I was fuming mad while walking back to our room. Ian was walking behind me. He would sometimes laugh whenever he would hear me groan because of frustration.
“Hey,” he called me while obviously trying to stop himself from laughing.
I rolled my eyes and turned to face him.
“We have a practice after class.” He reminded me making me breathe heavily to stop myself to shout my frustration.
I sat on my seat next to Drake while Ian walked to his seat. I saw how his shoulder moved, obviously laughing.
“Hey,” Drake called me.
I looked at him and raised a brow.
“You look mad.” He noticed and I rolled my eyes at him before answering.
“I am mad.”
Instead of thinking so much about it, I thought about what my parents wanted me to do.
I looked at Drake again and saw him looking at me.
“Can we talk later?” he immedi
“I can’t, Fely. I’m sorry.”I expected this. I looked down and breathe heavily.After calming myself, I looked at him and smiled.“That’s okay, I just tried my luck. Thank you.” I stood up and walked away.I called my Mom and told her what happened. As expected, she was disappointed.She told me she’ll talk to the Beatrix to inform them that I agreed to the engagement.Mom texted me to meet with Brx after my class. I sighed and replied, “Okay,” before putting my phone back inside my bag.I walked back to our room and sat in my seat. I was staring at the ceiling the whole time our professors are discussing in front.Drake did not attend the class for the first time. I was a bit guilty because I know it’s because of what I said. I’m planning to apologize to him once we saw each other again.After class, I went outside the school campu
A woman living in sorrow, guilt, sadness, and pain.A woman who chooses others rather than herself.A woman whom they call brave and outrageous.A woman of hope, as what they say, but what they don’t know is, she is hopeless.Drowning in her misery.***“Should I choose you over her then?” he asked me.
“Not enjoying the party?” a voice suddenly crack the silence in my head.“Oh heck! You scared the shit out of me!” I turned around only to see a tall and masculine man. He looked like the ones I see in movies. Serious and mysterious. I smirked at my thought.“Oh sorry miss. I saw you spacing out so I kind of interrupted the silence. Uh sorry?”
Smiles and Pain. Peace and Chaos.I wonder how a person can smile despite the pain he or she is feeling. I wonder how can there be peace at the center of chaos.How can they do that? Why can’t I do that?“Faster, Fely. We’ll be late!”
I woke up with a tear in my eyes. I touched my face and realized that my tears dried up. I have been crying myself to sleep last night. Again.And then I remember, who wouldn't cry when you're sister's friends don't like you. Who wouldn't cry when they made you as their laughing stock? Who wouldn't cry when your sister did not even mind it? Who wouldn’t cry when your sister is laughing with them? Who wouldn’t?“Fely? Are you ready?” I heard Ghale outside my bedroom. Funny how she acts like nothing happene
Drake has been spacing out. He does not pay attention to whatever I was saying. He would just stare above and sigh.“56,” I counted, and at last, I caught his attention. He had been like this since we walked out of the cafeteria. “It’s your 56th sigh.”“You’re counting?” he asked and laughed. “I’m fine,” he said. “I did not ask,” I replied and continued eating. We are in asecr
Author's Note:Hi! So I used a few Filipino words in this because I need it for my story. Despite that, I put translations to it.Thank you.***
“Are you okay?” Ghale asked me. She panicked earlier when a car almost hit me. Almost. Almost!Shit!What the heck is wrong with the driver? I was about to walk towards her car when suddenly, a car, driving so fast almost hit me. She was on the opposite side of the street with her car. I just went back because I left my phone and then I was almost hit!“I’m gonna hunt that driver down! Did you see the plate number?” she looked so mad while walking back and forth in front of me. We were beside her car, talking.“No. And don’t w
