Chantria“Chantria…”I heard dad's soft and tired voice from behind me. But even so, I still didn't take my eyes off Chanel.Why isn't she waking up? Did something happen to her that I don't know about? Did she gain something deep because of what happened and dad just doesn't tell?"You need to eat or drink something. You'll drain yourself.”Instead of confronting and answering him, I said, "Why isn't Chanel waking up, Dad? She needs to wake up. I will only eat when I see her eating too. I won't be able to swallow the food, thinking that Chanel hasn't eaten anything yet. I won't forgive myself if anything happens to her too because of me."I heard him sigh before placing the tray containing the food on the side table of my bed. I can't even look at what's inside. He pulled out another chair and placed it next to me.Before speaking, he made me face him so I couldn't do anything but take my eyes off Chanel. "You need to stop this, Chantria. Do not punish yourself for what happened. It'

ChantriaBecause of Chanel's rage and crying, I voluntarily left the room. I asked dad to place me in a different room. And even though he hesitated, he didn't do anything to persuade me.He said we should calm down Chanel's anger first. But I know, this time, that her anger won't stop anytime soon. The only thing that can stop her anger towards me is if Carleigh comes back. And I wish she would.I don't know what to do without her. I don't know if I can live without her. I love her. I miss her. And I can't imagine a world without Carleigh in it.While lying in my hospital bed, I couldn't help but overthink. What if I'm the one who died and not Carleigh? Maybe everything would be okay for them, especially for Chanel. She really should inherit the company. She also has a dream that she can do any time after inheriting dad's company. Even though she is old, she can still do that.What about me? I don't even know what to do with my own life. Even if I don't inherit dad's company, it's no

ChantriaDuring the whole flight, I tried to sleep. But every time I close my eyes, the things I think about would bother me. There are just too many things messing with my mind.That's why I put my earphones in my ears and just listened to the music. I just looked out the window while on the plane. My flight will be about fifteen hours, so I distracted myself by listening to music, reading, and playing on the phone.The guy next to me slept for almost the entire flight. I can't help but feel envious. I hope I can also sleep like that. Since the incident, I haven't had a good night's sleep.When I looked in the mirror, there were eye bags under my eyes. But instead of paying attention to that, it's as if it doesn't bother me anymore. I'm also to blame for why I look like a panda now. When Chanel sees this, she will definitely tease me again.I stopped what I was playing when I remembered her.There is no one to tease me anymore. I can’t spend time with my family every day. And that's

ChantriaWhen I got out of the car, I faced Iwatani. He frowned again while looking at me. I guess I need to get used to it because this one looks normal. I couldn't help but remember Joaquin from him. The difference is that he is mestizo and this one is brown."We haven't formally met," I said to Iwatani before extending my hand. "I'm Seanne. And you are?"He looked at me very coldly. It's as if his every gaze penetrates. This one is not serious as dad said. He is grumpy."I know. You already know my name. You don't need to introduce yourself and so do I. I'm here to watch over and protect you, not to make friends."My lips parted because of what he said. I couldn't believe what I heard. He's rude!"It's not like I want to be friends with you! I just want to get to know each other because from now on, whether you like it or not, we're going to be together. If you don't want me to get to know you, then fine! Well, don't." I couldn't help but snort. No one has ever been rude to me like

ChantriaI think I've been balding the grass in my yard all morning because of that man. How can I understand what he wants to say if he doesn't speak? I'm not a fortune teller!His behavior is irritating. Very different from the behavior of his mother and father. Just a little more and I’m going to be convinced that he’s adopted.After having lunch, Aling Tryna knocked and brought me food. I shyly accepted a bowl of pickles before letting her into my house."You shouldn't have bothered anymore, Aling Tryna." I made her sit on the sofa. "I can survive on the canned goods I bought earlier at the store. I'm not picky with foods.”"What are you saying? You should not get used to eating those preservatives. It’s not good for your health. And then Iwatani actually cooked a lot to give some to you. Even if he doesn't say it, I know it's for you."Something kicked in my stomach because of what I heard. "Iwatani cooked for me?"“Yes. Sorry for my son. He is really rude even when he was just a

ChantriaOnly then did I stop walking and take a deep breath. I didn't pay attention to Iwatani who was just looking at what I was doing.I know that he has a lot of questions right now. It's either he didn’t want to ask or he just didn’t care about what he witnessed. It was better because I didn't want him to ask more questions. Maybe what happened in the past was just a relic. I didn't want him to see me weak every time I talk about what happened."Let's take a rest," he said. "We can go on tour another day."I immediately nodded. Honestly, I should have asked him to come home earlier. The campus was too wide and I admit I was tired. I'm not fit enough to continue touring. And one more thing, I still had a lot of time to tour the campus even though it was already school days."Anyway," I said, "are we classmates?" We started walking to the parking lot. We were just next to each other and there was a little distance between us."Yeah."I nodded. "I still thought I had privacy in the

ChantriaIwatani took me outside even though our houses were just next to each other. According to him, it was already dark outside. And as long as I'm out, he has to watch me all the time. I just shrugged and let him go because he had a point.When we arrived in front of my house, I faced him and thanked him."It's my job to protect you, Seanne. No need to thank me."I just snorted. If he said so. But why my chest tightened because of what he said, I had no idea. "Thank you very much anyway. Then thank you for the delicious Sinigang. You can get married now," I joked.He frowned because of what I said. "I have no intention of getting married even though I know how to cook. That is not the basis of whether or not you can get married."My mouth dropped open and I looked at him in disbelief. "That was a joke, Iwatani."He cleared his throat. "I know.""No, you don't. You know, sometimes it's nice to talk to people. Try it.""What do you mean?"I raised an eyebrow at him. "Talk to us mor

Chapter 18

ChantriaI'm so bored listening to our adviser and the rules to be followed in class. He just kept saying it over and over as if we were elementary students who couldn't understand right away.Not to mention, what he says is what we as his students are really expected to do, so why do we need to repeat it again and again? I couldn't do anything other than sit down at my desk and stare into nothingness."Listen," Iwatani whispered."I already know what he's saying. Aren't you bored? We should have started class. Time is wasted."Iwatani just sighed and said nothing. He was the only one who listened for the two of us even though I know he's heard it over and over before. I don't understand the need to listen to this all the time. Almost all the following subjects said this.I turned my attention to the man whose name I just learned. Since the two transferees and I introduced ourselves in front, I found out that he was Gab Guanzon.I just raised an eyebrow at him because I noticed that h

ChantriaIwatani was called into the office when we were in the middle of class. He didn't say why but I didn't bother asking him. He just glanced at me again before closing the door to our room.I just sighed and started taking down notes. We had an activity earlier so that we could find out what we already know about this subject. Now he was starting to teach.After the lesson, he ordered the vice president, which is me, to bring our notebooks to his faculty to check the activity. To my surprise, Gab volunteered to help me. At first, I should have appealed. But when he had almost all the notebooks, I couldn't do anything. Our teacher didn't oppose it either.I didn't mind if someone helps, but I was having second thoughts because it was Gab who volunteered. Maybe later I would be showered with harsh words again. This time, I would protect myself, though. I'm ready to slap him just in case.When we got to the faculty of our mathematics teachers, we looked for Ma'am Teresa's cubicle.

ChantriaWhen we arrived at the gym, there were a lot of people. According to him, many people come here in the afternoon. In the morning, there were only a few. After all, our class is at ten o'clock, I told him it's fine with me if we just go in the morning.That's better because I can't spend the night here. I'd rather wake up early than sleep late."Stretch your body first," said Iwatani. "Then you lift light weights. First, we need to warm up your body. When was the last time you lifted?”I didn't know how he knew I was lifting but I didn't ask. "Three or four months ago?" I answered questioningly."Really?""Yeah, I know. It's been a long time since I stopped. I thought it won't be useful anymore.” I just shrugged because I know it was my fault. No need to rub it on my face."Okay. We'll start from scratch. Let me know when you're done so I can guide you. I'll just talk to Coach Jay."I watched him as he jogged towards the owner of this gym. He’s also a coach here and it looks l
