ASTRAAfter breakfast, we decided to rest and take a nap for a moment before touring around the resort. We didn't get enough much sleep last night, and even on the plane, so we're gonna take this time to lay down for a bit. I woke up two hours later, almost twelve in the afternoon. Sirius was already awake when I stepped out of my room. He's on the couch and browsing on the television, legs crossed together while wearing a simple dark gray sweatshirt. Just that, and nothing else. His upper body was fully exposed to my eyes. I gulped and quickly looked away, my mind is short-circuiting at the view of his abs and muscular arms."It's twelve. Wanna head out for lunch?" He spoke up as I heard the plastic remote resounded on the coffee table in front of the couch."I'm not hungry yet.""Oh, gee! Don't tell me you're actually serious with that diet shit? That's ridiculous!""What's so ridiculous about wanting to stay fit?" I looked at him again and glared, trying my best to focus on his f

ASTRA (flashback part 1)I crossed my legs together as I remained sitting stiffly on my armchair, silently observing my classmates who are all excited for tomorrow's school activity: Art and Science Fair.And then I looked at the Prada bag perched up on the other chair just beside me. Of course it's mine. And then there's another empty chair just beside it. Nobody actually sits in this row aside from me. I love it here, actually. Away from the big board and the teacher. Nobody's speaking to me as I initially don't get along well with anyone. It's currently homeroom and we're told to use this time to finalize our class presentation for tomorrow. I didn't really understand what they were trying to create so I didn't bother participating anymore. And even if I try to give my own ideas, they wouldn't let me. So instead of wasting my time talking to them, I just contributed some money, twice the amount they're collecting per student, so they wouldn't complain about me not sharing my id

ASTRA (flashback part 2) When I was a mere kid, back then when I wasn’t even in high school just yet, the bookstore is my favorite hangout place for so many reasons. I love reading! I love discovering new ideas! It is also my mother’s work place after she quit designing for a high end brand. But most importantly, there’s this particular type of reading material I always love to check out during my free time. A visual book. A magazine. In those pages, there are beautiful tall women wearing elegant clothes. They look mysterious and intimidating. My mother calls them a model. She then mentioned that she use to work with those kind of women before. Ever since I learned about models, I dreamed of becoming one as well. I learned to dressed up properly though my closet used to consist of average looking clothes. I’ve learned to fix my posture, and copied how models walk on the videos I used to search on the internet. It was a ridiculous dream I thought I wouldn’t be able to achieve. I th

ASTRA (flashback part 3)I nodded eagerly at him and he walked near the door where a tiny mirror is hanging by. He grabbed it and walked back quickly to me. I also fished out my phone so I can start taking selfies!He grinned widely at me before placing the mirror on my lap. And then strangely, he quickly gathered his things and zoomed out of the room, wearing a stupid smirk on his face. What was that?And then slowly, my lips parted as I grip on the mirror, my suspicion rising again. Don't tell me that brute fooled me about the face paint?!I gulped and shook my head. Of course not! He's been extra nice today.Extra nice. Nice.Oh, fuck! I'm doomed! When is he ever nice?! That man was born with fucking horns in his head!A loud scream emerged out of my throat when I finally saw the finished drawing he made on my face! Pink and purple poops with eyes and mouth! Like the keyboard emojis!This is ridiculous! I touched it and it quickly smeared all over my cheeks since it's still wet. I

ASTRAI hit him on the arm and rolled my eyes, slightly laughing now after reminiscing that day. "Of course, I remember. How could I forgot?" I said, shaking my head smilingly. I then turned to the old man before putting the design book back on the table. "I'd like a butterfly here on my arm!"Sirius chuckled but I ignored him as I sat on the customer chair facing the tattoo artist. I was in awe while watching the process of it. The old man have a gifted hand. He's very good and a pro, very expert in detailing. After nearly fifteen minutes, it was finished! "Wow! This is pretty, Sir. You have an amazing talent!" I complimented, eyeing the finished henna tattoo on my arm. "A poop would look better on your skin."I looked up at Sirius and glared at him. I also attempted to kick him on the leg but he quickly dodged it."Kidding! I'd like one too, Sir.""Really?!"He eyed me sternly, both hands now on his hips. "Yes, so leave the chair, please. It's my turn."I quickly got up and let

SIRIUS (flashback part 2)Astra Fontanilla is such a funny mystery to me. She have one of the richest surname in the country beside her name and yet she’s a loner at school, being bullied by everyone. Well, technically, they’re not bullying her physically. But then, the subtle judgement from the school mates’ stares would be enough to kill off someone’s self esteem and affect them mentally and emotionally.Ah, well… she’s just like me. But the difference is, she’s pathetic at it. While I, on the other hand, was okay being alone. I love being on my own and not being bothered by these low class idiots.But that was I initially thought before I even had my first interaction with her. Surprisingly, she’s a lioness! Was my observation incorrect all this time? Her words are harsh and her yes could kill. Definitely not someone you would easily get along well with.“Wow. And here I was pitying you for being bullied and a loner in this school. Turns out you’re just a plain bitch who deserved i

SIRIUS I smirked, shaking my head while reminiscing those times. I can’t lie, those were the happiest and most fun memories of my life. Astra, somehow, was the constant source of joy in my life during high school. When college came, we rarely see each other anymore. I was graduating college and she was just a freshman. And during those times, she was already receiving so many offers to be a model so she’s even more busy to even throw a single glance at me. I glanced at Astra beside me. We’re at the dive bar of the resort and drinking for a bit. But it seems to me that she’s not very good in handling her alcohol. My forehead creased watching her eyes blinking slowly. “Dumb bitch. Go home,” I whispered to her after taking a sip on my canned beer. Why did she even have to tag along with me?! I’m here to find myself a guy right now! She shouldn’t be getting in my way! Now I’m sure everyone here thinks she’s my girlfriend! Ugh! I snatched the beer in her hand and grabbed her on the arm

ASTRAI pulled my luggage out of the room and left it in the living room before walking my way towards Sirius' bedroom door. I knocked twice before pushing it open to check if he's ready to leave."All done?" I asked, watching him comb his wet hair as he stood at the side of his bed wearing a black jeans and yellow flannels with a white shirt underneath it.I, on the other hand, was wearing a white basic crop top and denim jeans. I wore a cream colored three inches sandals to partner it. My hair was also in a messy bun. He nodded before stashing his comb quickly inside his bag. I turned my back and walked back to the living room. The bellboys are already outside to escort out of the resort."Aww. I'm gonna miss this place! By the way I haven't seen the photos you took of me here.""I'll show you in the plane later. Come on, the staffs are waiting."We pulled our luggage together outside and was greeted by warm farewells from the staff. They already called a taxi for us that'll take u
