Rosalind

"Hi. My name's Leon. You are?" 

"Rosalind. Nice to meet you," I said politely. 

I really didn't like the way that he was looking at me, so I just focused my eyes on the pointed edge of the table. I could also feel the gaze of his three other friends, so I touched my face to see whether it had something on it. 

I breathed out a sigh of relief when they finally turned their attention to Trina and others. "Hey, move over for the pretty lady," Leon said. 

Trina's eyebrows furrowed. "What do you mean? Us pretty girls are already seated."

Leon scoffed, then glanced back at me. "Not you. Scoot over so the prettiest lady could sit down."

Trina clicked her tongue and instructed the other girls to make some space. Honestly, I just wanted to go home because I felt like I didn't belong here. However, I just couldn't leave Axel all alone. 

I sighed and tried to sit down, but I noticed that the only space le

    TrinaI bit my lips and clenched my fists in anger as I looked at Rosalind dragging Axel away from the club."You okay, Trina?" Deborah asked, trying to console me, but I slapped her hand away and continued glaring at their retreating figures.I closed my eyes and took in deep breaths because I couldn't afford to have an outburst right here. It'll only ruin my reputation.I knew from the start that Rosalind was a good-for-nothing girl. Yes, I was a little bit dazed when I first saw her because she was so pretty—wait, scratch that! She's pretty but not as pretty as me. I hated the way that Axel looked at her and even hated how innocent she was acting. I know deep down that she's just keeping up that persona to impress men. She most likely has a bitchy personality in reality.To be honest, I was really happy when I saw Axel walking down the street, but she just had to ruin it for me. I've liked Axel since high school bec

    RosalindI didn't think that this day could be even more eventful, but it did. As we were only a few minutes away from Doctor Sir Jerry's Clinic, rain suddenly started pouring down from the sky.It started off with just light droplets, but it eventually felt like it was raining cats and dogs. I held onto Axel's arm and dragged him to a small waiting shed on the side of the road.I huffed as I dusted away the water droplets off of my sweater."Talk about bad luck. Why did it have to rain right now? Couldn't it wait until we arrived at the clinic?""Let's just go. We're only a few blocks away from the clinic anyway."I looked at him incredulously and gestured towards the rain. "We're going to be soaked by the time we get there. Let's just wait it out.""Come on. Are you afraid of a little rain?" he taunted.I scoffed. "A little rain? It's literally storming."I stuck my hand out of the shed and show

    RosalindI jinxed myself.I told Axel yesterday that I wasn't the type of person who got sick easily, but look at me now.After dancing in the rain last night, we went straight to Doctor Sir Jerry's clinic to fetch Sebastian and get our luggage. They were surprised to see us drenching wet, but we didn't have time to explain or get changed anymore since we were about to miss our train schedule. We boarded the train at 11:00 PM like usual and got changed in the bathroom of the train. It was already 1 AM when we arrived at the palace, so we all fell asleep right away.When I woke up, my head felt heavier, and my skin felt hotter than usual. I groggily got up to take my temperature and groaned when I saw that it was 38.5 degrees Celsius."Fuck," I muttered under my breath while going under the covers once again. My forehead was sweating, and I felt hot yet cold at the same time."Just sleep," I whispered to myself, but it

    RosalindI woke up feeling much better than before. I reached up to my forehead to feel my temperature and was surprised to find out that the towel was still cold. Axel must have kept replacing it any chance that he got.I opened my eyes and smiled when I saw Axel's face near mine. I tilted my head to the side as I observed his handsome features."This really isn't fair," I whispered. "How could you be so handsome?"He stirred in his sleep, so I quickly yet quietly moved away from him. I watched with wide eyes as Axel groaned and moved around.I let out a sigh of relief when he finally calmed down and went back to sleep.Since I wanted him to rest more, I quietly got up from my bed and tiptoed out of the room. I was also starving and thirsty from not being able to drink or eat all day, so I decided to go to the kitchen. I just hoped to the Moon Goddess that no one was there.When I got to the kitchen, I w

    RosalindI scoffed, trying to play off the nervousness in my heart."What are you saying? Me? Liking Axel? I told you that this was about my friend."She gave me an incredulous look. "Sis, no offense, but you don't have any friends.""I do!" I argued, still keeping up with my little white lie.She sighed and massaged her temples. "Okay, let's just say that I believe you."I pouted because it really felt as if she didn't believe me."You're only going to find the answer to your question if you ask.""But what if he doesn't like me?" I asked, caving in.She sighed. "Have you even told him that you like him yet?"I looked down at the table and shook my head.She slapped her hands on her thighs. "See! You haven't even told him! He must be confused as hell too."I threw my head back in frustration. "I'm scared, okay? I've never felt this way before, and it just sucks that I feel like he

    Rosalind"Why are you wearing that?" I asked, my voice breaking in the end.He looked down at his outfit. "What? This? These are my favorite pajamas," he justified.I nodded my head. "Yeah, I know. You just wore them yesterday night. Did you wear them again today?""Oh, this? I like this so much that I have multiple pairs."My mouth went agape. That never crossed my mind."Why? Did it seem like I took it from the laundry basket to wear it again?"I did not say anything in response since I was still shocked that all the three signs that I've laid out were fulfilled in just one night. It hasn't even reached 10:00 PM!"Earth to Rosalind," he said, snapping his fingers in front of my face.I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn't even realize that he was once again sitting next to me.I cleared my throat and moved farther from him."You okay?" he asked.I vigor

    RosalindWe were now on our way to Agartha—the place where Luna Aerin currently is. We were already nearing the vicinity, and there were no trains that passed through this area, so we just ended up walking.We were surrounded by tall trees, itchy grass, and different types of exotic flowers.I groaned as I once again scratched my leg, which seemed to be a favorite target for the mosquitoes around here."Why are you even wearing a dress in the first place?" Sebastian asked, laughing as he watched me scratch my legs for the nth time of the day.I glared at him. "Well, you didn't tell me that we were going to be walking!"He raised his hands up in surrender. "Hey, I disclosed to you the plan yesterday night in your room. It's not my fault that you were not paying attention."I grumbled under my breath and trudged behind them, still feeling grumpy from all the mosquito bites on my legs.We had be

    Rosalind"Oh god, this is rich," Sebastian continued, guffawing.I tapped his shoulder. "What did you say? Hey, repeat what you just said?" I said, almost shaking him.After saying his last statement, he started laughing so much that I couldn't decipher whether he was joking or not."Luna Aerin...is Axel's mother?" I asked. I tried to make my voice neutral, but it came out a little bit hopeful and expectant.He wiped the sides of his mouth before replying. "Yes! Why the hell would you think she's his girlfriend?"I looked away from him. "Just cause—he told me that she was someone very important in her life.""Duh! She's his mom.""Yeah, well, I didn't know that back then," I said in exasperation.I tried so hard to hold back my happiness, but I felt my lips forming into a smile as I internalized the new information. So, Luna Aerin isn't Axel's girlfriend but his mom."You must l

    It has been exactly eight months since Axel and Cupid called each other to share that their respective wives were pregnant, and it has also been eight months since they’ve been seeing each other every month. Axel sighed as he packed his bags once again.“Are you ready, love?” Rosalind called out from the bathroom.Axel smiled and tried to sound cheery. “Yes, love. I’ll just load the bags in the car.”“Alright, I’ll come down after peeing,” she called out.“Stay here while I load our things, love. I’ll go back here to come and fetch you.”Rosalind flushed the toilet and moved out of the bathroom. “Wait, let’s just go together,” she walked toward her husband. She held onto her back as she walked since her stomach had gotten so big that her back failed to support her by itself anymore.Axel clicked his tongue and shook his head when he saw her struggling to walk. He placed their bags down on the ground and walked over to where she was. One hand held onto her back while the other held on

    Axel excitedly dialed Cupid's number, ready to tell him about the unexpected news. As much as the two of them try to deny it, they both know, deep inside their hearts, that they treat each other as very good friends. "Yo," Axel said into the phone. "I have something to tell you." "Axel!" Cupid greeted in an equally jolly voice. "I was just about to call you too. I also have some great news." Axel became a little suspicious when he heard that Cupid, too, had some good news, but nothing could really take away from his happiness after the news that he had just heard. "You go first, then," Axel presented since he is in a good mood. "Nah, man. You go first. You're the one who called me first. Go ahead," Cupid responded. "No, you." "No, you go first." "No, YOU go first." "No, you're the one who should go first." They endlessly said to each other. In the end, Axel sighed in frustration. "Let's just say it at the same time, alright. Then we'll explain it individually afterward." "Fi

    "Did you get it?" Rain excitedly said as she went out of her office. Liam looked up from his laptop and focused his attention on Rain. "Get what?" Rain sighed in frustration. "The invitation!" "What invitation?" he asked, confused. Rain walked closer to him and went behind his back. "I told you to check your personal email more often. Come on, open up your account." Liam quickly opened up his personal email account and clicked on the latest message. He read the contents of the email. "A high school reunion?" "Yeah," Rain nodded her head. "Let's go together." Liam smiled. In the course that they have been dating, he could feel that Rain had changed for the better. She had gained so much confidence over the past few months, and Liam feels proud knowing that she had grown to love and appreciate herself even more. "Yeah, let's go together. I also miss some of my high school friends." Rain smiled. "That's settled, then. Let's also buy our outfits together." *** Rain and Liam t

    "This is it," Cupid removed his hands from Gillian's eyes, revealing a spacious yet cozy-looking infrastructure filled with antique designs. "Our new bakery." Gillian looked at the infrastructure in awe, and suddenly got teary-eyed when she realized that they were going to be having a new chapter in their life. Cupid chuckled as he observed his wife's teary eyes. "Why are you crying? This is supposed to be a happy event, love." Gillian wiped her tears with her sleeves and tried her hardest not to cry. "I know, love. I'm just so proud of the two of us." Ever since Gillian and Cupid had been married, they started thinking more about their future. They both knew that Cupid's investments would be more than enough to provide for their everyday needs, but they still would want to have a steady, stable income where the two of them can work together. And as someone who enjoys cooking and baking quite a lot, Cupid suggested that they open a cafe near Briana's restaurant. He thought that

    No matter how many times Axel wakes up to Rosalind in the morning, he still can’t get over how beautiful his wife is. He smiled and leaned closer to her face, tracing her features from her eyes down to her lips.“Axel, stop that,” Rosalind swatted his hand away and scooted farther away from him.“Love, stay here,” Axel whined and pulled her closer, peppering kisses all over her neck.“I’m tired, Axel,” she grumbled and closed her eyes to get more sleep.“Why, my love? Didn’t you get enough sleep yesterday?”Rosalind clicked her tongue and glared at Axel. “Of course, I’m tired! You fucking ruined me yesterday.”Axel smiled with pride. “But you liked it, right?”Rosalind rolled her eyes and turned away from Axel, trying to hide her reddening cheeks. "Whatever. I'm going to sleep."Axel chuckled and placed a chaste kiss on top of her shoulder. "Rest well, my love. I'll be cooking some breakfast.""Mmh," Rosalind hummed, willing herself to sleep once again.

    Olivia and Dallas gazed back and forth between Liam who was on stage and Rain who was sitting right next to them. Olivia couldn't help but let out a small chuckle when she saw Rain's flushed face as other people also started teasing her. "How the fuck did he know what I was going to wear?" she asked. Dallas shook his head. "I went with him. He definitely didn't know. He just grabbed the first sweater he saw at Target. Must be destiny or something." Rain knew that Dallas was joking when he told her about destiny, but she couldn't help but blush at the thought that they might really be destined for each other. Liam, who saw Rain from a distance, was also shocked to see that they were wearing the same sweaters. He smiled to himself as he watched Rain getting teased by her other co-workers. 'I knew that going to Target would be a good idea,' he thought in his mind. "Good evening, everyone!" Liam finally said into the mic. The crowd cheered and clapped their hands, ready to star

    When Liam told Rain that he would show her how he truly feels, she thought that he was just joking. There was no way that the guy she has been liking for the past seven years would suddenly show interest in her and make the effort to prove it.However, much to her surprise, he wasn’t lying. Ever since that day, she would always see her favorite coffee on top of her desk. On the weekends, flowers would suddenly show up on her doorstep. And during the end of her shift, Liam would always be waiting for her to take her home.She arrived in the office and saw yet another coffee, accompanied by two blueberry muffins, on top of her desk.“Damn, girl. I’m jealous of this admirer of yours. You’ve been receiving free breakfast for the past week!” Olivia saidRain chuckled and handed Olivia one of the blueberry muffins before taking a sip from her coffee. Olivia smiled in delight before taking the blueberry muffin from Rain's hands. "Do you already know who this admirer is?" she asked. Rain st

    “I like you, alright?” Rain bursted out.“I’ve liked you for so damn long that it’s killing me inside! I know that you don’t see me that way, and I also know that you have something going on with Claire, that’s why I hate myself for even thinking about you—for thinking we could be together. So, stop doing this—whatever this is that you’re doing. To you, this might only be an act of friendship, but to me who has liked you from the beginning, I am starting to misinterpret your actions. It’s so fucking difficult for me to act platonically with you if you keep doing these things. So, please. Stop. I’ll also stop bothering you from now on.”Liam intently listened to every word that Rain said. He never expected this, to be honest. To him, Rain was like an honest friend that always had his back. She would always be there to comfort him whenever he felt down, and even when he had problems with Claire, she’d always be there to listen. Looking back on it, Rain must have suffered a lot because o

    Liam felt giddy as he parked his car in the parking lot. Even if he didn’t get much sleep last night, he still somehow feels energetic. It’s like there’s something, or rather, someone he’s looking forward to seeing to in the office. Rain, on the other hand, had a full night of sleep but she still felt like she didn’t get enough rest. She placed her things down on the table and sat down on her chair with a deep sigh. Olivia saw this, so she walked towards her and placed her hand on her shoulder. “Hey, you alright?”“Mmh?” Rain looked up at Olivia and smiled. “I’m great, Liv.”Even if Rain smiled, it somehow didn’t feel genuine. “Did everything go well yesterday?” Olivia asked, wondering if something bad happened during the dinner, causing her to act like this.Everything went well. Too well, if you ask Rain. Liam and her had the best conversation they ever had, but it only reminded her that their relationship stops at that.
