บททั้งหมดของ Between Then and Now: บทที่ 11 - บทที่ 20

It was a rainy afternoon. When I'm spending my time in my usual routine: reading inside the library."HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA REALLY BRO?! YOU MUST BE INSANE" "Ssshhhhhh" every student inside the hall hissed in chorus. I plugged my earphones and played my favorite piano piece which is the 'Tiger' "She's a nerd, bro! Don't tell us you're willing to hang out with a girl like that, HAHAHAHA" My focus was altered.One more time, bastards, I'll make you crawl out in this library."HAHAHAHAHA, YOU'RE A TOTAL IDIOT, BRYLLE---""Don't you know how to read? I think that signage was big e

I took another sip from the coffee on my mug. It's Saturday, the cloud bursted in tears. That's how life works at times, reminding that it's fine to break out, even the clouds cry when it becomes too heavy.I planted myself on a chair, raising both of my feet intertwined above the table with rapt attention on the view outside.I wiped the foggy window using my hand clenched into a fist trying to discern more of what's going on. Nothing, just grey things and shadows walking to and fro on the road. I stared a little longer and got tired of the grayness. I sat my mug on the table, vapor rising from the creamy liquid inside, creating a mist on the mirror.I bit my lip intensely, just enough for me to feel the faint pain, but I didn't care, my mind was busy searching for an

I followed the lead of Rave, she's holding the edge of sleeve down my wrist. I'm scarcely paying attention to the things around while captivated on fastly typing on the phone.The environment felt even colder right now.The conversation promised a temporary respite of time, courtesy of unclear vision of this man I'm talking at, we're currently trying to picture out what are the succeeding events after the gunshot, he pleaded for my help, I just can't say no now that I have this gut feeling that I can help him. But it seems like the main problem was he can't hold clear phantasm, making it harder for me to figure out what was the real case.I closed my eyes for more or less than three seconds to regain touch of the things that happened earlier.

"What's taking him too long?" I uttered while looking at the door. It's been almost twenty minutes but Kervin had not come back yet. In my head, I'm contemplating the possibility that he won't know the slip and turns around the campus because he's new in this place.Simultaneously tapping my hand on my lap and swaying my feet over the other, I can't steady myself. "This sucks!" mumbling as low as I could, I clutched myself to take a stand. I'll go get him. It's like I decided wrongly about commanding him to buy me something, ALONE. There's something in me that tells me that I have to make it quickly.Striding smoothly along the spaces between the chairs, my classmates moved aside to give me a broader way. 'Cool' I

I'm laid on the bed while bandaging the wound on my fist when I suddenly thought of opening Alyana's phone again. I fixed the materials I used to clean the wounds, it hurts but the pain was manageable, I don't regret having them anyway.I fixed myself in an Indian sit. The phone felt cold on my palm, I clutched it tighter to ensure a solid hold on it. "Where should I enter right now?" I ran my fingers to my chin, thinking further. I'm already glued in thought when, suddenly, a furry thing flew on my hand with its sharp nails shown, slashing thin lines on the mood. Its bright eyes are dilated establishing a fierce aura, it fled its paws as if hunting for a rat on my lap. "Just a hair pin, little one" I hoiste
