“All your papers will be my requirements for midterm, so please submit all the lacking papers already, or else I won’t be able to grade you for midterms. Thank you. Class dismissed.”
I took a deep breath and massaged my temple again as I watched all the papers that Mr. Smith requires us for midterms. Gosh, I didn’t even notice that it’s gonna be midterm week the following week. That means that I’ll be busier than ever since after that week there will be the Acquaintance Party that the Student Council will be spearheading.
I sighed. I quickly gathered my things and when my block mates left, I stood up and went out. I was holding the strap of my shoulder bag and my head was bowed down when I heard someone calling me. I stopped on my tracks and looked back

Weird. It was freaking weird. The way he looked at me and said those words were super weird. I know it wasn’t for him, but for me, damn it. I hate this! I don’t know if this was because I have feelings for him, that’s why I’m putting meaning in everything that he does or there was really a meaning to it. I bit my lip hard as I buried my face on my pillow. I glanced at the digital clock on my bedside table. Damn it, it’s already past eleven and I badly need to sleep. For god’s sake I still have an exam tomorrow! This is so freaking frustrating! I shook my head hard and rolled around my bed. I did all of the possible ways that I could think to be tired so I could sleep, but to no avail, I just couldn’t. I drew in a deep sigh and just stared at the ceiling. This is seriously getting out of hand. I am so distracted and I feel like any moment now, I would ju

Chocolates. Different kinds of chocolates. That was the inside of the box. I was still staring at it. When I entered my room earlier, I didn’t know what to say and what to do. Now, who’s really this guy, huh? I mean is he from my school? And gosh, Sir Greg saw it earlier! His reaction! I gasped hard and covered my face with both of my hands. I groaned hard and immediately slumped my back on the bed. I heaved a sigh as I stared at my ceiling. The box of chocolates was still beside me. I glanced at the box again. I bit lip and slowly reached for it. I stared at it for some moment. I haven’t eaten anything even though thess chocolates were my favorites. I sighed and checked each of its kind. I was in that position when a knock came at my door. I almost jumped in shock. I closed my eyes hard before sitting down on my bed.

I couldn’t feel my hands. They were so cold, and I don’t even know why it's so hot in here! I bit the inside of my cheeks as I tried hard not to trip on while we were walking. I heaved a deep sigh. I could feel my heart pounding so loud. I heard him clear his throat. “You have a beautiful garden, Felice,” he said. I felt his gaze on me which made me even more conscious. I tried to look his way, but I couldn’t see his gaze. I feel like I’ll faint if I meet his eyes. Gosh. “Uh, it’s my mom who likes flowers and plants. So, yeah, she made her own garden here.” I shrugged. My eyes settled on the flowers. I took a deep breath. Both of my hands were clasped together on my back. An awkward silence enveloped us. The cold breeze was making her wrap her arms around me. I heard Sir Greg clearing his throat. I blinked my eyes before looking at him. “Are you cold?” he asked. I gulped hard and tried to smile. “Oh, uh, it’s fine. I’m fine.” I took a deep breath before giving him a smile agai

Our midterm week was hell, but it passed like a blur. All the distractions that I felt that night when Sir Greg visited the house were just washed aways when the week entered. The whole exam week was really exhausting. What’s worse was that there was a celebration after that. That’s the unified acquaintance that the student council was preparing for how many months already. And as the head of the council, all preparations were monitored by me and our adviser, who was unfortunately Sir Greg. Basically, the thought of having him out of my system because of the midterm week just passed cause once again, we were in the same room, so close that his presence made me flinch already. Damn. “We have barely two days for this. Together with the arts team, we will be spending our time decorating the stage, mandating rehearsals and other things. And let us not forget to thank our hardworking president along with other members who did all the work beforehand.” I immediately bit my lip when Sir

I was speechless as Sir Greg dragged me towards the President’s office. Oh gosh, how did I even get here anyway? “Come in.” I heard the President say. Sir Greg then turned to me. My eyes widened. I looked at him confusingly. “What?” I mouthed. “Go,” he mouthed back. My eyes widened in shock. What the hell?! It was his idea that we go here, and then he will push me to do this? Oh my gosh, unbelievable!“Sir-” I wasn’t able to finish my sentence when he slightly pushed me inside! Oh my gosh!“Miss Lemuel, Mr. Olivares!” President Martinez greeted. I felt like my whole body froze. I forced a smile at Dean. I heard Sir Greg clearing his throat. “Good afternoon, Mr. President.”“What brought you here? Does the council need anything?” Dean was smiling when he asked that. I felt Sir Greg turned to me but I widened my eyes at him. The brute just bit his lip to hide the ghost of a smile on his lips! Oh my gosh! I cannot believe him! “Uh it’s about the acquaintance, Mr. President. We wou

I didn’t know how I was able to survive that dinner with Sir Greg just an inch away from me. The next thing I knew, I already survived the dinner and we were back to the auditorium to resume the rehearsal and the decoration. Thank God, I was able to survive that, too. We finished at almost midnight, I think? Well, that was for the rehearsals. The Arts Club extended for some hour, I think. I wasn’t really sure because I already went to the Home Economics room right after we wrap up the run through. I was so tired already that I already wanted to sleep. Thank God, we had more sleeping beds and there were even beds for the housekeeping subjects. I’m not really sure. I settled on one single bed closest to the door. Right after I cleaned my face, I immediately slumped on the bed. I could hear the other members still chattering while I was just there staring at the ceiling. It’s just weird that I was so tired earlier, yet now my eyes couldn’t even close. Gosh. I gave out a deep sigh befor

“Oh, you’re happy.” I immediately stopped in my tracks when I heard that? “Mom?” I asked, shocked to see that my mother was actually at the front door. I just got home and I barely have how many hours already before I go back to school again. “What are you doing here? Don’t you have work?” I walked toward her and kissed her on the cheek. She just rolled her eyes and crossed her arms. “Well, I just want to check if you are indeed ready for tonight’s event.” She said with a smirk on her face. I rolled my eyes. “I’m fine, Mom. I got this,” I said, assuring her that I would be fine on my own, but then, yeah she’s my mother, so she never listened. “Oh come on, I already hired someone for your dress!” she excitedly said which made me gasp. “Mom!” I complained, but she already dragged me inside the house. The next thing I knew, I was already in front of her stylist and they were already talking about how I was going to be dressed that evening, and yes, I was robbed of my decision to cho

His soft lips nibbled mine. My sober mind was telling me to stop this nonsense, but then it was as if my lips has their own mind, and just kept on kissing the stranger. Damn it, Felice! Calm the hell down! I didn’t know for how long that kiss lasted. I tightened my grip on his nape and I felt him tighten his grip on my waist, too. I couldn’t count how many curses I had in my head already. Oh my gosh, this needs to stop! We were in the middle of the dance floor, and it’s a school ground for God’s sake!I took a deep breath and gathered all the strength that I had. I counted to three and quickly pushed him away. I even almost went down because of the impact and the people bumping me from left to right. Damn it. I held my head when I felt like my head was spinning already. I guess it was from the alcohol, the lights, and the movement of the people combined. “Hey, hey.” I felt two massive arms hugging me. I tried to look up to see who the guy was, but then he hugged me tight making me b
