Suitor

A few days have passed since that happened. Chadd become more strict than before. He accompanied me and picks me up like a child. We also talked about it, I also told him what I should say those days.

I want to mention to him about the man who helped me but for some reason someone inside me is preventing me from asking him. If it weren't for that guy maybe Chadd wouldn't have caught up with us. I will definitely wake up somewhere else not in the hospital.

Chadd was so angry that he almost killed the man, my mom told me about that. I would also like to meet that person because there are so many questions in my mind but Chadd does not want me to do that.

It was the last day of school today. I am in the library to review. There are still two hours left before the last exam. We only have two subjects a day, each subject has 4 hours if you are done and then you have time you can leave the room to eat or go somewhere and then just return before the next exam.

My exam schedule is in the morning. Chadd and I are almost the same. I just 30 mins ahead of him. I was planning to go to Sam today because I have nothing to do later but until now she has not answered my text or calls.

I also planned that day that I would go to her with ice cream but it didn't work out. Is she upset with me? Was she angry because I did not go? I just gasped at what I was thinking. She still doesn't really reply to my texts and does not answer my calls. Maybe it would be better if I just went to her and I would buy a lot of ice cream.

I put away my belongings and stood up. I don't want to be late. I can review there, maybe all of them is over with the exam so I can hang out there. While walking I could not help but be distracted because most of their eyes were on me. There are those who murmur while looking at me while others just smile, there are some women who look at me badly while others seem to be thrilled.

I stopped in the middle, the others were surprised by what I did, maybe they didn't expect me to make a big deal about there reactions. I turned around. I saw the sudden turn of the man behind me scratching his head as the students around us laughed.

"Booooo" others shouted while laughing. I looked at the man head to toe. He holding a flower, I think because of the petals on the floor where he was standing. I lookee again at him, he is not Chadd. I turned my back on him and walked away to my room, I even heard them boo again.

When I arrived at the room, they were all quiet because most of them were reviewing and the others were sleeping. I slowly entered and went to my seat.

I stopped and my heartbeat quickened. I turned to my row and asked.

"Excuse me?" I asked while smiling, they both looked at me and smiled as well.

"Yes?"

"Did you notice who put it and left it here?" I asked them while pointing at the paper bag.

"There was a woman who was looking for you earlier. We told her that you isn't here so she just left in there" one of them answered me while the other nodded.

"Did she mentioned who it came from?"

At the same time, they shook their heads "She just said that its for you" replied the woman who nodded earlier while the other one nodded.

"Thank you" I smiled at them. They also smiled at me before returning to what they were doing.

I took the paper bag so I could sit down. When I sat down, I took my cellphone and hesitated to text Chadd. He has an exam, he might suddenly leave it to go here. I sighed, I looked at the time before I just put my phone in the bag. There is an hour and a half left.

There are two emerging theories in my mind. First we got the wrong person. Second the one who give this to me and the one who stalking me is a different person. Did it just happen to be at the same time so I thought it was just one person? I still haven't read the envelopes that were placed in my locker that day. If it's a different person, who send this?

I opened the paper bag and looked inside. Just the same as before. I took the paper on top and opened it.

'Its already the last day of exam. You haven't eaten at all. Don't worry I'm not that guy you thinking. If you want a proof or you want to know me you can call me at the number written below. Take care of yourself. Don't force yourself too much I'm not there yet to take care of you

09 *********'

I took my phone from my bag and wrote his number on my dial. I was hesitant to call or not but I pressed accidentally the call botton.

"I'm sorry" my classmate told me who bumped at me.

"Its fine. Dont worry about it" I smiled at him and looked back at my cellphone. I almost jumped in shock when I saw that he already answered the call.

"Hey" said the one on the other line. I could not move when I heard his voice.

"Where are you?" I don't know but that's what came out of my mouth.

"Find me" playful but his voice is soft.

For some inexplicable reason I stood up and walked. My foot carried me to the rooftop. This is the rooftop where Chadd punched and where I met Kevin.

I slowly opened the door. I was not surprised when our eyes met. I just held the door knob while looking into his eyes and said "Kevin"

He smiled and lowered his phone, he also pressed something there. I heard my phone beep so I think he pressed the end call. I put my cellphone down.

I just walked closer to him "You find me" he said to me while smiling when I approached, I don't know why I find him this easily my foot just run here.

I looked at his hand. I was not surprised to see a wound there. He must have noticed that I was looking there so he touched my chin to increase my gaze and to meet our eyes again. I also saw the flowers behind him where he was seating earlier.

"Is that you?" I asked him "Are you the one who helped me?" When I blinked at the same time, tears flowed that I did not expect.

He smiled at me before he wiped both my cheeks. "Don't think about it"

"You did not answer my question" I removed his hand from my cheek and moved away a little.

He sighed and looked me in the eye "I told you, dont think about it"

"Tell me"

"Why?"

"I want to know"

"Why?"

"I want to know why did you do that" he was surprised by what I said. I also don't know why I'm like this. Instead of thanking him, I seemed to be asking him why he helped me.

"Its because I love you" the wrinkle disappeared from my forehead and I stared at him in disbelief. I noticed that there were tears in the corners of his eyes and his smile looks like he is hurt.

I just stared at him because I did not know what to say. The words that wanted to come out of my mouth were gone and all the questions I wanted to ask disappeared.
