*Karina's P.O.V*

Me and winter are still here admiring the view of the beautiful city lights in front of us, with the comfortable silence that surrounds us none bothered to talk.

It's currently 11:00 pm, and I wonder how long we'll be here. I decided to glance at winter, she looks like she's deep in her thoughts, finally snapping to reality she looked at me. "Meron bang dumi mukha ko?" She asked, I chuckled at her cuteness before looking away.

"Wala." Sabi ko, "Meron eh, kanina ka pa nakatingin." Winter said, I let out a sigh before scooting closer towards her. "Bawal ba?" I asked, umiling sya at nginitian ako.

"Hindi naman, pero dahil sa tingin mo baka matunaw ako." She joked, I bit my lower lip trying to suppress a smile, I heard her laugh sa side ko. "Ang cute mo Karina."

"You're cuter winter," Ngayon naman sya yung lumayo ng tingin, natawa na din ako sa mga pinag gagawa namin. "Crush mo ba ako?"

I'm a bit taken back by her question as my body stiffened. Am I that obvious?? Gosh, I thought I'm not..

"Hala, bakit hindi ka na nag salita? Joke lang naman eh." Winter said, "What if Oo? Do I stand a chance?" I asked, we stared at each other with admiration, I admired her facial features na kahit ngayon I'm still in awe whenever I stare at them.

I didn't get any answer, my stomach dropped as I felt my heart slowly ache. I looked away. Once again trying to divert my attention on something else that's not her. But I can't.

I hoped for an answer- I hoped that she'll say that I do stand a chance. Our comfortable silence turned into a thick air of awkwardness. She's staring at me, while I closed my eyes in the process.

"We should go now." I said, the coldness of my voice somewhat send shivers in me. Hindi ko pa nagagawa ito kay winter, and doing this to her hurts me.

That wasn't a direct confession.

And not a direct rejection.

But why does it hurt?

Maybe, I don't stand a chance sakanya after all. Maybe nag assume lang ako ng sobra sa mga ginagawa nya sa akin? Ang tanga ko sa part na yon.

I called kuya na sunduin kami, I keep my distance kay winter, to lessen the awkward tension na namumuo between me and her.

Dumating na ang sundo namin, yung usual na Hi-Ace na dala nya ang ginamit to pick us up. I sat at the very back row while winter sat on the shut gun seat.

"Kamusta po lakad nyo madam?" Manong asked, trying to find a radio station to ease the silence. "It's ok, manong." I said.

I glanced at winter who's looking at me, I bit my lip and closed my eyes and drifted off to dream land.

*Winter's P.O.V*

Hindi ko ang alam ang maari kong isagot kay Karina nung gabing iyon. Dumaan ang araw na wala kaming pansinin at last 3 days nalang din kami dito sa Baguio.

Hindi ko nagugustuhan ang paglayo niya, at dahil don napapansin ko ang pag kamiss ko sa kakulitan at pagiging bossy niya sakin.

Buong trip siguro ay parang mas assistant pa ni Karina ang dating yeji kesa sakin na ikinainis ko din.

Ako kasi dapat yon eh, hindi si yeji. Tsaka ako ang kinukulit ni ryujin dahil palagi daw si yeji ang kasama ni Karina at hindi sila makapag bebe time.

Wow bebe time akala mo May label ano.

I also saw how clingy Karina is kay yeji, and something in me is not liking it one bit.

Kaya naman ay kakausapin ko na siya. Naalala ko tuloy yung pangyayari after non, para kasing nag iba ang ihip ng hangin at ang attitude ni Karina.
