Part XIII

"Allie”

Things ended with Peach around September and I moved on sometime around November. It was all thanks to Allie. (Remember?) I asked for her number during the Prom in February. She shared a table with some of the OBLP peeps and I got to know some of them through my friend, Janine. Janine was this girl from OBLP that I met through Yahoo! Messenger, hours before Christmas 2009. I liked her at first but I realized she was out of my league so we stayed friends. That's how I got to talk to Allie so easily. But even after that, we exchanged a text only once. She then added me on Facebook and after a few months, for the first time, I chatted her. By that time she was already single.

Anyway, I was doing this joke on Diether. Diether was the son of a very famous Filipino actor and host, and he was a new student at my school. We became friends because he lived near my house. (He is actually Peach's neighbor.) We went home together on many occasions and we would talk about him finding a girl and I said I would help him look for one. Crazy. I asked Allie if she was interested in Diether. She declined and it was funny because it wasn't really common to ask her on Facebook whether she liked a guy who she had never met before. I started talking to her a lot during that month and we became really close. Her friends started to know who I was because she kept telling them about me. I had friends in OBLP because I was like a crazy person who just kept meeting people everyday, even though they were in LP and I was in GH. By that time, everyone who knew Allie, knew me. We spent a lot of time texting and chatting. Then we realized we already had feelings for each other.
