There's really something going on with Jordan. It was strange for him talking like this. He was serious and it was not funny! I was still crying in front of him, asking to tell me everything, to clear what he was saying. I am really confused and I don't want him to avoid me anymore.
"I'm sorry, Amber. I-I am leaving the day after tomorrow for Europe to finish my studies. My parents called me and I can't decline that. At least, if I leave, Blake would be there for you. I know he will protect you as much as I do. I know he would take care of you and I know ever
"House Party tonight, 7 PM at my house!" Brix announced while standing on the chair here in the Cafeteria.We are celebrating their victory as a champion for the Basketball Cup this season. And Blake, their team captain, is the MVP. Of course, I am very proud of him and have watched all his games from the playoffs until finals.A month had passed since Jordan flew to Europe. At first, I was sad and still longing for his presence but as time passes by, I am already used to it. The basketball team, Lily and Carla were there for me. Imagine, from two best friends, now I had one whole family with their presence which I am very thankful for.It was strange but somehow good for me after I passed out in the comfort room because Celestine and her two nut friends did not bug me anymore. Claire, who initiates the trouble, strangely asked for forgiveness. After that, they avoided me. I don't know what happened or
I woke up with sunlight kissing my face. It was so bright to the point of hurting my eyes in lightness. I tried to pull myself upright but I stopped and groaned when my head totally hurt like it was hit by hammer multiple times followed by the pain on my lower parts.I can't remember what happened last night other than I was drunk with a group of girls. I made a f
I was rooted on my stand when Marcus extended his arms, smiling widely at me. My whole body is as cold as ice and my hands were shaking. What a sudden surprise! Goodness, why today?"Amber! I missed you! Surprise!" He exclaimed then gave me an embrace. My heart is pounding so fast that could be heard for a meter away. It might sound exaggerated but that was really
I immediately ended the call when Charie informed me about my parents wanting me to join them for a meal. That would actually be great if I wasn't conscious about this mark in me.Letting my hair flow and wearing a turtleneck shirt is all I can do to hide my secret. Dressing up with what is planned for almost an hour, I tried to feel and appear myself more confident in front of the mirror. Half of my usual shiny long hair flows down under my chest as my red turtleneck dress suits my looks.When I finally finished fixing myself, Charie knocked on the door again. "Ma'am Amber, your parents are looking for you. They said that you must hurry up because someone will be joining your meal."I raised an eyebrow on the mirror while putting my face powder on. "What do you mean of someone joining with us?" I asked, then put the powder back down."Your Mom only informed me to let you dres
"So, aside from Amber being the student body president, how did you both meet? It seems like you already know each other so well," Mom intriguingly asked.I hissed on her question because the arrival was like an interview or a talk show of a celebrity couple. They said that they invited Thunder here for us to know each other. He was like a son to them, they thought. Alright, I see nothing wrong about that either since he's Blake's best friend and our accomplice in every escape."He almost killed me, that's how we met." I deadpanned.My parents' eyes widened in shock about my confession while Thunder crossed his arms over his chest."She was just overreacting Tita, Tito," he answered. I faced him with a flinch eyebrow and tightly pressed lips."I'm not. You forced me to hand that scissor!" I yelled, feeling triggered by what he said.&nbs
"Perfect!" I cheered when I finally placed the human-sized Teddy bear beside my bed. Marcus said that my sister can't sleep without a teddy on her side so I bought her one though I can be her human teddy.With sweat flowing down into my body and messy hair, I rushed into Marcus' room and dragged him here.
I locked myself in my room for the whole day. While they are all busy entertaining Celestine, here I am strolling around every corner of my pink room. I am thinking of bringing back my old room since I expected the wrong sister but I'm tired of fixing it alone."Oh, come on, Amber. Why can't you just go out and set aside your pride?!" I talked to myself in the mir
After our dinner and a few chats with Thunder, I decided to go back to my room. I don't have any business to deal with them anymore. I'd rather spend my time talking with my friends on the phone. I tried to contact Lily but I can't reach her as well as Jordan, they must be busy. I threw my phone on the bed then went to my wardrobe to pick some clothes and changed my dr
Nine months later…Amber was lying in the labor and delivery room wearing the white polkadots hospital dress.
I was feeling deaf and numb as my whole world had stopped. My knees were slowly losing their strength and my chest was squeezed so hard making me feel breathless.My Blake didn't survive because he saved me. He saved me and our child.With a blank mind, I stepped my heel out of nowhere. I don't know where to go, I just did let my feet decide. My tears were streaming down on my cheeks while walking along the hospital halls. This is such a curse! I am a curse!"Hey, Aly. Where are you going?" I shoved Celestine's hand on me. I want to see him so badly. He can't die this time. He can't die this young!"I have to see him, Celestine," I replied without taking a single glance at her until I reached the emergency rooms.I immediately asked the nurse whose sweat was visible on his forehead and was pacing back and forth, assisting some
"Are you alright?" Blake asked, cupping my face while we were both sitting on the green grass of their garden. The loud bangs were gone anymore and the surroundings came back into normal.I nodded at him with my shaking nerves."Sir, are you alright?" Their guard asked. Blake shifted his view at him."Yes, I am. I am always fine when my baby is around," he started, giving me a toothy grin. I smirked at him. "Kindly report the incident here," he continued, to which their guard immediately agreed.I narrowed my eyes at him. "Did you make any trouble for the past weeks?" I inquired, crossing my arms over my chest.He chuckled then gave me a quick smack. "I stayed in the condominium and isolated myself here after to push me away. So, the accusation is denied," he replied.I shrugged my shoulders at him and took my
***"When you're sad, look at my eyes and you'll be happy.""Your eyes are really cute. I am happy already. I think you should also put a shining stud on your ear so that it would match your sparkling eyes.""You want me to?"***"Shit! Blake!" I cussed to myself while holding my head in pain. The constant flashing of episodes makes my head hurt a lot more and more."Ma'am, are you alright? Are we going to the hospital, instead?" The taxi driver asked, meeting my eyes in the rearview mirror. I shook my head at him as a response."No, Kuya. Let's go straight to the address I have given to you." He nodded at me.I hope he was there at his condominium. I want to see him. I want to be with him. He was supposedly the one I should marry and not his best friend. I am such a fool!
After the honest feedback from my sister, I ended up wearing straight-leg jeans and a striped tee-shirt with a pair of flat black sandals then Celestine braided my hair so that I would look blooming and fresh.I said to myself that it's fine if I gained weight but now, I'm taking it back. I'm not happy to see myself like this. I looked so stressed!"Maybe I should start my daily routine exercise, what do you think?" I asked Celestine in the middle of our trip. She was leaning her head on the seat while listening to music from her earphone."Just enter your classes for the whole week and you'll be back into your natural figure," she replied. I raised a brow on her in confusion."What do you mean? Does it even help me?" I asked.She pulled out her earphones and looked at me with a blank face. "I mean… You, as a president, have a lo
Though it's hard for me to wake up this morning, I still did my best to force and convince myself to stay awake. I promised them last night that I will attend my classes today and I'm fulfilling it now.I was in the middle of eating my breakfast in bed when I felt a sudden spinning. I closed my eyes, trying to feel better. Then, I reached for my hot chocolate and took a few sips on it but after a moment, my stomach flips, I am feeling puking once again.I hurriedly jumped off on my bed and ran in the bathroom, positioning myself on the sink, puking out. It's really gross. Food poisoning seriously hit me so bad. Dizzy, I turned on the faucet and gargled water to release the sour taste then washed my face afterwards. Am I really going to school? Could I do it today in this condition? I might puke in the middle of our class. That's a total disgust. I questioned myself and weighed the situation.If
So earlier, we ended up staying all together in my room except for Dad who was at a business meeting. I convinced them to do their own thing for me to rest but they chose to stay in my room for the whole day; staring and watching over me. It was too much for a care. I appreciated that so much. Sometimes, I laughed out of nowhere while looking at them blabbering incessantly.Funny to think that the three of them planned to sue the canteen where I brought the spoiled food. I know they were serious about that so I pleaded them not to and just inform the seller instead to make their food better next time. It would be a misfortune for them if they'd continue filing a case though I'm still alive here."Where's my daughter?" My eyes instantly widened when I heard Dad's loud voice echoing around the house. The arrival of his tone is not worried but mad.I was here in the dining room silently eatin
Almost three weeks have passed and the set up became harder for me. As I can feel that the party is fast approaching and we soon will get married. Lately this week, I am getting sick while thinking about everything. My body got heavy and I felt dizzy. It's really a strange kind of sickness. If I'm not mistaken, it must be anxiety."Amber, wake up. It's already seven, you still have your classes, Honey." I pulled back my comforter to cover my entire body. It was Mom, bugging me this early."Mom, give me an extra minute, please. I'm still feeling drowsy," I mumbled with a groan. I reached for my pillow in my side then covered it to my ears.My eyelids were as heavy as metals preventing me from opening my sense. Even my own body feels heavy. Everything is heavy. I can't get up. It sucks! Another few minutes came and I heard a knock on my door again."Amber, aren't y
The moment I stepped in my foot on the white tiled floor. Everything came back to me. It was there when I felt that my eardrums were broken because of the loud music that welcomed us. I instantly ran back outside the house while covering my ears because I can't bear the noise. It was like the waves of sound travelled in my body inviting all my internal organs to jump making me feel a bit headache and dizzy.Blake laughed at me so hard that time. I told him that I won't get in and would go back home if he'd push me to get inside the house. So, we ended up staying our ass off in the garden together with some basketball players who were drinking alcohol. It was gross when I saw some party goers puking on the side. It caused me to flip my stomach while watching them over. It was gross and hilarious yet memorable.I smiled bitterly then shook my head to get rid of that sudden reminisce. I am training myself to forget him
