XINCERE CALLIOPE'S POINT OF VIEW

I felt the cold air sweep across my face as I stepped into a restaurant section that left a refreshing sensation. The smell of some cuisine hit my nose. I looked around to find if there was any vacant table, but I was struggling to find one since there were some customers that were standing while holding their trays of food they have had ordered and were making their way to their table. I took a glance at Zac who was standing behind me. I just realized how tall he was as I bumped into him the moment I turned my back to face him. I looked up a bit to meet his gaze.

"I don't want to spend our time here waiting for a vacant table for about an hour." He chuckled a bit before pulling me outside, as he put his hand on the back of my head until we went out. I felt how his hand gently held my e

    ZACHARY FLYNN'S POINT OF VIEW It was not the first time I came here to visit the grandparents of Xincere. But I noticed just now how classy it was. Just by looking at the interior design, It was so cozy and has a refreshing ambiance. Xincere use to tell me that she wanted her room to have the same theme as her grandparents' house, probably because of its lit dim light that contributed to its pleasant atmosphere. What caught my attention was a tall lamp with a sky blue lamp shade decorated with some curve lines that looked like clouds that were placed in the corner of their living room where Grandma used to read her vintage brown colored Bible. I smiled as I saw two wooden rocking chairs that were placed on the balcony, it was well-varnished. They were probably sitting on it together. There were some porcelain figurines and ornaments displayed there. I began to remembe

    XINCERE CALLIOPE'S POINT OF VIEW "Xincere, have you heard that the son of Mr. Gil is studying in the same university as you?" Mr. Gil was of the greatest investor of our company. His son was the one who invited me to be his date during his prom night before. Mom told me that we both saw each other before in an event, but I could not remember him. It was his father who gave me a letter from his son one day when I was with my Dad in a business meeting. As I remember, I was a year ahead of him. "Seriously? Maybe he was in the other department. Besides, I could not recall much about him, I mean his appearance, so I guess it would not be easy for me to recognize him even if I may bump into him on the campus." She just chuckled and shrugged, she probably realized how gigantic the Psalms Eastern University was that it was not

    ZACHARY FLYNN'S POINT OF VIEW I noticed how neatly Mom always change my bedsheets. I did not exactly know the exact time she used to enter my room, but I knew it was when I was not around. She even took all the scrambled papers I left on my table last night. I was looking at the white ceiling of my room while thinking about it earlier. I could not stop thinking about it. What hit me was when I saw how her reaction change after she asked me about Gil, He was the junior guy who gave back her book last time. After hearing my phone rang, it ruined my train of thought. I took a glance at the screen of my phone and let it buzz for some time before deciding to finally swipe it to answer the call. It was a call from Louis Gil. "Bro," I heard him chuckling a bit on the other line.

    XINCERE CALLIOPE'S POINT OF VIEW After I have talked with Zachary earlier, I decided to talk with my dad. I was waiting as we took our dinner since he used to sit near our swimming pool alone before they go to bed. Xairo gave me a perplexed look after seeing me going back and forth just to check if Dad was already there so that I could to him. "Is there anything wrong?" He asked when I faced him, knitted my brows. "I just want to talk with Dad and tell him that I was not going to the party. Do you think it is okay?" I witnessed a sudden change in his expression as he heard it. "What's wrong with it? Go ahead and talk to him. Or you want me to tell him about it." I just smiled after realizing that he was actually acting l

    ZACHARY FLYNN'S POINT OF VIEW "Mrs. Lin, is Xincere already up?" I was looking around, but I did not see her. I won't doubt if she was still on her bed at this hour. "Haven't you seen her? She already went to school as early as 9:00 AM, I guess. Xairo drove her to school. I thought you were just busy so that you could not pick her up today. Do you mean you did not see her in the school? She told me that she will look for you in the school. Did you try to call her?" I speed up to get into the campus as fast as possible that I only have time on checking my phone was when I parked the car. "Sh*t!" I uttered after seeing some missed calls from Xincere. I was about to step out from the driver's seat when I saw her stepping outside a yellow car that was looked so familiar. I

    XINCERE CALLIOPE'S POINT OF VIEW "I'm not hungry, I don't need any medicine. I will just take some rest. You must go home now." I decided to sit as I realized that there was no need for me to pretend since he already knew that I was awake the whole time. He knew even before that I never like taking any medicine. He used to tell me that I was like a kid. It was actually because I tried to taste the medicine of my grandpa when he was sick way back when I was still in grade school so that any medicine I might take was tasted so bitter. Mom used to tell me how worried she was whenever I was sick. Since it was only my grandpa who can convince me. "Don't be so stubborn. You need to take it. Did you play in the rain with that assh*le?" I was about to go back to sleeping after realizing that he was probably starting to bumper

    ZACHARY FLYNN'S POINT OF VIEW "Zachary, Mr. Paisley excuse you and told me that he has something to ask you. And just to warn you, I guess it was about his daughter." Coach smirked before he firmly tapped my shoulder. I had no choice but to head into Mr. Paisley's office to find out what he was about to ask me this time. "Bro, where are you going?" Nate asked me while I saw him making my way going to the gymnasium while I was about to go the other way. I just sighed as he raised his brows as if waiting for my answer that caused him to burst into laughed and throw his arm around my shoulder. "Is it about Mr. Paisley again? I will not surprise if one time he will be a rival of his don for your attention." His tumultuous laughed successfully got the attention of many stude

    XINCERE CALLIOPE'S POINT OF VIEW "Good morning, my princess. How's your feeling? Zac has told me that you were being cold earlier." I looked around my room and found him not. I tightly closed my eyes after remembering how I told him to be gone when I woke up. — I was awakened as I felt someone gently put a palm on my forehead as if checking my temperature before I felt. I slightly open my eyes without having direct eye contact with him and I guess it was he did not know that I was awake that moment as he placed a kiss on my forehead. "Be well soon. It does not suit you." His voice was so soft and calm as he whispered. I began to feel intimidated as I felt his sight was nailed on me. He put up the comforter and suddenly h

    XINCERE CALLIOPE'S POINT OF VIEWS "It is you again, crying over the same man. Do you want me to punch him a big-time?" I looked in the direction of someone who had just spoken, but I could barely hear him since my vision was too blurry as my eyes began to well with tears as I try hard to hold them back. I was kneeling again in the same chapel where I used to go. I abruptly sniffed and wiped my nose and tears on the back of my hand, and suddenly realized that my handkerchief was too wet now that I could actually squeeze it because of tears. "Louis?" He smiled before offering his handkerchief to me. I burst into crying as I saw how he managed to give me the same and genuine smile he gave me from the last time I saw him. "What's the problem? Did I say anything wrong? I am

    ZACHARY FLYNN'S POINT OF VIEW "Bro, have you seen "this"?" Justice handed me his phone and I saw some pictures of me with Beatrix. I ran my fingers over my hair and tightly closed my eyes out of frustration, knowing that Xincere might probably see it already as those pictures were uploaded on the official webpage of the university. I furrowed my eyebrows as wondering how they made those photos as if we were just the two of us who were eating together, as I remember it was the night when we won on our first game, all the coaches decided to treat us for lunch. Beatrix had shared a table with us, she seated me beside me, but after I answered the call of my Mom I decided to seat beside our coach since I saw how my teammates together with some of the volleyball players had a good time. They were too noisy. I even saw some shots of pictures when she was just giving me a bot

    XINCERE CALLIOPE'S POINT OF VIEW The buzzing sound of my alarm clock was gradually awoken me this morning, I used to have alarm clocks that served as a wake-up call, those were given by Zac, probably because he was hoping that he would not need to wait for me for that long. My gaze was shifted on the neutral color blinds of my room that made me barely see the sunlight while squinted. I turned off my warm white lampshade that was on my side table before gently rubbing my eyes while stretching out my arms. I uttered a short prayer before reading the Bible that was a gift by my Mom, and I was properly seated down on my bed while still yawning. I went straight in the direction of my window and put up the binds, and I was amazed how the sunshine through my windows. Looking at the direction of my comfort room, made me want t

    ZACHARY FLYNN'S POINT OF VIEW It was my fourth repetition in doing a hundred push-ups. Xincere once asked me if why I must do intense workouts though, I already achieved what I want. Xincere did not want someone with too much bulky muscle, so I just maintain my just-enough abs and biceps. Since I used to play basketball, one and a half-hour was enough for a workout once a day. "Man, we will be having our game next week against the Engineering department," Justice uttered while lifting up the 30 pounds on his both hands. I felt the dry towel on my shoulder that was casually thrown by Nate, who was on the treadmill. I sat as I was catching my breath. There were lots of some dudes who tapped my shoulder as they passed by where I was seating. I nodded my head in acknowledgment. I was checking my phone expecting a text mess

    XINCERE CALLIOPE'S POINT OF VIEW "So, what did you say?" Mom and Geli were carefully listening and seemed like waiting for me for my answer. I deeply sighed and suddenly regret that I had told them about it. "I told me that he did not pressure me to give my answer right away. So I thought I should not say anything. And besides, it's his fault, I mean, I did not know that he will confess that suddenly, and it was not as romantic as the drama series I am watching, I did not even feel something but irritation as he calls me stupid. Stop asking Mom and Geli. It was not worth our time." I just closed my eyes and just relaxing while I was having our facial treatment in the clinic owned by Geli's mom. Since Auntie is a dermatologist, I used we used to have a discount facial treatment here, and I used to tell Geli that I like taking advantage of being her best friend. The three of us used to come here together when our schedules permit us to d

    ZACHARY FLYNN'S POINT OF VIEW "You'll go with me later, right?" I just rolled my eyes as I saw her thinking as if she had already forgotten about it. But she laughed a bit before shaking my arms. "Of course. I just thought that you just want me to treat you since it is your birthday. But since we have already eaten our dinner, you probably rescheduled it. But if you still want to go out, then I'll go as I promised. By the way, where we will go later?" It was a good thing that his brother called me. I just patted her head before going walked closer to Xairo. "Bro, I just want you to know about this from me, I already asked your dad about it, tonight, I will confess to her." I could not see his reaction as he was now sitting on my sofa while playing my Rubik's cube.

  • It's Going to be You (English version)   Chapter 37: Going Out With Him

    XINCERE CALLIOPE'S POINT OF VIEW It's been a long time since the last time I came to their house. I suddenly noticed the lavish interior in their house, Zac once told me that it was inspired by his Dad's first layout during his college years as an architecture student. Actually, my Dad and uncle were both studying architecture before they decided to put up their business, like Zac and I, they were also attending the same courses and graduated in the same years, and no doubt why they were too closed like brothers. The artwork hanging on the right corner of their white painted wall was one of the art pieces made by his grandmother before she died. And what I found so cool about their house was the built-in security features on it that have a luxury touch in the entire house. I also got by the modern interior design that contributed a lot with the spacious look and cozy

    ZACHARY FLYNN'S POINT OF VIEW "I will just take a shower quickly, just give me a moment." I was about to run going to my locker room when she held my wrist to stop me. I turned my gaze on her, who was now wearing her brother's white cap. "Just do it at home. Let's go." I just let her pull me until we got to the vast parking lot where I used to leave my car. She was barely breathing as she faced me. I noticed that she looked so jaded with her round eyes and looked as if she woke up too early this morning, but I just snorted as I realized that she was the main reason why we arrived late at the university earlier. "Why in a hurry? Don't tell me you are too excited for tonight?" I smirked and gave him smug looks. She grimaced before running to get into the passenger seat. S

    XINCERE CALLIOPE'S POINT OF VIEW "Hello, Auntie! How are you?" I received a call from Zachary's mom. I used to talk with her, just like how I was closed to my mom. I did not know why I was so comfortable talking with her. Probably because I saw a lot of similarities between her and my mom. They were so pure and used to be so sweet. "We're good here and actually, we are about to have our flight tonight and I just want to ask for your help tomorrow." I smiled as I realized that she was probably planning to have a surprise birthday celebration for Zac. After talking to her, I just found out that she already talked about it with my parents as well as with Xairo. I hastily went to Mom and asked her if we would go to their house tomorrow like what Auntie had told me. "Yeah, w
