His Dangerous Obsession With Me

CHAPTER 1: Him

Astrea POV

"Hey, he's really good." I said to myself while stalking her on FB with matching thrills.

I've liked him for six years, we're classmates in elementary school, he's my first crush and first love. now that we're in high school I still like him but he doesn't know yet... I guess? Because it seems obvious to me, it's impossible to be numb. I have no plans to confess. Even if the end of the world is still tomorrow, I don't want... I don't want to admit it.

Those were my thoughts as I rolled over in bed.

"Astraea son, have breakfast here." I heard mom say from below.

"Go ahead." I answered and stood up.

We're not rich, we're not poor, it's just the right mix.

Another day... another stress. I'm consistently Top 1 in our room and I also play volleyball. It's also tiring sometimes but it's manageable.

I'm a multi-tasker.

I went down and got ready to go to school.

I was in C.R. doing some research when I noticed...

I am beautiful!

______________________________________

I arrived at the school and it wasn't long before ma'am had a discussion.

I was dumbfounded while staring at him... He looks just like a dream the prettiest boy I've ever seen.

He memorized every line with his perfect face. from his thick eyebrows, narrow eyes, long eyelashes and red lips.

That's not the only real reason why I like him.

I like him because he is cheerful, friendly and kind. In short green flag.

I was drowning in her beauty suddenly.

"Ms. Hera? Ms. Hera please solve the equation written on the board." Huh?? Is ma'am calling me or am I imagining it? Wait... could that be me? I turned pale when I realized that it was me who was being called. Everyone's attention turned to me, including Zero.

"Ma'am? Me?" I'm sure.

"Yes, you Ms. Hera." Shame on you Astraea.

I stood up and solved the equation on the board. It's just that easy.

Eventually it was time for a break and I walked to the cafeteria.

When I saw him with his girlfriend. it was still clinging to his arm like what... Like what.

It should be me! It's just a bath for me.

I'm here and it's choosy. How I wish that was me... You too will chase me one day.

I can see the joy in his eyes when he is with his girlfriend. It's the pain. By the way, I can't join us because I'm weak haha.

Do I give up now? I didn't even think about that in my six years of liking him.

I looked for a table and sat down, I waited for Cassidy. For sure, gossip can reach everywhere.

My eyes turned to their table. The two of them are sweet, the only thing missing is ants. That's just at first. He even followed his girlfriend, doesn't he have hands?! Stop it.

"Him again?" When suddenly someone appeared in front of me. Cassidy.

"Is there anything else?" He winced at my answer.

"Astraea... Astraea do you really have no plans to confess to him like hello? for six years Astraea ha try morin kaya." Hey, if he could say it, he'd be the one to admit it. It's not easy, g*ga

"I don't want to. I'll try? What if I reject you?" I will admire him from afar until the end of the world.

"Alright, your feelings are yours, hide them in the jar." he said sullenly.

"That's why I'm not joking."

"That's right, that's fine, btw what did I order for you?"

"Just our usual." I said.

"Okay." He said the last thing and walked to the counter.

I was busy reading when someone tapped me on the back. It's just Ezeckielle.

"You ok? Didn't you read last night?" He asked and sat next to me.

"Yes, it's because of the amount of people who were asked to do it."

He smiled and ruffled my hair.

"You're ugly, so what if you're stressed like you are now, you're the ugliest person on the face of the earth. Btw, we can eat together." excuse

"Tsk, you just want to eat with me why is there something like that. Let's just wait for Cassidy."

"Sure." and our useless conversation continued.

cHAPTER 2: Going to Canada in 1

month

I was doing an assignment when mom called me.

"Nak, come down there first, we'll just talk about something." Mom shouted so I got up and went downstairs. I left what I was doing first.

"What is that?" I will ask.

"Nak, we're going to go to Canada. First, your father has enough savings to go to that country and he found a job there with a great salary, besides, your graduation is coming soon, right? You told us you want to be a psychologist, there is a great opportunity to have a prestigious school that offers scholarships. Are you coming?" I was stunned by what mom said.

Leaving? How about Cassidy?

Ezekiel? What will happen to me without them? I can't handle it. How is it?

"Is there really no other way?" I will ask.

"I'm sorry, but this is for our future, for your future. But if they want to come, they can." Somehow the sadness in my heart was relieved.

"I understand you ma'am, I'll talk to them about that." That is if they come along.

"When are we leaving?" So that I can prepare.

"After and after you graduate." Does that mean I'm only staying here in the Philippines for one month? I will make the most of my 1 month in the Philippines. I will make memories that I will take to Canada.

After we finished talking, I went out for a while. I need to be able to think.

Zero entered my mind. Is this where it all ends? I can't admit it to him. I'm ready for a cup myself. But I think I will be admitted in no time. Can I do it? I don't know if I think about it first.

And besides, he might miss me, hehe, hey Astraea, why are you dreaming when you're awake?

I mean, that's what I read on wattpad, when the sister girl leaves and Boy blames it and chases after her.

__________________________________

We went on a fo-food trip and wattpad here under a tree that we always hang out when we have free time. here I will tell Cassidy and I must tell.

"Cassidy I have something to say." Cassidy turned his gaze to me.

"What's that, you look sad?" Is it obvious?... You know me too well Cassidy.

"Because mom said we are leaving for Canada. after and after graduation." He was surprised by what I said.

"How about that? It's only 1 month until our graduation day. I can't do it. Maybe when you come you won't know me." He even managed to make a joke.

"You're terrible, I can't forget your ugly face, right? But mom said if you want to come, you can. We'll study together in Canada. After all, you also want to be a psychologist, right? But if you don't want to it's ok with me." Cassidy and I have the same dream, to become a Psychologist to help those who are going through life.

"Don't worry, I'll come with you, you know we'll be close. Mommy and daddy will let me because you're there, you're their strength." I knew it.

"Really, thank you, tell Kay Ezeckielle too in case she comes with us." I said and hugged him.

I am really thankful when our bruhilda came into my life. Since we were young, our parents were friends. His family is rich but he befriended someone like me who is simple and ordinary.

CHAPTER 3: Be his tutor for 1 month

"Mr. Seviller, you failed my subject. What can you say about it?" Mrs. said sarcastically. Alfonso, everyone looked at Zero who is now being preached by ma'am, he's really a terror teacher, the type who doesn't do anything wrong and then suddenly gets angry, all that's missing is for his nerves to burst.

Zero put his hand on the back of his neck. "Because, ma'am, we were practicing volleyball so I couldn't comply, the intrams is close, I wish you good luck with us, ma'am." It's really good that he changed the topic but that didn't work for ma'am.

"I don't care Mr. seviller if you are busy practicing, if you can't do what I asked you to do then you are really failing. But... since you have a reason, I will choose your tutor to help you."

"Okay ma'am." Zero sighed. Does he have a choice? Nothing.

"The one I chose to be your tutor is... Ms. Hera, she is a very smart child, I know she will be disciplined and teach you well. Ms. Hera, you start tomorrow, you will teach her until the end of the school year. " Huh? Me?? Zero and I were both surprised but Yesss! this is what I've been waiting for the most, finally, me and Zero only envy you.

"Me ma'am? Go ahead." Zero is just strong for me. Shall we refuse? Of course not.

One month, One month I will teach Zero, After this I will leave. After all, he's going to do it all the way.

in the future we may never see each other again. You know, maybe when I come back here, he will have a family.

So now my face is going to be thick.

When ma'am finished her non-discussion, she approached Zero. Our other classmates came out.

"So, shall we start?"

"Sure." When he said that, I sat next to him.

"So which one do you not understand?" I said while looking at the textbook in front of us.

"Everything." I winced at his answer.

"All?"

Nods.

Our baby is a slow learner but that's fine, I accept you.

It seems like just yesterday I was jealous, now I'm thrilled.

But I know it will be difficult for me.

He started teaching. It's really a career for you guys. Don't worry Zero, I'll help you pass. After 30 minutes the lesson is over.

"So you get it?" I said when I finished teaching. That's all so he doesn't have a hard time. I explained the lesson to him in the easiest way I know so that he doesn't have to struggle anymore.

"Yes, thank you." He said, I could feel the sincerity in his words, Aunt Astraea, you are strong.

"Alright tomorrow, right?" I smiled at him and stood up.

"Sure." He said and smiled. there's a gosh he smiled at me ahhhh. Mom I think I'm in love.

FAST FORWARD

"What's wrong with you? You look like you're crazy when you're smiling."

I still can't get over what happened earlier.

"I'll just tell you later."

"I'm so happy!" I shouted in the hallway. They all looked at me but I didn't care how beautiful my day was.

______________________________________

"So that's it, he's handsome up close and then he smiles at me and then he's still kind." I said while talking to Cassidy on the phone. I can't stop the thrill every time I remember our interactions.

"I know Astraea, I know I said that twenty times before." He is pouring me with excitement.

"Oh, he's just so handsome." I said excitedly.

"Yes, I'm happy for you. but you know you'll only be here for 1 month, right? How about Zero? What if it gets attached to you? how are you?"

"Maybe he won't be attached to me, maybe he won't notice that I left. It's up to you, if one day we don't see each other again, that's fine with me, he's been a big part of my life and they say if you're really, really you, destiny will make a way."

"I'm so proud of you Astraea. Proud mama here." Cassidy said on their line.

*1 month later*

Today is our graduation day and this is the day when we leave for Canada. I'm happy for Zero because he passed the subject of Mrs. Alfonso at the same time I'm also proud of myself because I was the one who taught him.

During that one month I got to know Zero better, I got closer to him and I fell in love with him more and more, because we often talked and together we always laughed, he's perfect in every aspect.. .how I wish those moments will last forever, but sadly Ineed to leave.maybe now is not the right time for us, maybe in the next years, or maybe in our next lives.

All the moments we spent together I will treasure it forever.

This is the day.

I'm nervous. A lot of questions are still lingering in my head. What if he rejects me? What will be his reaction if he finds out I'm leaving? Will he be sad? Will he miss me? Will he stop me?

But either way I'm going to say my goodbyes.

He was going to approach Cassidy but he seemed to be busy talking to Maacim and seemed to be pushing hard, so I just looked for Ezeckielle.

It's hard to squeeze in here.

I saw Ezeckielle laughing with her friends that's why I approached her and asked a question.

"Ezeckielle where is Zero?" Ezeckielle's gaze turned to me.

"He's in the room, why are you looking for him?" Maybe it's surprising.

"Nothing, I'll talk to you."

He just nodded at my answer.

When I went to the room,

I saw Zero with his back facing the window, looking like he was deep in thought.

"Zero." I called him. His attention turned to me.

"Oh Astraea what brings you here?" he asked and faced me.

"I was going to say something." His forehead was wrinkled. He's probably wondering what I'm about to say.

Well, better late than never.

"Sure, what is it?"

I came closer to him so he could hear me better.

"Zero I like you, I really really do. only you make my heart beat. Every time I see you, you leave me breathless. I wouldn't have admitted it yet, I would have waited for my feelings to go away but I realized that our lives are short. and there is another reason why I want to admit, I will leave Zero, I will continue my studies in Canada. In the future, I hope we will meet again."

He stood there shocked by my words.

"Astraea I.....-" He didn't finish what he said when we heard someone yell.

"Fire!"

When I turned around, I saw that the fire was spreading throughout the school. Many screamed, panicked, and some rushed to get out.
