Adam...SANYA and her wickedness. Is there still a chance for her to change? Even if she's not excessively kind, she could at least have a heart, even if it's just a little.This morning, I was looking for her. I was already at school early, and she and Kyra arrived together, but it's as if I were just air that she walked past.When they got on the bus, I was just waiting for her to at least look for me. I waited for her to glance in my direction, but when she saw me, she just covered her window with the curtain.I handed a mocha latte to her, and when Lee said he accepted it, I got off the bus again and saw that she just threw it to the guy she embarrassed.Honestly, I don't know why I liked her. In the two days I didn't see her, I kept looking for her. When I saw her again, I couldn't explain the happiness. I just feel it, but even though I feel that, I still know that what she's doing is not right.Did she get so annoyed that she vented her anger on the guy in front of her and then
Adam... "HEY, can you move over, you're so ugly!" shouted a very beautiful girl as she pushed my arm aside. She's the star, the queen, it's her, and no one else. Me, I'm just ordinary in the eyes of most people, an ordinary student, an ordinary citizen, an ordinary person, everything just ordinary. When will I become the star? When will it be my turn to be admired and looked up to? When will I be the popular one and loved by people, even just here at school? It's tiring to always be ordinary. I know everything is possible, but it seems unlikely to happen. Have you ever felt like this at some point? Like you're just a nobody, no one cares about you, I don't have any friends at this school because I am always trying to stay out of trouble, but sometimes, you just want a person you can talk to, I feel invisible most of the time, no one tried to approach me or be friends with me, every time I try to talk to people, they'd be weirded out by me or they already have their own set of frie
Adam... HERE we are again. It's so annoying and tiresome. This person doesn't even have an ounce of pity for me. Wasn't I almost at my breaking point the other day? I was the one who got hurt. I knew what I did was wrong, but that wouldn't have happened if only she wasn't treating me this way. And now, she threw a spoon at me. Of course, it hurt; I got hit on the cheek, and now there's a bruise. "You're really going too far, you woman. Be thankful I'm not giving you a taste of your own medicine!" "I'm not asking for retaliation, just some respect and decency," she retorted. "None of this would have happened if you didn't treat me this way." "Why? Isn't it part of the agreement that I can do whatever I want to you, since you're my slave?" "I'm not your slave; I'm your husband." "It's practically the same thing." "So, being a husband is the same as being a servant? Then you should have married one." "Who was the one who first asked for help?" I clenched my fist. Damn it, I was
Adam...IT has been almost a week since that day when we had a fight, and it hasn't happened again because I've been avoiding it.Sometimes I lock myself in my room or eat outside, and when I'm at school, if I see them coming, I avoid them - Sanya and her friends. I don't want to embarrass myself again.I'm here now in our English class, and the professor is speaking, but I'm not listening. I was surprised when someone sat beside me and introduced herself."Selena Tora, so how are we going to do this?" she asked, and I was dumbfounded. She looked like a nerd, but I was speechless because I didn't understand what she was saying, she rolled her eyes at me."You weren't listening. You're my partner, the professor said we need to create a presentation as if we're on a talk show. We'll exchange questions without a script while we're there. It's easy, right?" she asked, raising her eyebrows. I smiled and nodded."Okay then, good. Where can we practice? I mean, so we can discuss what we need
Sanya...I went down the stairs and saw that my husband's classmate was already leaving. It's really annoying because this idiot is the reason why someone in school already knows that he is my husband. Did I forget to mention that he's an idiot?It's true though. Seriously, this guy is beyond foolish. There are plenty of places he could have taken that girl, there's even a library for studying, but he chose to bring her here."Hey! Check the bathroom, you might have left your brain there!" I shouted at him, he looked at me sharply. "What? You're looking at me like I'm the problem?"He took a deep breath and headed straight to the kitchen, grabbing a piece of bread there.He didn't even bother to answer or acknowledge me, so my eyes narrowed and I immediately followed him, giving him a flick on the ear. "Ouch! What's your problem?""Do you want to get beaten again?""What's your problem?""Didn't I ask you why you brought th-that-""She's my groupmate in English class, Lena.""Yes, who
Adam...I was left speechless as I saw Sanya and the others walking into the campus.It's not surprising that they're here, what's puzzling is that they're accompanied by my classmate Lena, who seems to be one with them.I don't know if my thoughts were wandering in confusion, so I was startled when Sanya snapped her fingers in front of me."Daydreaming?" she asked while in front of me. "Why are you blocking our way?"She's mocking me again, so I looked at Lena. "Lena, why are you with them?""And why not?" I looked at Sanya, who raised an eyebrow at me. "Shouldn't you be the one to tell her who she should be with?"She linked arms with Lena. "She is one of us now, what are you being so clueless about? Move aside!"She pushed me aside, and her two friends followed suit, and I saw Lena glance at me before lowering her head. After Lena and I finished presenting our plan, we sat on a single chair with a gap between us. Others were still presenting, but I didn't pay much attention to tha
Adam... "YOU really made Lena join your group," as soon as Sanya entered, that was my immediate greeting to her. Why not? Even my new friend got involved because of her, and they're even teaching Lena to be like them. She smirked and crossed her arms. "What's your concern? In the first place, the person you were with earlier was the one who answered us, you guys should know your place." My eyes narrowed. "You're going too far," I approached her and held her arm. "What the fuck! Don't you dare touch me!" She removed my hand, and her reaction surprised me. "You're going too far, Sanya, you don't know when to stop. You and your friends are hurting people.Yes, I don't care if Lena's now part of your group and how that happened, but Sanya, you're a bad influence on her!" "And who are you to say that?" she raised an eyebrow. "You don't know us." "True, but that doesn't mean what you're doing is right. Why are you so furious with me? What do I always get picked on by you?" "Because I'
Sanya...I don't want to keep being stuck here with this annoying guy. He even threatened me earlier, thinking he could intimidate me. I am Chrissanya Evangelista, and I've never been afraid of a man, especially not someone like Adam Zhymian.Maybe others think I'm a really terrible person, wondering why I'm so angry with him. Truth be told, it's not just him I'm angry at, it's all men. I might even be considered a man-hater, right?I just want to distance myself, especially from the man in front of me. It's because of our situation - I'm married to him, and he, out of all men, is the one closest to me. Not as a friend or anything, don't get me wrong. I don't feel anything for this person; I just really don't want to be around men like him. What I mean is, my whole life, I've kept my distance from men.I dislike them; I hate their arrogance, their pretentiousness, their womanizing tendencies. I dislike everything about them. I don't have any brothers, and it's only now that I've exper

Sanya...KYRA and I almost missed our breakfast due to our haste. We woke up at 3:30 am, and it was a good thing that Alexa's condo was close to the school."What's wrong with you two? Don't you know what an alarm is?" Alexa scolded us. She woke up to use the bathroom and noticed it was almost 4 am, so she hurriedly woke us up. "If I didn't wake up, you might have missed the bus."Kyra and I just shook our heads. Before leaving and saying our goodbyes to Alexa, we double-checked everything. Once we were sure we hadn't forgotten anything, we left. Kyra used her car and parked it in the school parking lot.She called someone last night to pick up her car and left the keys with Alexa. She would give them to the person since it would be a three-day outing.I saw six buses arrive, three for the guys and three for the girls. Another set was for our teachers and facilitators. Inside the bus, we each had our own seat on both sides. It was fine not having a seatmate since many of us had a lot
Adam...I shouldn't be worried about her, but that's what's happening now. I can say that the kiss between Sanya and me didn't mean anything to me, but deep down, I know it does. Despite trying not to, I find myself hoping that we can sort out whatever we have.I know it sounds crazy, but I've thought about this. I'm not that numb to not realize that I could fall for her. It wasn't intentional, and I didn't plan to feel these things, especially for a woman whose only purpose seems to be making my life difficult.Maybe the heart is really foolish; it understands things that my mind can't comprehend. I shouldn't like her, but here I am, calling her, not caring if I sound overly concerned for her.When she closed the door after our kiss, I stayed outside. Sleep didn't come immediately; I just stood outside her door, contemplating whether to knock. But fear overcame me, so I went into my own room instead.I thought I'd talk to her the next morning, but as expected, she left to avoid me. W
Sanya...SEVERAL hours passed, and before we knew it, it was already evening. We decided to head to Alexa's condo to spend the night until Monday morning."Oh? What are you doing here? Get out!" Alexa exclaimed when she opened the door for us.Kyra, with a mischievous smile, entered and casually placed the stuff we bought on the couch, acting as if it were her own place."I thought Kyra already told you," I said, entering as well."She didn't say anything," Alexa replied grumpily."Really?" I looked at Kyra, who just smiled. "Is that true?""Don't believe her, Sanya. She's just messing with us," Kyra responded.I heard Alexa laugh behind me. "Just kidding, Sanya. Besides, even if you didn't tell me, it's okay. You're always welcome here."We chatted again while Kyra and I organized our things, including the tent we would use for the outing we were sharing."Are you sure everything's okay?" Alexa asked. "Did you forget anything? I'm sorry I can't join; you should have told me earlier t
Sanya...I was dumbfounded when Adam's lips touched mine. I didn't know what to do and how to react. I just stood there, staring. I felt like my brain suddenly stopped functioning. I didn't expect this to happen, maybe because I knew we hated each other. I always thought that kissing me would be the last thing he would want to do—or maybe I just thought so.I was about to close my eyes when my phone started ringing.Thank God! Saved by the bell!He moved away from me, and we briefly locked eyes before I turned around and took my cellphone from my bag, then entered my room. I didn't want to wait for him to say anything. I knew he would pester me with endless questions."Hey Sanya!""Oh, hey Kyra. What is it?""I just called to ask if you're ready. Remember, the outing is in 2 days.""I'm just getting ready. I still need to buy some things to bring.""Okay, cool. Let's go shopping together tomorrow, and then we can stay at Alexa's condo from Saturday night until Monday morning. It's clo
Adam...I was frozen while our lips were still touching. Neither of us moved, and I wasn't even sure if I was still breathing.I had kissed her before, but this time, it was completely different."Sanya," I heard someone call her from somewhere, and because of that, she seemed to snap out of it. She pushed me away which made me fall to the ground, Sanya stared at my face as if she couldn't believe that she had just kissed me. "Oh, there you are."We both looked at Lena, who kept glancing back and forth between us. "And you're here too, Az, what's going on?"We both fell silent while Lena seemed to wait for our response."Uh..." I thought about what to say. "I came here because I thought there was no one here, but Sanya was here.""Why are you there?" she asked again, so I stood up from where I was kneeling on the pavement."I had a fight with him," Sanya answered, Lena looked at her, she was looking down and couldn't meet my eyes. "I got here first, so as payback, I made him kneel. I
Sanya...I sat back down at the table, and Kyra and Alexa were both looking at me with raised eyebrows. Tora, on the other hand, was just grinning."What?" I asked."Was that PDA?" Alexa inquired."What?!" I raised my voice. "What are you talking about?""When you gave a drink to moron.""That was not!" I rolled my eyes at them. PDA? Just giving a drink is considered PDA? That seems a bit overreacting. "I do know how to say thank you, and that was my way of saying thank you for that one night.""Is that all it was?""Tora," I calmly mentioned her name, as there seemed to be more to her question."Okay," she said, raising both her eyebrows and giving me a creepy kind of smile."Stop that," I said with furrowed eyebrows."Stop what?""You and your creepy smile."She gave me a nonchalant shrug. "Whatever you say, Sanya." I sighed and just shook my head. "Oh, I almost forgot!" All of us at the table turned to look at her. "I need to talk to Miss Valderama about not joining the outing, so
Adam... I immediately woke up as my cellphone alarm rang. I needed to get ready for school. It's Wednesday, and as far as I know, Sanya's classes start in the afternoon today. After having breakfast and getting ready for school, I peeked into her room. I saw she was still fast asleep, so I quietly closed the door. I wasn't very focused during the lessons because I was lacking sleep, but when lunchtime came, I couldn't understand why I felt so restless. "Aren't you going to eat yet?" I heard Seid ask, so I just shook my head. "I'm not hungry yet, maybe later. Just for a moment," I replied. I stood up, not answering his question about where I was going. I went to a spot near the school entrance where I knew Sanya usually passed by with her car. I found myself wondering why I was here. Why was I waiting for her? I considered leaving, but my feet seemed to want to return there and check if she would arrive. I was surprised when I ran into Lena. "Oh, Az!" "Oh, hi, it's you," she wasn
Adam... SANYA closed the car door after getting out, but I didn't confront her. She's showing a different side of herself now, is this her darker side? "Oh, you're here," her Mom greeted us when we entered the door. Sanya didn't even kiss her Mom on the cheek and just walked past her into the house. I've noticed for a while now that she's distant from her parents, especially her Dad. I used to think it was about our marriage, but it's still the same, so what's the problem? "Hi Mom," I greeted her, giving her a kiss on the cheek. "Where's Dad?" She smiled at me. "He's upstairs. He just got back from work and I told him to come home early for dinner with you." "Work? Seriously, Mom?" Sanya raised an eyebrow at her. "Sanya," her Mom's voice carried a tone of warning when she called her name, and Sanya just rolled her eyes. Her attitude towards me, it turns out, is normal for her, even with her parents. "Oh, it looks like you're already here," a male voice called from upstairs, San
