Chapter 2 - Chapter 2: Did I just smile?

8 pm...

I'm at my room reviewing for our exam tomorrow when suddenly I heard my phone. There's some messages that popped up on my phone that's why I checked it.

Hi...

"Oh! It's just some random person, I thought it's Nevada," I said. Since I already seen his message, I replied.

"It wouldn't be bad if I reply to him right?" I asked to my plushie "cinnamon".

Hello...

After I replied to his message he began to message me again and we talked for some time that I forgot to continue what I'm reviewing.

The day of exam...

"Hey Nevs, are you ready to take the exam?" Claire asked.

"Are you really asking me that question? Of course.... No...My gosh I feel like I'll be taking a remediation test after this," she exclaimed.

"I wish I was like you Maye. Kind, talented, academic achiever, gosh how to be like you," Nevada said.

"You don't have to be like me, Nevs. You just have to be yourself. If you really want to achieve something, you really need to worked hard for it. So next time you should take time to study early for our exam rather than study the day before, okay?" I explained.

"Gosh that's why there's so many boys who like you. Everyone wants you," Claire said.

"But they're not willing to pursue me hahaaha."

They all went silent... It feels like they're the one who felt that pain between those words that I just said earlier.

"Let's just stop talking about this topic and pray that we'll all pass this exam." Me changing the topic after what I have just said and they all agreed.

After the class, we all went out to hangout at a cafeteria near our school.

"Hey! Since we'll be having a midyear break why don't we guys go to Intramuros? Sounds fun right?" Kayelyn asked.

"Yeah! That sounds good, Kayelyn. We can also passed by at an art gallery near there. Mayumi will be happy by that, right?" Claire said.

While they're talking, I didn't noticed they're talking to me because I'm too focused with my phone since I'm talking with someone.

"MAYUMI!!!" Nevada shouted that every costumers at the cafeteria stared and even glare at us.

"Oh sorry!!! What is it again?" I asked.

"We're asking if it's good for you that at midyear break if you want to go to Intramuros and later on we'll passed by an art gallery," Kayelyn explained.

"Oh yeah! I'm good with that," I agreed.

"Okay, since all of us agreed already we'll just set a time so we'll all know it. By the way, who are you talking with Maye? Before you don't really like when all of us are on the phone when we're hanging out. But now you're the one holding the phone. Who's that person you're talking with?" Claire asked.

"Waitttt, IS THAT YOUR BOYFRIEND?" Nevada exclaimed.

"Gosh Nevada! Can you just react normal? You're always overreacting... People might think you're getting crazy right now," Kayelyn said.

"Hehe sorry, go on Maye. Explain it to us who is that person you're talking to."

"It's just some random person I talked to a while ago. He's just a friend by the way," I shortly explained.

"Really? Is he really your friend?" Claire asked once again.

"Yes, of course... Guys, I will not lie to you. He's more of like an older brother to me," I once again explained.

"Okay. If that's what you said, we'll trust you Maye. Just be careful on trusting people, okay?"

"Yeah! Don't worry guys. I will be careful, I promise."

After some chitchats we all went home. I change on my comfy clothes then lay down in my bed.

Are you at home already?

When I saw you messaged me, a smile drew on my face. I got shocked to the point I jolted on my bed and went on my mirror. (Why did I just smile? ). That's all I'm thinking while looking at my reflection.

Are you busy? We can talk later if you want to...

Then I realized I haven't replied to him. Oh shit...

No... I'm not busy... I'm also at home already...
