Hello, I am Jack Rodriguez and I’m going to share to everyone our Love Story.
How we've met...
I was in 4th year high school in St. Joseph School here in Naga City, Philippines. It was a Saturday morning. We have no classes so I played basketball with my friends. After playing, we were so tired so we decided to go to Greenwich for snacks. While we are waiting for the Pizza, I lay my head on the table to rest. I was facing the glass walls unconsciously. I closed my eyes for a moment, relaxing my body. It was such a wonderful feeling when I opened my eyes, I saw this oh so beautiful girl through the glass walls of Greenwich. I was so tired but I can’t help turn my head. She has the most perfect face I could ever imagine. I can’t even describe how she looks like because I’ll be redundant in saying perfect. Now she entered Greenwich too. How lucky can I get? I’m not a shy type of person and I can try to ask for a girl’s number without fear of getting rejected, but this time, I can’t manage to move. I’m so afraid to be rejected by her. I want to meet her but I’m afraid she might not want me. All I can do is stare at her while she’s ordering and watch her walk away through the Greenwich’s door. Now that she’s outside, I’m still lucky because I can still see her through the glass walls of Greenwich. The sad part is that I missed my precious chance to meet her. I might not meet her again.
I continued living my life. Though I admire her beauty so much I cannot say that I already fall in love with her. Personality is the most important thing a guy should consider in finding a girl. You can be the goddess of beauty but if you don’t treat people right, you’re just furniture. At this point, I don’t have any idea on what kind of person she is.
It was one afternoon on a school day when I jammed with a classmate and her 1st year friend outside our corridor. The name of his friend is Michael Yuboko. I called him Yuboko because I think it’s a cool and unique name. Close name for a Dragon Ball figure. We were jamming outside the room when a girl with a guitar walked toward him. When I look at the girl’s face, it was the Perfect girl I saw at Greenwich. I was like ……………… All the time she was there. I didn’t even know how long she stayed or what have she said. When she left I was back in my normal self. I was shocked realizing that she was just a 1st year student. She was a tall girl so I thought she’s a 2nd-3rd year one. Now it seemed more impossible for us to meet. But then, I asked Yuboko, “Ahmm, what’s the name of that girl?” then, he answered: ”Lili-ann”.. he paused for a while and then grinned so big looking at me with scandalous eyes and said “You like her, don’t you?!” repeatedly while poking me. @____@ Ok, I said: “She has a perfect face but it’s not a good idea to “like” her. She’s just a 1st year student.” Yuboko offered the girl’s cell phone number. I don’t know why but I accepted her number. Yuboko asked for my number too for me to give to her.
Next day… It was our dismissal for lunch break. I was walking with my friends near our corridor on our way out when suddenly a hand grabbed my hand. It was Yuboko pulling me. I was like “What the?” but I just let him pull me. I have no idea why he’s pulling me. When.. (oh my…) We stopped and Lili-ann was in front of me. I was so shocked. I don’t know what Yuboko said to Lili-ann but I guess it was like introducing me to her. I was so shy that I managed to escape from Yuboko’s super tight grip on my wrist and i…… ran! I ran so fast like there was a dinosaur chasing me. When I was on my way home, I was like… “Did I just run from a girl?!?!?”. I never did that in my entire life. I’m always in control but I have to admit. I ran because I was not confident enough to meet her.
There is this one factor why I really can’t call or text her. It’s our age difference. I said to myself. I’ve done a very embarrassing thing- running from her, and she is only 1st year high school. I said to myself that I’ll never think about giving her a message anymore. I was about to put down my phone then, beep, a text message from an unknown number came “Hi!”. My eyes grew big. I was so happy thinking that she is the one who sent the text message. I replied and I asked who she is. ”Secret, I’ll tell you soon” was the reply. Oh my oh my.. I was so excited that I was trying to impress her with my witty comments. We talked through text from morning until afternoon then that person revealed to me that he is a gay and my family friend, Chris, was the one who gave him my number. I was soOOOooOooOoooOo disappointed and pissed that I didn’t reply to him anymore. It was my fault for being too excited.
It was night time when I realized that having the thought of talking to Lili-Ann is the best feeling I ever felt. I was so happy thinking that we were chatting. I said to myself: “I’ll take my chance. I’m going to send her a text message and I’ll just hope for the best thing to happen.” I said to her in the message: “Goodnight!”. Tic tac tic tac.. There was no reply. It was so sad. I was like I guess stars are really impossible to reach. Then i slept.
I wake up in the morning. Still on my bed I look up on the ceiling. I’m trying to move on and be the confident Jack I am again. I said to myself, I’m the perfect guy she’ll ever have too but she didn’t realize it. I’m not the typical guy. I’ll make her head crazy about me. I’ll make her want to stay forever with me. I’m the best lover she’ll ever have and too bad she didn’t reply on my text message. Then I get up on my bed, get my phone and opened the message I received. ”I’m so sorry, I can’t reply to your message last night because my cell phone didn’t have load. Anyway, who’s this? –From: Lili-ann–”.
