LOUIEGIE'S POINT OF VIEW

When we arrived at Schneider's mansion, Winter immediately went up to her room. I don't know what's with her. I felt shy earlier when she accidentaly kissed my cheekㅡ Winter's word. Naawa ako sa driver nila dahil muntik na siyang ma-fired dahil lang sa katarayan ni Winter. Tsk! Spoiled Brat!

When Mr. Schneider said earlier that we will stay here at Schneider's mansion for a week, I'm also against it, but I can't do something because I'm sure that mom and dadㅡ or only mom, decided about it.

"Louiegie?" Mr. Schneider called my attention.

I faced him and said, "Yes po?"

"I want to say sorry for Winter's behaviour. She's been like that since she lost her momㅡ my wife. Anyway, let's eat our dinner." I could feel the sadness in his voice when he said about Winter, losing her mom.

"Mr. Schneider, can I ask something?" I said to him when he's about to turn his back to me.

"Just call me tito or Tito Jerome. It's up to you." He smiled. "Anyway, what do you wanna ask?" he answered my question.

"What happened to Winter's mom? To your wife?"

"My wife W-Wirleza d-died due to a g-gunshot." Tito sighed. "Winter was with her mom when that tragedy happened. Worst, it happened the day before Winter's birthday," tito said. I could see sadness and anger in his eyes.

"Sorry for your lost, tito. But why Winter hates hospitals and wheelchairs? Narinig ko lang po kasing sinabi niya kanina sa London," I asked.

"Winter called me when her mom was shot. When I arrived at their location, I immediately brought my wife to the nearest hospital. But that hospital didn't saved my wife. Since then, she hates hospital. I just don't know why she hates wheelchairs," tito explained. Now, I understand kung bakit ganoon ang ugali niya. It's because of the death of her mom.

After what Tito Jerome said ay nag-aya na siyang kumain ng hapunan. While we're eating our dinner, silence occured among us. Hindi rin nakisabay sa aming kumain si Winter. I don't know if she's asleep already or talagang iniiwasan lang niya ako.

After we ate our dinner ay umakyat na kami sa mga kwartong nakalaan para sa amin. Winter's room is just next to mine. I took a bath before going to bed. I fell asleep early dahil bukas ay papasok na ulit ako matapos ang ilang araw na pag-absent.

WINTER'S POINT OF VIEW

I think it was a miracle that I woke up early today. I felt that my left foot doesn't hurt anymore. I smiled. But my smile faded when I saw Louiegie entered my room while carrying tray with a bread, milk and steak.

"My future wife! Here's your breakfasttttttt~" I am irritated when I heard him singing like he's out of his mind, but I admit that his voice is smooth and relaxing. Argh! What am I thinking?!

I stood up and faced him. "What are you doing here at my room? Did I gave you my permission to enter? Get out!"

He touched the bridge of his eyeglasses. Yes! He's wearing an eyeglasses right now. Aaminin kong naninibago din ako sa itsura niya ngayon dahil sa suot niyang salamin. When I saw him in London, he's not wearing an eyeglasses, but I think he's wearing contact lense that time. Well, nakasuot pala siya ng salamin nang matapunan niya ako ng juice sa eskwelahan dati.

"You didn't gave your permission, but tito did," he said habang inilalapag sa bedside table ko ang tray na may pagkain. I followed him moved his hands. "Anyway, eat your breakfast now. We're going to Schneider Academy together. I don't want to be late," he said after niyang mailapag ang tray.
