Nervous, trembling hands slowly entwined with each other. There, Martha uncomfortably sat around a big table cluttered by books strongly built by many ancient pages. Under the table, the girl's legs shivered as if they had just been removed from cold water — terrible!Her teary eyes nervously darted from one place to the other, intensely searching for someone. "Why do I always…have to be the one to go…through this? Hanna was…right-t-t, I shouldn't have…done it!" The girl anxiously whispered through her quivering teeth — her lips quivered albeit she continued her search. Her eyes slowly widened when they landed on the figure of someone she had been looking for — David and for that moment her eyes were laid on him, Martha had stopped breathing. She terrifyingly watched as David shuffled in the library, as quiet as he could be — in the direction of Martha whom he saw fidgeting and looking down whenever his eyes landed on hers. It was hell easy to spot Martha for she was the only one who
[STARS IN MY MIND!]The world stopped to him a gentle tone of ecstasy right in the chambers of David's ears — David whose cheeks were painted by glistening pink and red whilst his hands were involuntarily shaking as they clasped the dangling edges of his blazer. Heart! The tiny feet of his heart were stomping on his chest, making demands that were surly heavy for David to meet — so unruly. One; two — the suddenly hyperventilating boy quickly stopped a second away from the doorway of his classroom, there, where he knew that an "Angel" was waiting for him. Not just waiting but expecting his presence anytime soon. So loud like the explosives in a deadly war, his heart throbbed right in the doorway of his ear chambers, making it clear to him that it could not take any more pressure from his inner voice hidden in the depths of his head. The boy could feel both of his legs terribly wobbling in his trousers. He could feel a chilling trail of sweat covering his forehead and the nape of his
[Presentation Day!]——Boisterous! — The whole classroom was buzzing with muffled whispers. Everyone was up from their chairs, and seated on top of their desks while reciting words they had written in their books. There wasn't anxiety but suspense on their faces — everyone knew that soon or later, this day would come. Everyone, including Travis and David, was quietly staring at their books, waiting patiently for the teacher to arrive. "Ready?" Travis suddenly aired shortly after releasing a loud sigh while stretching his arms. David's eyes slowly removed themselves from the book as he silently pressed his lips together while nodding at Travis's question. For some reason, Travis could quickly spotted an unusual emotion wrapped across David's face — it was a worry. The boy frowned upon this encounter for he knew that his neighbour, David, was the top learner in their class and he was good in almost everything — after all, why would he be worried? This was totally new to Travis because
["PRESSURE IS TRYING TO BEHEAD ME! TELL ME, WHAT SHOULD I DO?"]•••Eyes that glowed with curiosity carefully followed every one of the movements made by the leaves of the incredibly tall trees as they enchantingly swirled to the secret rhythms of the wind. Outside, through the window — high up in the perfect azure sky, were fluffy clouds attempting to cuddle off with their mates whilst the afternoon sun unceremoniously threw its golden beams on the buildings as some hid behind the trees, quickly creating mysterious shadows that only thrilled Travis — the boy known to peek at nature and compliment it in secret. Right there in an awkwardly hushed room, Travis sat quietly as he leaned his cheek on his palm albeit his eyes squinted at learners who were hurrying out of the school gates. His forehead frowned at the pace each learner was walking — they were speedily fast, the same pace he'd use when walking to his family's car so it quickly drove him away from this place. "I am not the o

THE READER DESCRITION IS ADVICED, HENCE BEAR WITH ME AS THIS IS ONLY A WORK OF FICTION!] •••CHOI JIYEON!——There, a heavy blanket of twinkling stars carefully stretched out to infinity as the pale crescent moon shone brightly like a silvery claw in the night sky. It was the night that was roughly overwhelmed by huge waves and whistles of the biting wind that mercilessly sent chills to one's body if ever they collided. Cold and dark — and yet, right there in a ridiculously gigantic, luxurious house with thousands and thousands of tiny pulsating blinding lights, is a girl who was quietly standing in front of a big mirror that was beautifully framed by a pattern of small, black flowers. With eyes dark and empty from emotions, Jiyeon followed her reflection on the mirror while she had mysteriously tilted her head to t
"Perfect weather for a cafe tutoring session!" David, whose features were painted by one big smile that stretched across his face, blinding it with sparkling tenderness, murmured. His hands were carefully clasping the arms of his backpack as he shuffled on a hushed lane towards school. David was madly happy — he was whistling a "sweet" song while throwing chuckles under his warm breath. His face was glowing whilst his heart delightedly jingled in the cages of his throat. "What a beautiful dream…! Him and my mother? Sitting together?! Will she…accept him? Mmmm…I think she will, after all, Travis is so…perfect!" The ecstatic boy softly aired through his now trembling teeth — smiling as dreamily and wide as he could. "Yes, he may be a little weird, sometimes too cold as he refuses to let me in but he does it cutely! There's no way she would not accept him." David excitedly grinned albeit shaking his head when he quickly realised that he was diving deep into his thoughts. After a cou
A perfect shape of a jawline sharply protruded to skin that was publically red as David gnashed his teeth, his eyes deadly staring at the ceiling that swirled back at him with nothingness but mockery radiating in its tiny lights. "Martha!? No, it can't be her. I did give her a good scare. She wouldn't dare test my patience again, plus, she doesn't know anything about my past — not that close! Jiyeon? Mmmm…she is a cunning, poisonous and calm snake but…I don't believe it could be her. With a high, flourishing reputation like that, Sean would not want a scandal, I know it for sure!" An agitated David silently hissed to himself — analysing and investigating possible suspects. Last night immediately after he finished speaking with his mom over the phone, David received five more pictures — all of them from two years back when he was dating Sean and not just that, each of them seemed to be taken secretly. "Who could've done it!?" David aired while a frown came between his eyes as his head
"There is no way she says all that just to get Travis's attention. No way! She must know something — everything had my name in it and why…was Kevin acting like that?" David, whose hands were trembling as he clenched his fingers into fists, breathed through his quivering teeth that he had since gnashed with rage. His eyes were menacingly laid on Jiyeon's empty chair. Whatever happened yesterday at the cafeteria did not sit too well with him — no, not at all! Every word that was spat by Jiyeon made his skin burn with indignation, as well as guilt. "But…how would she know? Could Kevin have told her?" The boy whose whole body was shaking with unbearable uneasiness, hissed every word from his trembling mouth. "What…!?" His eyes unexpectedly landed on both Travis and Jiyeon who had sauntered in the classroom seconds after he spoke. The two seemed to have been lost in a deep conversation that sweetly prevented either party from paying attention to their surroundings. Travis was seen smili
