Rival's Appearance
Today is monday and I'm still in my bed lying, I'm still recovering from that accident. My body is still aching so bad. D*mn!
And for Haile, she's also absent for school because as what she said. . . she'll going to take care of me. Well, it's her responsibility! I saved her and she should repay me-just kidding!
We also decided that we will make it as secret and confidential. So that, we will not make any rucus and gossips about what really happened. Plus we don't want to scare the students of STFU university.
We also agreed with the teachers and the principal to make it as a secret. They also hightend the security to ensure everyone's safety.
Well at least we can breathe now, right?
Ah whatever, all I know is that many things are complicated.
I put my phone aside and look at the window. It's still seven in the morning and the sun is still young. I just want to go out for walk but I'm still scared that there are people might do something on me. I'll might end up getting killed.
"D*mn, it's so boring in here." I said while looking at my ceiling.
I suddenly remembered what Haile said. As far as I remember it's 'I still love you, yeah maybe? Tsk, whatever!
I'm not really sure if I was correct. I passed out and when I wake up, I forget everything. Tsk! Whatever you said Haile!
You're giving me a headache.
I sigh and get up form my bed. I'm still new to this feeling that I don't have something to do, I'll just go downstairs instead.
"Haile?" I called that ugly brutal witch.
"Haile!" But there's no Haile. Where the h*ll on earth she is?
"Hey, you ugly witc-"
"What did you say?!" I was startled when she showed up in the end of the staircase. Sh*t, I'm dead!
She smiled at me dangerously. I fake smiled at her and laugh nervously. " Ah hehe nothing,"
She showed me her fist and I immediately cover my face. This girl hates to be called witch but look now, she's acting like one.
Tsk!
I was about to pass her to call grandma and grandpa when I lost my balance. Oh sh*t!
MOVE AWAY!
*Blag*
"Ouch!"
"Sh*t!"
I hold my head and tightly close my eyes as I feel the pain. D*ng it! We bang our heads! Why I'm so clumsy?
I hurriedly get up and help her but she just shove my hand away.
"You know what Carl, I want to be angry with you. But, I just remembered that you're so clumsy since birth, I understand. But. . . " She paused and hold her head, enduring the pain she's feeling.
"YOU SH*THEAD! CAN'T YOU SEE THAT I ALREADY HAVE AN AIRPORT IN MY HEAD AND YOU JUST BANG MY MY FOREHEAD WITH YOURS-" I cover my ears and move away from her. D*ng! She's like a riffle! Non-stop!
"Haile? Carl? What happened here?" We both turn to grandma when she go out form her room. Haile immediately help her while she's still holding her forehead.
PRTTF!
'Yeah right! Haile's forehead is like an airport!'
Have you ever seen a flowerhorn fish? Yeah, that's what I meant.
"What are you laughing at huh?!" She hissed at me while giving me death glares.
"Nothing HAHAHA! It's just that you're partly true, your forehead is-"
"Shut up! You clumsy id*ot!"
"Hey, enough! You might end up fighting," said by grandma. She make face while I'm still holding my laughter.
"Carl if you didn't stop, I'll gonna surely kill you." I silence my self and fake cough, avoiding her gaze.
Grandma just sigh while looking at us. "What really happened, Haile?" She ask us worriedly. "Why you both end up banging each others head?"
Haile just roll her yes and exaggeratedly cross her arms.
"Well grandma, this favorite grandson of yours is too clumsy. He outbalance himself and end up falling with me!" She said. Slightly brows knitted together.
But, wait! It's not my entire fault why I fall!
"Hey, I didn't mean it okay?" I defended myself and explain everything.
-
For those three days that I'm absent form school, my bruises and wound finally heal. Finally! Thanked God! My feet wasn't injured so I can finally walk around the house. Well yeah, just inside the house only. Poor me.
Haile didn't even let me to go outside just for walk. That witch!
She's really a witch after all.
"And where do you think you're going?" Speaking of witch, there she is.
"Just at the back of our house. . . " I said and pass her. I was just whistling while going there . But, I immediately go back when I remember something.
"Uhm, what boss said?" I ask. She just shrugged. What?
We are three days absent and I'm sure that boss is very angry right now. Well boss really hate people who always been absent from work.
She look at me and said. "He said get well soon, that's it."
Eh, he's not angry? He's sure of that? Wow, he's so kind huh!
"Okay, that's new. . . " I said and walk towards the back of the house.
The day ends and I decided to go inside to help Haile preparing our dinner. When I enter the kitchen she's currently chopping the ingredients for adobo.
Yes, my favorite!
"Uhm, I'll gonna help you. . ." I said and come near her. I saw how she teared up.
Awwe, poor baby!
"Prttf, lemme do that!" I said and grab the knife in her hand. Poor Haile!
"Tsk!"
I saw how she manage to wipe her tears even though she's struggling. "Hey, come here." And I grab her hand to the faucet to wash it and wipe her tears with my handkerchief.
I notice that she went silent. That's new huh!
But wait? She's blushing. . . What happened to her? Is she sick?!
"Hey? Are you okay?" Then I touch her forehead, but she's normal though.
"Ah, yeah. I'm fine!" She said and run to her room. What is her problem?
After I finish cooking, I prepare the table and called them.
"Grandma, grandpa! The food is ready!" But, I didn't receive answers from them. I sigh.
"Haile-shit!"
I almost had an heart attack. D*mn, that was so close! The h*ll!
"You're so stupid, you know?" She said and roll her eyes. Stupid?
Common, I'm not stupid!
I step to the left but she also step to the left. We look at each other and sigh.
But, when we step to right in sinc she lost her temper. I'm dead!
I smile nervously."You f*cking id*ot!" And we end up running around the house.
After she hit my head and almost died, I go upstairs. But, she called me again. What the h*ll!
I look at her harshly."What?!"
She come near me and shows her middle finger. Wtf?
I thought she'll gonna hit me again. I look like a geeko in here.
Well to describe my position here in the staircase. I was holding the floor behind me while wide eyes . Ha-ha so funny!
F*ck you to-hehe! You look like hippopotamus Haile!

Santo Tomas Frior University
(STFU UNIVERSITY)
For almost week of resting, now I can say that I'm perfectly fine now. We will going school today and I'm happy at the same time worried.
We head first to the dean's office which Ashley's aunt. "Good morning, Dean!" We greet in unison.
She gesture us to sit so we sat. She discuss something on Haile that I didn't understand before she throw her glance on me and smile.
"How are you feeling, Carl? Are you alright? Ashley told me that-"
"I hate to be rude but we're going now dean. We're already late." Haile interrupt and look at dean seriously. Dean sigh and nod.
7: 30 am
When we reach the room, all of the eyes are on me. There are others who wants to ask me but, looking beside this amazona beside me, they look hesitant to ask. Haile's aura intimidated all of them.
Acey was about to approach but she was stopped by her friend. Well yeah, I assume that girl is her friend. They seems close.
*Bell rings*
The class started so I just focus myself listening to our professor. I want to ask Haile but she's to serious.
Yes, I admit that I am scared. So I don't want to died early, not now. I'll just shut my mouth.
Until our class ended and it's our break. We headed to the school canteen and order.
My thoughts are flooding and I can't focus. Well, I was worred about Haile though.
"One spaghetti and ice tea please," I said and handed the money. After the cashier give the change I find a place to sit and eat peacefully.
"Carl I have a zest-o!" I was shocked seeing them two handing me a zest-o. I look at them in confusion. How did they-oh!
It's. . . grape. Too bad.
I didn't mind them and continue to eat my snack. Haile look at me and tapped my shoulder."Hmm?" I ask her while my brows rising.
"You don't want to accept it? I'll just take it instead, okay?" Then she grab the zest-o from thier hand.
"Sorry girls, Carl don't like grapes. He prefers apple." Then she put it in her bag.
"Let's go Carl," I nod and get my bag. Leaving them stunned and stoned.
-
While we're walking, I suddenly remember those happenings last week. Just like about what Haile said that I did really don't understand.
I still wonder if what's that all about? Tsk, I didn't really understand her these days. She seems weird.
But sometimes, I can't just stop thinking about her actions. Just like she instantly change her mood form being a witch to angel mode.
I sigh.
Then, she instantly blush that I didn't know why. Godd*mn! I think my cousin is crazy. She's so weird and arggh!
I look up and sigh again.
*Blag*
Ouch, moth*rf*cker!
"Watch your step stup*d id*ot!" Said by a nuthead. He's so arrogant!
"Tsk, a clumsy idiot!"
"What did you say?" I ask him. Who the h*ll is he huh? He's so arrogant.
He stopped and face me." Stay away from her or you'll going to die."
W-what?! Who's her is he referring to?
"What?" He step forward and look at me deadly. Geez!
" Are you dumb or something? Look, stay away from Ashley and were good. Understood?" He rose his brows. Stupid moth*rf*cker! Who he h*ll is this and he acts like he owns her. As far as I remember, Ashley didn't have a boyfriend. Tsk!
"Dude. . . " Then, I tap his shoulder. "We're not dating or something, do you understand?" I put my hand in my pocket and look at him seriously.
"We're friends and it's natural if we'll get along. And, who are you huh?" I pause pause and look at him from head to toe.
I was already ready to receive a punch when Haile appears. "Touch him and I'll gonna burn all of you alive. "

Haile's P.O.V
I was looking at Carl while I was about to go to him. He looks f*cking fine with his hands on his pocket and looking above. But, he's really clumsy because he didn't know that will happened next.
I head towards them and put my hands on the pocket of my hoodie. I saw on my two eyes that there now talking.
Tch, as expected. That Clark will gonna transfer here.
Damn, who's next? That moth*rf*cker who's obsessed with me?
H*ll no!
"And who do you think you are huh?" Said by Carl. I massage the bridge of my nose and pursed my lips together. Getting my composure back because of his stupidness.
Clark was about to punch him when I spoke. "Touch him and I'll gonna burn all of you alive."
I said coldly.
He stiff in few seconds then turns to me. He's stoned in his place like he can't believe that I'm here in front of him and breathing. Oh common id*ot!
"Leave." I said. But, he didn't bulge. Godd*mnit!
"You're finding Ashley, right? She's in the Dean's office so leave." I stare at him seriously. He was taken a back when I mention Ashley.
D*mn! He's that head over heals of her huh?!
So cringey! Eww!
I didn't wait for his reply and drag Carl with me. Carl was silent and trying to calculate my actions if I'm mad or not.
Well, Carl didn't know me that much. . .so he's trying to observe my actions. For how many years, it's just now we get along.
I let out a sigh.
"Carl, don't talk to him again okay?" I didn't look at him. I was staring at the road clueless.
Later on, he hold my hand and I almost lost my breath.
My heart almost leave my body when our body collide.
I didn't know if how many cuss I said. Just damn! I am that pre-occupied and I didn't notice the car?
The car owner stopped and throw me a death glares. He even cuss me. You're just lucky, you fool.
"Are you okay,Haile?" He's staring at me with concern and emotion on his face. I really hate that look! D*mn! That look makes me weak and miss him even more!
It's been a while.
"I'm fine," I replied with a small smile, looking at him intently. He look at me relief with relief and sigh. He look at the road again, letting me to see his perfect side view.
My heart thud abnormally.
It been years but why I still love him? Just looking at him now, it feels old times.
Those times that we've been together in rooftop wayback when we are kids.
I smile sadly.
I hope that you will understand why I'm doing this, Carl. And hopefully, you'll gonna know that I love you. . .for a long time.
