TAKE MY HAND

---TAKE MY HAND--- the meeting

2:30 in the afternoon, sitting again in one of the bench in school, with a pocket book in her hands is just an ordinary day for Berlie. An ordinary day that may turn into something taht she herself can hardly believe in.

take my hand (take my hand)
take my whole life too (life too)
for i can't help falling in love with you...

- Berlie was ought to stop singing when she heard someone else voice, like a guy singing with him.

wise men say only fools rush in
but I, I can't, I can't help Falling in Love (falling in love)with you(with you)

- Berlie was shocked when she saw a guy with a blue tshirt holding a ball in his right hand was singing in front of him. She can't hardly move, she was freeze with his cold voice.

Guy: Hi! I like that song.
- Berlie remains quiet. She was still overwhelmed with what happen.
Guy: Am...it's a nice song..Ammm... I hear you singing, I'm sorry if I'd bothered you. I didn't mean it. It's my fault, I'm sorry.
Berlie: No! I mean it's okay.( turns some pages in her pocket book and acts as if she is busy reading something).
Guy: oh! can i sit beside u?
Berlie: yeah, sure
Guy: By the way I'm Paul, Paolo O''Neal , in real life, but my friends used to call me Paul.
Berlie: Yeah I know.
Paul: What???
Berlie: I mean...ammmm, what a nice name. (my gosh, come on Berlie calm down,.that line keeps on repeating in Berlie's mind.)
Paul: oh thank you. Amm, you're Berlie, right?
Berlie: Yeah! I'm Berlie, Kimberly Jones, but I love to be called Berlie.
Paul: Well, what a lovely name, for a lovely girl like you.
Berlie: Thank you.

- Paul is about to say something when his friend Rammy calls him and told him that they need to go, their basketball game is about to start. A sweet smile and cute good byes ends their conversation. But hey! it wasn't the end, it is just a beginning of their friendship, a friendship that may turn into lovers? MAY BE SOMEDAY...

to be continue....




---TAKE MY HAND--- the hidden admiration


Things really happen so fast, We will never know what will happen next, who would have thought that a simple "hi" may be a beginning of a new tomorrow.

Sitting in a nearby bench, eating and laughing inside jokes and talking, and talking anything under the sun became a routine and a habit of both Paul and Berlie


Paul: so you really love singing?
Berlie: yeah it's fun! Believe me, well I'm a choir member in school. And how about you? why do you love playing basketball?
Paul: I don't know!
Berlie: you don't know? What an amazing answer
Paul: well, it's a male's game, right?
You rarely can see girls playing basketball.
Berlie: haha...yeah, well you do have a point.
Paul: You know what? I am really so curious, why do you all girls love singing and reading those pocket books?
Berlie: why? is there anything wrong with that?
Paul: I am just wndering why, is it wrong to be curious?
Berlie: well, to answer your question, NOPE, its not wrong to be curious.
Paul: what about my questions about those pocket books?
Berlie: you are really so curious, aren't you?
Paul: I've said it a million times, so answer me now.
Berlie: okay, okay, take it easy
Well i guess, it's because we wanted to feel the emotions that regular life does not offer.
Paul: Oh! so tell me about the stories you've read.
Berlie: Well, like fairytales, a girl who met the man of his dream, a poor princess rescued by his prince, or a girl who fall in love with his best friend or...
Paul: OR A GUY, SOMEONE LIKE ME, FALL IN LOVE TO A GIRL, SOMEONE LIKE YOU?

Berlie was stunt with what she heard from Paul ( did i hear it right? is he falling for me? or am i just the one thinking of it? )

Paul moves closer and closer to Berlie. He stares at her so deeply and smiles.

Paul: What if i say... I LIKE YOU?
YOU KNOW WHAT...I REALLY DO!


take my hand (take my hand)
take my whole life too (life too)
for I can't help falling in love with you...

wise men say only fools rush in
but I, I can't, I can't help Falling in Love (falling in love) with you (with you)
