Did not know why I am back on my hometown alone after spending a day with my friends. Earlier, I was laughing with them to cast all my worries away not until I am finally left alone inside that house. I have never been so empty my life, maybe I was devastated after Elric broke up with me but what Damian did is more painful. I was not expecting a Prince Charmng anymore, contented on how he is to me, but guess I am failed by my own thoughts again. I spent weeks on hiding my pain but this time, I could not take it anymore. Never thought that after hours of good times and laughter, will lead me to this kind of misery. I guess we really should not be too happy or else we’ll be sad longer.I am currently in the same place I was before but this time, I am here because not because I fought with someone but because I failed to love one more time.Earlier, after my friends left, I notice that Damian weren’t at home—even his car. I guess he is out again to wherever he is going. I bent my knees f
Maybe they are right when it rains on your parade, rainbow will soon to occur after a long journey of heavy rains. I have been wishing for a Prince Charming on a right time with a Cinderella-like love story to pacify my standards. But never thought that I would be no like Cinderella because I was born to create my own story and find my Prince Charming on my own silly way.“Gosh, I don’t feel my make-up today.” I mumbled while watching myself in front of the mirror.Leigh, who is also fixing herself, growled. “Shut up, preggy, you look good already.”I immediately cup my belly after Leigh said that. My baby is six months now, three way to go before we’ll finally see him. And yes, it’s a boy. Damian was so happy after we had our gender reveal celebration last month. I could not help but to chuckle on what my love story looks like. Did not know that being in a total heartbreak can lead a person to another roller-coaster love story that I thought, will fail as well like the usual. Who wou
A white folder is placed on top of the table right after he answered a call. The man in front of me who stands six feet tall, wearing a black suit with his two block haircut with bangs, and an eyeglass that makes him look cooler; sat down on his swivel chair before he heaves a deep sigh. I look at his face thoroughly with my close-to-closing eyes, judging if his intent to me is really real and if he wasn’t really kidding around. Mister Dawson looks at me before he raises his left brow when he notices that I’ve been staring at him for a long time now.“Problem?”I blink my eyes as I shake my head. “N-none,” I murmured before opening the folder to skim the documents inside it. While going through the papers, my eyes bulge a little before I slowly raise the certain paper I found. He then follows the paper with his gaze before he drops his attention back at me and move the brows upwards as if he is asking me what the problem is.&
“Perhaps, the greatest risk any of us will ever take is to be seen as who we really are.” I stated dreamily while holding a medium wand that my father bought for me thirteen years ago. My left foot took a step forward as I smile heartily with both of my hands clasp altogether as I look up in the sky, remembering my favourite fairy tale, Cinderella.My best friend, Everleigh, sighed as she peel off the mask of a tangerine. “You are twenty-one year old with boyfriend who still believes such fairy tales.” She made a tsk sound before taking two slices of tangerine inside her mouth. “Come on girl, we are living in 21st century where people booze up in bars and clubs, butt-party all night, make love and travel from time to time! You do not expect someone to live inside a story book and wait for a Cinderella-like story that your boyfriend could not even
Leigh and I both look at each other with so much confusion visible on our faces. I lick my lower lips before moving a little to cast out the uncomfortable chain that is slowly building inside me before facing Mica once again."W-we just got inside the university a minute ago. Why?" I asked, trying to hide my stutter, but it turned out against my will. I stuttered, for I do not know why."What about Elric and Mhaureen?" My best friend intervened this time with a crease visible on her face. I was about to touch her shoulder to calm her down, but Mica spoke for the second time around."I don't know if I am in the place to say this, but I heard from the Nursing department that they are both dating for a year now."***The wind passes my place as I carry my handbag on my left shoulder while standing on the field, trying to scan for Elric in the middle o
While I am walking on the hallway inside our building, I can't help but to fall a tear from my own eyes, still inside my head on how Elric shakes his head earlier, telling me that he didn't love me a little. That alone makes me want to shout but I contain myself, knowing that I am in the middle of the crowd— students walking to and fro, while I am here, tearing up. I bring my left hand up and bit the side of it, wanting to stop myself from crying hard. My nose is a bit sore now and my muscles are in tension. I could not understand the pain I am currently feeling but one thing is only clear to me...I am hurt.Deeply hurt. I did not expect heartbreak can be this painful. You see, Elric is always been my first love. Who wouldn’t? I mean, he was actually super nice to me. Treat me as if I am that precious, he often calls me sweet names way back when we were just friends. He was always the one who will approach me and ask me out. Lend me his hand alway
CHAPTER 4 My eyes widen in pure shock hearing those words coming out from him. I watch him walk on the other side of his table, now grabbing back his book. I am about to complain but chose not to. Who am I to complain? In fact, my block mates are now groaning from behind after what the Professor announced a minute ago. I can clearly say that I am giving trouble to everybody today—which is new. I walk up the stairs through the center aisle to take the vacant seat while both of my shoulders are down as if I am carrying a heavy baggage behind my back. I gave my friends a meaningful look but the guys just wink and laugh at me while pointing the Professor in front. I then annoyingly sway my bag that I am holding then what happened next shock everyone out again. “Oh, damn it!” I let out a very loud gasp as I look at the man who has spilled coffee on his white shirt and varsity short. His attention is already on his stained clothes and I could
I hurriedly grab my things to follow the three guys going outside the room. Some of our block mates notice how my friends went out fiercely and I can feel how their glares are going deep into our backs. The moment I went out, I only saw Rael's back who is consecutively tapping the elevator's button when it closes already, leaving the two of us behind.My breathing is so heavy the moment I came near him who is now looking down at my face. I am certain how worried flashes over my face, making the latter groan once again before gripping my wrist to get down with him using the stairs. "I seriously can't handle that man when he's mad, you know that. No one can." He whispered as we went down with a sign of hurry.We even almost bump some students but we just apologized and walk back down again. Knowing Levi, amongst these three men, he is closer to me. Aside from Everleigh, I also grew up with him until we finished our grade school. His fami
