ARIANNA'S POV
ONE week ago, when I went to my doctor.
And it's been a week since Xander became my friend.
Today is the day of Thursday, and I want to go to the mall later after class.
I want to get rid of stress first before going home.
Because I no longer have time for myself.
I have nothing else to do after class. And I know how to be happy going there.
I will call my friends, and because I'm busy with my thought of what I will do later...
I didn't realize that Xander was on my side already.
And we just finished our second subject in the afternoon, so I could do nothing and that is why I'm here in the garden.
Does this i***t have no class? That's why he is here? (I'm referring to Xander)
HOW ARE YOU ARYANNA? We haven't seen each other for a long time?
What he said brought me back to my trance. I was distracted by his behavior, and I was just amazed at the width of his smile and fascinated by his handsomeness.
I just smiled back at him, because I think my tongue is already numb.
I made a fake cough to get his attention.
And I succeeded, his gaze turns in me.
I'm fine, you? How are you too? I answered him.
I'm fine also, actually,y I got here because I want to take you out for dinner? Are you free tonight? He asks.
I was so speechless, I never thought he ask me for this. Are you for real? I murmured.
I have nothing to say, my chest" is the lack of its beating.
What is this feeling? Is my pain coming back? Or am I just thrilled by the simple gesture of him.
I didn't know I was floating on my thought.
Hey!!! Are you with me? And he growled in frustration.
And only then did not answer.
Hmm," I plan to go to the mall after class. I also plan to call my friends, for I have someone with me.
I explain to him.
Oh!! I see, well tomorrow then.
Ok, I'm free tomorrow we can have dinner then...
And then he smiled at me,
here we go again, his smile that leads every girl to drop their panties again.
I shooked my head to erase my thought, I might get green-minded already.
Hey!!! By the way, Won't you mind if I ask you if you have a boyfriend? Do not despise what I ask. He asks me,
And I answered him that fast.
" Nope ", I haven't a boyfriend yet.
And he just nodded in response.
I just shrugged.
I stared at his face carefully, there's something in him that makes my heart beat fast. But I can't determine what that is.
I did not realize that I have been staring at his face. That's why he caught me in the act.
What I did was embarrassing,...
I just bowed out of shame. And as a cue, He laughed at my actions, and stared at him coldly, cold as eyes.
Oh!! Geezzz!!! The situation is so awkward.
I get nervous when Xander is around me. I am restless, I do not know what to do. The strength of my heartbeat, especially when he stares at me.
I couldn't stand it anymore, and I spoke.
Ahmmm" Xander,
Why did you choose to be my friend? What I mean is, why did you approach me? There are many other women here. When I start talking.
Because, the first time I saw you, I felt something strange about you.
But, I just can't figure out what is it.
( It was Xander)
That's why I want to be friends with you.
Because I want to know why I felt this way.
And I also notice that you are always alone.
I feel like I see going through something.
Tell me Aryanna, do you have a problem? I will listen to you here.
When he noticed that I looked sad, so he spoke immediately.
What I mean is, I don't want to interfere with your life. But" I'm just worried about you. (He said in the long narrative)
I tried to show him that I was ok.
I just smiled at him, 'cause his eyebrows were almost close.
I took a deep breath before answering his question.
I know you are worried about me, but" I'm okay now, don't worry.
I just can't say my problems to you.
I do not yet have the strength to tell others, especially, since I only knew you. I explain to him.
It was as if an angel had passed between us, because of the silence.
And Xander broke the silence.
Okay," I understand you.
And as a cue"
I suddenly remember that I was going somewhere.
Sorry if I leave you first now.
I forgot that I still have a walk today.
Even if I want to talk to you, I can't.
Because I am still going to the mall, and I will take my friends.
So!! I've gotta go now.
Thank you again for your time with me Mr. OLIVEROS, BYE!!!!
(When I say my goodbye)
" OKAY ", THEN.......
That's the only thing I heard him say.
And I would have turned around to walk when he spoke again.
Wait!!! Just a moment aryanna.
And I immediately face him.
What is it, Xander? I ask.
Can I have your number? He pleads with me.
Yahhh!! Sure!! Here's my number,76*********.
Ok" Thank you Aryanna, Take care. ( It was Xander)
"Ok", I will. (it was me)
And I kept walking away from him...
And I don't know, I reach the entrance gate already.
And I saw Mr. Damian is waiting for me already.
Mr. Damian is my driver. And he opens the backdoor for me.
I immediately get inside the car.
While I was in the car, I took my phone in my bag and dial the # of my friends,
It took a second before Monica answer her phone call.
Hello," Monica are you free now?
I ask her,
Yes!! I'm free, why? ( it was Monica )
I want you to come with me, I'm on my way to the mall. Is it okay with you? ( me)
Yeah!! Sure, I'm going now, wait for me then.
And she ends up the call.
And I also call Tiffany, the same collaboration as I was saying to Monica, and also to tiffany.
And I already have to reach the mall entrance.
