Time seems to fly fast. A year has passed after they were both kicked out of the university. When the people living in the apartment, Pearl Haven, heard the news about Chad being the professor and the manager of the apartment, some of them didn't mind, and some moved out. The news spread fast in the city to the point that they must lower the unit prices to attract more people. Although they moved already past that, and now they are making more income than ever when people saw how much they had changed their apartment, and there's no issue with Chad being the manager.

They matured more, particularly Ethan, who has learned how to save financially. He's also trying to get new ideas to improve more of the apartment. It looked so expensive, but the price was just affordable, and that's what they are after because they knew that's what people want. He didn't get to finish what he came here in the first place, but he's thankful for Chad and Yohan for helping and staying by his side.

    Ethan picked up the toys that were scattered on the floor. He put those toys one by one onto the treasure box. As he picked up the last toy, he stumbled upon the Christmas gift, and he placed it back again where it should be. He stood up straight, touching the Christmas tree with his hands. It's that time of the year again, and every time this holiday comes, sadness seeps in. The nostalgic feeling always comes back because this is the time where he and Chad end things.And here he is after seven years have passed, still carrying the feeling that happened on that day. He still remembered it clearly up to this day, letting himself take a trip down memory lane."…maybe we can even marry each other!" Rebecca said as Ethan remembered clearly. That's when he realized that when things go smoothly and perfectly, something will always ruin that moment.When he looked at Chad at that time, he just smiled, like it was nothing. Like they were just friends and roommat

    Ethan Ring hurriedly steps off of his car after he parked it in the lot. He already purchased a condominium unit right after he decided to live in the city. He looked around and sighs. It's a good type of sigh. He's been excited and looking forward to this for the past months. He had also purchase kitchen sets, sofa sets, and bedroom sets for his condominium. He's wealthy! As he walked inside the building, holding the keys into his unit, he entered an elevator and pushed the button for the elevator door to close. He looked at himself in the reflection in the elevator, and he smiled to himself. This is really the start for me,Ethan thought. As he's near his unit, located on the 15th floor, the elevator stopped and opened on the 12th. There's a boy, or rather, a man entering the elevator who dresses well and looks handsomely. The man smiled at Ethan, and he did not. The elevator closed again and opened up when it is alre

    Ethan Ring rushed through many people to finally reach the Building of Crease, where the orientation will be held. "Excuse me," he said while making his way into the crowd and finally entering the hall as he opened the door. The big wooden door creaked, and some have turned into him, and some do not care.He took the empty seat nearer by the door and put his bag into his lap."And as we go on with this academic school year, I am hoping that everybody will have a great time enjoying your years and learn as well. We all have different paths to take, and it is not guaranteed for you, students, to reach your dreams in the same time frame. But remember, all you got to think about is you and your success," the Head of the College said, ending his speech."It's done?" Ethan asked. "Or is it just the introduction?""This is just the introductory. We will be having more activities later for us to get to know one another," said the man besid

    He dropped his bag on the sofa as he arrived at his penthouse. He brushed his hair with his fingers due to the stress that he was feeling. He went to the kitchen, picked up a cup, filled it up with ice cubes and water, and drank it. Then he made his way into the restroom, picked up his toothbrush, and brushed his teeth. His lips included thoroughly.Then he put his toothbrush down, put it back into the container, and gargled water.He looked himself in the mirror and said, "that was disgusting."Then he proceeded to go back into the kitchen and brought food and drinks into his living room which is only next to the kitchen. He moved his bag, sat down, grabbed the remote, and turned on the television. As he put down the remote and opened a bag of chips, he said, "that was embarrassing."A text message popped up. It was Mom.Hi, honey. How was the first day of school?He replied.It

    The next hours were quiet. The professor has just discussed the introduction and the course outline of the subject. Then it ended."I guess I'll see you next week, then," the professor said.Ethan hurriedly picked up his bag and exited the class."Hey, wait for me," Chrystyn said while running after Ethan. "So, you really did kiss the guy, huh? Troye was it?""I did not kiss him, okay? It was an accident.""Well, what made it into an accident? I mean, what's the reason?""It's a game of concentration. You need to concentrate for the apple not to fall," said Ethan while they were entering the elevator to go into their next class."And then?" Chrystyn asked while she pushed button 1."And then, I was looking at someone, and I lost concentration.""Well, maybe you lost concentration because it was love at first sight," Chrystyn said, and then she added, "Was she pretty?"

    It's Sunday.Ethan has long thought about what he witnessed during the past few days about Troye, but he let it passed. There's no harm done, he thought.He went into the bookstore yesterday to buy some books and to stock up his shelves with them. He chose random books on the random genres. He's just filling up the shelves.He swam right into the corner of the pool where the end is much elevated than the rest of the surface, with a table-mounted on the wall, allowing him to sit on it and look through the windowpane and appreciate the beauty of the city.He grabbed the cup of coffee he prepared for himself, took a sip, placed it back on the table, and grabbed the book, carefully, for it not to wet with the water."Romance," he said under his breath. Shuffling through the pages to let himself see through the events and look forward to it.Then, he began reading The Tale of Men.Hours passed he felt

    "Well, that was good!" Chrystyn whispered as the professor has arrived. "I would say that was the best revenge that I've heard, and I did not expect that."Ethan's sweat is visible. Some are dripping down on his neck, coming from his forehead.Chrystyn whispered, "Wipe that sweat. People can see through your nervousness." And Ethan did wipe it.The professor started his discussion. It was boring as usual.Ethan excused himself and went to the nearest restroom. Little did he know, Troye followed.He entered the cubicle, and as he was just supposed to close it, it opened."What are you doing?!" Ethan asked angrily.Troye locked the cubicle."Get out, or someone will see us. My reputation is nothing. But how about yours?" Ethan said."Oh, are you concern about my reputation now? After what you said earlier?""Oh, so you are angry now? After you and your friends te

    A couple of weeks passed after that.Troye is coming down from his bedroom. It's a holiday, and so there are no classes. He's still in his pajamas, and he yawned. He prepared a coffee, scrambled some eggs, and toasted some bread. He brought it to the kitchen table, grabbed one chair, and ate.The view of the city is what he sees each morning and each night, and it never fails to amaze him. He stared at it, thinking how lucky he was to have this life. Well, my life's almost completely perfect if I hadn't just bumped into Troye on the first day, he thought.He grabbed his back from one of the chairs and pulled out his notebooks and books. It's a holiday, but he's got a lot to do.He brings out his pen, his calculator, and his paper pads. He sighed. There is just so much to do, and I am overload.As he reaches for more things, he reaches his shoes and says, "You're my favorite sneakers, but you bring bad memor

    He opened the door to the unit. Chad greeted him with a smile only to see him deep in thoughts. Chad greeted him and said, "How was it?""It was bad," he said as he walked towards the living room and let himself fall on the couch, "It was very bad, Chad."Chad walked up to him and caressed his face. He is getting tear-eyed at this moment because when everything is getting too perfect, something and someone will always come to ruin that. He wanted someone to blame but couldn't bring himself to blame others but himself for being so vulnerable and easily deceived."Don't you think we should stop it now?" asked Ethan; a tear fell from his eye. He saw Chad stunned hearing what he said. "Dianna took pictures of us, and Mellow, you know her, she took that camera and run away with it, and maybe now she's already uploading it. It doesn't matter for me now because my parents aren't here anymore and that I have my apartment, I can live with that. How about you? You are a p

    Ethan woke up holding his head and groaned and massaging his temple. He had a blurry memory of what happened yesterday. Chad’s usually on the bed next to him when he wakes up in the morning, but he wasn’t there this time. He heard someone inside the bathroom, showering. It must be Chad.He put his other hand on the bed for support as he continued massaging his head. He wondered how in the hell does he went home. He knows it’s Chad that took him home, but how did he do it without anyone noticing?He felt a cold breeze. He wrapped his arms around his body and looked at it, and he realized that he didn’t wear anything. He looked under the sheets and noticed that he wasn’t wearing any underwear either.What happened had sunk in as his hands gripped tighter, remembering what happened yesterday.As they finished making out yesterday, they went out of the room after the person next to the cubicle had left the bathroom. They made sur

    "That was hard," said Chrystyn as she put her pen back in her pencil case and then zipped it. "I guess it was easy for you, huh, because Chad's tutoring you?"Ethan rolled his eyes. "Of course not. It doesn't mean we are living together means he's teaching me. We are just a normal couple."Ethan and Chrystyn have reconnected their friendship when they meet again for their next class. They talked a lot about things during the weeks they have missed to converse. They also stroll around the town before classes. Chrystyn's also just planning to stay over at Ethan's unit.Chrystyn shrugged. "Just kidding. You're too smart!"She grabbed Ethan by the arm and whispered, "You think I wouldn't notice how both of you were looking at one another earlier?"Ethan blushed. Chad was their proctor for their last exam, and they have been teasing one another with their stares. He remembered biting his lips and spinning his pen with his fingers while staring at Chad.

    "In my place," said Ethan as he buckled up. The class has just ended, and as Chad told him, he is taking him home when it's his class schedule.Chad sighed. "I'm still thinking about it because first, Yohan is there. His room is just meters away from yours. Not that I don't trust him, but wouldn't that be awkward that I am dating the boss, and he's working with me?"Ethan shook his head. "When we choose your place too, that means I'll leave Yohan behind. Yohan isn't just a person I can leave because he stood by me when my parents cut off connections. He took care of me, and he's a family. That unit, that's the only place I can call mine, my possession."Chad gripped the steering wheel. He hasn't turned on the engine yet because right now, they have to decide. They have already been arguing over this for weeks now, and the exam is already coming. So Ethan wanted to decide with no arguments involved because this conversation was taking a toll on him. He doesn't kn

    Their lips met one another. Chad bit his lower lips, making him groan. He put his hands on Chad’s nape and pulled him closer to his lips. It seems like it has already been a long time since they have kissed and touched each other, and this feeling just fills their hunger.Ethan felt Chad’s hands roaming from the top of his chest down to his waist and squeezing it. On the other hand, from Chad’s nape, he touched his chest and pushed him to the corner. Chad turned their position around, with Ethan now leaning on the corner of the pavilion.He felt Chad’s tongue entering his mouth and sucking his tongue. He groaned, and he did the same thing to Chad, causing Chad to be more aggressive. He grinned.Ethan pulled back and licked his lips. “I like you a lot.”“I like you a lot, too. And I am going crazy with what we’re doing right now,” said Chad as he leaned closer again to kiss Ethan.After a long mi

    Ethan pushed the rack of clothes and pulled out the navy-blue dress. "I think this dress suits you, Chrys."Chrystyn looked at it and sighed. "Hmm, I don't know. The color seems dull, though."He put it back on the rack and pulled out another one. He poked Chrystyn and pointed out the red dress with a high slit. "How about this?""This is gorgeous!" said Chrystyn as she grabbed the dress from Ethan and placed the dress in front of her body as she looked in the mirror. "I think I like this."Ethan has paid for the dress. Sure, Yohan said he could spend money on his attire, but he realized that he'd just go with the black suit he has on his home. Now, he's treating Chrystyn to the dress that she liked. He can see that it suits her too. All they know is to purchase a mask.They entered another shop just two blocks away from where they were. Ethan admits that he's been looking forward to this occasion, particularly that Chad asked him out. He also like

    Ethan still has not yet gotten used to working in his office. And he was working with Chad. It has been days when he started working, and that also means there are only a few days until the acquaintance party takes place.Chad's classes are on Wednesdays and Fridays. And right now, he's looking at his schedule."Wednesday," he said as he looked at Chad, busy working on the paperwork. Chad did not enter his office after that day. He's just looking at him from behind. Sometimes, he goes to his mini living room and watches television. When it's already afternoon, Yohan goes to his office, and they'll go together to the parking lot so Yohan can drop him off at the university.He's really trying to get used to that routine. Even though sometimes he feels useless because he just sits in his office and waits for the afternoon to come.He propped his elbow to the table and just looked at Chad, who had been busy working. He wonders if he's just the same as the oth
