Chapter 32

I wait patiently in the waiting room while they sort out some things and put in my name for the visitor list.

An officer walks into the room and gestures at the door leading to the visiting room. I follow him inside. The light was a bit dim and there was a table at the centre of the small and cubical room. 2 chairs sat on opposite sides of the table.

I was given clear instructions. I was not allowed to touch him or give him anything. They had already taken my belongings, my phone and bracelet and anything metallic a bit earlier.

I take a deep breath and sit down.

“You shouldn’t be here. You were shot.” He said.

I almost drowned in embarrassment.

“Don’t remind me of how that happened. Never mind that, how’s your shoulder? How could they just arrest you without letting you get treated in the hospital first!”

He shook his head lightly. “They’ve got a doctor coming in here. He’s taking good care of me.”

He was quiet and more tense. Not his usual annoying self which was a

    “Forget it. You shouldn’t be here.” He looked away from me, his eyes were dark. He looked like he hadn’t slept all night since he had been here I could see slight reddish vessels in his eyes from sleep deprivation:“You can’t make me leave. I want to be here. It’s my fault you were shot in the first place. Think of it as me making up to you.” I shrugged.“So you weren’t here because you’re in love with me.” He cracks a small smile. I shake my head with a laugh. “Maybe you should start with liking first.” He doesn’t respond. I clear my throat.“So.. will you tell me what’s going on now? If you’re concerned about me judging you or something that will never happen. I swear. I pinky promise.” I offer my pinky and he raises an eyebrow and questioningly gives me his pinky. I shake it with mine. “It’s nothing too bad. I got busted for drugs that’s all. Except, the drugs weren’t mine. It was planted.” He grit his teeth and spoke with a strained voice.I furrow my eyebrows. “Say that agai

I walk over to an empty seat as I wait for my coffee. As soon as my name is called I go and get it, sipping on it slowly while I wait for the clock to turn to 11:30. I had 10 missed calls from my dad which was actually less than what I expected, I thought he would declare me a missing person and have all of his friends be on a lookout for me but it wasn’t the case. I think somehow, he knew where I was. I mean, he did tell me Taranis’s location so it would make sense if he had called to ask them if I had shown up. If they said yes then he already knew where I was and the fact that he didn’t show up to beat

    Chapter 34 “Okay okay, I’ll believe it when I see it.” I say. I was just hoping this wouldn’t make things worse but what other option did we have really? I still think we should have gone down the lawyer route and like an idiot I was so out of my mind that I didn’t even ask him about it, well then again there was also that time pressure of only having 5 minutes to talk and that was the limit before the stupid officer would usher me out. I blame the officer for why my brain wasn’t working. Yeah, that’s right. I’m smart and intelligent, he’s the one at fault clearly. If I had more time, I’m sure I could have come up with a better plan. I sigh. Maybe I could not have made a better plan but my point still stands of how ridiculous this was. I have only seen similar things in movies and tv shows, there was no way they could pull off some bull like that in real life… right? Right? If, by any chance, this ends up working out, then that would be pretty awesome. Maybe I would write a biogra

  • Bad Boy Roommate   Breakout

    Chapter 35 It took Taranis a couple of minutes to use the bobby pins on his hand cuffs and get free. By the time he did that, the electric gates had also opened from his cell. “Turn on the microphone.” Leo told Caleb and he proceeded to do so. We caught some sounds but couldn’t make out what was happening until Caleb amplified and used noise cancellation. “What was that?” I heard a guard say. The little camera could only show so much but I think I had an idea of what was going on. Soon enough, I heard sounds of a fight. Grunting and painful groans along with the sound of a fist meeting flesh and bone. I just don’t know who was hitting who and where. Seeing how Taranis handled that situation with Adam, I know he is no pushover and he knows how to take care of himself in a fight. There is no way that he is going to lose this. After another few minutes we were met with silence and I am assuming the fight had come to an end and the officer or guard who had went after Taranis was a bloo

  • Bad Boy Roommate   Apartment

    Chapter 36 “Ignore the… mess.” He says while he opens his apartment door. I looked inside and it was indeed messy. I didn’t expect it to be that bad before I went in but it was even worse than I had imagined. There were wrappers and paper everywhere. Instant ramen. Suspicious small white ziplocks with white powder inside them. Newspapers scattered. White plastic bags. Bottles. “Is this.. sulphuric acid?” I picked up a huge white bottle on the floor near the entrance with a danger label on it describing the substance.He snatches it from me and grumbles something as he puts it away in a cupboard in the kitchen. My eyes widen slightly and I blink trying to take in my surroundings. Who was I to judge though. If I didn’t have a roommate I’m sure my room would be just as messy. Okay maybe not just as messy but messy enough. \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \

    “Where will I sleep?” I wonder out loud.“You’re sleeping here tonight? Thought you’d be on your way.” Leo points out. I gave him an unbothered look, I didn’t mind at all considering how unwelcome he was being, probably because his apartment was super messy. “Of course I’ll be sleeping here. I’ll leave tomorrow morning and catch a cab to the cafe. They won’t think my car being there is weird right? What if they confiscate it or something.” Taranis shrugs. “They could. It depends entirely on my family.” I raised an eyebrow. “What does it have to do with your family?” I ask.He seemed hesitant for a while. “My brother.. he’s the one who planted those drugs.”

    Chapter 37“Are you serious?” I was baffled and could not believe my own ears. Did he just say his brother? As in, his BROTHER? Why would his brother plant those drugs. I mean I get sibling rivalry but clearly it has been taken too far in this particular case. “Why would your brother plant those drugs?”Taranis remained silent, not answering my question. Either he did not hear me clearly or he was pretending that he hadn’t heard me. Either way it seemed like he was not interested in telling me what was wrong currently.“I’ll drop Caleb and return the van to Killian.” Leo informs as he swings the keys to the van in his index finger, playing around with it.Taranis nodded. “Thanks for pitching in, Caleb.” He thanks him, giving off the impression of a well rounded kind individual. I then realise it was time for me to keep thinking of him as the asshole especially since the shooting.My heart started throbbing.‘No no no. Let’s not.. let’s just not think about that right now.

    Chapter 38 Clearly there was some intense family drama happening here. With Ian, the brother planting those drugs to get him arrested and the mysterious father whom Taranis hates. I thought I had strict parents and for the longest time that bothered me and I hated it. I wished they would give me some freedom so that I could live a relatively longer life that everyone else had lived. However, seeing them now, Taranis and his family, maybe I should be more grateful for what I have. At least mine is not a broken one. I wonder what he went through all his childhood, no wonder he is misunderstood by so many people. “Why do you think your brother planted those drugs?” I ask him. “There are 2 rooms, you can sleep in one. Leo and I can sleep in the other.” He avoids the question like plague and I don’t try to pressure him or press him to tell me more. It was something he did not want to talk about. I try to think that it was not because he didn’t trust me but probably because he felt very

  • Bad Boy Roommate   Jealousy

    We stopped by Leo’s apartment to grab a few things and then we were on our way to the campus. It was no longer in lock down but Aria’s room was still closed for now. They had given Dani a temporary room by shifting a bed in one of the non functional storage rooms. It sounds worse than it really was, the room was big enough. It wasn’t so bad. After the investigation is thoroughly complete and the room is all cleaned up, Dani could move back in. I don’t think she wanted to. If she had an option she would bolt from there the first second she could get. But living off of campus would be unnecessarily expensive.Since there is a vacancy..They offered me. They offered me to move in with Dani since I was so opposed to having a boy roommate. On one hand I don’t want Dani to suffer by herself and on the other, the thought of moving into that room scares me. I know it would be much worse for her, which is why I was confused.I sigh.“Can’t I just stay here and.. not move.” I mumble.“Do you th

    Chapter 42 The butler was dressed in all black, he brought a fancy food trolley and set down the plates with tea. There was a glass stand with 3 tiers, one of them had cupcakes, the other had small tea cakes and the top most one had macarons.My mouth was watering and I pursed my lips to stop myself from drooling.“Please, help yourself.” He waved to the food.I ponder with suspicion.“If I wanted to poison you, I would have done it while you were unconscious.” He assured me.That’s some assurance alright!“Can I have some cold coffee instead? I don’t really drink tea.” I shrug. If I’m here, might as well dig in right?“Right away.” The butler gave a little bow and headed back to the kitchen.Impressive. I nod slowly, slightly impressed with the way things worked here.They are living in a completely different world from me, aren’t they? I can’t imagine living like this. I mean, I didn’t have a bad life by any means. My parents always made sure I had everything I needed, of course. H

    I didn’t think about it before, rather, I think my mind was still hazy from whatever they gave me to knock me out. I can’t believe it.He looks nothing like him. I try to look closely at his features more and more, at one point he probably might think that I could be into him but I just wanted to get a good look to see the resemblance. I actually think their noses are the same. Maybe lips.Their eyes are completely different. Am I wrong?“Are you.. Taranis’s father?” I ask with hesitance. I could only imagine if he was really a random kidnapper who caught me for organ trafficking.The man gave a rough smile. “That is correct. I’m surprised you caught on so quickly. Unless he told me about you, of course.” He sounded like he was gloating to some extent, happy that he was being mentioned even if it was in a horrible way.I wanted to diffuse his fantasy.“I overheard your phone call with him.. sort of.” I shrug. “You know you could have just called me right?

    Chapter 40The last thing I remember was seeing a kitty in the back alley. If I really strain my brain for more information and try to recall the incident.. I’d say I was kidnapped and taken in a black van. There was bright white light shining and for a second I thought it was the tunnel people go through at the end of their life when they are ready to die.I try to scream, ‘NO I’m too young to die! Please! At least let me live till 40!’“No. I don’t want to die.” I murmur over and over as my eyes open and adjust to the bright light.Oh. It wasn’t a tunnel gateway to heaven.My eyes were just blinded by the reflection from the white ceiling.“Trust me sweetheart, we have no intention to harm you here.” My vision focuses on a man sitting opposite to me. Before I answer, I take a quick look around my surroundings and nudge my elbow against my pants just to see if my phone was still in my pockets. I doubt they would be rookie enough to leave it in without-Well I’ll be damned. I feel the

He said I was underestimating his control.I shake my head. “Forget it.” There is no point in looking deep into his actions because Taranis was a complete tease and he always has been.I ignored what had happened and went to sleep in the room which was cleaner than the living room. It took me a long time before sleeping finally came, I was thinking about all sorts of things. I had asked them if breaking out could potentially make things worse but apparently it depends solely on Taranis’s family. If they are trying to stir things up they might take it too far but maybe they’ll feel bad for their son who was just shot??? And let him have some peace. I finally fell into a restless sleep with many thoughts circling through out my head, I actually think that some of them managed to become dreams or nightmares inside my mind.
