III.

I tried to kill some time so I went to the roof top. Gosh, its been so long since I last visited this place. I inhaled the fresh and cold air in here. So satisfying. I have never been at peace the past days. Things keep on appearing and bothering me at most.

Wait--I paused and looked around as I heard something. Who could be here at this very hour? I mumbled. School time is already finished so I'd expected that everyone has gone home.

And there you go, a girl is sobbing and weeping on one side of the corner. I couldnt see her face so dont ask me who's that. 

I wouldnt want to stick my nose with this so I tried to go, but some weird instinct keeps on urging me to stay. Normally I dont involve myself with someone else's business.

Just as I am about to go, the girl clung unto the end of my shirt.

"Ps-Psyche?" I stumbled when I realized it was her.  "What are you doing here? And why are you crying?" I asked. I bend at my knees to meet her eyes.

She kept silent as she wiped her eyes through his index.

"I dont know," she mumbled. "As if everything has piled up and its heavy. The moment i realized...I was already crying." She said.

"Okay, let me share with that. Just cry all you want. I wont ask anything, I promise, just cry it out" I sympathetically said and offered my hanky.

She looked at me at that.

I always believed before that crying makes no sense, but seeing Psyche now, as she couldn't explain anything and just burst into tears, maybe its one of the ways to unload our burdens.

Sometimes we dont really need advice when we are feeling down, we just need someone who could listen to us, be there for us.

"Immersed with my thoughts, Psyche touched my hands...

"Thank you," she said. Her eyes were full of emotions but right now, all I could really see is her vulnerability. Her soul is pure, I know that; yet she's pretty fragile.

I was stunned at the moment. My heart-- something is weird with my heart! Why does it go badump badump? Geez I look like a fool. I dont know if I will laugh at myself with this foolishness. What's this? Something...something is happening in me, I know, but there's definitely something in my stomach, and now Im sweating. Or I might just been hungry? No! Definitely not!

I looked at Psyche again, just a quick glance though. Im trying not to have any eye contact with her because I might realized what's going on. And I'm scared to death at that.

Fool. What are you afraid of? I reprimand myself. 

And there you go, everything suddenly went blank. Everything stopped in that moment slowmowed at that as she pressed her lips against mine. It was a ki-ki-kiss! Ahhh!!! I got rattled, sh-she ki-kissed me? Her eyes were closed so I couldnt see what she's thinking. My thoughts got dishivelled. Yeah she really did that. What the--- my mind is screaming. But I didnt actually do anything. I didnt even refused.

My heart beats even harder. Horses are racing as if Im about to be suffocated. I got butterflies in my stomach. Weird! Stop, oh please stop! Im pleading.

The kiss lasts for about a couple of seconds. Basically it was just a peck, but it seemed longer than it should be. "Wh-wha--what are you doing? I stuttered, unable to compose myself.

She got shy all of a sudden...she avoided my eyes and swoop down as swift as she can.

I was left out clueless and speechless. I took a deep...very deep breath and sigh. What was that? I asked myself.

What did just happened? I wondered.

And now my mind went totally crazy. The scene keeps on replaying in my head. Ugh, how am I supposed to shake this? God please wake me up!

And there you go, God speedily answered, I was buzzed out with a motorcycle.

My heart skipped and got stumbled at that. Woahh...easy. You didn't even let me  prepare myself. I whined.

The scene got stuck in my mind until I got home, until I went to bed actually.

Now, it would be a hellish sleepless night, I guessed.

The fudge with this. I hissed.
