2021-07-26 16:28:11CHAPTER 8 - The Danger Ahead
Saturday. The weekend came by fast. Tomorrow is the welcoming party of La Resistencia. Since Yuji and I already agreed to attend it, I must prepare for it. I assume that I have to wear formal clothing because it looks like an exclusive party. I mean, there will be a chauffeur that will get us. There was no address mentioned in the invitation. So, I really don't have any clue where they will bring us. It just adds to my worries. Let's just see what will happen tomorrow.
Last night, Ms. Amanda, our club adviser, reminded us that there will be a club tour to be held today. This will serve as preparation for the upcoming Club Week in our academy. We are set to visit different art galleries and museums and get ideas from the art pieces we will see. This actually makes me excited because I'm really fond of these things.
I have the entire day to distract my thoughts. I won't

The Outlaw CHAPTER 9 - Galleria Inspirato
CHAPTER 9 – Galleria Inspirato The man started swinging the knife in his hand. He’s swinging it real fast and I’d be dead meat if it touches me. The good thing is I managed to avoid all of his attacks. Though that one attack from earlier almost hit my forehead or did it already? I have no time to think about that. I get ready to prepare for an offense. But how should I do it? Aha! An idea came to my mind. I must get rid of that knife first. Everything will go smoothly if that’s out of the picture. To do that, I have to move quickly and aim for perfect timing. Just when he is about to swing the knife to the left side, I immediately blocked it with my right foot. Clang! Great! The force is just enough for it to slip on the man’s hand. He seems quite flustered because of my sudden moves. He was about to pick the time but I kicked it towards Yuji’s direction. I quickly glanced at him then nodded. He picked the knife then kee

CHAPTER 10 - Gold for Gold “Come on guys, time’s over. We still have two more museums to visit,” Ms. Amanda said. They started to head outside. Wait, what shall I do with this painting? This could give me a clue! I just took a photo of it for now. I’ll check it when I go home. I decided not to tell it to Yuji for now. This might just cause another worry for him. Besides, I’m still not sure what this painting is all about. Who knows that a raven with a rose is just a common symbol used by people. After visiting the Galleria Inspirato, we decided to stop by a restaurant to eat lunch. Everyone is really hungry so we ordered real fast. It is just the start of our tour yet I have already run out of energy. There’s too much happening just for this day. I might not understand a thing when we visit the next museums. After almost an hour, we finished our lunch. We are now on the way to our second destination. What was the name of it ag

CHAPTER 13 – More Than One Point Even before I had Ringo Dingo, I had been into a lot of trouble already. There are times that mom would get mad at me because of this. But so far, Ringo Dingo was the biggest thing I’ve been into. Imagine how mad the school authorities will be if they found out that their top-performing students are just paying me to do their academic stuff. If this will also come out of hand, the school’s image would be tarnished. In worst cases, the overall ranking of Adelaide Academy will definitely drop. Upon knowing those possibilities, I still did not stop running Ringo Dingo. Instead, I am working hard to make my business grow. This is the only way I know that will help me in surviving this life. Even my own parents forgot about me. I haven’t heard a thing from them since the day they left me. It’s funny how I still call them ‘parents’ even though they didn’t treat me as their child. I had no one else to run. It has always been myself a

CHAPTER 1 - Ringo DingoI was in the middle of the class when my phone suddenly vibrated. I sneaked it under my table and read the notification shown on the screen. 1 request from client Blue_Berry. Another client, eh? Business is going smoothly these days. I just put back the phone in my bag and will decide later whether to accept the request or not. By the way, I am using two cell phones. One is for personal use and the other one is for business. I am Ysabella Mia Morgan, a Grade 12 student at Adelaide Academy. It is a Catholic school and is well-known all over the country because most of the students here are born with a silver spoon. But I am not like them. I crawled my way up here. Things were light before, though. I do not have to worry about financial stuff or so. Not until my parents decided to have a divorce because they couldn’t afford to live with each other anymore. They have their own families now and I di

CHAPTER 2 – The AllianceRingo Dingo is an application that provides academic service to students. I created this app two years ago to help me with my financial expenses. How does this app work?Basically, a potential client must receive an invitation from me before he/she can download the application and use it. But I just don’t simply accept clients. They have to pass the “screening” first. The screening will test how well-off they are and if they can afford the rates we give.After that, I’ll hand them a contract containing all the rules and conditions when using my services.I am the founder of this app. As my business grows, I can’t cater all the clients anymore that’s why I have three employees under me. Namely: Eunice, Josh, and Samantha.Josh is my classmate while the other two are from different sections. We’ve been working together for a year and a half already. All three of

I wasn’t expecting him to bring up a condition before accepting my offer. I wasn’t prepared for this. But I want to hear him out. Maybe the condition he’s asking for isn’t that hard.“What’s it?” I asked, trying to hide the shock from my face.“I don’t wanna be just your employee. I want to co-run the business with you.”“Are you kidding me?!” Never in my wildest thoughts, I expected the condition to be like this. What the hell is wrong with him?!“I want to earn as much you’re earning,” he calmly said, as if it’s a simple thing.I was dumbfounded

The Outlaw CHAPTER 7 - I Will Live
CHAPTER 7 - I Will Live To live or die? That was the meaning of Vivir o Morir written in the invitation sent to us. I knew from the start that something is off with that invitation as well as the man who gave it to us. They knew our name and even our contact information. They were able to send us a text message. But what I’m afraid of is the fact that they might also know Ringo Dingo. Seriously, who is behind this La Resistencia? I tried searching them on the web with the hope of finding information but I see nothing. There were no articles and photos related to them. It’s as if they aren’t existing in the first place. Because of what happened yesterday, looks like we don’t have a choice but to attend this welcoming ceremony thingy. We still have three days to decide. I’ll talk with Yuji once again. But every time I remember the text message sent to Yuji yesterday, I couldn’t help to get goosebumps.
The Outlaw CHAPTER 6 - La Resistencia
CHAPTER 6 - La Resistencia Wearing a black hoodie and pants, there was Yuji standing exactly outside my apartment. Unknowingly, I rushed downstairs as soon as I saw him outside. “What do you want to tell me?” I asked as soon as I got closer to him. “Samantha confronted me,” he uttered directly looking at my eyes. I tried to break from his gaze, “Samantha? What did she tell you?” Don’t tell me… Seconds have passed yet he still isn’t answering my question. I having anxiety panics because of this deafening silence. I cleared my throat, “What did Samantha tell you?” “It wasn’t true.” “What?” “I never extorted money from others.” For a short while, I felt grateful. I was relieved. Though Yuji wasn’t really the approachable type of person, I still couldn’t see him behaving ruthlessly. But, what if he was lying? What if he’s telling me this just so I wouldn’
The Outlaw CHAPTER 5 - Unwanted
CHAPTER 5 - Unwanted Ever since Samantha told me that thing, I couldn’t help to doubt Yuji. Were those things real? Did he really bully others for money? I don’t know. I don’t have the guts to ask him. I grew even more nervous thinking that this might affect my business. Monday. We are having a History class early this morning. Ugh. It makes me feel so sleepy. Just who the heck decided to put History in the first period?! They should have known that students aren't interested in this kind of stuff first thing in the morning. Much better if we would start the class in some exciting subjects instead. Anyway, I don't have any choice but to attend this. Before the professor ended the class, he gave us a task, “Find a pair and work for the 3rd task in your workbook. You will present it by the next meeting.” Here comes another activity by pair.
