0.2- Origin

-Dec 17-

I am currently outside of Mary Ann's house, 30 meters away so I do not materialize suddenly

I am panicking what should I do?!

"How can I talk to her if she doesn't know me?!"

It's 9 am, but I'm still outside. How can I do this!

will this day be wasted ...

They also have a Christmas break, right? Will she come out?

hayy... will she ever comeout...

and miraculously their door opened

and

Mary Ann's came out!

"Mom, I'm leaving. I just have something to buy at the SM "- Mary Ann

"Is it okay for you to go alone? without Janella?" - Mary Ann's mother

"I'm fine, mom. I just have something to buy and maybe some of my memories will come back if I do things all by myself."- Mary Ann

"As long as you don't stay up late okay" - Mary Ann's mother, with total care in her tone

"Yes, mom. Bye, love you." - Mary Ann

okay it's my chance, I will join her

and when I was about to accompany her, my body slowly materialized.

"RUDE!!!!"- Random Woman

"eeeww!!! GROSS!!! a man is walking in the street with no clothes!" - Gossip

The fuck!!! when I materialize I don't have any clothes to wear !!!!!

because of embarrassment, i quickly runs back!

I immediately ran 20meters away from Mary Ann and I became a ghost again.

"GRIM REAPER!!!"

with a mischievous smile, he appears suddenly from out of nowhere

"Why did you call me right away? Ohhh you want to go to the afterlife now?" - Grim Reaper

"No! when I materialize, I was naked! as in nude!!!"

from his eyes, I know now! he is power-tripping me!

"Yes, of course, I forgot to give this to you, when you wear these clothes even if you materialize the clothes will bring along"- Grim Reaper

"You should have told me right away eeee!!!"

"bah! sorry I forgot"- Grim Reaper

though he is saying sorry his mischievous smile never leaves his face!

I immediately took clothes and put it on and at the same time I chased Mary Ann

Fortunately, she has not gone far yet and she is just riding in a jeep.

That's right I will also take a jeep

The seat where both sides, and as if it was destined to sit next to her. She will see me, but she does not know me yet.

"Can you hand my payment?"- Mary Ann

(in Filipino culture, riding a jeepney and helping the other customer to hand their payment to the driver is one of the basic rules)

I immediately take it and handed it to the front

but suddenly I realized that I don't have any money!

The jeep is moving fast and my heart also does the same having the woman I love sitting next to me is like artificial heaven except if the driver busted me for not paying the ride, it will be hell!

We arrived at the terminal and like a thief, I went down immediately

the sorry driver doesn't know what happens, I'm broke as f*ck here

from afar I looked at the woman I love

but the driver suddenly shouts

"HEY!! 1 2 3 boy!!!- Driver

the good thing and I got away immediately

SM is just a walking distance from this terminal but I can also take a Jeep again but having luck 2x in a row is not real, so I just go the mall by commuting immediately

just a few minutes I also arrived at the mall

I immediately went to the CR to look in the mirror to make sure I look okay because I really want to introduce myself looking fresh.

but when I was in the mirror

"what the ... I don't have any reflection!

it feels like I am joking myself how can a ghost appear in the mirror! maybe except if it is haunted

I went back across the mall to wait for her to arrive, and lady luck is on my side!

she just got off the jeepney and from a distance of 20meters. I materialized again so I continued following the woman I love.

if you say that I'm a stalker, yes I'm proud to be my GF's stalker now.

She went to the national bookstore and then to the supermarket and then looked at the brand new phones as if she was buying but truth to be told she is just window shopping because she didn't buy anything

and she sat in the food court, people around her are murmuring and most of them are talking about her, I can't blame them, my girlfriend is too damn attractive.

This is my chance now!

slowly approach her, as if every step I took was a warning to let her know that I will leave her. I could not avoid that but this is what I choose, this time in front of the table where she was sitting

with the tense on my voice, I greet her

"Hi"

she suddenly raises one his eyebrow and asks

"Who are you?"- Mary Ann

"You can't recognize me? I'm John Carl."

her mood suddenly turns bad! from raising his eyebrow it turns to furrow his forehead!

"I don't remember."

"Is that so? you don't remember me? I'm your ex."

"Ex? sorry I have memories that I don't remember."- Mary Ann

"Amnesia?"

luckily her mood suddenly lights up and her tone becomes approachable

"Yes, they told me its Lacunar Amnesia."- Mary Ann, she plays her hair while answering

"Really, how are you?"

"I'm okay."- Mary Ann

"Can I sit here?"

"Sure."- Mary Ann

with brimming confidence in my first move, I immediately sit in front of her

"Sorry, I don't really remember you. These last 2yrs are the ones I can't remember so I'm sorry." - Mary Ann

"It's okay want some chat?"

"Okay, maybe some of my memories will come back"-Mary Ann, she just smiles slightly and her tense shoulder suddenly loose

because of that we talk non stop, it feels only like we've talked for a few minutes, I told her how I met her even though she could hardly believe I still told the story.

"Are there really people like that near my home?" - Mary Ann

"Yes, there are perverts who are always catcalling you."

"I really can't remember, I have to be careful."- Mary Ann, she trembles in fear because of her sudden discovery

"Yes, you should not trust the people around you too much."

after my remarks, she suddenly furrowed his forehead and ask

"Shouldn't I trust you too?" - Mary Ann

it looks like a drop a wrong bomb!

"Hey, I'm different, remember I'm your ex okay hahahah"

she looks at me with his curious eyes and suddenly smiles at me

Why every time I tell her that I am her ex I feel like there are needles piercing my heart, I don't want to be your ex...

Time passed, it seemed like we were just talking merrily until 4 pm

she checks the time and surprised

"Uh, John Carl sorry I need to go home" - Mary Ann, she immediately gathers her stuff and stands

"Is that so? Thank you for your time. 'm happy to talk to you again"

"Me too. Let's talk again next time, bye!"- Mary Ann

and Mary Ann is slowly moving away from me and I can only see her back. I want to chase her. I want to tell her the truth. I do not want to leave her ...

and when I was about to chase her, she suddenly turned to me and waved her hand, which means she's saying goodbye to me again.

and at that time I saw her smile again, the smile that gave life to my sluggish and boring life. As a result, my decision to continue this setup became more resolute.

She didn't know that from a distance of more than 20 meters. I just followed her and watched her go home and that's it, the end of the 1st day.

Dec 18-

I stayed in Mary Ann's room again because it was early in the morning and my body had not materialized yet. I can still watch her while she was asleep.

While staring at her, I was thinking again of a new plan on how I can talk to her again? How can I get her out?

without any idea coming to my mind, I just click my tongue and let my luck to takes place

Near 6 am. I need to leave, maybe I will visit mama first and I will come back later

and that's what I did. I visited my mom first and I saw her cleaning the house and wiping my photo very carefully.

"I love you so much, mom."

I hope she feels what I said after that I left again

-but John Carl did not know that his Mama heard it and looked in his direction but found nothing-

9 am. I arrived at Mary Ann's house and saw Janella at their doorstep

she seemed to be inviting her around

I keep an eye to the house of my GF

Later on, they went out the door at the same time and it looks like they were going somewhere, I immediately followed them secretly. They did not know that from a distance, I was watching them.

They went to the people's park

"What are they going to do here?"

I stayed for 20 meters so that no one could see me and I saw that they meet up with their high school friends. They were laughing but I didn't know what they were talking about, I was just waiting for the timing.

They all got up and walked towards the ride

"Wait, where are they going?"

from a distance, I saw one of their classmates take the bus and they immediately go and left me in the park.

I was shocked and don't know what to do!

"oh no!!!"

I immediately followed but the bus was really faster than me even though I was passing through the walls

I immediately think and I decided to take a risk and go to sm north first in case they go there

like a sprinting cheetah, I pass through walls by walls until the mall was within my sight

I arrived at SM North first and a bus appears in the mall also

luckily when I arrived there I saw them getting off the bus

I hit the jackpot!

"WWOOOOO!!! my guess is correct."

and again I followed Mary Ann and I waited for the timing for her to be alone 

and approach her

They had a good time in SM north, they sang, they also played and there was even a photo booth while I was still waiting for the timing.

"Bestie, I'll just go to cr wait for me."- Mary Ann

"I'll go with you."- Janella, her tone was worrying and planning stand

"No, it's okay." - Mary Ann, as she waves her both hands

"Okay go ahead just hurry up" - Janella

This is my chance!! like a thief, I waited for Mary Ann to come out of the cr

I played mysterious mode and just stands on the side

"John Carl?"- Mary Ann

"Hey! Mary Ann you're also here. Whom are you with?"

"My high school friends, how about you?"- Mary Ann

"I'm alone, just looking around."

"Do you want to come with us?" - Mary Ann

"No need, I don't want to disturb you and your friends."

"It's okay, let's wait, Janella's here" - Mary Ann

suddenly from out of nowhere, Janella followed her!

"Bestie, I followed you because I was worried."- Janella

my God!! I immediately run because Janella might see me

"Who are you talking to bestie?" - Janella

"Why did he run suddenly? ah no, go ahead bestie let's go back to them." - Mary Ann

ha .... ha ... ha ... even though I'm dead I was still running out of breath. Janella almost saw me, I promise that I will haunt you someday!

and now I go back to the beginning, stalk her all day.

As I follow them, I was surprised that Mary Ann will go home alone, won't Janella go with her? so it's my chance now

I immediately approached her while she was waiting for the bus

"Hey, Mary Ann are you going home too?"

"Carl, why did you suddenly leave earlier?"- Mary Ann, she frowns and looks at me intently

"I-I have a call of nature so I run."

"Uh.... okay..."- Mary Ann, with a few glinting eyes, she let the topic

It looks like she was uncomfortable

"Wait, are you with someone?"

"No, I'll go home first. My bestie went somewhere else" - Mary Ann, in her face can be seen a sad reaction

because of this, I've taken the chance to talk to her again

"Can I join you?"

"Sure, where are you heading?"- Mary Ann

"Brgy. Gen. T."

"Okay, let's go."- Mary Ann

while we were waiting for the bus, we had talked to kill time, and I also had a story of what I knew about her

until we get on the bus

the moment is perfect except I don't have any money again!!

God! how can I pay this ride?!

"Sir, location?" - Conductor

"Uhm... karuhatan..."

"25php Maam"- Conductor

Fuck!! This is it!! what should I do!!

"Here sir, 50 pesos to Brgy. Karuhatan."- Mary Ann

like an angel and Mary Ann saved me from embarrassment

"Hey, thank you. I was about to pay."

"It's okay, you can pay for the ride in the jeepney."- Mary Ann

"Sure"

I have the courage but I still don't have the money how can I pay in the jeep!

while we were talking

someone was stabbing my ass in the chair I did not know what is it. I slowly took what it was but the driver suddenly brakes loudly and my face sank into the front seat.

"Ouch!!"

"What are you doing, Carl?"- Mary Ann

I looked around and I was the only one who was acting weird in the chair while my face was a slam in front of me,

I'm embarrassed !!

but I got what was in my chair and when I looked at it it looked like a miracle, it was a piece of paper that was crushed, but it was not ordinary paper but it was 200 pesos !!!

"Lord, thank you!"

"Carl, what is that?"- Mary Ann

"Uh a a a- I said we're almost near"

"Yeah, can you tell me more about I was doing last yr" - Mary Ann

"okay so..."

On our whole trip to the jeep, I told her things that I knew until we realized we're already in the front of her house

"Carl, we're here. Thank you."- Mary Ann

"It's nothing, till next time."

"Okay, bye!"- Mary Ann
