[POV: - MOON]
Before taking my soup bowl I gathered a lot of courage to tell Yeran about the proposal, even before having my seat and placing the bowl on the table but as I picked up my chopsticks and looked at Yeran to say. Automatically, all the courage flew away in the air. F**k!
No way. I have to say otherwise every day I have to deal with both of them.
"Um. I was saying that I'm in a relationship with a girl."
PFFT! She knocked over her whole mouthful of rice on my ashamed face. She was coughing and coughing until Lu Yong ran to her and gave her a glass full of water. Wait, from which corner of the world does he appear?
Whatever, he managed to handle Yeran's condition which was brought up by me, actually. The way she looked at me helped me to let out the ashamed expression on my face. Well, her expression was funny. Haha.
"Excuse me, Moon Fowler! What do you mean by you're in a relationship with a girl? From when you started to change your sexuality, huh?"
"Did I ever think of changing my sexuality for a girl or what? It just happened, by chance of course."
"By chance, huh? Ishh, whatever it was, leave it. Well, who is that girl?"
"Cherry."
And the situation arose again. Her mouthful of rice again was on my face. Disgusting. I scrubbed it all from my face and looked at her with my wrinkled angry face. I was wholly embarrassed and ashamed of taking her name but yet I have to do it. Her coughing this time went out of limits.
So we hardly handled her condition. Maybe she never expected 2 little heart attacks from me. Nor did I ever think I'm gonna say yes to her, not even in my dreams. It just happened all by chance, it's what I named finally.
It's a story where love exists but the correct person never gets to know each other in the end. Not everything we decide to keep will always be ours. Sometimes it's all a game of time where some stays and some leaves. It's natural to fall in love regardless of age, sex, and religion.
"Mo-Moon, are you really that Moon who often hates Cherry? Are you that Moon who has never been in any love? Are you that Moon who often kept herself far from falling for anyone? Are you really that old Moon? Ha?"
"Yeran, don't worry, she just told me to pretend when Kylan tries to approach her. I'm not gonna fall for her at any cost."
"Such a relief. Well, who is this Kylan?"
"Her ex-boyfriend. He cheated on her back then but now he again came back for her. Cherry doesn't wanna fall for him again and get broken again."
"That's why we should never judge a happy couple by their appearance."
__ [After a week] __
[POV: - TANGWEN]
It's been a week since I saw the Moon. She just disappeared after that day. No matter how many times I see the moon in the sky I never get the feeling of my Moon when I see her closely.
Sometimes I just wonder why she so easily accepted to pretend as my fake girlfriend. Wait, does even she have any feelings for me? Or just she wanna help me out? Whatever the reason was I was so blessed to have a person like her behind me. Protects me, touches me, teases me and may not loves me now but soon one day.
I will be waiting for that day, Moon. I'm in so love with you.
"Cherry! There's someone new joiner in our school! C'mon! Let's see!"
Is someone new? Sounds interesting though. As I was already so excited I followed my friend. My footsteps stopped as I saw a student dressed as a tomboy. She was wearing a full-sleeved hoodie with a trap-pant and matching shoes of the colour black and white. Surprisingly, everything she was wearing belonged to the big brand 'Ceronedolie' I was so amazed as it was a big brand and a luxurious one too.
The main one is owned by my Elder Bro, Dillon Alfie.
She was so mysterious when I looked up at her hairstyle. It was cut short down where at least it can reach her collar bone, a waved and aesthetic haircut. It even looks so soft and natural. Two combined silver chains around her soft, long neck. A black crystalline watch on her left hand. And especially her aesthetic face was covered by a black mask. Looks like this girl is so awesome and fashionable. Why did I ever see her here before?
I was just staring at her like she was the only one who was visible to me.
"Cherry, did you see her? She's the one about whom I was talking!"
The new joiner… Is such a fashionable, mysterious, attractive, aesthetic and more over a model to hold as a 'Love at first sight' type. The way she walked and flipped her hair overwhelmed me. Even there was no way in keeping her skin aside, it was as bright as the sun–shiny enough to blind anyone's eyes.
"Who is she…? Such an attractive aura."
"You don't know she's our well-known basketball player, Moon Fowler."
Moon Fowler, Moon Fowler, Moon Fowler. This name was encircled in my mind like a bell in the temple. As if I lose myself in her presence again. I had never dreamed of this Moon Fowler in my imagination. The moon which I see in the sky is far more worst than my Moon today is… My love towards her got more stronger than before. You're just sick, Moon!
"Cherry. Ey, Cherry. Why are you blushing, huh?"
"A-ah. No way! Why would I blush without any reason, Tai?"
I know Tai won't believe it with that escaping eyes. Her narrowed eyes later turned normal when I flashed up like a torch. At least now you stop doubting me, Tai! Well, Tai Wantanren is my Best friend, not one I had more than 2 but at present they are stalking the guys, practising swimming.
"I know by seeing whom you're blushing, Cherry."
When you already know then why the hell you questioned me before? Tsk!
Never mind, she's the way like this from the beginning and the way my friends supported me to achieve my love is what I often admire in them. But sometimes… It's just as hard as a rod to keep a hold of the things which we think are only ours when they belong to a lot of people already.
