My Badboy Knight 42. Illusion.
LEOI am in so much fucking trouble.My life has never been the same since these past few days. And it is all because of this girl before me. Most things about her like her snarky little voice and her feisty stubbornness should repulse me so much, but strangely, I am hooked on all that. I know I am attracted to her, but it is just a mere attraction.So why the fuck does it feel more like an addiction? An addiction making me say stupid things I never dreamt I would say to any woman. An addiction making me feel so eager right now to hear whatever she has to say to me, even if there is this tiny little voice ringing in the back of my mind that her response might hurt me.But I don't care. I just want to hear that voice of hers again, even if she makes it snarky again.Her breathing is racy, and with how close I am to her, I can also hear the faint thumping of her heart beating fast. Her eyes are still wide and locked with mine as she stares at me silently in shock.Yeah, I said what I sa
My Badboy Knight 43. Dracula.
LEO I don't object when Frosty suggests that we both eat together in the living room while watching TV. We do exactly just that, with our spicy garlic fried chicken before us and cans of beer laid out on top of the table. N*****x is on, and despite how badly I want to watch an action movie right now, I am silently stuck beside Frosty, helplessly watching an animation film called Castlevania with her instead. She chose the film—which is actually a series—and I silently agreed without any squabbles. I think I am already scoring some points in this whole friendship deal we have going on between us. Under normal circumstances, Frosty and I should be arguing or maybe dragging the remote control right now. In the film, we are already watching the part where some vampire lord called Dracula is threatening to destroy the entire world because of the death of his wife. Honestly, I don't have a problem with him seeking revenge. I just hate that he is trying to make the entire world suffer fo
My Badboy Knight 44. A Game On Me.
DIANEI feel like shit.Leo was right. We can lose anyone we love at any moment. He is also right in saying that it is important for us to always be present and available for the people we love as much as we can.He is right, and I am feeling like shit because my mum wasn't there for me. She was never there during any of my rehab withdrawal crises, or even blinked an eye about that night when I almost lost my life. No matter how hard I try to push down the bile now climbing up to my throat from my stomach, it just keeps building and rising along the tunnel of my throat, fighting to erupt out with a scream of anguish and pain.My fists dig tighter into the softness of my pillow underneath my head as a tear freely slips out of my right eye and sinks into the foam. A part of me still misses my mother, still wants her back in my life, even if she hasn't cared to call me or respond to any of my previous texts until now. That part of me still wants her to love me properly.But she doesn't.
My Badboy Knight 45. For My Heart.
DIANEA cool breeze ruffles my hair and neck, making me turn again with a soft quiet yawn on my bed, and I open my eyes.The sky outside is bright with morning light, the rays slipping into my room through the curtains. I should be up and preparing right now for school, but I remain fixed on my bed, succumbing to the swirling urge inside me.An urge making me dwell in my thoughts just a little while, my thoughts filled with Leo. And Leo.And only Leo.I kept my word last night. When I was done with my assignments and calls yesterday, I checked in on Leo, but he was already asleep on the couch, deeply and soundly sleeping like some fucking fallen angel with his lashes long and dark against the crests of his cheeks.He looked so serene and so peaceful that I could not bring myself to disturb him. The TV was already turned off, so I retired back to my room.At least, I got to check on him. He just didn't get to see me too.With a sigh, I blink a couple times and rise up from my bed, sit
My Badboy Knight 46. Favorite.
DIANEAfter having our breakfast together, Leo and I do the dishes before leaving the house. Amber flashes us a wave and a happy greeting when we pass by the reception. Leo and I wave back a happy morning greeting to her too.On reaching the condo parking space, Leo leads the way to a white Audi ride parked amongst the other luxurious cars in the lot, and believe me, his car just screams money, and money, and more tons of money.But what is money to Leo? It is probably nothing worth struggling or killing himself over for. He is the heir of a wealthy family that trades in gold, runs business and charity fundraising events that gives back to society, and thanks to his family, the labour market is at least fifteen percent less of hundreds of young people looking for jobs.Nevertheless, a sudden curious question pops into my head:Leo King can study in any rich, high class, advanced, reputable business school or university anywhere in the world, but why Middlesex? Why not Yale? Or Harvard
My Badboy Knight 47. My Suspicion Was Right.
DIANEWhen we finally arrive at school, Leo drops me off in front of my department before driving off to his. Earlier after our conversation about Indie rock, he had asked me if we could go home together after my classes. I kindly objected, because my classes for the day were more than his, and I did not want to bother him by making him wait in school for me.Also, he made mention of a finals’ project he is to discuss with some of his colleagues today after school, but he wanted to drive me home first. That only intensified my objection.Today, I have about four classes to attend, and I start the first class with Crystal seated by my side. The lecture is slated for one hour, thirty minutes, but despite the time magnanimity, the class breezes over, and like a flash before my eyes, Crys and I are already getting settled in for the second class.Well, it is true of the saying that time is man's greatest enemy. We just have to make better use of it so it does not win over us.The second c
My Badboy Knight 48. Asher.
DIANE Asher drives me to my house first, and it is all thanks to Crystal who made the suggestion. When he arrives, he parks briefly, and I alight from his car. By the way, his car does not smell like rotten fish. It smells more like apple cherry. “Thanks.” I say to him after closing the door. “You're welcome. I'll be expecting your call, Diane.” He confesses, looking at me like he is begging me not to rip his card into shreds when I am nestled inside the comfort of my room. Come on Asher Ford, I believe that is my choice to make. I take a step back away from the car. “Don't expect anything Asher. Once again, thanks for the ride. Please take my friend home safely.” “I will.” He answers. I nod and turn to Crystal, who is settled in the backseat. “Alright Crys, bye.” “Bye Dee.” she responds to me cheerfully before pinning her focus back to her phone in her hands, smiling at whatever that it is staring back up at her from her phone screen. Asher finally starts the car and drives o
