I was in 4th year college when I had a crush
~~~
"Dominic ?!", I said giggling
"Hmm? What's that?", He answered, still looking at his laptop, he has a lot of things to work on, never mind let him be, he's really hardworking
"Did you know dean and I met yesterday", I said smiling, remembering what happened, he was surprised but eventually smiled foolishly
"Are you all right?", He said in amusement while checking my neck
"You don't have a fever but why do you keep on telling those things?", He said laughing, so I hit his hand! Why do we still have our friends who are like him? So annoying, he doesn't even know how to support me
"Why don't you believe me? Tsk, is what I'm saying impossible?", I raised an eyebrow, frowning.
"Very--", he smiled "Impossible Elie", he shakes his head still laughing, I was just pissed because I knew I couldn't get a sensible answer here, but I still kept on asking him
"You know you're really bitter! That's why you didn't get a girlfriend!", I sighed at him, I only told the pure truth, so he should accept it, wholeheartedly
"Tsk, of course I'm just waiting for her to meet me when I know she's really into me", I smirked, he's so arrogant
"Lul! You're great at imagining", I commented on what he thought
"Tsk, it's true", he was convincing me even though I didn't want to believe it
"Hey, Dom your hair will turn white in the midst of waiting", I said while eating the chips I was holding earlier
"I'm not waiting, in fact she's the one who's chasing me", I laughed, he has a strong wind over his head and his answers were really too far from what I'm saying
"Eat that, oh!", I threw the chips at him that we hadn't opened yet
"Ouch!", He pretended like he is hurt, duh seriously it doesn't hurt! It's as if, but the fool is still crying! Acting really hurt "You're hurting my heart Eli", he said while holding his chest, I just frowned, if he wasn't my friend I would have punch him "Joke!", He said as he recovered from seeing my face
"That's not a good joke Dom! Ala ---", oh shit! I covered my mouth and slapped myself but when I was not satisfied I slapped Dom instead, he screamed in pain! OA! So that means? Uwaaaaaa
Omaygadddd!
Isn't he a dream?
Uwaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
"It's not just my heart you're hurting, it's my face"
I ignored Dom, I was stunned by the man approaching us, is this it? Are we destined for each other?
He is getting closer and closer and here I am the fool who can't stop being stupid
He was wearing a leather jacket and black T-shirt underneath it, black pants paired with navy suede shoes
SIZZLING HOT BYBE!
When he's the rapist, he doesn't have to force me anymore, I'm very willing, especially since I'm amazing!
I'm just joking, I'm really such a flirt.
"Close your mouth, you're too obvious for your desire", Dom whispered, so I fixed myself and sit straight, what is that! Shame on you Gerlie!
"Good afternoon dean!", I greeted him as soon as he got close I still smiled even though I looked pale
He just looked at me and went in front of Dom! Are they close? Dominic doesn't even tell me? I'll surely tear him apart
They were talking, but I can't listen because I'm busy examining him or should I say I'm distracted
It's rare for students to get close to him, I mean you really can't get close to him for no reason unless he takes the initiative, and you're lucky then!
I swallowed when he looked at me, I saw him grin, he gestured to Dom and suddenly approach me! Shocks
He looked down to keep our eyesight, he looked at me closely, my swallowing intensified, he put the loose hairs on my ponytail behind my ear as if my breathing had stopped.
"Stop staring at me, you might like me"
☆☆☆
Whatever I do, images of him continuously pops up on my mind
~~~
"Stop staring at me, you might like me", he brought his face closer to me, he closed his eyes and I closed his eyes too, little by little our faces got closer, just a little and our faces would eventually bump each other
I can already feel his breathing, my heart seems to be coming out of my chest with a huge beating as if it had just finished and was overwhelmed.
In running, what are you thinking?
You're green, that's bad
I opened my eyes when I felt that he was gone, and then he was already with Dominic! Is he gay? I will really tear him apart! You already had too much Dominic! I was stamping my feet in annoyance when—
Brizk! Brizk!
I woke because of the unpleasing sound of my alarm clock! I thought it was true, but it was just a dream. I should celebrate it but instead I was annoyed. You're really getting into my nerves Dom!
I stretched and went into the bathroom. When I finished I had a bad mood because dean and I didn't continue our kiss, at least in a dream I kissed him, right? Dominic is really annoying!
When my routine was over, I put on my house clothes and went downstairs for breakfast, I was even surprised that I woke up early because there was no school
8:30 AM
That's early, very early ~ _-
Usually when there are no school days I wake up at ten or maybe eleven o'clock, that's why they say you'll be rich when you wake up at noon.
Rich in being lazy!
I was on my way down when I met nanny on the stairs, she looked surprised while looking at me probably because of my frowning face
"Good morning ma'am"
"Hmm, nothing's good in the morning nanny" I was even more upset
"I was going to go to your room to wake you up, but you're already awake, and you're still home? Ma'am even scolded me", my mom "Because it's noon, and you're not awake yet", noon? Is it like that when you're older? Even if it's early it's already noon? "Your daddy and your mom just arrived from their business trip from SorKor", sorKor? SoKor for sure? Amp "They brought a lot of stuffs for you", and I would eventually give it to you, I was stunned by my own thought "Are they already eating breakfast?", She acted like she was thinking "Ah it's not, it's already lunch, Sir Dominyo is also there joining them", I laughed at what she called at Dom, a little more, and it's already close to demon, and it's a real thing, pfft “I'm just wondering why you're wearing your home clothes while—”, I didn't let her finish with her speech
That's how talkative she really is, sometimes she even tells insignificant details, even a few steps and a few kilometers you walk she would probably know
She's Manang Tessie, she's Mang Bing's wife, my cousin or Nicole's driver, they really have different attitude, SO MUCH!
I left her there at the stairs, my throat might dry up if I won't stop talking to her, she won't stop until she's hungry
When I arrived in the dining area I immediately saw Domi who was eating non-stop like there's no tomorrow!
My eggs! He has three eggs on his plate and his still reaching for more! Ah! He's really shameless, feeling at home?
"Aaaaaa—ouch!", he even spit out the egg he ate, yack!
"Why are you here? Oh, please show us a bit of your shyness, you are so voracious!”, I sighed at him
"I'm eating obviously right? Tsk"
"Would you still call it eating? It's like you're going to eat all of that eggs!", I became even more annoyed with him when I remembered what I saw earlier
"Baby, don't be like that, he is our visitor", mom said laughing, why is she laughing? Am I funny?
"Right aunt, your daughter is really bad", he said, tsh whatever
"What?! Me, being mean? That's my eggs!",
"How long have you been laying eggs?", He sighed as well
It made me think? Am I laying eggs? Yes! My egg cell! But that's another egg!
"Mom", I begged, asking for help, she just shook her head
"There are more eggs in the kitchen baby, Manang Tessie can cook it for you just let Dom eat whatever he wants"
"Aish! I'm your daughter, and you're not his parents! Dad!", When you can't get it from your mom take it to your dad
"Mommy's right baby, mommy's knows best remember?", He winked at me afterwards, I was just rolled my eyes and then put my thoughts aside because I knew I wouldn't win, and I have no ally here, right now.
I stared at Dom, and why was he in his uniform? There's no class, right?
"Why are you in your uniform?", I said laughing, he laughed more
"And you, why are you wearing your home clothes?", I wondered? What does he mean?
"Huh?"
"Deaf"
"I'm ashamed of you bubu"
"Bubu?"
"Deaf Blind = BuBu, tsk"
"Tsk, we have our classes, girl.”
"Omo! We have classes, you mean to say?", I was hoping that what I'm thinking isn't right because if it is then I'm doomed
"We're late", he answered careless, he didn't even really deny it or made a lie
"What the hell", I murmured
"Hell really so let's just not attend our classes, I already talked with dean", he calmly said and ate once again
"Oh my gosh! It's so embarrassing! He might turn me off! Why did I wake up late? He doesn't like someone who's late!”, I was about to cry when I heard something
*cough *cough
I looked at the one who coughed, and I was shocked to see—
Dean?I approached him and stared at him carefully, I even slapped him to find out if it was really true and not a dream, again."Wtf", he said while rubbing his cheek"O my gosh!", I said and couldn't help but to screamThey looked at me and dean with confusion registered on their facesI haven't even gotten over with what had happened last week, I mean that was unbelievable who would have thought that he would approach me right?Yes, what happened last week we're all true, but the kissing part was already my dream, I wish it's true thoI quickly sat down next to mom, our household has a twelve sitter dining table and only paintings of flowers could be seen all over it, on the side you can see a vase with white roses on it and a picture of Lola's portrait, mommy's momDad is in the center while on the right side is m
"Let me see", I said in between of silence, we are already here on the terrace, looking for some fresh air after we ate because when we stay inside the house we would definitely get pollution."It's nothing", he can't look at me while speaking, wow is he embarrassed?"Whatever but why did you pick it up? You know that it has a lot of small pieces of broken glasses", I said annoyed, doesn't he know what we call 'be careful' tsh"Bugbog Berna?", He said smiling, it's really annoying, when you're already worried about him, but he doesn't even care"HA-HA you're so funny, really. How much is your talent fee?", I said with a smirk"Tsk you were just laughing because I'm your happy pill", he said while smirking "I'll go ahead.", he continued then left leaning on the railings"Oh sure?", I pretended like I don't believe him"Why, do you want me
"How's your shopping with Dominic, baby?", Mom smiled when I entered the kitchen, she was baking a cake as usual. When she's here at home all she does was to bake anything she thinks of"It's okay, I already bought my dress for tomorrow", I answered weakly"Good to hear that you might get wild again if you can't find or didn't like your clothes just like what happened before we didn't even attend 'because you cried so hard I don't know, but you're like a baby who was robbed of a lollipop, anyway did something happen? Where's Dom?”, she said with a wide smile, usually when Dom and I go out instead of going straight on his home he is still hanging out at our home, so that explains why my mom is feeling strange"He's with Nicole!", I didn't intend to say it louder but it does so the other maids who were busy looked at me stunned and the other maids who were passing by stopped walking and turned to where I was, while m
It was two pm when I finished my hair and make-up to, and I'm sure my parents are already there downstairs, it was still early, so I opened my phone first and read some novelMy phone suddenly rang1 new message from Mr. CrushMaybe I'll read it later, I went first to my life-size mirror next to my bed to see if what did I look*knock *knock"Come in"*footsteps"Ma'am, your parents told me to knock you here because you will already leave", said by one of our housemates, if I'm not mistaken, she's Manang Tess's child, Alexa and her have the same age and grade, my parents are the one who pays for her school, there's no need for her to help here, but Manang Tess said that this is the only way for them to be able to pay for her daughter's education, so every weekend or if she's free then she just come here.I retouched m
"Ma'am Gerlie", I looked behind me as someone spoke, I was still holding my arm which was bitten by a mosquito"Ah, yes?", I asked Manang Daisy, the chief manager or caretaker of the house with a smile."You're supposed to come in and eat", she replied while smiling back, huh? What about dean? Will I not wait for him?"Uhm, I'm still waiting for someone hehe", I said with a forced smile"This is how you'll do, just go inside, and I'll just wait for whomever you're waiting for. I'll tell you right away when he arrives", will I accept Manang's offer? Ehh, maybe dean will be displeased if I don't wait for himManang convinced me a lot of times before I agreed, I'm also hungry huhu if I'm at home at this time we're already finish eating, and I'm just doing my social media, or maybe I'm already asleepI immediately entered the house and as soon as I
"What did you just say? You're too serious""Guys we'll go upstairs, we can't bond with you right now because Alexa's trainor was already upstairs, she needs to practice, and I need to be there also, if you want something just call Manang Daisy or you can see me in the practice room, it's in the third floor ", Yuniza's long line interrupted I haven't even noticed what Dom had said"Maybe we will be okay, no need to bother", Dom said smiling, he's smiling like a happy kid because he's at his crush's house"Okay you can use the entertainment room if you want to", she replied then gave us her genuine smile before grabbing Alexa's hand and directly went upstairs"Woi, what did you say, huh?", I asked him, I couldn't hear it properly when he was saying it a few moments ago, I was deaf sometimes, well figuratively"Nothing, are you done?""Obviously y
"Stay away from him, his past will ruin you", he said meaningfully before I left which repeated several times in my mind, what is he referring to?We're here, at home, to be exact I'm here on my bedroom and is now ready to sleep, lately I didn't survive with the teasing of mom and dad, they told me to answer him already, I'm supposed to be the one to woo, I really don't understand my parents, are they already selling me? Why would they push me to Dom if I don't want to? Maybe they like him? Oh my, Dom is the third party and will break up our family? Wahhh cannot be!*THE NEXT MORNING*"Hello, Alex are you busy?", I called Alex as soon as I woke up I wanted to do something and I shouldn't ask Nicole about it, instead I asked her sister out, that will be the very wrong move I'll make if ever, nah ah, ah"Not really but I have a practice now with my partner and the trainor of course for our talent and e
Eunice is already back while holding her order which was pancakes, chocolate cake, and coffee for the two of us and also for Alexa, but she had a juice instead of coffee."So what's up?", Yuniza is really the one who cannot wait of what I'm going to say"So—”"That's so difficult, you know just answer him it'll be easier!", She suggested, have I already said anything?"Because I'm confused—”"Don't be confused, just find out who you like the most and the one that who's on top and most importantly choose who you really want, follow your heart", Alexa said passionately when I haven't actually said anything yet, but her advice were already connected to my problem"Stupid", Nicole said and punched Alexa"Ouch! Stop hitting me, Nicole!", her sister pouted at her, did they forget that I'm with them?
Our family as well as our friends were happy to hear that we were already officially together. My boyfriend was also so happy that he immediately asked me out, he said we really need to celebrateHe didn’t tell me where we were going, he drove and while on the trip I was just asleep, he would only wake me up when it was time to eat or for a stop over at a store“Babe, wake up. We are already here”, he said gently while lightly tapping my shoulder, I was stunned because of that“That fast?”, I rubbed my eyes“Not really, you’re just asleep the whole time.”, He turned off the engine and went off the car with his shades on, I thought he’ll left me but he opened the door on the passengers seat, I smiled"You can now go down, your highness", he bowed while one hand was behind him and the other was holding the car door, I just laugh
I already told my parents about Dom's courtship plan, they are so happy, I feel like they are even happier than me, they seem like their the one who'll answer Dom or be with him And ever since I told him to woo me, we can't be separated, he's so clingy even at home, he doesn't want to leave—just like now "Come home, I'll practice for the presentation, it's only a few days", I pretended like I'm annoyed to drive him away It looks like he already wanted to live here because of how long he stays with us "I told you that I can help you, hmp", he said cutely, he gets even closer with me for a hug “No, you can't” “Why? Because you are distracted? ”, He said annoyed and instead of releasing me, he tightened his grip on me. I was coughed because of that "Stop it! I can't breathe here, oh! ”, He didn't hug me a
Unknown's POVI was about to go out of the gate when I suddenly heard someone shouting, it really caught my attention. It seems like it's from someone I know ...I looked in the direction where the noise was coming from and I was not mistaken, I knew the owners of this voiceIt’s just amazing that even how plenty of trouble Schmidt got involved it’s only now that Zuareza has intervened'What kind of mess does Schmidt want to do this time?', A question suddenly popped up on my mindA syndicate dad and a war freak daughter.I just laughed, who else would wonder if you can already see the father himself, the daughter just brought the resultIf what's the tree that's the fruit, guava's can bear mangoes after allSchmidt suddenly tweaked Zuareza, so I whistled, smooth move huhI want
I just smiled with myself while I was walking when I stopped and realized that I need to see the person who sent me the package.I was about to turn to my direction, heading to the dean's office when I saw a familiar man walking down the stairs, so I immediately ran to him but of course I need to pretend like I'm not really that excited to see him“Hi!”, I greeted him as he was walking down the stairs, he was on our building, and I’m sure he was looking for me, well probably.He's so caring that he even made sure I was okayI winced at my own thought, maybe all the things that this one is doing will even make more meaningful to me“Oh, Ms. Zuareza it's good to see you ”, he smiled that gives me tinglesI stopped myself on smiling too widely, he might think that I was strange“Uhm, yah? You're prob

Of course me, just me you're thinking of other stuffs that's why you can't relateI'm just so happy knowing me and my crush had the same feelings, we're mutual.Do you envy me? No baby, don't envy me 'cause trust me your crush likes you just tell him or her what you truly feel you never know, maybe you two have the same feelings.“Elie, did you already think of your recipe for our final presentation?”, Samantha asked me when I was about to sit on my chairWe will have our final presentation next week, and we have to do something, we have two choices to choose onThe first one was the dish which will be originally made by us, if we made this for sure we will receive high grades because aside from the taste they would also judge your dish base on its uniq

DOMINIC'S POVWhere the hell did she go?I just laughed on what she said then she's missing? Have I laughed that long?I was really worried about her, she was still afraid of ghosts as well as heights, but I was with her earlier while trying it but now, I lost her. I was too careless to forget I had anyone else with me.This girl really, she knew that she's with me, but she left. She should wait for me, even if she doesn't want me with her, she wouldn't let me notice. And her leaving me proves that she doesn't really want to be with me, but with my cousin? Let's not talk about him.He has a lot of secrets.'So as you?', my subconscious mind interrupted.Yeah? Maybe, we have the same blood after all. I smiled sarcastically, we weren't the same, and we wouldn't be.Right. I'm going to look for Elie, not to gossip. I'm n
"Hi my dear", the woman in front of me said with a smile, yes she is a woman! Can only Arabs say dear?I immediately trembled with fear, not because I didn’t know her but because of the aura she possessed, she was like a scary ghost that you wouldn’t want to see.Owshii! Owshii! I knew it!I just stepped back again and again just to get away from this person in front of me, but what can I do? She also steps closer to me, closer to where I amThe Horror House here is really bad, the ghosts are really doing their ‘supposed' roles, in fairness from the costume to the intimidation of their roles were really good maybe they memorized it, especially the one in front of me and I feel like I can pee on my underclothes if everShe's in a long black dress, and she's tall, I can't see her face well because she's blocking the light, but I can say she's beautiful, but of cou
"Dom let's go to the next ride", my thoughts were shattered when she suddenly spoke to me“Huh? You just finished eating so you might get sick”, I said worriedly"Luh, that won't happen", she refused, wanting to finish these extreme ridesIt's not really supposed to be like this, first, I thought of an amusement park but we will just take chill rides and then the second was a sunset date, it seems romantic but I still chose the previous plan because if I choose the later she might be surprised, she was slow and she might think that we were just taking a walk"Let's rest first""Not anymore, let's go", she insisted while pulling meTsk, stubbornnessGERLIE'S POVAfter eating, next stop, Pendulum Swing RidePendulum Rides are amusement rides based on the motion of a fixed p
