Chapter 4: Invitation Card

Vanessa's Point Of View

When I woke up, I was immediately exposed to a blue figure. As far as I know I did not go home yesterday and-

Incapable-

I immediately went out inside the tent and the whole view of La Esleda was exposed to me, only now did I feel this feeling. The feeling that when you wake up you will see the place where you were born and the feeling of pouring fresh air.

From where I was standing I immediately struck a scene, but I could not see it very well because I was at the bottom of the mountain.

I ran up the mountain and a few seconds later I hit a place where the sunrise could be seen, so I immediately went there.

When I arrived at that place I was blown away by the fresh air, the sweetness of feeling alone and you could feel the pouring of fresh air.

"Is it amazing?" I just noticed that Oliver was next to me.

"It's a place, and what is the name of our place, why is it beautiful?" I asked him.

"We are on a mountain that the people of La Esleda call the Mountain of Peace because of its scenery and its surroundings." I agreed with what he said.

"It's nice that we seem to be in Sagada, right?"

"Tsss. Do you want to go there?"

"Where?"

"Sagada." My eyes immediately widened because of what he said.

"I wish we had no more classes-" I was immediately taken aback by what I said.

Speaking of class.

"W-wait what time is it?"

"It's only 6 am so don't worry." I smiled because of what he said.

"All right, I'm going home to take a bath and get dressed." After that I turned my back on him. "

"Wait." I turned to him when he stopped me again. "Take this." And he presented a card.

"What is this?" I will ask.

"Invitation card."

"Invitation card?" I asked him back.

"Your invited for my 20th birthday." Wohhh will he be twenty?

"Ah ok, I'll go ahead."

Then I turned my back on him again but he called me again.

"Ahm sorry if I make you mad, but I just want to invite your friend."

F-friend? Did he mean Lia?

"Do you mean Lia?" He just nodded.

I took the card he presented for Lia and now I have turned my back on him, for the third time. But now he did not stop me but I myself turned to him.

"You and Lia have known each other for a long time?" I am happy for him because he already has a girlfriend and I do not even know if he already has a friend.

I saw how he blushed, why is that?

"A-ah Y-yeah."

"Is that so, I'll tell him about you-"

"N-no!" He immediately interrupted what I was saying.

"W-why?"

"Its just- go." I was immediately taken aback by what he said, is he sending me away?

"All right, at least I have a lot of questions so go ahead bye!" He smiled at me and waved.

-----

After taking a bath I immediately went to LEU (La Esleda University)

When I got there I went to the library just in case I saw Lia. But when I arrived there was no one so I sat down first and read fiction stories.

-

As I was reading suddenly someone was standing in front of me, I looked at who it was and I was right.

"Oh Lia I've been waiting for you for a while."

"I'm sorry I just arrived." She said while sitting in the chair.

"He's going to give you something-" I stopped speaking as I remembered what she had said earlier.

"Is that so I'll tell him about you."

"N-no!"

"My C-class mate will give you something."

"What is this?" She asked as she reached for it.

"That invitation card, your invited."

"H-ha, eh when I was older I had no friends here except you."

"That's also my question, he said just give it to you. Don't worry, I was also invited."

"I-is that so."

---------

"Ok class lets continue this tomorrow." When our teacher said that, our whole class immediately stood up.

I did nothing but sit here, because I did not think to do anything. I sat for most of the afternoon.

Recesss, lunch time until I was told that I was still sitting. I got up and went out of the room.

"Vanessa did you give it to here?" I turned to the speaker and Oliver turned out.

"Ah yes, she is also wondering why she was given that."

"Ok."

"IM OK too."

"L-lets go?" I was immediately taken aback by what he said.

"What do you mean?" I will ask.

"You'r my girlfriend so you should stay always from my side."

"You're so sweet." I felt my cheeks turn red so I immediately turned my back on him.

"Tss. That's one of the boyfriend commandments."

"Is that so I should also keep the commandments as a girlfriend?" I asked him.

"Nevermind." My forehead immediately wrinkled because of what he said. I suddenly felt heavier.

"W-why?"

"Because I might be thrilled." My eyes immediately widened because of what he said.

"Don't you want to be thrilled?" I asked with a mixed smile.

"Hmmm." When he said no, he nodded.

--------

"Hi manang." I greet manang when I enter the house.

"Oh maam your already here-"

"Manang, I have no appetite for your joke, so sorry." And I went up to my room.

We will go at 8 o'clock because that's what Oliver said earlier, I looked at the wall clock in my room and it was only 6 o'clock so I had better go to sleep first but no matter how tight I was I still did not give myself so I called  Lia.

Lia's P.O.V.

I stopped eating when my cellphone rang.

"Answer it." Mama said so I stood up and answered the call.

"Hello."

["Lia did you fix that?"] She said when she was on the other line and I'm sure it was Vanessa.

"I-it's not even 6 o'clock yet, are you?"

["Not yet."]

"Ah, is that all you have to say?"

["A-ah sorry if I disturbed you ah, sorry really go ahead bye."]

"J-just wait-" I interrupted what she was about to say when he suddenly ended the call.

"Who's that?" Dad asked.

"Vanessa, my friend."

"Ok, what's her last name?"

"Stewart."

"S-stewart?" I was shocked by papa's attitude as if he had just heard that last name.

"Why?"

"Ah nothing go ahead eat that."

Weird.
