Aidan Domingo was a sheltered child. She preferred doodles and diaries over crushes and slumber parties. Her whole existence revolved around studying, doing house chores, and cooking, instead of hanging out, sleeping over, and socializing.
One day, she comes across an arcade game that catches her eye. For an entire week, it drives her crazy with curiosity. As she finally gives in to the push-button experience, a challenger of uncanny confidence--and deep-set dimples--breaks her victorious streak.
Will he be more than her Player Two?
*****
A/N: Arcade will span the length of Aidan's teenage life. So, don't worry. She won't be twelve forever.
It is set in the Philippines with cultural references to the said country. Allow me to transport you in Aidan's not-so-typical world, social backgrounds (of that time), and some use of the local language (with glossary, of course!).
Oh, by the way, I'm entering the #Wattys2015. So, if you've enjoyed this story, please don't forget to share it with your friends.
" I hate you.." I said looking straight into his eyes with anger and hurt in my heart.
I felt his warm breath on my face Standing at such close proximity. If it had been a different situation We would have ended making out heavily.
But now the thought of it makes me feel sick. "I wish I have never met you." He said closing his eyes and raking his dirty blonde hair.
"Well let god give you your wish. Because I am never gonna see you again Vincent."I said not even looking at his face.
He just Shrugged at my words and said "I'll be glad if that happens."
" Fine.Its a Goodbye then" I said and turned without even waiting for his reply. After few steps I heard him say "Goodbye Nora" To be honest it hurt.
But I'll get over it.
We both walked away ending our two years of Love.
