TODAY WENT BY SWIFTLY and I am now sitting in front of Noah, under the stars with the warm and relaxing air. Noah booked an outdoor dinner from a well-known restaurant in the city which I've never imagined having such a romantically sophisticated dinner date with anyone. And this guy right in front of me looks very handsome in his semi-casual outfit. Later on, someone approached us and handed me a bouquet of flowers. Shocked, I accepted it and thanked the restaurant staff."Wow, this is...this is beautiful, thank you," I stuttered. "You're welcome, I hope you like it," he smiled. I was mesmerized by his face so it took me a little while to respond. "I do, I do, but you don't have to," I shyly smiled. "Why wouldn't I if it's for a lovely girl like you?" he smiled and this time, it was so wide, showing off his white perfect teeth. "Well, thank you again," I said and looked away.I was so shy and was so nervous at the same time but I composed and reminded myself to act normal and just be
I DROPPED BY THE office to get the certificate of participation from last time's event and had a little catch up with Miss V. Afterwards, I went straight to my first class in the morning and the first person I saw was Gabby who rolled her eyes heavenwards upon seeing me. I just ignored her and proceeded to walk towards my seat. After a little while, Laura walked in looking like she just came back from the dead. "Geez, happy reincarnation," I greeted her while she was taking the seat beside me. "Fucking tequila," she groans so I laughed at her. "Who told you drinking on a weekday night will give you flowers and rainbows the next day?" I teased causing her to roll her eyes heavenwards. "I guess, me," she sarcastically said that caused me to laugh harder. "Do you have hangover meds like aspirin?" I asked, still laughing and she shook her head to respond. "Do you want to hit the drugstore? I'll come with you," I sincerely said and she looked at me with puppy eyes. "Would you?" she asked
"WHAT DID YOU SAY?" I asked, turning around and glaring at him. "Charlie knows," he repeated. "Why did you tell him?" I shrieked. I don't know what to feel, my emotions were mixed but anger was on top of it all. "Why wouldn't I? We've gone this far," he argued, making my ears turn red. "What are you talking about, Andrei? We've gone this far? No, we didn't because we're ending it now," I angrily said while gritting my teeth. "No, you started this, you wrote me a letter," he insisted. "Haven't I told you it was just a mistake?" I firmly asked him. "I fell for you," he rebutted. I chuckled out of disbelief. "Your feelings aren't my responsibility, Andrei, that's on you," I counteracted. I turned my back away from him but once again, he held my wrist and turned me to face him. "I'm not letting you go, not this time," he whispered before letting me go.He looked at me for the last time before leaving the hell out of me in the middle of the hallway. I groaned, almost a scream, and stomped
I FELL ASLEEP ON the sofa and was awakened by Kayle who was already home along with Chandler and Jessica. I've told them what happened and as the best girls in the world would do, they comforted me and assured me that whatever happens, they're on my side. Chandler tried lifting up the mood by telling that what happened gives us more a reason to why we should drink tonight. Kayle on the other hand, apologized for not coming tonight since she has to attend a family affair and promised to make it all up to me. I was relieved to let my friends know what happened and that they were there for me. Later on, Jessica and Chandler started getting ready so I did the same thing and wore the outfit I prepared earlier. Jessica looks elegantly stunning wearing a semi-silk black dress partnered with an ankle-sized black boots while Chandler looks like a rich chic wearing denim jeans paired with a black top with see-through puff sleeve, complementing it with black heels. "You guys look stunning, I'm
I GOT A BAD headache the next day I woke up and the first thing I wanted to have was water, so as soon as I got up, I went straight to the kitchen and chugged a whole glass of water. Suddenly, I remembered what happened last night, making my blood boil upon reminiscing how Andrei made his way up to me and chose to piss me off. I leaned my both arms into the kitchen island and heaved a deep sigh. Andrei is such a piece of work just like his best friend. I rolled my eyes and once again sighed."Good morning, sunshine," Kayle spoke behind me that made me jumped out of shock. "Woah, you okay?" She laughed. "Yeah, yeah. You just surprised me, a little," I chuckled. "Looks like you were problematizing, huh, what's up?" She curiously asked, walking closer to me. "Well, Andrei happened to be there last night and came up to me and dragged me into a corner and kissed me," I sighed and gritted my teeth out of anger. She then gasped. "What?! That was bold of him!" She screamed, still cannot belie
AFTER MY CLASSES FOR THE DAY, I dashed home to prepare for my meet up with Gab later. I'm still worried about seeing him here since there's a chance someone will see us – possibly Noah, Mr. Ignacio, Andrei, or even Charlie. But why am I distressed by the thought when I have nothing to say to them? It's because if it happens, I'm not sure what to say or how to deal with them. I sighed and shrugged my shoulders instead. I then went into my closet, feeling a mix of excitement and indecisiveness. I wanted to find the perfect outfit for my date night with Gab, something that struck a balance between being stylish and casual. After rummaging through my closet, I finally settled on a pair of black high-waisted flare pants and a crisp white top. I looked through the mirror and kind of amazed by myself. The black pants had a flattering silhouette that accentuated my curves, and the high-waisted design added a touch of sophistication. I loved how they elongated my legs and gave me an air of
EVERY TIME I HEAR knocks on the door, I think it might be Charlie. Like he would come and get on his knees and apologize for what he did. I mean, 6 months of relationship is kind of long, you know? Who would want to trash the moments we have invested with each other that easily?Yea, of course it's Charlie.Tears have filled my eyes upon remembering him and his "Fawn, it's over" breakup line. But before it could fall, my friends-slash-roommates have arrived. They hugged me as soon as they reached my bed and then, finally, my tears ricochet."Awwe, hush now, Fawnie. We're already here," Kayle, the sweetest among us, sincerely said while wiping my tears away.Kayle Benitez is the type of friend who will comfort you with the sweete
Kayle devoured a lot of nachos and Jess was chugging her soda as if it was a vodka.A moment later, I stood up aiming for the comfort room to pee. It took me a couple of minutes to finish and wash my hands. When I came back, I saw the girls sternly looking at their phones so I walked fast towards them and grabbed Kayle's phone to see what their asses are up to.As soon as my eyes landed on her phone's screen, I saw Instagram posts of Charlie making out with different girls at a party. My eyebrows furrowed and I clenched my fists. My heart thumps erratically and I can feel the redness of my cheeks as well as my ears. So before I could destroy Kayle's phone, she snatched it back away from me."See? Look how asshole your ex is," mad Chandler says out loud.

I THOUGHT, COMING TO Meade Creamery would erase all my worries but the moment we got there, it felt more bothering and frustrating not because the store don't have the power to uplift me but because Charlie was there with a girl along with Andrei and the brunette girl from the last time. Kayle guessed it was a double date and Chandler wanted to confront Charlie and punch him right in the face for dating a new girl even if we're just broken up but I stopped her and reminded her that I basically did the same thing with Gab. We just ignored them and proceeded to the counter instead to order. Chandler ordered a chocolate flavor which was oddly delicious even if it's a little bit bitter, Kayle ordered for a strawberry ice cream which according to her is as sweet as her, Jessica ordered a peanut-flavored ice cream because she's fond of eating anything with peanut, and I ordered a very special version of vanilla ice cream. I know it's plain and so cliche for an ice cream flavor and it will n
THIS MORNING FELT VERY different from the mornings I had for the past days because I started the day with a very low energy, feeling drained from yesterday's happenings. I am currently walking to school with my friends while groaning about life and complaining about something that I should take accountability of. My friends were tapping my shoulders for comfort but just like me, their energies are also at its lowest."Wanna drink tonight?" Kayle asked, sternly looking on the way. "Ugh, alcohol cannot heal us," Jessica disagreed in an authoritative way and I agreed. "How about ice cream?" Chandler stood in front of us and her energy suddenly rose up, influencing us to feel giddy at the thought of ice cream as well. "It's been a long time since we had Meade Creamery, I miss the store!" I shrieked and hopped out of excitement. "Meade Creamery, then!" Jessica agreed and we were about to go when we realized we still have classes to attend to. "Let's ditch," Chandler suggested and we all gl
AFTER THE JOB FAIR, Miss V invited us to a dinner treat for acing the event. We're glad that most of the applicants have landed to a good job while some of them were either at the waiting list or decided to wait for a better job opportunity. The guests have thanked us as well for allowing them to use our platform to seek for employees and for us, the Peer Facilitators, are beyond thankful for this event as we were able to participate to an extraordinary event. We cleaned everything before leaving the hall and went straight to a family diner near the school. Miss V told us to order anything we like and so we did. We then waited for almost 20 minutes before our orders were served. The whole dinner engagement was filled with congratulatory laughs and "looking forward to work with you all in our next event" things. Miss V also reminded us to get our certificate of participation after 3 days and we all promised to swing by the office by that time.When dinner's over, we bid good bye to one
