Captivating Engineer's Heart Chapter 10
I didn’t realize the time I woke up. When I looked at the clock on my study table, I woke up immediately. It's only eight o'clock and an hour, my first subject.I searched for my cellphone to blame. Its alarm is set everyday based on my class schedule so I was surprised because it didn't ring, I didn't wake up early. I saw my phone just next to my pillow. I turned it on but it still can't open."My gosh, battery low!"I no longer wasted time charging it. I'll just charge in the classroom later. I'll just bring a charger. After all, I'm not afraid to charge secretly there.I went straight to the bathroom and first looked at my face in the mirror. I touched my cheek and focused my gaze on my two bulging eyes.There's a trace that I cried last night.I'll just cover it up with make-up later so no one will notice.I hastened to shower and get dressed. After tidying myself up, I went downstairs to have breakfast for a while. I already feel hungry. I didn’t eat last night because I was feel

“Do you Johann Caleb Vergara, take Maria Brittany Sarmiento to be your lawful wife, promising to love and cherish, through joy and sorrow, sickness and health, and whatever challenges you may face, for as long as you both shall live?”Even though I knew it was a fake ceremony, I still could not help but be nervous. I feel it is all true. I feel like Caleb and I are really getting married. Everything is realistic. All the things around us are like those seen at a wedding. Even the Priest’s dress was realistic as well as what Caleb and I were wearing. What is missing is our parents and other important people in our life who will witness the most important day in our lives together.Caleb and I face the Priest and listen to what he says. My full attention was on the Priest and Caleb alone. I can no longer hear the noise from my friends and classmates because they have been thrilled before. Is it really like this? The happiness of one is the happiness of all? That is what we call class un

“Brittany, your birthday is coming up. What’s your plan?” Dad asked in the middle of our breakfast.He just came home last night from their 3 days business trip. Dad also won't go to work today to rest. That's better because it is dangerous when Dad is overworked.He needs to rest, he deserves that because of his hard work and determination in our business.Ever since Mom passed away, Daddy's world has revolved around work and me. He no longer tried to recognize Mom’s replacement. I said that it is okay with me if he likes something. He deserves to be happy and I don't mind that. But even if I force Dad, he really doesn't want to. He didn’t want to replace Mommy. He is so loyal to the point that even without Mom, she and she are the only ones my Daddy will love.That's why Dad's attention is focused on managing our business. This is all he focuses on. Though busy at work, he never disappoints me to give his attention to me, even the luxurious things that I want, he always gives it to

"What time does the event start later, Bri?"My classmates approached me after our last subject. They are asking me now what time my birthday party will start. I will celebrate tonight and almost all of them were excited, especially the women. Probably because I invited students I knew from the other well-known Universities, and that school is exclusive for boys only. So they are very happy, especially Kez and Reign, they will be noticed again tonight and meet some guys to be flirted with. This is the main reason why they are here. They know that I know a lot of people from different universities who will attend the birthday party. And one more thing, I just got ready to party at our house again. I would rather choose as I am the only one attending their houses.“8:00 PM is the start and it is definitely okay to be late. The guard of our village will still let you all in because Dad has already told them about the event. Just give this invitation to the guard as proof that you’re invi

It's been two days since Caleb confessed to me but the smile still lingers on my lips. Friday night was memorable to me, it was my birthday and it was also the day that Caleb admitted how he felt for me. Everything that happened that night seemed like a dream that was impossible to happen but fortunately, it did happen! I never thought I would experience such a thing. I experienced feeling that I was important, he sincerely felt for me and he showed how much he really liked me. In that way, he indeed proved himself to me.When a man really loves you, you don’t have to ask them what they should do because they themselves will take the initiative to do that thing that they know will make you happy. There's no need to order them on the things that they will do.It's Sunday night today and tomorrow, I'll see Caleb again. Every weekend, Caleb doesn't come here and he's just at their house. He and his brother are the only two who are expected to take care of Uncle Dante and their Mother's h

"I'm sorry, Bri." His voice was full of remorse and conscience. He has not yet been able to face me and look straight into my two eyes. It was like the weight of the sin he had committed against me.As far as I know, he has done nothing wrong to me. Wait? What if he really has faults with me but he just doesn’t say it? Is he hiding something from me that is his fault?But what is that? And then do I have the right to be angry?I turned to him to find out why he was sorry. "For what?" I asked him because I was confused.He sighed before he answered me. “I didn't pick you up yesterday. I think I waited for you a long time before I called you. I'm sorry I didn't tell you earlier.”I smiled. I wondered what was his fault. Just for that? His sin is superficial, but his reaction is too much, it seems like I can't forgive him.I just don't care that he didn't pick me up yesterday. I understand if there is an emergency. I understand if an important person was with him yesterday.Reign knows h

I can't relax in my seat. Since earlier I was looking around at their table. The hunger I felt before was gone because I also lost my appetite to eat after what happened.My attention was just on the two of them. The fun they had while eating lunch while I, I hadn’t even touched the food in front of me. I have really lost my appetite because of what I see now. Who doesn't? Caleb's smile was steady as he spoke to that woman I had just seen. In Caleb's reaction, it seemed like he had known it for a long time. That's exactly what I think.“Bri, it's not eyes that get full. The stomach should be full this lunch break. Eat instead of wasting time looking at Caleb and the woman he's talking to now. Don't waste the food you ordered.” Reign scolded me in the middle of her meal.After I found out the name of the woman with Caleb, I couldn’t help but feel insecurities. Add to that its almost perfect physical appearance, my insecurities will really eat me up. After all, I have nothing against T

"Did you hear the news?" As soon as I entered our classroom, a group of my classmates opened up to me. They all formed a large circle in the middle so they could talk face to face. "Franco is one of the two who is said to be a transferee and Trisha is said to be the other. I don’t know what’s their connection but they said they met and they came home from the States at the same time. It’s like there’s something in them, isn’t it?”This is them again giving the issue to everything that is happening. Even if they don’t have enough proof to justify their conclusions, they still think about what their judgments are.I quietly walked to my seat. They didn’t notice me passing by their side because they were still busy talking. I also don't want them to know that I have entered because it is likely that all their attention will go to me and they will never stop asking me questions. I was not in the mood to answer their questions.“But I saw that woman yesterday in the cafeteria with Caleb. T

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!

"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
