KOLTEN ZEDEKIEL'S POINT OF VIEW
"Coach!" I noticed that most of the students who were in the hallways turned their back as they heard me shouting, but successfully made my coach turn his back on me. He stopped and raised his brows as if waiting for me while I was half-run to get in his direction. He noticed the new tumbler he was holding.
"I'll just need to go upstairs, but I'll be quick." He gave me a perplexed look before smirking and tapping my shoulder.
"Are you asking for my permission to avoid being punished for being late or what?" He chuckled a bit before giving me a soft shoulder punch and nodded.
"Thanks, Coach! I'll promise to give you a good game later. I'll break a leg!" A genial smile, etched on his face, w

ASTRID TALITHA'S POINT OF VIEW I asked Kolten to drive me home first before heading to the Bliss Club, where we chose to celebrate Lia's getting into the volleyball team of the HRM department. I was wearing a maroon-sweat-shirt crop-top paired with my faded skinny high-waist jeans. I tried to put my night makeup which was a darker shade than the usual one, whenever I went to school every day, that was matching to the color of my outfit. My hair was well-ironed as we arrived there. Played basketball with my big brother while he was waiting for me. I already told him to go ahead of me and I will just be asked my brother to drop me off there since his meetings have been canceled, the reason why he got home earlier than usual, but he insisted that he can wait for me. "Here you are again. How was studying, guys?" Drey greet

KOLTEN ZEDEKIEL'S POINT OF VIEW I was seated on the floor of our locker room and watching how my teammates hastily ran outside with the thought that our coach would scold us if we got there later than we ought to be. When I was all alone in this white-painted locker room, the door was shut and the room was full of silence, I bowed down my head and said a silent prayer with my hands together before the big games this week. This was actually the awaited week for the entire team, especially for our coach. I managed to not be nervous and have a positive mindset as I was making my way to the vast basketball court of our campus. Orion turned his back and stopped for a while to wait for me before he threw his arm around my shoulder. As we went into the hall, we saw some students and faculty in our department wh

ASTRID TALITHA'S POINT OF VIEW "Did anyone ask my princess out for a date?" My Dad asked while I was sitting on his lap as he was watching his favorite baseball team playing in the finals while we were waiting for Mom who was busy preparing for our dinner. I helped her clean some dishes, the day after celebrating my birthday. I gave him a side glance of disgust as I heard what he asked, which made him chuckle a bit. I always tell him everything that happens to me in school. From the moment I was caught by my World History teacher sleeping in her class, from the time I went up to wait until my brother's class ended. I never like the idea of hiding something from him, probably because I had been too closed to him that I was too comfortable telling him it all. "You know Ko

ASTRID TALITHA'S POINT OF VIEW I used to treat him to a cup of hot chocolate in a small vintage restaurant. My Mom introduced this restaurant to me before. He told me that when she flew back here to the Philippines, she met an old lady that happened to be an old friend of grandma during their college years. She was the wife of the owner of this classic restaurant. I loved the ambiance it gave. All the furniture and fixtures that were hanging and displayed here. It was placed in an old street. It was actually one of the shops some may be walking past, but I was glad to know this place. There was some old and dusty cash register on the counter. It had been a long time, since the last time we went here. There were a few new designs of paintings hanging on the left corner of this restaurant. They added some tables and chai

KOLTEN ZEDEKIEL'S POINT OF VIEW "Bro, do you remember Martin who was wearing jersey number 14, the center player of the IT department we played against yesterday?" Orion asked while he was tying his dark gray basketball shoes he got by cleaning their garden last weekend. Uncle gave him two of this new edition, knowing that Orion used to give me any shoes that he got from his dad's company. "Yeah. What's about him?" I asked while checking on my inbox. I saw some messages from my Mom. She always called me every night, asking how was my day, the time I last ate, and even the last time I change my pillowcase. But I guess hearing those questions every night made me feel that they were both here with me. "He's a half-brother of Samuel." He abruptly ran his hand through his ha

KOLTEN ZEDEKIEL'S POINT OF VIEW "It is official, bro," I whispered to Orion who was wearing a pair of jerseys and seemed so tired while drying up her hair using the white towel that was hanging on his shoulder after we won in our game. I saw how he smirked before giving me a soft shoulder punch. "Finally, bro. I guess that was the reason why someone broke a leg in the court earlier." I just laughed before locking his head around my arms and hardly messed up his hair that was full of sweat while we were making our way going to the men's room. In the last 15 seconds of the last quarter of our game, when our coach called for a timeout, I told Astrid to wait for us outside since I noticed how the number of students from different departments gradually increased. "Hey, guys!

ASTRID TALITHA'S POINT OF VIEW "I'm happy for the both of you, girl. You know what Astrid, I am not saying this as a friend of Kolten, but you both are blessed to have each other." I smiled as she giggled and hugged me. "Thank you, Zette!" She looked so excited while linking her arm around Samuel's who was standing right next to her as we were waiting for Kolten and Orion near their locker room. "I suddenly remember how we started before. Honestly, I did not expect us to last this long." I smiled as I saw Samuel quickly smile as he heard Zette. They were so cute. "I thought you've been together even before. That what he told me back then." I shifted my gaze to Samuel who was smiling, and I could see how genuine he was, chuckled in response to him. "Maybe that was why he almost threw the ball, even in the half-court." He chuckled between his husky voice while taking off his jacket to put on to Zette who was just

KOLTEN ZEDEKIEL'S POINT OF VIEW We used to visit my grandparents whenever we were not busy during weekends. I told them about our relationship, Grandpa gave me some pieces of advice, he told me that those were the same advice he gave to Dad before. Grandma talked with Astrid in the kitchen while seemed like teaching her how to bake. I even heard them laughing about something. The moment we heard something burdening was the same time when we heard Grandma scolding her. Grandpa and I just let out a deep sigh for the nth time as hearing them, that actually happened every time we went there, but I guess, Astrid used to her attitude as she even bought and brought her own apron whenever we visited them. I took a bath early this since our couch strictly told that we should have been there as early as seven o'clock in the morn
