Victim of His Obsession

Prologue

I really don’t think that I will be in this situation. I wasn’t prepared for this, I knew to myself that I’m not that good to be admire this much. I never wanted to be like this, to become a fool by myself.

My name is Xencia Enclovia Morcos, I am being rejected by anyone. Trying to fit in, but it doesn’t suit me. Insecure, judge by the others, low level woman and a no one. That’s how I see myself.

From my very childhood, I try to be good. I’ll admit that I have a lot of friends before. But I still think that I’m not belong. I am being ghosted by my past, the rejection that I had. Not until I met Mark, he became my best friend and my childhood first love.

Mark Justin Wayne is his name, I met him and he cheered me up. I tried to find myself at a young age. My lonely nights were gone, I have him by my side. But it happens again, the graduation is near.

For a 12 years old girl, she will never think of losing her friend.

Mj will study abroad, he tried to reached out to me but it seems that he has not been able to make it any longer. His parents were a bit nasty about me. They don’t want me to be his friend.

In short I lost him, my friends try to gain my confidence again. But I can’t, I become silent to others. I only speak to close friends, I don’t know what’s wrong about me.

A year ago I entered a higher level, I am a high school student. A first grader to be exact, I’ve been separated from my old school friends.

Back to be a loner, luckily one naughty friend of mine enrolled at the same school with me. Dustin Admaston, I knew him he’s a good guy but a little bit silly. We became more close to each other since we knew each other before. I missed them all, mostly Mj. I used to mingle with my classmates, but no one can fill the part of Mj in my heart.

For a high school girl who was a bit shy to be more bold about herself, it wasn’t easy.

I need to grow, I need to be independent and because of that thinking, I reached out to myself and it happened with full determination to be able to help myself out of my cage.

Years passed by, I finally moved out of the trash from my past.

“Cia, c’mon move faster.” Thea said.

“Wow coming from you, wait a bit.” I said to Thea.

She’s my high school best buddy. I met her together with Nica and Layra. To all of my friends before these girls are the best  to be friends with, truly the best of all.

“Wait your ass. It’s so heavy for me to carry these stuffs so help me already!” Thea crossed her brows.

I walked slowly and she rolled her eyes, I really love to tease her this much.

“Lemme do it, she’s teasing you again.” Nica said and flicked my forehead.

“Eh, you always wrecked my happy moments.” I said and Layra flew her hands off my head.

“What are you up for? Aren’t you here to lend your hand for help? Or you’re just here for a bit mess?” Layra held me another box. “Carry them on.” She added.

We’re in Thea’s place, she recently moved out. She wanted to move near us, she loved being with us. We’re all in the same condominium, our rooms were not far from one another. 2000, 2002, 2005, and 2006 also at same floor. We’re like siblings who doesn’t want to be separated from each other.

“Nice, did we get all the stuffs?” I said.

“Yep, let’s took a bit rest then help me to arrange them all, okay?” Thea said and sat on the couch.

“Copy Madame Thea.” I said.

“You always been a good jerk, Cia.” Layra stated.

If you knew how I pleased myself to be more true to itself, you’ll understand me.

“Cut the ass off already, by the way the board exam results were about to be released by Monday I guess?” Nica dive in.

“Yeah, we’re about to have our very own license.” Thea said with all her amusement.

“I really can’t wait to see all of us with our chosen profession.” I said.

“So do I?” Layra said.

“Okay, I’m pretty sure that all of us will be on top. Einstein students for all time, so let’s make a small bet?” Nica always make some money, maybe she’ll use it for her accounting seminars, kidding. A crab is always a crab.

I barely imagined that we already graduated from our graduate school, and that we're now waiting for each profession's licensure exams results. Yeah, we actually did our masters  before taking our boards, it's a strategy for us to actually equipped ourselves for our licensures, we think that taking the board is still essential and so we decide to take it this year's batch.

“I bet in.” – Thea.

“Count me in, this time I’ll beat all of you.” – Layra.

“Fine, as if I have a choice.” I replied.

“Whoever will get a lower rank on the board results, will pay about 3K to the highest rank.” Nica explained.

“Isn’t it a bit too much? I may have to buried myself in debt because of that.” I protested.

Nica laughed so hard, “No way, you’ll never get to be there. Are you messing up?” Nica mocked up and patted my shoulder.

“Oof, I really don’t know why I have friends like you.” I just fake a smile and face-palm on them.

My pretty face gets a lot of wrinkles because of these witches.

———

We finally finished moving all of Thea’s stuffs and arranged them all, it was very tiring.

I lay down on my bed and closed my eyes for a few minutes.

I sigh and looked at my phone, I visited my first novel on a online platform. Since I really broke down when I lost him. I started to write proses, poems, short stories and craft novels.

I am not aiming for money, I just want to express myself. Each thoughts I have with him, yeah it’s all because of him.

I’m not a paid story writer, but I have a lot of readers. I’m happy that they can relate to my works.

Not long, a notification popped into my screen. Mark Vinzon Lazarte added you.

“Huh? He’s one of my high school classmates back then.” I accidentally accept his request.

“No way!” I shouted. I never wanted to be friends with him though, he’s a bit weird and I barely interact with him. And that really gives me a chill. But, Maybe he's in a good state now? You know, people change over time.
