Love Over Gamble Chapter 23
I was very frustrated when I saw two people, facing each other by the couches of my apartment. Even silence let us all exchange stares when I found Mezakiel and Grandma. "G-Grandma?! Why are you here? And you should've informed me about it!" I complained and my chest's about to burst because I was too shocked, Mezakiel's here right now! And Grandma might've seen him staying here. I just wanted to explain right at this time.Grandma just chuckled in his usual loud way before giving some space to my couch. "Come on, dear! Were you this scared that I'll catch your boyfriend? Living here with you?" Oh, good. This was always Grandma, the naughty type of woman who would love to tease her granddaughter about lovelife. She didn't even bother to reply on my question. Mezakiel and I exchanged glances. "This is not my boyfriend!" "Oh, lying's a rude thing a lovely granddaughter could offer her grandma!" She playfully tapped my head. And what did they talk about when I wasn't still here? Loo

"Spill, you're making me really curious," I blurted, leaning on my lap as we shed under a huge umbrella. "First, I want to apologize. You know? For those days of my absence instead of helping you," he replied and gave me a forced smile. My lips went open, Mezakiel's been very bothered with it. I told him that it's not a trouble to me at all, this time. I breathed out heavily. "You're such a pain, does it look like I'm still sulking about it until today? Get over it, and whatever was your reason to leave? I understand it." "That's the point. I wanted to tell you the reason why I wasn't there, helping you even if it's actually my job to be on your side." He added a fake chuckle. "My job on this gamble we participated in was so simple, simplier than yours but I could not even do it. But I at least want to tell you why I couldn't comply." My brows met in annoyance. I was surprised, actually? That he also had this kind of sensitive consciousness. That he's overcaring.I elbowed his arm
Love Over Gamble Chapter 25
Of all people who I wished to interrupt the conversation between Coraline, me and my cousin? Why would it be Wren? And what does he want from me? Why's he even here in the first place?"You are?" Kiana questioned. None of her hands were pointing at Wren but we all know who she was referring to. Wren politely gave Kiana a smile as his formal greeting. "Pleasant evening, if it isn't the daughter of the Ruiz?" Kiana didn't even give Wren a nod but we knew that she's the person Wren's saying. My cousin slightly smiled back. "I return a greeting." Oh, small world for people who were living under businesses. Of course, I would not be surprised to discover that these two knew each other. It's just that I didn't expect their paths to cross here. Coraline and I didn't do anything other than throwing glimpses on them, one by one. My feet were starting to get cold with this pressure between Wren and me. Wren coughed after our eyes met. "Pardon for the interruption? Can I excuse Karin Ruiz?"
Love Over Gamble Chapter 26
Seconds went faster when Maddison's far from Aspen and I as I was already stopped beside the waiting guy, on the car. All eccentricity's painted on my eyes when I kept staring at Maddison who successfully entered the Dining venue. "Hey, now. You came!" I shifted sight to Aspen when he suddenly tapped my shoulders. "Want to go somewhere else?" "What? What about the party? And, why are you with her? Where's Amanda?" My consecutive questions left him curious when his brows arched. Did I ask many? Or was my question about Maddison caught him? "Don't worry, let's count on Jasper from performing the song later. How about a dinner? The two of us?" My cheeks reddened, a sudden asking of date? Was that it? "And worry less!" Aspen added a chuckle. "I only drove Maddison here because we had a talk." "And what was your talk about?" I questioned, knitting my brows on him. Okay, what's my right to expect for a detailed answer and who was I to know their private conversation? Instead of givin
Love Over Gamble Chapter 27
Monday morning, I woke up in a rush to go to school because it was almost 8 am when I got up from my bed. Thank goodness I successfully made it on time but I was too exhausted as well. It has been 3 am when Aspen drove me back to my apartment since we still went in many places to spend the hours with. It's like he never bothered himself in what time it was, and I didn't try to ask him why he's been very entertained with me as if it's just the only chance we had to be together again. But that's kind of vague to happen, we would never let that happen. Lunch break came but I still didn't get any chance to see Aspen so I decided to just ignore it for now. I went to the cafeteria with Coraline and yes, she was sulking when I tried calling her to come with me earlier. Good thing she was convinced by my offering of treat. Great, lessening my allowance instantly again. "I know it's my fault for not telling Kiana and you that I left the party last night. But you see, all of us are fine. I am
Love Over Gamble Chapter 28
It's been three days straight that I've lost communication with him. Mezakiel explained me why we received this punishment saying Wren should have disqualified us but Mezakiel pleaded to spare the rudeness and mistake I did so he ended up giving us this kind of punishment. That's a huge pain, why would he get mad of my rudeness toward his when I reacted like that because of his annoying actions after all?! Added to it, Wren might've intentionally made me mad to lose my control and throw unpleasant attitude toward. So that he could do this to us, to Aspen. He wanted us both to separate so we couldn't make stronger closure. Come on! He really got some huge problem with his younger brother?! Even involving our friendship?! It's making me angry every time I think about it.But good timing, I could not actually have my time making a move to Aspen for the gamble because the arrival of the midterm examination day's too close. We both needed to focus studying and I know that he's also piled
Love Over Gamble Chapter 29
Even though I haven't finished cleaning the library, I still let Maddison bring me to wherever she wanted us to go. After the long walk, we finally made it to the cafeteria of the school and there I found myself, facing her in one table. The cafeteria's a bit silent since there were least students inside. "What do you want to tell me again?" I asked, pretending I didn't understand what she'd said earlier. But I heard it clearly, she's going to tell me the reason why Aspen's being like this to me suddenly. If I were Maddison, I would also doubt Aspen's sudden changes toward the close friend he just wanted to spend his time with. "His reason of ignoring you," she replied, holding her hands together over the table. "Believe me or not, I will still say it even if I'll sound like betraying the rest people." I creased my brows on her. What did she mean by betraying rest people? It's like she's implying the information must be a secret to me. This is very dubious, I really need to know it
Love Over Gamble Chapter 30
Lately, I've been deciding to just avoid Aspen for now. It's for the better, it's not easy. It's not easy to let him ignore me at all. It's extremely hard to believe that the person who was just treating you like you're the best friend he have ever had suddenly became a stranger to you in a blink of an eye. The more I dive into this problem, the worse pain and overthinking I get. To the point that it's forcing me to approach his brother and tell him to stop it but I could not do it because I must not. I told to Mezakiel that we should not mind this suspension and gamble for now and just wait for Wren to stop the punishment but it's actually me who was being affected at all. After my schedule ended, I quickly went home because I needed to sleep and study for a bit. I closed my door and a loud thud disturbed the quiet room. I admit it, I expected Mezakiel to be here and talk to me because I admit it, I badly wanted to talk to him. I needed his voice, his words, his irritating face that
