Gabriel's
"Aaargh! I hate him!" I grunted, pertaining to my great boyfriend as I take the seat in front of Top's executive table.
He didn't say anything so I looked at him and saw that he's busy with his phone and he looks like he's having fun while texting someone which made me more upset.
'Grrr. Why do people nowadays seems to have no time to at least listen to me?! Am I becoming less significant to them?!'
I can't help but to pout and cross my arms against my chest because of the thought.
Maze has been totally ignoring me for a week now! He barely got time for me and he often come home late from work. It's getting too often and it got me thinking that Maze has something else to be busy with aside from managing the bar and being a Clinical Psychologist.
He can't be really busy with the bar since Mark and Top is helping him and base from what I can see with
"Gab, let's talk." Maze said as he put his briefcase on top of their bed. Gabriel was busy reading a book while sitting on their bed when Maze arrived from work.Maze is quite consumed right now. He just got a call from Top while he's on his way home. The guy was ranting about how his son learned a bad word after spending a day with Gab.Tim just exclaimed the 'f' word when Top hit the brake and there's only one suspect for that. But instead of calling Gab, he talked it out with Maze and told him that he should teach his wife a lesson.'Tsk. As if that would change his cussing mouth.'Maze looked at Gab who's still immersed with the book he's reading. It's been 7 years since they settled down and is now living in their dream house. It was a blissful married life for the both of them.Though, they encountered a lot of conflicts during those times, that didn't changed their fee
Maze'sThe class just finished and me and my friends decided to grab a bite to a nearby restaurant at the university. But upon reaching the restaurant, my phone suddenly rang and the caller ID shows that it's my great Dad."Maze? What's wrong?" I looked at Crimson as Heather and Royce went ahead of us inside the restaurant. He seemed to notice the sudden change in my mood and already had a clue who the caller is. "Well, he won't call you unless it's urgent." He said while shrugging and he's right. My Dad won't call me to have a chitchat cause we're not really close in the first place. So for sure, it's important and I have no choice but to answer him and take the call in front of Crimson."What is it?" I asked him with an indignant tone and it took him a while to answer on the other line. I waited for him to answer but what he said had instantly shattered my whole world."Y-your Mom. S-she's gone."
One year laterGabriel's"Gab!" I was awaken by the loud knock outside my room and judging from the loud voice of the owner, I'm damn sure that it's my best friend Mike. But for goodness' sake! It's Sunday! Why on earth would he even dare to disturb my precious sleep?!The loud knock on my door continued and I had no choice but to grunt as I get up from my bed and walked towards the door. Not even minding the fact that I'm actually shirtless. All that matters to me now is to be able to smack Mike's head for ruining my Sunday rest!And so, I opened the door with a grumpy face only to see my best friend smiling brightly at me. Totally unaware that he's in for some scolding for disturbing me."Rise and shine, Boss!" He greeted with such a jolly tone but I was too pissed to greet him back and just gave him a death glare."You had the spunk to tell me to rise and shine
Maze's"Maze, where have you been?" Mark asked me as I entered the backstage. I looked at all of them and saw how excited they are to perform. Mark couldn't control himself from playing with his drumsticks. While Cole is busy tuning the guitar same with Troy who's in charge with the bass."Finally, the man of the hour is here!" I looked at Top when he entered the backstage with a wide smile. I smiled at him slyly as I shook my head because of his exaggeration. "Where have you been?" He also asked so I shrugged as I remembered how unfortunate I am to witness such dramatic scene a while ago in the rooftop and how I felt satisfied upon seeing that cheater's red cheeks from the slap given by the girl."Someone called me and I had to find a quiet place to answer the call so I went to the rooftop." I answered and they all nodded. So I sighed before smiling at all of them. "Are we good?" I asked them and I suddenly caught a glimpse of nerv
Gabriel's"Thank you very much, Everyone! I hope you enjoyed our performance for tonight!" And again, he flashed his sweet smile showing how overwhelmed he is by the crowd's loud cheer for their band. Even Mike did not hold back and cheered for them loudly. "We hope to see you all again tomorrow night. Again, thank you." they are all about to get off the stage but the crowd stopped them."Wait!" One of the audience shouted. The vocalist was the one to look at him and smiled as if he's waiting for the next thing he would say. "Aren't you going to introduce yourselves, first?" The guy asked and I couldn't be more thankful to him. Cause I also want to know what's the vocalist's name. The whole crowd agreed and cheered for them again. I looked at the vocalist and he seemed to feel a bit uneasy.'Hmm. A private person, I see.'His bandmates talked to him as if convincing him to introduce himself and he seemed to ha
Maze'sI decided to live in a dormitory near the campus where I enrolled for it doesn't have curfews. It's also been a year when I first came here and if it wasn't for Top and Mark who convinced me to enrol again for this academic year, I would have never want to study again. Not when I'm still unsure if I'll be staying here for a long time. But they are both right, it would be such a waste for me not to study while I'm still here.If I had decided to enrol last year, then I'll probably be at the same year as Top by now since I just finished my first year when I ran from home. I'm also a Psychology student in my former university. It's also been a week since the class started but I filed a one week break with the reason that I had to work on my papers. I was able to change my name from King to Johnson. And so far, that's the biggest thorn that I'm able to remove in my heart.That I am not carrying the cheater's name anymore.
Gabriel's"Gab, my friend!" Mike greeted me cockily as he entered the room. Our block mates looked at him weirdly as it was too early to be that loud but Mike is naturally loud. That's actually his voice's normal volume and I can't do anything but shook my head as I wait for him to finally settle down at the chair beside me. I frowned when I saw how wide his smile was. It's as if he won the lottery with that kind of look and that's quite far from the usual grin he flash every morning.Well, Mike is the type of guy who can't easily get sad. He always looks at the brighter side of things. That's why he decided that he'll also study Psychology with me so that, he'll be able to infect his future clients with his happy virus. And as for me, I wanted to study Psychology to be able to read people's mind. Well, not totally read them to a certain extent that I can guess what they're going to say but I want to be able to know who's telling the truth amo
Gabriel's"That's all for today, Everyone. Class dismissed." Our professor said and we all uttered thanks in unison before he left. I heaved a deep sigh before stretching my arms same with Mike. Our block mates started to get out of the classroom one by one but I prefer to let them go ahead of us.It's our lunch break already. I looked at Maze on the other side and saw that he's looking at his phone intently with a frown. I can also see that it's ringing but it seems like he doesn't want to answer it."Maze! Gab!" The three of us looked at the guy who called us and saw Top with the other three members of Thoughts at Midnight. I can't pretty much remember their names as I wasn't really focusing on them last night.I don't know but I felt something weird when Top called our names. It sounded cute. Suitable. My eyes widened when I realized what I was actually thinking.'Suitable? What the f

Maze's"Nervous?" I asked Gab though it's already obvious.I can see that he cannot settle himself at the passenger's seat and has been fidgeting his finger ever since we left the dorm. He looked at me and he smiled awkwardly."I-i don't know what to tell her once we're already there." He honestly said and I can't help but laugh because of how cute he is."C'mon, Gabriel. It's not as if you'll be having a chitchat with my Mom." I said and he winced at me."Maze! Of course I want to look presentable and deserving in front of your Mom! You can't expect me to be confident! I'm only second to her when it comes to the people you love." He grunted and even wrinkled his nose which made him cuter.It's now obvious that he's sulking because I made fun of his nervousness. Well, you can't blame me. This wife of mine is about to meet my Mom at her grave for the fir
Gabriel's"My dad left us 6 years ago. Before that, I can notice that he's becoming cold and indifferent to my mom. Then one day, he told me that he'll be gone for just 3 days for an overseas transaction and guess what? He never came back. He lied. And how stupid I am to believe him." I told Maze while trying to hold back my tears.He's looking at me intently and I can see that he's eager to listen to me as I tell him about my past while we're both lying face to face on his bed. His arms are wrapped around my waist and I can see that he's not planning to let me go any time soon.And I am not complaining. I need this. I need him as I relive the pain from my past."Life without him is hard. Especially for my Mom. She had kept everything all by herself cause she's afraid that I won't be able to handle the truth about my father abandoning us for another woman. She always tell me, she's
Gabriel'sI saw how he smiled at me as he started singing and all I did is to stay standing in front of him, the full moon is shining down at us making this moment more romantic and majestic as Maze's beautiful voice surrounded the place."When, when we came homeWorn to the bonesI told myself, 'this could get rough'And when, when I was offWhich happened a lotYou came to meAnd said, 'that's enough'"His eyes never left mine.And all I can feel right now is the overflowing love that I have for this man in front of me. I never knew that I would actually be able to feel this kind of love towards anyone but then I'm glad to have felt it. I'm glad to have this feelings only for Maze."And oh, I know that this love is painBut we can't cut it from out these veins, no"My rapid heartbeat doubled when he started singing the ch
Gabriel'sI felt my whole body ache and it made me groaned."Gab?" I heard a familiar voice calling my name so I slowly opened my eyes only to see Top looking at me worriedly and I frowned at him as I feel the pain all over my body as if I've been crushed by a wrestler.It was then I remembered what happened before I passed out.I saw Adan kissing Maze so I ran away to leave but then, when I was running to get to our dorm, three guys pulled me in the dark alley and started beating the hell outta me without any reason. I still remember how every punch and kick felt and it made me winced in pain."Gab, tell me. Aside from body pain, do you happen to feel dizzy?" I looked at the one who asked me and saw Crimson's face."What are you doing here in my room?" I asked while frowning. I still remember how he hugged Maze and how he told us that he's Maze's boyfr
Maze's"Stellar Tower, executive suite 126." Mark said on the other line when he's finally able to elicit some information from Adan about my Dad's whereabouts at the moment.Well as the son of a Major, it's not hard for him to use some of his father's subordinates just to get the information he wants.So here I am, driving Top's car on the way to one of the famous hotels here just to finally set things over with my Dad. And this time, I'll make sure that he won't be able to hurt me nor Gab anymore.I'm so done with this miserable life with him. I deserve to be happy. That's what my Mom wants for me. To finally be happy and believe in love.'Mom, I promise to have a better love than yours.'"Sir, you cannot come in if you don't have an appointment with Mr. King--" The receptionist and one of the guards tried to stop me but then some of my father's men who happen to
Maze's"Hmm." I looked at Top when he offered me a cup of coffee after he went outside to grab a snack while I stay in my room with Crim and Gab who's still unconscious til now. He also gave a cup to Crimson who's sitting at my couch and Top sat beside him while I remain seated beside Gab to keep him close. I put the cup of coffee on my bedside table while still looking closely at Gab.Crimson was the one to give him first aid before we brought him here in my dorm. I can't afford to bring him to the hospital cause I know that my father is still keeping a keen eye to every of our movements. That's why we decided to just call Barry's friend who's a doctor at the community hospital.Dr. James said that Gab's vital is now stable and he just needs some rest. He also said that the reason why he passed out is because of exhaustion plus the pain of getting beaten up.He prescribed some pain meds for Gab be
Maze's"Maze! Where are you going?! What happened?!" Top asked when I'm about to leave alone.But then, I remember that I have them. That I have my friends. And just like what Gab had taught me. I don't have to deal with everything alone. I looked at all of them and same as me, they all looked worried.Well except from Crimson, Heather and Royce. They looked clueless about who Gab is but I have no more time to explain.I need to find Gabriel.And for the first time in my life, I'll ask for other people's help."Guys." My voice cracked upon saying that. "I-i need your help." I said before giving them a pleading look."My, my. I thought you're invincible, Maze." I looked at Adan who's still on the ground. "Seems like Gab has became your Achilles heel. But I thought you don't love him?" He keeps on blabbering but before I could even hit him, Top
