Third Person POV

*FLASHBACKS*

"Good morning grade one!"

The teacher greeted, at eto ang second week ng school. Maraming adjustments ang naganap, at new students din ang nag transfer, kaya naman dito sa Section A ng Grade 1, halatang marami ang mga makukulit, at malalaman niyo ang mga pangalan ng mga nasa section dito mamaya.

Anyway, may mga ibang bata parin na hanggang ngayon ay umiiyak parin at ayaw magpa-iwan sa nanay.

Tulad ng dalawang ito.

"Okay then, say present if I call your name, I'll be listing the attendance—" The teacher announced, but was cut off when she saw two kids crying at para bang nagwawala sa pintuan.

"Mama! Ayaw ko pumasok!" Iyak ng isang bata habang nagpapahila sa pinto, at grade one din ito.

"Oh! Good morning, Chifuyu Matsuno!" The teacher greeted nang humarap siya sa bata na halos hindi mabitawan ang kamay ng nanay niya.

"Mamaaaa!" Iyak naman ng isang bata na kumakapit din sa nanay.

"Takemichi Batumbakal Hanagaki! Pumasok ka na o yari ka sakin mamaya sige!" Galit ng nanay neto.

"Emmaaa...!" One student named Hinata Tachibana called as her eyes are locked on that one student.

"Batet?" Humarap si Emma sakaniya habang kumakain ng candy.

"Tegnan mo o! Ang cute nung Batumbakal!" Hampas ni Hina kay Emma, "Crush lang naman eh... bawal ba."

"Aray!" Nahulog naman ang kendi ni Emma sa bibig niya dahil sa lakas ng hampas ni Hina, at napaiyak naman ang bata.

"WAAAAAHHH!" Iyak ni Emma na halos humagulgol, sakit dawn ang pagka hampas parang nawala kaluluwa.

"Halah! Sorrey naaa!" Takip ni Hina sa bibig ni Emma na may kasamang embrace para daw hindi makita ng teacher.

"Mama!" Iyak parin nina Chifuyu at Takemichi sa pintuan habang nakakapit sa mga nanay nila na ayaw magpababa.

"Ingay..." Baji mumbled sa gilid ng classroom habang nagsusulat ng notes.

And of course, kung may makulit naman, may sobrang pasaway, let's say mga hundred times ganun.

Habang sa harap naman ng classroom, nakatayo si Hanma Shuji for almost ten minutes as a punishment from the teachers kasi may sinuntok sa hallway kaninang umaga lang, grabeng grade one 'to.

"Nyenyenyenye!" Sa gilid naman ng classroom, habang may umiiyak sa pintuan, may napagalitan sa harap... may nangaasar naman, at ito si Mikey.

"Nyenyenyenye Doraken kalbo bleh!" Asar ni Mikey na may kasamang dila.

Aba kung isip bata siya sa current grade niya, paano pa kaya noong grade one?

"ARRGHH!" Napasigaw nalang si Draken sa bag niya habang tinatakpan ang tenga dahil masisira na ang eardrums neto sa kaibigan niyang tarantado.

"Okay, sorry for the commotion class. I'll be now listing the attendance, say present if I call your name." Teacher Marie said, at dito na rin maiintroduce ang mga students noong grade one sila.

"Okaaay teacheeer!" Sigaw naman ng mga bata na inexaggerate pa nila ang mga vowels, at umupo na rin sa mga upuan nila.

"Cardo Dalisay!"

"Present!" At oo, kaklase nila ito nung grade one.

"Sanzu Haruchiyo!"

"Wake up..." Rindou mumbled as he nudged Sanzu who was sleeping, may laway pa na tumutulo sa bibig.

"H-huh? Eh? Absent?" Bulong ni Sanzu nang bigla siyang nagising, and his eyes averted everywhere, na lutang na.

"Present!" Sigaw ni Rindou nang siya nalang ang nagsabi para kay Sanzu.

"Oten Bonten!" .... O ayan na... last name reveal ni Oten.

"Present!"

"Wakasa Imaushi!"

"Present."

"Izana Kurokawa!"

"Present."

"Nahoya Kawata!"

"Present!"

"Yuzuha Shiba!"

"Present!"

The roll call continued, at dalawang estudyante nalang ang natitira sa listahan ng attendance...

"(L/N) (Y/N)!"

"Present!" Sigaw nito habang nagsusulat ng notes ng tahimik, sobrang bait at inosente. Eto pa yung mga days na hindi siya nainfluence kina Emma. Of course, she's the smartest student in class until...

"Mitsuya Takashi!"

"Present." Mitsuya said, trying to keep his voice low while just sitting back at his chair quietly. He's smart— no not just smart, the smartest in class. He's always well-behaved at ito rin yung mga days kung saan hindi pa naiinfluence nina Sanzu.

Of course, as the quarter started... the students, even the teacher realized the trope between the student (L/N) (Y/N).

Who knew? Two top notcher students from separate school nagsama sa isang school— no— section even?

Well, going back at the students. May mga hindi rin sila naging kaklase, tulad ni Ran, Senju, Kazutora, Angry, Pahchin, Koko, Kakucho, at iba pa.

"Hello (Y/N)!" Hina smiled as she reached her hand out, "Can we be friends?"

"Okay, Hina, right?" You smiled.

"My name is Emma!" Biglang sabi ni Emma, the one with the blonde hair.

"You know... we were really shy to be um- friends with you on the first day..." The two mumbled.

"Bakit?" You blinked.

"Nag tatagalog ka pala?! Nag practice pa kami ni Emma para kausapin ka!"

"Oh, I'm just used to talking in English, sorry, haha." You giggled, ay wow, ibang iba yung grade one (Y/N) sa current grade (Y/N) ah.

After some hours, the class ended soon, "Okay grade one! Dismissed! Thank you, class!" The teacher said as she went out of the classroom, letting the guardians and fetchers walk inside the room.

"Saan si mama." Iyak ni Chifuyu habang naka upo sa upuan, sa sobrang liit noong grade one halos nakasabit yung mga paa sa upuan.

"Ang tagal ni mama..." Takemichi cried as he sniffed... may tumutulo pa na sipon.

"Yuckieee! Yan yung gusto mo, Hina?" Emma cringed.

"Psst, boi." Tapik ni Baji kay Chifuyu.

"Pangalan mo? Akala ko ba naman astig ka, tanginang buhok pa naman yan, mala gangster," Sabi ni Baji, "May pa ikot ikot pa."

"Ayaw mo yun mala mafia boss! Rock en roll! RAWRAWRARWRAWR!" Sigaw ni Hanma, parang hindi pinatayo sa sulok ng classroom kanina ah.

"Chifuyu pangalan ko..." Sagot neto.

"Suntukan agad, tara Chefoyo." Sabi ni Baji nang hinila si Chifuyu.

"Hoy Edward putanginamo!" Sigaw ni Bogart kay Baji sa labas ng classroom, oo pati noong grade one, magkaaway rin sila.

Meanwhile, you're still sitting on your chair and writing some notes habang naghihintay ng sundo mo, but hindi mo mapigilan na madistract sa isang kaklase mo, hindi mo rin alam kung bakit?

"Hello," You called him, and maybe try to befriend him.

Mitsuya only turned his head to you while he's also waiting para sa sundo niya,

"Hello, um—" You blinked habang na mental block ka, "Ano nga ba ulit sasabihin ko?!"

"Why am I so nervous..." You thought.

"Why?" Mitsuya simply muttered, oo, pati noong grade one cold din.

"U-um well— Wanna be friends?" You reached your hand out.

Mitsuya only looked at you then at your hands, contemplating for a minute before finally shaking hands with you, "K."

"Ay, uh well hello! Nice to meet you! I'm (L/N) (Y/N)!" You introduced, "How about you?"

"Mitsuya."

"Nice to meet you, Mitsuya!" You said.

He only nodded.

"U-uh, marunong ka ba magsalita?" Agad mong tanong, "Okay ka lang ba? Masakit ngipin mo?" You added.

"Well anyway, Mitsuya, do you think I will reach top one again?" You asked, "Because... eh you know, ako nalang palagi yung top 2... top 2 sa scores... top 2 sa rankings... top 2 sa bulletin boards.... Basta always behind you! I'm impressed by you! You're always the number one!"

"Maybe." He replied.

"Ah, ok haha..." Napakamot ka nalang sa ulo.

"Anyway, can I see your notes?" You asked as you looked at him.

"K." He whispered as he gave his notebooks.

"Nagfofold ka rin pala ng papers!" You said as you see how organized his notes were.

"Mitsuya!" But then, you saw a girl walk to him.

"Yuzuha Shiba, nice to meet you!" She held her hand out to him.

"Mitsuya! Your mother is here!" The teacher said.

"I'll go now, bye." He said as he stood up and went outside the classroom.

"Luh, ayaw yata makipag kaibigan sa akin..." You mumbled, and umalis na rin si Yuzuha.

"Oh— Teka! Mitsuya, naiwan mo notebook mo!" You suddenly noticed at humabol pa sa labas ng classroom, pero nakaalis na ito agad.

"Teacher—" Yeah, wala rin siya, and you didn't want to leave the notebook here sa classroom, you know cleaners would go here.

"Okay," You huffed, "So iuuwi ko ito?"

Kinabukasan, another day at school, agad ka na pumunta kay Mitsuya para ibalik ang notebook niya.

"Mitsuya, you left your notebook at the classroom," You said as you gave it to him.

"K, thanks." He muttered and kept the notebook.

"Ay, haha, gege." Pilit mong tawa.

"(Y/N)!" You heard Hina and Emma's voice as they entered the classroom, they are bus riders kasi kaya't palaging sabay.

"Hello! Good morning!" You smiled as you walked to them.

"May crush daw si Emma!" Expose agad ni Hina.

"Okay you exposed me! Si Hina meron! Si Takemichi Batumbakal!" At ayun na nga, muntik na mag bardagulan, tago niyo na mga kutsilyo.

Kaya alam niyo na kung bakit sa current grade, si Senju lang yung ano— yung ano basta alam niyo na.

"Ikaw ba, you have a crush, (Y/N)?" They asked.

"Wala." Ngiti mo, I mean... tama naman, diba?

"Hindi naman halata na crush mo si Mit—"

"Shhh!" You immediately covered their mouths.

"Odiba."

"Well anyway... wala akong gagawin after school, late pa naman ako susunduin! Ayoko maiwan mag isa sa classroom!" Nginig mo.

"Bawal kami magpaiwan ehh, sasabay pa kami sa bus!" The two said.

"Hmm," You suddenly thought of something, "Sige, I know someone who can help me go to the library.

At siyempre, you are with Mitsuya in the library.

"Wow! This is a really nice sculpture! Don't you think, Mitsuya?" You stare in awe as you look at the small statues in the library. May isang section din sa library kung saan may mga sculptures din, let's say it's like a mini-museum, not only books inside the tall shelves.

"What is this? The colors are really pretty, it looks like some kind of tusk... animal... color... looking... kind of thingy..." You muttered as you observed them like arts in museums, those bizarre and unusual things you see in the history books.

"It's called Ivory." Mitsuya suddenly spoke.

"Oh? Well then, starting today, my favorite color will be Ivory." You smiled as you faced him.

"Really, right away?" He told, "Why?"

"Because I find Ivory interesting and that's the first thing that I heard from you where you actually spoke to me in a full sentence." You replied.

"I see." 

"I want to learn more about Ivory." You tilted your head, still admiring the detailed sculptures.

"It's interesting, I know."

"Nahahawa ka na tuloy sa akin! Ayan! Dapat pag mag sasalita ka hindi iisang word lang!" Tawa mo.

"Akala ko tuloy nung una ayaw mo sa akin eh." You added.

"Ah sige na, aalis na ako, I think my mommy is here na, bye!" You said as you went out of the library, leaving Mitsuya standing there, and he just looked behind him as he stared at the "Ivory" sculptures, designs, and terms. They were intriguing, especially since it's you who introduced them.

Ever since that day, Mitsuya started researching more about the word "Ivory".

Another day at school, and some few weeks has passed. Ganyan parin naman kayo ni Mitsuya, medjo humahaba na rin yung mga words niya, parang feeling mo proud nanay ka tuloy na tinuturuan anak mo.

"Hello, Mitsuya! Good morning!" You greeted him as he went inside the classroom.

"Hi," He greeted.

"Walang good morning?" You bantered.

"Morning." He added nonchalantly and then faced the board.

"I want to go back to the library again tomorrow," You said, "I want to see the Ivories."

"I have a question." Bigla mong tanong sakaniya.

"What?"

"Are you going to stay or transfer next quarter or school year?" You asked Mitsuya.

"No, I'll stay here. Why?" He asked.

Your smile then slowly faded.

"Oh... Okay, see you later," You said as you went back to your seat, "I'll say something to you later."

After dismissal time, agad ka na tumakbo sa hallway para hanapin si Mitsuya.

"Mitsuya!" Buti na lang nahabol mo pa si Mitsuya sa hallway bago pa siya makauwi at humingal ka nang saglit sa kakatakbo.

Napalingon si Mitsuya, and he saw you, or known as his academic rival.

"Oh," Mitsuya suddenly remembered, "Didn't you say that you're going to say something—?"

"I'm going to transfer soon!" You bitterly admitted.

Mitsuya paused for a second, and felt his chest get heavy from her words, "Huh, why?"

"Sabi ni mama eh!" Reply mo agad.

"But— can I tell you something before I transfer out of this school?" You said, and nakikita mo sina Emma at Hina na tumatago sa mga halaman sa gilid, nagt-thumbs up pa sila sayo, and one of them mouthed "GO"

"What is it?" Mitsuya asked.

"I have a crush on you!" Sigaw mo nang walang hiya hiya, deretso na.

"Mitsuya icrushback mo—!" Sigaw ni Emma nang lumabas sa bushes, pero agad itong hinila ni Hina at tinakpan ang bibig.

"Huh?" Mitsuya raised his brows at your confession, after all, wala naman siyang kaalam alam sa mga love love crush eme na yan, especially at this age.

Mitsuya honestly don't know how to respond, but at the same time, he felt overwhelmed.

"Wala lang, gusto ko mag confess bago ako mag transfer." You blurted out as you walked to him.

Mitsuya felt sad at the part where you said that you will "transfer".

"Okay..." Mitsuya felt sad for a moment, as the quiet kid in class, he doesn't really feel things like this, even he doesn't know why.

"Bakit ka malungkot crush?!" You gasped dramatically.

"Why are you so brave saying that?" Mitsuya scratched his head.

"Kasi matapang ako! Tignan mo nga tumakas ako sa guard ng school kanina."

"Huh?"

"Wala! Anyway, may promise ako sayo." Tawag ni (Y/N) nang kinuha ang kamay ni Mitsuya and you intertwined his pinky finger to yours, para bang pinky promise.

"I promise to you! When I go back to this school, and my favorite color is still Ivory, it means my crush is still you!" You smiled, and Mitsuya's eyes locked with yours.

"I hope you're still my academic rival when I go back to this school!" You added.

"Sige, aalis na ako!" You then waved your hand as a goodbye. Mitsuya looked at you for the last time in the hallway, and all he saw was your figure which is slowly fading as you went out of the school gate.

Kinabukasan, pumasok na ang mga estudyante. As usual, Mitsuya is sitting at the corner quietly, but the only thing is, para bang may hinahanap ito.

(Y/N)'s seat is empty.

"Good morning class!" Teacher Anne greeted.

"I'll be informing you class that your classmate (L/N) (Y/N) transferred out of school early for this quarter."

Gasps and reactions were heard from Section A, but one student, especially Mitsuya felt his heart drop, pati siya hindi niya rin alam na this quarter niya agad. He just sighed, thinking that why would it affect him? Thinking, it's just a mere puppy love that has no development...

But then Mitsuya remembered what you just said, and he still had his hopes up.

"I promise to you! When I go back to this school, and my favorite color is still Ivory, it means my crush is still you!" (Y/N) said to Mitsuya before she'll transfer.

*END OF FLASHBACKS*

"He told us that he really misses ate (Y/N)!" 

Muntik na mahulog ang mga mata mo dahil sa gulat. Miss?! Talaga?! "Sus! Yung kuya niyo kung ano ano sinasabi!"

"Sige na ate! Don't be mad at kuya Takashi naaa!" They pouted nang nagpa cute sayo, at onti nalang mapipisil mo na yung cheeks nila.

"Ate, aminin mo na rin kasi that your favorite color is still Ivory!" Bigla nalang na sabi ni Luna, and your heart dropped from the familiar feeling.

Para bang may naalala ka.

You furrowed your brows as you thought deeply, but you clicked back to reality as you heard footsteps come near you and the two girls, you look up and saw Mitsuya.

"O ano," Bulong mo nang umiiwas tumingin sakaniya, "Ano ba noh! Mataas pride ko, bagong buhay." Isip mo.

"O anong tinatayo tayo mo jan?" Taas mo ng kilay kay Mitsuya sa harap ng pintuan niyo, but your eyes darted to his hand kung saan may dala dala siya, and your eyes widened.

Mitsuya is bringing some milk tea, boxes of pizza, fast foods, at iba pa na pagkain.

"SHET PIGILAN MO (Y/N)!" Isip mo na halos mabaliw na.

"Takashi mautak kang puta ka ha," Bulong mo, "Sige, bati ko sina Luna at Mana, pero bahala si kuya Takashi niyo."

"Yay!" Sabi naman ng dalawang mag kapatid, at kinampihan ka naman agad nila at iniwan ang kuya nila.

"Really... Luna and Mana..." Mitsuya just sighed.

"Sige na nga, pumasok ka na dito," You rolled your eyes.

Mitsuya entered the house while bringing the food, at sinara mo na ang pintuan, ngunit hindi mo napansin that Mitsuya secretly smiled as he chuckled softly both at your cuteness at sa karupokan mo.

After that, you all sat sa dining table, you weren't surprised how your parents aren't still awake. Luna and Mana sat beside you, habang sinadya mo naman na lumayo kay Mitsuya, so he's sitting at the farthest seat.

"(Y/N)," Mitsuya called your attention.

You just furrowed your brows as you avoided his look. You just continued eating and playing with the two girls.

"I'm sorry, okay? I'll make it up to you. What do you want?" Mitsuya asked, but you just ignored him.

"It looks like you're enjoying the foods anyway." He added.

"Yung pagkain gusto ko, hindi ikaw," Irap mo.

"Ouch," Mitsuya joked as he poked his tongue inside his cheeks and shook his head, "At least you're enjoying the food that I brought though, I'm satisfied with that."

"Teka ano 'to? Gagi bigla akong nahiya—" You thought as you gulped, ayan na, dumadating na kahihiyan.

Again, nadagdagan ang lakas ng loob ni Mitsuya, at nadagdagan ang kahihiyaan ni (Y/N).

The tables have turned... pero matino na po ngayon promise, wala nang tumambling.

But then, biglaan nalang nag ring ang notif ni Mitsuya sa phone, and he opened his phone to check.

Sanzu, Rindou, Kakucho, and Koko went offline.

Ran was active 6 hours ago.

"O tignan mo," You whispered na para bang nagpaparinig, "May ibang kachat agad, char, ang kapal."

"I'm messaging Sanzu and the others." Mitsuya responded as he kept his phone back inside his pocket.

"Ah, 'k." You mumbled as you fixed your attention back to the two girls na naglalaro.

"Gusto mo pakita ko pa sayo?" He said, "You don't believe me?"

"Proof." Biro mo, but in a cold tone ganern.

"So, I'll say our GC's fucking name?" Mitsuya thought.

"Online Selling Shaboo name ng GC namin, okay na?" He said, and you held back your laugh.

"Kung ano ano na talaga pinagsasabi ko dahil sayo." Mitsuya whispered, "Lakas mo talaga sakin, fuck."

"Talaga, buti alam mo." You rolled your eyes.

"Buti nalang talaga mahal kita." Bulong niya, pero narinig mo yun.

Naubo pa si (Y/N) sa gulat at muntik na mabulunan si kinakain, "Papatayin yata ako ng kuya niyo." Bulong mo.

"Ate (Y/N)? Are you okay?" Tanong nina Luna habang naglalaro ng mga barbie dolls, buti nalang hindi mo pa tinapon yung mga luma mo na mga laruan at napahiram mo pa sakanila.

"Kuya Takashi! Play barbie dolls with us!" The two girls suddenly said.

"HAHAHAHAH!" Tawa mo, "Paano na yan, nawawala na astig points mo," You whistled na mapang asar.

Mitsuya only sighed as the two girls gave him the dolls, and he weirdly looked at the dolls in a what-will-i-do-with-this face.

"If I play these dolls, then (Y/N) will forgive me in exchange." Mitsuya raised his brow.

"Sabi na nga ba, mautak nanaman!" You thought.

"Bahala ka." You said.

"Kunwari si kuya Takashi yung daddy si doll house, tapos si ate (Y/N) yung mommy!" Sabi nina Luna at Mana nang hinarap nila sainyo ang mga laruan.

"HUH?!" Your eyes widened, "LUH?"

"May sampung anak na kayo ate." Sabi ni Mana.

Naubo ka naman na halos lumabas kaluluwa mo.

"Sige na ate! Kuya!"

"A-ano ba gagawin ko dito?" You said nervously, aba malay mo ba sa mga roleplay barbie dollhouse na yan.

"Sabihin mo I love you honey Mitsuya!" Sabi nila habang inabot ang dolls sainyo, na kunwari daw na mommy at daddy.

"TANG— ANO?!" You gasped.

You turned to see Mitsuya, who was just leaning back in his chair, his hands in his pockets, observing the three of you, but then he noticed you staring at him, so he raised his brow at you.

Ano 'to, kinikilig at the same time kinakabahan.

"Fine... sasabihin ko." You huffed as your hands nervously reaches for the "mommy" barbie doll.

Tinayo mo ito sa dollhouse at ginalaw ang kamay at ulo na kunware raw nagsasalita. Odiba, nagmumukhang tanga si (Y/N), pero anything daw for Luna and Mana.

"I-I... lo—" You stuttered, and you can feel Mitsuya's gaze from beside you, "I lov— y—"

"TANGINA!" You cursed in your head. "TEKA WAIT HINDI KO KAYA CPR CPR RARWARWR!" You thought.

"I love you honey Mitsuya!" You straightforwardly said while moving the doll.

"YAYYYY!" Cheer naman nina Luna.

"I love you too, hon." You heard Mitsuya reply with a teasing chuckle.

"Huy gago!" Halos mala jumpscare yun at muntik mo na mabali yung ulo ng barbie doll.

"PAANO NA YAN?! Rupok na ulit, ganun nalang ba" Isip mo.

"Akala mo makukuha mo ako sa ganyan? Ulol asa ka." Agad mong sabi kay Mitsuya.

"Where's my role? I thought I'll be the 'daddy' here in the dollhouse?" Mitsuya said as he fixed his posture on the chair and grabbed some of the male dolls.

"Mukha mo 'daddy'." Sabi mo, "Bahala ka parin, apologies not accepted."

"Hm? Okay then. I'm going to explain something, and if I made everything clear, you won't be mad at me anymore, you got it?" Mitsuya said.

"Hey, look at me," He said as he leaned closer to you, "How will you accept my apology if you won't listen?"

"O-oo na pota." Sabi mo nang humarap sakaniya, and he's wearing an intimidating stare as his narrowed eyes are locked on you.

"Ano ba! Tanginang titig yan!" Isip mo, pero agad kang tumigil as you cleared your throat.

"K, fine." You coldly reply.

"I saw your keychain on the hallway," Mitsuya said as he took out something from his pockets, and your eyes widened from the familiar object.

"So, I assumed you saw and heard something back then, right?" He asked, while you just slowly nodded.

"Ms. Sheila from another department asked three of us. Yuzuha, that one student from section C, and I were chosen to do this certain project which I don't get why I need to comply because our adviser said so," Mitsuya explained, "Is it clear now, (Y/N)?"

You didn't reply, just simply shrugging and looking everywhere but him, and kinakausap mo pa sina Luna kunware hindi mo na naririnig si Mitsuya, at sabay inom ng tubig.

"I said is everything clear now, babe?" Mitsuya strictly repeated.

Muntik na mabuga ni (Y/N) yung tubig na iniinom niya.

"HA?!" And there, humarap ka na rin sakaniya.

"Oh, clear naman pala eh." Mitsuya smirked as he leaned back at the seat, "So stubborn, babe."

"Tangina! Fine," Sabi mo, okay, hahayaan mo na kainin ka na ng karupokan mo— este kabaitan daw, "Apologies accepted, Mitsuya."

"Thank you." Mitsuya softly smiled.

"Huwag mo nga akong ngitian ng ganyan enebe." Isip mo nang pinipigilan ngiti mo.

"O ano na niyan—?" Dagdag mo.

"I'll fix and wash the dishes," Mitsuya offered as he started cleaning the food on the desk, but you stood up from your seat.

"Tutulong na ako," You said as you started cleaning as well, but then some thoughts starts to linger in your head.

"After all this time, may label ba kami?"

"Bakit nagsosorry si Mitsuya na parang may kami? Is it because of these mixed signals?"

"Is this some another move of his mixed signals?"

"Sinasadya niya ba ito?"

And because of those unending questions that are bothering your mind, you suddenly call Mitsuya as if on impulse, "Mitsuya, may I ask something?"

"What is it?" He said while helping you fix the dishes.

"Why are you doing all of this?"

Your question made Mitsuya stop what he was doing, and he looked at you. You were about to speak again until he turned to you.

"You really want to know, hm?" He said as he walked closer to you, and you were about to protest until you saw him getting closer to you. Leaning forward to level a look at you as he spoke then patted your head.

"I'm planning to court you."
