Hermoine's tears can't stop streaming at this point
Her head is hidden from the judgmental world. She is protected by Apollo's warm embrace
They stood like that for seconds, just enjoying the cold breeze of the wind that is until Apollo parted from the hug
Pinahid niya ang luhang natitira sa mukha ng dalaga
Hermoine then faced in front of her
"Why? Why are you doing this?" Hermoine closed her eyes tight. Naninikip ang dibdib niya
She faced Apollo and looked at him straight in the eye
"Apollo, I don't mean to intrude but, is this a game for you? I-I'm confuse Apollo. Are you doing this because you know that I like you? T-That must be i-it r-righ-"
"No! Why are you even assum-" Si Apollo naman ang naputol ang pagsasalita
"Then help me understand!" For the first time in her life, Hermoine shouted
"3 years Apollo, I've been pinning for you for 3 years tapos ngayon bigla kanalang nagpakita ng interes! I'ts out of the blue Apollo! What do you want me to think?!" Fresh tears started to stream again
"Out of the blue? Hermoine all of this is not out of the blue" Apollo looked at her dead in the eye
"All you have to know is I fuckin like you Hermoine! I like you for 5 damn years. Pero sa loob ng limang taon na iyon? I can't even talk to you! not because I don't want to but because I was not allowed to
Family tradition number 2, Courting a Lady Van Doren means doing a favor for the head of the family. One shall not pursue if not given the permission to do so" Apollo slowly wiped all of Hermoine's tears with a gentle smile on his face
"Your lolo gave us 4 years to serve him and after that 4 years, he would give us his blessings. Before the school year started ay natapos ko na ang 4 na taon na yon"
Nyx's POV
It all make sense now! Hindi parin ako makapagsalita. I am just looking at him
My face is probably red now, kung dahil iyon sa pag iyak o sa kilig? hindi ko alam
"So, you were the one who was sending the fruit for years?" I asked Apollo
"Yup" that sneaky Laurent
"Were you teaming up with Laurent? when I asked him about the fruits he nodded indicating na siya angn nagpapadala" remember? when I asked Laurent
"Sort off, Someone tipped as na may alam na kayo sa mga nangyayari. Since you discovered about Laurent being your Lolo's driver, we realized na you would eventually confront him so I told him to just answer yes"
Why do I have a feeling that I know this certain someone
"And by someone, you mean Astrid right? Paano niya ba nalaman to lahat" This the reason why Astrid is so creepy kapag napg uusapan namin si Apollo
"Well, she kinda caught up the moment I started to deliver fruits hangang sa nabisto niya ako same with Laurent"
I just nodded
"Wait, if you got lolo's approval before the school year started, bakit nagpapadala ka parin ng mga prutas?" His eyebrows furrowed
"What? Nyx, I stopped giving fruits the moment I got the approval" then who is givin-
"eep" I let out a squeak when Apollo suddenly pulled me. Our face are only inches apart
"Now, let's talk about you assuming things Mi amore" I can smell his minty breath
I almost drooled
"W-well can you really blame me?" I tried to avert my gaze dahil alam ko na pulang pula na ako
Apollo let out a slow deep chuckle, held my chin and turned my gaze back to him
"Mi amore, you look like a tomato right now. My tomato"
He slowly leaned forward. The both of us closed our eyes. Ito na--------
"Holy Shit! Live Porn!!!"

Author's POV
Astrid is currently walking with her cousin Eleanor
"I have this martial arts training Astrid so I can't com- What is wrong with you?" Eleanor's words halted nang makita niyang palinga linga si Astrid
"I suddenly felt tingles Eli, someone's talking about me" Eli just shook her head at her cousin
Katie's POV (Seconds after Nyx and Apol left)
Naglalakad ako ngayong papunta sa klasrom ni Pol, nakalimutan niya kasi yung pagkain na hinanda ni nanay
Pag dating ko sa klasrom niya ay nagulat ako ng sobrang tahimik nila kahit walang prof
Wow, sana ol tahimik kahit walang prof
May nakita akong kakilala na malapit lang sa akin kaya naman kinausap ko siya
"Oi, Bruno! Ano to? pati kayo pina istop nadin ni Quiboloy?" mukhang nahimasmasan naman si Bruno
"Brad! MAs malala pa kay Quiboloy!" niyugyug pa niya ako
Kinuwento ni Bruno ang nangyari
Hindi ko na napigilan at sinapok ko siya
"E tarantado ka pala eh! Sinong nag bigay sa inyo ng karapatan na gawin yun? nasisiraan kana ba ng bait ha?" dinuk dok ko pa ang ulo niya "Buti nga at hindi kayo pinag sasapok ni Apollo, tado ka"
"Aray-aray ano ba, hindi naman ako yung nang insulto kay Hermoine ah, tska ba't ganon ka affected si Apollo?" napatigil ako sa pag dukdok kay Bruno
Dali dali akong umalis, nag isip ako kung saang lugar naroon si Apollo
'Rooftop!'
MAbilis na dinala ako ng mga paa ko sa Rooftop
I silently opened the door, my grip on the knob tightened with what's infront of me
Apollo hugging Hermoine tightly
Nang maramdaman ko ang mga luhang nag babadyang dumaloy ay mabilis kong nilisan ang lugar
Dinala ako ng mga paa ko sa garden
Habang tumuto ang luha ko ay nakita kong paparating si Jessi, kaibigan ko
Nagmamadaling kunuha ko ang cellphone ko at nag play ng Kdrama
"What the? Katie? ba't ka umiiyak" pinakita ko yung cellphone ko
"Nakakaiyak kasi yung Kdarama" tinaasan niya lang ako ng kilay
"Gago kaba? Comedy game show yan tanga!" mas napahikbi ako sa ka tangahan ko
"Yun nga yung nakakaiyak di ako makasabay, walang subtitle!"
