"Hello, Michelle, why do you call?" I asked as I put on my shoes.(Hello Vienna, I just wanted to ask if you're going to watch brother Vince's game? I think it'll start soon)I almost forgot, now it's my brother's game. I'm going to watch but I still have to go somewhere."Yes I will watch, but I will go to the hospital first. Please just tell my brother and Tine that I will follow."(Alright, Vienna, we'll just wait for you here)"All right Michelle, just text me where you are."(Okay Vienna, be careful)I gasped for breath immediately, it's a good thing she didn't know what happened yesterday. It didn't reach the two of them that Sebastian kiss a girl. Because when they found out, I would surely die and they would ask me many questions that I would vaguely answer.Last night, I couldn’t sleep at the thought of what had happened between me and Sebastian. I don't know why he kissed me but I think he has a reason why he did that to me. And until now, I can still feel his lips on my lip
In the end, my brother and his team won and the score was 1-0. The other team couldn't catch up because it was 3 minutes left before the end of the game. Almost all of them are good players, even Kenneth but he can't level the skill of my brother in the game. I also decided to go home after the game. And Tine is with me now, he offered to take me to the parking lot. Michelle and Therese went somewhere else so I'm not with them now.Tine and I are currently walking here in the hallway going to the parking lot. The students we met greeted him for winning earlier but he just smiled at them. I felt his arm on my shoulder which caused everyone to look and talk about us. Others look bad on me and I don't know why. I looked at Tine but he was just looking seriously at what he was going through and didn't seem to care about the people around him. I was nervous, maybe what happened yesterday between Sebastian and I might reach to him.We had already arrived at the parking lot but I didn’t expe
VIENNA'S POV"Vienna, are you already awake? Let me in, I just want to talk to you for a minute." It was mom's voice but I didn't stand up to open the door for her. I was not in the mood to talk to her. I think a lot and I don't want that, to add."Vienna .. are you okay? Please let me in. I'm worried about you, last night you were silent and you didn't eat dinner. What's your problem? Tell me, I'll listen." I ignored what she said, I remained silent and just stared at the box on my study table.'I don't need her help, I can find answers by myself.'"I'm fine, just leave me alone," I answered, not in a mood. She didn't speak anymore but I could still feel her presence outside the room."I'm just here sweetie, mom is always there for you. If you have problems or if something is bothering you, please tell me right away, okay?"I look down, I should have been happy with what she said but I was just hurt. I've been waiting for almost 8 years, just to hear those words from her.Only now sh
"Are you going to tell Vince about the title of the house?" Tine asked when we got to the second floor. Mang Eduardo was no longer with us, he just showed me where my room was."He needs to know, I don't want to keep it a secret from him either," I answered."Don't you really want to live here with your brother?""I'm not sure if my brother still wants to live in this house. After our parents got divorced, he went to live with uncle Francis. But I will try to ask him, if he wants to live here then we will move after the wedding of my mom and uncle Lucas.""I'll convince him, don't worry. But I'm sure, your brother already misses this house of yours."I sighed afterward, I'm not sure about what he said. Mang Eduardo told me earlier, he said that my brother used to go here. He said he took something and then left immediately and after that, my brother never came here again. I feel that he is avoiding something in this house that's why he has never been able to come back here. Whatever i
"Vienna hija, are you alright?" the lady asked worriedly. I just nodded in response and kept staring at the teddy bear I was holding.We are still here at home, Tine and I were going to leave earlier but aunt Maricel served us food that's why we couldn't leave."Vienna, is there a problem? You've been quiet since you came down. What are you thinking? Tell me and I'll help you," Tine said but I didn't look at him. I took a deep breath and then put the teddy bear down on the table."You've been staring at that teddy bear for a while now. Is that from the box that Mang Eduardo gave you?" he added."No, it's from dad's office," I replied.I thought when I saw this teddy bear, I would remember something about Martin but nothing. I've been staring at it for a while but it's nothing, I just get a headache when I force myself to remember the past."Do you remember who gave you that?" Aunt Maricel asked."Yes... it's Martin.. but I don't remember what he looks like," I answered, making her sur
It's already 7 in the morning but I'm still here in my room, silently looking at the two boxes. And hoping that I would remember something, but there was nothing.Last night, I stared at Martin's face several times but I couldn't really remember him. And the only thing on my mind at that time was Sebastian's serious face. I don't know why maybe this is the effect once you like someone. You think about him even if you don't want to think about him.'But why all of the sudden did Sebastian have this effect on me? Do I already love him?'"Vienna.. breakfast is ready, come downstairs and you might be late for your class. Vienna do you hear me? Are you already awake?"I didn't answer my brother, I just stood up and took my bag. I woke up early to take a shower and get dressed, but I didn't leave the room immediately after doing that.I opened the door and he was obviously surprised to see me but I just ignored it. I silently passed him and walked down the stairs. He just followed behind me
"Are you okay? Did they hurt you?" he asked worriedly. I didn't expect that he would still be this kind and concerned with me despite what he found out. And I thought he wouldn't talk to me yet because of what I told him yesterday."I'm fine and they didn't hurt me," I answered.We are currently here in the garden, this is where he brought me when he found out that my Professor was not around. Some students saw me which caused them to talk about us, especially me. I don't want to pay attention and just ignore what they say but it's not right anymore. It enters my brain and hurts me even though it's not true."I will find a way to delete your photo from the internet and to stop the students from destroying you.""Why does it seem easy for you to say that?" I said making him confused. I know he was hurt by what he saw but here he is, acting unhurt. I don't want him to hide his true feelings from me like this."What do you mean?" he wondered."You were hurt, I hurt you but that's what yo
SEBASTIAN'S POV"Why did you admit that to me only now? Why only now?! Why only now when it's already been a mess?!""What did I do to make you hide that from me? You made me look like a fool, Sebastian."Those lines that came out of her mouth caused me to destroy my hope that I could bring back our old relationship. Because of what happened today, I know that it will not happen anymore.I know that we will end up like this, that when she finds out about me I will hurt her and we will hurt each other. I'm afraid, I'm afraid that maybe this incident will be the reason why she's totally not with me forever. I don't want that to happen, I can't allow it anymore."I have to follow her, maybe something bad will happen to her," said Tine but Vince stopped him by his arm while looking at me badly."Don't follow him, let my sister go," he answered."Let her? What if something bad happens to my friend?!" Britt shouted angrily."When something bad happens to my sister, blame your friend!""And
It has been my dream for a long time to sing on a stage and many people are watching. When I was young I learned to play any instrument and sing any kind of music. I fell in love with it because of my dad, he was the one who influenced me to sing and play. Because of him I composed and covered songs, and participated in auditions until I became a famous singer.My dream is to become a famous musician like the artists I admire in the music field. I also want to feel loved and admired by many people. But from the time my dad got sick until he lost his life, all my dreams disappeared from my mind. I want to fulfill that with him but now that my dad is gone, I don't want to pursue my dreams anymore. And because of what happened, I came to a decision not to tell the public about my true identity. I did that because of dad, because of him I did those things.But now, I dared to introduce myself and tell everyone who I really am. I'm not afraid anymore and I won't be affected by whatever the
------AFTER 3 DAYS-----(MUSIC CONTEST)"Vienna...""Yes brother RJ?" I asked. We're here now backstage, he's the only one with me here. After Michelle and Therese fixed me up, they suddenly left and I don't know where they were going."Are you okay? You've been quiet there for a while.""I'm fine brother, I'm just a little nervous.""Don't be nervous, we are here to support you. You can do it," he said with a smile. "I'm going out for a while, I just have to call someone.""Alright brother." When he left, I suddenly let out a deep breath. I'm nervous but I'm sure I can do it.This is the day I've been waiting for the most, the day where I will confess and tell in front of many people who I really am. I don't know what the outcome will be but this is the right time for me to introduce myself to the public. I'm afraid of what might happen but there's no turning back. I can do it for myself and for the people I love."Vienna.." I immediately turned around when I heard Michelle's voice.
SEBASTIAN'S POVNone of us tried to speak, I just looked down while she was looking at me since earlier. I don't know what to say, I still can't believe I saw her."I'm sorry, son.." My tears started to fall because of the last thing she mentioned. I waited a long time to hear that word from her again."I know I hurt you and I hurt your dad, but I hope you can forgive me for what I did," she said crying. I immediately wiped my cheek before looking up at her."I've forgiven you but I still can't forget what you did. You hurt not only dad but also me, your son. I hope you understand if I'm still mad at you," I replied, making her silent. "But now that I'm in front of you, it seems like my anger towards you has gradually disappeared," I added. A bitter smile appeared on her lips and she immediately grabbed my hand that tighten my chest.I really wanted to hug her but I couldn't. I missed her, I missed my mother."I understand why you're still mad at me until now. But thank you, thank you
"Mom... I'm sorry," I cried while hugging my mom. She gently pull me to face her and she immediately wiped my tears. I missed her, I missed my mom."You don't have to say sorry, it's not your fault, my daughter. I'm the one who should apologize to you. I'm sorry sweetie, I hope you can forgive me for what I did.""I forgave you a long time ago and I'm not mad at you anymore." Tears started to flow from her eyes because of what I had said. I know this is what she wants to hear from me, to forgive her for what she has done. Yes, I still can't forget what she did to my dad, what she did to me, but she deserves to be forgiven. I was not the only one who was hurt by what happened, but she was also hurt. She's my mom, she's all I have and I don't want to lose her from my life.***"Vienna, take care here, and don't forget to take care of yourself. We will miss you, my child," said sister Fely as she hugged me tightly."I'll miss you too, take care of yourselves. I love you all so much," I s
"Bro, is there anything else I need to do? Is there anything missing?" Britt asked as he took himself a video."Yes, please take the balloons from my room and bring them here," replied Sebastian who was busy arranging the food on the table. Enzo, on the other hand, is also busy putting up decorations and other things."Copy that sir," Britt said and saluted like a soldier. He also left and went to Sebastian's room. When he got to the room, he also immediately looked for where the plastic of balloons was kept."Sebastian has to be thankful, I love him but my friend loves him more. It's different when you're in love, you'll do everything just to make the person you love happy," Britt said while facing the camera. When he arrived at his friend's studio, he immediately gave Sebastian the balloons he took."Take me with you in the video, bro, it seems like only your face will be seen there," said Enzo. Sebastian laughed because of what he said. Britt couldn't stop throwing stones at Enzo.
VIENNA'S POV------FLASHBACK------"How did you know I was here?" I asked when he entered the house. But he was surprised when he saw me, he didn't know I was there but he immediately hugged me tightly which I didn't expect."How are you? Are you okay? Did anything bad happen to you?" he asked after hugging me. But I didn't answer him and just looked at his whole face. It was obvious in his eyes that he was tired and lacked sleep. It's like my heart is squeezed because of my brother's appearance now. I couldn't help but blame myself, he became like that because of me."I'm fine, don't worry about me. How are you? Have you finished your exams?" I emotionless replied. But suddenly a smile appeared on his lips because of what I said.I don't hate them anymore, I just really don't want to see them after what happened. But I have gradually forgiven them, it's just not that easy for me to forget and accept what they did. They not only broke my trust but also the trust that Sebastian had giv
SEBASTIAN'S POVIt had been four days since Vienna know the whole truth. Until now I still remember what happened that day and until now I still haven't seen her. Even though she stopped me from looking for her, I didn't stop. When she answered my call, I had hoped that I could fix the situation. But suddenly it disappeared when she said that she didn't want to see me yet."I don't want to see you yet.. so please leave me alone for now. I'm sorry."I still haven't stopped finding her despite what she said. But I suddenly remembered what I did 3 years ago. I looked for her everywhere, even though I was hurt during those times because of her loss and my mom left me, I still didn't stop. But days, weeks, months, and years passed, then I realized that she had left me and she would never come back. But after 3 years, she came back but she doesn't remember me. Now that she knows who I am, will I give up and stop looking for her?I admit I've given up a few times, I've been discouraged a few
"Ma'am Vienna, are you all right?" I slowly looked up and wiped my tears."Why are you crying?" She asked worriedly."I'm fine sister, don't worry about me. I just remembered something that's why I cried but I'm really fine," I replied and forced her to smile."I hope you're all right, ma'am. Just call me if you need anything." I just nodded in response and sister Riza immediately left. But my tears fell again when I remembered what I had read earlier. That happened 4 days ago, he admitted that he was Martin but because I was hospitalized, I didn't know it right away. If I had only known this right away, we wouldn't have gotten into this situation where we were both hurting each other. But it's too late, I don't know if I can get back what we had before or not.She's already here, I need to prepare myself for whatever she's going to say."Vienna sweetie, it's good that you're fine. Where did you go? Uncle Lucas and I looked for you-""You act as if you haven't done anything wrong, any
"VIENNA, DON'T JUMP!"I stopped thinking when I heard that voice but I didn't look back. How did he know I was here?"Don't do that, please Vienna I'm begging you to get down there." It's Britt, my friend for a long time but just hurt me."How did you know I was here?" I asked."I will answer your question but first get down there," he answered. I didn't get stubborn anymore, I just went down and looked at him without emotion. Now that I'm facing him and I know who he is in my life, my whole body feels weak. I can't even remember that he was a part of my past."Can you answer my question?""I'm your friend so I know where you go whenever you're hurt and thinking about a problem. I thought you'd forgotten about this place, but you haven't." That's why I felt better when I first came here because of the memories I have of this place. It was a witness to the problems I experienced."Why you lied to me? What bad did I do for you to hide the truth from me?" I asked and tears started to flo
