C1 Reminiscing Memories

ATHENA

"Why did all that happen?" the questions that confuse myself.

I'm just tired. But I will continue to fight for the life you broke, "she said.

Those are the words that bring me back to the past. The ex -husband gave her a lot of pain, despite her kindness, she was still able to fool him. She almost forgot to love herself.

Now she is in Baguio and hiding, because she can't accept what his spouse did when they were together ..

Way back College days when my annoyed husband and I met, and I was praying that we would not have known each other, and that he would not have broken my heart over and over again.

"Why did you bump into me?" Athena asked, irritated when their skin touched each other.

"I didn't bump you." he said.

"W-how come you didn't bump me, you already saw I'm coming and you're blocking my way" I straight talked to him and suddenly I frowned.

"Ok! Miss, sorry. I didn't mean to bump you" he said.

"Fine!" I muttered, because it's really annoying.

It's natural for me to be irritated, because I'm a provincial girl and I grew up with conservative grandmothers.

I have a good life in Manila, I live in an apartment, nearby at school. I also study hard, so it's not surprising that I am always at the top of my class.

But when one of my students came, Bella was the transferee at our school. And I don't know why, she's been irritating and competing with me.

Then one day afternoon, I accidentally heard their conversation. What do I care about ? It's just disgusting,because she's a woman and it's not good to show motive to a man. That she will follow it to the gymnasium and the man is obviously choosy and doesn't like her. It looks like he doesn't type such women, either he will focus on his studies, because he will be running for a magna cumlaude this year ..

I cannot hear their conversations clearly since I'm hiding on the wall, so they cannot see me.

"What is it Bella, you look like a dog and are always following me" Akiro said irritably.

"You know I like you, why are you so mean" Bella said complacently that she will like the boy.

"Huh !? How many times I tell you that you're not my type, that's why" he said.

Bella started to cry when she heard about Akiro's confession.

Because she can't accept it, despite her pretty face, the man has no interest in it.

"You will be mine too, mark my word." promises it says to itself once turned away.

Thankfully, I can get out of my hiding place. Why do they have such a scene ..

The days passed quickly after school and vacation again. I'm so excited, because I'm going back to my place. I miss my grandmother too.

In the evening I was able to pack up my things, so that I can't cram to prepare it.

Athena was ready for her vacation.

As she boarded the van to Baguio, the girl was excited because they would also meet her grandmother.

Athena grew up with her grandmother so she is really conservative. In dress and especially in speech. She hasn't had a boyfriend yet, because her grandmother is too strict.

She was a widow and young when her grandfather died and her grandmother never remarried. For this, he will just keep the memory of his late spouse.

After 6 hours she arrived in Baguio. She walked to his grandmother's house and knocked first and in a few minutes the door had opened.

Her grandmother was surprised, because she did not even say that she was going to Baguio. Her grandmother was overjoyed and hugged her. She asked her granddaughter about the trip.

"How was your trip?" the grandmother asked.

"It's okay grandma" Athena replied.

"Come and join me." she says.

"All right grandma, I'm very hungry," she said and put the luggage at the side.

My grandmother and I had lunch together. She laughs happily. I have many new stories to tell.

When they finished eating, Athena said goodbye to her grandmother to rest for a while.

Meanwhile, in Manila, Akiro talked to his mommy via video call. Akiro's family was far away then. They have also long been citizens of other countries.

Akiro is the only one who insists on staying in Manila. He wanted to be free so he chose to stay here.

"Hello! Mommy, how are you?" asking Akiro to her mom.

"I'm a good son, how about you? When do you want to visit us here?" her mom said.

"Maybe soon mom. By the way, I have to go. I love you and I miss you" he said at the end of the video call.

Akiro said goodbye to his dear mother. Akiro was sad again. Whether he wants to follow the family case he is hesitant about what his life will be like there.

Vacation is just fast. Athena is back in Manila. The girl is in her second year of college. He will also graduate in almost 2 years.

On the other hand Akiro is a Fourth year college student this school year. He is about to finish.

He was one of the leaders in the class. Some say he is a teacher's pet. The man doesn't care about this.

Because he knows himself.

Akiro is a smart guy. He just graduated from elementary school as a valedictorian.

At school everyone is busy, because there will be a prom ball. Bella is excited,because she knows she is the one Akiro will choose to date. She was so depressed that he didn't choose her.

They are in the gymnasium and everyone can see the effort for me.

‘BE MY PROM DATE! PLEASE SAY YES ’

That is what is written on each cardboard held by another student.

She was shocked by what Akiro did. She really doesn't like the man, because of his attitudes. She also heard a lot of news about it. She does not want to be included in his collection.

Akiro approached her with a bunch of flowers and a human sized teddy bear that was even bigger than her. She wouldn't have accepted the offer, just in case she didn't want to embarrass the young man. Students screaming can be heard inside the gymnasium. The students were happy with what they saw.

Bella is the opposite. Herwrinkled face seemed unpaintable and her eyebrows were still raised.

She didn't want to see the scene, so she decided to leave.

Akiro was very happy because the girl finally accepted his offer. The prom ball is next week, but he seems to want to pull every day.

He has been stalking the girl for a long time. It's just suplada, because you thought it was a dragon. Her eyebrows are always raised when she is seen and vice versa. It was as if it were an angel coming down from heaven.

He couldn't understand why the girl was so annoyed with him. As far as he knows he doesn't remember anything wrong with it.

He has been calling the girl for a long time. But his charisma doesn't even match here. Many like him, but the girl is the only one who doesn't like him.

She's so popular at school, but she doesn't even seem to exist in the girl's life. It is very beautiful especially when it is smiling and its two deep dimples on the face are still at the same time.
