The Hidden Rising Star 1

⚫️Cassandra's POV

Five days have passed but Mom was still busy.

In fact, I've received a message from her earlier.

MOM:
I'm sorry, sweetie! Can't make it today. Again. hope you forgive Mommy?

CASSANDRA:
It's okay, Mom. Don't mind me. I understand that hectic schedule of yours. I'm also going to Cathy's place today. Don't forget to eat on time! love you!

MOM:
Why am I so lucky to have you? Have fun with your friend today. I will, sweetie. I love you the most!

Mang Oscar drove the car and dropped me off at Cathy's house.

"Cassandra, It's been a long time. Come in." Cathy's Mom greeted me.

I smiled and greeted them back. "Si Cathy po?" I asked.

"Nasa taas. Sige na puntahan mo na." Cathy's Dad told me and I nod.

I went upstairs and saw that the door of Cathy's room was open.

I peaked and saw her seating on her studying table.

"CATHERINE!" I screamed and freaked her out.

I was laughing my heart out while she catches her breath.

"Bwisit." She just uttered.

I hugged her and sat on her bed while she looks at the mirror in front of her.

"Am I ugly?" I was surprised to hear that from her.

"Catherine, You're not."

"Then why does Achu isn't talking to me anymore?"

"Malay mo, Busy lang."

"Siguro nga malas lang talaga ako pagdating sa pag-ibig. Just like on Matthew."

"He has his own reasons why he does that."

She was silent and rotate her seat causing her to face me.

"But he still chooses to leave me over that freaking sport."

"Is that why you're being ashamed of your self? Catherine, Maganda ka. Since the day Matthew left, You become blinded by your flaws and can't even see your own worth."

"Nevermind."

She changes the topic."How about you? What's going on between you, Zayn and Julian?"

"Well, After avoiding them I decided to follow your advice."

Catherine looked at me with all seriousness.

"Another random question, besh."

"Yep?"

"Sinong iboboto mo?" She smirked after asking.

"Why would I tell you?" I asked her back.

"Your crush, Ano?!" Pangungulit niya.

"Hoy! Hindi ah." Pagtanggi ko at nagsimula siyang lumapit saakin.
