After listening for an hour, I came to believe that Kane did really visit me in those times as he told me some of the things he was concerned with. It seemed that he bottled it all up. Kane pouted, "When I came to visit you, aside from the first few times, you don't look like you missed me. You are happy with them. Especially with that person named Hugh. You are being too close to him. Are you sure he doesn't have a crush on you? Whenever your group hang out, he was always there." "Because he is part of the group. Don't worry about Hugh, I think he has a crush on Lilac." "Your dormitory friend? But they looked like they hate each other." "Didn't we also start that way?" Kane chuckled, "Right. It only changed when you played Cupid." I could not help but smile at the memory. Wait.... I slapped Kane's arm. "You are changing the topic. I am still angry at you." Although I said that, there was no really no anger in my heart anymore. I just wanted to make it difficult for Kane for
The sound of the piano filled the room. I watched as my beautiful older sister danced her finger gracefully across the piano. Every key, every note, every beat was pulling my heartstring. I have heard this piece a hundred times and practiced it until I lost count. However, it felt like I was listening to it for the first time. I watched in awe as my hold tightened around my fluffy bunny. This stuffed toy I was holding was named Elizabeth, a cute pink rabbit. I like Elizabeth because she was soft and easy to draw. I focused again on my sister who looked like a fairy-no a princess? I don't know, who is more beautiful than the two, was my sister. Her platinum blond hair falls freely and stopped at her waist. Her green eyes tha
"--act like a lady of a McKenzie. Remember our image is very important. You have to talk to the other children and establish a connection, especially with the golden heirs. Anna, you can charm them by leading them to the music room. No one can resist your music. Stella--Stella! What are you holding?!!" I was jolted awake from my daydreaming when I heard my mother yelling at me. Subconsciously, I hugged Elizabeth tighter in my arms. I'm just enjoying the scenery from the window, what I've done now? "Stella! Throw away that garbage! You are ten already and still playing with that stuff?!" Virginia, my mother, who was wearing a silver dress, sitting in the passenger seat glared at me from the rearview mirror. Richard, my father also glanced at me from the
"Whatthehelldidyoudothatfor??!!!!Douchbag!!!Bastard!!!Sh*t!!!F***k!!!D*mn!Motherfu-"I turned off my alarm and throw my phone on the bed. I went to the nearby closet and began to dry my hair. Yup, I'm already awake. I always wake up 30 mins before my alarm blows off. I still put an alarm so that I could know how much time I spent after I woke up. I'm an early person. Besides, I had reasons why I'm waking up early than ot
The four of us moved here when were sixteen and live here onwards. It was very awkward at first, but for me, I'm glad I'm not living in that suffocating house anymore. Speaking of them, my family already moved to Italy to support my sister Anna in her music career. She was already twenty and at the peak of her career. So my parents did not let her stay here but offer me instead. If it's other children, they might be sad, but for me, it was freedom. I don't need to practice piano or violin anymore. I toasted the bread and went to the fridge to get the milk. I saw two cartons of milk with different brands. Layla said yesterday that she bought milk. Not caring what kind of brand Layla bought, I get the nearest one. They were both kinds of milk anyway. Howe
"Kane. My car's brake is broken. I'll send it to the car shop later. Can we get a ride with yours?" I asked loudly before Kane went out. Layla looked at me in disbelief. "For the first time, you brokesomething.Tell me, how did it feel?" I looked at Layla strangely. Did I really not break any things before? Am I that careful of my things? Well, it was good news, right? Kane turned around and said sternly to me. "Ride with Layla. She has two cars." Idiot!This
Kane looked at me like he was seeing a ghost.Oh. Did I hit a bullseye?I become more confident and proud after seeing his expression. So I continued."You know Kane, I don't like you personally but I think you're a good man to Layla. Do you want Layla to stop dating those absurd guys and playboys?"Kane did not answer, he just looked down. However, his jaw was clenched.I took it as a yes."If you hate seeing those maniacs hover around her, then go forward and confess to Layla. But of course, you will not blindly confess. If you do tha
I am always right.Me being an avid reader of thousands of stories out there made me a psychic.Of course, I am kidding. My perception is just better than other people. It made me good at reading people.I stared at the new guy, named Eduardo, as his eyes followed Layla's every move.This guy was definitely into Layla.On the way to the classroom, Eduardo walked closer to us. He tried to strike up a conversation with Layla which Layla ignored.Eduardo just smiled. He then turned to me, the woman who was Layla close to.Ugh...."So you are Stella Mckenzie? I have met your sister, Ella, in France. I attended one of her concerts.""Oh...Nice." What else could I say?"How long have you been friends with Layla?"You are being direct just after one question?I awkwardly stepped closer to Layla who was busy bickering with Levi."Since childhood.""You know her very well then, huh? Then,
