Eden's POV

I grew up in a fancy limelight, I was a freelance model at the young age and already endorsing several clothing line in the country, being the only daughter of the most promising prosecutor in the Philippines, everyone pleases me to catch their attention and it made my entire high school life boring, not until I met the most cool guy that recently transferred in our school. I know that I'm the most popular girl in our school and I'm confident that Jester can be mine too in just a one snap of my finger.

Our first encounter didn't go well, I tried to use my charm on him but it didn't work. It's really a tough challenge for me lalo na nang malaman ko that he's been eyeing on Emerald. Sa pagkakaalam ko ay nanliligaw rin sa kaniya si Albie Cuevas, ang basketball team captain ng eskwelahan namin.

What's so special about her? when she's just a mere scholar and came from a poor household?

Months passed by at wala paring nangyayari, naiinip na ako sa kahihintay na mapans

    Eden's POVI bumped into Jester this morning and he confronted me about the parking lot incident. I felt his cold gaze against me. Alam kong hindi mabuti ang ginawa ko. Nobody wants to be fooled, yet ginawa ko parin. I lose my chance to be with him and I bet he doesn't want to see me anymore. I still entered my class kahit 40 minutes late na ako, nauna na kasing pumasok si Jester sa loob ng classroom at nakasunod ako sa kaniya. Ramdam ko ang kakaibang titig na pinupukol ng mga kaklase ko including our teacher. I have a permission to enter class kahit sobrang late na and I can also prolonged my absences since I'm into modelling and my schedules are hectic but I still manage to go to school with the help of my tutor, who always teach me so I can catch up to our lessons somehow. He is Rayden Montefalcon, my intelligent and responsible tutor, not to mention that he is cute. Yes, he is cute and hot! I was intimidated by him at first, but spending almost a year tutoring at me.

    Napabalikwas ng bangon si Jester nang marinig niya ang tunog ng cellphone niya. "F**k! Who the hell called me this early?" he said while his eyes were still closed, he looked at the screen, it shows that mommy Anna is the caller. "Yes Mom, napatawag ka?" He asked crookedly on the other line. "Good morning son, Are you alright? Did you know how worried I was last night? I called Almera because I couldn't reached you, she said you got into trouble in the parking lot at the bar yesterday?" He heaved a deep sigh. Almera is such a pain in the ass! She really can't keep a secret! he hissed in his mind. "Mom, don't worry okay? hindi na po ako bata, Isa pa hindi naman ako ang nag-umpisa ng away, you know that right?" he replied. Even though he has a background in taekwondo, he never used his physical strength to fight anyone unless the opponent start it first, he might be forced to defend himself, because he knew that self - control should always comes before p

    Jester's POV Pangalawang araw ko na dito sa Bukidnon. Maaga akong nagising, alas singko palang ng umaga nang bumangon ako at nagtungo sa banyo para magshower. Hindi parin ako sanay sa pagtira ko dito sa Hacienda. But I had to start making adjustments to survive living in this boring place. Inaaminin ko naman na nababagot ako sa nakakabinging katahimikan dito, Ito rin ang dahilan kaya ayaw kong sumama kina mommy at daddy tuwing uuuwi dito kapag undas para madalaw ang puntod ni Lolo. Hindi ko alintana ang init nang tubig na dumadaloy sa'king katawan habang nagsa - shower. Iniisip ko kung matitiis ko ba ang pagtira rito? Paano nalang ang pausbong kong karera sa larangan ng musika? Tuluyan na kayang ma - disband ang grupo namin? Hell no! I shook my head. Nang matapos magshower ay napagdesisyonan kong tawagan si Saint, agad namang sinagot nito ang tawag ko. "Hello, kamusta bro?" masiglang bati ni Saint. Napabuntong hininga muna ako bago sumagot. " Pare, bad news." tugon ko.

    Jester's POVIt's been my third day here in the province and I already miss my life in Manila. Kasalukuyan kaming kumakain ng breakfast ni Lola sa dining area when she mentioned that she would throw a welcome party to be held here in the mansion, and everyone is invited, meaning all of our friends and relatives and business partners will be present in the event. But what makes me frown is she's talking about a certain girl who used to be my playmate before when I was a kid pero wala akong maalala, as if I'm interested of knowing her! After we had our breakfast, nagpaalam ako kay Lola na puntahan ang eskwelahan kung saan ako mag - aaral sa pasukan."Iho, hindi mo na kailangang personal na mag punta doon, kaibigan ko ang dean ng department mo, I can talk to her to enroll you," masuyong turan ni lola."Lola naman, I can manage po, besides gusto kong maging familiar sa bagong school ko,""Okay, If you insist Iho, magpahatid ka nalang sa driver natin," "No, It's okay la," tugon ko at ng

    Jester's POV As we walked towards the gym, I asked the dean if I could choose a student who can tour me around the entire school. I'm a transferee student so I want to make friends with everyone, most especially to Emerald. "Ma'am, may I ask for a favor? can you make the SSG president tour me inside the school?" I shamelessly asked the dean. "Sure Iho, I can make an announcement for that!" she grinned in reply showing her white teeth. The moment I stepped in front of the stage, all I can hear was the loud squealing and screaming of the crowd, I just simply smile at everyone while my eyes were searching for Emerald. I also found out from the dean that she also belonged to STEM strand. We could've possibly be classmates! Geez! After the school tour, we decided to go to our respective rooms, when Emerald noticed that I kept on following her. I saw her glaring at me as I put a smile on my lips. Ugh!

    Jester's POV "Do you really have to go?" I asked Mera while we were on our way to the airport. We left early at the mansion because her flight is at 6am and the airport is quite far from our place. "Of course J," she replied and smile faintly. I shrugged my shoulder as I looked at her through the rearview mirror. She looked bothered and keep on sighing pero ayaw rin niyang mag-open up sa akin. There must be something wrong with her! Nasa airport na kami at dala-dala niya ang mga bagahe niya. I keep on insisting na ako na ang magdala sa bagahe niya but she keep on refusing. "Mag-iingat ka Mera, I will surely miss you," sabi ko habang binibigyan siya ng mahigpit na yakap. Tumango lang ito at niyakap rin ako, pagkalas ko sa kaniya ay laking gulat ko ng bigla niya akong halikan sa labi, pagkatapos ay walang lingon-likod na naghakbang ito patungo sa entrance ng airport. I was stunned to what she did, I couldn't even move an inch in the place where I stood. Nakatulala

    Chapter15 Almera's POV I was lying on my bed when I heard a noise of a car coming on the entrance of the house. I know it was Jester but I didn't bother on checking up on him. I decided to scroll on my social media account, and I saw a photo circulating online of Jester hugging a certain blonde haired girl, although it was captured side view and I can't see the girl's face clearly but I know that girl must be pretty. I know Jester, he won't be hugging random woman who doesn't look good. According to the post, she was a daughter of a well-known prosecutor of the country. I know Jester doesn't want his name to be involved in the scandal because his dad will get angry about it. I get worried for him, so I rush and barged into his room without knocking. Dahil sa pagmamadali ko ay nakalimutan kong nakasuot lang pala ako ng see through negligee at kitang- kita ang dibdib ko dahil hindi naman ako nagsusuot ng bra tuwing matutulog. When I entered his room, I confronted him on

He has a class today and I want to make sure that he doesn't go to school with empty stomach, may mga tagapag-luto naman dito pero nagpresenta parin akong magluto. I want to serve him! "Seniorita, nakakahiya naman po na kayo ang magluto, samantalang trabaho naman namin ito," said the chef. "No, it's okay, I can cook and I promise I won't burn down the kitchen," I said assuring the chef that I can handle the things here in the kitchen. "Baka po kasi mapapagalitan ako ni Seniorito Jester na pinagluto ko po kayo, eh bisita niya kayo rito," he's still quiet hesitant on me. "I insist, hindi ka mapapagalitan, akong bahala sa'yo," I smiled to him wholeheartedly. I cooked ham, bacon and hotdog. I also made a fresh orange drink because I knew it was Jester's favorite. Naghahanda na ako ng pagkain sa mesa nang may nagsalita sa likuran

I feel lost!Madalas akong malungkot tuwing vacant time ko dahil wala na akong kukulitin, may mga naging kaibigan rin naman ako dito sa school ko pero iba parin kung si Jester ang kasama ko, kaya para hindi ko siya masyadong ma-miss, I loaded myself with school stuff. I was listening to my professor's lecture when I felt dizzy, napahawak ako sa ulo ko. Ang sakit! parang gusto ko nalang iuntog ang ulo ko para maibsan ang sakit, nasobrahan siguro ako sa pagpupuyat dahil sa mga school projects ko. Narinig ko pa si ma'am na may sinasabi, tumayo ako upang mag-excuse but everything turned blurry and I fainted. Nagising ako na nakahiga sa Infirmary bed, hindi na masakit ang ulo ko pero nahihilo parin ako, I felt weak buti nalang at dinala ako dito. Agad akong tumayo nang biglang nagsalita ang school nurse.
