Allysa Chloe HernandezAfter 10 minutes, our Literature professor arrived. Sir Nathan, the class was also more than two hours. Discussions then short quizzes, just like what other professors do in other subjects.After that class it's break time. I told Bea and Kenny that I would go straight to the library to borrow the book that I need before going to the cafeteria. They were already ahead so I told them to reserve a seat for me. When I told Ma'am Annie the book I needed, she immediately directed me where to find it. It is located on the bookshelves at the end. After I got the book and said goodbye to Ma'am Annie, I walked to the cafeteria.When I got inside the cafeteria, I immediately looked for my two friends. Since a lot of students were already there, I had a hard time finding them. After a while I heard a voice calling me. I'm sure it's Kenny's voice."Allysa, here we are."He said. I looked where the voice came from. I immediately saw them and went to them. When I sat down, I
Allysa Chloe Hernandez"So, what are we going to talk about?"I said to Dave Arkiel when we sat inside De Lara's cafè."Let's order first. What do you want?"He asked me."I'm fine with Cafe Latte.""Okay. Just wait for 5 minutes."Then he stood up and went to the café counter.I remained seated while browsing my friends' i* stories.After a while, Dave Arkiel arrived carrying two cups. He sat down then handed me a cup of Cafe Latte."Thanks."I smiled at him."I heard that our engagement party will be held this coming summer. Any plans on how we can stop it?"He started.I was surprised when he said that."What? This coming summer? How did you know? I mean my parents haven't told me this yet. So what are we going to do?"I was confused."Relax, relax okay. We still have three months to make a plan.""Three months? Do you think we can do that? It's a pest life oh. Why do I need to marry you? I know it will happen but I never expected this to be early.""Relax okay, we can find a way Al
Allysa Chloe HernandezThe next day"Hey, you're different. Reading a book upside down."I was surprised when Kenny spoke.I immediately looked at the book I was holding. It's the other way around. It's annoying because there's a lot of things in my mind. When there is a problem at home, I should leave it at home and not bring it to school. I keep looking stupid, fortunately only my best friends see my stupidity."I'm sorry. I didn't notice."I apologize to them. I need to act normal. It's like nothing happened. Maybe because what else do they think?"Didn't notice? Come on, Allysa Chloe what's the problem? You've been a fool for a while now and you seem out of your mind. Maybe you want to share something, we are here to listen?"Bea asked me.Maybe this is the perfect time for me to share with them what happened last night."You know, in the beginning, I used to laugh at the movies and romance novels that have a fixed marriage thing and then have a happy ending. It's so impossible,
Allysa Chloe HernandezThank you♥️That's the caption of my ig story. That's a selfie of me smiling while eating the ice cream that Liam bought for me when we are in the park.This day is one of the unforgettable days that I wish would happen again. Because I was really happy earlier. Even for a moment I forgot my problems. I put down my cell phone and went straight to the shower to take a half bath. While showering, I couldn't stop smiling. Liam's simple gestures earlier really makes me excited. How he could talk to Mang Bert earlier was full of respect. I mean he's different. It's rare for a man to talk like that. After I showered, I went out and changed into my pajamas. When I looked at my cell phone, many people replied to my ig story and Kent Liam was one of them.Kent LiamSent from ig.Seen 9:30 pmThank you earlier. I was happy to be with you.He replied to me. His reply was very well-typed. I smiled again. This man is really different.I reacted with a heart emoji with this
Allysa Chloe HernandezAfter we ate dessert and rested for a while we walked out of the restaurant.Dave Arkiel booked a taxi for Kenny and Bea. He sent them first because he said we still need to talk. The two didn't want to leave me but I said I was okay so they agreed. It's almost night and Bea might get scolded by her parents who are still strict.While in the parking area I thought of calling my Mom. I excused myself to Dave Arkiel for a while and walked a little along the side. I just wanted to let her know where I was so she wouldn't worry. Fortunately, she answered immediately."Hi mom, I just want to say that I'll be home a little late later. I'm with Dave Arkiel. We're just going somewhere. Can you tell daddy too in case he asks where I am?"
Allysa Chloe HernandezSaturday at 1pm. Kenny and Bea visited me at home. I was lying in my bed when they came and entered my room. After entering inside, I immediately asked them. The timing was wrong, I was thinking about something and then someone suddenly knocked. What's wrong with these people?"What are you doing here?"I opened a door for them as they sat on the couch on the side."We missed you, why is there something wrong?"Kenny answered. I miss it like it was just one day when we were together."Don't fool me. Why?"I hate them."Kyla is inviting us to her birthday party later a
Allysa Chloe HernandezAfter arriving home, I found my Mom and Dad in the living room. I immediately approached them and gave them a kiss on the cheek. My two friends did the same.My parents already know my best friends because we've been friends since grade school until now we're in college. We treat them like our family because they are not different from us."Where have you been, my daughter? We've been waiting for you for a while. I've been calling you before but you didn't answer."My mom asked worriedly."I'm sorry Mom, we were just at the cafe earlier. We were talking about school stuff so maybe I didn't notice you calling, right girls?"I asked my friends who immediately
Allysa Chloe HernandezAfter three months.Time passed quickly. Three months have already passed. It seems like I've been really stubborn with my parents for the upcoming engagement party, but I didn't know that Dave Arkiel and I would actually make it. I tried many ways to prevent the engagement party from happening but in the end I still couldn't do anything. It even got to the point that I ran away from our own home so that the discussed marriage wouldn't go through, but in the end nothing happened. My Mom and Dad are right, I can't take care of myself yet. I can't do anything without them by my side.The engagement party will take place tomorrow. Many guests were invited, especially the people who were business partners of the two families. I know from the start that the upcoming engagement party is for the convenience of the two families. Dave Arkiel and I have talked about this. We just have to be good at pretending otherwise we're both doomed. We never agreed to this idea. So w
Allysa Chloe HernandezWhen I got home, I immediately went up to the room to get dressed. It's Monday and I have a lot of school work to finish so I thought I'd have a snack before starting my work.I just ate cookies and drank pineapple juice. Then I went up to the room again. I have started doing school work. I don't know what else to feel. Yesterday I felt like I liked Dave Arkiel, and the next day Kent Liam. Maybe it's because of the actions they show me. I can get attached to someone very quickly. That's the thing I hate the most about myself.While I was taking down notes, Kenny called. What else is this gossip of my friend carrying?"Hey girl, we have a problem."He said on the other line when I answered his call."What's the problem?"I asked him. Maybe it was just a prank later."It's because our Camp will take place next week. The date has been adjusted because of our school's next event. The Camp is said to be moving next week."I was surprised when he said that. I haven't
Allysa Chloe HernandezThe days passed quickly and Monday arrived- the day I was waiting for the most. Because apart from getting the book from Kent Liam, I will also see him.I was just about to enter the university and I was like a teenager who was excited to see his crush. Liam said that I should go to the Engineering Building at lunch time because he was sure that he would not leave during lunch time. He also asked me on ig what floor and room number, the only thing I really have to do is go there. I'm going to bring Bea with me, so it won't be too embarrassing.When I arrived at the university, I immediately went straight to Business Ad. building. While our prof. Discussing our topic in Salesmanship. I was really bored. I want time to speed up so I can go to my crush right away. I can't wait to see him.After class, at lunch time, I quickly pulled Bea out of the room. Kenny left because he wanted to go straight to the cafeteria. Maybe he is hungry. We immediately boarded the elev
Allysa Chloe HernandezWhen I got to the park, I went to my favorite place and sat on the seat there.I like seeing Kent Liam again, like the day before. I don't know but I feel comfortable with him, I'm not shy, annoyed or nervous. It's not like when Dave Arkiel is with me.While I was sitting and reading a book I bought at the bookstore earlier, I noticed the man Kent Liam and I bought ice cream from a while ago passed by. It stopped at the side because there was a mother and daughter who wanted to buy it, so I also approached."Manong, just one piece for the 20 pesos each ice cream in a cup, just the cheese."I said to the ice cream seller.When he handed the ice cream to me, he smiled. Then spoke. Maybe he remembers me."You were the one with Kent Liam last time, right? I'm Mang Bert.""Ah yes, it's me."I said with a smile because he seemed kind and approachable"Yes, I remember you. Are you his girlfriend, hija?"This is a curious question to me."No, I just know him. He’s my sc
Allysa Chloe HernandezI went straight to the shower as soon as I got to my room. What are they thinking? That we are really in love with each other? Hays. It's annoying, what the hell did I get into this? If my Dad doesn't get really angry, I will never do this. As in never. After I showered, I got dressed and went downstairs. I found Dave Arkiel sitting on the couch still holding the red envelope his parents gave him."Where are you going?"He asked me when he noticed that I came down."At the bookstore."I answered him sparingly."I'll come with you. I'll just get dressed for a moment."Then he quickly went to his room. He didn't even wait for me to answer if I would agree to accompany him. This man has a decision to make.He doesn’t need to come with me. I mean I can go all by myself. After a while he also came down. He’s wearing a white khaki shorts, a black shirt and white sneakers."So let's go?"He asked me.I nodded in response and we left the house together.When we got in
Allysa Chloe Hernandez"What do you think you're doing?"I was surprised to say to Dave Arkiel when I saw him fixing the bed where I would sleep.He was also surprised to see me and suddenly turned his back on me. My ghad I forgot I was wearing a bathrobe when I came out of the bathroom.I quickly entered the bathroom and slammed the door. It's embarrassing, why is he here?I came out wearing my pajamas. I put my hair back because I'm going to blow dry my hair later."What are you doing here?"I asked him, annoyed."What else can I sleep here?"He answered me while sitting on the couch in the room."You're going to sleep here? I'll just go to the guest room."I answered him, then I took my suitcase and started to go out the door."Wait, what are you thinking? We'll both sleep here."He explained it to me.I faced him and spoke."What else are you talking about? FYI Mr. Enriquez, it doesn't mean that I agree to marry you, you can do what you want. And one more thing, don't interfere wi
Allysa Chloe HernandezThe next dayI woke up early because the event organizers who were hired by my Mom and Dad came to our home early. Those are the friends of my brother, they are already making noise downstairs at 6 am, obviously they are even more excited than me. So even if I want to sleep more, I can't because I'm sure my Mom and my Daddy will definitely scold me.I don't want to start the day with a misunderstanding.After I showered, I got dressed and went downstairs. I came into the dining area and I found them happily talking, I'm sure their topic was me again. Well, who else that they are talking about? I'm the only one who has a special celebration? Hayyysst, is that special? I'm just now thinking that it might turn into a nightmare in life."There she is."My Aunt Amelia smiled when she saw me. By the way, she's my favorite auntie. She was sad to know about my engagement party today because she didn't expect it to happen sooner. But we have no choice because my parents
