Our status X The new transferred student.

***JENNIFER’S POINT OF VIEW***

I get this feeling out of myself? I hate it.” I whispered to myself as I went out of the comfort room. Is this the feeling of “in heat”?

“What feeling? Are you not feeling well? Are you nauseous?” Jerry asked me consecutively.

“Oh! You froggy!!!” sorry about my expressions, but I’m really like this. I was really surprised as he came out of nowhere.

But what’s more surprising was he embraced me tightly.

“Jenny, you really have me worried back there. Be careful, please? I almost fly just to get here. To make sure you are okay.” he said while hugging me.

I felt guilty because a while ago, I was kissing Jexter.

Until now I was really confused. I let go of his embrace.

“Jerry, I really don’t know what am I to you? Our situation.” I am really puzzled.

“How come you don’t know? Back then when my brother saw us. Didn’t I answer him that you are MY GIRLFRIEND?” he said with a frown.

“But we didn’t go through courting right? How did I become YOUR GIRLFRIEND?” I was really confused.

“Jenny, I thought you have feelings for me, that you also like me because I like you.” He said.

I was shocked by what he said, that he also likes me, but why do I feel different?

Why don’t I feel the same? Like that feeling of having a butterfly in my stomach before the Bedroom incident? Is it because of Jexter? But impossible, I just met him.

But why did I let him kiss me? Why did I answer his kisses?

I’m really wary. I can’t answer him a single word.

He sighed.

“Maybe you are really tired, or traumatized about that accident,” he said.

“And maybe I was wrong, I decided for us that we are in a relationship. I am really wrong because I didn’t even court you, I have taken advantage of you. I was really carried away by the situation while we were in my bedroom.” He said again.

“Jerry, I’m sorry I am really confused right now,” I said that and left him.

I did not bother to look back, he also didn’t chase after me, he just let me leave and go home.

*THE NEXT DAY- RECESS*

“Hey guys, have you seen the newly transferred student?” said the girl with really thick fake eyebrows.

“Which one? This Mr. Rosales?” said the other girl with a super short skirt.

“Yes, OMG he is so handsome. He could be a candidate for MR. POGI (A.N: a tv show in the Philippines where handsome talented guys compete) He’s the prince I’ve been waiting for. (●∀)” the thick fake eyebrow girl said.

Oh, I really have a sharp hearing. Even if they are two tables away from me, I could still hear them

“OMG HERE HE COOOOMMMEEESS!!!” they screamed as if they saw a famous actor.

I want peace while I am eating my lunch so I put my headphones on and turn on the music on my phone.

*BLAAAAAAG*

Someone just slammed the tray with foods on my table.

I frowned as I looked at the person who did that.

***JERRY’S POINT OF VIEW***

Maybe I was wrong, I’m so stupid. Why didn’t I admit my feelings to her, why did I prioritize my ego?

I’m so wrong, I should have courted her in the 1st place before I acted like I was her boyfriend.

“Tomorrow, I will court her,” I told myself.

I went outside to buy a cake and a bouquet with 3 pieces of rose. 3 flowers mean “I LOVE YOU” right?

***The next day, during lunch break***

I peeked at her classroom, looking for her.

Where is she?

This is so embarrassing. It’s the first time in my life that I’ve to bring cake and roses to someone and I’ve been here since our breaktime started, but when I got here, I couldn’t find her.

I poked at the lady who just went out of the classroom, “M-miss, you are Jennifer’s classmate right?” I asked he.

“Which Jennifer? We have 3 Jennifer here in our class,” she responds.

“Jennifer -”

“Miranda? Zuniega? Valdez? Which one?” she asked me rapidly.

“Jennifer Zuniega, where is she?” I asked back.

“Hmm, I’m not quite sure but try to look for her at the canteen, she’s always spending her lunch break there,” she said with a smile on her face as she looked at me then looked down at the cake and roses that I’m carrying.

“Thank you very much,” I smiled then run in the direction of the canteen.

“You’re welcome, good luck on your courting” she waved gracefully.

“OMG, HERE HE COOOOMMMEEESS!!!” I heard as I come closer to the canteen.

There are so many people inside but I can see her wearing huge headphones while she’s eating.

But a familiar face is approaching her, the guy who rescued her.

*BLAAAAAAG*

She wore a frown as she looked at him,

“YOU?!!”

The guy just smiled.

***JENNIFER’S POINT OF VIEW***

“YOU?!!”

He just smiled at me.

"Hello my SOON-to-be Wife." Jexter said with gladness on his face.

“What?”

“Wife?”

“Are they dating?”

“Soon-to-be Wife?”

My ears are burning as I heard what they said even though they were whispering.

I dropped my spoon and fork and grab Jexter out of the canteen.

Did I just saw Jerry? Or is it my imagination?

Well, it doesn’t matter now, what matters is that Jexter did put me in a bizarre situation.

I grabbed him to a place where it is not very crowded.

“What the heck did you just said there?” I asked him with a frown on my face.

I haven’t moved on to my confusion about what happened between me and Jerry yesterday. And now here comes Jexter self-proclaiming that I am his SOON-TO-BE-WIFE!!!

“Soon-to-be Wife. ღゝ◡╹)ノ” he said with a proud smile.

“Are you out of your mind? We are here in school then you just said it like that, do you really want me to be expelled?”

“Endearment and call signs were very famous in this generation, even a 13 years old couple call themselves husband and wife,” he said with a different level of confidence.

Argh! The nerve of this guy! I wanna pinch his ears right now!

“And didn’t I told you that once you’ve turned 18, I’ll marry you.” He said smugly.

“Oh, you’re really going to destroy my peaceful life-”

“No, you will not have a peaceful life, your life will be filled with joy because I’m with you. ღゝ◡╹)ノ” he winked at me then smile with a very huge smile.

“Arggh!” I’m starting to lose my patience and I wanna punch him right now.

“I’m sorry I didn’t do that to make you angry. I’m sorry about what I’ve just said,” he said and beginning to change his mood from the very proud Jexter to the “lost puppy-look” Jexter.

Aw, he looked so sad. “Sorry also, I was very shocked by what you said there.” here comes my conscience.

“Uhm, I just wanna give you this.” he grabs the pocket on his polo shirt and a familiar smell just went into my nostrils.

My favorite smell, a Sampaguita flower necklace.

“How did you know that this flower is my favorite?” I asked him.

“Who in this world wouldn’t like the smell of a Sampaguita flower?” he smiled. ╰(´⌣`)╯

I felt at ease with him, I feel like I’ve known him for a long time.

We spend the whole lunch break talking until we have to go back to our classroom because the lunch break is over.
