I felt my head ache when I opened my eyes. The weight of my head and I was really dizzy. I also can not explain why I am nauseous.

I even frowned because the sunlight from the glass window on the side of my bed hit my eyes. I could do nothing but wake up.

"Oh no!" I rubbed my forehead as I realized what time it was. I did not set my alarm so I forgot I had to wake up early.

I looked at my wall clock, reason to scold me again. I am late for work! Dad was probably looking for me in my office. He would scold me when he found out I got drunk last night and I woke up late. There's a high chance he won't let me go to Rocca Bar next time.

Even if I wanted to get up, I could not because the headache I am feeling right now is holding me back, it’s probably a hangover. I remember what happened last night. I was drinking too much. I could not control myself. I lost my sanity last night. I made a mess!

What I don't remember is how did I get home last night?

Was I able to drive drunk? Impossible!

    "Hey, Keziah! Just wait…" I shouted loudly to stop her from coming out of the classroom door. "I said, wait for me!"We had just finished class on a major subject and almost all of my classmates were leaving. Keziah, my friend, was leading the way. When we're talking about going home, she is the top one. She will quickly get her bag and leave the room. It seems like there was no friend to wait for.I grabbed my charger and my cell phone plugged into the extension on the side where I was seated. It's really good and I'm sitting here next to the outlet so I can charge secretly. I didn't waste any more time putting the charger in my bag. I ran out while holding my charger and cell phone.I caught Keziah outside the door while leaning against the wall. It's good and he's still kind enough to wait for me. I thought she went home already."What the—! Can you hide the charger you're holding? Our professor might notice you, and then you'll find out you're charging in the classroom," she said,

    I was drowsy when I stepped out of my soft bed. If my cellphone hadn't just rang because I set an alarm in my 2-drawer dresser next to the bed, I wouldn't have woken up. I had to hear it three more times before I was fully awake.I was still drowsy after sleeping for 9 hours.I immediately went to my room's bathroom and showered. My uniform was ready, so I quickly dressed and examined myself in the full-length mirror in front of my bed. I also curled the tips of my naturally curly hair. I also use light make-up to enhance my natural beauty.I was holding onto my mobile phone before going. I read the flood of messages from the men with whom I flirted last week.Why are they still contacting me after I've already ghosted them?"Why should I feel guilty?" I asked after turning off my phone. "I know they'll ghost me too; I was just doing it early."Because our school uniform had no pockets, I put it in my backpack. The gray high waist pleated skirt is slightly above the knee and has a yel

    "So, what is it? I know you're an expert in flirting, but don't you think it's too fast? You only met him yesterday, like hello? You should be on getting to know each other first before it will level up."Keziah doesn't stop asking me questions, but I still don't answer those. I just remained silent as I walked until we could get inside the classroom, she still followed me and didn’t stop."So? What should I do? I'll pretend that I'm hard to get? Oh come on, Kez, I can't find it in my vocabulary. Besides, I'm just being an advanced thinker. That's where we're going too." I reluctantly put my bag on the chair.She also sat down next to me. "Oh, that's what you're not sure about. What if he's already committed to someone?"I turned to her and shot her an evil look."Kez!" She pissed me off. I was nervous because what she said might come true. "Take it back, hey!"She just laughed at me.Isn't she going to take back what she said?"I hope Sir Taxation has a girlfriend, and I hope he gets

    I excitedly picked up my cellphone on the bed and immediately opened the messages of Keziah and Reign. I was so nervous yesterday, it took me until night to float because of the excitement that Caleb gave after he got on board pretending to be my boyfriend just to escape the person I was hosting. That's why I couldn't talk to my two friends.I immediately opened the group chat of the three of us. They had messages last night and I didn't hesitate to backread. Aside from the fact that I'm lazy, I know that the two of them are talking about their crushes again.I don't know what's up to them. Out of the many listed on their crush list, none of them has passed on their standards to become their boyfriend. I'm planning to do a seminar for the two of them. Maybe it might help. You know, I wanted them to enter into a relationship so that they will stop teasing me with other boys.I started a new topic.Brittany Sarmiento:"Omg! Guess what?"I saw Keziah immediately typing it well right away

    “Hi! Good Morning,” I greeted him as he entered the dining area.As usual, he still ignored me. He just passed me by and didn’t even close my eyes. He went straight to the kitchen to get Aunt Elisha the key to the new car that Dad had bought the other day. That's why Caleb is here on Saturday. He accompanied Dad to purchase the royal blue 2021 Jaguar XF that Caleb was going to use to pick me up. The car that Uncle Dante and I used was old, so Dad decided to buy a new one.Dad left early so I had breakfast alone. Aunt Elisha didn't want to join me because she wasn't hungry yet.I turned my back when I heard the kitchen door open. It spat out the cold and rugged Caleb. Their Maroon Engineering uniform is perfectly fitted for him. The cleanliness of her look that he was wearing. You wouldn't think he was a driver because of his good looks."Are you done?" he asked as he stopped in front of me and glanced at the food in front of me.I nodded. "Yes.""Then, let's go."Instead of following

    "I thought you couldn't come with me?" I asked while he’s driving.I looked out the window. It’s already 9:20 PM and many more people are hanging out. The others we passed were just waiting for a ride because maybe they just got out of work.There is no traffic at this time so it is not boring. I just remained silent and busy seeing the street lights outside the window.We were in Rocca in about 20 minutes. I also called Keziah and she said that Reign and I had been there before. It's not obvious that the two of them really just want to hang out there and not because they want to help me to enjoy and forget about my failure in the quiz. They wanted to flirt with some students who came from another University.“It’s my duty as your personal driver. I can’t help but take you and pick you up,” he replied coldly.I smiled. “Really? That's it? No malice or other reason why you're here? Don't be shy to admit. You, Caleb! You're having a crush on me, too, right?”I looked out the window and

    "So, come on, tell us what really happened last night?" Keziah couldn't bear to ask. She came to my seat immediately after class. She left her stuff in her armchair just to gossip with me.Last night she was teasing me in the chat but I didn't answer because I was too lazy to talk. I know I'll just repeat it the next day because Reign will also ask questions.That's why I decided to tell a story later when the three of us had lunch break."Awful! Leigh is really obsessed with you, isn't he?" Leigh was the Nursing student who molested me last night and the guy was also punched by Caleb. "That's crazy! You told him to stop you but he's still chasing like a mad dog," Keziah added.We are currently in the cafeteria and my two friends are constantly criticizing the man who molested me.If I only knew that that asshole guy had such a habit, I wish I hadn't entertained him in the first place. That's not the attitude he showed when I just talked to him. He is kind and a gentleman when we're i

    “Message me if there’s a problem, okay?”I nodded to Dad in response. I only woke up because Dad meant to wake me up to say goodbye. They said they had a business trip and it would take three days, so Dad just told me some advice and reminders while he's on their trip. Well, he just making sure that I won't do any stupid things.He’s like this whenever he is out of town, never running out of reminders for me. Out of sheer concern, he wanted to take me on his business trips but that was not possible so he would just feed me instructions and reminders of what I should not do while he was away.“Dad, I won’t do anything that can harm me. So, just chill and focus on your business trip.” I gave an assurance to stop him from worrying. “Besides, Manang Elisha is there to take care of me. You don't have to worry."I know how to behave without Dad. I'm not like others who party at their house when their parents are on a business trip. Almost invited all my schoolmates and got drunk overnight.

    "Bri, I am really sorry," Kez opened on the other line. “You know I can not leave this pile of paperwork. I will even work overtime later just to finish it. I am really chasing the deadline for submission of my paper works. This week is so stressful for me!” she added.It was five o'clock in the afternoon and I was planning to go home but I chose to hang out in the office for a while to call my two friends. I still have a few people with me because some of them are working overtime.I invite Reign and Kez to come to Rocca tonight.I called Kez first but it seemed vague that she would go because she said she had piles of paperwork that she needed to finish. The other day she told me she was busy this week. She always complains but she still does. I understand her because I know how hard it is to pile up paper works because that's how I work now. Especially when the deadline is near, rushing is really what you do. You have no choice but to do that.We have also graduated for almost two

    Six months ago I tried to let Caleb know about Trisha’s lying but I just failed. He didn't even waste time listening to me. He did not let me explain. Even though it was my last chance to talk to him, I hope he still gave in to me. If that's what he wants, I'll let him. I will not disturb them anymore. I can only tell all of Trisha’s lies, I don’t care what her decision may be. I will no longer question him whether he will still stay with Trisha or he will just leave it. Even if he doesn't come back to me. What matters is that he knows the truth.But I was not able to explain everything to him because he deprived me of the opportunity."Bri, let's go."I looked up at Keziah when she asked me to leave the classroom because we had been dismissed. I didn't feel like getting up and then took my bag. I followed her outside.We walked out of the classroom together.We didn’t go straight to the parking lot right away. Kez and I waited for a while for Reign in the forest. We went home earlier

    “I need those fake medical documents as soon as possible, how many times can I tell you that? That’s what I had to show Caleb to get the two of us married early because I couldn’t wait any longer. I need to hurry up with our wedding before Caleb thinks twice and goes back to Brittany. So please, make a way right away because I'm paying you a lot. Caleb must believe that I am seriously ill so you can fix what you put there in the documents or if it is better, you can say that my life is fixed so that there is a reason for us to get married right away.”Out of panic, I accidentally grabbed myself by the door causing it to create noise. I feel very nervous right now. What if she finds out she’s not alone in the bathroom? What if she found out that I had overheard them talking to the person she was talking to on her cell phone.Trisha stopped speaking. She heard me slam the door. She wondered if anyone was here. "Who is that?" There was a hint of nervousness in her voice. But I feel twice

    “Are you sure you’re coming in now?” I was fixing my hair in front of the mirror when Keziah asked. Reign was next to it and they were also busy arranging the uniform they were wearing. She just closes the button of her blouse.Here they slept last night just to accompany me. After Franco took me home, the two of them arrived. They already bought some clothes that they will use and even the bag and other things they need for school they also brought because we went straight to University when we woke up in the morning. It's not new for my friends to sleep here. Any day or time they come here to sleep. But now I expected that because they wouldn’t let me cry alone.I am very thankful because Dad came home late last night so he didn't know what was happening to me. I also breathed a sigh of relief to learn that Dad also left early today because most likely, he would notice me if we happened to have breakfast together. I still find it hard to lie to Dad. I’m just quick to feel guilty so

    “What is it, Reign? Do you already have contact with the guy you saw in Siargao?” Keziah asked as we walked towards the cafeteria. Lunch break is over and we will go straight there to eat. While walking, we couldn’t help but talk about what had happened the day before.Disgusted Reign chuckled. “Not yet! I still don’t know his name until now. How can I know his details if I haven't talked to him? My opportunity was lost! I wish I had just rubbed my face just to know what his name was. If only I weren't so shy!”The man they were referring to was the one we saw when we stopped at a souvenir shop before returning to Manila. To have a memento that we have been to that place, of course the souvenirs will not be lost. We all bought and also included in what we bought other things that could be counterproductive.It was in that shop that Reign also saw the man. In our prediction, he was one of the staff at that shop because he was one of those who assisted us. He was the one we talked to wh

    "Kez, get up there!" Reign almost threw all the pillows at our friend who was still lying in bed. She was still sound asleep and did not want to disturb any of us. She would even get angry when we made noise because she didn’t want to be disturbed.“Please stop, Reign! I'm still sleepy,” she whispered. She even pushed herself covered with a blanket.It was only six in the morning but Reign and I were awake. After all, Keziah had almost occupied the whole bed. We just need to sleep on the floor and Kez will make this queen size bed. She was very sleepy. You can tell she doesn't want anyone next to her to sleep with because she still lacks a queen size bed. It's embarrassing to stand next to Kez.There is nothing we can do if we don't get up and fall to the floor. We just let him take over the entire bed space. We just realized that that's how he really sleeps. We don't want to complain. We just sat on the couch and waited for Kez to wake up.We also heard Franco's friends talking outsi

    “Really? Isn not your rest house in Siargao? Kez almost screamed in ecstasy. “Omg! We all are going there, am I right?” She is still making sure of it.Franco nodded. "Yeah, we're going to our rest house in Siargao."My two friends screamed in excitement. They can't hide their happiness, me as well.October 28 is tomorrow and that is Franco's birthday. He’s turning 21 tomorrow! Friday is tomorrow and we decided to be absent to celebrate Franco's birthday for 2 nights at their rest house. It's not a hell week so there aren't many activities so it's okay to be absent for just one day. Also, Franco informed our instructors. They can't get away because they know Franco, he's just the son of the owner of this University. He can make everyone obey if he wants to.“Let's go home right away, Kez. I still need to fix my things and then I will buy a new bikini. I have to go there, maybe I can see my one there,” said Reign who was immediately agreed by Keziah.I'm glad that finally, my two frien

    A white ceiling opened up to me when I opened my eyes. I couldn’t look at the whole surroundings because I could feel the weight of my head. I couldn’t even move it because of the extreme pain and weight. I just remained lying and staring at the ceiling. My head seemed to pull when I turned around and it would make me very dizzy. I can't explain the various pains I feel all over my body.I just remained staring at the white ceiling. I try to remember how I got to this place. I remember what happened last to me.Where am I now?What am I doing here?This is not my room because this is not the design of my room. My room does not have a white ceiling. Almost everything in my room is pink so it's impossible for me to be at home now."B-Bri?" Keziah's face looked up at me. Her eyes widened when our eyes met because she confirmed that I was awake and my consciousness had returned. "You're awake! Wait, I'll call the Doctor. Don’t worry because I’m just fast. I just need to let you know that
