Exchange Help with Mr. Wolf Chapter 52: Getting Weirder
My shift ended when George closed the restaurant and I cleaned the last dirt off my assigned table at exactly ten p.m on the dot.I put my coat on and change into my comfortable slippers, we said goodbye to one another and we head out, my coworkers and I parted ways, each having their night appointments to do, some were going to a bar, partying, drinking, or just visiting the night market, while some were going home. I’m one of the few that would go straight home. Because the restaurant was too far from where I lived, I need to catch the last bus for the night, I’m about to sprint off when suddenly, a hooded man in a maroon sweater showed up in front of me. “Harriet, I thought you forgot about me.” I scowled when Arnold’s face got brightened by the street lights and I recognized him. “Aren’t you going to sleep on your uncle’s place tonight?” I mean, this was a long ride to the town.“Of course not, I’m going to ride the bus with you.” He pulled me closer and put his hand over

“You two seem close.” I hugged myself and sniffed hard, I have a runny nose and I keep on sneezing, so I have to close the balcony and have a hard time locating tissue paper in the living room. Andrea was laying on the sofa with her pajamas and a banana. "Who, we?” I sank onto the one-sitter sofa and glumly stared at her, I know she knew who I’m talking about. “Tyler and I just met, I don’t think we can be that close.” Andrea peeled the banana and took a slow painful bite while looking at me as if implying what she said was the opposite. “Tyler’s so kind, he showed me his wolf form and it added more to his coolness.” I remember hiding a tissue roll below the coffee table, but I couldn’t get myself to have it because I was too stunned by what she said. What? It took me months before I saw his bestial form, then I found out that the moment they first met, he transformed. why did he show it so quickly on Andrea?Andrea jumped and sit on the sofa, obvious that she was enjoying more

The next thing I heard was the sound of the ambulance taking Arnold away because apparently, his scar opened and he’s stubborn because he just let it be until he can’t bear the pain anymore and blood soaked the plaster that was on it, based on the medic that took him to the nearest hospital.“What a douchebag,” Andrea commented, showing like a mushroom on my side, I almost jump to my place. “Who would leave his date like that?” I gave her a frown and turned to the exit of the carnival, the food he bought got wasted because he stumbled on the floor, and a huge regret blow down my chest because of that. And of course, on Arnold because he lied to me when he said he doesn’t remember his assault on the forest, when he told me he was just on the side of the road having a night jog but end up in the forest, he said he don’t know if his attacker was an animal or a human: He said he didn’t get attacked, he lied. I came home fuming mad and I threw my bag anywhere in my room before I lay on

I step back and the crackle and crunch of the dry grass was the only sound I heard aside from the buzz of moths around in the night. “Harriet, you’re hurting me.” I close my eyes and his words whispered in my ears, each pack stabbed into my chest. “I haven’t done anything,” I mumbled, taking the courage to stare back at him coldly, the corners of my eyes crinkled and I gripped the tray tightly. “That’s the point, you haven’t done anything but you’re already hurting me, what if you've done things already? Do you know how much pain that causes?” he retorted, his eyes fuming and I don’t know what to say back. I fought back my tears as my shoulders tensed and I have to purse my lips to stop myself from bawling, this was why I hate being attached to people, I don’t like them getting angry at me because I would break down easily, and I would get scared, and run.. or hide… or avoid them like they have infected by a plague or something. But should I be feeling like this? Should I let my

That same day, I was walking down the hallway of my school, feeling a little groggy and holding a can of soda in my hand when suddenly a hand snaked on my shoulder knocking me off and taking me down to the ground. “Harriet! Shit, I’m sorry.” I identify the voice to be Arnold, he stood in front of me while saying sorry, but I’m too hazy and lightheaded to stay focused. I will myself to stand up, a lot of students also passed by us, it’s amazing how I suddenly became invisible again once Tyler and Blake stop coming to school, they also didn’t know he existed but Hayley and Arnold stayed beside me and Ira and Danisha got out of my way. It feels like I got to go to a different school but same classmates still. “It’s okay,” I replied after a little while. “Why do you suddenly feel like that? The morning classes haven’t started yet.” That’s what I’m asking myself also after I had a conversation with Lukas, I prepared myself and get to school but then I suddenly feel lightheaded and agi

At work, I saw Arnold in a different light. He doesn’t know Ira talked to me and told me his secret, now I know why he came running to the woods that night, it wasn’t to find me, it was to run away from the responsibility. If only glare could burn, he would be turning to ash right now. “Why are you looking at him like he took something precious to you?” I almost jump and let the stick of the mop I’m holding hit the floor when Uncle George suddenly showed up behind me. “Why are you here, Uncle George?” Uncle George was just the same height as me, he has black hair and round eyes that weren’t big but also not small, his charming smile makes the ladies in this town go back to his restaurant. I also thought he put lip gloss from time to time and that’s cool, he made it so the ladies won’t be dismayed when they saw him get out of the kitchen and go to their tables to ask them for some feedback. “Why? Am I not allowed to walk around and just stayed in the kitchen? But this is my restau

Now that I saw it from another perspective, why shouldn’t I be the one? Why didn’t I stand up the first time everyone said it? Why didn’t I get the limelight? Was it because I’m slow? That’s why they chose another one? Or they didn’t see me fit the role, that’s why someone step in? Is it because I’m a loser and all I’m meant to do was to cry on the sidelines because the battle has been fought and it already ended, so why am I standing still on the empty battlefield? Now I see it. Blake helped me stand up and we went to the farmhouse. “You hurt your shoulder.” He removed my cardigan and showed me my shoulder. “I’m going to get the first aid.” It was blurry what happened next, Andrea barged in with Tyler and they asked me questions; particularly, questions about who killed the chickens. A little sob escaped from my lips, followed by another and then Blake came back and clean my scar then after it was uncontrollable, I bawled in front of them and cry inconsolably. Partly because I h

After we ate dinner, I was left alone in the living room, Andrea had her shift on the carnival, while I snuggled up in the L-shape grey sofa. I have a crocheted maroon blanket that Tiffany gave me and my focus was on the television, watching advertisements as they passed by. “Harriet, aren’t you sleepy?” Tyler was starting to irk me again when he sat on the single sofa holding a glass of red wine and crossing his legs. I made my head rest on my arms as I was laying on my side, I didn’t answer him because he already knew the answer to his question. I heard the faucet close and the trash can open so Tiffany must be already done with the dishes. “Are you going to forever ignore me?” Blake showed up and I automatically sat up and motioned him to sit beside me. I snuggled at him the moment he sat, he has the body of a woman, of course, her muscles were there, especially on the biceps but her chest was so fluffy and his abs don’t hurt too, they were visible but he was so white that it d

Exchange Help with Mr. Wolf Epilogue (Part 2)
Ahhh…I should just choose to stay in the town where I was raised, in the house of my father, and watched Priti grow, I want to say to everyone that I’m honored to have her as a sister. I should just forget about the wolves and didn’t force to see the ending, who was my real parents, and why Artha steal me from my birth mother. I shouldn’t stay curious, I should just stay silent and uphold my peace. Then, I wouldn’t have to witness a fire, and blood spilled in the air, if only I didn’t get angry and pursued revenge on my father, I wouldn’t have had to meet the legendary wolf. Maybe that’s his reason all along. He wanted me to stay by his side until he found my birth mother. He had to lie about his love story and keep secrets from me, and on the paper, I saw his name signed aside from the blank that I needed to sign. It just meant that he now let me become his neighbor. That was ironic. The house burned down, and I almost lived in his mansion for how long, it’s a pity that it was b

Just like any other movie or story – it must end. The bad guy finally sprouted like a mushroom, I conversed with him, he plotted murder, and he was so ugly. Because of my coercion, he took me on his journey, with the help of others of course, Lea was pushing my wheelchair while Azi and Neneuis were on my side, and Blake and Tyler lead the way. “It’s not like I’m doing this for you. That idiot brother of Tyler killed someone close to me too.” Neneuis made clear while they were walking to enter the forest, I’m wheelchair-bound for the rest of my life, so Lea just wheeled me. “You’re pertaining to Lukas, right?” I replied, confident that she was talking about him because there’s only him, right?Neneuis smirked. “Not entirely, I’m doing this for myself also,” she said, then walked past us. Her outfit was back to the emo girl that I first met, she was wearing a black square-neck sleeveless blouse tucked in a brown wrap-around skirt and a black belt hugging her legs, because of her sh

They knew… I returned to the room acting so scared and so cold, I fear for my future all of a sudden. They need to have a valuable reason why they didn’t tell me about my mother or else… Or else I’ll be seriously mad. I came back to bed with so many thoughts in my head and a heavy heart. It’s not that I don’t know they’ve been hiding secrets, I know, it’s not like a person can live without hiding secrets from anyone, I believed we have three faces, and that also comes with secrets, we have private secrets, secrets we only knew, like for example in our body, I have three moles in my back, and I can be naughty at home, and be friendly and shy at school. There were secrets we could not tell everyone, that’s just part of life and I respect that. But I didn’t know the secrets they hold were deeper than a well on a hot spring. I didn’t know it held the truth in me. They know who my birth parents were. I’m anticipating to know, yet I also don’t want to know. My other problem, on Phi

I was blind. I knew there was something behind his force smile, and his gestures, and all. But who am I not to pull on security when I don’t know what to believe. Am I going to trust him or his brother? Who’s telling the truth? Of course, the rational sense to believe on someone was with Tyler, I should’ve believed in him and maybe the night won’t end so bland, I enjoyed the longest time with him, and I’m happy and at peace compared to his brother who I just met, he said he lurks in the shadows and have a creepy conversation with me at one moment, it sure gives me a warning sign and I almost believed in him. But who am I to believe Tyler was the one killing my friends? He clearly denied it and I wanted to believe him so bad but I couldn’t agree with him at that night, there’s a voice saying I should not, obviously part of that was the last words of Lukas. “Harriet, whatever his brother said to you, believe him.” What kind of sentence was that? Why does it have a double meaning
Exchange Help with Mr. Wolf Chapter 89: Trusting You
I tried to asked him what he meant but he closes his eyes and I froze, that’s it? I leaned down to his chest but I didn’t feel a heartbeat, I wiped the tears from the back of my hand, I’m not disappointed, I just realized that this was more painful than learning your mother had died. In this, I witnessed him catch his last breath, he told me his last word, I was with him just a moment ago, why did it have to happen like this? Then I remember, the headlights that focused on us, my tears-stricken face turned around, the smoke and mist lights up from the headlights, dusts and particles made me realize that it was cold and it was night, no one’s supposed to be roaming around, but me, and the one who killed Lukas. I narrowed my eyes and focused onto the man who was on the car, like me, he was also frozen on his seat, I stood up and step forward, trying to recognize who was he. The road ends up at the beginning of the alleyway, it was a dead end here, if he did not purposedly drive on
Exchange Help with Mr. Wolf Chapter 88: No One's Getting Killed
My unexpected visit to my stepfather ended. The sky was getting dark when we reached outside. Now for the problem… “We don’t have a place to stay.” I sighed, feeling the warmth the air has blown opposite us. “We can go our separate ways and find a place,” Lukas suggested. I stared at him long enough to think that I’m positive he wouldn’t get killed, because Tyler’s brother was wrong, Lukas lost his memories, and Tyler wouldn’t kill someone with the same breed as his. No one’s getting killed, why am I so convinced and calm at the fact that Tyler was killing my friends? No one’s getting killed, I repeated. Tyler’s brother was wrong. I closed my eyes and inhaled deeply. “Okay,” I agreed to what Lukas suggested, so he flew away while I watched his back disappear, I was about to walk on to the opposite direction too, but someone called my name again. My father has three footsteps now, but that made him more of a slow-walker—sign of aging. “Harriet, I forgot to give you this,” my stepfa
Exchange Help with Mr. Wolf Chapter 87: My Stepfather
The man has a wooden crane with a gold head of an eagle that speaks of how he became rich after he banished all his children. Was this really what it’s like to be a grown-up? You’re just suddenly tired from all the drama because it seems that it only repeats; it’s a life cycle, after the happiness, comes sadness, then happiness again then sadness, over and over, until you’re worn out until you question everything if it’s worth it until you couldn’t care less if someone leaves or dies. Life’s becoming dreadful for me, but to the man in front of me, it was the opposite, I can say that he doesn’t miss his children one bit. I’m not jealous of Priti and Genevieve. As much as I don’t like it, he married her and has a baby. Priti deserves the thing that we, his children, didn’t taste. At least give Priti a father that won’t leave when the mother dies, give her all that you can, and never lie to her. “Hey, you looked pale.” Lukas nudged me,

My plan was after Lukas and I left the place of the wolves and came back to the town where I really belong was to hunt down for a place to stay. But I’m with someone who has lost his memory, and the gazes of people as they passed by us irks me. It was still fresh on them, that I lost my mom and rebel and came to the woods and I met the legendary wolf. I was fiddling with the online cash I had with my phone when Lukas tugged the hem of my sleeves. “Let’s eat something.” I stared at Lukas. It was on cue that his stomach grumbled, so I gave in. I fished my wallet and was about to head to a café, but then I remembered, they’re the type of wolves that eat fresh meat. “What? Why? Aren’t we eating?” “Yes,” I faced the direction of the supermarket instead, “let’s go buy some fresh meat,” I declared and started walking, but the guy with me didn’t even take a step. “I’m okay with just waffles, what you eat.” But the guilt in me resided, I turned to face him again and remembered that h

“Harriet, we’re sorry we’ve done something bad to you.” It was late in the afternoon, and we have just returned from the psychiatric hospital, I was about to swerve and go to Joshua’s place when I reached the house of Neneuis and others, his house was just behind them but Azi and Lea showed up in the front porch and approached me. I was with Joshua all day, so I turned to him with utmost confusion. He just shrugged and motioned Blake and Tyler to emerge from the door. “Harriet, are you okay?” Blake sounded so worried, he was in his guy form, I guess his feeling guilty because earlier, at dawn, when I met him with his second form – Tiffany, she was so elegant like she just went to a party with the elites, turned out it was true, I learned that because her tongue slipped when she saw me with Joshua at breakfast, she was with Tyler, and they attend a charity ball along with other businessmen, and she tagged along as his date. I’m not mad or jealous, in fact, I’m relieved that the gir
