Last Updated:
2021-09-06 01:00:55Before Care made a move against Madelaine Salvador, she had few expectations of dreadful consequences. She was confident of dealing any blows but fast forward to the present time, she realized she acted out of her emotions. And once again, she loses because of it.
"Yes, I testify! What's worse is when I tried to stop Care.. She.. s-she.." the so-called 'girl witness' stuttered miserably. She had to close her eyes so she could finish her sentence, "She he-hit me with a c-cha.. ir!"
"Seriously, you two-faced opportunist!" she cussed, about to grab the hair of the shameless liar.
Eli abruptly held her waist restricting her reach enough time for the girl to stagger, backed against a wall. Frightened by the murderous look on Caress Aragon's face, she burst into an ugly cry. On the other hand, Mandy flau

Away from the entrance and at the farthest corner of the cafeteria, Care and Eli settled in. They sat across each other on the table not that it matters since the little number of students around have a world of their own. The wall clock behind cashier counters suspended on 9:00 a.m. sharp implied an idle time for the business. Even so, an unspoken agreement seemed to forge between them: the careless physical contact must not happen again. She sneaked glances at him who chewed on his veggie and rice without pauses. Either he must really be starving or just speeding up to attend class, she concluded. A hand clutched her heart to the extent of being unable to feign ignorance. She stood up before he noticed the change of emotion her eyes conveyed. "Ara..." his voice trailed off as the realization hit him.

Yes, this is the kind of relationship that exists between them. The woman she called mother stared at her the same way the masses glowered at a convicted murderer. Even with eyes closed, the sickened expression on Helena Aragon was easy to visualize. Her hatred could easily be felt by her mere breathing and Care had to live with that fact everyday. It hurts, she wanted to cry out. Although she is confused what part of her ached greater. Was it her heart yearning for mother's love or her cheek swollen from the slap given by the same woman she begged affection for? "All those years, you put up a good act. So WHAT!? If you assumed that earned your place, better wake up, child. You must keep up with the standards or else!" Ena threatened. She smirked.

People often quote that time ticks faster whenever a person is happy. Her ride with Eli falls under the category though she won't ever verbally admit. Even so, her frowning face was sufficient proof. Her frown became defined when they drove past the colossal steel gates of Aurum University. He headed to the west where he must have planned to drop her because she noticed a lady in black standing at the 11th lamppost. She recognized her at first glance! It was Aster, beyond the shadow of doubt. Now, she wondered when he texted her friend during the whole ride. Was she really that absorbed to the moment?! SHAME! She got off before he hit the breaks. Thus he caught her wrist which earned him a death glare. In spite of her aggressive struggle to break

[TRIGGER WARNING: contains sensitive themes] "I'm a fighter through and through!" She convinced herself. She veered on a cornerstone leading to the left wing of the administration building as she repeated the mantra mentally. Oblivious of her surroundings, a man grabbed the golden opportunity to wrap his arm around her shoulders then treaded alongside her. She wriggled in protest only inciting him to tighten his hold. "HANDS OFF!" She spat. "Heard you'd sleep with anyone if I do your bidding. Try me, sexy." he whispered right next to her ears. THE NERVE! "What an idiot! I said hands off! She yelled, frustrated.

Dialing Care's number for the nth time to no avail, Aster heaved a problematic sigh. An idea lurks in mind yet it was something she normally won't dare doing, trespassing. She gave in at the last minute because it was admittedly her best chance to talk to Care. The perks of being overly familiar to the Aragon estate is finally put to use as she slipped through the wall located at the edge of their boundary. A small hole lies in a certain wall covered by bushes on the outside while an old oak tree inside which housed a treehouse. She hurried to the backdoor of the mansion. Since she knew where to go from indoors, she reached her room nice and smooth. She was hanging around the balcony when she heard aggressive growls reverberating somewhere on the porch. Based on what she remembered, Care’s mom owned a pack of dogs that ironically stayed at the

For a moment, Aster was at loss. The seconds after she turned her back was kind of fuzzy. It left a gaping hole that boggled her mind. The only plausible explanation was it must be because of shock. Mandy actually threw a poor vase at the window creating an imperfect circle fit for a person to jump into. Among all of them who seemed in processing stage, Ms. Sanz was first to recover. "You may leave, Aster, Care and Mrs. Aragon. I believe I need to talk in private with the Salvadors." She declared. They did go out before things went awry. This is the second time Care saw Mandy manifest her violent tendencies. It washonestly alarming. Remember the girl she hit with a chair who connived with her in the end?

Karma did hit the last second before Mandy claimed victory. She was a thumb away from witnessing the high and mighty Caress Aragon yield or much better, kneel and beg for mercy. How fast tables turned, really! "Excuse me for a while, Mayor. Deputies from the Anti-bullying Division arrived just now on the Admininstration Office." Ms. Sanz declared. Don't leave, she wanted to beg the old hag. However, the door was closed the next second. Arnaldo fixed his attention on his phone ignoring her sneaking glances and presence altogether. The veins protruded on his forehead as he contacted his secretary, lawyer and anyone relevant to cover the disaster waiting to ruin his political career.

A lone fighter. She was fine with that. After all, this mess was her doing. Fired up because of her newfound purpose, she hailed a cab since she planned to wait for Eli in Tiya Rosa's cottage. The split-second shocked expression of the driver while she was instructing him the address was overlooked by her eyes fixating outside as though by some miracle, Eli would pop out of nowhere. By the next minutes, she slept on the passenger seat without her intending to. The faint sound of engines dying awoke her and the first thing welcoming her sight was a police station. She jolted and glared at the driver about to step outside to open her door. "Mister, what the actual crap? I'm capable of paying fare, for your information." She asserted in a high, irritated pitch.

Opposite ends coiled. Its red shimmer turned somber as the string of fates was completely cut off. Care instinctively clutched her chest while gasping for air and her tears trickling on the sand one after another, floored by a longing so intense that plagued her soul. If she could only reach or seize what was amiss deep within her, she would! On the other hand, Eli was motionless. The disunion crushed him just as much through an unsettling feeling that shook his whole body; hollowed sensations even felt by his fingertips. His tears fell, too, conveying the depth of his pain he has yet the capacity to comprehend. WHOOSH! Gusts of winds sent their photo memento adrift the air current while waves swallowed the rusty scissors unbeknownst to them because of the unprecedented arrival of two myst

She nearly believed she was charcoal lit on a furnace.

Throughout the day, she was a social butterfly again in order to remind herself who she is. She is hellbent on erasing any traces of Aurelia Vicentes in herself. Pushing Ram's death at the farthest corner of her mind was what she believed the first requirement until Eli showed up. The man she thought warmhearted was actually capable of ruthlessness. He shamed her with black rose bearing a symbolic meaning of deep-seated hatred, rudely turned his back at her and ignored her calls. Lots of onlookers started murmuring to each other. Gossips will surely blow up if she follows him further. Nonetheless, her poor legs, yet to recuperate from strenuous physical activities she had been forced through, ran after him. "Eli, wait!" she shouted half-begging. He kept his brisk pace as if he heard nothin

Years ago, Eli's recollection of the past From the young age of six, his father frequently pats his head and tells Eliseo, "Son, as the eldest, I trust you would be responsible. Look after your siblings." People commend their family for living in virtue despite their poverty. It confused him since he knew money was a constant problem to them. One time, he roused from bed due to thirst. Faint sobs were picked by his ears as he passed from the room of his parents. Coincidentally, his Mama emerged through the door opening. Her eyes dilated; surprised he was still up. She averted his gaze quickly. Eli, being a filial son, wrapped his arms around her tiny waist. "Papa and I are blessed to have a very responsible
