To Infinity And Beyond

CHAPTER IV: View

                   He is now standing in front of me, having the best smile he can give to anyone. Standing in front of everyone included me, while saying so many reasons why he deserved by the love he is willing to give. Giving some things that any girls can flatter their hearts and appreciated it. And finally, asking if he can be love back by... of course not me- it's Faye.

 What's happening here? Flashback...

It's Saturday again, and obviously, if that's the day... it's orphanage day. I went early on orphanage, the usual. San Carlos Orphanage is one ride away, bus. Since, Dake and I are living in one small town. Yeah, we rode the same bus. And as usual, he didn't noticed me. Actually, we didn't rode the bus together. I rode first, and seated at the back part of the bus. Coz, I hate many passengers. While him, seated at the front part of the bus. That is why I saw him, but he didn't saw me. 

Finally! The bus arrived in our destination. Actually not really, because you still need to walk for about 10 minutes.  No public transportation are allowed to enter that road to San Carlos Orphanage, because there are lots of kids are in and out of it.So there, I slowly walk so that I will never keep up with Dake. But, unfortunately, yes. Dake stopped at ice cream store and he finally saw me. 

"Hey! You're there also. Wait. Sabay na tayong pumasok. Ubusin ko lang 'tong ice cream. Gusto mo?", nakangiting bati niya sa akin.

I wish that smile was truly for me. When I know in fact, the reason why he started to volunteer here.

I smile and said, "Ah, okay. No, no thank's! I already ate breakfast. Sige, I'll wait for you", like forever? Joke.

After 123456 years, he finished eating his ube-I-hate-flavor-of-ice-cream. He looks so happy while telling me about everything he loves about Faye. I just nod and agree in every descriptions he tells about her. Even though, she is my rival. Yes. I pretty much agree, because as I said, she almost perfect.

He also said that, he intentionally went early in the orphanage because he wants to prepare something for to Faye. Ohkay.

He also asked me if I mind helping him, I said sorry because I have class on that morning. Excuses, self. Actually it's half meant and half excuse. I'm not that saint. So I'd rather avoid myself to the things that makes me hurt not that I don't like Faye.

There's nothing wrong in avoiding the things that makes you feel hurt, right?

While, I'm on my class,Dake never go out of my mind. His beautiful smile, his presence. The way he makes me fall for him even though he's in love with someone else.

After my class, I saw someone standing outside the room. he waved at me while smiling. He is so handsome. Of course my friend, Julian.

"Heeey! Faster!!!", padmamadali niya sa akin.

Atat ni koya.

"Have you heard the news?", nagaalangan tanong niya sa akin.

"What? About Dake and Faye?", cross arms I said, looking like expecting it but, feel a little disappointed.

"Hala! how did you know?", nagtataka naman ngayong sabi niya.

"well, nauna pa ako sa first makaalam. Coz, he tell that personally kanina nang magkasabay kaming pumunta dito!"

"Aw... how does it feel?", he become sad for me.

Julian become my friend here, and we become super close, that he also one of my friends knows my feelings for Dake. He may not know that I have crush on you. Like why would I say that thing, right? But, he also been there when I become sad and hurt about Dake.
