Son Of The Criminal

Episode 13 : The Courting Stage

After a couple of seconds of calming down, Harley finally stopped crying but the two spent their time together inside that section......

Harley: (looks down) so, I just realized that Geo likes me....
Saint: wait.... you just knew it?
Harley: what do you mean that I just knew it?
Saint: I have been observing you two since I see you guys together all the time and it seems like Geo really likes you.....
Harley: I don't know what to feel right now because he was really caring, the only reason is I do not feel.....
Saint: (looks at Harley)
Harley: I do not feel the same for him.... and.... by means of really caring, I mean is.... it was such a pressure to be with him...... it is scary....
Saint: (looks down sadly) pressure?
Harley: I am pressured, they way that he has been giving me a lot, treating me so much since we became friends, at first, I did not notice it but as time goes by, he is holding me to things that I want.....
Saint: like what?
Harley: (looks at Saint) to.... to be friends with you.....
Saint: (looks down) oh... (feels sad)
Harley: and it just not make sense because you are harmless, in fact... you are the one getting attacked all the time......
Saint: (looks sadly at Harley)
Harley: I don't know what to do anymore if I see him again, I am scared if he is mad, if his father will force me again to be okay with him.... I am just sick of that life.......
Saint: (looks down) (feels sad) (takes a deep breath)
Harley: (looks at Saint) Saint? I an wondering what you want to tell me yesterday.....
Saint: huh? (look at Harley)
Harley: remember when you wanted to tell me something but the bus arrived cutting our conversation?
Saint: I do not think its the right time for you to hear it.....
Harley: why Saint? I wanna know? Will it hurt? Is it to frank? Is there something wrong with me?
Saint: its not that Harley... and besides, your situation might affect your reaction and I am scared.....
Harley: (looks down) you are here anyway... and I am sticking with you Saint..... if you wanna tell me or not, sure I will be okay with that..... thanks for understanding... (smiles)
Saint: (holding himself) (in his mind) should I tell him? I really wanna tell him.....
Harley: (lies his head on Saint's shoulder)
Saint: (looks at Harley) (strokes Harley's hair)
Harley: I do not know why but I am so much comfortable with you.....
Saint: (smiles slightly) Harley..... I really wanna tell you right now....
Harley: Sure... tell me.... do not be scared.... I won't judge.....
Saint: I was holding to tell this because you just told me about Geo and how you weren't feeling the same with him..... and I am.... (bites his lips) (looks down)
Harley: (listens carefully)
Saint: and... and I am scared that you won't also feel the same if I ask you what Geo wants with you earlier..... (feels sad)
Harley: (looks down) (in his mind) you like me, Saint?
Saint: I know this is too early for us but.... (takes a deep breath) you changed my life already in a moment.....
Harley: (looks slowly at Saint)
Saint: and I want to ask if I can court you.... cause I like you..... I don't know where to run anymore since you came in my life..... (covers his face with his knees)
Harley: (smiles widely) (takes off Saint's hood) you like me? (stokes Saint)
Saint: (nods)
Harley: (wraps his arms around Saint) (lays his head on Saint's shoulder) (whispers) I would love to be with you.....
Saint: (looks at Harley) really Harley???
Harley: (smiles) (nods)
Saint: (hugs Harley tightly) (crying) thank you so much Harley....... (lies his head on Saint's shoulder)
Harley: oh Saint.... do not cry...... (pecks Saint's head) do not worry about Geo or my friends.... when we are together, we are in a different world... our own world.....
Saint: (nods) I will prove you, I promise..... I will never hurt you......
Harley: I will protect your heart Saint.... thank you too for trusting me.....
*Saint and Harley hugs each other*

Geo was nowhere to be find after the rejection he got from Harley, Santi was also finding him everywhere but he cannot find Geo...... at  the hallway......

Santi: (looks around) (in his mind) where did he go? I cannot find him anywhere.... (sees a golden braceler near the trash can) this is the gift Geo had for Harley.... (picks up the bracelet) (feels sad) (puts the bracelet in his pocket) I feel bad for Harley and Geo..... I don't even know where should I place myself.... (takes a deep breath)

After more periods, it is now finally dismissal.... Harley and Saint were together at the bus stop.....

Harley: (smiles down)
Saint: why are you happy Harley?
Harley: you want the lie or the truth?
Saint: of course the truth....
Harley: I am glad you told me... especially that I am feeling the same for you.....
Saint: oh Harley.... you sound so much cheesy more than me.....
Harley: excuse me Saint? who was cheesy earlier?
Saint: oh... was I cheesy too?? hahaha.... maybe we are both cheesy....
Harley: (rolls his eyes) well, whatever it is.... you made my could've been gloomy friday turn to a very promising friday.....
