THE weekend passed by. Now, they were back to being school girls again. And since she met Zero the other day, she can’t get him out of his mind. His words keep on replaying inside her mind.

Afternoon, after class, they both decided to eat in a restaurant—started to tackle things about school and kinds of stuff.

“Dad wants me to study abroad,” said Becca when silence tries to evade them.

Her forehead knitted and put down her spoon and then gazed at her. “But why?”

Becca heaved a deep sigh. “I don’t know. Sometimes, I hate being born rich. I can’t feel any freedom. That’s why when I get a chance, I’m grabbing it—to at least feel that I have that freaking freedom. And now, dad wants me to study abroad just because I need to have a wider knowledge about business.”

Isla shook her head. “He just wants the best for you.”

Becca scoffed and sipped on her glass of juice. “You mean, BEST for them? Mom can’t do anything—well, she can but she’s supporting dad and told me that there’s nothing wrong

She formed a sly smirk on her lips before opening the door.Zero knitted forehead welcomed her eyes.“Good evening, my dear cousin—” her words have been cut off when Zero pushed the door widely and entered.Becca gritted her teeth and closed the door harshly. “You’re being rude, Zero,” she uttered when she caught up.Isla looked at them with her wide eyes and parted lips. She gazed at Becca and then at Zero—she gasped when their eyes meet and immediately diverted her gaze back to the television.Zero smirked and sat on the one-seater sofa, eyes still darted to Isla.“Hands-off with my best friend, you jerk,” Becca asserted and blocked his view. He looked up and frowned slightly. Becca arched her brow, crossing her arms in front of her chest. “What? Don’t imagine things with my best friend, Zero,”

    ISLA felt a little bit nervous upon reading Zero’s message. What does he mean by getting punished? It’s not that she did something that he might like. Does she?She bites the tip of her thumb as she walked back and forth inside her room. When she stopped, she heaved a deep sigh. “Ugh,” she uttered.Why does Zero is doing this to her?She began to walk towards the door and took a peek at the living area, observing to see if Becca was still there. However, the coast was clear.She sighed again and closes the door. She rushed towards her bed and threw herself into it. She clasped her hands together and rests them above her abdomen as she stared at the ceiling.“Does Zero already think of settling down?” she whispered. “Does he try to fall in love with someone else? Did he even experience exerting special feelings on someone else?”She sighed and looked to the side, it was already past nine in the evening. It was 8:45 when Zero left.She turned to the side and rests her face on her palm.

    AT THAT moment, Isla’s heart thumped too fast that she can even overhear it.Zero leaned closer to her and leveled his face on her left ear. She closes her eyes as his breath touches her cheek—it’s warm and refreshing. Damn this, she cursed inside her.“You can’t sleep because you’re waiting for me,” he whispered.And there it goes, her shame exploded.Zero sniffed her hair. “I hate someone who contradicts my opinion,” he whispered.She frowned slightly. “W-What do you mean?”“Earlier, when Becca and I were talking, you jive—”“Come on, Zero. I just stated what’s the best that I know—” she didn’t finish her words when Zero’s index finger pressed to her lips.“Shh… stop reasoning. Now,” he moved away and stared at her; a smirk drawn on his lips. “You have to do whatever I’m gonna say, understood?”She gulped as she met her eyes and nodded like a tamed pet.“Good. Now, on the bed,” he said, eyes tucked to hers while he pointed in the direction of her bed.She nodded again and rushed tow

    HOURS passed and Isla couldn’t sleep. She keeps on changing positions but still, she can’t fall asleep.Is this because she’s been thinking about her scenario with Zero earlier? Or it has something to do with that torture. Damn it, Zero didn’t even plunge deeper inside her—which she wanted the most.How dare he? She thought.“Ugh!” she groaned. She will make sure to get even with that guy. She looked like a hungry pet earlier that wants to be fed, begging to have something to eat, yet Zero didn’t let her.She heaved a deep sigh and knocked the pillow beside her when suddenly a libido rushed into her system.She looked at her naked body and stared at it as if it were a wonderful view. She closes her eyes and sighed again.She did touch one of her breasts and moaned weakly. She rolled down the comforter until it reaches her abdomen and lay her back on the soft bed. She closes her eyes as her two hands rest above her huge tits.Here she goes again, pleasuring herself but when Zero did it

    BLINDED by the sunlight beaming past through the window, Isla slowly opened her eyes. She blinked a couple of times, adjusting her vision. She put her arm above her eyes and moaned as she turned to the other side.“Gosh!” she exclaimed when she saw Becca sitting on the floor, staring at her. She got up immediately. “What are you doing there?” she asked.Becca heaved a sigh. “I’ve been trying to wake you up but you won’t. I then ended up sitting here, waiting for you,” she uttered which makes her brows furrow.“Are you being serious? You almost give me a heart—”“I woke up when I heard a sudden noise—a different one. And I don’t know where it came from.”Isla’s eyes widened and hemmed to clear her throat. “Unfamiliar noise?”“It’s not that unfamiliar. It came from a woman, moaning.”She frowned slightly, trying to act like she doesn’t know anything. “It could be your imagination because you’re good at watching porn—”“Stop!” Becca exclaimed and stood up. She glared at her. “Excuse me,
