What About Love?

Jeyah's POVI was sitting alone in the school's cafeteria at that time when I heard a group of students laughing while teasing someone in the group. Everyone around in that place was looking at them, especially the girls. I landed my gaze on them since I heard someone speaking, "Guys, the group of Darren is here!"These guys were sitting opposite to each other at a table not far from me. And as I counted them, they are ten—five males and five females. Unintentionally, my gaze landed on someone who was sitting at the center. My eyes were locked on him as he was also staring at me. And oh my God! He is undeniably handsome. He has those deep and expressive blue-grey eyes and finely chiseled features that could make any woman go crazy over him. He was wearing a dark polo that was rolled up to his elbow.But to my surprise, he has similarities with Ryle. I felt the pain creeping gradually inside my heart when I remembered him. How could I ever forget my first love? I quickly set aside those

Darren's POVI told my friends about "Jewel" and like me, they were also interested to know her.But where on earth, could I ever find this woman? I don't know her face, not even her real name. Well, I only knew her age and some of her likes and dislikes. She did not tell me where she lives but she only said, she is currently schooling as a 4th-year college student at a certain university in Quezon. The same with me, because I am also in the 4th year. But what university she is going to? There are a lot of schools and universities here in Manila, so how could I find her?At school...My friends and I used to hang out during our vacant time in the school's cafeteria. So one time, we were having a food trip and while busy throwing jokes at one another, I spotted someone sitting alone in the corner. She was eating a burger, while busy reading something and I guessed it was a book. For the first time, someone caught my attention. I stared at her for a long time, because honestly, she is r

Jeyah's POVI was sitting alone on one of the benches in the school oval when someone approached me. I was reading a psychology book while waiting for my next class."Jeyah Abby Arguello?", the woman called my name with a little rudeness in her voice. I looked at her, only to find out that it was Bridgette. The woman whom Darren introduced to me after the basketball tournament last time. She was wearing an off-shoulder crop top and black fitted jeans. She looked much taller because she was wearing a wedge sandal. She was wearing quite heavy make-up and a lever back earrings. She was sophisticated and it's obvious that she came from a rich family."Yes, If I'm not mistaken, you must be Bridgette", I responded softly."I want to make this direct to the point, Miss Arguello. I'm Darren's girlfriend. So stop messing around with my boyfriend. Don't ever dare. I warn you", Bridgette snapped out as she crossed her arms and smirked at me.I was shocked upon hearing it. I never thought she was

Jeyah's POVI went home with mixed emotions. I still couldn't believe I'm now part of Darren's group. I shook my head and sighed deeply as I flipped the doorknob of the entry door."Hi, sweetie, I'm glad you're here. But you look so upset. Is there anything wrong?", my brother Andre asked curiously. He was at the sala, sitting in a figure four-leg-clamp while leaning his back on the sofa bed. I approached him and gave him a hug. I put my things down and sat beside him."Are you okay, sweetie? What's that serious face?", he asked again.I laid my head on his shoulder and told him, it's just nothing. But my brother knows me very well, so even if I say, I'm fine, he would never be convinced because he really knows when I'm okay and when I'm not."C'mon, tell me. What happened?"I lowered my head because I am still hesitant to tell him what happened in school. He lifted my chin and told me to look at him. My brother is always like that. He would never stop if he wants to know something."

Darren's POVAfter our last class in the afternoon, Angela, Eduard, and I went to the school oval as our agreed meeting place. Other group members were already there sitting on the benches, laughing while throwing jokes and funny stories. We were like this ever since, and we treat each other as sisters and brothers. As we came towards them, my eyes immediately looked for Jeyah but she was not there yet."Hey bro, bubs!", I greeted them all and we gave each other an exuberant high five."Jeyah and Clarisse are not yet around bro. But I guess, they're on their way now", Andrew spoke.I just nodded and sat beside them. But suddenly, Bridgette appeared together with her group of friends."Hi everyone, hello my love!", she said and was about to hug me, but I quickly stood up and dodged away. I was just trying to control myself because I don't want to ruin my mood. No! not this time."Are you guys wanna join us for a night out?", Bridgette asked, showing her flirtatious smile. Her other f
