"Are you feeling better?" Royal asked as we're inside his room. I finished drinking a glass of water that he gave me then placed it on his bedside table and nodded as a response.
"Thank you so much, fratello. Without you, I don't know what to do with my life."
"Why? What happened?" He asked as he sat beside me.
I heaved a heavy sigh and looked down. Even if he's doing nothing, my heart raced on its own like I ran for a mile.
"They're still blaming me for Omega's death." I started and looked up. "It was an accident. But mom insisted I was irresponsible."
"I'm sorry about that." He said and I turned to him with confusion written on my face. "I'm sorry if I can nothing to change their minds."
"It's okay," I replied with a heavy breath. "As long as I can count on you, I'll be fine no matter how tough life is."
He sighed and captured my hands and I loo
As the boys showed up in front of us, Janrez gave them those vacant chairs from the other table and I whined silently. I didn't like the boys' presence. I just hated them. They reminded me of Gero.And speaking of Gero, I saw him with Saera inside the campus and I must say, Saera's the lucky one to have Gero. But if I would have Royal, I could be luckier than her."What made you all draw your fatasses here?" I asked in annoyed manner."We're just here to relax." Lars replied bluntly and I rolled my eyes because he had monolid eyes, it reminded me of Gero's."Graduation day will come soon," TJ announced. "And probably we'll part our ways. I heard you're moving to Italy, Alpha?" He turned to me with his nosy eyes."Yes. And I can't wait for it."He nodded at my response and turned to Trixie, who's currently eating her piece of cake."Valentine's Day is coming so soon. The head of school announced we will be having a party this coming Fr
Couples of days had passed and the heart's day was just around the corner. Everyone was so busy decorating the campus with the theme of love. Our section was assigned to make a marriage booth. It would be used during our valentines party excluded the prom because it would be by next week."Ugh! I'm so hungry." Angelika whined as she drooled over a box of pizza and in a second, she grabbed one slice of pizza and eat it whole heartily."You're not hungry, are you?" Trixie scoffed and shook her head in disbelief.Today was Saturday but we had to be here inside the campus just to finish the said marriage booth."Obvious, isn't it?" Angelika scoffed back and rolled her eyes while Trixie flashed a teasing smile."I don't know if marriage booth is fun," Janrez suddenly spoke up and took a piece of pizza and suspended it in the air. "Like, we'll witness the couples exchanging their vows and after that, they'll sign a contract which will corrobate the fact
Later that night, we changed our outfits into a tank top, sweat jacket, ripped black jeans and a pair of shoes. Finally he told me where to go and I laughed because it's only in the park located at the center of this subdivision.Seriously, huh?"I just wanna have a walk with you tonight," he said as I asked him why we had to go to the park. "Talk few stuff about us... about how you see your life in the future."It was good to know that he wanted to know what was going on with my mind 'cause honestly, it would explode in any second because of my wild imaginations."I'm ready to go," I announced as I sat down on his soft sofa while he was busy of something."Alright," he said and faced me. He scanned my whole body and just by looking at his eyes, I knew he wanted to pinch me or something nastier than it."Okay," I stood up and ran towards him. He gladly accepted my body and
After I did my assignments, I went up to my room and locked myself inside. Something's bothering me. I didn't know what was it. I felt like I didn't want to see him. I felt ike I could notnhandle his presence.I took a deep breath and exhaled heavily. My chest was tightening. My heart was throbbing inside its cage and my feet were wobbling for some unknown reason.I knocked off from my trance when someone knocked on my door. I fidgeted as I ran towards the door to open it for someone. And when I opened the door, a familiar face came into view."Nanny," I called out under my breath, feeling relieved."Why? Are you expecting someone?" She asked as she peeked inside."None," I sighed in relief and whirled around to go back to my bed and I felt her following me."Why aren't you dressed up? Aren't you coming over?"I frowned in sadness as I sat beside my bed and she walked towards me while wandering her eyes around."I'm... just tir
After that moment, I decided to excuse myself because I could no longer endure the pain. I realized how awful I was for falling in love with someone who treated me no one but a younger sister. I should have known about it.I locked myself inside the vacant cubicle and cried my heart out. I was so fucked up and I didn't know how to get up.If only I knew it was an engagement party, I shouldn't have shown up here even if my parents would kill me 'cause how did it differ from seeing Royal with Ria? The pain was killing me slowly.I held my chest as I felt it tightening. No matter how hard I tried to calm myself, I always failed miserably. Tears streamrd down like a river and all I could do was to go with the flows.How I wished this night would end. That pain wouldn't be felt no more 'cause I sucked in moving on. It'd years before I could finally say that everything was over. That what we had before would always remain in the past 'cause it had been over. It
Few years ago...Today was Monday and I didn't know what bothered me so much. I was inside my room, waiting for Desirque's arrival. I didn't know what's taking her so long to show up here. I guessed it's all about Ago again. I hoped she's fine."Where is Ms. Luna?" Asked by our English teacher. She's our first subject teacher for morning session.Everyone turned to me with their nosy eyes and I looked at them one by one then shrugged, brushing the topic off."Maybe... she's just late." I explained. But I knew they wouldn't believe me. So I looked down and brush everything off.After the class, I decided to visit Desirque. I was afraid she's dead now because of Ago. Ago's such a cruel creature.As I was on my way to Desirque's house, I spotted a familiar car and my heart abruptly hammered inside my chest 'cause I believed no one owned it but Royal. And as I reached my d
"You can stay in your Aunt Graciana for awhile while we're out of town." Mom informed me.Today is Saturday. We're having our breakfast together, which is very new to me. Usually they don't join me with my breakfast. So it's really surprising. And now, they're telling me to stay in Aunt Graciana's house because they'll be off to other country. In Italy, specifically. Maybe they'll visit grandmother and I heard mom has a new exhibition of her new masterpieces."Until when?" I asked, trying to sound okay.Honestly, I want them to stay. I don't want them to leave me but who am I kidding? I cannot give them reasons to stay. They might just bring up the topic about Omega's death. And I'm so tired of proving to them that it was just an accident. Who would believe in me? No one."We don't know." Dad replied in his baritone voice. "We'll visit your grandma as well.""Okay," I nodded as a response.
"Where will I drop you?" Asked Riley after few minutes of walking around."Maybe you can take me to my room. I assumed my friends are there, waiting for me. They might kill me once I'll show up in front of them." I chuckled."Okay. That's a little bit nasty." Then he chuckled at his last word."Yeah, sort of. But that's what I love the most." I smiled as I could feel my heart fluttering."Like what?" He asked and stood in front of me and I looked up.He was taller than me. That's all I could say. I loved his scents, his smiles and his stance. He looked mature enough and gentleman. He had little mole on his cheeks and endpoint of his right brow, stubbles between his nose and lips."I prefer an honest man. Like you know, his words may hurt me but I know he's telling me the truth."That was all I ever wanted. I wantrd someone to tell me the truth even if it w
