Our Unexpected Story

Chapter 2: My Muse

2nd day of class. I went to school earlier because I didn't want to be late, as I entered our classroom I already saw Ashiana's face who's beside my seat. I didn't expect that she was an early bird either. but unlike yesterday she smiled at me this time.

When our adviser came into our room she decided to rearrange our seat plan again because of our classmates who were absent yesterday but gladly me and Ashiana remained seatmate as well as Zapanta. but a group of clamorous girls placed ahead of us. they are so really loud and it annoys me. Yes, I am also a hyper person but I know my limit unlike them. So since they already caught my attention I started to observe them one by one and the first person I saw was the girl who stood up just to talk to the guy on the other row, let's just call her a ponytail girl because it's obvious that she wears a ponytail and it undeniably suits her. Her uniform was a bit loose but she was cute, especially she looked clean . Yes, she was the first one who passed my standard.

Our professor started to conduct the election for classroom officers I didn't raise my hands to vote for other positions because I was not familiar with the candidates so I didn't think they were deserving of the said position as well as they were all noisy. Until the nomination for classroom muse and escort was open Ms. Ponytail Girl was nominated as our muse and for the first time I saw a person who was deserving of the position so I raised my hand to vote for her and I also convinced Ashiana and my other seatmates to vote her because I really want her to win that title. Guess what?... She really does!! I'm so glad for her.

When the election was done our adviser asked the winner to stand up so I looked to Ms. Ponytail Girl But when I looked on her side an unexpected girl showed up, I saw Natalie Montefalco !! She has been my crush since my first year, I secretly liked her since then !!!

Oh my gosh, Oh my gosh!!! my heart was screaming inside.

* Flashback *

It was a normal day in my life as a first year when my friend Princess ask us to join her to go to the canteen since it was our break time.

" Yshane, Anne I am bored let's go to the canteen and see what's on their menu today"

" I know you girl, you only use the canteen as an excuse for you to look for shean at section love" Anne said revealing the hidden agenda of princess

" Wait, Who's shean?" I asked Anne since I'm not familiar to that name because we are not at the same university in grade school.

" Shean was his ultimate crush since grade school she used to follow him around since then " Anne explained who is shean in princess life.

" FYI I already moved on, past is past duh. "Princess rolled her eyes while being defensive but it was so obvious that she was lying.

" Alright, let's just go to the canteen I actually want to eat their Iced candy " I changed the topic because I knew that they wouldn't stop.

While on our way to the canteen Anne and Princess were still arguing about Shean, not until when we were in front of section Love's classroom, it was so obvious that Princess got quiet and started searching for someone on the window.

" See? I'm right. trust me Shane she's looking for Shean" Anne's confidently proving herself.

" Wait can you tell me who's Shean in there?" I asked Anne to point out who is Shean was because I wanted to know the reason why my friend looked crazy in love with him

" He's there!" she pointed to the guy behind the teachers' table.

But that guy was not the one who caught my attention it was the short-haired girl. when I see her it feels like I can't take off my eyes of her because I don't want her to leave out of my sight.

" Can you tell me what that girl's name is? " I asked Anne without taking my eyes off on that girl.

" Oh, if I'm not mistaken she's Natalie Montefalco why?" Anne sounded confused about my action.

" Nothing, Are you close with her?"

" No, we're just schoolmates in grade school"

" She's cute isn't she?" Me admiring her cuteness.

" Do you like her?" That Anne's question shocked me.

" ah? Of course not! " Me defending myself and got back to my senses.

" Oii looks like there's another defensive.." Anne starts to tease me as well

" I'm not let's just go to the canteen" I changed the topic to escape the embarrassing moment.

Since that day I started to admire her from afar, I secretly look for her whenever we go to section Love. and I always pretend to go to C.R. just to steal a glance from her.

* Present *

" Do you know who that girl is? " I asked Ashiana if she was familiar with Natalie.

" No." She answered, giving an uninterested vibe.

" You know what? I want her to be my friend! She's my goal from now on."

" Good luck to you then." She said while continue reading w*****d on her phone.

I was so lucky!! Thanks G!

I really wanted us to be friends but I don't know how can I do that, I don't think I can reach her.

Our adviser asked us to write what our expectations of her and to this school year as our first activity.

" Hi, Do you have an extra ballpen? " The girl in front of Ashiana asked her looks like she will borrow one.

" Yes." as usual Ashiana answered in nonchalant voice.

" Can I borrow one of your pens because I forgot mine hehe." This girl sounds jolly and she even looks like a hyper person.

" Okay. " Then Ashiana gave her a pen.

" So while you are writing your expectations let me do our attendance, just say present and raise your hands if I call your name as well as say the average of your grades last year. Understood?" Mrs. Vasquez said.

And my classmates answered, "Yes Ma'am!"

" Aliyanna Mira O. Baligat"

" Present! "

" And your average?"

" 91 Ma'am "

" Are you the Grandchild of Mrs. Baligat in the Senior High School department? "

"Yes Ma'am"

Oh.. So that's her name, Aliyanna Mira .. What a girly name. She's not a Ponytail Girl anymore.
