- Gulf -

The class has finished and we already went to soccer practice.

Is it just me or P'Earth is on a different level now? I mean, he gets annoyed on every single thing. I saw my teammates can't keep it in anymore. He's been like that for hours now, picking on someone even though there's nothing wrong.

“P'Earth, why don't we just call it a day?” Top calmly approached P'Earth. Only Top can confront P'Earth, I don't know, or we don't know how he does that, but it's effective.

I suddenly heard noises around us.

“Look. Look.”

“It's him.”

“He's here.”

When I noticed that they were looking at someone, I also trace it with my eyes and I saw a gentle-looking man. Who is he?

“Aish! You can go now, let's continue tomorrow.” said P'Earth and made his way to the direction of that man who just came in. I wonder who is he.

Or is he his boyfriend? But Pete said they already broke up. Or perhaps he's here to make up with P'Earth? Oohhh.

“Hey, hey! Is that him?” said Top in a very exciting but low tone as if he's afraid someone might hear him.

“I think so.” said Pete who's still fixated on the direction of P'Earth, but they already left so there's nothing more to see.

“What do you think? Are they getting back together?” asked Top. Since when did he get so curious about someone else's love life, huh? You, idiot. You have tons of girls and now you're interested in some boys love?

“I hope so. Because if that happened, we will no longer have to deal with a hot-tempered P'Earth.” That's right! I am also tired with that kind of atmosphere. I can't take some heavy vibes, though.

“By the way, it's only past 8 o'clock, wanna go clubbing? I know a place where hot girls go. This time, it's sure.” Top said while raising both his eyebrows and then winks, as if that made him look cool, huh.

“Oooooohhh. That's cool!” Pete said in an exciting manner but suddenly descended in a gloomy mood, “but I am tired as fuck. Can you promise to take me home if I drop dead?”

“Huh? Who says we're going clubbing? We're going home!!!” and Top pushed Pete while running. These idiots, really.

“Hey, Gulf! You coming?” Top shouted since I was left behind.

Why do I feel like waiting for P'Mew? I think he's a P' so I will call him P'Mew.

“I left something behind but you can go ahead.”

Did I just make an excuse? What am I thinking?

I saw their backs getting smaller and smaller until I lost them, but still, there's no P'Mew.

I thought he would catch me after class? We even had our practice, still no P'Mew. Did he just bail on me? What a son of a bitch!

I looked at my watch. It's now 10:30. I've been waiting for him for 2 hours already. I don't understand myself. I should have left already but I am still waiting, and still willing to wait.

Maybe he's busy. He should've told me he's not coming. But come to think of it, we don't have each other's number, how am I suppose to contact him?

It's already late, really late. I don't think he's still coming. Maybe I should go now. Tomorrow, I will definitely get his number so this would not happen again. Aish.

But what if he came? What if he's still finishing his work so he can manage to come and get me?

“I don't want to be an irresponsible boyfriend.”

I don't know why but he made me hold onto what he said earlier. Maybe I'll just wait for him for another 15 minutes, if he doesn't show, I will just go home then.

I didn't realized that I fell asleep and when I woke up, it's already 11:30. Damn, I said only 15 minutes but now it's an hour already.

He's still not here.

I waited for nothing.

Maybe I should have just followed my first instinct: to just go home 'cause he's not coming 'cause he's a jerk.

I suddenly felt something pouring on me; rain drops, and it's getting heavier. I didn't bother to run and look for a shelter, I stay seated on a bench here in the field. I am already wet, anyway.

I felt my tears running down my face as it get mixed up with the rain. Why did I let myself get into this situation? Why do I keep wanting to see him now? Am I too dumb if I still want to see him right now?

“I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.” and then I felt a warm hug around me. I know it's raining and it's cold but this hug gives me warmth. For some reasons, it makes me cry harder than I was crying before.

“I'm so sorry I'm late. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.”

All that I can hear is P'Mew saying sorry. I forgot how long I have been waiting for him, what I know for sure is that I didn't wait in vain ..

because he came. He actually came.

“Achoo!” right after I sneezed, I heard him chuckles.

“What's so funny?” I glared at him. We're now in my dorm, and yes, he's with me. I insisted since my dorm is nearer than his. I don't want him to catch a cold but look who's sneezing now.

I just finished showering and is wiping my hair dry now. I looked at him wrapped in a towel while sitting on the floor while his back resting against the bed. I told him he can sit on the bed but he refused to because he's afraid he might wet it. I didn't force him further since I think I can't win against him.

“P'Mew, you can shower now.” I called him but he seems not to hear me.

“P'Mew.” I tried calling him again but still, he doesn't respond. I think he's staring at me, not in the eyes but..

“Hey, what are you looking at?” I covered my neck with the towel I was holding because he seems to be eyeing on my neck. He then scratches his head and smiled at me.

“I didn't know you've got a seductive neck, Gulf. It makes me want to kiss it.” said Mew as he walks towards me.

Wait, what is he doing?

He walked past me and went inside the shower room. But before he could close the door, he left a word, more like a warning to me;

“Don't display your neck before me, I might want to kiss it.”
