Sunny’s POV
I woke up feeling something hugging me. Ah, maybe Mira is already here. She went here to my room as soon as she arrived. That girl is such a baby, really. “Mira, you should go back to your—
As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw Damon’s face just an inch closer to mine. He was sleeping soundly while hugging me as if I’m his pillow. All the pillows that I put between us were already scattered on the floor, as if he kicked it away while he was asleep.
“H-Hey Damon, w-what the hell do you think you’re doing?! L-Let go of me!” I said as I tried to push him away, but he was too strong. He kept on hugging me tightly, like a kid. “I-I said let go of me! You’ll let go of me or I’ll kick your ass?”
Still, he didn’t move. I had no choice but to stare at his sleeping face. In fairness, he looks innocent when he’s asleep. So far when he’s awake. He has these thick black eySUNNY’S POVI just ran and ran until my feet felt weak and I had no choice but to stop and sit on a bench near the playground where I used to go whenever I want to be alone.‘Mom, Dad, Henry, and I are already engaged.’I can still recall how Mira said that with a huge smile on her face. On their faces.They are already getting married. Henry’s getting married…Tears kept on running down my face, I tried to wipe them away, but it just won’t stop. Getting married? Why? Why do they have to get married? I don’t understand… I don’t want Henry to get married… I love him…“Sunny…”I quickly stood up upon hearing my sister’s voice. I was about to walk away from her, but she was able to grab my hand. “Sunny, why are you running away? Are you mad? Do you still love Henry?”“I-I just want to be alone. P-Please leave me alone.&
Sunny’s POV“You know what? You’re right, I think ice cream really helps a lot.” I said to Damon while we were eating ice cream inside an ice cream parlor.“My mom used to buy me ice cream whenever I get hurt before. She always does that even when I’m already grown up. That’s why I get used to eating ice cream whenever I feel sad or hurt.”I nodded, “I think your parents love you so much. They care about you so much, and they are kind too. You are so lucky to have them.”“You too. You are so lucky to have such great and funny parents. They are so entertaining and kind-hearted.” He said, while eating his vanilla ice cream.“But I’m not their favorite child. You know, my sister has always been the star of our family. The most favored and loved child while I’m the one who always gets the leftovers. I was always so envious because she easily gets what she wants, s
Damon’s POVI immediately took my phone out of my pocket as soon as Sunny went inside their house. “Edward, you want to drink?”“Sir?”“Let’s meet at my house,” I said, then I hanged up the phone.I couldn’t ask Sunny to drink with me, of course. She’s a woman, and I don’t think she drinks too. Well, ice cream works for her every single time. What a crybaby. For sure she’s going to cry herself to sleep again.“Lemon?”I stopped walking as soon as I heard that voice. I turned around and saw Eris standing there while looking at me. “Can we talk for a while?”***“Do you still remember the times when we used to play hide and seek when we were just kids?” Eris asked while she was leaning her head on my shoulder.We’re at the playground where we used to play when we were just kids. “I remember that. You used to
Sunny’s POV“The sky looks beautiful tonight, isn’t it?” Henry asked me as he looked up at the sky. We were sitting on the swings at the playground near our house. The sun has finally set that’s why there were no kids playing around anymore. The only thing that can be heard is the sound of the whistling wind as it blew the trees.“Yeah, it looks beautiful,” I said, without looking at it.Henry suddenly started moving his swing gently. “Do you know how beautiful your name is, Sunny? It’s like joy, happiness, and hope. I like it so much.”“But you like the moon more, right?”“Well, I like the sun too. It gives us hope, and it’s as if it’s saying that there will be better days.” He said.I heaved a sigh. For sure he’s just saying that because he wants to make me feel better. As if I still don’t know that he never liked me, anyway.
Sunny’s POV“Oh my God, I can’t believe my oldest daughter’s already getting married…” said mom while she was looking at Mira who’s being groomed by her stylist.“Mom, it’s not as if I’m going to a faraway land, I’m just getting married, I’m still alive,” Mira said, almost laughing because of how over-reacting our mom was.I sat on the stool next to Mira. “She’s been like that for years, Mira. Remember when you first go to a school trip? She cried too, she even said that we should follow you there. Oh, and also when you go to the prom, mom said you’ll get pregnant soon so we’ll have to be prepared. God, can you just see how exaggerated that is?”“Of course, I’m worried because I’m your mom and you’re my only daughter. Oh God, my daughters are really growing too fast. When Sunny finally graduated, for sure she’ll get ma
Sunny’s POV“Hey nerdy, doing your witchcrafts again?” the ultimate devil in my life appeared again while I was peacefully eating my food in a corner of this huge wedding reception while everyone was busy talking and dancing with each other.I glared at him with a strawberry cupcake in my mouth. “Shut up and leave me alone.”“And why would I leave you alone? So that you could cry?”“C-Cry? What the hell are you saying? Why would I even cry?”“You look like you were about to cry when Henry kissed your sister.” He said as he sat next to me and put his food above my table. “I was about to hand you the tissues but I thought it would be fun to just watch you.”I ate all the cupcake before looking at him. “H-Hey, in your information, you were the one who looked like crying! Especially when you saw Mira walking down the aisle with that huge smile on her face while wal
Sunny’s POV“So, how’s your relationship with Damon Furlord going?” asked Natalie, while we were eating inside the school cafeteria. My sister and Henry went back to Paris to visit Henry’s grandparents and also to have their honeymoon there. And so here I am, going back to my usual boring life.“Well, we’re fine. Unfortunately, he’s still alive.”Natalie laughed. “You know what, Sunny? You really are so funny hahaha! I’ve never seen a couple like you. Mostly, couples love to cling into each other’s arms and make out even in front of everybody while you and Damon, you just keep on teasing and mocking each other.”“Hehe… that’s right, we’re different.”Because we’re not really in a relationship, we’re enemies.“Sunny.”I looked up when someone suddenly called my name with a familiar voice. Why do people lo
Sunny’s POVI rolled my eyes. “I have to go now, I still need to do my homework so please don’t you dare call me again in the middle of the night just to buy you an ice cream!”“Wait, I’m not done with you yet, nerdy!”“What else do you want?!”“H-Hey! Don’t talk to me like that!”I looked at him. “What else do you want, young master?”“Drink that coffee first.”“What?”“I don’t know if you put some poison in that coffee so you have to taste it first.”“If only I could do that, I’d love to,” I said as I reached for his mug.“Damon my loveeeesssssss!!!”Then the door of his office went open. Because of surprise, the mug slipped through my fingers and fell to the floor. A red-haired woman suddenly appeared wearing a short black dress that almost showed her
Sunny’s POVI was looking down the whole time while Damon and I were walking through the street. No one’s speaking between us after what just happened.I still can’t believe Jared did that to me.I thought he was nice. I even thought that I could give him my heart and have him as my first boyfriend but I was wrong. Maybe Kayla was right, I’m so gullible.“Where do you want to go now?” Damon finally spoke.“I just want to go home.” I mumbled.“But I don’t want to go home yet.” He said.I didn’t answer him.I’m not comfortable with him ever since what happened that night. And he even told Kayla and Jared that he loves me a while ago. For sure he did that just so I wouldn’t look so pitiful.“I will just ride a bus.” I said as I was about to walk away but he grabbed my hand.“Sunny.”I looked at him witho
Sunny’s POV“Their cordon bleu tastes fantastic, right?” Jared asked me while we were walking outside the mall.I smiled. “Yeah, and I also liked the tiramisu.”“You’re right. Where do you want to go next, by the way?”“Hmm. I think I know a cable car near here. Would you like to try riding it?”“Really? Sure! Let’s go!”“Okay! Hahaha!”We started walking again. I was glancing at Jared all the time that’s why I didn’t notice that there was a car coming to my way. “Sunny!”“Huh?”Jared immediately pulled me close to him. “Are you alright?”“Y-yeah. T-Thanks.”“Here. Walk on this side.” He said as he pulled me to his other side. “It’s safer there.”I smiled at him. “Uhm.”“I will protect you no matter
Sunny’s POV“Sunny! Jared is already downstairs!” I heard my mom’s loud high-pitched voice who’s better at waking me up than my alarm clock.I walked to the door and opened it. Mom got surprised upon seeing me fully dressed already. “Is the world going to end today?” she mumbled why eyeing me from my head down to my feet.“Huh?”“You’re fully dressed. Usually, at this time you’re still sleeping soundly in your bed.” Mom suddenly touched my face. “What’s wrong, Sunny? Are you sick? Where’s my youngest daughter, huh?! Where is my lazy little Sunsun?!!”“Mom.”She looked at me skeptically. “Tell me, are you that excited to see Jared?”“H-Huh? W-What Are you saying?”“You’re having a date today, aren’t you? You’re wearing a pink sundress and you’re not with your eyeg
Damon’s POV“Mr. Furlord, you have a visitor.” said Edward.I put my pen down and looked at him. “Who is it?”“It’s Mr. Knight. Jared Knight, Sir.”“Let him in,” I said.I leaned on my swivel chair as I waited for the door to open. What is that asshole doing here? I balled my hand into a fist. Just hearing his name makes me feel mad already.The door of my office went open and I immediately saw Jared walking towards me with that usual annoying smile on his face. “Good Morning, Mr. Furlord.”“What do you want from me?” I asked without looking at him.“I want to talk to you.”“I don’t have time for you.”“It’s about Sunny.”I stopped for a while, I gripped tight of my pen, and glared at him. “What about her?”“I like Sunny.” He blurted.I
Sunny’s POV“Sunny, you should clear those rumors up immediately. Damon might even know about it and he’ll surely get jealous!” Mira said over the phone.I fixed the bowtie of my uniform while pressing my phone on my right ear using my right shoulder. “I will make it clear later. And I will also talk to Jared about it.”“That’s right. You shouldn’t have any romantic relationship with some other guy except Damon. For sure he’ll get super jealous.”“As if he really would.”“Of course, he would, he’s your boyfriend!”“He’s not my boyfriend, Mira.” I said as I finally put my glasses on.She went silent for a while, probably processing what I just said. “H-He’s not your—What?!”“We were just pretending,” I replied.“What?! What are you saying? Sunny, are you serious?&rdquo
Damon’s POVI threw my phone to the floor when I saw what article has been running in the internet. How dare that asshole announced to the public that he’s Sunny’s boyfriend. Didn’t I tell him too before that Sunny is my girlfriend?!And that woman, how dare she agree to that? Does she really like that moron?!“Damon honey, have you read the news?! It’s all about Sunny and Jared Knight! Did you guys break up? Why didn’t you tell me?!” Mom came running inside my room freaking out while showing me her phone with the damn article again.“We didn’t break up, mom.”“W-What? Then what is it? Why is she with that man?”I heaved a deep sigh. “I don’t know. I’ll talk to her later, okay? That news is probably fake. Maybe the paparazzi just made it up. Sunny is my girlfriend.”“Oh Damon, please make it clear. Don’t let Sunny be taken a
Damon’s POVI was busy signing all the papers that I have to sign while I was sitting on my swivel chair inside my personal office here in the hotel where I stayed for a while when someone suddenly knocked. “Come in.”The door opened. It was Edward.“Sorry to interrupt you, Mr. Furlord.”“It’s alright. What is it?” I asked him as I put my pen on my table before looking at him.Edward walked towards me, holding an envelope in his hand. “Someone sent this here, Mr. Furlord.” He said as he handed me the envelope.“From who?”“It doesn’t have a name or address where it came from, Sir. It only has your name,” he replied.I took the envelope and opened it. It doesn’t really have a name on it, but they wrote my name in the upper right corner.It surprised me when I saw who the person in those photos was. It was Sunny and Jared. They
Sunny’s POVI woke up because someone keeps on knocking on my door. “Sunny! Sunny! Wake up there!”I sat up on my bed and reached for my glasses. It was mom. I wonder what does she wants from me again. I stood up and walked towards my door, and opened it. “Mom, how many times do I have to tell you that—“Jared is waiting for you downstairs.”“Tell him I don’t—W-What?!”“Jared Knight! That pop star who sent you home once!”“Yeah I know, I know! W-Where is he?”I immediately ran downstairs without even thinking about how I look or remembering that I just woke up. I saw Jared sitting on the couch while scrolling through his phone. “J-Jared.”He put his phone inside the pocket of his black jeans and stood up as he looked at me. A huge smile appeared on his face as soon as he saw me. “Sunny. Good Morning.”“
Sunny’s POV“Are you alright, Sunny?” Jared asked me as soon as we were able to escape from Kayla and her stupid friends.I looked at his hand that was holding mine. “I’m alright, Jared.”He let go of my hand. “You should’ve told me about that in the first place. You should have told us about it.”“I didn’t want you and Natalie to be involved. I’m the one they’re actually targeting anyway.”“But we’re your friends.”“I’m sorry.”Jared heaved a sigh. “The next time Kayla and her friends try to hurt you again, just tell me, okay?”“Jared, Natalie might really tell everyone about your real identity.”“I don’t care about that, okay? Your safety is more important to me.”I looked at Jared with my eyes widened upon hearing what he just said. That was the very f
