All Chapters of The Brightest Shadow: Teenage Days: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

[ Late Night At The Park Mansion! ]“She came back really early tonight. Or is it that Mrs Lee did not keep her word? What will I say to her…?” An agitated Travis who was nervously entwining his fingers together as he flew down a trail of shimmering stairs, silently huffed, whilst his lips slightly trembled as he thought of words to speak to his grandmother. It was already past eight thirty pm and his grandmother had called for him — he was scared because that was the first thing she did as soon as she walked in the house from work. Travis could feel his legs become numb, his system was evilly paralyzed by fear — all that he could think of was Mrs Lee's warning to him. His grandmother usually came home around eleven pm. What if Mrs Lee told Mrs Park everything?The boy simply knew what would happen if that was the case, if Mrs Lee opened her mouth about what happened earlier today at school. Right there, Travis kept hoping and praying for a way out — he was terrified for God's sake.

The time for exams was arriving — little by little, the week quickly came. Everyone was busy preparing for the exams — they even went out of their comfort zones and dared to extend their time at school, staying behind and doing revisions. Travis and David were among those who wanted to go beyond. The boys had swiftly forgotten about an incident that took place four days ago — at least David still kept it within the chambers of his heart and he was quietly investigating whatever that he witnessed. It was no longer a problem for Travis because for some reason, his grandmother gave him full permission to stay behind to study and promised that she would talk with Mr Sok. The two boys were alone in the art room, their usual place. They have been studying mathematics since it was announced that it'll be the first subject they are going to open the examinations with. “...and don't forget to always check your numbers more than once, just to be sure of your answers.” David, who was sitting a

“Ahh! Calm down, dear heart! Always take a deep breath in and then out when pressure begins to overwhelm my spirit.” Travis, who was seated quietly in a classroom that was enveloped by a blue code of silence, pacified himself soon when he felt his hands begin to tremble. His eyes were trained on the watch that was loudly ticking on the wall. There were ten minutes left until the examination began and he could already feel his muscles tighten as his chest heaved with uneasiness — the boy was nervous. “Whatever that happens, give it your all and don't let pressure break the bones of your brain. Fight and never say never.” Rushing back in his head, Travis whispered the words that David had said to him last night during a phone call. The boy closed his eyes and for some reason, his head decided to teleport his being back when he unintentionally eavesdropped on his grandmother as she was whispering words to Arthur. “...! I know but he has to pass! He must, it doesn't matter if it is not

[Kiss Me Harder, I Won't Run, I Promise!]The whole building was overwhelmed by blue and red piercing lights that luminously swam in the atmosphere, mischievously travelling across the whole place whilst rudely exposing people who tried to hide their evil deeds — a few of them, of course not many liked how the light approached them. Loud, deep house music vibrantly and unceremoniously punctured into the ear chambers of those inside who were lost in the rhythms of each beat. Everyone had to shout their lungs out whenever they spoke to their companions. One would see that as an unhealthy thing to even look at or want to experience, however, that did not matter to the people in the luxurious club. It wasn't very hard for Travis and David to find the group. As Kevin had mentioned in their chat group, the rest of the group was sitting at the furthest table, away from the many eyes of people. “You are ten minutes late! What took you so long?” Upon landing her eyes on the tall figure of Tr

“You are not going anywhere tonight! I won't let you run away again!” Sean who was grinning whilst his eyes were glistening with glee, spoke as he carefully took careful, menacing steps towards David. David — he frowned, definitely not because he was afraid, but of course, confused. “What do you…want, Sean?” The boy huffed soon when folding his arms across his chest that was leisurely heaving. Right there, Sean threw out a soft yet slightly rumbling chuckle that echoed evilly throughout the room before making a mischievous float in David's ears. “No, David. That question belongs to me! I should be the one to ask you that very question: What do you want?” Sean hissed while his face was being enveloped by a smirk that sent chills all over David's system. “I mean, instead of spending the night with Travis, you're here after you made it clear that you don't want to see me again. Or is it that you miss “us” too much? What? You just can't handle it yourself? The truth does bites but at le
