2024-10-29 19:42:56WRONG. Because I didn’t do it only for a day. Ever since that moment, Tyler often asked for my help, to the point that he even took me to his home to have our tutoring sessions together. I didn’t tell Nathan about it, since I knew that he wouldn’t allow me to go. And also, I trust Tyler enough that he wouldn’t do anything bad towards me.
“Here... Maybe we can do it here. Forgive me for my rubbish home,” he stayed, before clearing the table from the bottles of bear spread across of it.
“It’s alright... Can I suggest something? Maybe you could use a little bit lights to make your home brighter. I mean, this apartment is not that bad.”
“No. If I were you, I wouldn’t touch anything. My father would be mad as fuck. Sorry for the word.”
“Oh... But why? I mean... Is there something wrong with him?”
“Do you remember the time that you called me out

“BREAK up with him, Natalia. This is not you...” he demanded, as if he owns my life.“No! Why can’t you just be happy for me, Nathan? Is it because it’s Tyler? If you’re thinking like that because he is known as the bad boy, then think again, Nat. You don’t know him that much. Just let him prove it to me that he deserves me... Just please give him a chance first...”“I don’t know him? Maybe yes, and neither do you.” I rolled my eyes upon him, getting annoyed at the fact that he’s not supporting my decisions in life anymore. And then he said something that completely changed the way I looked at him. He used my manual against me, one thing that is highly unacceptable for myself.“How about your manual, huh? I thought there is a rule written on that shit that you would never ever date a guy? What happened to you, Natalia?!”“I don’t rea
Natalia’s High School Manual CHAPTER 44: The Promposal
TOMORROW night will be our prom, yet nobody asked me to be their date yet. Tyler is not telling me anything about it, and I also don’t what to initiate something because that would make me look like I was too desperate to have a date for that night. I sighed, before I decided to go to the comfort room, hoping that I can release the nervousness that I have in there. Aside from the prom, I’m also thinking about Nathan and his mom. It was confirmed, they left the country to go somewhere else... Without even bidding a single good bye to any of us, even Scott, his next closest friend. I took a deep breath, before I decided to go out of the cubicle. But as I was about to, I heard a familiar voices laughing outside, making me stop for a moment. It was Freeda and her squad.“Yes, queen. I’m sure that your plan will be successful. All we need is a little bit of within for us, alright?” it was L
Natalia’s High School Manual CHAPTER 45: Letters To Nathan
“MAY I have this dance?” he asked me.“Of course...” I took his hand, before he led me to the dance floor. He put my hands around his neck, before he wrapped his around my waist. And just like that, the two of us began swaying with the music. I just wish that my bestfriend is here... That Nathan is here to witness everything that we can see tonight.“Are you alright? Why do you look so sad?” Tyler asked me, making me come back to my senses.“Nothing... I just wish that... My bestfriend if here. Nathan is gone, Tyler. Just like that. And the last thing we did together is to fight.”“Fight about me? I’m sorry, Natalia. I didn’t mean to be the cause of that. I just... I wanted to be with you. That is all I ever wanted, Nat.”“It’s alright. It’s not your
Natalia’s High School Manual CHAPTER 46: Season Four
SENIORS. Our last year in high school. Everything definitely went into a flash. I never thought that I will nearly survive the most difficult, yet most memorable part of my life. It’s just Scott and me now, though I could still never forget the way how Nathan treated me as his bestfriend before. It’s been a year since he left, yet here I am, still hoping that he will come back for me to be able to apologize for everything... Including when I chose not to listen to him before. I continued sending him mails, and that makes rule number twenty-eight of my manual, which is, “Never give up.” Since it was already our last year in high school, Scott and I decided not to run for the school council officials anymore. We just wanted to enjoy life, the way it is and our last year being in Jackson High. Just like last year, I decided to meet up with Scott first before lo
Natalia’s High School Manual CHAPTER 47: Tyler’s Game Over
MONTHS passed by. I thought that I will be able to enjoy my last year in high school but I didn’t, because Nathan keep on ignoring me. I even ask for Scott’s help but to no avail. I’m slowly losing against time since I knew that once we applied for college, there is a possibility that I won’t be able to see him again. The school festival is coming nearer and nearer, so the students became busier than the passed few days. Scott and Nathan became our leaders when it comes to creating a booth for the festival, and they are too busy planning for it so I decided to come home alone. But then, while walking near the parking lot of the school, I stopped, seeing Tyler staring at my direction, while resting upon his motorcycle. The moment that he saw my face, he immediately stood up, before walking towards me.“Natalia...”“Tyler...” I blankly stated, not knowing ho
Natalia’s High School Manual CHAPTER 48: The Jail Booth
NATHAN came over my direction, glaring at me as if I was the one who did something wrong. I bit my lower lip, before wiping away my tears, not wanting him to see me being weak and vulnerable. After all, he is not my best friend anymore.“What’s your problem?!” he asked, as if questioning me.“Did you really come here just to ask me that?” I asked him back, my voice slightly breaking out.“Yes. You’re making a big deal out of picking colors for our booth. You are making me look like a bad person.”“Because you’re being one, Nathan! Why are you acting like a jerk all of the sudden? Is this because–”“This conversation is over.” He was about to walk away when I pulled his arm, not wanting him to go without finishing our conversation. He pulled his arms away from me, retrieving it while glaring upon my direction.

“SCOTT! What happened? Have you two been captured as well?” I stood up, before asking him. The officers of the booth pushed them inside, together with us. Becca is frowning, as if she can’t believe that she needed to stay here with us.“Yes. I’m sorry for not answering your calls. I was about to follow Nathan to get the foils but then, those students catch me as if I’m doing something illegal.“Well, that’s how they go. Anyways, how long does we have to stay here?” Nathan asked the other students, and they chuckled.“Two hours at most, if you don’t have a friend to bail you out.” The four of us frowned, before sitting on the ground. We sat there, quietly. It felt awkward, being together again after a couple of months of being enemies with Becca. Scott tried calling some of his basketball teammates, and thankfully, one of them bail us ou

AFTER we went home, Nathan left me in the doorstep without saying another word. I stood there, feeling sorry for myself because I didn’t even ask Nathan if he already forgive me or even thank him for taking me home. I sighed, before turning around to get inside. But just as I was about to, the door opened up.on it’s own, revealing my mother behind it who looked so surprised to see me.“Natalia... Dear, why are you home so late? It’s nearly six in the evening... We still have a dinner in your Aunt Jessica’s place.”“What?! In Nathan’s house?”“Yes. I forget to tell you about it yesterday. You two should spend some time together. So Jessica and I decided to have a sleepover there.”“But Mom...” I trailed off, thinking that she wouldn’t understand our complicated situation even if I try to explain it.“Come on.

GRADUATION day. Today is the day that we all been waiting for, when we can finally be a college student... More like having another responsibilities but still, another journey where in we can proudly say that we survived high school, the most scary and unexpected part of our lives.“Ready? Come, I can’t wait to march and get my diploma on stage,” Nathan stated, before attempting to touch my hair.“Don’t! Do you know how many hours my Mom spent on my hair?” I asked him, and he chuckled.“You really wanted to look pretty, huh?”“Of course. This is the last time that we are going to see some of our classmates. Might as well leave a good impression on them.”“Whatever. You know that no matter what happens, you will always look beautiful for me,” he answered, before pinching my cheeks as he noticed that I am blushing. I p

“JUST follow me.” The two of us knocked on the door, before it swing opened, revealing my mother who immediately gave us a warm smile plastered on her face.“Hi, Nats. Why are you home so early? No celebration for the results of the exam, eh?”“Mom don’t listen to Nathan’s nonsense words,” warned her.“What are you talking about?”“This is not pure nonsense, Aunt. I’m here because I wanted to tell you something...”“And what is that, Nathan?”“I don’t want your daughter to be my best friend anymore. I want her to be more than that... I love your daughter, and I want her to be my girlfriend. So please, would you allow me to court her, please?” Nathan stated, making me and my mother gasped in shock.“You want my daughter to be your girlfriend?” my Mom asked him, and he immediately nodded, as

FEW days passed by. Today will be out final exam, yet I haven’t got the chance to talk to Nathan... Nor he ever did something to show signs that he wanted to spend some time with me as well... Alone. During our review sessions, I tried to act fine, knowing that the squad will keep on nagging us about our situation. But then, as time passes by, Nathan already realized that something is wrong, making him chase after me every single time that he will see me walking on the hallways of Jackson High. I tried my best to avoid him, but to no avail. He just keeps on following me, and I have no other choice but to talk to him just like what happened this morning.“Nat... Do you want us to have a great lunch together after the exams?” he asked me.“Uhm... Maybe. It depends how hard the exam is, Nathan.”“No endearment this time?” he asked me, and I shook my head in disapproval.“Nat is not an endear

WHEN the dance ended, the students came in circle around the bonfire, before the organizers have us two strings, one with the color of red and one with a color of blue. They wanted us to give the red color strings to the people we wanted to thank, and the blue one to the people we wanted to apologize to. The reflection began to start, and of course, Becca gave both of her strings to Scott, the same way that he did. Nathan and I chuckled to himself, watching the two of them nearly kiss. Nathan gave me his red string, while I gave him the blue one.“Thank you, Natalia. Thank you for being my best friend. And for not giving up on me. You made my high school so memorable.”“Aww... Here. Take my blue string. Sorry for everything. For not listening to you... For being too stubborn all the time. I’m always glad to have you as my best friend, Nathan.” He hugged me, and I di

TWO days passed by. We ran out of activities to do during our retreat, so the organizers decided to have a campfire night later on, during our last night in the retreat. Everything went fine, or so I thought. Because it seems like Freeda and her squad was unable to bully me became Nathan is always around, as well as Scott to Becca. I guess they will have to find a proper time to do something towards us.“Ready for the campfire later tonight? I heard that there will be dance and reflection in front of the bonfire later on,” Scott explained, sounding very excited.“Really? That would be great. Let us enjoy our last night together, alright?” Becca added, before taking a fries from my plate.“Well, seems like the two of you will be enjoying that bonfire activity later on,” Nathan mischievously answered, teasing them.“Let’s see. Maybe you will too, with Natalia.”“You&rsqu
