Chapter 56: Possibilities "Can you calm down?" I'm embarrassed to say it because I don't really know why the tension seems to suddenly become high here in the parking lot. There aren't many students but we will be caught by the teachers when they make a scene here. "I'm just asking for her number so I can help her when she needs it. Is there anything wrong with that?" Supremo asked coldly and I could see that he had adjusted his composure. "Number? Your style is rotten. If she's willing to give her number, she's been doing it for a long time." Patry replied, still maintaining his sarcastic tone. I cleared my throat. "It's okay for me to give him my number--" I stopped talking when Patry glared at me. Hey, there's nothing wrong with giving it up. Why is he still making this a big deal? Supremo just wants to help me. "See? She wants it. Give me back my phone, snatcher." Supremo even meant to emphasize the word 'snatcher' so based on its tone, he wants to pick a fight. "What did yo
Chapter 57: Right "So, you're saying that everyone really doesn't know each other at the entrance? We can't avoid that especially since they have friends. Spoilers are inevitable." Supremo stated. "What if it's just like this?" Olivia cutted. "By midnight, everyone has to wear a mask because once the lights are turned off, the art club members will shuffle all the students so they can no longer recognize each other once the lights turn on again. What do you think?" I nodded at her suggestion. "That’s right. Your suggestion is good so that the plan will maintain its thrill as well. Since the student council said that only Grades 11 and 12 are covered by the Acquaintance Party, all events have been separated from Junior high school. It's also easier that we can control the students because there are only a few sections per strand." "That's a good suggestion. Now, it's better to talk about budgeting and program flow time." the secretary agreed. "Okay, that's good. I'll take that. I w
Chapter 58: Fear "Are you tired? I'll substitute you first." Supremo approached me and snatched the attendance list I was holding. "I'm not tired yet. Besides, I'm just doing attendance. France is my helper." I pointed out France who is also our club member who’s assigned to the boys attendance list. "You're in my place. I don't like the atmosphere there. It's just disgusting to move." Supremo laughed, that's why I just looked at his place earlier. Okay, looks like I already know why. I went to Supremo's place earlier and the person next to me looked at me. "Why are you here?" I heard him ask. "I'm supposed to be here on duty. Don't you want me to be here? The girls have been feasting on you there since earlier so maybe you're sending me away so you can enjoy it?" I asked because I was mixed with resentment so he looked at me as if he couldn't believe what I said. I ignored him and just kept watching here in the post. Today is the Acquaintance Party. As planned, it was not nec
Chapter 59: Relax "Why aren't you talking there anymore?" I went back to the present and realized Supremo and I were dancing. I don't know myself but my knees are trembling and I feel like I want to cry again because of what I saw and heard earlier. Olivia and Patry won Mister and Miss Acquaintance and the slow dance started at midnight. "Sorry." I said softly as we continued to sway. I don’t know if I still have the energy to go ahead and really enjoy the night even though this is the last program. Disgusting. Is that just a show or is it true? Patry kissed Olivia in front of a crowd. His lips, not just kissed by a woman like me. Not just one, but three more. The first was at the clinic, the second was when Sophia became his girlfriend and now Olivia. I'm not the only woman he kissed. We're many. Is he playing with me? Am I right that I should just give him my trust? Why does he seem to be overdoing it? "Why do you seem to be thinking of something? Do you have a problem?" I loo
Chapter 60: Come and Go "What are you doing here?" My eyes were wide when I asked that. But instead of answering my question, he gestured his hand at the big screen. "Eyes on the movie." I immediately looked at the big screen but I couldn't really focus on what was really going on in the movie because my heartbeat suddenly became abnormal again. Why is it that he always affects me like this even though he hurts me over and over again? I never learned. I must be angry but I can't help myself because I just saw him, I want to hug him too tightly right away. I looked at him again and was surprised when he caught me. He pointed at the big screen again so I had no choice but to follow. I just kept asking myself. Why is it that even in the dark, his handsomeness has not faded? I can still see in him that he stands out because of his face even though the outfit he is wearing now is simple. No wonder I can’t consider myself suited to someone like him. A few minutes also passed until the
Chapter 61: New Seatmate "For sure, you've seen the photo message I sent you." I stared at him. "How did you get my number? Why did you send me something like that? Are you really crazy?" He raised both his hands. "Chill. I just want to help you. Isn't it, so you don't look like a fool anymore?" "Are you really Patry's friend? Why are you ruining his image? How long are you going to do this? I told you to stop this, right?" I said and got up from my seat. I was about to leave the canteen when he grabbed my arm. "I'm just helping you. Patry and I are friends. Do you want to know all the details that day? I can ---" "Stop messing with me, Nucleus." I forcibly withdrew my arm from him and walked away from the canteen. I gasp in anger when I return to the classroom and thankfully, Boun and Prem are still gone. They couldn't eat with me anymore because they went to the swimming club. It's been one week since I saw that photo message and I just acted like nothing happened. Literally n
Chapter 62: Aloof "We didn't know that after Fern left, there would be a replacement. You won't be really sad now that our practice at the swimming club is ongoing. You’ll always have someone with you." Boun happily said that I just didn’t give a response. I looked behind me and saw Xenon currently smiling at me. I sparingly smiled back at him and just faced the front again. What he said came true that he was my new seatmate. He came into our classroom in a uniform similar to ours and was introduced to him by our subject teacher that he’s from Jerome University. He chose to swap with the person behind me and sat there as if he was close to me. He is now actually a transferee this year here at Arkinstein University. "I didn't know what he was saying was true. I thought he was just joking." I said and they laughed. "By the way, you met each other so early. And you met at a sports competition?" Prem turned to Xenon, "Will you join the varsity basketball team? I mean ... will you try o
Chapter 63: Cheated "The title, introduction and statement of the problem you made are good. Your topic is good so I’ll look forward to the outcome. I know the outcome will be great too." said by our subject teacher in Statistics which made the four of us smile. "We're going to work hard! But can we rest first this week since we're ahead of the others who are just making an introduction?" We laughed at Boun’s courage. He really managed to demand a break while they also didn't have a break at the swimming club. "All right. But don't be too complacent about always resting. You might forget your research objectives while resting." Sir said so we nodded. We went back to our seats happily. We are asked to circle our chairs around each other so that everyone in the research group could talk properly. We have already made the title, introduction as well as the statement of the problem. We really speeded up the work because sometimes, Prem and Boun couldn’t help us. Especially as their co
PATRICIA “Patricia.” Patricia looked at her brother. "Hmmm?" "I’ve been calling you to come downstairs. You have a visitor." She stood up and released the book she was holding. "Who is it?" "Just come down and look. Stop asking." Kit rolled his eyes and left his younger sister. Patricia, on the other hand, was still smiling until she came downstairs to see who her visitor was. She opened the gate and smilingly looked at her alleged visitor. But that smile of hers suddenly disappeared when she saw that visitor. "It's been a while." Patricia was about to close the gate again when the man in front of her blocked his body to stop her. "I want my fiancé back. Please come back to me." Patricia's face immediately shifted when he said that and faked a smile. "You missed your chance, so now I want you to stay out of my life." ** KIT “Your sister looks adorable.” Kit looked at his friend, Yang. "Don't you know that every time you tell me that, I get disgusted?" "Bro, court Kit’s
"Mom, wake up." When I heard that little voice, I immediately rolled over and woke up. "Why baby? What's the matter?" I asked him tenderly but I was surprised when he rolled his eyes. "Mom, your hair looks like grass. Fix your face as well." That's all he said and left me. I just forced a smile because of what I heard from him. That kid really resembled Patry. I'm just really holding back from being annoyed every time. And I just heap my annoyance on Patry every time that kid treats me like that. His name is Kit Bautista, our 10 years old baby boy. He is still our baby even though he speaks like that. For heaven's sake! He's just a grade 4, an elementary student. Yet when he speaks, he sounded like Patry when he was so snobbish before. It's really his fault. I just fixed myself and went down. My husband and our second daughter appeared before my eyes. "Mom, you look so pretty." She approached me and even kissed my cheek. Sweet! Her name is Patricia Bautista. Our second born, 7

He is the culprit why Kira's parents died suddenly. It was a plane crash, a suicidal thing. I think he paid the pilot of that plane. Is he that desperate to get rid of Kira? I gritted my teeth in disgust. "You're already in jail but you still don't regret what you did. You have a daughter but that's what you did to Kira. What if all that happens to Olivia?” I faked a laugh. “Maybe you also intentionally killed your wife before, Olivia's Mom. Isn't it? " He immediately stood up and punched the glass that was blocking between us. "I LOVE MY EX-WIFE! I LOVE MY DAUGHTER! I DID EVERYTHING FOR THEM! OLIVIA JUST FORCED TO MAKE IMPRISONED BECAUSE OF PEOPLE LIKE YOU!" I stood up as well and brought my face close to his even though there was a glass blocking us. "I didn’t fo
WARNING before reading the 'Untold Chapters', you have to read from the start (if you haven't yet) to understand the flow of the story and why it has these additional chapters. ** Patry's POV Olivia De Guzman. I just looked at her and averted my eyes. I heard of her, she's the daughter of a famous senator. There were so many rumors about her and the news was fast. That senator donated half a million to the university for the construction of another building. In simple words, he's a big fish. So all the teachers as well as the director were kind to Olivia. But what amazed me was that she has been clinging to me a lot since she transferred. Annoying. With the dynamic number of students here, why me? "I transferred here because of you. I mentioned you to Dad and you know he's so powerful, don't you? When he finds out that you don't pay attention to me, he will do bad things just to bury you alive." That girl was insane. She insisted on talking to me no matter what I did to push her
WARNING before reading the 'Untold Chapters', you have to read from the start (if you haven't yet) to understand the flow of the story and why it has these additional chapters. ** Patry's POV Weeks passed until I managed not to contain my anger, not only to the men surrounding her. But it looks like my friends will be my rivals as well. We were walking at the mall and accidentally, we met Kira at the Game House. I didn't know about them going to the mall together. My friends invited me, and it distracted my direction from her. Another point is that they seemed to be drawn to her. "Let's go somewhere." I walked ahead and walked away from Kira. I’ll be back, love. "Your sister's friend looked so cute." I heard Nucleus say so I clenched my fist. I heard Third laugh. "There are a lot of good ones in the Grade 11 batch. To be honest, there are more girls here in Arkinstein than in San Fuego High." "But Patry's sister's friend is way more cute." I stopped walking when I heard what
WARNING before reading the 'Untold Chapters', you have to read from the start (if you haven't yet) to understand the flow of the story and why it has these additional chapters. ** Patry's POV My pride is killing me slowly. "No. Don't you ever come here again." I sternly said and rushed back to my room. After I closed the door, I placed my hand on my chest .... it’s clenching and seems like I’m going to puke. I've been pushing her away out of our house. She doesn't deserve to be treated like this. I knew that all along but I still kept on saying bad words to her. I’m forcing her to leave and I’m making her feel that she does not belong to our family. I grabbed my camera and tried to take some pictures of her while going home. All of the pictures of her that I took were her looking so sad… because of me. I've been taking pictures of her since she was in Junior Highschool, I forgot to mention. It was worth it because I always see her face. Now that she’s now always going to our h
WARNING before reading the 'Untold Chapters', you have to read from the start (if you haven't yet) to understand the flow of the story and why it has these additional chapters. ** Patry's POV “MOM! HE PUSHED ME! HUHUHU!” I flashed a disgusted face as I saw the kid’s crying drama. I was only five and it’s my first time to try playing with the other kids in grandma and grandpa’s hacienda. I really thought that the kids here are so kind, welcoming, and playful. But then, this male kid who approached me tried to snatched my transformer figure. It was so expensive and I’m scared that it might get broken. Instead of pulling the figure with him, I pushed him instead. Is that bad? “Hijo, what happened? You pushed your playmate so hard that it caused him to have a bleeding knee.” Our grandma approached me but her voice was so soft. It’s like she just wanted to understand me. “I pushed him because he wanted my toy. This is only mine.” I averted my eyes and I heard her sigh. Another day
Chapter 104: Bells are ringing I was enraged for almost a month while enduring not talking to Patry. I have no intention of telling him more about the baby in my womb now. I’m thinking that I would just raise him on my own. I don't want to go and marry a man who is a cheater and can't be satisfied. I can't stand the baby's suffering in the future. He had set up a tent outside our house, waiting for me to talk to him but I didn’t bother. "Kira, Patry have been sleeping outside for almost a month. When are you going to talk to him?" I looked at Sera. "Why did you let him in through the gate? He's banned here, isn't he? My head gets even hotter when he's near." "He bought you macaroni soup downstairs and the cravings you said last night, siopao and siomai." I was stunned and immediately stood up. I heard her laugh and I knew she was teasing me. I went downstairs until I reached the dining table. My stomach immediately growled when I saw the macaroni soup. I took a spoon and immediate
Chapter 103: Break up? "I'm not sure if our wedding will continue." They looked at me as if they couldn't believe me. Here I am again with the complete squad at a restaurant. It's Nin's treat and she herself insisted on it. She said that she made a lot of money last month so she took it as an opportunity to treat us. Or maybe that's not really the reason. "What are you saying? You're just newly engaged but you're going to break up? Do you really love each other?" Jerich asked one after another and I just sighed. My head hurts again. Plus the fact that Patry hasn’t spoken to me politely until now and he’s really stubborn! I was trying to convince him to have a serious talk about our wedding plans but he didn't want us to go back to the wedding planner that Mommy G got. It's embarrassing for Emerson because he walked out that day and didn’t come back. I can’t really understand his attitude anymore! "They have opposite interests. They can't agree on one option and my brother doesn't
