Caren stopped one of her classmates who was about to sit beside her.
Today was the day of Caren's camping. We were already seated on the bus assigned to her class. I had no choice but to tag along with her.
“So, this seat is reserved for me?” I asked Caren, a satisfied smirk on my face. "I'm touched."
“Shut up. I just don't want someone to hear me while I'm talking to you," she answered defensively. “I didn’t do it for you." She rolled her eyes and looked at the window. “This whole camping idea is so boring.”
“Good morning, class.”
What the fuck

"I HATE it here! Why did they have to confiscate our phones?!"Caren irritatingly kicked the dry leaves in front of her. She was in a bad mood after Lenos confiscated her phone before we got off the bus.It took us two hours before we arrived at our drop off point. From there, we hiked for almost an hour until we reached the camping site."Everyone, gather around here."Caren and I both looked at the student speaking in front. He was holding a mini-megaphone. Caren told me that guy is their student leader."We are not just gathered here to contribute to saving the environment, we are also here to enjoy the beauty of our mother nature while bonding with our co-students…"

"CAREN, what are you doing?" Caren stopped from kicking the leaves on the ground when she heard her name being called. We both turned to where the voice came from. A woman a few meters away from us was looking at Caren with a frown on her face. If I remember correctly, that woman is her class adviser. "Go with your classmates, Caren," the teacher said to her. "Help them." I looked at where Caren's classmates were. Everyone was busy building tents. Even the nerd—Marcus, was helping his classmates. Caren was the only one who wasn't doing anything. Caren rolled her eyes and was forced to join her classmates. "Fuck this stupid camp." Ever since her phone was taken away from her, Caren's mood got

“FUCK this signal! What kind of place is this?"I heard Caren say as she kept on swaying her phone to the air. I don’t even know how she got her phone back."We're in the middle of the mountain. Of course, you won't find any network connection here."It was already past dinner time. I looked up and found a cluster of stars in the sky. It didn't rain the whole day and the weather just got better.“I need to call Jake.”My eyes went back to Caren. “Oh, please. That boy doesn't love you."She glared at me. “Just shut up!""How did you get back your phone, anyway?" I asked her. "D

"HEY, baby. What's wrong?"I looked at Lenos' concerned face. Lenos caught me in a bad mood when we met today during our break time."Is it Miss Carlos again?" he asked. He was talking about my terror professor in Physics that I hated so much.I shook my head. Miss Carlos was absent from class today. "It's my dysmenorrhea." It was my time of the month and dysmenorrhea was fucking killing me. "I forgot to bring my painkiller."Lenos sighed as he gently caressed my hair."Let's go to the clinic," he softly said to me.He took my bag that I was holding and slid it on his shoulders. "You can rest there first while waiting for your next class."&ldq

"WHERE are you going?"I asked Caren as soon as she got out of the shower.While having dinner earlier, I heard her say to Aunt Feling that she's going to her classmate's house tonight for a school project. But of course, I know better."You heard me earlier, right? I'm going to my classmate's house."I smirked at her. "And do you really think you can fool me?"She rolled her eyes. "Fine. I'm gonna go to Jake's place. Satisfied?" She picked up her wristwatch on the nightstand.I frowned. "At this hour?" It was already eight in the evening."It is Jake's birthday today," she answered me. "There's a pa

“I WANT to have a car just like that one someday!”I said to Lenos as we walked past by a black SUV that was parked outside the bar where I was working. “But I want mine matte," I continued.I stopped myself from yawning. I just got out of work. It was already Saturday morning. My shift got extended for two hours because it's the weekend. I already told Lenos not to fetch me after work but when I left the bar, he was already waiting for me outside.“Just your car?" Lenos asked, his eyebrows slightly raised.I pouted. “You already have a car.”"It's not mine. It's my parents," he said.

I COULDN'T help but stare at Lenos as he opened the door of the passenger seat for me. He used to always do this for me.“You don’t need to do this,” I told him with a straight face. “I can easily pass through things, you know. I'm invisible."Lenos just smiled at me. Damn. That freaking smile. I wanted to erase it from his face. “But I want to.”I was attacked by familiar sensations as I entered his car. His car smelled familiar. It smelled of him…Aventus Creed. After ten years, he didn't even manage to change his perfume!“What happened to Caren? Did she run away?” Lenos asked me as we left the parking area of the hospital.I absentmindedly stare

"ARE you okay?" I asked Caren. We were outside the police station and just waiting for Lenos to come out. He was still talking to the investigator inside.Caren's boyfriend—correction, ex-boyfriend together with his friends were all arrested after the police found a packet of marijuana and party drugs in his condo unit.They were inside the police station and refused to give a statement until their lawyers showed up.Caren and some other guests were also brought to the station to collect their statements for the investigation. Because Caren was a minor and it was proven that she wasn't involved and wasn't aware of Jake's doing, she was released by the police."Okay?" she uttered. Her eyes were swollen from crying. "Do you think that after wh

"CRESIA." It was Lenos who welcomed me the moment I opened my eyes. He was sitting beside me while holding my hand."Lenos…" I felt hot tears streamed down my face. "I'm alive, right?" I look at his face. "You remembered me, right?"He nodded. "Of course," he said. I felt his hand on mine. "You just made me worried.""What happened?" I asked him, confused. I looked at his face. His eyes were red from crying. Why did he cry?"You passed out in the middle of the street," he answered. He brought my hand to his lips and kissed it while looking at me."Thank God nothing happened because I won't forgive myself…""I saw you with Kyla…" I said in a s

"CRESIA?"I was walking on the school grounds of St. Claire when I heard someone call my name. I looked around and then I saw Caren. She was standing a few meters away from me. I smiled at her and her eyes widened as she walked to me."Hi, Caren," I greeted her."It's really you," she said, her face still amazed. "What are you doing here?""I'm bringing lunch to my boyfriend." I replied with a smile. "He works here."I wondered if she'd be shocked if he learned that Lenos was the boyfriend I was talking about."How about you?" I asked her."This is where I study," she answered.

"HERE is a glass of margarita."I said as I placed a glass of cocktail drink in front of Lenos."Wow," he said, looking at the alcohol in front of him and then to me. "You're good at this, baby."I chuckled. "Come on, bottom's up."He grabbed the glass and drank it in one gulp.We were in Polaris tonight. It was still an hour before the opening so I decided to show Lenos how to mix drinks."When did you learn how to mix alcohol?" he asked after he placed the empty glass on the counter."Hmm, I was fifteen, I think."His lips parted and I bit my lips to stop myself fr

"GOOD morning, Dad." I greeted my Dad when I saw him on the breakfast table. He was already having breakfast."Good morning, hija," my father looked at me. "What time did you go home last night?"I pulled up a chair, sat on it and poured orange juice on my glass. "Almost two, I think." I glanced at the breakfast in front of me. I put some pancakes on my plate."I noticed your car isn't in the garage."I pursed my lips. "Lenos took me home last night."His eyebrows rose. "Are you two together already?"I casually nodded while sipping on my orange juice. "Uhuh…""Ma'am Cresia."One of our helpers entered the kitchen with a bouquet of flowers in her hand. She handed it to me. "There's delivery for you."I immediately smiled when I saw it was black roses. I opened the card and saw Lenos' handwritten note for me.Good morning. I'll pick you up before dinner tonight.

"WHAT are you doing here, sis?" Alfred asked me when he saw me standing outside of my door. I smiled. "I'm just trying to sink into myself that one of my dreams finally came true." Alfred smiled at me. "You did it, Cresia." He said, then gently tapped my head. "Thank you," I sincerely said, tearing up. "This wouldn't be possible without you and Dad's help." I told him. Today was the opening night of Polaris. Alfred and my father came with me earlier this morning at the ribbon cutting. They even surprised me with a cake. And now, Alfred was here with some of his friends. Dad just went home earlier because he needed to rest early. "Nah. It was your idea and effort and money. We just supported you on the sideline," Alfred said. "We're proud of you." I chuckled to blink away my tears. "Don't make me cry. Just go back inside with your friends." I jokingly pushed him away. "Melissa was looking for you." I said, talkin

"WELCOME to my room, Aunt Cresia," Leah said as we entered her room. My eyes roamed around the room. She had a very princessy room. It suited her. I smiled when I noticed a portrait painting of her displayed on the wall. "How old are you in this portrait?" I looked at her. She smiled at me. "Oh, I was five there." Leah said as she sat on the edge of her bed. She hugged a unicorn stuffed toy we got on when we went to the theme park. "Thank you for the dinner, Aunt Cresia," she said, yawning. "I feel so sleepy already." She said in a small voice while scrunching her eyes. It was already eight in the evening. After pushing Lenos back to his room earlier this afternoon, Leah and I played board games in the garden. Then I cooked fried chicken for dinner. When I checked Lenos in his room, I still found him sleeping. It was a good thing he was having a long rest. I sat beside Leah. "You should sleep now." I gentl

"THERE'S still a space up here for another couch," Melissa told me while she was showing me around the second floor of the bar. "No," I said as I shook my head. "It's already perfect. I don't want it to be crowded." I wanted the interior of my bar to be chic and yet laid back. I looked around the area. We're almost ninety percent done with the interior of the place. Last week, I already made a deal with all the suppliers. I was also done with hiring people that's going to be my employees. I planned to start their training right after we finished with the interior. I smiled at Melissa. She's done a wonderful job in transforming this old place in just two weeks. My brother Alfred didn't lie when he said she was one heck of an interior designer.

"I HAD so much fun today, Aunt Cresia." Leah said. "I enjoyed the rides, especially the anchor's away."We were already on our way home. It was already nine in the evening. It was almost six when we left the theme park."Yeah. You're full of energy earlier, Leah." I chuckled as I looked at her from the rear view mirror. Leah was a ball of sunshine."And you got so hungry you finished two orders of fried chicken," Lenos said, he also looked at Leah from the mirror."Dad, I just missed eating at Jollibee," Leah answered, her lips in purse. "But now, I feel so full and sleepy." Leah yawned and leaned on the headrest.I looked outside. "Don't worry, my home's only five minutes away." We were already inside

CAN you ask your Dad what time should I leave the house?I typed on my phone before I pressed send. I pursed my lips as I put down the phone on my dresser.Today was the weekend I asked Lenos for a date. I was already dressed. Leah asked me to wear something peach because she said she's gonna do the same. So now, I decided to wear a peach midi dress and white sandals.My hair was tied up in a French bun. We were going to a theme park so I know my hair will get messy.Leah and I…we've been texting each other since the day of her birthday. Not a minute later, I got a reply from her.Daddy said we're going to fetch you.Reall
