You're Driving Me Crazy

"UNUSUAL DAY"

YOU DRIVIN’ ME CRAZY

It was Sunday morning and it’s raining heavily. I can’t barely see my way back

home. When the old and weak man suddenly appear in front of me. I’m not sure if

it just my illusion but he was cover with blood. I didn’t think anything about that

time but to save the old man. When I supported his back, he gain consciousness.

He told me not to bring him to the hospital. So I don’t have choice. I bring

him to my small apartment and treated his wounded arm.

Due to weary situation, I fallen to deep sleep. I woke up in the morning and the

old man is gone. I was a little bit upset because he left without saying

anything.

By the way, I am Xianna Amore Cui. Third Year College at UP. The person who

supported my study is my aunt who is the Singapore. If you ask me where my

family is, they’re all dead, they leave me in this world when I was five years

old. It so hard growing up without your parents, I envy those who have parents

and siblings. I wish I had one. Wait I am crying.

1month later…

I sat the bench in front of our school, and I realize that, the old man I save

was quite familiar I don’t know where I see him. But it was annoying if you

think of it, I read some in ******* if you save someone there’s coming back at

you, don’t get me wrong. I didn’t expect for that old man to return me

something valuable. But..

Shit!

It’s 2:25 pm. I only have 5 minutes to run. Damn that old man.

“Hey what’s with you men, I almost hit my head in the rock”

“Sorry I’m in a hurry”

“Wait, are you from?”

“Bye, sorry again”

What a weird man. I feel that bad luck keep chasing me. But he’s cute. Focus self

you have 1 minute left.

Okay!

Late again.

“Amore! Don’t you have sense of time? You don’t have to attend my class today”

“But sir, it just 1 minute that I’ve miss the class”

“Okay take a sit. This is the last time”

“Thank you sir”

Time has gone, and our foundation day is near to come. The clubs and organizations

are busy arranging its’ set up. And I’m here under the tree chilling as if I’m

in another world.

“Hey!

Hey!

Is someone calling me?

“Amore!”

“Sorry ma’am I was just taking a nap”

“Taking a nap? Your classmates are busy preparing and here you are sleeping soundly! Go

to art club and ask if the program for exhibition is ready.”

“Okay ma’am I’m going now. Ah ma’am where can I find you to tell if they ready?”

“You

can go to my office, make sure that they’re done before and if not don’t find

me”

“Noted ma’am.”

“Amore”

“Yes ma’am”

“Give this to your adviser, if he ask who give it just tell my name”

“Ma’am, you like our adviser?”

“Stop that obvious question”

“I’ll go now ma’am”

Tsk.

It so annoying

Amore?

Can you lend me a hand?

I have something to do, okay. You guys can you stop ordering me around? I’m not

an errand girl okay!

Hi! Excuse me! Is this the art club?

Is it obvious? What are you doing here?

Is Sir Ethan here? I’m here to deliver this box from ma’am menthel

Next week it’s going to be a busy week again. The future is uncertain, the present

is complicated. The entrep department is just a chill course if you see it

physically, but for me it is a beginning to make a small step if you want to

achieve big. If I’m powerful enough, then I will know the reason behind the

death of my parents.

But first, let’s find the most perfect company for my internship.

(Phone is ringing)

"How many time I told you don't call me if it's not important? Justine please, I'm hanging up."

"Wait? I call you because I have a good news for you. The EDD Company was opening for the internship this

year."

"What? EDD Company? If I remember it correctly last year, they didn’t allow any internship

in their company. Did they eat something poisonous?" (Crazy smile)

(Laughing)

"Is this what you want right? This is your chance. Grab this opportunity. Tomorrow 11

AM meet me at the gate. I’m going with you, I want to see how big the company is."

(Excited feeling).

"Okay"

Amore has only one friend from childhood. This is his partner in crime. Samuel has a wealth background, some girls are fighting over him but the one he like is Amore who knows nothing about love.

"Hey! Are deaf? I call you many times"

"It’s you?"

"Don't you have eyes? I'm talking with someone. Why what do you want?"

"Tsk. The old man told me to give this to you"

"What is this? Old man?"

"The one you save last month, I think. He invited you to join the EDD Company. if you're free tomorrow you can go with me. 11 PM okay don't forget that"

"No thanks, I'm with my friend. Save your energy bye"

"Hey! Is that all?"

"My name is Amore not Hey understand keep that in your mind. And what else do you want me to say? Thank you? Not yet." (smirk)

"What do you mean with that "not yet"?"

"Goodbye okay. If you have something else to say here my phone number."

"I'm not asking your phone number okay"

"Your talking too much. Here 1 peso find someone to talk to." (Walk away)

(Halt)

"Wait! How do you know that I save someone?"

(Sigh with disbelief) "Finally you realize, are that dumb? How can that old man like someone who's is stupid?"

"I'm not stupid okay. Now tell me, how do you know?

Hey! Where are you going? Answer me you jerk!"
