Chapter 91: Maybe That's the Case

"You want mango shake?" Janice asked.We just finished our classes and we passed the new cafe near the school. Janice wanted to eat ice cream but I insisted on trying something in the café. But now, I don't think I can drink anything anymore. Coldness spread all over my body. My mind went blank.If only a few years had passed when I saw that, I wouldn’t be hurt like this. I wasn't dumb. Gossips about my mother, Priscilla Escareal, having multiple affairs with different man hurt. I ignored what I heard because I believed Mommy couldn’t do that to us. But to see her with my own two eyes was too much. It's only been almost two months since Daddy died!"Audrey, what about you?"Tears pooled my eyes. I was forced to sit on the bench outside the cafe. When Janice saw my tears she approached in a panic."Why are you crying? Did I say something wrong? Don't you want to be here anymore?"I cried even more."I saw Mommy, Janice!"With a cheap man, she went in with a car and drove to somewhere e

Chapter 92: Impulsive

"What do you want, Miss Escareal?" the saleslady in the cafeteria asked."Chicken meal and mango juice," I replied while glancing at Janice. "What about you?""Beef steak meal. Soda as well."I paid after giving us the order. We were back at the table when I saw a grade ten just entering. Just a short distance away, I recognized him immediately. Her eyes scanned the cafeteria briefly. He stopped looking at me. Now that I'm in grade eleven, I'm used to talking about Mommy. This time, she's having an affair with a married man again. I was not surprised by that."Drey, Hanna is coming," Janice said."Let her be," I said indifferently and put my tray down the table.Hanna angrily stopped across from our table. I did not turn to him."You thick faced bitch! Are you happy that your mommy is ruining the family, huh? And you're not satisfied yet! You've really seduced my boyfriend! You're both like your mommy's snatcher!""Don't even start a mess here, Hanna!" and Janice.How many times have

Chapter 93: That Dark Stare

“Negroni is mine, not pineapple juice,” I told Enzo. "That's too strong for you, Drey." "What? It's just a cocktail!" "Did you know you're not allowed to order liquors here? You're still a minor." "Oh, cut the crap. I'll be eighteen by the end of the year. I'm only sixteen, I've been drinking worse than that. Don't baby me, Enzo. I'm not a child anymore." She sighed. He glanced at the back and pointed the table next to mine. Later, Rustov's group approached. I face those with him, but I don't really know about their names. A man almost dropped his glasses when I looked. I craned my neck a bit and looked at Enzo lazily. "What now, Enzo? Bring me my Negroni. Or what about I try another one? Do you have Death in the Afternoon here? Aunt Roberta?" Enzo rubbed his forehead. "Didn't you think you weren't too brave, Audrey? You just drank that pineapple juice!" "Okay," I said and stood up. "I'll just go to somewhere else, after all you can't give me what I want." "Audrey!" I turned

Chapter 94: Intensity

"Your driver hasn’t arrived yet?" Janice asked. We were in front of the gate and he had just arrived to pick us up. She was looking at me worriedly. I knew he didn’t want her to be the first to leave especially and something happened. She knows me too well I always have a hard time deceiving her. He knew very well what I was doing."You go first."Her eyes narrowed. "Are you sure? I'll just wait for your driver to arrive.""Edu texted that he’s still fixing the tire. You might get scolded if you take too long, so you should go first.”"Fine. Just go home, okay?”I nodded.Actually, I intentionally texted Edu not to pick me up. I don’t want to go home because I’ll just remember what Mommy was doing. I am out of her filthy doings, but why am I also affected? I was disgusted and wanted to speak ill of him. If only not because of her, I wouldn't have to deal with these shits.I looked at the hand with the bandage. I got it bad this time, huh?I took a deep breath and ran my fingers throug

Chapter 95: Unwanted Help

"Let me go," I demanded."You fought before. Are you going to fight now? Is that your hobby, huh?""None of your business!"With his hard grip I did nothing when he pulled me away from there. We stopped in front of the parked cars and he just let me go. I could no longer see Klyde from there."You shouldn't be very impulsive," he said sternly."I don't need your opinion about my actions. I'll do what I want!""And where will your stubbornness pick you up? He was on the verge of hitting you!""I hope you just let it go, then. You think I'm too weak and I couldn't take it? Then you're wrong! I can handle myself!""Really, huh?" he challenged, there was a diminution in the way he looked at me."Why are you interfering? It's not because you're my friend's cousin that you can scold me! You're not my brother, Rustov!"He closed his eyes tightly and wept bitterly. He sighed deeply after a short while and looked at me darkly."It's getting late, go home."I glared and turned my back on him. I

Chapter 96: Can Hardly Remember

The last time she called, which was some days ago, she told me she's pregnant with their second child and she was so happy about it. I would have said that about what I found out but I restrained myself because I know it’s delicate when pregnant. I don't want her to have a hard time during pregnancy.Ate Diana:Why didn’t you say you fought last week? If I hadn’t asked Janice about you, I wouldn’t have known. Call me if you have time later tonight.I sighed and hid the phone in the small sling bag.After glancing at Enzo who's now talking with someone at the bar counter, I sipped on my mango shake. If before I was light -hearted, now I am not. I pitied my sister. Mommy is to blame for a lot, but why are Ate and I always affected?Ate's dream was to be an architect.

Chapter 97: Almost Burned

I picked up the cellphone and texted Kuya Edu, ignoring the ending game. With just the cheer of the crowd, I didn’t even have to look at the scores. "Are you going home then?" I asked Janice. "Yes. I already texted our driver. But let's greet Ramsey first," he said softly as if I wanted that too. The people have already left. Others stayed and approached the field itself to congratulate the winners. I held on tightly to the strap of the hat bag me by Janice. He collided with something else and seemed to know, but when he saw me he immediately backed away. I looked at the surroundings. Everyone is busy. The players were sweaty and still had a bit of fun. Some of the Albeda players even congratulated them. Kirk happened to see me. He waved and called my name loudly, so most looked at me. Fortunately, Janice took advantage of the situation to get her cousin's attention. Rustov was wiping away the sweat as we approached. His eyes drifted to his cousin, then to me, which took a bit lo

Chapter 98: Had Enough

Aunt Gracia made me sit down. I even saw Rustov’s friends. Bon, Lukas and Jethro are at the same table with a few female kabatch. He also has a few relatives on his mother's side. The adults were drinking and videotaping.All I hear is laughter and excitement. It's not like every time we attend parties that are all about business. I realized their life is really different from ours. The simplicity and happiness can easily be seen.Coming out, Rustov was called by friends. But instead of going there and sitting down he went to the big table and got some food. Holding a plate and a glass of juice, I was surprised when he went to me after."You should eat," he said after pulling a chair."Thanks," I said, glancing at his friends who were also a bit surprised at what he did. The girl with a brown hair stared at me darkly."Is that your girlfriend?" I asked, chewing."Huh?"He traced my line of sight. I turned to her and she immediately turned her eyes back to me as well."She looks at us

Chapter 99: Celebration

"Is Thiago busy too?" I asked Rustov as our staff unloaded the leathers.He nodded. "Every summer and there are only occasions when they come home."Well, I've heard of that. His two siblings are both studying in Manila so he only came home once. I've known those two since I was a kid. As often as seen at social gatherings. When they were in high school, they left Manila for maybe a bigger university."Let's go to the office first. I prepared a snack," I said and glanced at the workers."Okay," he replied low.“Ate Dulce,” I called. "You're here first."She nodded. I was ahead of the walk. Some of our female workers drifted their eyes at my back. I knew immediately what they were looking at. I was about to tell them to focus on their works, but I restrained myself. I might just look worse.Entering the office, I gestured to him the chair. There is food ready on the small table in the middle."I thought your Mommy was going to meet me," he said as he sat down."Same as I thought it wou

Chapter 100: Your Fault

I was about to walk when he suddenly grabbed my forearm and accompanied me across the road. I turned to him and watched how he watched both sides of the street while holding my wrist gently.He just let me go when I stopped at the lined food stalls in front of the plaza."Have you had dinner yet?" he asked.About that. I forgot earlier because I annoyed him. Now I just remembered.His gaze deepened without me saying a word."You didn't, did you?""I had a snack at the factory! I'm not hungry, so I forgot about it ...""And you even planned on drinking ..." His stare intensified. I was a little scared."What's the big deal about it, anyway? One more thing, it's not new to me."His chest moved up and down. The shock deepened on his forehead as if there was a big problem."I just really forgot today because I was mad at you! So it's your fault!"He shook his head."Why are you so stubborn, Audrianna ..." it sounded more like a soft plea than a question.My hair stood on end the way he me
