Chapter 11

I felt like a complete zombie. I won’t understand why I bothered going to school. I would probably learn nothing by the rate I’m processing things.“Dude, you look like shit.” Dom exclaimed once he saw me going down the stairs. My clothes were ruffled, my hair was a mess and I’m pretty sure my face was pale and have bags under my eyes.“Yeah, I feel like it too,” I muttered to him. Monday is so not my day.Not soon after that, I was greeted by sweet Monic who had a look of pure horror. She didn’t even bother hiding it. “Case, are you sure you’re fine?”“Never said I was, Mon, never said I was.” I mumbled to her.Jake and Adam were eating breakfast in the kitchen and since Adam’s back was towards the door, he still hadn’t said anything, yet. But that soon ended when Jake started choking on his food. Adam looked at him worriedly and reached over the counter t

When class was over, I found a note in my locker.Football practice until 4. Sorry.–AdamOf course he got recruited in the football team. I mentally groaned and sighed in faint annoyance. Don’t get me wrong, I’m happy for the dude but I do not have a good experience with the football guys in this hell hole.I guess I’m doing my homework early then.I took a hold of the thick ass book for history and business studies. This is a pain in my ass, I mean look at these shits. Who in their right mind would even have the time to create a book this fudging thick?!I finally finished sorting out the things I wanted to bring with me to the bleachers and took my files out to shove in the papers I got from my lectures. Cue mental groan here. I’m so going to fail future tests if I don’t get my shit straight ASAP.It took me a few minutes after looking around that I realized it was quieter than usual and hushed tones were

Chapter 13

Adam pushed the door open for me and the second I stepped foot into the place, yells, cheers and shouts engulfed me.I tugged at the hoodie’s sleeves and shrunk back into its warmth, trying to seek comfort as adrenaline rushed through me at my familiar surroundings.I love this place but the fact that I’m not alone as I stroll through the place is bothering me.There’s a reason why I use a nickname in this place and do not associate with the people inside the building when I meet them anywhere but here.I stuck to Adam’s side, trying to blend in for once as we walked through the crowd. Adam was having a hard time finding his cousin and I was beyond anxious while Jake, Dom and Monic trailed behind us.I didn’t like her coming with but she finally wormed her way into a loop hole and got her pass. This place is anything but safe and I wouldn’t forgive myself if anything happens to my baby sister. She’s just

“Here are the rules,” He started, eyeing the three guys that I’m pretty sure were intimidating him but I shook my head, chuckling softly.“We’re out of the building and that means there are no rules, pretty boy.” You asked for it, you’re going to get it. “The only shit that’s going to happen is a deal. If I win, you and any associate of yours will leave me and my friends alone.” I told him in a firm voice, thinking about Monic. Jake better get her somewhere safe by now or I’m so going to castrate the shit out of that guy.“And if I win?” He prodded and I shrugged, hoping to come off uncaring about it.There was a 50/50 chance this guy can win judging from his built and how his eyes zero on my every move. This is going to be a tough fight.His eyes twinkled with mischief and something else that made the hair on the back of my neck stand up and the goose bumps decided to

Chapter 15

After parking my bike near the entrance, I trudged lazily into the warehouse, guided by Adam and the dim light of our phones. It wasn’t big and it looked pretty cozy to live in. It was easily as big as my living room back home.A couch was pushed in the far corner, covered with sheets and under it laid a carpet and nearby sat a mini wooden coffee table that seemed to be polished not long ago. Beside the couch was a lamp stand that was alight and on the other side was a mini fridge, plugged into a socket on the foot of the wall.Shelves and 2 other couches were placed across the room along with a counter with snacks and sachets of tea, coffee and other beverages. A few clothes were strewn here and there but aside from that, there was nothing unique about it.Monic ran towards me in a hurry and engulfed me in a bear hug before pushing me to arm’s length to start her inspection from my head to the tip of my toes for any wounds.“Je

Chapter 16

I woke up in the middle of the night, gasping for air as I shot up from the couch. I looked around frantically and tried to remember where we were. My heart thudded loudly against my ribs painfully and the blood rushed to my head.My hands were clutching the shirt covering my chest in a fist, trying to calm my ragingly beating heart.I finally managed to force myself to focus and reminisced what happened last night. Meanwhile, Adam, who apparently gave me some space to sleep and decided to sleep on the carpet instead, stirred awake and hummed in silence.After rubbing the sleep off his eyes, he sat and stretched, instantly wincing and held onto his back. He finally caught me staring and scratched the back of his head awkwardly. “Erm... Hey?” It came out as a question and I can’t help but give him a weak smile at the attempt he made.“Was it another nightmare?” He asked as I shifted and gave him room on the couch. He

Chapter 17

On Thursday, our school was holding a basketball match against a neighboring school and by noon, the gym was packed with students.The teachers were filing in along with janitors helping us carry chairs for the visitors which were mostly the students from the other school and a few parents; coming to supports the players.I took a seat among the other students from our school. I craned my neck to catch a glimpse of the players pouring in.The throng of people in front of me was blocking my view and I’ve been spending the past couple of minutes trying to search for that small hole between them that will allow me to see what’s going on.Adam’s not coming in today. He texted me this morning telling me that his mom was not feeling well and that he was going to have to take care of her.I offered to help him out but he turned the offer down and told me he was going to be fine so I dropped it and let him be.After that trip to the m

Chapter 18

It was finally Friday and Penelope just arrived by my house.I didn’t bother saying goodbye because the house was empty anyway. Monic was staying in the warehouse along with Jake while Adam was busy taking care of his mother.I grabbed the house keys and my purse before stepping out of the house and slipped on some flats.I don’t care who you are, ask me to wear goddamn heels and I will decapitate you on the spot.You aren’t my friend if you’re rooting for me to break my neck.I was dressed in an off shoulder white crop top and a high- waist shorts that ended on my mid-thigh. It showed just enough skin to not make me feel slutty or uncomfortable in my own skin.I strolled towards the pink bug that Penelope drove and slipped into the passenger seat.“Sorry to keep you waiting,” I breathed out as I placed my purse on my lap and folded my hand to keep them from fidgeting.“It’s okay,” Penelop

Chapter 19

I whirled back and my stare narrowed on the form that was staggering forward. It was dark and the only source of light was the dimly lit lamp post a few meters away.I squinted to see his face as he tripped on his own foot. His body posture was slumped and his movement was sluggish. My gut was telling me to run the other way and I was about to listen when another voice came from behind me.“Hey pretties."I jolted and rushed back to Penelope’s side, holding her hand and pulling her close, shielding her from them. I turned to the other party, watching their every move.In our right side, there was a group of 3 people that were sneering at us, taunting us. They looked pretty sober and I could feel my heartbeat pick up. My mind started calculations while my eyes flew from one side to the other, sizing them up.My eyes darted around our surroundings, searching for a quick escape.The second they came too close for my liking, I pulled Pe

Chapter 20

Hello, you’ve reached Penelope’s voicemail. I can’t pick up right now so please leave a message. *beep*“Uh... Hi, Penny, I know I’ve said this in the past 30 something voicemails I left but, yeah. I just wanted to make sure you’re alright. Call me back when you can, yeah?”I sighed before hanging up.I rubbed my face, trying to make the worry lines go away.I’ve been sitting on this same, worn out swing in the backyard of Adam’s house for the past 30 minutes, trying to reach out to Penelope. The others were waiting inside. They took a single glance of my ‘I am terribly anxious so you better not shit with me right now’ face and instantly saved their rants and questions for later.If anything happens to her...I shook my head, trying to push all my paranoid thoughts away. That can’t be healthy.I settled for staring off in the distance, wondering what the hell happened to m
