Leaning on my elbows, as I stared at the yellow dress, I was overwhelmed with emotions. There was so much to say, but sadly, no one was by my side to pour it out.

It was the event day and I was having mixed emotions as the dress I got from my buddy was not as I had expected. Deep down I was regretting telling him to get me the dress.

‘Why did I not pick the dress when we both had gone shopping?’ I whined, and sighed heavily.

Suddenly, my door was pushed and there stood my bestie who I was missing badly.

“Krist! What are you doing here this early?” I asked, getting on my feet. “And what is that?” I pointed at the box in her hands.

Handing it to me, she replied, “It's for you!”

Wrapping my hand around her shoulder, I said, “Oh! Krist, you are truly a life saver. I can't believe it, just last night I complained to you about the dress bought by Buddy and you got me another…”

“Woah! Slow down, Prisha!” She peeled my hand off her shoulder and added, “I didn’t bring it for you. I don’t eve

    “And we are done!” When the beautician finally announced, I opened my eyes and turned to the mirror.Gradually, I got on my feet, looking at my reflection. Even though I had made it clear that I wanted light make-up, she had still painted my face with so many products whose names I couldn’t even remember.“Is… Is there a problem?” as she asked, I turned my gaze to her.“Don’t… don’t you think it's too heavy?” I stammered.“What? Are you kidding me? This is the most light makeup I have ever done in my life. And trust me, you are looking very good!”Even though I was not ready to believe her, I still nodded and glanced back at the mirror. This time it was not just the makeover, I checked my dress as well.As the note said, I found myself looking great in that lavender dress, but deep down a sense of regret was hitting hard and making my heart pound. I had a feeling that Buddy would feel bad for not wearing what he brought for me.“Princess, I…” when Buddy entered the room all of a sudde

    ‘What the hell is going on?’ musing, as I turned to Buddy, he took my hand and said, “This is our time. Let’s do our best!”Getting that it was not the right time to talk, I saved my interrogation question for later and got prepared to rock the stage. As we started to walk, suddenly an announcement was made, shocking me to hell. “Please let's welcome our today's guest of honour, Dr. Lewis Everdeen, who will be providing his services at our school this year. Dr. Lewis is going to take care of you all, so you need to respect him just the way you all respect our working personnel."Eyes widening in shock, nonchalantly I turned my head to him only to find a playful smile on his face. “Is… Is this the surprise you were talking about?” I stammered.Looking straight ahead, he replied,“Hope you like it. Now let’s focus on the stage. I don’t want you to trip and get hurt.”When we were done with our walk, we returned backstage. Suddenly, I was wrapped in a tight hug which nearly choked me to

    *To make up for not updating for long, I am compensating for it with another additional chapter for today! Enjoy!*~~~~“I just want to talk! Please!”After hearing him, my hands came to a halt, and I could no longer escape him, even though I could. I did not know what persuaded me to stay and hear him out. Even after being hurt by him so deeply, I know I was a fool to do that. Sipping in a bit more oxygen than usual, slowly I turned to him. “Fine!” I folded my arms across my chest and added, “Make it quick. I don’t want to miss my best friend's performance.”Rubbing his hand on his pants, he then shuddered, “Why… Why didn’t you tell me he is your uncle?”Raising my brows, I asked him back, “And why is that suddenly important?”Planting his hands on his hips, he paced back and forth with no words. I guess he was struggling with words, but it already bore me. “I think you are done. I better leave!” saying, I had just turned to open the door, but suddenly he stood beside me and push

    “Any updates from him?” When Kristen suddenly plunged beside me, I was dragged out of my trance with zero memory of where I was and what I was doing. To overcome my short-term memory loss, I had to scan around, only to find myself seated in the third row of the bus, heading towards school. Snapping her fingers in front of me, Kristen called me out again, “Hello! Prisha, back to earth.” “I am back on earth,” I replied, pulling my gaze at her. “I am just trying to figure out what part of earth I am in.” “If so, then let me help. You are on the school bus, going on an important mission,” she replied, chuckling. “Hahaha! Not funny!” “So, I was asking if there are any updates to the part which was left unanswered since yesterday,” she said, getting back to the main topic. With the urge to get a little bit of more oxygen, I gasped and then, with a heavy heart, I replied, “No, I tried calling him but he's unreachable. I don’t know if I was just overreacting or it was what it meant to b

    With a heavy heart, I headed to my classroom. The first thing I did after reaching my desk was to take a glance at Aster’s class, but there was no sign of him. Sighing deeply, I tossed my bag on the table and plonked on my chair, not wanting anyone to come and see me. I was not in the mood for socialising with anyone. But Newt appeared before me out of nowhere with a smile which used to make my heart pound and butterflies linger inside my belly. I found out that his smile had lost its magic as it had no effect on me. ‘Was it because I was too stressed regarding Aster?’ ‘Or was it because I had learned my lesson of not falling into guys who already have a girlfriend?’ Whatever it is, I was happy with it as I didn’t have to carry panic alongside stress. “Hey!” Forcing a smile, I replied, “Hey!” “You were looking awesome yesterday. Really, I was not able to recognize you…” Getting the same compliments over and over from different people was making me sick, but controlling my e

    “Krist!” Coming to a halt, I took a deep breath, before turning my heels around, and facing Kristen and Tarry, who were following me to the library. Caressing her arms, I tried convincing her, “Trust me, I will be fine. It is just a matter of one hour.” Taking my hand, she spoke out in a concerned tone, “This is the first time you are facing detention without me and I do not like it. So, please let me stay.” “Krist, no, they wouldn’t allow you. Besides, you have absolutely no fault, so I wouldn’t let you suffer,” I said, putting extra effort into persuasion. “You too have no fault. So, why are you…” “Krist!” I interrupted. “You should leave.” “But…” “If you are really feeling bad for me, then I have a job for you.” Giving me an alarmed look, she asked, “What is it?” “I want you to look out for Aster and find out if he is really leaving.” “GOD!” Rolling her eyes, she rumbled, “Are you even serious? Because of him, you ended up here and you are still caring about him? Duh! Pris

    “Ahh!” screaming my lungs out, I shut my eyes tight.Helplessly, I waited for my body to land on the floor and prepared myself to hear my bones cracking.But even after time passed, nothing happened as I had thought. Instead, I sensed the surroundings falling into silence.Wondering if I had already reached heaven, slowly I opened my eyes. Seeing an unexpected person looking down at me, my mind went blank.‘What… What just happened? Did I really die?’ I mused.‘If yes, then why am I seeing Aster?’As my eyes widened, I muttered underneath my breath, ‘Please, don’t tell me he is the Angel of Death.’When one of the books fell knocking on his head, his scrunched face made it clear that he was no Angel or anything. Also, it made me realise that I was still in the world of mortals.The biggest news was I was rescued by Aster and I was in his arms as if I owned it. Our eye

    The sun was already close to diving into its nest when Aster and I stepped out of the building. Being late was the least thing I had expected, so I was at the complete stage of panic. Thanks to Aster and Riddle, who assisted me to arrange the books, or else I would end up staying at the library. Riddle left soon after they had placed the last book on the shelves. No bye, no see you, he just left without any words. Which was probably due to the rage he held against Aster for leaving without giving him a valid reason. Even though Aster saved my reputation of being bad in front of him, I felt bad for him and his friend. Tearing their friendship apart was the last thing I would ever want, but the circumstances evolving around them were making me appear like a villain. Limping, I was able to get out of the building, but when it came to the stairs, panic oozed inside me. While I was wondering how I was going to walk down, suddenly, Aster picked me up in his arms. Nervously, I grumbled,

    “Prisha!” Mom's sudden call dragged me back to where I was lying and I couldn’t help getting more panicked.The door to my room was flung wide open and I was numb on the bed, watching her breaking in.“What is wrong, love? Why were you screaming?” she inquired and I hastily darted at Aster, who was above me.But to my surprise, there was no sign of him. ‘Where did he go?’ I mused, pulling myself up and looking around.“Honey, I am talking to you.” Mom moved closer to me.“I…” gulping hard, I tried to find a possible reason to tell her.Getting more alert, she began to move around. “Why are you not saying anything? Tell me what it is?”“There… There was a cockroach,” I stammered, scratching the corner of my forehead.“HONEY!” She rolled her eyes, probably in disappointment.Wrapping my hand around her, I mumbled, “I am sorry to scare you, mom. You know how scared I am of cockroaches.”Shaking her head right to left, she rumbled, “And you scare the hell out of me.”“I am sorry. Now you

    After spending the whole afternoon laughing and chattering, Kristen and Tarry left, taking all the charm of my room along with them. The group studies which we were intended to do were lost between our fun but none of us cared about it.When I was left all alone in my room, I leaned on my hands and surveyed my room. Then suddenly I caught sight of the paper bag placed on my nightstand. Reaching out for it, I peeked inside the bag before a big smile appeared on my face.I must admit that Aster was reflecting on his mistake without any miss by taking full care of me. As promised, he had sent me the medicine along with a bar of chocolate.Giving damn care about the medicine, I shoved my hand inside the bag and grabbed the chocolate which was already flooding my mouth with saliva.Then tossing the bag aside, I ripped the packet. Feeling bliss about taking each bite, I kept on eating the chocolate as if there was no promise tomorrow.‘I am sorry,

    “Krist! What is taking you so long?” I grumbled, staring at the washroom door. “Just a second,” the reply came from behind the door. “I wonder what you are doing there. You were the type of person who would never delay,” I complained after having to wait for so long, but all I got was a long silence. Another couple of minutes passed by with no sign of Kristen, which pissed me off. Fed up, I got on my feet before grabbing my bag, and preparing to leave. I shouted out loud, “Krist, I am off. Come when you are done,” and without hearing her out, I made my way out. Overcoming the slight pain in my ankle, I made it through the front door and successfully reached the gate. But as soon as I got to the road, I was greeted by Tarry standing before his gate. “Hey! Prisha!” he called out, waving at me. “Hey!” I replied, wondering where he might be heading with his bag. “Where is Kristen?” he asked, glancing at her house. “She is at her house,” I replied and bit my lips.

    Early in the morning, when the lights penetrated through the window pane and fell on my face, I awoke from my deep sleep. With zero knowledge of where I was, I squinted my eyes.But caring less and loving my sleep more, I shut back my eyes, trying to hop back to my dream dimension, but suddenly my voice echoed inside my head, “I don’t want you to leave, Aster. Please stay!”With a smile on my face, I flipped to the other side but my hand suddenly fell on somebody, sleeping next to me. Sanity breaks in right away, making me aware of everything.The last memory I had was watching the stars with my head resting on Aster’s shoulder. And I didn’t find that good news.‘Did… Did I end up in his bed?’ a voice asked, which added more to my panic attack.Scared to open my eyes and see him next to me, I gulped hard and checked if I was still dressed. Thankfully, I was able to feel my clothes.‘That means I just cuddled with myself,’ my heart was at ease for a second. The next second, it picked u

    “Wait a second, don’t tell me you are kidnapping me for taking Newt’s name!” My heart pounded along with the chills crawling on my skin as I panicked. “Ptf!” he snickered and added, “You think I would do that for such a small thing.” “I can’t say, right? You are the same person who dumped me just for seeing me with my uncle,” I didn’t leave a chance to spare him. Clearing his throat, he then spoke out in a grave, serious tone, “I just want to make a proper apology.” “By kidnapping me?” I raised my brows at him, even though his gaze was pulled away from me. “Are you even serious?” “I am not kidnapping you, Prisha. I am just taking you somewhere, we can talk without any hindrance,” he explained, which was not enough for me. “You can stop the car and we can talk here,” I offered. With no any further words, he kept on driving and this pissed me off like hell. Trying not to lose my temper, I took a deep breath before trying to speak in peace. “Aster, I am requesting you again.
