Raylie

What? A recorded line? Are they kidding me?

I just couldn’t help but get annoyed at the announcer. Who is that punk, huh?

“Whoa! I couldn’t believe the broadcasting team was that great. They copied your voice, really well.”

 Loki leaned his arm on my shoulder. I was in the field already. I couldn’t believe Vivienne pushed me hard just like that. Then, I heard the uproar of the students. My voice was heard in all the corners of Brixtons University, proclaiming myself to a girl. I don’t know

Ugh! 

I breathed harshly. What is Vivienne thinking denying it all? She should be grateful, instead. It’s her time to be popular. If she sticks with me, she'll enjoy the same privileges that the Titans had. She can skip classes without getting failing grades. No one will ever bully her

  • Between Two Titans   Chapter 33—Who is the guy Vivienne was dating?

    Raylie“Maybe she was dating someone, young master. That’s why she keeps declining you.” Mr. Lewis said his opinion.I stopped nagging and put down my cutlery. That makes sense. Maybe Vivienne has a boyfriend already and she was just keeping it a secret. She said she wanted a quiet life at school. So, she prefers to date quietly.Argh! I should find the guy! I wanted to know what kind of guy Vivienne liked.The next day, I am busy tailing Vivienne at school. From the time she went to school until the dismissal. And even in her club.In the morning, Jayden approached her in our classroom. He handed her books again. Vivienne gave him some, in exchange. I became observant. What if Jayden was the guy? It’s possible because Jayden quickly accepted Vivienne in the club. What if they were exchanging messages through exchanging

    VivienneI went to the club room to send the books I finished reading. I saw Jayden busy chatting with the other members. But when he noticed me, she approached me and took the book from me.“Oh, are you done?” He greeted me. “Thanks for the hard work.”I smiled in return and waited for him to hand me another book. But he went back to the member he was chatting with when I came. I waited for him to finish the conversation. It's been almost fifteen minutes. When he dismissed him, I approached Jayden.“Pres…” I called out.“Yes, Vivienne. Why are you still here?” He frowned his forehead.“W-Well, I am waiting for the other books you’re going to assign to me.” I said in confusion.“Oh, regarding that. I thought you don’t want to do it.”

    Raylie “The supervisor asked me not to come tonight. There’s nothing to do there. But it’s okay. I worked 24hours. I have been in since yesterday after school, remember? My salary would be the same even if I didn’t come to work tonight.” “Whoa! That company's management seems to be very willing to let you work based on your own time.” “Yeah! That’s why I am thankful they accepted me into the company.” I was flustered to hear that. Or did I just hear it wrong? Is she really working? But where? And what kind of work? She was not even eighteen so how did she manage to enter a company? Did she lie about her age? But that’s not easy since most of the companies require authenticated documents. Except if she was just working part-time in some convenience stores, food chains, and café? I flicked my fingers. That was it! She must be

  • Between Two Titans   Chapter 36-Salary increase

    VivienneI excitedly opened the envelope with my salary. Those who were working part-time like me, get their salary over-the-counter. Only those who were regular employees have bank account cards and were paid every fifteenth and last working day every month.But I frowned as I counted the money from my envelope.“W-What is this?” I murmured as I counted it for the second and third times. It really doubled my supposed salary.“Huh? Is there any problem, Vivienne?” Aria asked as she approached me. Maybe she heard what I just said.I turned to Aria and showed her all the money in my hands. “Look at this, Aria. Maybe they gave me the wrong envelope.”“Really?” Aria got curious as well. “Look for the name on the back of the envelope.”I followed her ins

  • Between Two Titans   Chapter 37—The son of the boss.

    Vivienne “I’m still sleepy…” I yawned and put down the book I am trying to read.I am alone in the classroom. Sheena invited me to dine with her at their family restaurant but I declined. Aside from the fact that I need to finish these books, I am also saving up. I wanted to buy a new scooter. I think using my old one wasn’t wise. It’s always in the auto repair shop. Since I have a salary increase, I surely can save for a new one. But for the meantime, I'll endure the old thing.I sighed and started to read again. Someone took the other book and sat above my table.“What are these? Are you trying to kill yourself?”I raised an eyebrow. “How can reading books kill one's self?”Raylie flipped the pages. He doesn’t seem interested in the book. He was ju

    Vivienne“Look over there. He was at the shading area.” Aria keeps nagging me.“Come on, Aria. Let’s not talk about him. We might get scolded.”“Just look over there. Look. He was so handsome!”“Nah! Whatever.”“He was looking in our direction.”“Because we were chatting while working. Do you want him to take back our salary increase?” I hissed at her.I am actually worried that the new boss might do it for real. Brats tend to do things against something they do not like.“Nah.” Aria sighed and shut her mouth.Soon, I heard the production manager call out for me.“Come over here for a while, Vivienne.”I turned to the shading a

  • Between Two Titans   Chapter 39- Staying at work until dawn

    RaylieUntil three in the morning? Was she trying to kill herself? How in the world will she ever get rest?I am sitting on the swivel chair, in front of my office table. I was trying to figure out things. Mr. Dawnson was in his office too, dealing with some matters. He said he'll be off by twelve so I must leave too.But I just can’t leave if Vivienne was going to work until three in the morning.Someone knocked at my office.“Come in.” I said lazily.A server came with a tray of coffee and a sandwich.“Mr. Dawnson told me to deliver it to you, young master.”I just nodded and continued to do what I was doing.“Is there anything you want, young master?” She politely asked.“Nothing.”

    VivienneThe bell rang at twelve midnight. The workers turned off the lights and find spots to sleep.“Come over here, Vivienne. I saw a nice spot for us.” I heard Aria called out.“Okay, I am coming.” I answered and turned to Raylie. I was about to ask him what his plans were but I heard the speakers from the production area turned on.“Paging Raylie, come over the office.” Mr. Dawnson's voice was all over the production area.I turned my back and started walking towards Aria. What am I thinking? Raylie can do whatever he wants. Why should I worry about him, though? He is the boss. He'll definitely lie comfortably at his office or drive back home already.I hadn't taken a few steps when Raylie grabbed my arm.“Come with me.” He firmly said.

  • Between Two Titans   Chapter 114-The End

    Vivienne It’s been a month and I am always there at Raylie’s villa, taking care of him while sharing with him the lessons that we had at school. He insisted on making me stay in the villa and I agreed just because he has to recover from his wounds and fractures. I told him I’ll be back in the apartment once he is fully recovered. Sometimes, I thought he was just faking the pain already just to keep me in the villa. His face was totally healed and he can walk already. Sometimes he was still limping and complained he was in pain but I usually caught him walking straightly. Just like now. He was walking on the pavement in his garden. It’s Saturday morning and we usually hang out in his garden during weekend mornings. I fished out my phone from my pocket and took a video of him walking. Then I silently walked towards him. “Boyfriend!” I yelled behind his back. Raylie seemed to be startled and stopped walking on the pavement. He started to

  • Between Two Titans   Chapter 113-Getting things right.

    Raylie When I opened my eyes, I was in a hospital suite. Vivienne was there. And her eyes were red. I guess she was crying, again. “Oh, my God! You’re awake!” Vivienne quickly hugged me. I gathered her to my chest. “How long have I been asleep?” I whispered. “Almost twenty-four hours.” “And I guess you were crying for more than twenty-four hours. Look at your eyebags. Did you even take a nap?” “How could I sleep? You haven’t woken up since you collapsed in the building!” She hissed and let go of me. “And what kind of brain do you have? Why didn’t you call the police? You should not go there alone!” Vivienne started to nagged. “Right, you should not go there alone.” Logan entered the room together with Loki and Thore. “You’re such a fool! Wh

    Raylie I asked Vivienne to live in the condo unit I took for her but she insisted on moving into the old apartment they used to live in. She said she paid for the rent for the whole Spring season. She felt better staying in the place where she paid with her hard earned money rather than in a comfortable condo unit that I provided for her. I don’t get it but I just agreed. After what just happened, after what we faced, I don’t want us to fight again. “It’s been a while since we went to the park together. I want to go there again.” Said Vivienne. It’s already dark. We enjoyed hanging out together with our friends. We went to the mall after school, played arcades and ate dinner together. It’s been a while since we laughed like that. And it feels so good. “Aren’t you tired?” Vivienne shook her head. “I wanted to go t

    RaylieChloe went inside my room. Surprisingly, she had my phone. She threw it above my bed, beside me. I turned to her, stunned.“How did you get this?” I asked her.“I made a deal with Dad and Mom just to get that, your cards and for you to go back to school. So, you should do better at school starting tomorrow. Don’t skip school ever again, understand? You go to school and don’t do something foolish or you’ll be locked here again.”I sighed and plopped on the bed. “How can I do that? The only reason why I am coming to school wasn't there anymore.” I lazily closed my eyes.Thore and the twins told me that Vivienne and her family moved to a small town far from here. I tried to come to her but I couldn't. And even now that Chloe made a deal with our parents, I am certain Dad won’t let me come to wh

  • Between Two Titans   Chapter 110-Vivienne meets with Chloe.

    Vivienne St. Louis was a fishing village. How can Mom make pickles here? I sighed. It’s been three days since we moved here and Mom hasn't found a job. Me as well. How can a highschool student find a job in a small town like this? I sat on the wide seawall while watching the sundown. It’s always like this everyday since the first day. Mom would go to the shoreline to buy a bunch of new catched fish and she would sell it in retail at the town. While Vianna transferred to the nearby school. I felt sorry for Vianna. I know it’s hard for her too. And me, I don’t know what to do. I haven’t processed my papers from Brixton yet. All I just want is to escape from there. I sighed. I was thinking what are they doing right now? Were they happy? Is everyone celebrating the newly engaged couple? How about Raylie. Why didn’t he come that night? Thore said that it’s Raylie

  • Between Two Titans   Chapter 109-I was locked.

    Raylie “Let me out!” I shouted at the security guard. But they just pushed me back inside the main door. “You can’t go out, young master. That’s what the master told us.” Every exit was being guarded. I was about to come and meet Thore and Vivienne that night but my father’s men blocked me. My Dad even informed them to fight me if I insisted on going. As long as I am alive, it’s fine even if I am hurt. And that’s fucking bullshit! They arrange my engagement without my knowledge! I was surprised to hear the announcement. And I am sure Vivienne was confused as hell. I wanted to explain to her. I wanted to tell her that I will break the engagement even if it will cause me and my parents to disinherit me. I don’t care! My parents were already controlling Chloe’s life and I won’t let them do it to me too. I start

  • Between Two Titans   Chapter 108-Escaping from everyone.

    Vivienne I was surprised to see that Mom was home when I came. I thought she’ll going to scold me for coming home late but she just asked me if I wanted to drink milk before going upstairs. “Why are you still awake? Were you waiting for me?” I felt guilty about that. I waited for nothing while keeping my Mom awake and waiting for me to come home. I am sure Vianna told her I went to my classmate’s birthday party. Mom gave me a soft smile. “I can’t sleep. That’s it.” Her voice was sad. I went to the counter top and sat across from her. I realized our things were packed. Why did she pack it? “What’s the matter, Mom? Is everything alright?” She smiled at me again. Then her tears rolled down. “We paid for the next month’s rent, right?” I nodded. “Actually, we pa

  • Between Two Titans   Chapter 107-Their engagement.

    Vivienne We were starting to enjoy the party when the center stage was suddenly lightened up. The host took the microphone and started the show. He first presented the birthday celebrant, then the parents of Szane. I don’t know what else he was talking about but it seems to me that the party wasn’t all about the birthday celebrant but also the announcement of how their family businesses were going. “Raylie, your Mom asked me to bring you to their table.” Loki said. He just came from somewhere after taking a call. “They were here?” Raylie asked, confused. “You didn’t know?” He threw his head back then turned to me. I don’t know what to say. Raylie took my hand and pulled me to stand up. “Come. I’ll introduce you to my parents.” I started to panic and slipped my hands from his grasp.

  • Between Two Titans   Chapter 106-The party.

    VivienneIt’s the night of the party. Raylie picked me up at the expensive salon he rented to accommodate my needs. Well, I don’t need anything to get fixed. A light makeup and slight curls in my hair were just enough. I don’t want anything fancy. But all the simplicity I wanted had been covered with the elegance of the red gown that Raylie bought for me.Even the stilettos stand out. I don’t usually use heels but I guess, the occasion asked for it. I once wished to dress up like how I did before. And I guess, tonight is the best time to do it.“Gosh! Your prince was already waiting for you, Ms. Alfonso. Hurry up!”Suzette called out for me. She’s the one who did my hair and make up.“Thanks for everything, Ms. Suzette.” I said with a wide smile, giving my reflection a final glance.
