My head was spinning to the echoes winding in my ears, my mind was though unable to process the words, the gossiping wisps divulging the rumors about myself.

"You just nailed it." Clancy punched my shoulder in appreciation. Shaking my absentee consciousness, and bringing me back to reality. Everyone walking past us had their eyes hooked on me, as their lips showed movement indicating that they were discussing me.

A wave of confusion wrapped me in, as I didn't know how to perceive the unexpected attention I was getting.

"Yeah, really," Travis spoke, bewildered. "I told you. You appear different. And now we all have seen the proof." he continued.

Athen's gaze averted toward him as he spoke. Amidst the chirps, wisps, and harsh laughs, some distant voices whirled over his head and got rapidly processed by his brain as if it were these echoes it had been busier in deciphering than the words his friends were uttering.

"Oh come on. Don't blabber about anything." I tried to dismiss the conve

    The food was finger-licking good. I left Mr. Jen's place after he served me a cup of hot brewing lemon green tea and both of us shared some casual talks while sipping on it. It was a refreshing stay genuinely, especially after having gone through so many confusing, muddling events, moments, like finding oversized clothes in my cupboard to turning down a gangsta guy in front of the whole campus, and those weird, odd whispers oath to never leave me alone."Thanks, Mr. Jen." I courteously said, bent forward as he wanted to pat me on my shoulder. I preferred to call him by his name than use any titles, such as Uncle, Grandpa, and any other that would best suit his personality. I felt comfortable regarding him by his name. It appeared bizarrely fine to me. To my relief, he was not offended by it, as his facial expressions showed, he seemed to enjoy being called by his name just like some of his friends referred to him. Realizing that at this point he needed the company of a friend more

    The next day, I was sitting on the couch waiting outside the psychiatrist's room, I booked an appointment. A few more people were accompanying me in the waiting area, their faces appeared normal, and their demeanor was fine. No one could guess if any of them were experiencing any mental abnormalities."Mr. Athen?" A girl called my name, responding, I shot up from my position and walked into the room, as all the eyes followed me until I disappeared behind the glass doors.A middle-aged man with grayish hair and thin-framed specs clumsily sitting on the bridge of his nose looked in my way as I walked in nervously. The aura inside the room was quite depressing and gloomy. I wonder how anyone walking in with tension and depression could find a cure here. An air of uneasiness, uncertainty, confusion, and unrealistic apprehension engulfed me as I dragged my feet against the wooden floor. The room was sparsely furnished with a dark wooden desk and a black leather chair behind it on which th

    "Jade, what are you doing!?" Stopping her hands laid on my belt, I spoke in a shocked tone as if I didn't know what she was going to do.Reaching home, I formally asked her to take a seat on the only couch I have in my tiny lounge while I rushed towards the kitchen to fetch something for her to drink with some snacks to eat.As I pulled my back straight, with an orange juice bottle in my hands, I saw her standing on the other side of the opened refrigerator door with a bawdy smirk gracing her mouth."I was coming for you." Retrieving from the surprise, I eyed her."It's ok. I was just getting bored, so I thought I shall give you company in the kitchen." Winking at me naughtily, she proceeded. As her mini skirt flared in the air when she moved forward, her heels clacked against the tiled floor. Amusingly, I averted towards the shelf to grab some glass to pour juice in them. Meanwhile, she stood behind me, I could feel her lewd gaze weighing me down. I felt a crude glamor pinning me do

    "Listen to me." I grabbed her by the arm and turned her around. The lewd glow shining in her gray orbs burned yellow with the fiery. How could someone be so dumb as to make his first-ever date angry? I felt the need to hit my head on the wall. After the blunder I had made in the kitchen, it would be worse if I let her go as it is. I needed to make up for my behavior."Sorry. It was my mistake." Her lips twisted, as she spoke in her irked tone.A pang of guilt crept over me, I bent to grab her hands in mine. Though, I had no idea how to make it up. I was a noob when it comes to dealing with girls, especially when their eyes were impregnated with expectations as you look into them."Ssshhh." I put a finger on her lips."Don't say it. I should be the one apologizing for my behavior." I tried to look into her eyes, though an odd thing hindered my vision and stopped me from diving deep into her. As if I was not meant to do so. The nature of the moment was ambiguous and appalling, as I sw

    "Mr. Jen," I spoke, shockingly.Finding the old man supporting his lean withered figure with a stick at my door, I pulled the door open. I invited him inside. "What is he doing here?" I thought. He shuffled in through the narrowed corridor, his orbs moving around as if measuring the unseen danger lurking around. The noise of his ragged breath was filling the silence. Walking past Jade completely unbothered by her presence standing in his way, he slipped into the living room.Tensely, I followed him. I didn't know what to expect from his appearance at this late hour of the night.The moonlight streamed in through the cracked glass of the window, illuminating the thin fine lines of wrinkles gracing his skin, and his intricately fragile fingers loosened their grip around the nape of his cane after he grumpily positioned himself on the sofa.I rushed towards the switchboard realizing it was dark inside and I forgot to turn on the lights. As I pressed the switch down, the white light of

    "Hey, have you seen it?""Today's breaking news!" That one member of a group who always showed up after picking the most controversial news around the college, energetically spoke."Oh, my God." The gasp rose from the mouths standing, forming a circle."What happened?" Those who didn't know could not hold back their curiosity but ask.With a dry wind rustling past the leaves creating a mysterious symphony, the whispers echoed in my ear. As both Jade and I walked down the stairs after the lecture ended. Those eyes watching us together, could not hold their tongues to talk about us."It seems like we are creating a headline today," I smirked, averting my gaze towards her strolling beside me with her arm looped in mine."Haha… they're getting curious or envious." She laughed slightly. "Shocked," I said rather."Oh… you think so." She appeared uncertain."Yeah." Both of us shared a laugh.I could see the shocked expressions lurking in the eyes of students upon seeing both of us together.

I clasped his hand curled up around her wrist and tried to free her from him. I didn't know who the man was, but by the way, he grabbed her arm anyone could guess that she somehow knew him. So did he."What relation do they have?" A thought occurred to me. "Who are you? And how dare you hold her arm." I pushed him back, and all the eyes averted toward us. Students who were busy enjoying their food, and gossiping with their friends stood up from their chairs and formed a circle around us as if we had arranged a circus.The man whose identity was yet to be revealed to me shoved my back and landed a furious punch on my face.

What a brave guy he was. And I could not help but stop myself from thinking about him. It was definitely my bad and despite my desperation, I could not get a chance to see his face.After buttoning up my pants, I grabbed my beige woolen top and pulled it over my head."I'll find you today," I whispered while staring in the mirror. As I turned my hair to my front and reek my fingers through them to loosen the curls, and dabbed the lipstick on my lips, I could envision him standing behind me though I could not see his face because he had his back on me."I'm sure my looks will weaken you." A smirk played on my lips confidently.Next, I fished out the concealer from my bag which I always keep along with me in c

The world around me slowly faded away, consumed by the overpowering darkness that was rapidly encroaching upon me. I struggled to make sense of my surroundings, but my mind was a jumbled mess of confusion and disorientation.
