Yarrow Series #1: Chase (COMPLETED)

Chapter 1

Disappointment

"Stop following me." he calmly said. I bit my lips. I looked at him intently. Ang mga mata niyang matatalas na akala mo ay galit, ang kilay niyang makapal, ang maputi niyang kulay at ang bilugan niyang mukha ay nakatingin sa akin.

He's beautifully handsome.

Spontaneously my feet stopped walking. Everything seemed to be in slow motion at the same time as my heart was pounding. I glanced at the man I like for a long time. I let him walk away from me. I chuckled softly. It's okay, Cassie. You'll still see him tomorrow.

Tumalikod na ako at bumalik sa classroom ko. Habang naglalakad ako sa hallway, ang mga pamilyar na estudyante at tumitingin sa akin na para bang isa akong wirdong taong nakita nila. Ngumiti at hindi ko sila pinansin.

"Hey, you alright?" Suddenly, Carla approaches me. She's my only classmate who is not afraid and thinks I am not weird. Siya lang din naman ang bestfriend ko.

"Yep." I answered and sat on my chair beside her. I also fixed my eyeglass.

"Are they bullying you, again?" She asked and glared at my classmates so they took their eyes off me. I chuckled and looked at her.

Again, I'm amazed at her.

"Stop staring, kaya ka napagkakamalang weird ang hilig mong manitig." sabi nito. I fixed my table and I put the notebooks and books we will use for today's class.

"Sorry, salamat pala." I thanked her.

I saw her rolled her eyes and smiled after.

Maganda si Carla, bumagay sa kaniya ang pantay niyang tan color, at ang color brown niyang buhok. Malalim ang mata nito at kapag titingnan mo ay akala mo masungit.

Ako naman ay malambot at mahinhin daw ang mukha, my wavy hair suited my round eyes and white color. I have a few freckles on my face, but they aren't visible until you get very close. Many people mistakenly believe that I am a pure foreigner, but I'm not. My father is half-Spanish and my mother is half-American and the rest is Filipino blood.

"What happened?" She asked and I know what does she mean by that. As usual, sasabihin ko nanaman kung anong ginawa ko tungkol kay Isaac.

"Sinundan mo nanaman siya? Seriously Cassie, stop doing that." tumitig siya sa akin habang nakapangalumbaba. Bumaba ang tingin niya sa kamay ko.

"Ginagawa mo pa rin iyan?" Tanong niya sabay turo sa kamay ko.

"Oh, this dough? I'm just playing with this." I reason out. Kinapa niya ang forehead ko. "You have a fever. Bakit ka pa pumasok?" Bakas sa boses niya ang pag-aalala.

I chuckled softly. "Come on Carla, I'm okay. It just that my hand feels numb." sabi ko at pinakita sa kaniya ang dough na nasa kamay ko.

She sighed deeply. Mabuti na lang ay dumating na ang professor namin kaya natigil na rin ang tanong niya.

Breaktime is my favorite time, you can say this is my long-awaited time every time I go to school.

Kidding.

Umupo kami ni Carla sa usual seat namin malapit sa entrance. Tumayo na siya pagkatapos niyang makuha ang pera namin at hihintayin ko naman siya. This has become our routine because I can't hustle and wait long just to get our food.

"Here's our food, let's eat." nilapag niya na ang pagkain namin, of course, hindi namin kinakalimutang mag pray bago kumain. That's our become etiquette before eating.

"Right, I forgot to tell you, teachers' day is coming, will you join the performance of our section? Alam mo na, sayaw sayaw, kanta kanta?" she suddenly asked while we're eating.
