EUN-WOOI tried to focus on the mobile game that Woo-hyun and I have been playing for about a few hours already. I feel so sleepy now since the game is tiring my eyes. "YES!!!" Woo-hyun cheered happily as he finally won the game for the fifth time. He's been complaining about not winning against me and even begged me to go easy on him.What a jerk."Ah. It feels great to finally win against the mighty Lee Eun-woo!" He said happily."I can't believe you're so happy about that," I commented to him."Are you sad that you lost the final round?" He started to tease me."No. It's because I won the first four rounds," I boasted."Yah! We agreed that those rounds are all invalid. The last round will be the one considered!""Whatever." I ignored him as I got up from the bed and kept my phone hidden inside my pocket.I got out of the room to get some fresh air and coincidentally found Mizuki together with Ji-hoon. They are actually walking around like the others.I'm battling with my thoughts

He saved me.And for sure... he would blame me again for what happened to him!Ever since Eun-woo was hospitalized, we decided to keep it a secret or more of not just telling our parents about what happened because they'll panic.

High-ranked senior year students in each course were assigned to pass what they say is a "heritage course oath" to junior year students who will later become the new senior year students.High-ranked students from junior year did the same and passed the heritage course oath to sophomore year students, while high-ranked students from sophomore year will be passing theirs to freshman year.Later on, our professor in performing arts approached the row where I am sitting and spoke to me."Su-min, can you do the honors of receiving the heritage course oath from the senior leader?"Since I didn't know what to do, I looked at my friend Mina."You can do it, you will just repeat after them," she told me.Gosh, that's not what I'm looking for as an answer!I looked at the professor.

It was a young man and he was wearing a black jacket and black cap, his head turned down and he was in the middle of playing something between his fingers, the reason he didn't even raise his head up."Here's the menu. I'll be taking up your order, sir."I gave him the small menu of the coffeeshop and he took it without even raising his head. He seemed like he was uninterested in looking at me.And because I am just a waitress, I didn't mind it. I placed the small glass on the table and poured some water on it and waited half a minute until the man pointed out the cappuccino from the menu."This," he said."Alright. Your order will be up for three minutes."I picked up the menu and walked away from him to start preparing his order."Wow, Isla. Your Korean is improving," the manager praised me.I smiled at

ISLA “Have the will to let go of the life planned from the past and prepare for the life that is waiting in the future…” INCHEON, REPUBLIC OF SOUTH KOREA5:30 P.M. I took my luggage together with my travel bag from the baggage-claim area at the arrivals level before continuing to walk. I looked at my phone to see the time and I still had an hour and a half left before I could reach downtown Seoul. And without further ado, I quickly walked out of the Incheon International Airport. The day before my arrival, I was told by my mom that I might need to ride a taxi going to this hotel in Seoul. But, you must be wondering why I arrived alone in this country? It’s because my mom was engaged to a South Korean businessman, Mr. Woo-jin Lee. He’s not just a plain and simple businessman. He is the founder of the famous Seoul Arts and Design Institute – a university focusing on art courses. He is also the owner of Grand Publishing, the company reserved f

ISLA“The purpose of our activities on earth must go beyond bread and butter or merely surviving.…”ONE YEAR AGOMy mom and I were in the living room of our home. And I couldn't help but wonder why she suddenly brought a man who is not just any ordinary man. I was sitting across from him while my mom was sitting right next to me on the sofa. We were all silently observing one another."Isla, baby…" I heard my mom speak to me so I looked at her. She looked so serious right now. "This is Mr. Woo-jin Lee. He's my boss from the Philippines branch of the company called Grand Publishing."I know that company. I mean, they produce both online pay-to-read novels and traditional published novels under the name of Grand Books. They're everywhere and very famous amongst teenagers.I looked at the man as he started talking to me in courtesy. "It's nice to finally meet you, Isla. Forgive me for suddenly coming here to your home.

ISLA"I am a chaotic angel and you are a peaceful devil…"ONE MONTH AGOI've been really distracted lately with my studies after I finally agreed to come to my mom's wedding next month. I didn't dislike the idea of coming to South Korea just to attend her wedding, but she even told me to think about transferring there to continue studying my course."You can continue studying your chosen course in SADI," she said."SADI?" I asked cluelessly. "Are you talking about the top-ranked international university in Seoul?""Yes. If you attend there, your future will surely be secured," she continued. "Think about it."I turned around to look at her while I'm still sitting on the office chair. "I'm pretty sure that you know how much their tuition fee is…"My mom remained silent while staring at me. Is she being serious?"SADI's tuition fee for international students costs about $4,500 which is almost 240,000 in Philippine peso. I don't think we can aff

ISLADuring the bonfire, we were all gathered in the open area. Taek-woon is the one who is cooking the samgyetang while Eun-woo helps him grill the pork belly.While waiting for the dishes to be cooked, some of the students decided to play games so that they won't get bored. And since I'm not fond of playing games, I decided to help out with the cooking.I approached Eun-woo and as soon as he saw me, he reached out the tong he was holding with a piece of meat in between."Ah," he ordered me as he opened his mouth.I did what he instructed me to and got a small bite of the newly grilled pork belly."How is it?" He asked."Aside from it's hot, it's tasty." I continued to chew."That's a relief," he sighed and proceeded to grill.I looked around to observe what everyone was doing and caught a glimpse of Na-bi talking with Su-bin. Actually, it was the other way around."Do you still have feelings for him?" I looked at him and he wasn't even looking at me when he asked that question.I si

ISLAThe truth or dare game proceeded and I was relentless the whole time it was played, the reason I remained silent unless they decided to call my name."Wow…" Everyone reacted as they heard Eun-woo's response. I've never felt so scared and nervous in my life except right now. The way he looked at me as he said all those words in response felt like I was hanging on the edge of a cliff, ready to fall."That was so bold of you, Lee Eun-woo," Woo-hyun told him. "I think I know the next question that must be given to you.""Don't even think about it," Eun-woo responded to him carelessly."Alright," Taek-woon said. "Eun-woo, it's your turn to ask the question to the next player."He spun the virtual wheel and it landed on Mizuki. Almost everyone felt nervous and cautious because of these two people's history.And… I just hope none of them talk about Chereen.The tension between the two was clearly seen and felt inside the bus before Eun-woo could even start asking him a question."Mizuk

ISLAAfter the revelation Ji-hoon made, he gave everyone a memo as a warning for disobeying the good conduct in the premise of the university, whether we are both inside or out of the campus.Then, he asked me and Su-bin to stay so as to speak with us about what was going on."Moon Su-bin.” Ji-hoon got up from his seat and went in front of the desk to talk to us very seriously. “I should’ve known that your motive was to hurt Isla after hearing the news about your courtship.”Su-bin shook his head. “That’s not true. You got it all wrong. I-I didn't want this to happen.”"Do you know what I don’t understand? The fact that you guys are so mad at him for choosing me more than Isla who wasn’t even part of his life for a long time. Are they really even in love with each other?" Na-bi questioned irritatedly."If Su-bin is in love with you, how come he wasted his time courting Isla?" Lav asked her.Na-bi smirked as she glanced at her manicured fingernails.

ISLAI slowly opened my eyes and suddenly felt my head ache. Then, I immediately looked at Eun-woo who was lying next to me on the same bed.Well, he was facing the other way. I quickly got up from the bed as soon as I recalled what happened between us yesterday night.Eun-woo kissed me twice. The first one was more like a peck like he was looking at me and waiting for my reaction. And when he saw that I remained still, he proceeded to kiss me again as he laid me down on the bed.I felt the time slow down when his lips met mine and as the flutter intensified. My heart pounded in my chest as I felt my knees get weaker. I could only focus on how soft-aggressive he felt against my mouth, how Eun-woo invaded all my senses.It felt magical.There was raw emotion in the way his fingers curled around mine, so I decided to keep my eyes half open, sneaking a peek at him every time we came back for air. I can't believe I'm experiencing this for the first time.Eun-woo suddenly draped both of hi
