"Why did you bring me here?" I asked, staring at the wide forest park in front of me. The cedars' leaves with different shades of green made the place appear so alive. The leaves dance with every gust of the wind.I've seen the place once. Mommy and I once passed by here when I was just visiting her. I didn't have the chance to wander around, though. As what I've remembered, she told me it's Lynnwood's largest park."Because I think you haven't explored Lynnwood yet," Carter replied from behind me.After we went to the mall we ate at a café before he brought me here. Unlike before, I was no longer so scared of riding his motor. He did not fail to calm me down. I was calmed by that. There was something in his presence that told me I'd be safe as long as he's beside me. It was strange but somehow comforting."This is Lynndale park, about 40 acres with forest amphitheater, baseball fields, tennis courts, skate park and walking trails. I was thinking i

Although the warmth from his ironclad body was giving me comfort, his scent was very much distracting that I had to struggle not to lean closer to him."You should have just let me walk. I was only sprained, not paralyzed.""That would only delay the treatment. The hospital is near here, we can go there instead."I frowned. "I don't want to be in the hospital.""How come you're a nursing student, then?" His lips rose for a smirk, only very quick that I had to question myself if it really happened."Not as a patient, I mean."He stopped talking and went straight to where Diavel was parked. He drove so fast, I could only see the sides of the roads like a fast moving light. I can't even look at the trees around me. Though, I didn't feel scared this time. His entire presence was enough to make me feel safe.When he parked in front of our house, the door immediately opened just after a

When Carter entered the class, my eyes and mind were immediately focused on him. He was wearing the Med students' shirt, looking dazzling as ever. Though, he looked a lot more intense today. His emotionless eyes had not even once looked at me. He just stood there, talking in front coldly like I don't exist at all.He really stands by the decision. He don't want any connection with me anymore. He didn't want to talk to me or even look at me. He wants us to be a total stranger to each other, regardless of everything that happened. I could still accept his inconsistent treatment of me if I had done something wrong.But in our case, I didn't. I don't even understand him. For a minute, he would give me a hint of concern, the next moment he has another mood. He is like climate change, quiet unpredictable."He seems in a bad mood, what do you think?" Irish whispered.I shrugged. I know nothing about his personality disor

I thought his beauty beyond natural is only a coincidence, as well as his weird accent sometimes like he's from another time. I thought it was all just in my imagination that he could read my mind, and his eyes can glow or darken. Now, I know better. This is the truth. The part of reality which is beyond natural.For a minute, silence took over between us. His face was blank while staring at me so I can't say if he was mad or what. I just stared at him, waiting for him to speak. I actually have a lot of questions for him, but I decided to take one step at a time. I can't afford him losing his cool because of my nosiness of his supposed to be private life."What are you thinking?" He finally spoke, I can almost taste the disdain in his voice dripping like acid."I thought you could read minds?""I can," he admitted. I fight the urge to smile because he's starting to open up with me."Then why are you ask

"I heard from Helen that Jaxon is back. She said he decided to just study here. Have you two met?" Mom asked later that night."Yeah, I met him. He was in school," I answered while cutting onions. Mom and I used to do this when I visit her. She cooks while I assist her in cutting the vegetables and meats."Good that you have someone you know. Got some friends aside from him?""Well…" I don't really want to lie but I don't want to bother her with my situation in school, so I just said, "Yeah, I have a few. I'm still adjusting, so…" I shrugged and continued cutting the onions."That is good, then. You know, I was kinda worried that it would be hard for you to live here since there are a lot of adjustments to do. But I guess you are good so far." She nodded to herself and smiled while flipping the frying pan.I also didn't tell Dad whatever is happening to me here. The least thing I want is t
