All Chapters of Love Over Gamble: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

I didn't even send him my reply when loud knocks coming from my door alarmed me. I got no choice but to dash all the way to open the door and a tired- looking face of a guy welcomed me. "M-Mezakiel!" He landed his hands on my shoulder. They were so heavy, he's lost all his energy but he still tried his best to visit me here. "Out of the way, I miss my couch!" he excused and pushed me a bit. I glared at him when he excitedly sat. Wow, he missed the couch, not me. I sat, parallel to him. Gosh, he's really exhausted. What did he just do after all those days that he's been piled up?! "Do you know how mad I was when you didn't even text me when I needed you?!" I complained. He just smirked! "Oh, I'm sorry about that. I didn't expect that I'll face worse problem." He even shrugged. "And at least, you survived even though I wasn't there to help you."Yes, he's correct. I handled my own self even if he wasn't there to just listen to my rants and when I needed his advice, his comfortation

"Spill, you're making me really curious," I blurted, leaning on my lap as we shed under a huge umbrella. "First, I want to apologize. You know? For those days of my absence instead of helping you," he replied and gave me a forced smile. My lips went open, Mezakiel's been very bothered with it. I told him that it's not a trouble to me at all, this time. I breathed out heavily. "You're such a pain, does it look like I'm still sulking about it until today? Get over it, and whatever was your reason to leave? I understand it." "That's the point. I wanted to tell you the reason why I wasn't there, helping you even if it's actually my job to be on your side." He added a fake chuckle. "My job on this gamble we participated in was so simple, simplier than yours but I could not even do it. But I at least want to tell you why I couldn't comply." My brows met in annoyance. I was surprised, actually? That he also had this kind of sensitive consciousness. That he's overcaring.I elbowed his arm

Seconds went faster when Maddison's far from Aspen and I as I was already stopped beside the waiting guy, on the car. All eccentricity's painted on my eyes when I kept staring at Maddison who successfully entered the Dining venue. "Hey, now. You came!" I shifted sight to Aspen when he suddenly tapped my shoulders. "Want to go somewhere else?" "What? What about the party? And, why are you with her? Where's Amanda?" My consecutive questions left him curious when his brows arched. Did I ask many? Or was my question about Maddison caught him? "Don't worry, let's count on Jasper from performing the song later. How about a dinner? The two of us?" My cheeks reddened, a sudden asking of date? Was that it? "And worry less!" Aspen added a chuckle. "I only drove Maddison here because we had a talk." "And what was your talk about?" I questioned, knitting my brows on him. Okay, what's my right to expect for a detailed answer and who was I to know their private conversation? Instead of givin

It's been three days straight that I've lost communication with him. Mezakiel explained me why we received this punishment saying Wren should have disqualified us but Mezakiel pleaded to spare the rudeness and mistake I did so he ended up giving us this kind of punishment. That's a huge pain, why would he get mad of my rudeness toward his when I reacted like that because of his annoying actions after all?! Added to it, Wren might've intentionally made me mad to lose my control and throw unpleasant attitude toward. So that he could do this to us, to Aspen. He wanted us both to separate so we couldn't make stronger closure. Come on! He really got some huge problem with his younger brother?! Even involving our friendship?! It's making me angry every time I think about it.But good timing, I could not actually have my time making a move to Aspen for the gamble because the arrival of the midterm examination day's too close. We both needed to focus studying and I know that he's also piled

Lately, I've been deciding to just avoid Aspen for now. It's for the better, it's not easy. It's not easy to let him ignore me at all. It's extremely hard to believe that the person who was just treating you like you're the best friend he have ever had suddenly became a stranger to you in a blink of an eye. The more I dive into this problem, the worse pain and overthinking I get. To the point that it's forcing me to approach his brother and tell him to stop it but I could not do it because I must not. I told to Mezakiel that we should not mind this suspension and gamble for now and just wait for Wren to stop the punishment but it's actually me who was being affected at all. After my schedule ended, I quickly went home because I needed to sleep and study for a bit. I closed my door and a loud thud disturbed the quiet room. I admit it, I expected Mezakiel to be here and talk to me because I admit it, I badly wanted to talk to him. I needed his voice, his words, his irritating face that
