UNEXPECTED LOVE

14

Dawn Beatrice POV

I buried my face in my pillow and scream and poured out all of my frustrations,my shame and annoyance  out in autocorrection.

D_BeaCruz:* Hate.

I replied. for him to understand that I was just typo. What did I do to deserve this?, I laid down on my bed looking at the ceiling.  Wondering if what should I do.

" Why do I even care?" I asked to myself and get my phone and place it on to my side table. I panicked a little when my phone suddenly beeped again.

I stare at his name for a couple of seconds before answering his call.

[" I'm sorry," ]He said after I answered,

I sighed,[ "For what?"] I mumbled.

[" For telling you I love you..." ]My forehead creased, why is he saying sorry?, Alam ko naman na nang aasar lang siya, kaya hindi 'ko siya maintindihan kung bakit siya nag sorry.

I cleared my throat, [" T-thats okay.. I didn't take it seriously though."]

[ I know. I just don't like lying to you..]

[ Can you stop playing with me? You're confusing me justian.] I answered and hanged up. Throwing my phone in my bed in frustration.

What's wrong with him? What made him think like that? I suddenly felt awkward. What was the point saying that? I felt my disappointment and anger rising. 

I spent minutes trying to clear my mind, before  I go to sleep.  So I just get my phone again to scroll through my social media accounts, so I can already feel asleep.

I suddenly felt sleepy, when another notification from my Instagram popped, that someone posted an Instagram story. Like I care who it was.

I accidentally tapped the notification. And it was an Ig story from Justian. It was another picture of me, but it was blur photo of me walking while holding a coffee. I remember that it was, when we're walking back on his car,the time that we dated at the coffee shop. I noticed that it has an caption below,

" Perfection only exists, when I look at her."

After I viewed his story he messaged me,
JGR.Ramos: I don't want to lie to you. I don't love you.

I don't know why but my heart suddenly felt heavy, and my eyes started to water. I was about to type something,
When he send something that made my  butterflies on my stomach awake.

JGR.Ramos: I don't love you. Not yet."
JGR.Ramos: But I like you. I wanted to be with you. I like you. I like the way you smile because of me. I like the way you calling my name.  You have no idea, how much I like you, and how much you make me smile and happy every time that we're together.

I groaned and massage my head. His making me confused!

D_BeaCeuz: Stop giving me false hopes.

JGR.Ramos: I'm not. I really, really like you Bea. I really do.

D_BeaCruz: You know what?

JGR.Ramos: What?

D_BeaCruz: Let's go to sleep. May pasok ka pa bukas right?

JGR.Ramos: Yeah, I wouldn't be able to see you :(

D_BeaCruz: You can.

JGR.Ramos: In my dreams?

D_BeaCruz: Yes. Goodnight Justian.

JGR.Ramos: Goodnight.
JGR.Ramos: Bea?

D_BeaCruz: What? I told you to sleep.
