It’s been one year since my twin brother died. I transferred to his university because he loved it there. As a transfer student, I'll observe, I'll look around. I sat down under a guava tree near on the only clean stone bench I found. Some students waved as if they knew me. I just smiled. On the left side of the bench there's an Acacia tree, I smiled because I supposed that’s the location my brother must have sat because he loves sitting on the floor under a tree. It would have been his favorite spot. A simple beautiful girl caught my attention. I can tell she's one of the guys yet she's elegantly pretty in every way you looked at her.
The girl who caught my attention was the one who's on everyone's conversation later that day as I left my class. I heard some of my fellow classmates talking, "Did you see her? She’s flinging and flirting another campus guy again..."
"Yes, I saw her, she's with the most popular guy at the gym yesterday, and then, I saw her earlier at the corridor with him." As I walked behind them, I could hear every details of their conversation.
I shook my head in disbelief and thought, ‘They talk too loud.’ I stopped when I saw her at the corridor. She's fantastic on how the way she walks and yet the conversations continues. Three girls were talking who's standing near the hallway. "Wow! She's really flirting," said one of them. Everyone had their opinion afterwards.
"So... That means..." I stopped. I started walking towards my car.
As I start my car, I can't help but to think what I’ve heard. I parked my car somewhere at some fast-food chain. I can't think properly. I start my car once again, drive into the drive-thru window orders some food there and I decided to go home.
The next morning, I went to the university earlier than the start of my class and sit where I sat down yesterday. I heard some fellow students talking and laughing under the Acacia tree. "She has that guts because that was all she have." says one of the girls with sarcasm tone. Then they all them laugh and suddenly, they began to keep quiet.
"Hi!" greet one of the boys. I saw the girl again. She smiled at them genuinely. My eyes begun to open wider, "How can they say something ridiculous and greet her as if she's one of their friends?" I ask myself.
Therefore, I decided to observe that girl more so I will know what the problem was, why she was always their topic on their conversation.
Day by day, all I can see is her kindness, her genuine smile and her ever-pretty beautiful face.
That girl has a black, shiny, silky and long hair above the knee. Her university skirt is 4inches long below her knee. She's simple because she never wear any make-ups on her face.
It’s been two years since I observe her yet I didn't even saw those personality that I do hear from everyone.
It was four o'clock in the afternoon and I'm about to stand at my favorite spot because I have to go home and rest when I heard my fellow classmates talking about her. "She's really flirt! I really hate her!" one of my classmates says with anger.
"You want to talk to her that matter? She's at the Architecture Department, she's one of my boyfriend's classmate." says the friend of my classmate.
"No! You should beware! She might flirt on your boyfriend then you might get break up one day." says my classmate and they go.
I smirk. "She's not that kind of girl..." I said unto myself.
I heard something somewhere so I looked at the direction of it. I saw her sitting at one of the stems of the Acacia tree. I'm shock when she's about to jumped at that tall tree yet the shocking feeling begun to be an expression of frightened. I saw her face like I saw one of the dangerous creature on earth.
That was the first day I saw her with that frightening expression of her face. Its dangerously like hell. I never thought that angelic face like that, would have an expressive burning eyes which made my whole body tremble.
It’s already midnight and I can't sleep because of that expression of hers. I can't still believe that I could be so afraid which will make my body tremble like that just by looking her frightening expression.
Monday afternoon, as I sat on my favorite spot, I heard steps like running and when I'm about to look at it, I felt an air and saw like shadow.
I saw her climbing using only her two feet at the tall Acacia tree effortlessly but at some point, she didn't reach top. So, when she's about to fall, I had my adrenaline rush to catch her.
