Semua Bab Mated to my Enemy : Bab 11 - Bab 20

TASHAMy mother has informed me that she will not be returning home for the rest of the night since she's working overtime at her job. As soon as she said those words, I exhaled a sigh of relief because I couldn't allow her to see my bruised feet due to what had happened earlier that day at the university. On the other hand, Sadie asked permission from my mom if she could sleep at our house, and my mother granted her request without hesitation. "Aw!" Suddenly, I was hit by a stinging pain in the area of my feet where Sadie was applying the ointment that she had purchased for me. I winced a little bit.I could hear her sigh. "I think you should tell your mother about your situation, Tash. Annica's getting worst day by day, and who knows what might come into her mind the next time that sh

TASHAAfter learning what Rendall had done this morning, I found it difficult to concentrate during our class. I'm at a loss because I couldn't figure out what he was trying to accomplish or why he was doing it. No matter how hard I try to hurt him with my words and even with my deeds, he won't give up. It's as if he's tied to where he's at right now, and he doesn't seem to desire to be anywhere else but with me.I kept on sneaking glances in his direction from time to time, but he never attempted to lift his head from the table. Until we ended our class, he didn't leave his seat immediately like the usual."Feeling guilty about everything?" Sadie asked while we were at the cafeteria. She sipped on her orange juice and placed it at the table afterward. "You know what, if there's one thing that doesn't have a limitation, it's the

TASHA What am I thinking? Why did I let him do that? I held on to my head, stressing myself out about what happened inside the infirmary. Nobody caught us in the act of kissing, but the main question that I've been pondering ever since I hit the right state of mind was, why did I let him do that? I could've pushed him away from me at that moment! Rendall stayed with me at the infirmary after that. He seemed not to be affected by what happened, and only I am making a big deal out of it. It wasn't the first time that he kissed me, but I had no other excuses to make up for the choice I made this time. Everything felt so wrong, yet a part of it felt right. If not only for the sudden arrival of Sadie, I would've drowned myself in embarrassment. My body jumped out a little when a sound of a metal tray hitting the glass table echoed just beside me. I looked at Sadie in disbelief. "You've been spacing out since we've left the infirmary. Did something happen between you and Rendall?" she

TASHA "You'll be partaking in a design contest alongside Rhio," my professor in Design and Decoration informed me when I got inside his office. I gander at the man situated before his work area and I saw that it was Rhio. "We needed a representative from our department and since the both of you have broader knowledge about various design styles, I have decided to pair you up with each other." I looked at Rhio and when his eyes met mine, I rolled my eyes at him. For an obscure explanation, he's making my head spin with rage. I couldn't help but question why he is being given preferential treatment even though he's a new student at our school. "It would be a tremendous chance for the both of you, and as a result, I am hoping that you can send me your responses as quickly as you possibly can. I will be counting on the fact that you will take me up on my offer—" Rhio cut him off. "I'm accepting it," he said without pausing for a moment. "That's great!" Our professor made eye contac

TASHA While Rhio was sitting on the opposite end of the bench, he handed me a bottle of water and said, "Here." I was able to catch a peek of his cheeks, and I noticed that he put a bandage on the wound on his face. None of us said a thing. When he was taking care of the wolf's body earlier, the only thing I could do was avert my look. After everything that took place, I'm still in a daze. I killed an animal with my bare hands, it's not something that I should be proud of. "I won't disclose anything about what happened," he broke the silence. "It's not my business to mind other people's lives so don't stress about it." "It was the very first time that I had ever done something like that," I confessed to him. I fiddled with my fingers to calm myself a bit but it was of no use. "I know," he said. "If you're used to doing something like that, you wouldn't tremble like how you did earlier. You appeared to be in complete shock." That's when everything dawned on me all over again.
