Gwyneth’s POV

“Are you sure you wouldn’t need my help from those brats?” Zaina seems worried but her voice was obviously annoyed because of those brats she was referring to. “If only you allow me to come inside the principal’s office with, I’ll surely make them pay for what they’ve done.” She gritted her teeth but I just answered her with a quick shook of my head.

“I’ll be fine so you don’t have to worry about me,” I said then forced a smile before pushing her to leave. “I swear I’m going to defend myself from their wrath,” I kid but she’s still not convinced.

“If something will happen to you—”

“There again! You’re exaggerating things that are most unlikely to happen.” I said, cutting her off while busy pushing her away. “Don’t you trust me? I can easily handle this alone so don’t worry about me, so you better go now to the café in front of our school gate because Maureen probably waiting for you there.” I swayed, hoping she’ll gonna listen to me.

I’m anxious that she might involve in

    Gwyneth's POV After leaving the office, I trod my way out of the campus. This day was so stressful. How I hope tomorrow will bring me luck instead of misfortune. A lot of troubles happened to me this day, and I doubt I can handle if ever tomorrow will be worse compared today. Instead of minding the bad luck, I remembered I still have something to do. I need to see Zaina, or maybe I’ll go and see her meeting with Maureen. That girl smells fishy, and I need to find out what’s her plan before diving in the circle. I trod faster, making sure that I will be able to arrive in their meeting area before they leave. When I got out of the gate, I walk toward where crosswalk was and strides to the opposite way. “Hey!” someone spoke behind me, making me glance over my shoulder. “Where are you going?” he asked.I didn’t saw his car after I crossed from the crosswalk. He was leaning his back against his car while hands on his pocket. He’s wearing a solid V-neck sweater, paired with soft denim sh

    Gwyneth’s POV“Hurry up!” I yelled at Kalex and was constantly fidgeting at my seat. I was somewhat anxious of the possibilities in my mind. At the end of this sh*t, it’s either I go home broken because of the confirmation that Quir and Maureen are really into a relationship, or will go home with a smile on my face if ever I got again the wrong idea about them.“Stop demanding me!” Kalex shouted back while his gazes were focus on the road.More than five minutes later, I saw Quir’s car stop in the famous landmark of the city which is the park. When I supposed that we were few meters away, I yelled once again to make Kalex stop his car. “There… stop the car!” I screamed, and even hold his hand which currently holding the steering wheel of the car.I waited for him to stop the car and didn’t divert my gaze to where Maureen and Denver was. After they parked their car, they both went out of the car, so I hurriedly pulled Kalex’s sweater. “Stop! Stop! I said stop the car!”I almost got ru

    Gwyneth's POV“Yeah, I am now inside the campus. Why? Is there something wrong?” I answered back on the other line while I was walking through the hallway heading my way to my first subject this morning. [Did I bother you? I’m so sorry for calling you this early,] Jugyeong said and her tone was sorry.“It’s okay. Classes have not yet started. Why did you call by the way?” Maybe it has something to do with Aunt Carolina that’s why she gave me a rang early this morning. I hope it’s not about bad news. [Dad called me just now...]“Why? What’s the problem?”[He said he has something to tell me apart from the fact that I ran away from home just to see eomma,] I instantly slapped my forehead when I remembered the last time she told me that her father wasn’t aware that she came here to check her mom’s condition without notifying her Dad. The worst part is that, what if her Dad won’t allow her to come here back the moment she steps back in South Korea?[I called you to ask if could you ple

    Gwyneth’s POV “What do you mean by what you said earlier?” full of curiosity, I asked Kalex as I followed him to one of the tables here in the cafeteria.It’s a bit early and since he wasn’t able to take his breakfast this morning, I insisted to bring him here in the cafeteria, so that it will be easier for me to talk to him alone about what he said.“Which one?” he is as if has no idea of what I am talking about.“That ‘disgusting little secret’ you mean,” The way he said those words earlier seems like it has a deeper meaning. I knew him for weeks, and he will never throw such word that has no proper basis or even accused someone. I badly need to find that thing out, especially he pertains to Quir. “It’s about…” he paused for a while and sat to its seat and gaze to my direction.“Tell me what you know about him,” I begged, crossing both of my fingers in the process. Hoping that he’ll answer my query.“It’s about what we witnessed yesterday. Nothing else,” he mumbled and started eat

    Quir's POVI went to the locker room after I received a call coming from Maureen. She told me to get her extra uniform in her locker and meet her at women’s comfort room near the cafeteria. I don’t know what’s gotten on her to call me all of a sudden; especially we were both at school. After I got her extra uniform, I strode my way to where she was, holding a paper bag with her uniform in it.“Where is my uniform?” She asked me forthwith as I arrived to the women’s comfort room.I examined her first before handing her the paper bag I just brought. “What happened?” I inquired after seeing her in a total mess. “I couldn’t imagine you make ridiculous things inside the campus. What happened to your uniform?” I added.Her uniform has a brown stain and but I couldn’t see on her that she gone fought. Where did she got that mess? I knew her for years and I never saw her gone into a catfight. “Who says I made ridiculous things inside school premises? I am not that stupid, psh.” She countered,

    Gwyneth's POV“What the heck really had happened?” Denver asked me while we are currently having our lunch in the cafeteria. “Serves her right,” Zaina retorted then giggled as if what happened to Allaine was something to be celebrated, when Yuki poked her forehead, making her pouted her lips. “What? She should’ve be grateful ‘coz only her uniform got stained instead of her marred face,” she said, pouting her tubby lips and when Yuki was about to do the same thing, Denver throw him a warning look. “Stop hitting her in front of our table while lunchtime is ongoing,” he lectured Yuki and glared at Zaina as well, “Badmouthing someone while eating is not a good habit. Quit that right away,” He seemed like a father to both kids who do nothing but makes his head hurt. He’s somewhat matured compared to this guy beside me, psh. “Why does she always play tricks on you?” Yuki asked, returning to our main topic just a while ago.I shrugged my shoulder and didn’t bother to answer him back for I

    Gwyneth’s POV“Seriously? I couldn't believe her,” Zaina blabbered while we were heading our way out of the campus. “Don't you think she was just playing some tricks against you? She's a wench and you know that!” She added, gazing at me as she waits for my response.Yeah right. Allaine's behavior was somewhat weird and unbelievable. I mean, she said those three 'lil words in front of me all of a sudden, knowing she's not that kind of a person who'll behave those ways.“I don't know what to say. No comment,” I simply replied while shrugging my shoulder off. “Besides, I'm not in a right place to judge her right away,” I said as a matter of fact.Whatever her intention is, then I have no choice

Can’t he just let me pass this once? I am not yet prepared to make lies even I aced lying several times.“I just met him,” I said, sounded defensive because of the sudden utterance.“Liar!” he countered back.Ugh!

Local time is ten past three in the afternoon and the temperature is 25 degrees Celsius ..."I can't help but to feel all the excitement as the crew announced that our plane landed. I've been peeking out the window for a while now because I really want to set foot in the Philippines again. It has only been six months, but it feels like forever since the day I've been here. I was excited to see Jase and Kalex. We video called almost every night and they also went to see me at Christmas. They stayed there for the whole holidays but it's not enough to compensate my longing for the two.The hard battle of homesickness!"Have a nice stay ma’am!" one of the crew greeted me before I went down on the plane. I gave her a smile.When I got off the plane, I went straight to a bus that the staff p

    Gwyneth’s POVI woke up with the clamorous knocking on my door. I looked at my clock; it's already 11 in the evening. Who would bother to visit me at this time? I don’t even know why I was on my out to see me at this hour when in fact I still had to sleep because my flight will be early tomorrow at five in the morning. I was still yawning while rubbing my eyes as I walk to the door."Gwyn! Gwyneth! Are you there?!" My yawning stopped and my eyes widened when I heard Kalex's loud voice. I immediately ran towards the door thinking that something might have happened to Jase."Kalex?" he was sweating and gasping as he put his hands on his knees to support himself. He's wearing his usual sleeping clothes, his jersey short and a white cotton shirt. "What are you doing here? Why are you gasping?""I ... took ... the ... stairs." He said as his chest is heaving from the gasps. It took me a second

    Kalex’s POV"What's up?" Demitri asked as he sits in front of me. I asked him if he could come because I needed someone to talk to. I need someone who could knock some sense out of me. "Where's Jase?""Upstairs. Sleeping." I replied before I took a sip from the glass of whiskey in my hand. I know he's waiting for me to start talking but I fucking don't know where to fucking start."It's about Gwyneth, isn't it?" He asked when I didn't say anything. My chest tightened by the mere sound of her name. I miss her. I miss calling out her name and how she smiles at me in the morning."She's ... she's leaving tomorrow." I said in a low voice as I remember what she said five days ago. I don't even know how long she'll be gone. I was afraid to ask.My mind went crazy by just the thought of her leaving with that fucker and all I ever said to her was that she doesn't need to worry ...

    Kalex’s POV"Mommy you're going with us tomorrow, right?" Jase asked Gwyn again as he draws on his book. I peeked at my son's ipad to see Gwyn's face. She's as beautiful as ever."Yes baby, how many times have you asked me that already? You silly kid!" I can't help but to chuckle as I chop the vegetables for our dinner. Jase quickly glanced at me and grinned."I'm just reminding you mommy in case you forget." I shook my head. Jase just reminded Gwyn for the third time in fifteen minutes since they started talking.He was actually referring to her school activity. Since it's family day, parents are requested to attend the said event with their child at school. Jase has been talking about it since he learned that Gwyn and I are both going. I refuse to be absent on his first family day.They talked for an hour. I love hearing their voice and their funny conversations, especial

    Gwyneth’s POV"Why are you so quiet?" Quir asked me as we ride the elevator. I was on my way down earlier when I ran into him and he asked me to have lunch with him."Jase is with Kalex now and I don't have anything to do because I've already made all the proposals for my next event. I just need to submit." I sighed.This has always been my problem ever since Kalex and I had an agreement. When Jase isn't by my side I can't do anything so I usually just read a book until I fall asleep. Everything's just boring whenever Jase's not at home.Quir and I decided to eat outside the company. Sometimes the food is also boring because the menu is almost always the same."So I was thinking, how about we go out tonight?" He asked as we eat at one of our favorite place near the hotel. It's delicious here in case there's majesty so we only eat here when new wages.

    Gwyneth’s POV"Excellent job, Gwyn." I beamed at as he opened his arms and I ran towards him to hug him. He picked me up and turned me around."I did it!" I shouted at him and we were both laughing. "The senator loved the theme for the party ... he loved everything."They even popped a confetti for me. One of our officemates opened a bottle of wine to celebrate and gave me one. "Cheers to Gwyneth!"After months of preparing one of the biggest events of the year, I'm just so glad I finished the job. Who would have thought that I would host a politician's birthday party?I've been the event manager of big business men in the country but the aura is still different when your clients are influential in the Philippines. I met the president, the vice president, and even celebrities last night! That’s how big was the event that I organized and I'm happy to see the proud look

    Gwyneth’s POV"Sorry you had to wait." Kalex said as he took the seat in front of me. I stared at him intently while calling the server to give him coffee.Short stubbles are starting to grow on his chin. There are bags under his eyes and his hair is too long. To some, I'm sure he looked fine, but I know him too well to see that he's not. That's not the Kalex I know. These past few days must've been hard for him.I was making it hard for him."What do you want to talk about?" He asked after his coffee was served in front of him. His eyes made its way to mine, but then he immediately looked away. To this day he still can’t look at me."I'll go straight to the point." He nodded as he mixed his coffee. "I heard you ... at the bar. I heard what you said to Demitri." That made him look at me.His eyes are full of guilt that confirmed that everything I

    Gwyneth’s POV"Quir?" He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that I'm okay."You scared me back there." He said and shook his head."I'm sorry. She just came out of nowhere." Said a man approaching us. He seems to be the driver of the car. He helped us stand up. "I really didn't see you." The man approached me. "Are you hurt? Should I bring you two to the hospital?""No. We're fine." Quir replied with a smile and then they talked. He glanced at me before shaking hands with the driver who said goodbye."So, what are you doing here besides killing yourself?" He joked. I was embarrassed to close my eyes because of his question."I haven't seen it." Is this man like everyone who sees me like this? I looked up at him when he chuckled. Since Quir is much taller than me he put his hands on top of my head and beamed at me."Let's get some

    Gwyneth’s POVI walked into the building and went straight to Kalex's office. I can sense all those stares from the people here. I know others here know me because I was once Kalex’s high school friend. Maybe that’s also the reason why some of them were staring at me.I just ignored them because I have nothing to do with them anyway. I came here because of Kalex and they weren’t my goal. I also hate people looking at me, as if spotlight was pointing at me as of this moment. It looks like I’ll be their topic once I turned my back at them. These dumb as* has really nothing to do instead of focusing on their work. Tch.While walking to Kalex’s office I came across a kid chasing a ball. He was running and not looking to where he's going so I tried to avoid but he still collided with me, causing him to fall to the floor. Awts. His back must be hurt.“A
