It was an ordinary day. A program at school was about to begin so cadet trainees were urging students to attend the event.

I’m not feeling well. I feel like throwing up but I don’t want to have a nasty taste on my mouth that’s why I tried with all my might not to vomit.

A friend is worried about my condition so she decided not to attend the program and stayed with me in our classroom which happened to be in the fourth floor. She was so energetic telling me about the recent episode of Dawson’s Creek. We both love the sitcom and we never fail to discuss every episode while majority of our girl classmates are talking about boys and boys are talking about just anything.

I felt the content of my stomach rushed through my throat and I know that I can’t hold it anymore. I ran to the CR but it was quite far from our room. I consider myself lucky for reaching a trash can before spluttering whatever it is that has to be thrown up.

My friend ran after me and she was rubbing my back while I was throwing up. After a few seconds, two medics went to my aid. They probably heard me puking. Oh that’s so embarrassing.

After my puking escapades, the two medics brought me to the clinic and made me lie down on the bed. They asked me a few questions and made me rest for a while.

The talkative guy, who happens to be called Roy, urged his companion, San Diego (Sorry, I only remembered his last name), to sing. This according to him will make me feel better. Unexpectedly, the guy did sing. He sang ‘King and Queen of Hearts’. Hehe. His singing was not that bad but Roy joked that it made me feel even worse. He even told him that he’ll show how the real singing should sound.

.. And he sang.. He has a great voice. I couldn’t believe it at first. My impression of him was a snob and a bad boy who doesn’t know how to smile and no way that incredible voice was to be of the guy I imagined him to be.

But I was wrong. He’s sweet, gentle, and caring. And in that clinic, I developed a crush on him.

^_^

He sang Bobby Caldwell’s ‘Heart of Mine’. And for a long time.. until now.. I love that song. I felt his song. During those times in the clinic, I feel like I was being serenaded. It was a wonderful feeling!

Heart of mine,
How can you keep from dying
Stop reminiscin’, who is she kissing
Heart of mine,
Oh what’s the use in tryin’
No one can mend you now

I think he was sad that time but I like the way he sang. It was as if he owns the song. It was beautiful!

I learned that he has two siblings. He’s the youngest in the family and his dream was to be a pilot.

I started feeling better after quite a while and I hate it when time flies really fast. Soon, the morning class concluded, he advised me to go home and take a rest. We chatted more and then he made me take some medicines.

Once I got home, I had my lunch and took a nap. I woke up feeling cold and my mom just found out that I have a high fever. I told her that I spent the rest of the morning in the clinic but never mentioned Roy. I was never open to her about this kind of things. Sorry Mom!

My condition got worse in the evening. I tried to just sleep, not liking the feeling of being sick. And that night I dreamt of him!

^_^

Come back again. I have to sleep now but there’s part two!
