2024-10-29 19:42:56Cassidy wanted me to wait for them in the parking lot but I rejected the idea since it would take so much time to go out from there with the heavy traffic inside the parking area so even though it is still quite hot outside the mall, I waited for them there and stand on the other side where drop-off is allowed.
While waiting, I pick my phone from my hand bag to entertain myself and I am already in the middle of scrolling when the familiar voice from earlier is around once again and I could not help but to roll an eye before looking on the other side.
I just don’t want to talk with her and what’s the point? I mean, what else should we talk about? We are not close in the first place to have a certain topic in mind. And I don’t know. I just feel like something is off with Nicolette and I don’t want her around. I may be a little too judgemental but I don’t want to act in front of her as if we are good friends.

We arrived inside the subdivision where we grew up and Cassidy dropped me first in front of our house. Everleigh's is on the next block just few houses away and Cassidy's place is next to hers. I close the car's door before I wave a hand at them. "We'll wait for you after thirty minutes! Just when the two men will arrive." Cassidy exclaimed and I nod in response. She then drove away while I am still waving a hand before facing our white and grey themed house. I sigh. After months of not going home, I am finally here. The first place where I grew differently, the place where it contains my childhood stories and the place that witnessed me grow as a fine young lady. Chuckling, I take a step forward towards the gate. "Are they even inside?" I asked. I am about to press the doorbell when the gate opens itself, then a red Hyundai car slowly went out but stop eventually on my spot. The window rolls down, then I saw Dad who inside who is obvi

I’ve experienced many wins in life, but I’ve also had more than my share of losses. Some losses came through no fault of my own. However, many were of my own making, coming from bad choices and dumb mistakes. On March 12, 2009, I made the mother of all stupid mistakes. I tried to go through security at a major airport with a forgotten handgun in my briefcase. That is a federal offense! It was by far the dumbest thing I’ve ever done. Too often in my life I have not been careful enough. I knew better than to put a gun in my briefcase. Immediately after security found the gun, I began silently lecturing myself about my carelessness. I silently laugh while sitting on the lounger upon reading that part of the book. My friends are very busy playing and swimming on the pool I preferred sitting in here, reading this piece of a book—and maybe going to be geek once again after a long time. Going back, my mind is

“Hello?” I answered the call even though it is an Unknown number being flash on my phone screen. I notice how Levi, who is still sitting on the pool side, look at me. I move backwards to hear something from the speaker but like earlier, the caller is silent and I have no clue who this person is. “Hello, are you mute?” I annoyingly stated and was about to check the screen when the call ended right away. My brows formed a straight line. What are people up these days? I thought to myself. I walk back to the lounger and put my phone there. Levi is still looking at me but I just shrug my shoulders up to tell him that I don’t know who it was. While walking back to where I left Rael, I heard Cassidy running from the inside and she is now holding a bucket with bottles of drinks inside it. “Bring it on!” She shouted while running until she reached at the table. Everleigh is laughing from the other side of the pool and just when I am about to lo

“What? After you gave all those gifts to me because you said you like me, you want me to pay all of those gifts now just because I don’t want you anymore?!” Levi and I look to our left side when we heard Cassidy shouting at someone in the phone. I then look at Levi worriedly, thinking that she’ll go loud once again because of that certain person she is talking to. We are all in the department store right now, following Cassidy’s whims earlier, but hearing her talk with someone like that worries me so much. She can really literally go crazy even in public and I could not hold it that way. She is a freakish one since she is raised as the spoiled brat in the family. “Jerk, what do you think of me, your lending company? Are you that thick-faced?!” I watch how she continuously pull some coats from the shelf while talking in the phone. I found Everleigh’s gaze and she is also curious on what is going on here. “Stop her.” I told Levi but the

Even though Cassidy don’t want me to go, she is left with no choice when I asked our family driver to send me off back in the university. I just message don’t friends that I went back first and now, I am inside the car also waiting for Dad’s call. He told me that they will call today but I almost arrived in the university but I still haven’t received any. Since I know that they are busy as well, I ignore it and went out the car immediately. I said my thanks and bid the driver goodbye before entering the university with a Chanel paper bag. Good thing I used my university hand bag last Saturday so I still have some of my supplies with me—even the paper. As I walk through the hallway, I feel a little alone since oftentimes, I would be walking this hallway with the three guys but now, I am alone and it’s so new. “Dionne!” I look behind and saw Alaric with his sports bag. He looks newly bathe but he still looks good anyway. He is only wearing a pair of sports shor

I am taken aback when Mister Dawson said that. Right now, I am staring straight at him with my parted lips and I can’t seem to find the words to utter towards him. After a few seconds, I saw how he lean back on his chair without removing that little smirk on his face. I then realized what just happened and because of that, I grab the first thing I saw on his table and threw it at him. "Wait, what the–" We both look at each other after I did that. My nostrils are flaring but he is now down on the floor so I got confuse a little and check in his below. The moment he come up, he look at me and showed me his own from the other day and I can absolutely see how his ears and face went red while giving me sharp glances. "What?!" I annoyingly exclaimed. "You just ruined a 450$ worth of pen?!" I blink my eyes then found the pen he is referring to. The cap is now cracked and it falls easily now like it can't be lock anymore. He just stare into it

Ialmost forgot that I still have to meet Mister Dawson and his Dad today, making me jump out of the chair inside the library when it is two minutes before two in the afternoon already. Alaric looks so surprised and shock at the same time— even some of the students around the area look at our side.I bow a little to apologise before looking back down at Alaric. “I am so sorry but I forgot that I still have to meet with someone at two.”Realization also dawned inside him before checking for the time on his wrist watch. “It’s 1:59 already. You are going late.”“I feel so wrong. Thank you for today and I am sorry as well. Promise, I’ll be sparing a full of my time for this Thesis next time.”He chuckled. “It’s fine, Dionne. Go. I will be staying here to read this book.”With a nodding head, I bid my goodbye at Alaric and before checking my phone notification if perhaps, Miste

Because of what he said, I could not find the right poise and stance the moment it sank inside me that I am here to meet his Dad. I started to look around, clueless on what to do next since I haven’t think about this carefully and now, I want to regret everything— thinking that meeting his dad is like only meeting an old friend. “Goodness–“ My words are cut off when I felt how Mister Dawson wrap his left arm around my waist, making me stand cold and stiff the moment he did that. I am about to complain when the gate slowly opens, showing a good-looking man maybe in his late fifties. I am not sure if I look alright right now but I force a smile on my face as soon as our eyes met. “H-Hi!” I greeted. “Ah, damn it.” Mister Dawson whispered so I look at him. With so much guts slowly building inside me, I move my right arm to Mister Dawson’s waist before I look back on his Dad. “Mister Dawson, good afternoon.” I politely uttered. He stares at

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 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.

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
