Chapter 6

As soon as Akira caught sight of me, he leapt from his seat on the bench and approached me with a smile. He had a broad grin on his face. When he was able to get within touching distance of me, he first kissed my forehead and then both of my cheeks. I couldn't help but crack a smile at his very kind action.

"It's so sweet!" We both looked at her because of what she said.

She continued by saying, "Of the candy that I am eating," after which she laughed and smiled at us. To get her to stop, all I had to do was pull on her short hair. Because of the tingle I'm experiencing, my face is starting to redden, and I don't want Akira to see me like this because it's embarrassing. My face is starting to look like a tomato.

We traveled to the location that was being shared by Akira and his two closest friends, Jeremy and Lance. By the way, Lorilyn had a frowning expression on her face when she saw her former suitor.

It had been nearly a week since Lance's previous disclosure to Lorilyn that he intended to pursue courtship with her.I have high hopes that Lorilyn will experience joy in her life. On the other hand, the opposite occurred. I have the impression that she was more hot-blooded than he was. When other factors are taken into account, he appears to be nothing more than a breeze.These two concepts are beyond my comprehension. Even though they appear to love one another, they continue to argue and try to avoid one another instead of resolving the issues that exist between them.

"Happy debut, Jennifer! Wooo… The question is, "What are you prepared for?" Jeremy greeted me in a friendly manner as I sat on the cement table while Lance sat on the bench and was just looking at the three of us, excluding Lorilyn. Lorilyn was the only person who wasn't present.

"I have a feeling that my sister, Clara, will be preparing a lot." I replied by saying, "So, by the way, here's my invitation for the two of you," and then I handed them the invitation card for my debut later that evening. "You are a member of the 18 Roses, and as such, you are obligated to attend, all right?" I added.

When I said yes to Akira's question while we were at Bagasbas Beach, it brought us both closer together, and I have compassion for his two closest friends. I, too, have become somewhat verbose as a result of being infected by their nonsense. I cannot also say that Akira made everything we had last longer because she cared about us. I didn't allow him to stray from the path. Why? I believe that a serious commitment should be made as soon as possible in a romantic partnership.

We are currently in school because Lorilyn and I are still working toward obtaining a good moral certificate, which will be required for the college enrollment page. However, these three boys did nothing more than accompany us to school. They claim that they have nothing to do in their homes. And with that, the five of us left the restaurant and drove straight to our homes. In addition to this, the four of them are adamant that they assist in the preparation of the food that will be served at my debut.

It's just sad. because Akira can't join my eighteen roses. He explained that he had something very important to attend that evening and that he could not afford to be late. When I asked him where he was going, he responded that now was not the time for him to tell me because it was not the appropriate time. Regarding the "I don't know" issue, he took the matter very seriously. And he said that he didn't want to spoil the most significant evening of my life by doing so. And I have faith in him. I do understand him. Perhaps in the fullness of time, he will also talk about that. Even though I was uncertain about his "walk" in the future, I decided to trust him.

Akira vowed with a trace of melancholy, "My angel, please know that I am truly sorry." My face lit up because of the salty breeze coming off the water. I was holding both of Akira's hands while they were wrapped around my waist.

"It's OK. I completely understand you, and I won't take it personally if you are unable to make it to my debut performance. It is sufficient for me if I only have the knowledge that you love me. Already, it has met all of my expectations. You are by far the most thoughtful present anyone could have given me for my 18th birthday. You are indeed a present of the highest caliber. "I tried to cheer him up by telling him that it would help."

He hugged me even tighter. He went so far as to bury his face in my neck and plant little kisses on it, which caused a slight tickle in my skin. After some time had passed, I became aware of his hands rising up from my stomach. The end result was that his hands cupped my breasts. I gave him a quick pinch, but he didn't seem to mind in the least.

He asked in a laughing tone, "What?" I am aware of his breath on the back of my neck. Oh no! The way that he treats me makes me feel feeble.

"Stop!" I should be speaking to him in a harsh tone, but I found myself saying those words in a gentler tone instead. It came across as though I was pleading with him to proceed with what he was doing.

In a quavering tone, he pleaded with her to tell him once more to desist. When his lips touched the back of my neck, I couldn't help but sigh with contentment and close my eyes. We're at a beach that's open to the public!

As soon as I recalled that, I snapped out of my sleep immediately. I removed his hand from my chest, which had been resting there, and then I pulled myself up from the sand to put some distance between us. Because if I continue to linger in his embrace for a little while longer, I just might give in to him, and then we will be able to perform a miracle right here on the beach. Thank goodness it is Sunday today. Because there were so few people here to hang out, Akira's antics went unnoticed by everyone. The number of people who were here to hang out could be counted on one hand.

"When I charm you, you become extremely adorable." And now he's laughing with his trademark sarcasm. I gave him the evil eye as a response to his smirk in my direction. However, it seemed as though he enjoyed me more and more as time went on.

The area surrounding our yard is very loud. You can hear the eerie music coming from the karaoke as well as the boisterous laughter of the guests who came to celebrate my debut. The event has just ended, and everyone will soon begin their dinner.

I rose stealthily from my seat and slipped out of our yard after closing the gate behind me.

While I walk, the heels of my purple heels make a very slight contact with the ground, and the long pair of gold earrings I'm wearing jiggle and move around. I was walking when I looked down at my dress and noticed that it was the same color as my heels. After that, I found myself pondering several questions in my head.

What would Akira's reaction be if he saw me right now?On your very special day, I can't help but wonder what it would be like to dance with your special someone.

I formed a frown. Oh, how I long for him to be in this room right now. Holding the very last of my 18 roses in his hand as he approached me in the middle of the crowd, he asked for my permission to dance with him, and he imagined that we would move our bodies together to the beat of a love song as we danced together.

I tried to persuade myself that "it must be really important," so that I wouldn't be completely overcome by my feelings of sadness. It is not in my best interest to harbor ill will toward him. I am sure that he would not want me to feel sad on a night like tonight.

As I made my way out of our gate and onto the road, I was greeted by the roar of oncoming traffic and the smell of exhaust. The entire region is well lit thanks to the streetlamps as well as the headlights of passing vehicles.

As I looked up into the night sky, I noticed that the clouds that had been blocking my view of the stars were beginning to part. My view took in the entire moon as well as the thousands of stars that were strewn across the night sky. As soon as I laid eyes on the moon, I had the distinct impression that I was experiencing something that I was unable to articulate.

My feet gradually began to move in sync with the moon, as if they were guided by an internal intelligence. I just let myself take me somewhere. The moon is trying to get me to follow it.

After traveling for some time, I found myself at the base of a mountain. How did I get to this place? Even though I'm not entirely confident that I'll make it to the zenith of the moon, I rented a tricycle in the hopes that it will help me get there. This is without a doubt the most insane thing I have ever attempted in my entire life, and I completed it on the day of my debut. But I can't help but have a soft spot in my heart for the moon. To my good fortune, I was flush with cash at the time of the event, so I had no trouble paying the admission fee.

As I was abandoned here by everyone else, I let out a sigh. I didn't even have the slightest bit of anxiety about being by myself in such a setting. I turned my attention to the peak of the mountain. I can see the dense portion of it because the light of the moon is shining on it.

After that, I simply went running up to it. I was completely oblivious to the branches and leaves that were hitting me. My sister popped into my head out of nowhere. I can only assume that she is looking for me. Where am I going with this?

When I finally made it to the peak of the mountain, I was so exhausted that I could only crawl forward on my knees. I'm getting short of breath, but the fact that I haven't passed out from exhaustion despite having run for such a long time is surprising to me. As a result of the leaves and branches that were hanging from the back of my gown, it resembled a Christmas tree. I believe that my hair is messy as well.

"Roaaarr!" When I heard that growl, I immediately devoured I turned my head to the front of me to investigate the source of the sound. Next, I was taken aback by what I saw, which was an unexpected turn of events.

It was my boyfriend transforming into a beast resembling a wolf. As a result of his transformation, his clothes were ruined and torn to shreds.

I recoiled in disbelief and came dangerously close to passing out because of the shocking event. As Akira's wolf form cautiously approached me, I had a death grip on the bottom of my gown and was clinging to it with all my might.

His icy blue eyes looked directly at me, penetrating my very being.
