Confused feelings I waited for him but he never came back. Sighing, I looked down on my wristwatch. It's ten o'clock in the evening and my stomach's grumbling due to hunger but I didn't mind it at all. I was eagerly waiting for that man but I guess that bastard ditched me. What the heck. I was startled when a few raindrops fell on my face. Looking up at the night sky, I wiped those drops away and sighed for nth times. "Miss Rishel, I think it's going to rain. Please take shelter under the tent first so you don't get wet," warned by the man who's passing by the parking lot. I smiled at him. "Thank you but it's okay." He scratched his nape and smiled wryly before saying goodbye. I just stared at his retreating back. It's good that it hasn't rained yet, but I knew that I shouldn't just stand here waiting for nothing. I took a deep breath and stepped forward, toward the way that Lyndon and the woman took earlier. I don't know why I'm feeling agitated imagining him with that woman.

That was the last time I talked with Jamaica. When we sat in each other's class, we didn't pay attention. Although there were some group activities after a quiz, we're not fated to be groupmates so we couldn't talk either. I didn't mind it though. People like her who like to control the emotions of other people to gain advantage for themselves were not suited to be with me. Or so I thought... When the afternoon arrived, I went straight to the waiting shed opposite the University gate and waited for my pickup. But, I've been standing there for several hours but still no one came. I called Gerard but he told me he was still taking Mama to the fishing port in the city. "Just take the jeepney, Joy." I looked up at the dark sky. "But it's raining, Mom. I don't have an umbrella." I raised my free hand and caught the raindrops from the roof of the waiting shed. I sighed. "Just call Pipoy. He might have returned home to El Grande." "Alright, Mom." I hang up and dialed Mang Pipoy's nu

Wrong call I sighed. I didn't pick up the phone because a guard already did that. "Just throw it away," I said as I entered the mansion. I lied down on the bed and thought of Lyndon's smiling face. Is that man happy that I cut ties with his cousin Kervy? My two eyebrows met. The next day, I entered the University for another set of exams. The result can be obtained on the same day so I got it by afternoon. When I receive the paper and saw the score, my eyebrow raised. "Eighty over hundred? From whom did you copy?" Reun asked suddenly when she glanced at my paper. I laughed at what she said and jokingly hit her on the arm. "You're really mean to me. I did study before exam, okay?" I said and rolled my eyes at her. "Study?" Her eyes narrowed, and she looked at me from head to toe. "Rishell, you're not the kind of person who reviews lessons." I looked at her for a few minutes before snorting. I don't really like to study lessons but since I failed the exam, I realized that I shoul

I couldn't save the merch I bought before. Fortunately, I hid the gifts from CLGF fans well so they were not burned along with the other merchs. Even though I wanted to stop the maids but I couldn't because Mama was there, looking like everyone's her enemy.I just sighed and looked at the dark sky.The wind was blowing hard and the rain was pouring heavily. I can almost feel the vibration in the handy umbrella I use. The field of the University is so wide that I have been having difficulty walking since the pathwalk is muddy. I'm afraid the doll shoes will get dirty and I'm going to receive another sermon at home.I shut my eyes and sigh again. The campus gate is still far away but the hem of my skirt is almost wet. I have no choice but to run to the campus gate. I don't mind about the splash of mud every time my shoes hit the wet ground."Here I come!" I whispered and took refuge in the waiting shed outside the campus gate. Finally arrived!I folded the umbrella and shook my skirt. M

My parents and the officer who questioned me talked for a while. I didn't inquire about what they had discussed because I was busy listening to Tiden's stories. I just smiled as he talked about his experiences lately, especially the preparation for their upcoming concert in Bohol.After a while, the officer approached us. My parents weren't with him so I think they were busy talking to the doctor. The man closed his eyes. "Many crimes have occurred in the paddy field in Baranggay Masulob-on. Just last night, the precinct received a report. Two women were raped."I looked down. The truth is that I don't know why the officer was talking about that but I breathed a sigh of relief knowing that the police knew what was going on in that area. Fortunately, I ran away from the covered court last night and didn't let the drunk men lay their hands on me. I may have become a victim of evil intentions."What are your plans for the place, Sir?" I asked and played with my fingers."We'll continue o
