The journey back to H City was somehow not what the students expected. The teachers were able to find out how the drinks got I'muggled in and saw that Daniel alongside his friends brought the deal in. It was so annoying and made the teachers angry so they gave them a piece of their mind. No one was laughing or talking. It was a weird atmosphere.

Hera was a bit angry as well because anything could have happened under the influence of alcoholic drinks. She felt a bit irresponsible for not focusing on the students because she believed that they would be able to take care of themselves only for her to get disappointed at the slightest moment. Not to talk about students that were planning their eighteenth birthday for something like that - Ashley was a perfect example.

She could not help thinking about what she did last night as she believed that she wasn't in the right state of mind. She remembered kissing Alex on the cheeks but this morning, when she woke up, she found hersel

    "Detective Brown, I think it's high time you dropped that case. It's not really in need anymore." A cop patted Brown's shoulder as they left the crime scene. He didn't wait for Brown's response before leaving. Brown sighed and licked his dry lips. He looked around the crime scene in front of him. Things were really getting out of hand and was he supposed to turn a blind eye to it? How was that possible? He wasn't brought up that way especially to see the less powerful suffer in silence. Then Brown sighted another man and it seemed as if the solution to his problem had been found. He quickly approved him. "Sire, good day." "Good day, Detective. How was the weekend?" The man asked him. "Well, I spent the weekend working on the case only for your fellow cop who told me to stop working on it. I found it hard to believe because we all know the real truth of how..." The cop stopped walking and placed his hand on Brown's shoulder. "Listen, Detective. The order

    Ashley opened her laptop feeling relieved after the day's work. She was so tired from teaching Alex and also learning on her own. Her Family was downstairs watching the news while she just excused herself to her room. Alex left her house not too long and she felt so fulfilled for helping him out because he seemed to be a little bit lost. He actually answered a few questions correctly and ask many as well which she answered correctly. Ashley made sure not to annoy him or overstep the mark however it has been one hour since he left, and hopefully he might have gotten home. "Ouch. That's enough thinking. There are more episodes to catch on Netflix." She whispered to herself and grabbed her laptop but then her phone which was by her side started ringing and she had no choice but to neglect the laptop for it. The phone call was from a strange number. She was at first hesitant to answer it because, her father being a detective, had warned her to be careful as picking up stra

    "I can't believe that she turned our friendly meeting into a dating site," Sammie said while gritting her teeth. Josh chuckled nervously and collected the knife that she was using to peel her oranges because she wasn't using it anymore and he was scared that the result of that wouldn't be that good. Ahead of them, outside the house, beside the swimming pool, the two friends were watching Alex and Ashley talking. Ashley didn't want to make him feel uncomfortable among them because the latter wasn't used to many fun activities yet. "I mean, if she actually brought him to come and mingle with us...this isn't how to mingle." Sammie sucked the life out of the poor orange furiously. Josh gulped and slowly turned her around. "Let's have something else to discuss, okay? She is finally having a moment with a guy. Don't let us disturb or ruin her precious moments." He suggested. "I really wasn't expecting you to show up but you did anyways." Ashley smiled as she played with

    "Maybe you should come home with some friends. That will be helpful." Jonathan said as he sipped his tea. Alex looked at his shirtless body and simply walked past him. "I am not interested." He answered. "Do you know that if she finally gets to know that you also mean the opposite of what you said, you're a goner?" Jonathan teased him. Alex huffed and threw his backpack across his shoulder before walking out of the house. His brother wouldn't waste any time teasing him around the house. While he didn't like it, Alex wasn't complaining about it. This was the only thing that kept him sane these days. As he was walking to the bus stop, three black cars rode past him in a hurry. He paused in his steps and turned to look at them. Until the cars left his sight, he didn't take a step. "You are not planning to stand there all the days of your life, right?" An aged woman asked, interrupting Alex's thoughts. He then continued walking. ~~~~~~~ Brown crossed over

    "Just leave, I am going to pay you when I have it," Jonathan yelled at the landlord after pushing him out. Alex was coming back from school, his hands were inside his hoodie's pockets and he stopped to watch what was going on with a frown. "The two of you should pay me before the weekends or else, you will be out on the street, begging for a place to stay. Humph!" He stomped his foot against the ground and glared at the siblings before walking away. Jonathan sighed and ran his hand through his hair. This was why he didn't want to rent an apartment with old people. They were always traditional and hard to beat because of RESPECT. He turned around only to get a sight of his brother. His lips parted slightly, unable to say anything as Alex was looking at him dead in the eye with an unexplainable facial reaction so he relented. ~~~~~ "How many months do we owe him?" Alex asked as he took off his shirt. His muscular built body was revealed along with a series of ta

    It's been a few days and Ashley was back on her feet. With the help of her friends, she was able to know how else to run her academics without being left behind even though she was a little bit upset that Alex didn't ask after her. How could he be that cruel? To top it all, he wasn't always around and she felt like trying his brother's phone number but it felt weird to her. Wouldn't that be a disturbance to them? Who was she to start reporting Alex to his brother? It just wouldn't sound right so she let it be and just focused on herself. This morning, Ashley woke as early as she could without waiting for anyone to pressurize her about leaving her bed. She arranged her bed and quickly rushed to the bathroom to brush her teeth. She stood in front of the mirror, happily staring at her neat and cute outfit before applying her minimal makeup and then her favorite orange-scented perfume. She didn't let down her hair today as she wanted to give herself a new look, only if s

  • THE MANIAC SON OF A MAFIA.   24. A RACING HEART.

    The teacher for the next subject was already in the class but because she wasn't ready to teach yet, the Students had free time to still talk among themselves, chit-chatting with their friends on the phone or beside them. The fight that happened yesterday had already spread around the school with different translations as to what could have led to it. While some said that it was because of jealousy, some believed that it was because of a guy but Ashley wasn't known for such. She barely had time to fight with someone else especially a lousy person like Amelia over a guy so this kept pushing them into the realm of doubt as time went by. Ashley was even angry at herself knowing the punishment that she had been given. She was so annoyed that her cheeks were puffed up and every five minutes, she would mumble incoherent words at Amelia for putting her in this insane position. Now she felt dejected that she even stoop so low to her level yesterday. What her parents said yesterday was comin

    "I hate this! I really do hate this! How can the teachers be so unfair?" Ashley yelled inside the empty basketball ball court for a few minutes. Just a few days, Amelia cheated on her and somehow got a piece of evidence to show her accusation. The evidence was a picture of her and Alex with the right words that she was busy being lovey-dovey with him. The teachers around didn't even think twice before excluding her from the punishment, letting Ashley face the consequences of their actions fully. All she did was to help the poor guy and this was what she got for it. Oh...how much she wanted to suck the life out of Amelia. Only if she had some sort of Supernatural power, that dumbass girl would be six feet below the ground with gallons of flowers hanging around her pictures all over the house. "Damn it!" She cursed silently. Something that she would not do normally but her situation had tied her down so much. She finished picking the pieces of paper and prepared to

    Alex closed the door and looked around with a soft look. The breeze blew his hair gently and his eyes were squinted as well as if trying to figure out something due to its view. This was surprising even though he had expected something like this. It was already evening in H City and the atmosphere brought back memories. Unlike ten years ago when this place was so despicable and no one could come here because it was a gangster's home, it was now an abode to many people and life had become better now. Alex could see the cops dragging a teenager with tattoos all over his body down the road. The teenager was trying to escape but with so many cops, his energy was futile. Ashley watched him, carefully observing his facial expressions. She had brought him to H City without his knowledge but he seemed to be taking it quite well. "What are we doing here?" Alex finally landed his eyes on her as his two hands went straight into his pockets to prevent them from getting iced. Good enough

    "What do you think I should do, huh? I don't know if I am reciprocating the feelings back to her?" Alex frowned as he discussed his problem with Jonathan. "But she doesn't seem to mind. She is totally in love with you." "That's not an excuse. I just need to know if I am doing well enough." Alex answered.Jonathan exchanged his leg position and sat down a bit comfortably to the right. "Well...to be truthful, you are far from doing well enough."It felt as if someone had thrown a glass into his mirror, shattering all. Well, he knew what the truth was but having someone affirm it was something he wasn't expecting to hold within. Jonathan could see the sadness wash through his face. His lips curled downwards as a result of his answer. "Okay...you know what? Listen to me. I don't want you to pressure yourself in this short journey that you two would be going on. Ashley totally understands you, this is what I can assure you of so you don't need to rush and you don't nee

  • THE MANIAC SON OF A MAFIA.   80. HEY.

    "I am sorry." These were Alex's first words immediately after he healed up and could speak. Ashley smiled and hugged him gently so as not to cause him any harm. It was their moment and they were taking the most of it. Alex missed her scent, he missed holding her and it was great to have her back. Later on, she held his hand. "I know...I know you're sorry and so am I" "You are not mad at me anymore?" "Why would I? I have told you that I have no reason any more to stay mad at you." She answered. "Does this mean that you still love me?" Alex asked gently, his eyes boring into hers desperately expecting a positive answer. Ashley couldn't meet his gaze and just stared somewhere else, intentionally raising his hopes.When Alex couldn't see her approval, he became slightly disappointed...in himself. "Oh." He muttered. "I must have been thinking too much that you and I..."Ashley silenced him with a kiss and looked into his eyes. "I know we have been apart for

    It's been three weeks since Ashley started coming over to Alex's place all thanks to Valerie. Jenny and her husband also were able to come once in a while. Ariana was not left out as well. Ashley felt more at peace and worked from home instead. She had no trouble with Rhae going anywhere because Jonathan told her that she was going to find absolutely nothing. It was funny how he said that and somehow, she was just glad that they were both on good terms now. Ashley smiled at herself in the mirror as she packed her hair up. She had a great feeling that things were going to be good again and now that this misunderstanding had been clear, she couldn't wait to see Alex's expression whenever he woke up. Would he be happy to see her? Their time together as teenagers wasn't that long but they had impacted each other deeply and it was taking a toll on them even after all these years. She cleaned herself up and walked out of the bathroom only to meet the biggest shock of her life. She almos

  • THE MANIAC SON OF A MAFIA.   78. DON'T YOU WANT TO?

    A MONTH LATER,Ashley had just finished her therapy session with her female therapist. Her phone had been confiscated for a few days now because Ariana feared that things wouldn't improve but her phone was given back to her a day ago. She hadn't been to work as well.Ashley laid on the couch and crossed her legs against each other. She turned on the phone, only to meet a series of text messages inquiring about her health and how things were going. Sammie and Josh were also not excluded. Where they were was a bit far so it denied them the chance of visiting frequently like they would always do when they were still teenagers.So with the little amount of strength in her, she replied to all messages until she got to a particular one that caught her attention. She clicked on it so she could view the entire message. "Hey there, this is Valerie, Alex's sister. If you still want to speak with Alex and also to know where he is, contact me back." This message was sent just a MONTH ago as

    Jonathan was already ushered in and was sitting down with the rest of the family but on the other side. His hands were clasped together with his head bowed. His right leg kept tapping against the ground as he prepared his mind to speak. He suddenly raised his head at once to speak, his eyes were on Ashley who he considered the oppressor. "Valerie told me what happened and I think you know what you have done so there is no need for me to start explaining. I hope your family is also aware this time. We don't need you to keep useless secrets that we would be blamed for again. Who do you think you are?" His tone started rising at the end of his sentence. "Tell me! Who do you think you are to do all this trash? How dare you approach my brother only to insult him and say trash to him, you b*tch...?"Ashley became angered and stood up fiercely. "How dare you call me a b*tch when you and that psycho brother of yours are the real d*ck, huh? Oh...so he ran out of the cafe and went

  • THE MANIAC SON OF A MAFIA.   76. FATAL ACCIDENT?

    Ashley closed the door of the sitting room, looking soaked up and terrible at the same time. Her face was pale and at that point, even though it was deadly cold, it felt as if she was immune to the weather: 's circumstances. She leaned against the door and slid down to the ground which she sat upon, bawling her eyes out. Jenny who woke up due to the sound of the door being unlocked appeared with a knife and her husband behind her as well. She was scared that it was probably a thief or an attacker. Their minds didn't go through to the thought of it being Ashley because she would have called. But they were both stunned at the situation in front of them. "Ashley?" Jenny called in surprise and then looked at her husband. She gave him the knife and quickly approached her sister. When she got to her side, she knelt and touched her wet hair with a little bit of confusion. Her hands kept moving from one part of her body to another, purposely checking for any physical injuries while being

    "Are you sure it's not something that you need my help with?" Philip asked as he looked at the cafe and turned off the car's engine. This was the third time he had brought Ashley over to this place. Was she now obsessed with it that she wouldn't stop coming or there was just another reason for it? "No, thank you. I am fine. You can go home now. We will discuss it tomorrow." Ashley answered with a brief smile and came out of the car with her things. She stood to watch Philip leave first before proceeding.The latter quickly reversed and took the other route. The hand Ashley was waving vigorously halted and her smile was wiped off. She exhaled silently as her eyes ran across the surroundings. She turned to face the cafe.Yeah, she had been coming here for a while with the hope of having a proper conversation with Alex regarding her pending questions. She was so much curious and there was no way she would let this slide but her first attempt in speaking with him landed in failur

    "And this counts as the end of your story, Alyssa," Loius said and kisses his daughter's forehead. Jennie glanced back at them and smiled. She had also been listening to the father-daughter discussion while preparing Alyssa's things for school. Louis was a good reader and his voice was smooth which could make the listener not get tired of listening to him speak multiple times. That was the major score he used in winning her over finally. "Thank you, Daddy." Alyssa chuckled after Louis shook her head playfully. "Get to sleep. You don't want to go to school very late."Alyssa then closed her eyes and Louis stood up. He approached his wife and hugged her from the back. "You got a free concert." "I didn't know reading was now some form of concert." Jennie teased back and Louis bit her earlobe. "Ouch... Louis, stop it." "Should I?" Louis asked, proving to be stubborn. Before Jennie could answer, Alyssa did her the favor. "This is still my room." She mumble
