Justin and Austin is in front of us while Shaun and I are walking behind them with a fix distance. I can't take this anymore.
"What happened? Did you apologize to her?" I whispered to Shaun as I nudge him to his side.
Shaun flinched a little as he turn his head to me and just nodded his head and continue to stare at Austin's back. He seems so out of it and his attention were lock on staring at her.
When Shaun run for Austin, I quickly went outside of the building to stop Justin from coming. She don't need to know what happened right away, and Shaun needs a lot of time apologizing to the woman who he just kissed and touched. So, I thought I could help them a bit.
I mean giv
How long are we walking now? 20 minutes? 30 minutes? Why does the diners feels so faraway right now? It feels like my legs are slowly giving out and those three keep on whispering behind my back. Like literally talking behind my back.But, I was the one who agreed to have a dinner with them, so who am I to complain now?Finally! I could see the facade of the diners from where I am. Just a little bit more."Austin? You're with… friends?" Sarah said as soon as we enter Feel at Home.Sarah had this strange expression on her face. Her eyebrows keep on making weird movements as she looks at me and her lips were little pursed. She knows I’m not a friendly type who would bring ‘friends’ into my workplace for a late dinner. So, this is really a news to her and everybody in the diners.She's eyeing the three behind my back quietly arguing. I can still hear them whispering to each other. I wonder what they are
"What the hell are you saying!?" the voice of the man sitting on the throne rings all through out the banquet hall. "You mean to say, Lycaon has a child!? How the hell did that happened?" he shouted at the paladin in front of him."My king, we are still not sure. But after hundred of years of finding his secret spy on the middle of the forest of Arcadia, we came across an abode buried deep under the ground and saw this piece of paper." the paladin said as he give the king a piece of crumpled paper.The king angrily takes it from the man and read the words written on that old crumpled paper out loud, "Priam, find my child," he reads.He scoffed and tears the paper into pieces and angrily goes back to his throne.He puts his hand against his forehead as he keeps laughing to himself while tapping his foot on the golden stairs."Who does that rotten and stupid Lycaon think he is?" he said tapping his fingers into his temple."I tho
"So what are we going to do about that child!? The Kingdom's future and the whole clan would be in chaos if we don't do anything right now!" Aetos, the fourth of the upper grand stands up as his face were distorted with rage.Aetos is one of Veto's loyal paladins after assuming the throne. He was one of the kingdom's prisoners who has an excellent skills of using swords and other kinds of knives. Veto saw some potential in him and somehow foresee him fighting along him side by side and thus, appointed him as one of his trusted high-ranking officer.On the other hand, Veto is just sitting quietly in his seat, watching the members of the Executives panicking over the news of Lycaon's possible only legitimate child. The Executives are arguing over that news the moment Veto arrives and they seem to not notice his presence at all.After walking around the Kingdom with his son Tyler, Veto call the executives to hold an urgent meeting about the discovery of Lycao
“Why don’t you let this bastard take you home Austin?” Grey suddenly said after going out of the diners. Austin looks at him with a bored and cold expression plastered on her face. She keeps on staring both Grey and Shaun without speaking.First, they are not close. Second, she doesn’t know them clearly yet and lastly, she beat the hell of his cousin, so why would he want to let his beaten cousin take her home?Although flooded with questions and curiosity, she just shakes her head. “I can take care of myself. I’ve been doing it for years, it’s not like this is a first. And I don’t need anybody’s concern and affection,” she said without breaking an eye with Grey. Austin just wants to get out of there. She doesn’t want anyone to know what is really on her mind and wouldn’t want anyone to know that her heart is pounding like crazy because of the idea of Shaun, taking her
I was awaken by the sudden ring on my front door. Who would've visit me in the early morning on a Sunday!? It's only seven am in the morning!Angrily, I tossed my blanket and pillow into the bed and stomp my feet on my way to the door, "What the hell is that!?" I shouted at the top of my lungs with both of my eyebrows forming checks on each different sides while pulling the door hard."Hi Austin!" Shaun said waving his hand in front me with a huge smile on his face.My eyed widen and I immediately close the door and run back to my room, to my toilet."Damn! Why did he have to go here this early!?" I said looking at my freshly awaken self on the mirror.My hair is a mess. There's drool on the side of my face, my eyes were a little swollen and dang! my breath stink. Hurriedly, I immediately removed all of my clothes and quickly step in the shower.It's been three days since Shaun shocked my world by suddenly confessing to me at the middl
“Austin!” Shaun shakes the woman vigorously as he keeps on calling her name.Austin seems to not hear Shaun’s voice. Her mind is flooded with something else, “hmm?” is the only thing that keeps on coming out of her mouth while continuously nodding her head.“Austin!” Shaun pops in front of Austin, which causes the woman to blink repeatedly because of the sudden appearance of Shaun’s face in front of her.“Wha-what? What are you saying?” she said, pulling the man to sit beside her. “Are you saying anything?”Shaun pouted and crosses his arms and looks at Austin, “Do you really have a thing for ignoring me?” he said rolling his eyes to the woman, “I’ve been calling you thousand of times but you just keeps on nodding your head without even looking at me.”Austin’s mouth moves upward as she watches the sight o
“What is it? Just… tell me… right now.” Grey pants, after running as fast as he can right when he heard from Justin that Shaun wants to see him. As soon as he enter the woods just behind Crescent Moon, he knew Shaun is around. He can smell the anxious scent Shaun is giving off. An anxious, frustrated and desperate kind of smell. A scent he never smelled before. He knew something was off. Shaun was never the type to ask for him. He avoids doing that as much as possible. He wants to do things alone without seeking for anybody’s help, even from Grey and Priam. That’s what Shaun is like. But this is different. Something in his scent tells Grey, that Shaun is bothered and troubled by something. To the extent that he would want to ask help from him. Something about the pressure and anxiousness in the air makes Grey tremble out of nervousness. "This is absurd. What the hell is happening?" Grey thought to himself, playing with his fingers.
"Damn that cocky bastard! He didn't even follow me or tried to stop me!?" says Austin as she blends the coffee. "Huh! I really knew he was nothing but an arrogant history professor!""Austin, please. Stop murdering the customers' orders," Peter said, laughing his heart out because of Austin uncommon behavior in the cafe."So-sorry" says Austin.Right after walking out, Austin went to the cafe. But her mood seems to be a little off. She keeps on angrily muttering to herself. Worst, the coffee she blends tastes bitter that several customers have complained."What's the matter? You look really angry and pissed off." Peter said, patting her head. Austin exhales heavily as she puts the cup down on the counter and removes her apron."I don't know Pete. I'm usually not like this. Why am I getting so mad over something so trivial and petty as this?" she said, looking at Peter.Peter chuckles as he gave the apron Austin removes to
