The Last Cinderella
Lorien Daniel is a fan of any celebrity: bands, actors, singers. You name it. But just like fate, she met the pride of her town, a famous band: Zenith, at Kofibucks where she would often go for coffee and some relaxation. Who would have thought they'd be there, too?
Over time, Lorien and the boys of Zenith become good friends. She had found love, too, which really did not surprise her. But the members of the band are three brothers... and two of them had fallen for her. From friends to lovers to rivals... who among of the two brothers, is Lorien's happily ever after?

Chapter: Chapter 52: UniverseIt has been two weeks since the last time Tybalt and I have seen each other. Although he's sending me texts, calling me.. none of those can ever compare if I see him. I really miss him. He even shows up to my dreams sometimes at night, but the situation there is not much any different than what we have now in reality— Tybalt and I cannot be together. The dreams would always end in him, walking away from me. It scares me so much.. as much as I don't want to think about it, but what if Tybalt really chooses to leave me? I am aware of how much difficult and hard this is, not just for me but for the both of us. Thanks to these people chasing me around, we cannot meet in secret. Plus, I always had to call Milo whenever I leave my home, because that's what Tybalt told me. I wonder if Milo is irritated with me, for always dragging him along. Also, the articles that were going around the internet about me and Milo were all taken down. It is all thanks to the power of their father. I am gratef

Chapter: Chapter 51: MiloFirst thing I saw this morning was a text message from Lorien— my fianceé. I could not help but feel giddy and excited inside. It had been such a while since she had sent me a text. Hi Mi. I know it is still too early and you're sleeping, but could you drive me to school today? I'm sorry to ask you but I do not feel safe outside. A bunch of reporters had camped outside of my house.My eyes widen in shock. These people really... I never imagined them doing this to Lorien. This could be because of me. If only my father hadn't broadcasted to the world my proposal to her that night, this wouldn't happen. Lorien could still live the same way her life had always been. I feel guilty. And I truly hate the fact that I am happy that she's asking for my help.. she cannot be seen in the public with Tybalt, or else that will cause a huge scene. Lorien could get in trouble if they get caught meeting in secret. This is why she is turning to me.. I don't hate it. It makes me happy but hey, I am just

Chapter: Chapter 50: Wait For Me"Hello?" It is four-twenty in the morning. I decided to call my 'fiancé' to ask for his help. If his idea ever works, then I would be free from this arrangement as early as possible. My dad is really wrong for wanting to control my life and do everything in his way. Milo is on the other end, I am not surprised to know that he is still awake at this hour. "Can you help me?" "Anything, babe. What is it?" "Let's end this arrangement, Mi. I want to go back to your brother.. please.." There was silence, for a moment I thought he had ended the call but no. I could hear him breathing. That must have hurt him.. he just confessed that he still has feelings for me and here I am, begging him to help me get back in the arms of another man — his brother. "Tybalt had requested for you to stay as my fianceé, didn't he?" That is right.. I nearly forgot about what Tybalt has asked of me. I really don't get it though, why do I have to stay as his brother's fiancé while he finds for a way to break

Chapter: Chapter 49: Where Has My Daddy Gone?The door clicks behind me as I get my shoes off, finding my mother seated on the sofa. My dry throat craves for water, Mom notices me walking around the room. "You're back a little late, honey. Where have you been?" "Oh.. just stopped by, you know, somewhere. I wanted to take some air." My feet run to the stairs but mother stopped me by asking a question. "Have you heard from your teacher?" "How you called into my school to say you're dropping me out?""Lorien..""Mother, do you realize what you guys are doing? You are basically taking away my life. Is this what you think is the best for me?" "I've tried talking it out with your father, sweetheart, but he just never listens.. you know how he is.." "Mom, couldn't you try harder? Please.. I don't want to get to the point where I'm gonna think it was best when he wasn't here." ***The sound of my alarm woke me up, only to get reminded of the fact that I am now a drop out and will soon begin the life of a homeschooled student.

Chapter: Chapter 48: Request"Daniel, Mr. Seo is asking for you.""Yeah.. thanks." It is not even past lunch yet, and the teacher is already wanting to see me. I don't think that I have done something against the classroom or school rules though, why is Mr. Seo finding for me? "Hey," The boy beside me throws an arm over my shoulders. "are you okay? You've been wearing that expression for days. Is this because of your engagement with Milo?" "Shush! Don't talk about that, Harry! Can't you see it's a very sensitive topic?" I cannot give them the same energy back, and it has been days, what Harry said was true. For one, am truly bothered with my engagement with Milo; and two, Tybalt has not been replying to me nor answering any of my calls. I really want to talk to him.. badly want to see him.. but it seems as though he does not care about this too much. Your girlfriend is getting married with somebody else, to make it worse it is with your brother, yet you are not doing anything about it. I get that he is upset,

Chapter: Chapter 47: What Lies Behind the Lies"Lorien, I ask you to marry me." Milo kneels to the ground, right hand digging into his pocket and then pulled out a diamond ring. My head turned up once more but Tybalt has already gone, my eyes laid down on my parents, father was mouthing for me to say yes and accept Milo's proposal. Flashes of what I think are hundred cameras surround the both of us, and this no doubt, is being aired live on TV. Milo remains on that position with hopeful eyes, the words he told me earlier plays like a broken record and I just cannot humiliate him here. People already have been hating me for dating him in secret, I cannot add up more to that. "Are you getting this?" "Is the camera rolling?" "We're live, aren't we?" My shaking right hand comes forward, as Milo's face lights up with glee and carefully slides the ring down my finger. His strong arms pulled me into his chest as the crowd begins to roar. This choice was mine. I should not blame anybody for this. ***"Here you are." Milo breaks the

Chapter: Chapter 6: A Flower in the Garden"Are you insane?"I distanced the phone to my ear just as my friend Elaine shouted that. Then rubbing my left ear, I let out a depressed sigh."You do realize that what you did was wrong, right? Isn't this your dream? It is finally coming true, Jeff! Would you like them to drop you?!""I know, I know.. I shouldn't have picked a fight with the greatest producer of all time.""Watch your tone," she warns. "Now I understand that you don't like him, but you will have to deal with it. This is for your dream, Jeff.""I can't believe him, honestly. He has zero consideration towards me, why couldn't he at least let me adjust, right? I am still not used to this place, and yet-""There is no use being angry about it right now, what's done is done.

Chapter: Chapter 5: First Day in School"Hello?""El!"I can hear a yawn from the other line, now that makes me feel guilty because I may have disturbed her sleep. But I couldn't care less, I am feeling very happy right now and I have to have somebody to share this joy with!"I wish this is something that's good, it is only six in the morning, Jeff." She growled. "Wait, shouldn't you be preparing for school?""I am at school," chuckles come out from my lips and added in, "Musika. You definitely know that school, right?"She groan, "Yeah right, your dream school. You've been wanting to apply to that since we graduated from high school. Come on, you know better than that, Jeff..""But I am for real right now, I'm really enrolled here!"I received another groan as she replied, "Prove it."I smirk, tapping on the screen to tur

Chapter: Chapter 4: MusikaI was awoke by a loud knock at the door, it sure is not new to me - getting my sleep interrupted - but who could this be? Is it the man that helped me last night? If yes, then I'd use this chance to thank him since I had forgotten to express my gratitude to him last night. I am really indebted to him, although he has not explained to me about this place.Twisting the knob and pulling the door open, I was surprised to see another man standing before me. My eyes shot big and wide, the man I was expecting to greet me today was behind this one in front of me. He is wearing an evil grin which caused me to blush; I am looking like an old woman right now for God's sake!"G-give me five minutes!" I scream, slamming the door shut and immediately headed inside the bathroom to wash up. I have not even brushed my teeth yet - oh my gosh, how could I forget my toothbrush?! It is not in my bag! This is a disaster!

Chapter: Chapter 3: Stranger DangerI am really doomed. Looking down to the phone in my hand, I find that the time is already 12:04 AM. I didn't realize myself that I had been wandering around the streets for hours, no wonder my feet and legs hurt. I needed to take a minute or two to sit down and rest.With yet another sigh, I formed my hands into a prayer and closed my eyes; leaning my forehead against my arms. I really don't know where I should go.. there is no one that I know that will gladly take me into their home, let alone let me stay there for the meantime until I finally have enough money to rent myself an apartment.Pulling a little notebook from the side of my hoodie, I opened it up to check how much I have earned so far -- unfortunately, it still is not enough. Living by yourself is much harder than I think it is, because not only the rent is your problem, also your stuff. I know that I've got to

Chapter: Chapter 2: Running Away is (not) Childish"Hey!"I heard screaming and clattering from the outside as I roll onto my back and yawned. My step-mother must have woken up on the wrong side of the bed today too, that's why she's breaking things up. This is normal for me though, if what is normal for everybody else is waking up to your parents happily preparing breakfast for you, well mine is different. I wake up to my step-mother complaining as my father gets himself ready for work. My step-sister, Yumi, was still sleeping sound inside of her room. Isn't my life interesting?"Wake up!" I groaned as I heard the witch's voice inside of my room. "What the hell are you still doing there sleeping, huh? Didn't I tell you to wake up early to make breakfast for us three?!"I don't remember her telling me that."Is that how you repay me, Jeff!? Are you forgetting t
