WHY DID I LIKE A YOUNGER GUY?! Part 2

CONTINUED FROM 'WHY DID I LIKE THE YOUNGER GUY?'

He was clad in a black tee and jeans and was with an old lady(who I'm not sure was his lola or his yaya).I stared at the wrong guy all along(the one I mentioned who wore aqua and was seated toward the right side of the room)!He was also looking back and I'm sure he was looking at the noisy PSP boys.Though I thought he looked like he was looking at me since those noisy grade six boys were right at the back of me.

OMG...what if by any chance, he caught me looking at the boy who I thought was Eugene Herrera(who I later realized he wasn't Eugene Herrera)?I'd look stupid, since I probably had a funny expression on my face.I knew deep inside I couldn't do anything about it because I wasn't sure if he even noticed me.

I remember how my mom found it too noisy in our places that we moved to the front.We did moved there, where, the Boy was right in front of us(though there was a bit of space between us).When we sat down already, I brought out my book and just pretended to answer it(it was a vocabulary enrichment book).There was just no way I want him to catch me staring at him.Though the event ended right after moving near him, I was still able to see him afterwards leaving the school.I remember going inside the school to go to my mom and he got out at the same gate I entered.I caught him looking at me but I never felt that it was significant since it wasn't like a glance or anything.

Even with this, I was still a bit in denial with having a crush on him.He was probably twelve for crying out loud!while I was about to turn fourteen then.I only realized that I really had a crush on him was the next time I saw him.

It was a Friday then and I was in my bro's school.I decided to let my hair down so if ever there was a chance he notices me,it won't be me in my signature ponytail.True enough, I saw him.He was using the same black shirt he wore the last encounter I had with him.The thing is, rather than looking bored, he was SMILING.

I've never seen this Boy smile.And he was cute, as if he was never even cuter.I was captured because not only did he seem happy, he had something in his eyes.I sound really cheesy now, but it's true.His friend was doing(at times, unsuccessfully) head kicks with a soccer ball when I saw him LAUGH along with a few of his friends.

It was also there I saw a GIRL laughing with him.She was young and petite and had hideous looking hair(probably she used those cheap hair dyes from China and burned her short hair in the straightening iron) thrown in a high pony.She was two feet beside the Boy, her whole body facing him(which,according to a body language expert means she must be into him) whilst looking at his Mr.David Beckham friend.

She probably could be a yaya...but the way she carried herself didn't say so, I think.She had on a gray marl jersey-like hoodie, keeping both of her hands in the kangaroo pocket.I know it seems nothing that a girl was beside him(he looked like he didn't know she was beside her) but I was jealous.And I'm not a selosa type.

I was jealous because I wanted to be in her place then, acting comfy around really rowdy grade six boys and especially being beside HIM.

That was probably the last time I saw him.

Months after that, I read one of my brother's K-Zone magazines. I noticed in the fan art section, that the boy's older brother(who I know his name) had a drawing featured. What surprised me even more was in that same section, a boy who had the same last name as the older brother had a drawing featured, too. I knew there was a ray of light somewhere since I know for sure that this is the name of the boy(he and his brother have a very unusual last name AND I notice that he and his brother's first and middle name are named after American presidents. Am I not clever to decipher that?). But even if his name was already given to me by fate, I know it would be very uncertain to see him again.

From the first time I saw him as a tall grade five kid who (according to my parents) plays volleyball to an even taller grade six boy who totes a bulky guitar bag(containing no other than a guitar) and hangs out with my bro.I no longer have a super crush on him because I haven't seen him for a long time. He still holds a place in my heart since he's the first crush I ever had that didn't end in heartbreak. And I know he's now a high school kid.
