It took me another seconds to process who the owner of this voice is before I cleared my thorat and sat straight on the couch while transferring my phone to my other ear.

“Alaric?” I asked.

He chuckled from the other line. “I am sorry. I am using my friend’s phone to call you since I still haven’t got the chance to upgrade for plan, but I am just trying to ask if you are free this afternoon?”

I move my eyes around the place while thinking if how will I going to tell him that I have to pack some things and starting our Thesis paper is not in my sched today. And if he wants us to start it today, I still haven’t read the materials anyway so how am I going to add ideas and parts for equal loads?

“Uhm, I am kinda free but I am already inside my unit. I don’t have any class this afternoon that is why I went home early.” I said while playing the thread of this throw pillow that I am using. &ldq

    My eyes widen in surprise before it moves to look at Alaric who is also looking at my phone. I cleared my throat to collect all my excuses before forcing a laugh. “I am sorry for the sudden disturbance. He just keeps on calling me because he is from my hometown.” I said, trying not to look like guilty.Will he think about our Professor in Literature? Am I too guilty for saying that. I heave a sigh inside, thankful that I changed his name on my contacts. It was the best decision so far yet confusing also because people might take it as Damian, the freaking literature professor.Alaric smiled at me. “It’s fine. Go on, answer it.”I shake my head before swiping he screen down to decline the call and put it on silent mode. I look back at Alaric and found him raising both of his brows up with a playful smile. “You are not answering his call?”I flash a another fake smile before grabbing the book back to continue readin

    I look from behind before going out and grab his arm away from the door but Damian stop, making me stop as well.“Where are you taking me?” He asked, both of his brows aligned.“Alaric is inside, are you out of your mind?”He look behind then shrug his shoulder nonchalantly as if he is not worried about it.“Why does it looks like I am the second man here when in fcat I am the boyfriend?”My forehead creases, looking up at him. “You are impossible…”“You said you are going to your cousin? He is your cousin now?”“I did not go through it because I have things to get here.” I told him.“Get who? Alaric?”Because of that, I groaned out of frustration before bulging my eyes at him. ‘Seripously, what do you want here?”“We are going home.”“What? We are not through yet, come on, Dawson!”

    “Are you really sure that you want me to discuss to you the summary of that book?” I asked Mister Dawson while he is seriously driving his car, both eyes on the road.He then later give me a light glance before shrugging his shoulder. “Why not? At least you have free discussion with me about your Thesis.” He conceitedly uttered, making me growl and look outside, hiding a smile.“We are already halfway in our first chapter but okay.” I started. “Scout Finchlives with her brother,Jem, and their widowed father,Atticus, in the sleepy Alabama town of Maycomb. Maycomb is suffering through the Great Depression, but Atticus is a prominent lawyer and the Finch family is reasonably well off in comparison to the rest of society.” I started discussing while not looking at Mister Dawson. I am afraid that I might forget what I was reading yesterday when I look at on his eyes. It just feel so off looking at him on the

    ”Are you supposed to be mad or you are just letting everything pass by even though you know that you are missing a sub?” I asked while putting my hair into a ponytail.Everleigh and I are inside a bowling center because I invited her. I was just trying to call her but the woman answered her phone call and agreed to join me in here. And for the record, she still has a class after lunch time but she chose me.Sweet. I thought before fixing my hair one more time and look at her who is seriously throwing balls but it all ended up going in the gutter, making her groan.I chuckled. “Why are you so frustrated?”She look at me on the eyes before sighing. “Nathan is being such a pain in the as$ since earlier. We were so happy yesterday!” Leigh annoyingly exclaimed, making me part my lips.“Are you gonna stay annoyed during our whole stay here?” I asked, picking a ball from the basket ri

    I went silent.“Even though we all know here that you got someone in your life now, despite the fact that it happened so fast on how you found somebody else, I am not dumb enough not to notice how some parts of you went missing after what happened.”I blink my eyes for how many times, looking away.“I did not became your best friend for nothing.” She added before I felt her holding my hand. I return back her gaze before I show Leigh a little smile.“I am fine, Leigh.” I said but she shook her head with a bitter smile. “Do you love Mister Dawson as much as how you loved Elric?”I went silent because of what she ask.I force a laugh after a few seconds then look away from Everleigh. My eyes are darted outside the car while I still can feel Leigh's gaze on mine. After a few more moments of silence, the car started moving, a sign that the light turned green already. I cleared my throat before I bow

    ”You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view-until you climb into his skin and walk around in it,’’ I read loudly, making Everleigh look up at me. “This means how sometimes unless you are someone you can’t fully understand them and how they feeling and behaving. Atticus explains to Scout that caring about others will help Scout understand them more. It will help Scout further understand why something may be happening. Also, Miss Maudie also explains how the Mockingbirds in the trees help further understand life lessons. Miss Maudie states, “Mockingbirds don’t do nothing but make music for us to enjoy… they don’t do one thing but sing our hearts out for us” She chuckled and look at me weirdly. “Don’t tell me lessons, I have still business calculus to deal with.” My best friend muttered before she goes back down on her book. I shake my head, watching how she scramble automatically so I get back on the site I use for reference a

    "What does this man want this time?" I frustratedly exclaimed as I slowly move back towards the bench and even heard Rael laughing at me. It was the slowest part of my life, moving away from the skating rink, just to pick up the phone call that this unexpected guy is doing. After a few seconds, I then feel someone's hold on my arm so I look on my side just to see Levi giving me the assistance I was not asking but he still help me out back. "Did you told him that we are going out tonight?" He asked which made me shake my head. Why would I even tell him? He knows exactly that we are not really together so I guess, we only need each other when something came up but he didn't remind me of something, like if Tito Albert would be around or what. Levi smirked so I look at him. "Well, I guess you have to learn the basics of a relationship." I made a face. "Basics, what? That's silly." I stated while removing my shoes.

    "I think we are here." I look up when Levi said that so I look outside and true to his words, he is now parking outside Mister Dawson's place and the light are all lit inside. I pick my things from the backseat but before closing the book, I folded the page where I left reading and look at Levi once again. "Do you want to eat dinner inside? We can order fo–" "No, I am fine. I can order some back in the condo. Make sure that you'll eat your dinner, okay?" I nod my head before I lean forward to kiss him on the cheek. I then went out, watching him drive away but he stop and blow me a horn before opening the window. "You go get inside now." Levi said making me laugh. "I will if you'll leave." He gave me a boring look. "No, you go first." "Come on, Elliot. Go ahead, I'll watch you off–" "Dionne." Levi and I both look at each other when we heard that voice. I look behind and saw Mis

    Maybe they are right when it rains on your parade, rainbow will soon to occur after a long journey of heavy rains. I have been wishing for a Prince Charming on a right time with a Cinderella-like love story to pacify my standards. But never thought that I would be no like Cinderella because I was born to create my own story and find my Prince Charming on my own silly way.“Gosh, I don’t feel my make-up today.” I mumbled while watching myself in front of the mirror.Leigh, who is also fixing herself, growled. “Shut up, preggy, you look good already.”I immediately cup my belly after Leigh said that. My baby is six months now, three way to go before we’ll finally see him. And yes, it’s a boy. Damian was so happy after we had our gender reveal celebration last month. I could not help but to chuckle on what my love story looks like. Did not know that being in a total heartbreak can lead a person to another roller-coaster love story that I thought, will fail as well like the usual. Who wou

    Did not know why I am back on my hometown alone after spending a day with my friends. Earlier, I was laughing with them to cast all my worries away not until I am finally left alone inside that house. I have never been so empty my life, maybe I was devastated after Elric broke up with me but what Damian did is more painful. I was not expecting a Prince Charmng anymore, contented on how he is to me, but guess I am failed by my own thoughts again. I spent weeks on hiding my pain but this time, I could not take it anymore. Never thought that after hours of good times and laughter, will lead me to this kind of misery. I guess we really should not be too happy or else we’ll be sad longer.I am currently in the same place I was before but this time, I am here because not because I fought with someone but because I failed to love one more time.Earlier, after my friends left, I notice that Damian weren’t at home—even his car. I guess he is out again to wherever he is going. I bent my knees f

    Days and weeks passed by so fast. Damian and I maintained the distance, we did not talk like the usual. We just talk about the improvements of the baby, nothing more personal. I have been hiding crying under the sheets for weeks now as well but I woke up feeling a lot better than the previous day. I kept reminding myself to be strong for this little me inside me and that I should continue this damn of a hell-hole.Today, it’s Friday. Leigh and Alaric would be coming here after class so I prepared and ordered foods for us. Damian already said himself that I can definitely treat this house as my own, so inviting my friends would not be a big deal. In fact, he even went to pay Aubrey a visit on their rented unit last day so I think we are both fair towards each other. I cup my belly when my stomach growl. I check for the time and sees it’s almost twelve in the afternoon already so I grab some few slices from the steak I ordered from Denvi’s place. I go on my monthly check up as well and

    Like what we really want to do, Alaric and I are now looking at the sandbar from a far. People there are enjoying their little vacation, perhaps some of these are students who just finished their term exam. We are both leaning on his car while we are on the side way. Silence envelopes us for long minutes now, no one is talking. We just enjoyed our company without necessary words to speak. I know that there are lots of question running through his head, even I.Questions like, why? Where did we go wrong? Did I trust him too much? Was I that gullible? And lastly, why is he treating Aubrey unlikely? But the latter seems cool seeing us yesterday—like the first day I saw her. I do not know if was I too stupid not to notice or there is really something going on between Damian and I.A loud sigh escape from my lips before tilting my head. “Aren’t you hungry?” I asked to break the silence, remembering that we never had our lunch still. Well, I was about to. But never thought I would be seeing

    It’s already eight in the evening when Alaric sent me home after hours of riding the car near the sea side. After Damian left earlier, Alaric invited me for a drive for me to ease the burden feeling I was dealing with earlier. Unlike what Damian said, I did not wait for him back there. And now, as I head inside the n=entrance of the house, the lights from the living room are already off except upstairs. I took a heavy breath while going towards the kitchen and drink a glass of water. I lean for a few seconds on the counter before removing my blazer as I walk upstairs, burnt out and with a heavy heart.I check the balcony of Damian is there but he wasn’t so I am sure he is inside his room. I turn the knob right and sees him reading a book on his table. He look up at me and sigh before going back to the book he is reading.That’s it. I don’t want bullsh8ts while we share the same sheets.I walk straight towards him and put the test result I had few days ago. I saw him looking at the two

    I have been sitting on top of the toilet inside our room for long minutes now. The kit is still inside the box after I tested myself right away I arrived home and now, I am afraid and confuse at the same time on how I am going to react by the result. I take a deep a slow deep breath before closing my eyes as I move the kit out from the box.“Oh my god.” I whispered as I decided to open my eyes.My lips parted at the sight of two red lines being shown and my hands immediately shaken, mind starting to process in haywire.“Fck.” I cussed out of deep breath. I then remain my posture to calm my nerves down before I went out from the comfort room just to sat back down on top of the bed. “Oh my god, it did not change.” I even mumbled, sounding so stupid on how I reacted.“Mommy…” I mumbled once again before tearing up. I then realize why I am crying so I immediately fan my face using my hands. “Heck.” I sniff before looking around.Should I tell Damian immediately? Everleigh? The rest of my

    I thought that the supposedly lunch won’t take longer that what I expected but I guess not. Alaric and I are both panting as we head out inside a hunted castle in the amusement park. I do not know what pushes me to invite him here but I just feel like going in here, did not really expect that he’ll go with me.Few seconds passed when I saw him offering me a tumbler of water, moving it to and fro in front of my face. “Here.”My gaze shifted towards him confusedly. “You already drank in here.” I muttered, reminding him that he already used this and I don’t think it’s appropriate for me to use it as well, knowing that he used it first-hand.He chuckled. “Right. It was so stupid of me not to realize that.” He mumbled before looking around the area. “You wait here. I’ll find some stores that sells water.”I am about to stop him and would be the one to look for one but Alaric already walked away. I look around with a smile on my face before putting the tumbler down on my side, giggling upon

    The next day, Alaric and I still decided to see each other. We are still in Damian’s place as what Alaric also suggested so that we can ask assistance for Damian today. We are almost done on our Thesis which is an advantage so that we don’t have to worry anymore after finals. “Should I talk with Damian instead? I have just few questions to ask.” Alaric said in the middle of our silence. I look at him and he is seriously typing on his laptop while not looking at me. I then turn around to look upstairs before nodding my head. “Sure, if you want to.” I simply mumbled before I fix few useless papers on the carpet. Alaric just nod my head, not responding anymore. Few more minutes has passed one more time when he stand up. I follow him with my gaze as he started roaming around. “Uh, are you seeing him now?” He shake his head with a smile. “No, I was about to ask if you guys can print out papers here.” I immediately nod my head and stand up. “Of course. Damian has upstairs. He should no

    I shake my head a little while biting my lips. I watch him as his throat slowly move up and down while looking shock at the house in front where I told him to park. “This is our Professor’s place. Why are we here?” Oh my god how did he know Damian’s place? “H-Ho—“ I tried as much not to stuttered but the way he reacted made me lost my right mind to think immediately. I watch him as he went out the car so I followed him. “Let’s talk inside, Alaric.” I mumbled in a whisper before I swipe the card key to the small gate. I heard him gasp from behind but I did not turn to look at him or how he reacts because I know for sure he is confused and I am as well. How did he know that this is Damian’s place? “Wait, Dionne---“ I face him just we are about to enter the entrance of the house. I rub my temple as I look for words on how to tell him. A deep sigh came out from me before I finally raise my gaze up at him. “Damian is my boyfriend…” I whispered, looking at him under my eyelids, worri
