That same araw - Eric's perspective
Oh Jeez...Why did she have to point me out to her friends? I wasn't interesting. They know that I had been watching her for months.
To stop meeting her gaze and being embarrassed I hid myself in a book hoping that I would stop being embarrassed.
"Hey Eric you must be really into that book," My friend Tom sinabi to me as he sat down across from me.
Maybe not. I put the book down a bit "Oh yeah it's great. uy do you have girls staring at you?" I asked him
His face lit up and he smirked "Oh yeah it's great. I get asked out all the time," he said
I frowned "Nobody ever did right?" I asked
He frowned "No. So what girl is staring at you. Is she cute?" he asked
I nodded over to Athena "Her. She just noticed me today. Do you think she's cute?" I asked
Tom got a weird look on his face "Dude that's my sister Athena. Do you like her? I can hook you up with her," he sinabi grinning and starting to stand up
I pulled him back down "No no. Don't do that. I kind of don't but I think she likes me," I said
He glared "Why don't you like her?" he asked
I sighed "It's complicated. You wouldn't understand," I sinabi slumping down
Tom nodded "Ah," he sinabi He knew when I sinabi that he should just back off
The long low kampanilya rang and everybody filed out of the cafeteria. Tom and I were last. Tom didn't really care about school. He figured that he would go to community college and get a job as a waiter at famous restuarants.
"Hey can I come over to your house after school?" I asked
He smirked "Why so you can spy on Athena?" he asked
I shoved him "No! I have a science project and I figured you would help me out," I lied
He nodded "Oh okay. Just get in the car with Athena and I. Our grandma takes us home,"
As we were walking out of the cafeteria a boy started walking susunod to Tom "Hey Tom I just bet your sister 200 hundred bucks that I would marry her," he gloated
Tom winced "Jason first of all go away segundo of all you will never ever marry my sister," he said
Jason smiled "You want to bet on that? You owe me 100 hundred bucks if I marry her," he said
Tom held out his hand "Deal weirdo," he said. They shook hands
Jason turned to me "What about you? You want to partake in this bet?" he asked
I smirked. Ah this boy. Athena in the future talked a lot about him. I knew who he was "Sure. I think you are going to marry her as well. I bet you all 1000 dollars that you and Athena will have a son," I said
Jason widened his eyes "Wow! I like you kid! You are cool! Wait are you being sarcastic?" he asked
Before I got the chance to answer him the late kampanilya rang and we all sprinted towards our classes.
As I entered the classroom everybody looked at me. Including my strict teacher. "Well glad you could sumali us Mr. Maloney. I suppose you can't tell us what a hot spot is?" he said
The whole class hadn't learned that yet but I have. I told him and he looked surprised. I sat down and he left me alone the whole period. Good thing thing too. I needed time to think.

I feel like I have always known you
We’ve always been so close but
You look away
You tell me that you pag-ibig me
But your eyes say something else
It shouldn’t be so difficult for me
To turn away
Chorus:
Every time we talk at night
Every time you make me feel alright
When you say goodbye
You say you’ll think of me all the time
I know it’s a lie
And I’m slowly breaking
I’m slowly breaking
Somehow you just cannot see
The way I smile when you look at me
Are you completely blind?
Cuz’ I’ve ibingiay you all the signs
That I pag-ibig you
Chorus:
And now I’m falling apart
You’ve gone from my life
I can’t take it anymore
My new best friend is a knife
What you were to me
Made me complete
looked in the mirror and saw that ugly girl
That girl that constantly reminded of who I was,
Of what I was.
I was a murder
People say My parents death wasn’t my fault
I killed them
I felt guilty
I felt ashamed
I was the one to blame
My life flashed before my eyes
I saw the fire, the crash
I saw the flames erupt inside me
I felt tears burn my eyelids
I felt it as much they did
They burned, I burned
I didn't want to be left alone
I never wanted them to leave
Though I was taken from them
They were also taken from me
Though they're gone,
We both pay the price
Death
And Scars.
That girl that constantly reminded of who I was,

I saw the fire, the crash

I felt tears burn my eyelids
I felt it as much they did
They burned, I burned
I didn't want to be left alone
I never wanted them to leave
Though I was taken from them
They were also taken from me
Though they're gone,
We both pay the price
