I'm in Love with the Campus Crush

Online Battlefield

I started daydreaming about my online world.

My world now seems empty only Skylia and I inhabited my world. I started searching for more individuals. There I saw these groups which had a banner "Skylia is a mutual friend" I went to check them out. As I got closer a crowd then covered my path

"Looks like they are also famous better not get involved" I said then I went on my way

I then received a message. I quickly checked it out

"Looks like someone is spending time on the online world" from Skylia

"Just checking what it is truly capable off" I replied

She then video chatted me. I answered her call

Then she popped out beside me

"Hey!" I greeted

"This is only one of its features. You can also send a voice clip, images, files and so much more" she informed

"What is this mutual friend thing?" I asked

"Well if you have the same friend that makes it mutual"

"Come with me I'll show you something"

"See the button on the top side of your screen? I want you to click it. It will show you tons of people with whom you have a mutual friend. Maybe there you can find new friends."

"Just remember what I said add only the people you already know" she said then the call ended

I gave it a try and she was correct. I saw different faces which I am not familiar with. I scrolled down and checked them one by one then I saw a lady which looks like Ms. Paterson

I clicked her profile and her name is Elena Cruz Paterson. I started checking her post. I was surprised by her in a bikini. I didn't expect Ms. Paterson to have a sexy body. I only thought that she works all day long wearing her corporate attire

I sent her a friend request. Moments after my phone vibrated looks like a message

"What's with you adding me in Instaglam" from Ms. Paterson

"Nothing just finding some friends that's all. Would it kill you to accept my request?"

"Nice body by the way. You really stand out in your bikini" I replied

I went to check her profile once more to see if she has more to offer but looks like she blocked men I can't find her user anymore

I gave her a call

"Hey! What's up with you blocking me in Instaglam. I only wanted some friends you know" I shouted

"Huh! Fine but next time don't be such a creep." She said then hangs up

I then received a friend request coming from her. I immediately accepted it and checked her profile but it looks like she hides all her sexy pictures.

"Darn it I should have saved one before telling her" I said as I snapped my finger

I looked at the time. I was shocked to see that I have spent two hours just checking my account. I didn't know that this app can surely kill time. I stood up and charged my phone. Then my hands felt numb which never happened before

"Never again" I said to myself as I looked at my phone

"Or unless Skylia calls me" I said with love for her

I made a couple of stretches and went to the kitchen and prepared dinner. I looked at the dining table and I remember what we did earlier. I ran back to my bedroom and grabbed my phone

I texted Skylia

"If you're not busy how about dinner at my place" I texted

After awhile I received a message

"Sorry Ramon I am not at the dorm right now. I am at home I will be back went the classes starts" she replied

I felt sad all of a sudden

"What were you thinking? Of course she is busy." I said to myself

I finished cooking dinner, I prepared the table and ate. While eating I browsed the app once more. I had so many friend requests from people I don't know. I am tempted to accept them but I stand my ground

I checked their profiles. Looks like all of them are Skylia's friends I could tell because we have a mutual friend. I browsed their profiles checking their post then I saw this group photo

I started clenching my fist the moment I saw it and it was posted a couple of minutes ago. Skylia is with a group of friends and someone is acting all cuddly against her. I then accidentally tap the picture of the guy a name popped out "Vermilion Von Dire"

I spit out what I am eating

"What this is the Vermilion guy he was talking about" I shouted

"I thought they were rivals"

"She also said that she was at home. She must be toying with me." I said as I slam my hand against the table

I started crying. I don't know why but I have this awful feeling. I lost my appetite so I went to my bedroom. I grabbed a pillow and cried it all out.

"So this is a broken heart feels like"

"How did I easily get so attached to her? I know we just met but why does it hurt so bad"

"Did it really expect that much from her or I just assumed that she likes me back. I don't know what's real anymore"

Then someone called me. I checked it out and it was Skylia I didn't bother answering. She called over and over and I got pissed from that stupid ring tone. I slide my phone out of my room

I then started questioning myself. I felt worthless.

"Am I not enough?"

"Is it that hard to love me back?"

"Have I done something wrong?"

"Is it all in my mind"

"Isn't my best enough for her?"

"Did I assume too much?" Questions running in my mind

I then stopped crying and looked like I had no tears left to cry. I just wanted this day to be over but I can't sleep. All of these over thinking keeps me wide awake.

I stood up and picked up my phone and looked like I had tons of missed calls. I opened the app there and saw numerous messages coming from Skylia. I opened the message it's just a spam message of "Are you there".

I walked towards my terrace, opened its doors and lay on a hammock. The sky was cloudless so you could see all the stars twinkle in the dark. I felt so relax like all my worries starts to fade away

Then I remembered a thought. Her eyes sparkle like the stars in the night sky. I started to dropped tears

"How foolish of me resembling her to such a relaxing scenery like this"

"But why am I still crying. Snap out of it Ramon you deserve someone better" I said to myself

I started racking the hammock. It feels nice seeing the stars like these. Moments after my phone rang. I checked who's calling at a time like this and it was Skylia

I started having double thoughts as to whether or not to answer her call. I took a deep breath and answered it.

"Hello" I greeted

"Hi Ramon, sorry if I call in a time like this, I called numerous times earlier but it seems you're not answering. I have something to tell you"

"I" then the call was cut

I checked my phone and it looks like the battery is dead. I went back to my bedroom and charged the phone. As soon as I lay down in bed I felt sleepy.

I then woke up and my tummy was rumbling. I looked at the time and it was five in the morning. I went to the kitchen and heated water. I lay my head on the table as I wait for the water to boil

Then I remembered that Skylia's call was cut and she hasn't said what she was supposed to say. I went back to my bedroom and grabbed my phone. I immediately opened it. There was a message I opened it

"What happened to you why did you hang up on me anyways I want you to do an errand for me. Kindly fetch my school uniform at the main building tomorrow morning" from Skylia

Then there is this other message

"Get your uniform at the main building seven in the morning don't be late" from Ms. Paterson

The water then starts to boil. I prepared my instant noodles. As soon as it's ready I dig in

I then took a shower afterwards. I put some decent clothes, grabbed my bike and went on my way

I arrived at the building with time to spare. I entered inside I saw these four separate stations

"Good day Sir what level are you on?" A staff asked

"I am a freshman" I politely answered

He then leads the way to the green station. Looks like the different stations are for different year levels each has a corresponding color coding. Freshmen seems to be green

I fell in line and waited for my turn. Minutes passed and it's my turn

"I.D. please" the staff asked

I showed my I.D. she then grabs it and searched for my uniform

"Sir can I also have Ms. Skylia's uniform" I asked

"You must present her I.D. first" another staff said

I gave Skylia a call

"Hello Ramon did you get my uniform?" She asked

"Well they asked me to show your I.D. before they hand it to me" I said

She then hung up and tried video calling me. I immediately answered

"Sir will this do" I asked as I showed them our video chat

Skylia shows her I.D. and it seems it's okay with the staves. They handed over the uniform and I went on my way

"Thank you so much Ramon" she gave a flying kiss then hangs up
