章 3: WALLFLOWER 3
Harris's POV
"Excuse me" I said as I entered the faculty room. I see Mr. Fernandez doing his task.
"Come in" he glanced at me. "Take a seat" sabi niya pa kaya naman umupo na ako. "Thank you sir."
"Is it because she's cute?" he suddenly asked. Ehh? What did he say? "Oh, that's it! a love at first sight isn't it?"
"Sorry sir but I don't understand" I said.
"Why do you get yourself involved with Ms Montes?"
"What are you saying? I just want to become friend with her." I said. Yun naman ang totoo.
"Friends, huh? But what does she think of it?"
"She said she can't... but still I won't give up! After all, if you don't do anything, nothing will ever begin, please excuse me Sir" I said at saka na tumayo.
"Hey wait!" he shouted. "I see, I shared the same feelings with you. I want to support you on this, but you see.." he pause. "Mr. Villareal, I think it would be better if I told you about this matter."
"What?"
"She's suffering from a sickness called, Dissociative Amnesia, I'm sure by the time of Monday comes, she would have already forgotten you"
"What are you talking about? That's a joke right?"
"Do you think I could joke about something about that? If you are thinking about what's best for her, just let her on her own" Mr. Fernandez stands up.
"Forcing yourself to interact with her will only bring her trouble, aren't there kinds of friends who protect the people who matter from afar?"

I'm speechless that I could not even reply to him. Totoo kaya? Totoo kaya na paglipas ng lunes ay makakalimutan niya ang lahat ng nakasalamuha o kaibigan niya sa nagdaang linggo? Maliban nalang sa mga taong malapit na sa kanya tulad ng family niya at kamag anak.
Today is Monday, ngayon ay mapapatunayan ko kung totoo nga ang sinasabi ni Mr. Fernandez about sa sakit ni Euwielie.
"Euwielie!" I shouted. Agad naman itong huminto at hinarap ako. Hindi ko maiwasang pawisan dahil sa kaba.
"What do you need?"
"Uh, nothing.." I said at saka umalis na siya. Her memories disappeared

"Did something happen?" Leon asked.
"I just thought that I really am useless"
"Ok what kind of a joke is that?" he said.
"Nah it's not a joke! Ugh never mind!"
Tumingin ako sa asul na langit, As I thought hindi niya nga ako nakilala, What should I do? Hindi ako pwedeng sumuko agad. I need to do something.
Mabilis na natapos ang klase kaya nagpasya akong simulan na ang naiisip kong paraan. Nagmadali na akong mag ayos ng gamit at saka tumayo na.
"Wait! Harrish~" Lea shouted. "Look at this! Look! It's all damaged and worn out" she said to me as she showed her notebook. "It's all your fault for using it for photocopy all the time!"
"Right! Right! I'm sorry about that...Wait up!" I said saka nagmadali ng tumakbo, bumalik ulit ako at saka hinila siya. Makakatulong din siya sa plano ko. "Come with me!"

"Hey, what notebook do you think would be nice?" I asked. Nandito kami ngayon sa isang school supplies store. "A notebook with a great style that suits either a girl or a boy who's using it"
"I feel bad that you're doing this for me, my favorite color is Pink and Red! " she said. Oh? What she's talking about. " My favorite animal is a cat, I guess"
"Cat?"
"Yup! I really love cat's in fact mayroon kaming limang cats and lahat sila may pangalan, yung isa si Scarlet, yung isa naman ay si Li—"
"I got it!" I shouted as I finally see the notebook I searching. "I'll go with this one" I smiled while holding a polka dots notebook.
"Huh? It's good" lea said.
"Well, you're right. It's not bad" I agreed.
Kaya hindi na ako nag aksaya pa ng panahon at pumunta na ako sa counter para bayaran ito, when a bunch o pen caught my eyes, yeah that's right kailangan ko din ng ballpen. I'll go with the blue and pink ball point pen with same style.
"How you considerate of you Harrish~" Lea said when I bought a notebook and pens, seriously? What she's talking about?
"thank you sa pagsama mo sakin Lea" I said at saka aktong aalis na.
"same here, thanks. Can I have it?" sabi niya at saka nag lahad ng kamay.
"Bye!" I said saka nagmadali ng tumakbo
"Harrish!" rinig ko pang sigaw ni Lea

Humihingal na umakyat ako sa rooftop, I know she's there. Tumingin ako sa paligid at bahagya akong napangiti. I knew it!
Dahan dahan akong naglakad papunta sa kanya. itinago ko ang notebook at ballpen na nakaipit dito sa likod ko.
"What do you want" she asked.
"Euwielie! Please become friends with me!" I said. Alam ko na ang sagot niya kaya inunahan ko na. "You can't, right? Would you like to exchange diaries with me? Since, it would be too much to do it every day, let's trade the diary after a week. How does that sounds?"
Hindi siya sumagot at nakatingin lang siya sakin, kaya iniwan ko nalang yung notebook sa tabi niya at tumalikod na.
Yes! I did it!
Euwielie's POV
After a class, I immediately packed my things. I walked way to my home as I remember the diary of a guy who gave it to me. I opened my bag and then scan a notebook, he has a taste in comes of design, I flipped a first page.
I startled you with this sudden diary exchange thing, right? But thanks for reading it. I'm Harris Lei Villareal, from the same class. Now that we're in the 12th year, we became classmate. Well.. uhh.. today is Monday.
"Euwie!"
I immediately hide the notebook as a heard someone called me. "Let's go?" my mother's said. Lagi niya akong sinusundo after class. "I wan't you to accompany me on grocery shopping as we're on the way to the hospital"
I just nodded and we started to walk. "Euwielie?" someone called me.
We faced her naglakad naman ito papunta samin. "It's been awhile Megumi, what's bring you here" my mother greeted her.
"I just came for volley ball practice Mrs. Montes"
"I see, you're still playing volley ball, then"
"Euwie...Are you doing well?" a girl asked me. Who is she? I can't remember that she is.
"S—Sorry Megumi but were in a hurry" my mother said at saka umalis na kami.

I'm about to sleep when I remember the notebook that Harris gave to me, I already know his name since it is written at the first page.
Umupo ako sa study table ko at saka kinuha ang notebook.
Today is Thursday; it was through this lesson, where Lea kept a journal that gave me an idea for the exchange diary.
Today is Friday; I'm about to gave Euwielie a notebook, My heart beats so fast, it's about to explode. I bought a notebook together with pen. Please use it!
By the way I'm a member of Otaku and Manga Club so no doubt in my words, speaking of Club, were you a member of a club back in your previous school?
I'm about to write a reply when I stopped. I don't have memories from my previous school so I don't know what to write.
Tumayo ako at saka binuksan ang isa sa mga drawer ko. kinuha ko mula doon ang isang box. Sa loob ng box ay ang mga bagay na ginamit ko way back to my previous school, but still I can't remember anything. I hold a photo album, I'm about to open it when my mother called me.
"Euwie, can I talk to you for a moment?"
I immediately fix my things when I decided to open the door. "Are you planning to have an exchange diary with someone" she asked.
"ahh.. n—no" I replied.
"Your father is feeling worried"
"It's fine nothing to worry about, I going to sleep now Mom" I said.
"That's good, Goodnight honey" she smiled then locked the door.
