I nodded.
“Nice to meet you, Pete”
I was about turning to my front when he quic-kly asked;
“You major in philosophy, I guess?”
I smiled f0rç£fully and nodded.
“I’m from English Dep@rtment…”
“Nice” I muttered.
“Huh… Actually, I wanna talk to you. If you don’t mind,, after clas-s,, can we-
“Axel? You are late” I heard Prof. Elliot say.
I quic-kly turned to see Axel, walking up to the seats. He had a dull look on his face. His face looked pale, hisl-ips were dry, and white. He looked really sick and he seemed to have emaciated.
“What happened to him?” I thought.
Axel didn’t give anyone a glance,, even me. I watched him pas-s me and sit at the extreme back.
End of Clas-s**
Students started leaving in groups after Prof. Elliot walked out. Lily stood up and tapped me. She noticed I was in thoughts.
“What’s wrong with you?” She asked, when my eyes met with hers.
I f0rç£d a smile.
“What do you mean?” I asked.
“You seem lost. Anyways, clas-s is over. Let’s gr-ab lunch”
“Uh… Go without me. I wanna check something out first”
“Huh? Okay then… See you later” Lily waved and walked out.
I sighed and turned to see Axel head on the table. He seemed to be slee-ping.
“What’s his problem?” I thought, and stood up. I walked to him, checked everywhere and t©uçhed his n£¢k by his collar side. He was fv¢king sweaty.
“Sh!t,, He’s really running temperature” I almost yelled.
“Axel? Axel?… Wake up” I called.
He sl@pped my hand off him before looking at me.
“What are you doing?” He asked, coldly.
I stared at his sick, but harsh looking eyes. He wiped his sweat with his hanky and stood up. I couldn’t st©p staring at him.
“What has come over you?” I asked.
“Why do you care?” He asked back, before leaving.
I suddenly felt sad, and pitiful. I was hurt… Why?
I looked down, then someone held my hand. I blinked my eyes, and my expression seemed to be changing. I took my eyes up to see… Pete?
“Huh? Pete?” I asked, and took my hand off.
“Here,, I noticed you didn’t go out for lunch” He said, giving me a sandwich and a drink.
“No,, I’m- I paused, when I saw Axel walked in. He seemed to have forgotten his book. I saw it on the table.
He st©pped when he saw us. He looked at me, and I gave him a sharp quic-k glance.
“Thank you, I appreciate” I smiled, at Pete, and took the things from him.
Axel decided to take his leave, not caring if he had his book or not.
“By the way, Pete. What was that you said, you wanted to talk about,, after clas-s?” I asked, quic-kly.
I saw Axel wait again. This time, he was backing us. I sm-irked,, cause I expected him to wait.
Pete smiled.
“So, you remembered?”
“Why won’t I?” I chuckled, awkwardly.
“Actually, I was thinking if you could go on a d@t£ with me,, this weekend… are you free?” He asked.
I looked at him briefly, and slowly took my eyes to Axel who was still standing.
“Okay then,, I’m gonna go with you,, next week end,, right?”
“Sure! Thank you so much. I’m gonna be expecting you. MB eatery, you know there, right?”
“Yeah, I do”
“I’m gonna wait for you there. Let’s make it 1pm?” He couldn’t st©p smiling.
“Sure” I f0rç£d a smile.
I looked and later saw Axel leaving.
Week End**
“Where are you off to?” Julie asked.
“A d@t£” I replied, straightforwardly.
“What! Really! With?”
“Pete”
“Pete? Axel’s course mate with the cute smile, and low cut hair. He’s great though,, from what I heard”
“Whatever. I think this is the last d@t£ I’m gonna go with him”
“Hey,, what are you talking about?… You haven’t even started..” Julie said.
“Do you think he has a girlfriend?” I asked, taking my black bag to my shoulder.
I wore a dark pink dress, with a lady’s belt around my w@!st. My shoes were slight edged. I had my long dark hair tied into a pony tail.
“Don’t know. Pete wouldn’t have asked you out if he’s d@t!ng” Julie said.
I chuckled and shook my head.
“Why did you chuckle?” She asked.
“You don’t know guys, obviously” I said, and waved her goodbye,, before leaving.
MB Eatery**
I walked in, and looked around.
“Rose, here!” I heard Pete’s voice.
I turned to the direction and saw him, waving with a smile on his face. I chuckled and walked up to him.
“I’m not late, am I?” I asked, and sat down.
“Not really” He chuckled.
“I’m gonna order now. What would you like to take?” He asked.
“Anything… Light meals and non alcoholic drink to be precise” I replied.
“Okay” He win-ked and signalled to the waiter, who rushed to attend to us.
24 Minutes Later**
As we were eating, discussing and laughing. I felt Pete was the real deal. He was a total vibe. Everything about him was cool and sweet. I even began to contemplate if I should go on a next d@t£ with him.
“Is this where you were?” I heard a feminine voice asked, out of the blue.
We both turned around. I saw a girl who wore a red short fitted dress with long heels. She had the most expensive and genuine jewelries worn. Her hair was blonde.
“Who’s she?” I asked, in a mutter,, looking at Pete who stared at her, shockingly.
Pete quic-kly stood up.
“Vivian,, I can ex-
Vivian sl@pped him ha-rd .
“You told me you were gonna be with your friends, for a study group,, you liar! It’s over between us” She snapped and walked out.
“fv¢k,, No! Vivian! I can explain” He said, and quic-kly pursued her.
I just sat there, motionless and speechless.
Finally, I scoffed, and dropped the fork down.
“I guess all guys are the same after all”
I wiped myl-ips with the serviette and stood up. I wore my bag and took a step. Immediately, I did,, my edge on my shoe, did it worst by sli-pping.
I felt my whole b©dy reacting by going to the ground but fortunately, someone quic-kly held me by the w@!st. I looked up, at the person and saw… Axel?
“Happy Val,, Rose” He win-ked.

I quic-kly stood upright. I looked at Axel and he looked back.
“How was your d@t£?” He asked.
I scoffed.
“Such sarcasm”
I left and he followed. We were now outside.
I turned and faced him.
“Are you following me, right now?” I queried.
“Does it seem so? I’m only going home” He replied.
“Did you stalk me?” I asked.
“Isn’t follow the right word?” He asked, with a sly smile.
“You nuts? Why would you follow me?” I asked.
“I wanted to expo-se who Pete really is. Shouldn’t you be glad?” He asked.
“Gla…what?” I shook my head.
“Vivian is d@t!ngPete. You saw that yourself. I actually took Vivian’s number today, and she gave me without a second thought. I called her here, and made her see the unexpected. Didn’t see that coming, huh?” He chuckled.
I was in rage alre-ady.
“You…are an as-s.h*le” I blurted, stressing my words, sharply.
“What?”
“All guys are as-s.h*les!” I yelled, at his face.
“All guys? Does it mean,, your dad isn’t different?” He asked, quietly.
“What?” I cooed.
“Why? Isn’t that what you mea-
Before he could pronounce the -nt,, I alre-ady sl@pped him ha-rd ,, on his right cheek.
His face reacted by moving to the left, slightly. He li-cked the inner right side of his cheek with his ton-gue before looking back at me.
I still felt this,, this,, I don’t know,,, painful rage.
I looked at him with a ha-rd , and cold glare and just then, I sl@pped him again,, on that same right cheek.
“Oww” He winched.
He looked at me, and chuckled.
“You sl@p ha-rd ,, you kn-
I raised my hand again, towards his face to sl@p him. However,, he caught my hand quic-kly,, raising it on mid air.
He looked at me briefly and turned his left cheek over.
“At least,, sl@p me here. The right is beginning to hurt” He said.
I said nothing. When he saw I wasn’t in the mood, he kept my hand down,, and let go off it.
He looked at me and sighed.
“Rose,, I-
*Pahh!* That was my hand again,, sounding across his right cheek.
Axel almost stumbled. He looked at me, and I turned away. I slowly walked away.
When I was alre-ady leaving,, I heard a loud thud,, followed by screams…
I quic-kly turned around to see Axel on the floor.
What the-
How come??
***
I and Axel were now in the taxi. He rested his head on my l@ps. I looked at his right cheek. It was looking so reddish.
I didn’t know this would happen.
I sighed, and t©uçhed his forehead. He was so fv¢king burning h0t. I nearly screamed. His temperature could boil a whole kettle of water.
It’s my fault!
“Driver,, plea-se hurry to the hospital” I sobbe-d.
Axel quic-kly held my hand which was still on his forehead.
“No,, plea-se,, not the hospital” He pleaded.
“What?” I muttered.
“Take me home,, plea-se” He said.
“But you are…
“plea-se,, just take me home” He whispered, sickly.
I inhaled de-eply.
“plea-se take me to Chad’s hostel”
***
To avoid anyone seeing I and Axel together, I bought a face mask,, alongside a face cap.
I couldn’t leave Axel on his own cause he was weak and could ha-rd ly walk.
Though it wasn’t that simple,, I was able to take Axel to his room,, as he directed.
“Ugh!” I placed him on the sofa.
He sighed heavily and rested properly on the sofa.
“Where are your drugs?” I asked.
He shook his head.
“I don’t have any”
“What!” I shouted, amidst my p@n-ting.
“Then,, then,, why did you ask me to bring you here. Going to the hospital would have been better” I added, stomping my feet.
“No. I’m gonna be better after I rest” He whispered, and shut his eyes.
I sighed de-eply, and searched his things. I took out a small towel,, and got cold water which I poured in a bowl.
35 Minutes Later**
“This kind of works.. Rest alongside,, using cold water” I smiled.
He weakly opened his eyes.
“I told you” He muttered.
“Since you are quite better,, let me take my leave..” I said, and stood up but he suddenly gr@bb£d my w@!st from behind,, hvgging me.
I blinked my eyes,, not bothering to turn back to him.
“What’s it?” I asked.
“I’m hungry. plea-se,, make something light for me to eat” He said.
***
We both ate the noodles from the same plate. I kept stealing glances at him.
“I guess you are really better now” I said, and took another string of noddle.
He smiled and nodded.
“Just a bit weak” He said, taking his own string as well.
We paused,, when we felt something weird. We looked at each other,, and saw we had the same string of noddle in our mouth.
At each side, our mouth ti-ghtly held onto it. I looked at him de-eply and blinked my eyes.
He slowly took the string into his mouth,, and I could feel him coming closer to me.
I didn’t let go of the string. Just didn’t know why… I only watched him.
We suddenly got to close,, that we could heard our breaths.
“Rose?” He called.
I raised my lashes and looked at him.
“You wanna come closer?” He asked.
What were we doing? I mean,, what was I doing?,, I shouldn’t be doing this…
I swallowed ha-rd ,, and felt the remaining string entering in. I moved closer and we both slowly took it in, coming closer to our bodies.
Suddenly,, ourl-ips crashed. My whole vibr@ted,, and I felt my heart beat,, jump.
He slowly began to k!ssme,, what sweetness! His k!ss!ngdidn’t fade away. It had this unique taste,, and pas-sion drive.
I didn’t want him to st©p. I quic-kly returned the k!ssand kept my left hand, rest on his che-st,, while his hand stayed on my cheeks.
Was this….love?
