Tristan's POV
I forcefully pull Inah and she run with me to the garden area. This is the most safest place I've known for us to be not witness by anyone.
"Hey, how are you? What's your business here? Do you mind, let's have a coffee later?" I ask her gleefully. My emotions changed; from being serious to a lovely and happy tone of my voice.
"I need to go Tristan." She answered in just five words. Before she walk out, I grabbed her right hand and hugged her tightly. As I hugged her, she suddenly pushed me away.
"Tristan come on! Know your limitations! Can't you just move on?!"
"I-I'm sorry. I just really missed you so much." Tears running down through my face. No, I can't be move---that's what my heart says.
"I just have some business stuff in this school okay? Happy?" She said sarcastically and walk fastly.
I let her to be free in my arms...again. I calm myself first before going to my first class and wear my serious face mask. I hope no one can notice the sadness in my eyes and the tears dried here.

Bliss Joy's POV
Sabi ng teacher namin sa first subject, may kukunin daw na tatlong scholar each strand sa school namin. Mga hindi bababa ng 93 and average ng 1st and 2nd quarter ng 1st sem.
"Well, goodluck ABM students! See you tomorrow and goodbye."
"Goodbye and thank you Ms."
Kailangan kong maging scholar. Malaki laki ang nagastos ng pamilya ko sa akin. Kahit papaano man lang sana ay makatulong ako.
Well, not to be brag, I'm a consistent honor student since I started day care 'til high school. We have a small business; small resto. Muntik ng malugi dahil sa sunod- sunod na bayarin sa akin sa hospital. Dalawang taon ba naman akong nagpahinga at ngayon, imbis na sa college ay grade 12 pa lang ako.
Pumasok na si sir Tristan para sa next subject namin. Anong klaseng aura na naman kaya ang naisipan ni sir. Sabagay, palagi din naman siyang pogi. I-I mean, p-pare-pareho lang naman siya ng aura o itsura sa araw-araw. Wala namang pinagbago bukod sa mata niya. Parang 'di ganoon katamlay o kaya sungit. Aba, himala?!
Bago pa man magsimulang magturo si sir, may kumatok na teacher at nag-excuse dahil mayroon daw ia-announce.
"May I have your attention students. So, you already know about the scholarship offering by a big company here in our school. Ms.Inah is going to introduce you about their scholarship." Paliwanag ng teacher na mukhang ipinagtaka ng mukha ni Sir Tristan. Hindi naman sa nakatutok lang ang atensyon ko kay sir, naobserbahan ko lang naman ang reaksyon niya hehe.
Pumasok ang sinasabi niyang Ms.Inah at halata sa mukha nito ang pagkagulat ng makita si Sir Tristan. Hindi lang si Ms.Inah at Sir Tristan ang nagulat dahil maski ako! Siya 'yung babaeng nabangga ko kanina. Paktay! Goodbye scholarship...
Matapos ang mahabang paliwanag ni Ms.Inah, nalaman ko na isa pala siya sa mga investor ng isang malaking kompanya. Mukhang yayamanin. Mukha siyang anghel noong nagpapaliwanag siya sa harapan at mabuti na lamang ay hindi niya ako napansin. Noong 'di ko nga sinasadyang mabangga siya kanina, para niya akong lalamunin ng buhay. Haysttt, goodbye scholarship na ba 'to? Mukhang kailangan ko ring maging mapagmasid. Feel ko talaga may something kay Sir Tristan and Ms.Inah eh.
OMG! Mag-on kaya sila?!
