Morning came and I was more excited than the rising sun because I was already up before my alarm rang to wake me up. Well--- I actually wanted to prepare for this day, Mezakiel said last night that it's my advantage to become more motivated in continuing this now that I found closure to our target easily.When I entered our classroom, I saw Coraline. She's busy from tapping her foot on the floor with a smirk on her lips to show how excited she was to see me today."Hello! How's last night? Caroline?" I waved my hand at her but she just clicked her tongue and I was tickled when he poked my waist. "Now now, Karin? Look who's giving me some energetic mood today?!"I clicked my tongue out of expecting her reaction. She knew that Aspen and I spent the party together last night when she's busy enjoying by herself. "What do you mean? I had a good sleep, that's why!"She only gave me a 'pft' as we sat on our seats since we're s
"Hey, wait! Stop, Karin!" When Mezakiel was done from being pulled by me, I quickly let him go when we recently crossed the road.I bit my lips that made him suspect. "If you didn't want to eat there, just say it! I'm starving!"He stomped and put his hands on his waist so I huffed. "Stop complaining about food for now. I saw Aspen inside."There's no need for me to hide Maddison and Amanda from Mezakiel. Mezakiel silenced himself and he gawked at the fastfood chain that we're facing right now. "Oh, then you should've told me to go away and you can head towards him."I crossed my arms before glaring at him. He didn't actually see Aspen because he's too focused from choosing at the menu. I was way more useful than him!"Easy for you to say because you didn't see any!" I returned back and got startled when he poked my forehead. That hurts, hello!"Ouch! What again?!""I should've seen it if you didn't
I was displaying myself in front of the clubroom's closed door and I was panting rapidly and heavily. Jasper and I tried our best to dash all the way here because Aspen's words sounded so urgent. "Here, take it," Jasper exclaimed amidst his breaths. He's lending an unopened bottle of water to me. "You need it more than I do. And I could easily buy another one on my way."All I did was to look at him and not the bottle he's giving. But he looked more exhausted than me. I refused to take his offer. "No thanks, you're more tired than me. And, aren't you going to stay in the clubroom with Aspen? You're his friend, right?" He just shrugged his shoulders, meaning to say he wouldn't stay that long. "No, I've got works in class and I don't want to interrupt your privacy." "Eh? What privacy?! He didn't say that I should be the only person to hear what he's going to tell," I told him in a chopped voice so Jasper ended up waving his b
We had no class sessions for the whole day so I still ended up staying in the musical clubroom but this afternoon, with Aspen and the rest already. We only did random things for fun inside. Even if I got the best opportunity to stay with him this morning, at least we enjoyed the afternoon.I was satisfied, I was still contented with this accomplishment I need to tell to Mezakiel. It was always fun being with Aspen. He's not a boring person, he's nice and he's a listener.While I was taking my stroll on the sideroad all the way back to my apartment, I heard Coraline's repeating call of my name from behind. "Wait! Karin!" I stopped and waited for her to catch me up until we're both walking together. I creased my brows. "Do you really need to run with full speed to catch me up?" I asked worriedly. She just smirked.Really? It's always the good tea that motivates her to approach me as fast as she could. "You're right, ye
Seconds already passed yet Maddison haven't told me what she's about to tell me. I was so sure that she's intentionally plotting a suspense on our talk as if she's making me worry right now. And the only thing for me to do to not show any fear of what she's going to tell was to act calmy. And I succeeded. "Are you actually---" Someone cut her words off when a strange woman, wearing her familiar school uniform interrupted our talk. I heaved a sigh out of relief. What's she going to ask me? Thanks to this someone. Maddison and I were speechless from the sudden intrusion of a girl on our table. Her lips were slightly trembling out of exhaustion and tension. She turned her head on my direction, looking into my eyes. "S-Sorry for disturbing your happy talk and your lunch. But I'm afraid, I need to talk to Karin." She pulled my wrist and I wasn't able to stop her that even Maddison only watched us from exiting the foodchain.
There was this extreme tremolus feeling that has been drowning me. I've been gulping thrice in every ten seconds yet Aspen's more troubled, the way he gripped on my wrist, he was slightly shaking.What's making him worry all of a sudden? Just because his brother appeared and he's unalarmed? I shouldn't judge, they may be siblings and his brother might look formal and nice, that wouldn't make me believe that they're in a good relationship. There's a problem between them. Aspen's not okay with him. "I'll go somewehere else, and don't follow us," Aspen warned him who was just leaning on the car. "You don't need to see me here." He's really far away from the Aspen we're hanging out with. Wren Asher Medina's giving him a cold mode. "Well." Wren clapped his hands once. "Fine with me for I only came here to check your new friend." Aspen's eyes turned into slits. "Have I ever mentioned Karin to you? Never. And I never have any plan for you two to meet." It felt like I was poured with a v
Mezakiel's sudden arrival here was to see me all along but I was surprised when he told me that Sadie informed him about me, walking with another guy. I have no idea on how Sadie had seen us during that moment, what was she even doing in this place at that time anyway? After drinking the water I gave him because he's too exchausted from running--- and he even demander me some, Mezakiel sat properly on the couch. We're parallel."And what's wrong with Aspen's older brother's company with me? We just talked, that's all." "That's the problem here." Mezakiel pointed me. "What's the talk about? What did you talk about?" I gulped. Should I tell him? Of course I must. Although it's reslly hard to remark all those negativities Wren shared about Aspen, I should tell it to Mezakiel. I wanter to assure if Wren's true to what he's saying. If he's not lying. That what if Aspen's really faking? What if he's not really interested when I'm around him. He's just trying to be nice. Stop it, Karin.
I was occupied for the past three days because the preparation for the Campus Festival's just a week ahead. The President of our class was assigned to help the higher officials of the school and as the second person who occupied the position, I was tasked to lead all my classmates for work. With all my exhaustion, I let put a massive breath and settled down on my seat. It's been three days since the last time I saw Aspen. The las time we met was when we went out for dinner and stayed at the Park. I'd never seen him because he's too busy and same as me. Badly, I couldn't contact Mezakiel anymore. He didn't see my texts nor answer my calls two days ago. That guy, he advised me for so many times that I just need to contact him if I need something and he's out of reach now. But it's okay! I don't need him for now anyway. I can handle myself, and there's no time making a move for the stake these days. "Hey!" Coraline tapped my shoulder and she still looked so lively even uf we're both
