Merliah's Point of View
--------------------
Two days had passed, it had been two days since he kicked me out of his office. That crazy scene I caused had not been out because no one knew of that silly thing I did, aside from and dean, there's none. I heard when two people's lips are touched, the person being kissed will desperately look for its kisser.
‘Max, I know you are thinking of that kiss. You will be addicted to my lips. Fall for me, you nitpicky and arrogant Dean.’
“Uhuh, what's with that wicked smile?" says Lore while poking my waist.
I was about to make a statement when the professor entered the room.“We are going to have a pre-assessment test to measure your knowledge of my subject. Get 1 whole sheet of the yellow pad. This will be recorded in your attendance and assignment.”
Surprise attack, the heck. She did not give us a heads up, would it hurt if she told us to prepare because she will conduct the examination at the next meeting. Arghhhh, darn it! What if I got a low score because I haven't touched any of my reviewers yet?
I am guilty of being a brazen woman, and still have my dignity in university. I don't have the intention to ruin my studies. I'm fine if I'm not the best, I'm fine with a grade as long it's not three. I'm not bragging but I am a President’s lister. Of course, I won't flirt if I'm a stupid piece of shit. Flirting should be balanced with studies, before flirting you should know your limit, if you are way too stupid than me, then better not flirt at all.
Going back, our subject today is Public administration. The questions are easy... I think? Well, it depends on the expectation of the professor. This university has been a top notch university that molds competitive students, meaning to say we are more than just a rich kid with a pretty face. So, if your gf or bf is Elysian, then you are fortunate, we are fully packaged.
Okay enough talking, the time is running I should start answering. I keep on reminding myself not to be distracted by any thought.
'Keep on answering, Batman will do the rest.'
My answers keep going in circles, but it's the secret in essay writing. You just have to pretend you know the subject well, and let the idea flow. While answering my exam, the dean's face appeared in my head. Haisst! I remember that time he kicked me out as if I'm moss. I don't know where this is coming from but I really hate him. I really have a bad impression of him on our first meeting. At that time, when my eyes laid on him, I was already irritated with him— crazy Liah. Sometimes, we will have someone we would hate, we will easily be irritated with just a mention of that person's name. That is exactly what I am feeling, I want to crush him between my thumbnails.
I was too occupied, too late when I noticed that I made a hole in my yellow pad. Shit! I'm almost done with my exam, I have to overdo it again because my lady professor is quite meticulous in the cleanliness of answer sheets. I still have ten minutes left before the collection of papers. I was a bit nervous at first, but I managed to finish it one minute before the due time.
“That will be for today, I will dismiss you early.” She collected the paper then left the classroom.
We still have thirty minutes, since we only used two hours and a half on that 300 items questionnaire. After dismissal, we headed to the cafeteria.
“Liah! Do you want tea, teh?!”
Everyone turned their gaze on us because of what Lore shouted. The hell, that mouth of hers, why did she have to say that word out loud without space between tea and teh, in short, it sounded the word 'TT' or penis in English. It sounded so wrong, this girl, she really embarrassed me in a cute way, well, whatever. She's my friend and we flock together, so I shouted back. “Yeh, I want a big one!”
Most first years in the cafeteria whispered among themselves. I stood up and went to Lore. She handed me the milk tea, just when I was about to fully remove the lid of the plastic cup, I made a huge mistake. We are about to leave the cafeteria, I have this habit of checking my food that is why I open the lid. Anyway, who is this shithead who blocked my way?
This incident is too cliché and stupid. Who is this stupid piece of shit that spilled her drinks to someone because her crazy evil incarnated bestfriend pushed her? Too bad, that person is me.
' I will kill you, Lorelei Buencamino. What the heck is wrong with this woman? She suddenly pushed me without warning. What if my face kissed the asphalt?!' She dare tried to ruin my visual, this is my weapon for god's sake. In this harsh world, pretty faces get all the credit, so what should I do if she ruined it?!
This person I spilled my tea on had cleared his throat, so I lifted my face to see who this man was, then boom, my eyes have been blessed. I immediately took my hanky from my pocket... knowing that I have a hidden agenda with this guy, expect me to be silly enough to walk my hand all over his chest. I revoke my anger towards my bestfriend, she really knows when to strike.
“That’s enough, Ms. Faunteen.” He shoved off my hands which were busy wiping the tip of his black coat. My eyes landed on his lips, then I recalled that time I kissed him. Should I kiss him again? It ain’t my fault, his lips are inviting me… “How’d you like the kiss-“ He cut me off by blocking my lips using his palm. I am just teasing him, I made sure that it's only the two of us who heard what I am about to say.
“Come to my office, Ms. Faunteen,” says Dean. He turned his back and walked away first. I winked on Lore before closing the gap between mine and the dean's footing. She waved back and left me a grinning smile, she looked so happy for someone who will lose 30k— crazy.
We didn't make a noise until we reached his office. I heard the clicking of his office, he locked it.
'Hmm… you didn't tell me that you wanted to be alone with me. I knew it, my charm is finally invading you. Tsk! I should have known that a kiss is an answer to get your attention. Well, obviously men are weak shit, they are easily lured."
“I don’t know what’s running in your filthy mind, Ms. Faunteen. I’m warning you; I’ll report you to the office for showing indecent acts.”
“You’re talking about that kiss, were you not? Do you think the board will believe you? You know how influential I am.”
“Why are you doing this to me? You are not revenging over that matter on our first day of class, right?”
“Of course not. Do you think I’m that immature? Let’s say I have taken interest in your looks. How about dating me secretly?”
Partly yes, call me immature or what, but I really don’t like what you did to me on that day. I don't know why I found it funny seeing him provoked made me happy. I can’t keep my eyes off… that deep green jewel is calling me to stare. His red pouty lips are asking me to kiss him.
Damn! I really hate my fragile trait when it comes to good-looking guys. Damn it, I really have a soft spot for handsome guys. Anyway, it's interesting and funny to chase him, he’s a good and challenging toy afterall.
“Do you hear yourself?! You vulgar thing!”
See that? He looked so manly and handsome when he raised his eyebrow. Kyaahhhh!!!! I want him to be mine for a certain time, of course, it's only for a certain time. I don't like commitments after all.
“I like you and you have no choice but to like me back. I will bother you for the rest of your life.”
What if he decided to resign? No, he needed this work in the first place. I heard this guy has a loan worth One million in our company. Yes, I did some background research, also I heard he accepted this job because of the salary. It's true that Elysian offers an ample amount for salary, also it would be hard on his part to leave this profession because the economy is quiet on the edge of death. I bet he wouldn't waste this opportunity to work at this prestigious school.
“Get out! I really hate spoiled brats. They always do as they please.”
“Alright, I’m leaving for now, will you please unlock the door?”
He unlocked the door, and just about the moment to close the door, I interrupted him. “Dean! You are mine,” says I in a low voice, then I hurriedly fly my way downstairs.
That is only the beginning... looks like this school year would be a lot of fun. I have my new toy and he is not just an ordinary toy, but a hard mode otome character.
--------------------------Maximillan's Point of View.--------------------------That brazen student of mine is causing my head to split into two. I don't know why she kept on pissing me off. That time when she caught me off guard and took advantage of me, she kissed me... I want to throw her outside of this building. It wasn't my first kiss, Of course, I almost got married three years ago. Speaking of my ex-fiancé, that itch woman…Anyway, let’s not talk about her. I can see the resemblance of that woman with that brat. They share the same playful vibes, both immature and trouble makers. I can see Ms. Fuanteen as a brat who always does as she pleases. She won’t back down; all I have to do is reject and have my guard
---------------------Merliah's Point of View.----------------------That damn dean! He dared ridicule me. Let’s see how upright you are Dean. I will flirt with you and let’s see how much self-control you have. He is the first person who lectured me without even knowing my intention for breaking that jerk’s heart. He is also the first to humiliate me!'You keep on asking for my attention, huh?'I shall give him a good show. Now that he saw how toxic I am, he will probably distance himself from me, it means chasing him is much challenging. It is much rewarding if his hate and disgust would turn into love and admiration. A love chasing game is much more desirable if it's challengin
------------------Merliah's Point of view.----------------“Psst… Maurice,” says I while sliding half of my body on his slightly opened door.“I told you not to call me by my name. Call me brother, where’s your manner? What do you need this time? Liah, Can't you see I'm busy reviewing my notes, so if you have too much to fool around, please exempt me, spare me this time," he replied.“Ts, you are such a snob. Acting like a woman on her red days does not suit you at all. Let me correct you, stop saying you are older because we are born on the same day, it just happened that you came out 20 minutes earlier.
----------Merliah’s Point of View.---------------'My beautiful Queen, please wake up!' That was my cute alarm clock.Gosh! It's already morning, here I am walking up; beautiful as usual. I stood up and spent enough time in my tub. After taking a bath, I attended breakfast with my parents. I wonder why they are still here and it's a miracle that we are complete in the dining, sharing breakfast. Usually, during this hour, they are nowhere to be found in the house because they have already gone to work. My dad is a company owner and my mom is the mayor of our locality.“How’s school so far?” Daddy asked.
------------------------------------Merliah's Point of view..----------------------------------I woke up before the buzzer of my alarm berserks. I am just excited to attend my class today because I had to see that snob dean of mine. Time to shine again, let's piss him off today. I came prepared in his class today, just in case he tried to humiliate me for not knowing the answer to his recitation.'Who would enter a war without weapons and arms, that would be a suicide.' I have to maintain my noble image, that is why I have to prove to him how brilliant I am.Looking in the body-sized mirror, I could not deny the beauty within me. I am really attractive even though I have no talent
--------------Merliah’s POINT OF VIEW---------------------------------------I did not expect him to embrace me, hello we are in the hallway next to my classroom. He pinched my nose and even pinch my cheeks too before kissing both sides. This sly best friend of mine is stealing kisses on my cheeks, but I don’t mind it since there’s no meaning in his action."Oh my god! Why are you flirting in public?!" It was Lore's sarcastic remark. She has a loudmouth, but that wasn't what called my attention, it was the dean's gaze to me from a short distance.Our eyes met...My heart started beating fast, maybe I
------------------------------------Merliah's Point of view----------------------------------Hi, Dean, my love. You told me that I can do whatever I want, which means you are allowing me to court you. I made a poem for you. I am allowing you to feel the thrill of love but never cringe.Can I be?If nothing last forever,Can I be your nothing?If you want to delete somethingCan I be your eraser?Even if you ask nothingI'll give you everything;
----------------------------Merliah's Point of view.--------------------------Your goddess Liah is fresh from the bath! I am not sleepy yet, so I decided to chit chat with Lore over the phone at the balcony of my room."What's the update? How are you, liah?"We are talking on cam in messeng*r so we can see each other's expressions.Since she asked how my day ended, my mind wandered around again. I swear the nervousness I felt that day in his office is still new to me. My heart almost burst at that time. Crazy as it may sound, but I can still smell his lingering scent, so manly!
