Chapter 8 - Chapter 8: Gilbert

Junior prom is coming soon. It will happen a few weeks before the end of the semester. The junior students must promote the event. They need to raise donations and sponsorships to finance the venue and the activities. They also need to sell tickets for the most popular boy and girl of the junior batch. They will be going around the campus, in every room of and present their candidates and persuade the students to buy the tickets.

One day, they visit our class and introduce all the candidates. I noticed one guy among the candidates who looks very familiar to me. I just could not remember when and how he is familiar to me. Each candidate introduces themselves and when I heard his name was

Gilbert I was able to recall who he was. I met him in the event during Valentines' day. He is the guy I accidentally spill my drinks on his shirt and insists to buy me a drink. He is looking at me when he introduces himself. The girls in the class are romantically excited when he was talking while some of my classmates are trying to find out who was he looking at. They were not able to find out who it was except Sherwin because when I turned my head around, Sherwin was looking at me. He can tell this junior prom guy candidate is looking at me.

When everybody is done introducing themselves, our class adviser happily tells everyone that the representatives for the most popular junior king and queen contest has some goodies for the class. They go around the classroom except for Gilbert. He just walks straight to me and grabs my hand and gives me all his goodies to me. He said, "It's nice to see you again, feel free to share the goodies to your friends." I am speechless and all I can say is "Thank you." My classmates are all staring at me especially the girls. However, Sherwin looks away and pretending to be writing something.
