Ch. 2Chapter 2- Denver’s eyes inspired me to win the contest


Let the way to end, thinking about Kaye, since I don’t have sufficient time to keep on searching for her. I made up my mind to enjoy my studies in the University, believing that I am running for flying color, which I have always wished to happen in my life. After a few days, Esiel Cabrera, one of my amazing professors, urged me to visit his office, talking about the incoming contest, which I felt scared to think about.

While Kaye, I was not expected to be one of the representatives for the contest. Believing that I had difficulty being a trained type of person before considering that competition. However, the professors believed my talents, which hanged in my hands, even if I shook my arms to the sea.
The moment I entered the classroom where the contestants took the challenge. I felt so appalled about that matter, knowing that my eyes were not functioning well, except for the giant letters.

When I began reading the text, I fell down in tears on the paper, since I could not read the text well. I weep like a wolf beside my contestants, who read the literary text seriously. I thought I was not qualified, since I have not started reading and answering the test. In a slow voice,” would I leave here?” Meanwhile, my tears fell down to my desk, which had slightly found the ravishing man, who broke her eyeglass before. The moment I glanced at his eyes. I felt mad at his face, which destroyed my day. So, I never mind his face, which totally destroyed my day, gazing at the book.
It's been an hour of crying, since I could not view the text. So, I approached Kevinlee, the proctor during the literary contest. Letting him know declined it, while my eyes fell down the tears, which threw the things around the globe. But the proctor never allowed me to do that. So, he offered himself to use his eyeglass, however my eyes were still blind reading the text. That day, I didn’t know what to do. The moment I saw Denver sat on his chair, my heart fill with honey to finish it.

I returned the eyeglass to my professor, who allowed me to use it sincerely. Back then, I started gazing at the text, even if I could not see the text clearly. A soft shadow clutched at my arms filled, with a cloying voice,” do you want to borrow my eyeglass?” I stared at him with an apple smile. And then he furthered said,” you can try it, miss, maybe you like it.” The moment I heard his tantalizing voice, I could not explain how my cell dribbled. I wanted to let him know about it, however I felt shy. Without hesitation, I tried to wear his eyeglass, which allowed me, viewing the text powerfully. The time I wore his silver eyeglass, the more I imagined how cloying his heart was. Indeed my cell and veins endlessly quaked while gazing at the text.

I let him know,” thanks Denver, would you still use it?” I asked him with a soft voice, even if I felt furious to think about him. And Denver replied,” no, I just bought it for you,” then I smiled at her,” is it okay now?” I asked her, so that I could pay for the damaged glass instead. The moment I saw it, I objectively saw that Kaye had a secret to me.
Kaye, I stared at him while thinking about it,” no, you could not pay for it. I loved the eyeglasses,” I said to him with a stern face, while gazing at him. I utilized his eyeglass for the contest.
While Denver returned back to his chair. His mind endlessly thought about the girl why Kaye could view the object, as she wore it. His mind brimmed with doubts about her, so he did not take the contest seriously. After a few minutes, Kaye submitted her written works to the proctor, without putting her mind about the aftermath.
Kaye and Denver

Before I left the room, I approached Denver with a congenial face, to return the eyeglass. Having my eyeglasses removed from my silver eyes, it’s indeed miserable. But the moment I shared at his tantalizing hands,” here’s your eyeglass, Denver, thanks for letting me wear it,” I said to him with a stern face, which was opposite to my special feelings for him.

I saw her saccharine face, which completed my day, though I was not satisfied with what I did in the contest. But seeing her smile, which motivated me to follow the precious dream, which I have been dreaming for. And I replied to her,” it’s okay, Kaye, at least you have enjoyed the contest, good luck to both of us.” And then, I shook her hands with full sincerity while I stared at her lullaby eyes.
To end the conversation, I went back to my car full of confidence, which made me confident to ask, why Kaye kept on declining the amount I wanted to pay for her. While Kaye left the room full of misery to contemplate about him. The more the guy faded to her eyes, the more to fall in love with his irresistible shadow.

One day, I felt ecstatic to report in the school, where I met my classmates. It was so dejected to know that Denver, I never won the contest. Though I gave the best that I could answering the test. My professors and classmates never believed what had happened in the contest. After revealing the truth, I kept on assisting Kaye, who could not view the object without my eyeglass. All of them bullied the girl, who was supposed to be the loser in the contest. On the other hand, Kaye, I ran her feet to the sky to meet the ravishing guy, who helped me to see the objects. However, the moment I saw the post on Instagram and Facebook. I noticed the bullying of the other students, who never believed my strengths. Evidently, they kept on insisting that Denver deserved more than me. Knowing the fact, I felt downcast to know that, especially when Denver supported his classmates, who pulled my presence to the inferno.

I lay down on my bed while I read Denver’s comment on social media, which made me get enraged at him for not being transparent. So, I sent a message to him,” letting you know, I feel down in the dumps after knowing that you bullied me. I wanted to let you know something about you. But you put my mind on inferno, do you think I am a human or not?” Then, I fell down my tears while looking at him in the mirror. On the other hand, Denver, I never had a plan to go back to my studies in the University after knowing the comments of my classmates. It's the first time I encountered this terrible feeling, which totally put my heart to the dimmed zoo, where I ended my life.

It's been a week, I did not visit the school. Even though my professors and classmates urged me to be there, from elementary to tertiary. I never had encountered such a failure. So, I felt furious at Kaye, but I felt pity for her.
To end my stress, I went back to the hotel where I met Araiza, my ex-girlfriend and spent time with her. I never had found anything special about her. But I wanted to end my stress, so I tried to let her know how precious my night was to have her in my arms.

The moment Araiza, I saw Denver’s face, which tempted my silver heart to accept him. Believing that he’s still single, one night accepted Denver’s feelings, even if I did not know his background. It was a beautiful night meeting together in the hotel, where they continued their honeyed relationship. That night, Denver knew that Araiza studied at Ateneo University. So, he made up his mind to transfer as well, just to have an inspiration, and forget his experience from the University of Mindanao.

It's been a month of having an intimate relationship with Araiza, who totally showed her feelings to me. I took it positively, to have an astounding day with her. The moment I met her in the University, the more I became productive. In contrast, Kaye, I familiarized the faces of the students at Ateneo University, along with the man, who bullied me on social media. Couldn’t deny, I was still infatuated by his tantalizing face, however my hatred for him was still alive in my heart. I could not forgive him, since it’s too dreadful in my heart and mind.

After a few days, I saw Denver with a lovely girl, who had a sweet moment outside the University. Both of them were taking their snacks. As far as I noticed, Denver indeed gave his sweet treatment to her. That time, I wanted to feel that from him, yet I could not heal my terrible feelings from him. What I only imagined how precious his face was. I wanted to look forward to my life, without thinking about him, but I don’t know how to forget him. Believing that I gave my hidden feelings secretly for him.

I could not deny, I felt green-eyed monster seeing Denver and Araiza had a precious relationship in the University. That turned me to be crazy,” will I go back to my previous school, to forget him? Why did I meet him again?” Honestly speaking, I wanted to stop thinking about the man, who never had time for me, but it’s not my fault to think about him.
One day, I went to the library at Ateneo University, reading some romantic stories, which made me forget my feelings for him. It took eight hours reading those novels, which motivated me to write a story for him. Like my arms trembled while reading the lines, which totally attached my feelings for him.

When the librarian told me, “excuse me ma’am, it’s already 5:00pm, it’s time to go home. "While knowing that I felt ashamed to reply,” no worries ma’am, I am sorry for that.” With silence, I left in the library. I wanted to get back the story that I wrote for Denver. However, the library was closed,” oh, my God, what if someone would know it.” I kept on contemplating what may have happened the next day.

One beautiful morning, I went back to the library, just to get the story from the table, I left. However, I saw Denver, who occupied the table, where I wrote a romantic story for him. I wanted to approach him, but my heart felt scared. What may be his response,” did he find my romantic story for him?.” I wanted to ask him, but my heart jumped down like the horse on the land. So, I made up my mind to leave the library, while imagining how ravishing the man was. I could not imagine how beautiful the day was. As I looked at his enticing smile and precious neck, which made me put my entire life for him.

Do you think Denver finds Kaye’s story?
