IT was already dark when she reached a narrow pavement leading towards the street where Parker’s house was located. Sophie’s words kept on echoing inside her mind: “Help me talk to him.” How could she even do that? She hasn’t even talked to him for days.

She shook her head to ease the tension away. Just then, her attention was caught when suddenly, she felt like someone was following her. She quickened up her pace just to get away with it. If it was the guy from the club again, she didn’t know what might happen to her.

When she tried to run, she heard running footsteps again behind her. She didn’t want to look anymore. Her mind was set to just run and reach the house. Her hands trembled as she reached for her phone from her pocket. Exhaustion came over her but she didn’t want to stop. Her pace was gradually decreasing that when she tried to take a break, a hand grabbed her by the arm causing her to smack the stranger hitting him in the arm.

“A-Aww!” The guy winced in pain, which made

    AS soon as their last period ended, Kace quickly stood up from her seat and prepared herself to leave first. She was making her way towards the library when suddenly, someone called her. When she turned her back, she saw her friends, Brandon and Kenneth waving at her. She looked behind her just to check if there’s someone else they’re waving at but there was none.She watched as the two made their way towards her. Her eyes were fixed on the floor avoiding their gazes. “Chief!” The two chorused.“Uh... Brands... Ken... W-why are you... talking to me?” She asked them dumbfoundedly.The two exchanged glances. Then, Brandon turned to her. “I don’t know the reason why you lied to us, Kace but we both respect the fact that you didn’t tell us your secret.”Kenneth nodded. “And we also feel bad avoiding you...”Brandon interrupted the other guy from speaking. “But we still deserve an explanation why you didn’t tell us.”“So we’re giving you a chance to trust us with whatever reason you have..

    IT was strange that he hated himself after trying to avoid Kace. He thought it would be best to stay away from her because she might just end up being hurt again. And he didn’t want that to happen. But there was a force that’s inviting him to stay and protect her from anything and anyone. It was taking over him to the point where he wanted to always see her and stay beside her.That’s why he’s cursing himself why he had to be such a fool. He wasn’t supposed to care about her. But strangely enough, he damn cares too much no matter how much he tells himself not to!Almost half an hour had passed since he got near the field and he regretted that he even went there at that time. His hand was unconsciously clenched into a fist, as he watched Kace and Chandler in the middle of the field.He didn’t know why he’s still there despite the voices inside his head ordering him to leave. He guessed he really likes hurting himself to this extent. Yeah, that’s what he was feeling at that moment. HURT

    THE sun has already set in when the two finished their trip to the amusement park. Kace felt really exhausted after all that walking and travelling, though it was only a few hours away from the Parker’s residence. But she couldn’t deny the fact that she enjoyed it, mainly because she was with Luke.“Kace?” She heard him speak beside her.“Yeah?”“You still haven’t told me what you wished for when we got down the Ferris Wheel.”“Oh… that…” she paused and stopped walking. “You… really wanna know?”He nodded.“I…” She sighed before deciding to continue. “…wished you’d give Sophie another chance. Not just to talk to you, but to start anew with her again.”Luke took a step back when she heard Kace’s response. He just couldn’t get back with Sophie, especially now. She was really determined to help Sophie and he wasn’t liking any of it at all. “You don’t know what you’re saying Kace.”“No Luke. You should be telling that to yourself. Can’t you see that Sophie came back here and made an effo

    KACE has been trying to control herself the entire time she was inside Chandler’s car. She still couldn’t understand why he suddenly showed up and dragged her away from Luke. Even if it was for Sophie’s sake, it was still not valid enough for him to just do that.She glanced at the guy who has been focused on the road since they got in. His right hand was steering the wheel while the other was clenched in a fist. Why was he suddenly mad? She heaved a sigh and finally decided to speak. “Stop the car!”But the guy didn’t comply. He continued to drive like he didn’t hear anything.“Stop the car, Parker!” She yelled at him this time.But still, he didn’t listen. Instead, he accelerated the car overtaking the other cars infront of them.She got irritated so she gripped his hand furiously. “Chandler! Are you really trying to get us killed?” she asked him at the top of her voice. “I’ll jump out of the car if you still won’t stop.”He got alarmed at her sudden warning, so he finally jeered th

    IT has been two days since Chandler confessed everything to Kace and yet, she felt like it just happened moments ago. She tried to avoid him at school by all means. But that day, she wasn’t able to escape Stephen’s request of eating lunch with them.She purposely sat next to her brother so she could just grip his hand in case, she’d pass out or act weird infront of Chandler and their friends. There was only her, Kris, Stephen and Chandler on their table, and the atmosphere was not really that good. Not until their other friends showed up infront of them and took their respective seats. “What’s with the eerie silence?” Theo snickered, turning to Stephen.“Oh, you’re both here,” Kris greeted him and Alex.The tanned guy smirked at him. “Is something going on here before we came?” He suddenly asked, noticing the awkward glances and silence.Stephen shook his head. “Nothing much. Except the fact that you both came in and ruined the peaceful ambience.”“Since when did you like being quiet,

    IT was raining hard that night. Her clothes were soaked. Her long hair was tangled. Her breathing was rapid and shallow. Her heartbeat was racing like a mad cow. She has never ran this much before. She looked around her and realized that she eventually reached the park near their school. She wanted to stop and rest for a while but she feared that he might catch her.Just then, a voice from behind called out to her. "Kace, stop!"She didn't look behind. Instead, she continued to run, though her legs were about to bend and break."Kace, please listen to me!" he continued to shout. His voice was near. She tried to double up her speed. But, she couldn't do it anymore. She fell down on her knees. And cursed herself for being weak.Suddenly, she felt a hand on her back. "Kace, you don't have to run away," he said to her.She slowly looked up and saw the face of the guy who betrayed her - the same guy whom she learned to love. "Why are you here?" she managed to speak despite the weakness th

    IT was already 8 pm when Kace and Kris arrived at the club where Alex’s party was held. There were a lot of people inside. Most of them were strangers to her. She gripped her brother’s arm tighter. She felt more secured that way. Kris leaned towards her and whispered, “Just relax, alright?” She nodded at her brother, as she made their way towards Alex who was busy conversing with their other friends near the side of the stage. “Happy birthday, Alex!” Kris greeted him with a punch on his chest.Alex pretended to wince in pain. Then, he noticed Kris’s company. “Oh, Kace, I’m glad you’re here.”“Happy birthday, Alex,” she greeted.“Thank you for coming. Let’s go sit there at our table.” He led the way towards their table where JM and Theo were seated.“Is Stephen still not here?” Alex asked the two.JM just shrugged. “He said he’ll come in late.”“How about Chand?” Kris asked as soon as they were seated.Before one of them could even answer, someone spoke in the microphone catching ever

    “THAT person… is the one whom Stephen had seen placing that note inside your office and that same person is the one who has been on your side during those times you’ve been set up…”She could still hear Nix’s words ringing in her mind. That person… is Luke. She just couldn’t connect the pieces of this bewildering puzzle all together. She had a strange feeling even before she first met him, but never had she imagined that he could do those things to set her up.He has been nothing but nice to her ever since they became close. There was no single clue as to why he’d pretend to be friends with her. She felt his sincerity but all of that was just a sham. She wanted to curse herself for believing in him… and for almost falling for him. Fortunately, she got saved.She suddenly remembered the dream she had. Could the guy be possibly him? She sighed to herself. She didn’t want to enter their room because she didn’t know how to face him… She walked her way towards her locker with a bleak look

    Luke quickly hung up as soon as he heard Chandler’s voice over the phone. He didn’t know how that guy even got his number after changing it again. He turned back at Millie and she was still sleeping so soundly.After a few minutes, the cars infront started to move, signalling that the road must’ve already been cleared. Luke quickly accelerated the car heading towards Millie’s house. But then, he suddenly remembered, he didn’t know where their house was. He decided to just head towards their hotel which everyone knew about.He turned the car to the side and soon after, he noticed a black car following them from behind. That must be Chandler. He speeded up the car again to lose the car in sight. But the car behind was still catching up no matter what he did.Before he could make another turn, the black car behind disappeared. Luke was relieved when he knew this. But then, he got startled when the black car was already right infront of them, causing him to stop the car.“W-What’s that?”

    “Y-You?” Millie mumbled to herself as soon as she realized the first person she saw entering the house.Mykel looked at her in confusion. “You know him? You know each other?” He turned to Luke this time.“Y-Yeah. We’ve met,” Luke answered, avoiding Millie’s gaze.“Oh, that’s great then. Millie, this is my bestfriend, Luke. I’m glad you two know each other already,” Mykel said, placing an arm on Luke’s shoulder.“It’s been years since we last saw you. Why did you suddenly come here in Florida, Myke?” Lance asked him.“Oh, well, I was just forced to come here. But, I guess it’s not that bad coming back because I met her again,” Mykel said, pointing at Millie.“Again?” Lance creased his brows. “You’ve met somewhere before?”“Yeah. We met in New York actually. Isn’t it cool that our worlds are so small?” Mykel asked them with an ecstatic look.“Yeah. Really small,” Luke answered, glancing at Millie.“Oh by the way, you don’t mind me using your kitchen, right? I was just about to cook some

    “Pretend to be dating?”Millie frowned at that thought. She knew Chandler would never agree to it. She didn’t even know how this guy could just tell things, or rather order her things like this. They didn’t even know each other that much, except for the fact that they met in New York. Is this guy even for real?“I’m sorry but I just can’t, Mykel,” she told him.“I didn’t expect you to say yes actually. But I was just hoping you would,” Mykel said, eating his pancakes this time.Millie sensed a hint of desperation in his voice. She wanted to help him get away with his arranged marriage set-up, but his idea was just too much. Anyone who would hear it would seriously think it’s a crazy idea.“So, I guess you’d push through with the engagement with that guy,” Mykel muttered on his seat.Millie stayed silent. She actually forgot about that for a minute. She’d have to face Chandler again any time now and the guy has been waiting for her answer. She didn’t know why she seemed not to be ready

    Everyone's attention turned to the guy who just walked in from the entrance with two guys holding him on his sides. Meanwhile, Millie's eyes almost popped out when she recognized who it was. "Mr. Stranger Guy?""Mr. Who?" Chandler asked her back, who was still down on his knees."Uh... no one,” Millie answered back, watching Mr. Stranger Guy make his way towards the table of the Kramer's."That must be the eldest son,” Millie's dad muttered on their table."Eldest son?" She mumbled back. So, he is a Kramer? Vince and Jane’s brother? Mr. and Mrs. Kramer's son? She shook her head in disbelief. How could their worlds be this small?"You know him, Millie?" Chandler asked her again, now standing up.Millie just shook her head.Then, an emcee from the stage spoke, catching back the attention of the crowd. Chandler groaned from his post. "My proposal is ruined. You haven't even answered me yet."Millie sighed. "I... can just answer you some other time, Chandler."“But, I want this scene to b

    Millie suddenly heard bells ringing inside her head after Chandler said those words. They weren’t even a couple yet. She hasn’t even answered him yet. And now, he’s suddenly saying those things. And worst… infront of his parents. What was he thinking? It’s not like she didn’t want him back or anything, it’s just that it’s all happening so fast.She hit her head with her hand, as soon as she got back inside their house. She was about to sit on the couch when suddenly, a voice startled her from behind. “Millie, dear, you’re home late.” It was her dad, sitting on the couch.“Dad? When did you get here?” She asked back, taking a seat next to him.“Just now. I’m sorry I had to be out of the country most of the time.” He patted Millie’s head. “By the way, where have you been?”“At Chandler’s, dad.”“You seem rather… annoyed or pissed at something. What happened dear?” Her dad turned to her, waiting for an answer.“Uh…” She gulped down before continuing. “Chandler… said to his parents that h

    Millie was feet frozen on the ground as soon as she heard Luke saying those words. What is this guy talking about? Why is he saying these things? Her mind just couldn’t handle it any longer.“I know, Millie. You may not remember anything about me, but I will make you remember me again.” Luke held her hand close to his chest. “I hope you won’t push me away. I’m just doing this to protect you because I know better than anyone else here.”Millie couldn’t speak. She wanted to run away from him because the guy was obviously a stranger to her. But something was telling her that she could trust him. There’s this weird feeling of comfort and warmth that she couldn’t exactly point out. And the way this guy looked into her eyes seemed so sincere that she wanted to believe everything he’s saying.“So please, Millie. Just stay here for this time. I promise to bring you back there by tomorrow,” Luke continued to speak.Millie gulped down and nodded her head.Luke smiled at her. “Come on. I’ll take

    “… I love you so much. And I want us to be an official couple from this day onwards.”Millie blinked her eyes a few times, after hearing Chandler’s words. The guy already confessed and he wanted them to be an official couple. And though Millie was so sure that she felt the same way for him, she still didn’t want to engage herself and commit herself into a relationship.Like what her brother always reminds her, she was in no way going into a relationship and she was too scared to let people enter her life. But at the back of her mind, she was trying to convince herself that she could trust her life to Chandler.She was still in trance and was on the process of formulating an answer, when suddenly, the tall guy let out a sigh. “I’m sorry, Millie. I shouldn’t be pushing you into this.”“Oh… uh…” She was still lost for words. He probably felt awkward at the moment and that was the last thing she wanted to happen. “You don’t have to apologize Chandler.”The tall guy smiled again, his dimpl

    Luke took a step back as soon as he heard the girl saying those words. “I am not Kace!” His mouth gaped open while trying to process what’s happening infront of him. Was she just pretending? He stared at her for a moment. Nothing changed from her appearance, except maybe for her long, wavy hair which was now hanging loosely down her chest, as opposed to her neatly tied-up hair years ago.Apart from that, he was still seeing the same Kassandra Larson whom he fell in love with. The bold and witty girl with kick-ass taekwondo skills was standing infront of him, only now, that girl didn’t recognize him. Is she pretending not to know me? He wanted to blurt out, but this was definitely not just some silly joke anymore.“Millie! Millie! Is that you?” Luke heard a voice coming from a distance. It must be Chandler already, he thought. But, why is he calling her Millie?Luke looked at the girl infront of him again and he could see how scared she was after what he did. He noticed her hands trem

    Millie felt exhausted after dancing to almost all of her friends that night. She specifically told them that she didn’t want to dance, but everyone was just so stubborn especially Chandler, who basically spent all his time dancing with her. She sat next to Brandon on their table as soon as she finished dancing with her brother, who was kind enough to reprimand Chandler from asking her to dance again.“Millie… I haven’t danced with you yet.” Brandon hissed beside her.She turned to face him and saw that the guy was already on high with alcohol. “Brandon, I think you need to rest now.”The guy shook his head, as he grabbed another glass of alcohol on the table. He was about to drink it up, but Millie was just in time to stop him. “Hey! I’m still drinking, Millie!” He yelled at her, causing the others to look towards their table.Chandler and Kris quickly ran towards them and stopped Brandon from raging. “Brandon, that’s enough for now. You need to go to your room.” Kris said, placing an
