My Lost Star Who says gentlemen are extinct? Yes, they are endangered but some of them still exist. I met him during my internship at a well-known company. My supervisor introduced us to each other. He was also an intern but from a different department. Our first meeting was kind of awkward because Im a socially awkward person most of the time especially with people like him. Hes tall (6 foot) and is good looking. On the other hand, Im small and plain looking. One day during lunch, I was shocked to find out that he was going to eat with us (its usually just my supervisor and me). I was so nervous. Anyway, when we were in line at the canteen, I asked the lady at the counter for some tissue and was disappointed when she said that they ran out of them. Upon getting our food, we made way to a table. He excused himself for a while leaving me wondering if he forgot something. I shrugged and proceeded to grab a spoon and fork from the glass (btw, he got four of each for all of us including our supervisors). Finally, he came back with none other than a couple of tissue paper all the way from his department (we do not receive allowances for OJT in this company, only a free roll of tissue paper every month.) He handed it over to me and I said thanks. This was the first time we talked and I instantly liked him. (I dont know about you guys, but this is the first time that I met a guy who is so thoughtful. Hes definitely a keeper.) The following day was our christmas party. I arrived late since I had a class on that day and FEU was quite far from the company. A couple of girls from another department asked me to sit beside them. I was thankful since all the people in my department were so busy with the party. I turned to my right and saw that he was sitting beside me. So I poked him on the arm and asked why he left me yesterday (I learned that we live in the same municipality and we agreed that we should go home together). We argued a little but laughed about it in the end. We talked and talked to the point that we didnt pay attention to the party and just teased and laughed at each other. I admit that without him there, I wouldnt enjoy that sorry excuse of a party. Finally, we left the party to go home. On the way, he paid my fare and I was caught off guard again because why would he do that? I certainly had my own money and we were just new friends. I let it go and was not expecting to be shocked again when he suddenly said, Hatid na kita. I was like, BAKIT?! in a very loud voice that he told me to calm down. I zipped my mouth but I was secretly happy. him in. He hesitated at first but still complied. I introduced him to my mom and brother, offered him a glass of water and my mother talked to him about casual things. You see, I have the best mom in the whole world. She didnt think of any malice when I brought a guy home for the first time. She only thought of us as friends, which is true. A few days after, we saw each other again. When I passed by his department, I smiled at him and was about to walk away when he asked me if we could go home together again. I said yes and asked him to see me in my department after hes done. I walked away smiling like an idiot. 5 pm came and he did fetch me. We had a little adventure and got lost because of him but I just laughed about the whole scenario. We laughed and teased each other again. He paid my fare again and I was refusing because its the second time already. He still insisted so I had no choice. In the middle of the ride, I was somewhat insulted about his teasing that I ignored him. He was apologizing so much that he offered to accompany me home again but I totally refused. I got off the jeep smiling and waving at him probably for the last time. Why? Because I was starting to fall for him and I didnt want to get hurt especially when I found out later on that he was already in love with somebody else. The next time we saw each other, I didnt smile at him, I didnt even look at him as if he wasnt existing. I totally ignored him. Im so sorry my lost star. I will definitely miss our talks, laughs, your teasing, your smile, your smell, everything about you, but Im not a masochist; I cant pretend to be your friend when Im hurting because you cant reciprocate my feelings. Im staying away so these feelings wont grow any longer than necessary. I hope youre happy with her. Shes so blessed to have you. Take good care of her. I hope you both prove to everyone that forever exists. *Title reference: Lost Stars by Adam Levine (he was singing this song once but hes not a good singer) Keira Knightley 2011 IAS
