Crush Thy Neighbor (On-going)

Chapter 12

Draven's POV

I'm on my way to school driving my car when I saw Mollary walking in the sidewalk, so I stopped my car beside her and beeped. I chuckled a bit when I saw how she jump a bit because of shockness. Luckily, she stop walking and trying to identify me so I down my window and smile at her that make her blush. How cute.

"Hi. Good morning." I greeted her with a smile.

"Hello. Good morning too." she shyly replied with a smile.

"Why are you walking? You have a car." I asked.

"Nothing. I just want to walk for exercise and I feel lazy to drive today."

"Oh okay. So, don't you want a ride?"

"Uhmm no. Its okay, malapit nalang rin naman. Thank you sa pag-alok."

"Okay. Maybe next time?"

"Sure."

"Segi. Una na ako. Bye!" paalam ko.

"Drive safely. Bye!" she said while waving her hand.

I beeped once before driving again. I don't know what's pushing me to do that lately but maybe it's just that I find her harmless and it's not bad to try to be friend with a girl.

Mollary's POV

Lutang akong nagpatuloy sa paglalakad dahil sa nangyari kanina. Di ko inaasahan na si Draven na mismo ang lalapit sa akin eh dati ako tong habol ng habol sa kanya. Bumaliktad na ata ang ihip ng hangin ah, gumagawa na nang paraan si tadhana para maging kami. Para maging kami? Wait di ko pa yun naiisip eh, gusto ko lang naman maging magkaibigan kami pero kung may chance then why not diba? Crush mo tas maging jowa mo, ang ganda lang.

Hapon at uwian na since wala akong dalang kotse heto ako naglalakad na naman ihahatid sana ako ni Nathalie pero tumanggi nako kasi malapit lang rin naman at gusto kung ma-experience na maglakad sa hapon. Tahimik akong naglalakad habang tumitingin sa paligid at ngumingiti sa mga kaklaseng pumapansin sakin nang biglang may bumusina sa tapat ko.

"Hi Mollary. Do you want a ride?" tanong sakin ni Draven at oo si Draven na naman po.

"Hello. Ah hindi na ayos lang ako." nakangiting tanggi ko sa alok niya.

"Ah segi. Una na ako." nakangiting paalam niya.

"Segi ingat. Bye!" nakangiting tugon ko habang kumaway.

I continued walking thinking what comes to his mind why he do that. Maybe he wants to be friend on me huh? Well, its not bad I want to be friend of him also. I walk through the lobby and I didn't expecting Draven will join me walking towards the elevator. Does he wait for me? I blushed with my own thought.

"Uhmm. Hi?" pansin ko sa kanya nang makapasok na kami sa elevator, ako na unang pumansin kasi parang wala siyang balak kumausap eh.

"Hello." he simply replied.

"Do you mind if I ask why are you in the lobby? Sino hinihintay mo?" I curiously asked.

"You. I wait for you at the lobby." he replied while looking at me.

"Me? Why? May kailangan ka ba sakin?" nagpipigil kilig na tanong ko.

"Uhmm. I just wanna ask if we can be friends?"

OMG! Totoo ba to? Si Draven na crush ko gusto akong maging kaibigan?

"Sure." walang pag-alinlangang sagot ko habang nakangiti.

"So friends?" tanong niya habang lumalabas kami sa elevator tsaka nilahad ang kanyang kamay para makigpag-hand shake.

"Friends." I answered at nakipagkamay sa kanya. OMG girl ! Ang lambot ng kamay niya, nahiya naman ako sa kamay ko.

"Goodnight Mollary. Thank you." sabi niya ng nasa tapat na kami ng unit niya at ayan na naman yung smile niyang nakakalag panty.

"Your welcome. Goodnight Draven." I replied while smiling and continue walking towards my unit.

Nang makapasok na ako sa aking unit, tinapon ko ang bag ko sa couch at nagtatalon sa kilig gusto ko pa nga sanang sumigaw kaso baka marinig ni Draven nakakahiya. Grabe di ko talaga ineexpect na mangyayari to akala ko pagnapansin na niya ako wala na hanggang doon lang pero ngayon magkaibigan na kami. Waaahh! Mama yung puso ko.

Wait. Ito na kaya ang simula ng love story namin?
