LOGINWhen Camille moved into Summer Valley with her mother, she decided to keep things on a low since it would only be a matter of time before they moved again whenever her mother’s past would come to haunt them. This plan completely crumbles when she falls into the bad side of Aiden, the mysterious and dangerous boy at her school. He begins to target her and make her the butt of his bullying. One school day changes everything, when she gives him a sign without knowing and she gets into an entanglement she never expected, but can’t seem to want to get out of. What happens when she gets to find out the real boy beyond the indifferent mask? Will he let her in, or will he push her away like he does everyone else? How will she cope when the people she trusts betray her? What happens when trouble returns and her mother wants them to move out from the town, just when she has finally found home?

"sa maynila pala siya magpapatuloy ng pagaaral..."malungkot na sabi ng isip niya.Kali: I could barely pay attention in class. All I pull think of was Aiden behind me, who had not only threatened me the day before and ignored me after, but apparently also lived just a floor below mine. Had he been staring at me that morning because he was just figuring out that I lived in the building or was he figuring out how to carry out his plans of k*lling me? Maybe I was running crazy. Why was I even taking any of this to heart? I had more serious things to worry about than some wannabe rascal who had probably even forgotten his threats now. My hopes were dashed when I felt a kick at the back of my chair. It was too aggressive to have been a mistake. My heart started to beat. Was he going to bully me right there while the class was going on? In front of the teacher? I pretended not to have felt it, but there was yet another kick, this time louder. I turned slowly to look at him and he just cocked his head at me, with a face void of expression. I couldn’t tell if h
Kali: The knock came right away. “I already told you before. Don’t walk out on me,” she snapped, knocking wildly, trying to assert some semblance of dominance. It was too late though. She was like my annoying older housemate and not my mom. I took off my clothes, not bothering with her. “I’m so tired mom. Can we continue this tomorrow?” I asked back. My head was pounding, but my major irritation wasn’t from my mom who was outside. It was from the fact that my room was such a mess because I’d skimmed through every single outfit I’d ever owned to find this one. I wondered how I was even going to manage for the rest of the year. That is, if I managed to stay that long. “You’re so disrespectful you know that right?” My mom asked. I knew she’d given up. “Sorry mommy,” I said in a singsong voice and heard her humph before thumping away. *** I woke up at exactly 6:30 am the following morning. Just like the day before, I started to dress up very meticulously, ta
Kali: The house was unusually quiet when I got in. My mom and sister were probably asleep. I sighed in relief, not ready to meet anyone, even my younger sister. I was still overwhelmed from everything that had happened in school that day and I certainly didn’t want to talk about it. As I tiptoed into the house, all my hopes of avoiding being seen were dashed when my mom appeared at the door of the kitchen, looking down at me with a fake worried look. I immediately straightened my legs, hoping she hadn’t seen me tiptoe. “How’s my little rebellious daughter doing?” She asked, coming forward to give me a hug. I patted her back, the smell of curry and all the spices she’d used to cook which was strong on her apron flooding my nostrils. “I missed you. We both missed you. Now,” she said, dragging me to the dining room. “Tell me all about your day. Make any new friends? Meet any new boys at school?” She winked. I rolled my eyes. “My day was quite uneventful unfortunately. I jus
Kali: “Bel, is it?” Aiden asked, looking directly at the prettiest blond among us. “Yes,” she said in a voice that sounded as if she would start crying. She was looking up at him like a crazed fan, whose idol had called her name. “Are you coming?” He asked. “Sure,” she said, visibly swallowing. “Let me just get my…” Before she was done talking, he had already turned back on us and was walking away. The millions of questions I had about what had just happened, were completely silenced by the sound of the girls giggling excitedly and looking up at Bel like she had just won a rite of passage. “Wish me luck,” she said, taking her bag and leaving. The cafeteria soon went back to normal after he left, with everyone talking among themselves, no doubt about the guy who had just walked in and walked out for absolutely no reason. “I can’t believe it’s her,” Lenora squealed. “I always knew it would be,” Tricia said, although her own smile seemed a little forced. “W
Kali: “For a second there, I was worried you were going to choose to stay with that voodoo girl,” Tricia said once we were all sitting at their table. “That would literally mean social suicide for you. See her sitting all alone. Don’t you wonder why she doesn’t have friends?” “How would she have
I swallowed. Once then twice. What had I been thinking? All my plans of being low key on my first day were gone now simply because I didn’t just do as I was told. Eons seemed to pass as Aiden’s unwavering glare held me captive, making my heart beat loudly in my chest as I tried but failed t
Kali: I woke up the next morning by four o’clock and it was terrible. That meant I had more hours to think about how sad my life was. It was going to be my first day in high school and to say I was nervous would be a huge understatement. It was scary to even think about transcending to high sc
Kali: We were moving again. For the third time in two years, I had to leave my school, the friends I had barely made and the life I had just begun to get accustomed to, because of one person. Growing up, moving never meant anything to me. As a clumsy child, I had naively believed it was nat
