20. Behind The Mask

A radiant glow welcomed their sight the moment they left the Coffee House. The rays which caress their covering were very visible. Their soles had a stroll towards the terminal and waited for a bus to halt. The dames had their conversation along the road, Sullivan could not get over the frappe tea she ordered, its savory juice with the miscellaneous frost which cools her mouth had its way to give her a chilling disposition. Further than that, Leo on the other hand, let out a wide smile upon enjoying the company of her colleagues. Hiking forth to the location, Fuentes could not help herself but be anxious all of a sudden. "I don't know how to react, to be honest, I can't even imagine that she's able to hurt someone. Astrid is innocent," Fuentes stated, they selected a seat and stayed at the waiting shed. "Well, she is. Probably the cops condemned her, she always gets into trouble, her neighbor once accused her of killing a guy named Kobe Ethan. I didn't believe it, of course, but so

21. The Best Thing That I Ever Did part 1

Stillness filled the four corners of the room as everyone discerned who would enunciate first. Their eyes travel forth in his direction and watch him surveying the files before his sight. Lounging in his swivel chair, he glimpses at them, with his glare. Upon beholding the details from the records, he let out a sigh and pinched the bridge of his nose. "What do you want me to say about this?" He spoke, and his hoarse voice echoed in the room. He lightly brushes his hair with the tips of his fingers and takes another glimpse of the folder before his eyes. "I dislike the occurrence." He continued, he threw a glare in her direction and her lips parted upon seeing his disgruntled complexion but it didn't lessen the captivating aura he has, the lady on the lab gown bit her lower lip and placed a gaze on him. "You should have done something to prevent this, Hyra." He asserted and leaned over his seat. She remained at her seat, quiet. Yet the moment she saw him glaring at her, a sigh esc

22. The Best Thing That I Ever Did part 2

The breath of air dashes into the lush leaves and they dance along with the singing birds, chirping, lounging in the trunks. The subtle prom of the pretty blossoms had its grace along with the grasses. Dorothy Scott smiled upon witnessing the refreshing scenery of the hospital's yard. The recent smell of the view that's about to behold opposes the expected scent inside the building. "You like the view, didn't you?" She asked and a gentle laugh pulled out of her mouth. Mace Leo narrowly nodded. She watches the sun rays as they scramble the clouds. "You must have enjoyed this area? I can see that genuine smile of yours," she added, which made the lass shrug off with a shy smile. "I met my older brother here, and this place somewhat created an impact on me. I made three paintings of this garden, do you wanna see it?" She glances at Leo momentarily before unleashing a sheepish smile. "Painting has been my favorite when I was a kid, I used to sketch too, I often shade whenever I am unha

23. Lonely Vacation

"How's the day going?" Kendall halted from walking upon hearing the voice of Maxwell Ross. She twitched her lips before turning back at him. The lass doesn't like him around, she despises the lad's presence. "Obviously, Ross. You see that I'm stuck in this fortress, don't expect me to appreciate the plain tiresome dusty walls around the four corners of this mansion." She replied and glared at him. As a response, he smirked. He stepped forward and held her hand, making her flinch in pain because of the wounds she got the moment Lucas chastened them. "What are you planning to do, bastard?" She firmly uttered when she sensed that he's about to lean closer to her. He let out a heavy breath, glancing at her with a serious complexion. "I wouldn't do it in the first place, Kendall but Lucas wants me to execute the punishment." He explained, trying to convince her."Forget about it, it's done, okay? What are you doing here anyway? I thought you're with Rutledge?" She pushes him with frail

24. Heartless Esme

The wind blows as it wishes, and the leaves dance along with its flow. Voices echoed on the building's corridor as their feet created a marching sound on the tiled floor, and the Castrill's students began to walk, leading themselves to their restricted classrooms. The gloomy atmosphere of the hallway creates a negative impact on the students' moods. Renesmee Fuentes, standing by their room's doorway as she waits for their class adviser. She sighed and took a glimpse of her watch, "It's already nine o'clock, she's taking so long." She mumbled. "Hey, Esme…" a lady with blonde hair went inside the classroom and greeted her, as usual, she's wearing her diamond necklace which makes anyone feel envious. Fuentes watched the young lady as she walked inside, heading to the middle row. Her eyes followed her dazzling jewelry. 'Now that looks so beautiful.' She mumbled to herself and yet she averted her gaze from her when she saw the lady throw a glimpse right in her direction. Trying to cover

25. Saving Sullivan

"What do you usually imagine if you hear the word prayer?" A genuine smile let go of her lips as she asked a question to the crowd. Their gazes were all focused on her and as she stood before them, all they felt were amazement, astonished by what they were giving attention to. "Who wants to volunteer themselves to answer?" She once more asked, and no one spoke, afraid to respond with a wrong explanation. "Let's not be timid when it comes to conversing a word, we're talking about God here and that simply means that everyone should be participating and glorifying His awesome Name because He has given us the ability and wisdom to think and speak." She added and once again, she let out a chuckle and proceeded with her introduction. "So, for today's topic, we will be going to talk about prayer. Does anyone know what exactly prayer is all about?" She spoke and gaze at the crowd, seeking for somebody to be able to answer her question. "Uh, I think prayer is when we utter what we want to

The morning breaks into the window frames and the arrays of heat dashes into their covering. The lass yawned as she gawked her eyes on the ceiling, she gazed at the lady beside her and poked. "Hey, the morning's breaking in!" She carelessly shoved the mate's shoulder and let out a chuckle upon seeing her snort."It's Wednesday, we have to attend our physical education class!" Kyaellani Sullivan asserted and poke the sleeping beauty beside her, seeing Mace peacefully asleep, she got up from the mattress and led her feet toward the glass window, closing the curtains. Yet before she could even do it, her eyes caught the beautiful sunrise. "What beautiful scenery," she muttered and cheerfully smiled, Sullivan stretched out her arms and gradually shook her head. "It's time for a coffee," she mumbled and jumped her way to the kitchen area. "What have we got here?" Helping herself up, she searches for something to eat or drink on the kitchen cabinets and checks the fridge as well. "I can'

27. When We're Alone

The next day, Renesmee Fuentes quietly sat on her seat near the window and gaze beneath the school ground, observing the other students strolling on the fields whilst some had their bondings with their friends. Rumors and gossips began to spread on the entire school campus and the workers are afraid, she put on her earphone and her dazzling earrings which are golden coated had their perfect show off, upon deciding to listen to certain songs she mostly likes to hear, she often reason it out as a nice thing to do whenever she appears to be avoiding all the murmurs which surrounded her. She took a glimpse on her stainless steel silver crystal watch and looked at the time, "Perhaps I won't be attending my work this lunchtime, I'll do it in the evening." She mumbled and took a notebook from her bag. She springs to write something into her notes and reads it right after. Unable to focus, she erases her writing jot and jots down all the ideas that keep on bothering her. As her hand guides

Her fingers gently touch the tip of the needle as she puts up with a hem of fabric on the bedside, prepared to stitch the garment of her doll, she simply travels her hands as she concentrates to prick the needle on the yarn to stick the top of it. "Now, it's perfect…" She commented as her eyes browsed in the figurine she created. "That looks so adorable, Astrid!" The lady got off the bed and hastened her feet towards the couch and witnessed how Astrid Hawthorne stitched her puppet. She flashes a smile and with a calm heart, she places the figurine on the small wooden furniture in the center of the room. "It is," "Have you sewed it from last night? I peek on your bed and I saw you crouching while mumbling something," Dorothy Scott asserted and gazed at her pal's countenance. "... I tend to not waste my time, I feel so limited." "Really?" Her stares peered on the lady before her as she took a black notebook under the pillow, with curiosity, she attempted to take a peek at it but H

29. A Day With Mace Leo

She feels the softness of the mattress as she tightly hugs the pillow on her arms, the wind blasting the window as a strong rain springs inside the window frames, causing the curtains to moisten. Astrid after perceiving that the rain slowly soaked the blankets, widely opened her eyes and got up from the bed. "What is wrong with the weather today?" She whispered and peered at the curtains to behold what had gotten outside. "What time is it?" She roughly steps on the footing and rushes her way toward the living room, ignoring the presence of the young lady who is peacefully sleeping at the bed and she drifts her sight to search for the clock. "It's six in the morning," she uttered and let her heavy body lean on the couch, she tightly closed her eyes and attempted to relax herself yet the downpouring of the shower distracts her. "What else should I do here?" Astrid muttered and continued to think as she shut her eyelids, she proceeded to feel the cold atmosphere and the noise of rain b
