"Ahhh! Finally!" Mac exclaimed right after we finished the final touches for our presentation tomorrow. I heard Gab sighed but I didn't bother looking at him as I was still busy saving our work on my laptop and copying it to a flash drive for a spare copy for the both of them.
It's already 10:00 pm. Good thing, Mac had bought some snacks for us to eat, or else, I'll be starving by now.
"Oh, by the way, is it okay for you not to go to the bar?" I was quite surprised when Gab asked me that question as if we're close.
Tsk. I admit that I didn't tried to pick on him tonight. It's because I have to focus on our presentation so I had to control myself and act civil towards him. But that doesn't mean that I'm up for a casual conversation with him.
"Oh, right. I heard you're the vocalist of Thoughts at Midnight. You're the talk of the town because of your talent." Mac in

Maze's"Have you eaten dinner?" I watched as my Mom assisted my Dad in removing his coat and tie and suddenly, my favorite steak tasted bitter.My Dad didn't answered her question and just proceeded to kitchen island and pour himself a glass of whiskey. He looked at me and I met his gaze with equal coldness. The household has always been like this whenever he came home from work.Cold.Quiet.If it wasn't because of Mom, I can never call this my home anymore. But my Mom is my home. And that's enough for me to cope up. For now."Aren't you going to join me and your son?" Mom asked again and I can't help but to secretly snort. It's obvious that we're not his family anymore yet my Mom kept acting so martyred.What a good wife she is.And how she didn't deserve such man."No, thanks.

Gabriel's"Now that we're finally able to tell everyone the subtypes of schizophrenia and its stages, why don't we play a guessing game?" I smiled at my block mates and I even saw Mike smiling at me from his seat while clapping his hands silently. I looked at Maze and he nodded at me before taking over. Mac and I are done presenting the 5 main subtypes of schizophrenia which is paranoid, disorganized, catatonic, undifferentiated and residual schizophrenia and even the three stages of it. Now, we're down to proposing different situations which involves the imaginary patients and their symptoms.Before speaking, Maze looked at me and Mac and nodded before showing us a thumbs up. I can't help but smile cause I feel validated. But my smile faded when I remember what happened last night and I avoided his gaze and looked at pur block mates who seems to be too drawn by the mesmerizing creature in front of them.I even saw

Gabriel'sThe moment Mr. Gesurem and most of our block mates left the room, Maze held my arm in a tight grip that I can't help but flinch. I looked at his eyes and all I can see is indignation. But I couldn't do anything about it cause I know that it's my fault. I'm also castigating myself for being so stupid."M-maze." Both Mac and Mike were fast enough to go between the two of us. But Maze didn't budge and held my arm in a tighter grip and all I can do is wince."The next time you try to mess up with my presentation, I'll make sure to break your neck." Maze said coldly through gritted teeth and I can feel my heartbeat racing in a painful way. I feel like my chest is being squeezed continuously while looking at his fuming orbs. This is the first time I saw him like this. Far from being emotionless. He's now showing his emotion but sadly, it's anger. And it's because of me.And why do I feel like I'm abo

Maze'sThe moment I heard the waiter, I didn't think twice on rushing outside the backstage. I didn't even bothered waiting for Mark and Top and just ran towards Gab and his friends' usual spot.There I saw him lying down the floor and Mike is kneeling beside him while Kevin is trying to stop the guy from getting near him. The guy's quite big and he seems to be really mad with Gab.The other customers are just watching but no one really dared to help. The volume of the music is also minimized as if the DJ's giving a room for louder argument. Tsk. I've already told Top a couple of times to hire a bouncer. What is he doing?"Who the fuck do you think you are, huh? You think you can fight me?!" The guy shouted at him angrily whilst Kevin is still trying hold him."Your girlfriend is the one who came to me!" Gab said while holding his jaw."Ha! And you real

Maze's"Did you enjoy the hotpot?" Mark asked right after we got out of the elevator. We just had a late dinner at a hotpot restaurant with Cole and Troy but then, Mark said that he wants to drop me off and I don't want to walk either so I agreed with him and we're having the usual random conversation so he decided to sent me off my room as well."It's quite good." I answered and he nodded."You ditched class on your first day, you prick." He reminded me and I chuckled as I shook my head."I was pissed off upon hearing Adan and Gabriel's conversation. They're both a jerk. And they seem to be proud at competing with each other to collect their harem of girls. So I needed to let off some steam as I can handle seeing Gab in the same class." I said and he's looking at me intently while we walked towards my room."I can't blame you, though." He said while shrugging.

Gabriel's"C'mon, Gab! Would it kill you to say 'thank you' to Maze?" Mike said while pulling me towards the cafeteria and I'm trying to break free from his hold. He's been nagging me since morning to express my so called gratitude to Maze because of saving me last night but I don't want to. Not because I don't feel thankful but because it's obvious that he didn't do that for me but for the bar and I'm also aware that he won't accept it either."Mike!" I called his name with an irritated voice and he stopped pulling me for a while when he saw that I'm not having any slightest fun. "How many times to I have to tell you that it's no use?! He didn't do that to save me--""But he still saved you!" I glared at Barry when he interrupted me and saw Kevin and Marvin nodding as if telling me that Barry is right. And I let out an exasperated sigh before looking back at Mike and he smirked at me."Majority wins!" He then

Gabriel's"Aren't you afraid that you'll go to rust, Gab? I mean, it's already three weeks that you haven't dated someone! That is so not you!" The busybody Marvin said before gulping down his beer and all I can do is give him a stern look but did not utter any word either. They've been asking me such question for the past 3 weeks now and I'm at my limit, seriously. Not because I felt insulted or what but because I don't know the answer either!It's been 3 weeks since Maze came and I don't think it's a coincidence that I've also lost my interest on playing with other girls after he came to the picture. I've been trying to avoid looking at him because I feel like my feeling's in danger and also because I can clearly see that he doesn't like me being around him.We haven't been in this bar for 2 weeks, yet Top invited us this morning because it's his birthday and who am I to decline my best senior's invitation? And so, I had no

Gabriel's"Our first song for tonight is dedicated to our birthday boy, of course." Maze smiled before looking at Top. "Happy birthday, Brother." I don't know but Maze's voice when he said that is really far from his indifferent tone. He sounded so sincere and his smile this time looks genuine. I tried looking at his eyes while he's adjusting the microphone and couldn't help but to stare at it even if he's not looking at me.Yeah, sure. It's obvious that he's happy for Top. But I will never know if he's ever really happy when it comes to his self. I mean, look at those eyes when it's not looking at anyone. It may seemed blank but it's actually full of hidden emotions that no one would know if no one would dare. I see how he smiled once again before looking at the crowd."This is Have it all by Jason Mraz." He said while before looking at his band mates and nodding at them.I don't know how to expla
