At the day I first saw the University of Santo Tomas in the UAAP, I knew I had to be a Golden Tigress. When I passed the USTET, I immediately asked if they have tryouts for aspiring golden tigresses and they said yes. Now I'm here, as the UST Golden Tigresses' Captain.
Our coach's words hurt me so much when I first came here. I always thought I was a good volleyball player, but I was told that my level is just the level in a stupid sports fest in an unknown high school. Of course, I'm an aspiring golden tigress noon and all the golden tigresses are skilled. I need to match their level. And I did.
But before that, I actually thought of being a Lady Spiker, too, since I passed DLSUCET. But there's this rookie back then in the green archers na hindi ko feel, so umayaw ako. He's not really kind. I mean yes, I am rude at times pero he has this different feeling na hindi ko maintindihan. Natatakot ako? Maybe. I can't tell.
His gaze is frightening. Sobrang uncomfortable ako noong nagtama ang mga mata namin nung nasa DLSU ako. I don't want to look at them again, ever. Pakiramdam ko nanghihina ako. I've watched his games a lot of times since I'm friends with Lucas, teammate niya na green archer din. Although Lucas has fiercer features than Jeno, palagi siyang nakangiti so I never got this feeling I have with Jeno the first time I saw him. Meanwhile the one and only Lee Jeno. . . never smiles. Kahit palagi silang panalo, I never saw him smile. Sa TV man o sa personal.
His cold aura made people drool over him. Bad boy image, kumbaga. They can't feel this thing I have with him since he's really kind to his fans. I actually saw his twitter once and aside from the fact that he only tweets photos na nasa Starbucks siya, he really replies to lots of comments or fine-favorite niya. That's why he's one of the crowd's favorites.
Due to my (kinda) excessive stalking to Jeno every single day, madalas na din akong pumunta sa Starbucks sa may La Salle - that is, kung may oras ako. It usually takes more or less than an hour, depending on the traffic, before ako makarating sa Malate. I waste my money for commuting just to go to the Starbucks branch that a scary athlete usually goes to. Wow, Lilac Halili.
I'm actually at Starbucks right now and truth be told, kahit kailan hindi ko pa nakita o nasabayan si Jeno dito though I see him tweet a photo of his in Starbucks! In. Malate! How annoying! Why am I even here, anyway?
Hindi ko din maintindihan ang sarili ko.
I silently flipped a page from the book entitled "Safe Haven" as I sipped from my iced coffee, not planning to find for Jeno anymore. Since I started to come to this branch, parang it all put the other branches to shame. Hindi na 'ko comfortable sa iba, dito lang. Weird, I know.
I felt my phone vibrate from my pocket pero hindi ko na tiningnan. It's probably just the 'Tigers + Tigresses' group chat, chatting about stupid things na kahit kailan hindi ko maiintindihan.
As I became more immersed in the story, I saw a book and a cold brew placed in front of me, and a familiar figure sitting from my peripheral view. The person might get awkward kapag tiningnan ko pa siya, so I just kept reading. He started to read also, and I noticed din that the book was "Looking For Alaska." A John Green fan, I see.
We were both quiet as we read, simultaneously sipping our respected beverages - until the the person spoke.
"I reckon that there's a Starbucks branch in University of Santo Tomas, yet you go here to the branch near La Salle. I wonder why, Ms. Golden Tigress?" aniya.
My sight quickly shifted from my book to the person in front of me and here I face. . . my fear. Exaggerated, yup. But still, his gaze is shooting me like daggers right now. I was mute as he stared straight into my eyes as if I'm an open book. "U-Uh," I muttered nervously.
I was the first one to look away, and I looked down. I coughed once before raising my head high once again, and he was still staring at me. I tried not to look fazed and answered, "I just want to. Got any problem with that, Mr. Green Archer?"
"You took your time."
"Shut," up, I was about to say, but he cut me off. He moved his face nearer to me, his hand rested on his chin. Gwapo, pero takot pa rin ako so, no thanks.
"Spill, wild Tigress, who are you finding?"
You!
"No one, Archer!" sigaw ko at lumabas na sa Starbucks. Damn, that smart guy! He is indeed the Hawkeye of the Green Archers, and I hate it!
