Prologue“Say your goodbyes to her, Alexander.” The old woman said, in her low voice. She wiped away the tears on her cheeks as she smiled on the little girl in front of them.The little girl was puzzled while taking glancing on the old woman and to the little boy. Her face was fuming but she tried to hold back all the emotions she had.Looking down, the young boy walked to the little girl. He was hesitant but his instincts get the best of him and hug her. The girl respond to his hug and even hug him tighter.“I will miss you.” The young boy whispered between their hugs.The little girl broke the emotional hug as she looked down, “Will I see you again?” Her voice was little hoarse as she swallowed the knot in her throat. She was playing with the boy’s fingers while sniffing.The boy blinked as a tear escaped from his eye. He held her hand, caressing it before he looked up to the old woman, who was sadly looking on them.“Yes, sweetie.” Her voice cracked and she pressed her lips. She g
One“Settle down, students.” Mrs. Onevic ordered the moment she set her foot inside the classroom.All of the students turned their heads to their adviser who was walking towards the teacher’s table. Without any unnecessary noise, they went to their perspective sits. Mrs. Onevic was eyeing on them, making sure that they would pay attention to her after they are settled. They were all quiet after sitting so she didn’t need to give them another sermon to get their attention.She glanced on everyone making sure that they are all paying attention to her. All eyes and ears are on her. She cleared her throat before she spoke.“Congratulations everyone for having good grades in 3rd quarter.” She complimented, “Now lets give a warm applause to the following names that I will mention for making it to the top 5 this quarter.”After stating, she pulled out a piece of white paper from the folders piled on top of the table. The students were secretly gossiping to each other. Wondering who could be
Two“You can’t be serious, Hannah.” Clarisse objected on a low voice. She was looking straight to Hannah’s eyes with crossed arms.“I’m sick of having 72, 70, 73 and it could be 69 for worst. I need to pass in Mathematics.” Hannah complained on a controlled voice.“But this is not how you will done it. You can be expelled.” Vanessa interrupted with a grumpy face. She gave Hannah a quick glare.“I don’t care!” Hannah blurted, just as after Vanessa’s statement, “Call me desperate but I have to do this. I wanted to graduate.”The girls were discussing something risky behind Hannah’s locker after she took the card that she found in the trash bin. They hid themselves behind the locker, trying not be seen by anyone, and minimize their voice so no one would hear them.“But this isn’t it, Hannah.” Vanessa disagreed as she shook her head and slap her palm on her forehead, “You’re out of your mind.”Hannah rolled her eyes, “I’m doing it. Who’s in?” She emphasized as she glanced on Vanessa and C
ThreeIn Hannah’s room, she sat at the edge of the bed while eyeing her mother walking back and forth in front of her while burying her face on her palm. Her other hand was wrap on her waist while holding her report card. She seems so problematic while Hannah’s heart was pounding like it was about to come out of her chest. Her lips were pale and slightly parted.“C-calm down, Mom.” She struggled to make her words normal but it comes out more suspicious than Emilia thought. Her eyes was still following Emilia’s moves.Emilia stops in the middle as she removed her palm from her face, “How am I supposed to calm down, Hannah Mae?! You just tampered your classmate’s report card!” She exclaimed as she fixed a glare on her.Hannah sighed as she rolled her eyes, “What are you talking about? That’s mine.”“Really?” Emilia’s eyes widen in controlled anger, “Then you better have an explanation why the hand writing in the front doesn’t match on the one at back.”Suddenly, Hannah felt chills on he
FourThe class was quiet as they were copying notes that was written on the board. Everyone was focused and writing fast because after 15 minutes Mrs. Reynoso is about to give them a short quiz. But Hannah doesn’t seem to feel like copying. Yeah, she was copying but her hands movement was so lousy. She was even leaning her back against her chair and let out a heavy sighed.“Are you okay?” King asked her, without looking on her. His eyes was focused on copying.She pouted, “My notebook is almost full with this crazy numbers and letters but all of them doesn’t seem to make sense in me.”King paused from writing and looked on her, rising his brows, “Which part?”“All. Its all geek to me.” She replied as she was writing.“Do you mind if I simplified it?” He offered.She automatically turned on him with a charming smile and their gaze meet, “I love to hear that.”He replied with a small smile and lean his back on his chair before looking on the blackboard. She also looked on the board as s
Five“Its almost time, class. Remember your project for the 4th grading in Arts.” Mr. Rosales announced as he stood.“Family tree.” They all answered in chorus. Others sounded too bored to listen.Mr. Rosales nodded, “Make it creative. I don’t want to see a work of elementary or primary.” He paused as he glanced to each and everyone’s gaze, “I want an art from a 4th year high school, got it?”“Yes, sir.” Everyone answered almost at the same time.“See you tomorrow.” Mr. Rosales said his goodbyes before he exited the room.The moment he was gone, the bell rang for their dismissal. Everyone was almost to jump the moment they heard it. Each of them were hurriedly tidying their things and sprinted to the door. Others were chatting while heading to the door.Hannah was putting her notebook in her bag when Vanessa and Clarisse appeared at her back. She was too mindless to notice their presence.“Hannah, wanna join us on a walk going home?” Clarisse offered with a smile.Hannah gave them a q
Six“Good morning, grandpa.” King greeted as he was passing by at the living room where his Grandpa Alexander was sitting, reading a newspaper with a cup of coffee on the table in front of him.“Good morning, son.” Alexander replied and suddenly his brows raised as he turned to look at King. He saw his grandson walking to the kitchen with a charming smile. He just shrug and pay his attention back to the newspaper.“Good morning, mom.” King greeted as he went to table in the center of the kitchen and sat.Jenalyn was busy frying a fish as she turned her head halfway. Enough to see him sitting while energetically smiling at her.“Hey, what’s with that sparkling smile?” She teased as she flipped the fish and decreased the fire of the stove.He raised his brows as he shrug, “What? Don’t I smile like this before?”“Yea... But not as sparkling as it seems.” She turned off the stove and removed the fish from the frying pan. She put it in a rectangular stainless, together with the fried fish
Seven-Hannah Mae De Vera's POV –I was looking down as I put my hands together. I'm kind of unsettled with this idea dropping by at King's house. He invited me for a dinner and I said yes to it without thinking. And now, here I am. Dealing with my cold chills in my palms as my heart beats fast.“Hey, cool it.” I heard him say as he glanced at me, “My mom is good and friendly. She will like you.”I lifted my eyes to see a glimpse of his face with a small smile and I looked back down, “I hope so.”I didn't notice that we were standing on the porch until he took a deep breath. I lifted my head as I looked at him. He seems tense but he tried to act calm. He looked at me when he noticed that I was staring at him. He forced a tense chuckled that made me feel even awkward.“I’m sorry. It’s my first time to introduce a girl to my mother.” His smile was so innocent and sincere.I softly chuckled as I looked down and played with my fingers, “It’s also my first time to be introduced by a guy.”
Epilogue Just as the bell rang, I sprinted to the door. I didn’t wait for our professor to say his goodbyes. I was even the first one who went out of the room before anyone could. I hurriedly went to the elevator and waited for it to open. Today is special because mom is going home from Jakarta. She stayed there for almost a year for business partnership and now, I’m so excited to see her. I miss her so much. I had a lot of things to say to her. I couldn’t wait. Just as I arrived, the elevator rang and It opened. I saw our law professor inside as I entered. I smiled at him as I greeted, “Good morning sir.” He smiled back, “Good morning, De Vera.” Did our professor just smile at me? I felt like my cheeks burning. He was so handsome and hot. No wonder why most of my classmate were into him. And if they were here when he smiled, they will probably go insane. The elevator closed the moment I entered and I felt it moving down. I leaned my shoulder against the wall as I waited to rea

Thirty-Eight-Daniel King’s POV –It felt different when you were attending a wake. Especially when it was someone close to your heart. I felt uneasy and this feeling made me uncomfortable. The house was filled with cold atmosphere and everyone did not feel like talking. It was not that crowded considering that only grandpa’s and dad’s close friends were here. I heard nothing but this deafening silence that echoed in the entire house.

Before I could get pissed off by his presence, I tried to recognize where I am. I remember checking in at an inn with Hannah and probably I was still here. Hannah? I turned around and I was shocked to see that she wasn't there. Where is she? I was sure that I slept next to her. And how the hell did dad know that I was here? Maybe Hannah told him? No way. She won’t do that. I’m sure she won’t. "Fix yourself, young man. We are leaving.” Dad ordered. And I won’t be surprised if he sounded like commanding. He usually ordered everyone around as if he was the big boss, which pissed me off. "You can’t order me around as if you own my life.” I protested as I fix a glare at him. He frowned, "And you can’t talk back to me like that. Knowing that I am your father.” His tone was tense and he emphasized
Thirty-Six-Hannah Mae’s POV –I was rolling on the bed when King left the room. I couldn’t sleep, even I wanted too. I couldn’t stop myself from thinking of how we satisfied ourselves. It sent goosebumps to me every time I thought about it and I ended up chuckling like an idiot. His whole body was so warm and his dick tasted so good in my mouth that I couldn't get enough of it. I love sucking and licking it. And how he massaged my breast is really something. I slowly opened my eyes as I breathe out.Oh gosh. I’m imagining it again and it was making me wet.
