Every year we celebrate the day our school was founded as Foundation day. It feels like a festival and everyone at school looks forward to this day.
We have so many clubs at school and each member of the club chosen as a leader takes responsibility for an event conducted by that club on that day.
I was in Eco Club, and I was chosen as a leader this time. We planned to plant trees all over the town on that day. Jay and Vian volunteered to help me.
Other clubs also organized a food festival in the afternoon and a party by the music club in the evening. Jay and Haze were in charge of that party.
"So you are not going to talk to him ever?" Jay asked me lying down on my bed lazily watching me rummaging through my wardrobe for a nice dress for the party tomorrow.
Jay came back earlier than expected from London. I don't know what Vian said but once he found out that we are in a fight he started pestering to talk it out with Vian.
"You guys are mise
Dear diary, It's been a long time since I wrote but now I am here since I feel good about everything that's going on. I guess I finally conquered my emotions. I know it's stupid, but I feel like I am doing ok around Vian. He doesn't affect me much anymore.It's been a month since that fight with Ryan or should I say a misunderstanding? Vian and I were keeping our distance at school even though we didn't talk about it.I didn't tell him what happened with Ryan that night. I am pretty sure if I told him he would do the opposite just to rile Ryan up.I also understood Vian was doing it for Haze. He must have liked her a lot. That thought itself sent a million daggers towards my heart a few weeks ago but I guess I am sensitized to it now. Nowadays I could at least smile when I see them together. All thanks to Ryan.He is good at distracting me from my reality. We went out on dates a lot, and I always had fun when I was with h
I tried so hard not to move and preparing myself for the kiss but I couldn't do it. I turned my head slightly at the last second, making his lips touching the corner of my lips."I am so sorry," I said in a croaked voice. I felt so bad to the extent where I was on the verge of crying. I don't know why I can't do it. I want it, but I can't do it... it's like my body has a brain on its own.He didn't let me go immediately. He rested my head on my forehead. "It's okay. I am sorry. I shouldn't have rushed you." He apologized.I nodded my head 'no' since I couldn't form any words. I wouldn't feel so bad if he got angry instead of apologizing."It's just that you make me go crazy sometimes especially tonight. Looking at you in that dress..." he stopped before he could say anything and slowly released me."Let's go watch that movie." He grabbed my hand and pulled me to his bed.He played the movie and joined me on the bed cuddling me. For the first
FAST FORWARD 7 YEARSVian’s POVI was standing on the 24th floor, the roof of our company wearing a mandarin collar shirt and crisply creased dark blue trousers paired with a blazer of the same color. I threw my blazer on the wooden bench at the near corner since I was feeling stuffy in it. The wind was strong making my styled hair go wild. I was supposed to be at the photoshoot with my band members, but I didn’t know where to go to escape from my manager. I knew he will find me eventually, but I just have to get some air before that.I looked up at the sky and noticed a couple of moving clouds.“Did she send you? Do you have her message for me?” I talked to myself looking at them imagining that they would a
“Remember this, Ava. Remember I am your first and I intend to be your first in everything.” He said stroking my cheeks and took steps backward… further away after a kiss on my forehead.Have you ever felt like erasing something from your life? It was the one thing that you have wanted for your whole life yet when it’s in your hands you feel like abandoning it and run away. Something inside you keeps shouting at you to turn your back and walk away.That’s how I felt that night after Vian left my bedroom. I walked away to get to the door after begging him with my eyes not to leave. I looked back one last time before I turn the knob of the door somehow knowing that he wouldn’t be there. As expected I heard a loud thud outside my window and I know he is gone… just like that.“Hey, Aves.” Jay was standing in front of my door half asleep with disheveled hair. 
I couldn’t concentrate on anything else after that. My mind was a mess thinking about the events of last night and that morning. I was confused with my action and ashamed of myself.So I sneaked out of my school during the third period unable to withstand Ryan’s good mood and his questions about my low spirits. I just needed some space, from everything. Suddenly my life felt so stuffy.I wandered around the streets aimlessly trying to run away from my problems. I know they will catch up to me eventually, but I just needed this feeling to be free… however short it might be.I came back to school after hours once I know there will be no one at school. I sat under my favorite tree and started writing my journal to unfurl the complexity of my mind. I always felt like I could think clearly after I wrote everything in my journal.“I thought I would find you here.” I heard Rya
Finally, the day arrived, the day that my boyfriend and my best friends were looking forward to. The Interschool basketball competition. They are competing with our rival school, Hilton high school. Like I’ve mentioned before our school has never won for the past ten years but they have been practicing hard to win the cup this time.Vian and Jay haven’t talked to me yet. They’ve been avoiding me since that day using the excuse of practice for the game. I tried to convince them that it won’t happen again and apologized for it numerous times for what happened, but they still avoided me like I am an infestation.I know why they are angry. It’s not that I wasn’t there for the party but I forgot to spend time with my friends after I started dating Ryan and gave them the wrong idea that Ryan’s more important to me than them.I realized my mistake, and I have been trying to make amends since then but they are being stubbo
I have been thinking about what Hazel said to me. What did she mean when she said don’t trust Ryan? I was racking my mind to at least guess what she meant but nothing.Since the day Ryan and I started dating, he didn’t give me a single reason to doubt him. I thought he was always sweet and a gentleman. There is not one thing to point out something about Ryan to doubt as far as I know. He is a perfect boyfriend.But now as my mind was thinking all kinds of possibilities after I talked to Haze, I can’t help but think that what if he was just acting perfect. Jay and Vian warned me numerous times to stay away from him but I never once thought why. I always assumed that it was just because that they don’t like each other.We drove in silence to Jackson’s house where the party was going on. Ryan was drowned in his happiness of their victory, so he didn’t notice my change of mood or he let me be because he thought that I was upset ab
Vian’s POVI was so angry at Ava that night that I didn’t want to see her face anymore. How could she forget Grandma’s birthday? The fact that she forgot about it because of Ryan made me furious. Since she started dating, she’s been spending less time with me and Jay and I just missed her so much.I knew that she avoided me mostly because I was going out with Hazel but we weren’t really dating. It was just a ruse, and I couldn’t tell her that because Hazel made me promise not to tell her. It wasn’t my secret to tell anyone.When I was in a fight with Jay and was avoiding everyone including Ava, one day Hazel approached me. At first, she was just being nice to and invited to have coffee with her. I wasn’t interested, but I didn’t want to hurt her by rejecting her straight away.I tried to avoid it by giving her some excuse but she insisted on meeting her there saying that she has
I blinked a few times to adjust my vision and then I screamed noticing the person who helped me.“Jay!” I hugged him tightly in excitement without believing my eyes. I was relieved that at least Jay was there beside me even though my dad and brother couldn’t make it.“Do you think we would let you get married without dad walking you to the aisle?” I looked around hearing Damon behind me. Willie, Damon, and Dev walked towards me in their black suits and I couldn’t help but get overwhelmed watching them. Since the moment they have taken off the blindfold, it all felt like a dream.“I thought you guys aren’t gonna be there.” I wept like a crazy girl hugging my dad and my brother in elation. Weirdly, even when I was happy beyond words tears kept rolling down my cheeks.“Baby girl, you haven’t said anything about my masterpiece,” Dev said running his hands over my dress. I was surprised an
I was taking an evening walk with Vian towards our high school in the old town. The sun shone brightly on the western sky just before setting like it was ready to give the stage to the moon and the stars. We were walking in silence immersed in our thoughts.A day before, Vian suddenly barged into my office with Damon and took me with him hauling me away from my office without saying anything about where he was taking me and leaving Damon in charge of the company like he owned it.I was busy for the past two weeks, and I couldn’t even properly text Vian on those days. I was trying to finish a deal with a Chinese company that was interested in investing in our company. If I get that deal successfully then, I needn’t worry about paying Ryan’s dad’s debt in a year. With Vian and Jay’s help, I could pay him off within 6 months.I tried my best to refuse Vian and Jay’s help but they somehow convinced me. Jay told me that he was payi
“Seriously? You are still wearing that?” Vian questioned with a very upset look in his eyes. “I… I forgot about it.” I said feeling guilty and defenseless. “You forgot about it?” he asked me in a mocking tone. “It’s YOUR finger and YOU are wearing it.” He pressed the words pointing at my hand. “How could you forget something like that and it’s been two days,” Vian said with a menacing look. He was right, and I have nothing to say to that but I wasn’t going to stand there looking all guilty and go down without an argument. “Well, you were with me on those two days, why didn’t you say anything about it? You must have seen it at least once. You should have told me something before proposing to me.” I yelled back. It was the most absurd thing that came out of my mouth. “Oh, I am sorry I didn’t notice the ring in your finger because my concentration was elsewhere in your body,” he growled back without thinking. It took him a second to realize what
Two days. Vian and I ignored this world for two days without giving a fuck about anything and lived off only eating takeouts with little sleep and lots of sex. We didn’t pick up any of the calls we received on our phones. In fact, we forgot where we kept them. Sometimes in the middle of the night or in the early morning and sometimes, at late noon we hear them ringing but completely ignored it just for the fun of it.I used to worry about others than myself usually. If it was some other time I would have thought about how Willie and Damon would be worried without hearing from me for two days and on top of that I didn’t even tell them where I was going. To be honest I didn’t know where I was going when I walked out of my house.But the whole world faded away when I was with Vian those two days. I was madly, irrevocably in love
I am not sure if I did justice to Vian and Ava's love in this chapter but I do hope you guys enjoy reading it............................................................................“You did. But… You… My name’s written there… striking Ryan’s name… is this what I think it is?” he asked me.“Yes,” I said firmly. I was nervous about what he would say after everything happened.“But… But why? Last night you said… you said…” he tried to say something, but he couldn’t as he was hit with lots of emotions remembering last night’s events.“I am sorry,” I said as my voice croaked remembering the night… remembering how I hurt him with my words.“Why? What happened? What’s changed?” he bombarded me with questions as he was surprised by my change of heart suddenly.“I know wh
“Elena!” I was hit with surprise and confusion at the same time.“Your dad let me in.” She said with an awkward smile as she walked in and took a seat beside me on the bed.“I am really surprised to see you here,” I said hoping that she would understand the real meaning of my question. I wanted to know why she came to meet me.But she remained silent thinking about something, fidgeting her fingers. “Do you want anything to drink or something?” I asked her but she politely refused.“I heard you got engaged. Congratulations!” she said with a small smile. It didn’t feel like she was actually wishing me, though.“Thank you.” I said smi
Darkness.That was the only thing I could think of when I came to my senses. I have been awake since an hour ago or so, but I stayed in my bed without opening my eyes.Darkness. Sometimes it’s not just something that you only see when you close your eyes or in other words that you can’t see anything in the absence of light but you could also feel it when there is no light in your life.I kept my eyes closed to see the darkness clearly so that I didn’t have to feel it. It awaits just behind the veil of my closed eyelids to engulf me as a whole.I will have to open my eyes anytime soon and let it swallow me but I prolonged the inevitable just by staying in bed with my eyes closed, feeling content as my mind made up an illusion of peace.
Vian’s journal. Dear diary, I am gonna tell you a story about a stupid boy who sacrificed his love twice for his friends. To him, they both mean the world, and he would do anything for them even if it meant hurting himself. I was just a cheeky, naïve little boy when Jay and Ava came into my life. They both loved me regardless of who I was and cared for me like I am their family. In life, nothing can be quite precious in this world as your ideas and experiences to share with someone. Nothing can be more magnanimous than being an inspiration to someone. On that note, I know I must always be grateful to Jay who inspired me with his dreams and ambitions when I was just wandering around in life, and Ava who made me run towards my dreams. To someone who doesn’t know who his mother was and has a father who travels a lot rather spending time with his son, Jay and Ava were the dad and mom to me. Over the years, Jay bec
Jay’s Journal. Dear diary, It’s so hard for me to see Vian and Ava like this. I cannot watch them being in pain, hurting each other. Everything was my fault. If only I hadn’t fallen in love… with her, with my Ava, I could have prevented years of pain for the three of us. Yes, I am in love with Ava, and I have been for quite a while. I don’t exactly remember when I started to grow feelings for her, but I remember the times when I enjoyed her company so much. I crack jokes just to watch her laugh and I tease and annoy her to see her cute pouts. I thought it was just friendship for a while but then I realized I didn’t want to lose her to someone when I lost my mom. She always took care of me and loved me more than my family. I’ve always enjoyed the way she treated me special than others… than Vian. I guess I was just too late to realize that. When we moved to London, I started noticing certain changes with Ava and also V
