down the emotions that was describe by the author for Romeo. I am not good in this. I really don't know what to do specially the whole story is all about "love". A four letter word that I don't even know how to express, I can say that I already felt loved by my parents but it's different from the love that was given by this story. It is really powerful that they really fight for it until their last breath.

7pm, it's already dark. So I decided to go home and not to think of about the play. Nothing to worry about.

As I go inside the elevator and click the 4rth floor botton. Something came in my mind. Out of nowhere I remember about my dream maybe a month ago before I go here in manila. I saw a woman in my dreams I don't know who is she.

It's 4rth floor, but I decided to stay inside this elevator and continue to ride as it stops at the roof top.

In here I can breath really good. The winds that makes my hair dance and the stars that brightens my soul. I do really adore stars at night it's really amazing.

I begin to walk slowly to feel the air when I saw a girl sitting in a plastic chair thinking something while holding a notebook on her left hand and a pen on her right hand.

She stand up.

"Oh my romeo, if you really love me please go here coz I don't know where I am going to start writing our love story. " -She says.

She put down the things in her hands then..

She starts dancing.. She imagines that someone is dancing with her and slowly moving her feet on the right and left side, step forward and as she done stepping backward facing me at this moment.

She open her eyes and..

"Anak ng kabayong bundat!!" -nagulat niyang sabi.

Again I don't have any reaction. It's normal that she is shocked.

"An-an-ano bang ginagawa mo riyan?! Ka-kanina ka pa ba? Na-kita mo-ba ginagawa ko rito? "-mautal-utal ngunit sunod-sunod niyang tanong sakin.

"Yes." - Maikling sagot ko sa lahat ng tanong niya.

Short but specific.

Bigla siyang namula. Yumuko siya bigla at dinampot ang mga gamit niya at kumaripas ng takbo.

I just ignored her. Do I look I care?

DEZIRELL'S POV

"ha-hanu bhang ghinaga-wa ni nhuknhok dohon?!!!"

Ito na lamang ang nasabi ko habang hinabol ko ang paghinga ko. Jusq hindi ko na talaga Keri nakakahiya talaga mga nakita niya kanina.

*inhale....
*exhale.

Nag-antay ako bumukas ang elevator at nung bumukas na eh aba agad-agad na akong pumasok.

Dali-daling binuksan ang pinto ng dorm at isinara.

Ibinagsak ko ang buo kong katawan sa kama at tumingin sa kawalan.

Natauhan na lamang ako ng bigla kong maalala na wala pa pala akong script, I mean kaming lahat. Kahit pagkakasunod-sunod ng mga pangyayari eh wala pa.
