Knight stared at me and I froze right on the spot.
What the freak? Why is he here with his mother? And what am I doing here, letting Gavin hold me by the waist like this?
Situation Normal: All Fouled Up.
“You know them, Shejie?” Gavin asked me but I couldn’t reply because my eyes are all set on Knight’ daggers on me. He’s shooting daggers on me and I can’t even… Ugh!
Why do things always have to happen at the wrong time?
“I’m Knight.” I was shocked at the sarcasm and anger in his voice. Damn it! I know he’s mad. And double damn it! I’m dead!
I noticed Gavin’s hand out of my waist and I took that time to step away from him. Hell, what was I doing near him anyway?
“I’m Gavin. Ashejan’s friend.” I was actually relieved that he introduced himself as a friend and not like how Jericho or Phytos would. Those two are the hopeless ca
I didn’t even concentrate on the lectures today. Damn it. Why did he have to tell me that we’re having dinner with his mother just this morning? I’m not prepared enough!And what would I tell his mother when she saw me with Gavin last night? Won’t she think of me as a slut or a flirt? Would she think that I am not serious with her son?“Are you alright?” Genina asked me. “You’re zoning out since this morning.” She told me as a matter of fact.I nodded and smiled. “I’m fine.” I replied. “I’m just thinking of some things.” I told her.She raised her brow. “Like what?” She asked me. “What are you thinking that made you zone out too much?” She asked as she leaned her elbows on the table to listen to me more attentively.Damn it! She’s cornering me and I can’t even decide if I’m going to tell her or not about me and Knight.
“You’re dating the dork.”I was stopped from rewriting my notes when I heard Jericho’s voice. I looked up and saw him frowning as he looked down at me.I narrowed my eyes on him. “Pardon?” I asked. But I swear, if he’s going to repeat what he said, I’m going to crush him alive. Knight is not a dork. Or maybe he is but he’s my dork. And no one must call him that way other than me.He rolled his eyes on me. “You’re dating the Einstein wannabe.” He stated and I slammed my hands on the table and glared at him.“One more time, Jericho Marquez, and I’ll freaking crush you.” I warned him but he didn’t even budge.He just shrugged at me. “What do you actually expect from me?” He asked me.“Nothing.” I replied. “I expect you nothing because first, we’re done. Second, he’s a better person than you and you s
My relationship with Knight is going smoothly. Sure there are a lot of people who wanted us to breakup or who are putting a deadline on our relationship, we didn’t care. Actually, I care but Knight does everything he could to make me not give a damn.He spends most of his time at school with me. He eats lunch with me and Genina. Sometimes, I eat with him and Serena, who is a little weird because she’s too quiet and I don’t see her that way when she’s alone with Knight.I am not the type who asks her boyfriend to stay away from other girls so, sometimes, I let him eat with Serena alone. After all, they are buddies. They are study buddies and they both love NASA and the galaxy.Sometimes, though, I could see Serena look at me and Knight as we eat alone. It seemed like she didn’t like me for her friend just as how everybody is against my relationship with him.I don’t find it weird though. She might be thinking that I stol
“It’s going to be alright,” Jervic tried to hush me as we sat in his car after a while. “If he makes you cry, then, he’s just like me and every other ex-boyfriend you had. He’s not worth it.”I blew my nose on the Kleenex he stocked in his car. I think I’ve never cried like this before. And take note, it’s not even a breakup but I feel so wronged. I felt like the whole world turned its back on me. Hell, Knight is my whole world.And damn it, he turned his back on me. He went and didn’t even look back. Or was it me who didn’t look back? But what the heck, he didn’t even call my name!I couldn’t actually take every word Jervic is telling me right now. I don’t even feel like my soul is one with my body at this moment. I feel so tired of crying, of hurting, of…everything that happened today.I shut my eyes and sighed hard. Damn. When will this sinking feeling in my hear
I followed Knight to the school’s rooftop.I’m still feeling nervous about what he would tell me when I ask him about all his secrets. Although I want an honest relationship, I am afraid of what the truth holds. Can I handle it? Or…He stopped and looked at me. His piercing eyes are seeing through me and I can’t help but look down. He intimidates me. He always does. I don’t even know how I endured being with him when he intimidates me this much.My heart started beating faster again. I ditched him when he told me to meet him up in the park. I don’t know how long he waited or if he even went there. But I know I didn’t show up. I wasn’t ready to talk to him back then. The memories were all fresh and I can’t seem to look at him without remembering how he kissed another girl in front of me.I felt him walk closer to me. I wanted to run away. But if I did, what would happen to me? I would just die of think
“Ashejan, please talk to me.”I don’t really know what I will say. Damn. I can’t even move an inch after his revelation. I wanted this right? I wanted to know everything. But why do I feel so regretful that I had to know the truth? I got what I want but why does this hurt so much?I looked at him with my mind blank. I don’t know what to say or how to react. I’m way too shocked to even give him a better reaction.He’s a father. He has a two-year old daughter and she’s named Serena. All this time, I was jealous of the wrong girl.So that’s why he said he would never date Serena, our classmate. He’s just close to her because she’s a nerd and she’s the same name as his daughter.Knight held my hand. He must have noticed that I wasn’t myself. Hell yeah, I wasn’t myself these past few days. I don’t know if I will ever be.I can be with a playboy or a Casanova
“Who she, Dada?”I almost wanted to run away from here when I heard Serena speak to Knight. I was so nervous that I think I could even match her broken, baby language.I swear I admire Knight for introducing me to his daughter but I don’t think I’m ready for this. I didn’t know it was this hard – accepting that the person you love have had experienced something special with another woman that’s not you.I wanted to know how it felt when he did it with her but then again, I don’t want to bring the past back. I wanted to know what he felt when he knew he was going to be a father but then again, I don’t want to be disappointed.He must really love Serene so much to be this happy.He scooped Serena into his arms and made her face me. “Serena, this is Ashejan,” Knight introduced her to me. “She’s my girlfriend.” He added even though we both know that little Serena doesn&
I was busy kissing Chadwick and the next thing I know, he was down on the floor. My legs trembled when I saw Knight punch him really hard.“You, asshole.” He spat at Chadwick as he motioned to punch him again.It was good that I held onto his hand and pulled him away before his fist could land on Chadwick’s face again.Why did I even kiss him in the first place?I made Knight look at me. “Knight, please, calm down.” I told him as I stroke his arm while I hold his other hand tight. Shit. This is all because of me.I am very stupid that I think I should be in Guinness. Really.He looked at me with his angry eyes and I won’t complain. It was my fault for kissing back. It was my fault for not looking away. It was my fault for even looking at Chadwick. I should’ve just gone out of the cafeteria but I didn’t. It was my entire fault.He sighed hard and hugged my tight as he kissed the top of my
