Two hours passed by and two classes were also finished. The bell of the school rang indicating that it is their break time. Rai walked out of the classroom along with Sheinna, Reiner, and Vince. Rai watched the large stream of students heading to the canteen.
Rai secretly sighed. He felt like it has been ages since he last saw this scene even though it only has been a day or two. Thinking this, Rai heaved a tired sigh. He suddenly felt exhausted. Even though he has seen this same scene, he is now a girl. This thought makes him feel bitter.
“Hm? What’s wrong, Raina?” Sheinna asked when he saw that Rai suddenly looked dispirited.
Rai looked at Sheinna and forced a smile. “Nothing.” He answered and shook his head. “Just… a large crowd makes me feel slightly uncomfortable.&rdqu
Damnโฆ why are these two always around us? Rai thought as he looked at Vince and Reiner who were following him and Sheinna as they returned to their classroom now. I just want to be alone with this pretty girl. He thought and looked at Sheinna who was walking beside him. Even though it is bad to lie to Sheinna, who is thinking that he is a girl, Rai could only apologize to her.Who made her be a girl right now? Even he (Raiver) wants to approach Sheinna as a man, well, that is, to hit on her. But unfortunately, right now, he is in a girlโs body. Well, his body was transformed into a girl. So, Rai doesnโt have a choice right now but to approach Sheinna as a girl. Alsoโฆ Sheinna might not really want to interact with him if he is in his male form.Reiner and Vince are walking behind Rai and Sheinna as they walk back to their classroom. The two have been following them, but they didnโt even buy anything earlier during the break. Now, Reiner and Vince are following them again. Just what are
โOh?โ Reinerโs brow raised as he looked at Vince while they walked towards their seats. โHave you heard of him? Based on your expression earlier when Raina introduced herself before and mentioned her cousin, you didnโt react so I thought that you didnโt know Raiver.โ He said.Rai who also returned to his seat with Sheinna perked up his ears to secretly listen to Reiner and Vinceโs conversation. And the female students who have finally noticed him on the doorway have scattered and also gone silent, thinking that โsheโ is angry because โherโ cousin was being talked behind her.โNot saying doesnโt mean that I do not know.โ Vince slowly spoke.โThen tell me what do you know of him?โ Reiner asked with his brow raised. It is because it is surprising for a genius like Vince to actually recall a notorious playboy, or a bad student, like Raiver Midton. He didnโt know that the notorious playboy, or a bad student Raiver Midton would not only be sitting in front of them (though in a girl form) an
Raiโs face is filled with disbelief, but after recalling Vinceโs words, he finally had a recollection of it. But, that time, he was just passing by and defended a โpoorโ student who was obviously bullied. Who would have thought that it would be Vincent Dauncy?! He is not poor at all! He is actually rich and powerful! So how can he be โpoorโ?!If Rai knew at that time that it was Vince, heโฆ Well, he will still help him. After all, one should do good deeds every day. Also, even if it is a guy, bullying is still not good. They are fellow students no matter how powerful oneโs family is!Now, Rai understood why Vince didnโt have any reaction after hearing his (Raiver) name from their classmates before. Because he actually has a good impression of him! โSo, I โ my c โ cousin actuallyโฆโ he muttered and bit his tongue, almost slipping on his words. โHe helped you before, so you have a good impression of him?โ he said.Vince nodded in affirmation. โEven though he has a bad attitude, his heart
Whoever I give my heart to? Rai thought as a sneer appeared on his lips while he stared at the door where the female student that he had made out just now had left. The pleasure that he felt after his making out with the female student just now was instantly gone after she said those words to him before she left. He treated this as the female studentโs revenge because he didnโt take her (virginity) right then and there earlier despite her begging.She obviously likes him, and she wanted to give herself (her virginity) to him as the one that she has chosen. Unfortunately (for her), Rai didnโt take her virginity and just let both of them reach the peak of pleasure and came. So, Rai felt that she avenged herself because of what he did (refused) to her by telling him those words that could ruin Raiโs mood.And now, Raiโs satisfied mood was totally ruined.โYo~โ a playful voice jeered from the window.Rai didnโt need to turn to look who it was. โShane. Do you have voyeuristic interests now
โI am lucky?!โ Shane frowned as he looked at Rai. โI was also turned into a girl!โ he told Rai.โYes, but you can turn back to a guy just by eating apples!โ Rai said as he looked at Shane with envious eyes. Earlier, Shane told him that the condition for him to turn back into a guy was to eat an apple or a few of them. Rai thought that was the trigger of Shaneโs curse, so it was reasonable. But, if just eating an apple could turn Shane back instantly into a guy, then that would be very unfair to Rai. So, Shane said that the goddess told him that he could turn back into a guy for four hours if he ate an apple. And the maximum number of apples that he could eat are just two.No wonder Rai would see Sheinna, or now Shane, bring apples with him. But, he never ate them. It is because as soon as he eats an apple, Shane would turn back into a guy. And the countdown would then start for him. So, Shane canโt take a risk of when he will turn back into a girl again, that is why he chose to rema
Midton residence.Raiโs expression is complicated as he looks at Shane who is sitting across from him and his mind is still processing what Shane has told him.โWhat?โ Shane asked as he raised his brow at him while looking at him. โYou think that I am disgusting because I like a fellow guy?โ he asked.Even though his expression looked stern, Rai could see that there is a faint apprehension in Shaneโs eyes. โNo.โ he answered.โThen why is your reaction like that?โ Shane asked.โWellโฆ because it was unexpectedโฆโ Rai honestly answered. โI mean, I was used to you being a playboy and now, you tell me that you became a playboy to make a guy jealous?โ he said and looked at Shane with a bewildered gaze. โI meanโฆ I know that you havenโt touched any of those girls, but my impression of you as a playboyโฆ wellโฆโ he muttered as he tried to organize his thoughts.Shane fell silent and his face turned red when he also realized how ridiculous his actions were.โThen, you even want to make Reiner jeal
โA senior female studentโฆ?โ Shane muttered. โWhatโs her name?โ he asked.โI canโt recall anymoreโฆโ Rai answered as he lowered his gaze.Shane nodded in understanding. Rai must be wanting to forget that woman as soon as possible. But, he was mistaken on this one. Because it is not due to the scar that woman has left on Rai that Rai wanted to forget her name and doesnโt want to remember it. It is because Rai really couldnโt recall her name, nor even her face.Even though it was just like yesterday that it happened โ that Raiโs heart was broken, Rai felt like it also has been ages since it passed. Or else, he wouldnโt have forgotten that womanโs name and face. For him to be hurt by such a forgettable woman, Rai must have been bewitched by her or else he would have recalled her name and face.โWhat did she do to you?โ Shane asked. โAndโฆ what happened between you two?โ he added.Rai raised his head and looked at Shane. โI met her in the library.โ He answered. โIt happened during our second
Shane looked exasperatedly at Raiver. His gaze as if he is looking at an idiot. โHave you forgotten that you are a girl right now?โ he asked him.Rai looked at him. โBut I can turn into a guy at midnight.โ He said. โAlsoโฆ I heard some of them are curious about where I went. Just one text message and they will definitely rush to where I am.โ He said and winked. Thinking of those times that he missed deflowering those v*rg*n female students, he sighed, filled with regrets.That charming body hidden by the uniformโฆ that sight of slender thighs when he lifts their skirt and those two fair and soft lumps after he unbuttoned their top. Thenโฆ that budding area between their legs after he pulls down their underwearโฆ thinking these made his heart beat faster.Shane doesnโt need to guess what Rai is thinking as he looked at Raiโs eyes that remained the same showing that fiery look of desire. Rai is fantasizing s*xually again.Shane sighed, feeling helpless. โDo whatever you want.โ He said and w
The next day.“So… Cole was actually also a ‘chosen one’ like Spade and Heart?” Rai muttered as they looked at Cole in surprise after Stelle told them everything that Cole confessed to Stelle.In fact, that Friday night, it was supposed to be Stelle who should confess to Cole. And Stelle did, as himself. But before Stelle could confess to Cole as Stella, before Stelle could even escape to change to Stella, Cole suddenly stopped him. And before Stelle could react to ask Cole why did he stop him, Cole suddenly confessed to him, too. Not only of Cole liking him, too, but also Cole as Diamond!One could imagine the shock that Stelle felt that time as he listened to Cole tell him everything, from him being chosen by the ‘gods’ – the King and Queen, up to him meeting Spade and then Heart. But, Spade and Heart don’t know him as Cole, since he appeared before them as just a ball of light.“Yes… I
Midton residence.“What the… hell – “ Rai muttered under his breath as he looked at Vince who was eating his breakfast while seated next to him. A stunned expression is still on Rai’s face while his eyes are wide in disbelief. He really didn’t expect what he heard Vince say to him earlier.“Second is because you are hiding something from me.” Vince said. “It was because last night, you were there as Raina.” He said as he looked at the stunned Rai in the eyes. “You are Raina, Rai. I know everything.” He told him.Rai rubbed his hands on his face, feeling as if he is Harry Potter and Vince is Hagrid earlier as that scene in Sorcerer’s Stone played in his mind where Hagrid told Harry that Harry is a wizard. But jokes aside… &
Compared to the shocking happening on Rai’s side, Shane and Reiner’s meeting is surprisingly calm. Reiner had never found Shane last night, and after a sleepless night, he saw Shane’s message to him this morning telling him to come and meet him. Attached in the message is a location. Reiner then knew that Shane is finally willing to tell him the truth – everything that he has experienced when he was cursed. And he couldn’t thank him more, since he knows how difficult it was for Shane to tell him others about it, including him who he is his lover.Reiner knows that Shane is different from Stelle, who told him about him being cursed. Not only because Reiner is Stelle’s brother, but Stelle is highly dependent on Reiner, too. Stelle is also timid and easily panics, so Stelle immediately told Reiner about him being accidentally cursed. That is why Reiner was surprised that St
But, something unexpected happened on Rai’s side, too. He was just about to eat breakfast after ending his call with Stelle, promising him that he, along with Shane and the others, would see him later. It was then that the butler called him telling him that someone came to see him.“Who is it?” Rai asked as he fixed his clothes to make himself look more presentable.“It was Vincent Dauncy.” The butler answered.Rai’s feet instantly froze when he heard the name. “What?!” he exclaimed. He didn’t expect Vince to come so early this morning. More like, why would Vince come here in the first place?! Is it to find Raina to ask why she confessed to him last night?Rai frowned as he lowered his gaze.
“How did you find out that Raiver was also cursed?” Reiner asked as he and Vince walked around the grove to try looking for Shane in case Shane hasn’t left yet."When I saw Raiver changed, too." Vince answered.Reiner was shocked. "You saw him?!" he exclaimed. “Wait, when?” he asked.“Earlier, when I chased him.” Vince said."But based from your tone, you are convinced before that, that Raiver was cursed.” Reiner said as his forehead knitted.“Yes. And I confirmed it earlier.” Vince explained.“… so it was your suspicion before?” Reiner sighed.Vince looked
Reiner was chasing Shane but because Shane ran into the grove, Reiner was unable to find him for an hour. Shane was really good at hiding, Reiner knows this. So, Reiner can only sigh in defeat and catch his breath.“Reiner.” Vince called from behind him.Reiner turned and saw Vince. He was about to speak, only to freeze when he saw that Vince was holding a black leather shoe. He felt speechless.“Raiver’s?” Reiner spoke, though there is no need to ask. Until now, he still can’t believe that Raina is actually Raiver Midton. But Vince would not lie to him, so he has no choice but to believe it.Vince nodded in affirmation and looked in the direction where Rai disappeared. Reiner didn’t speak and just recalled his and Vince’s
Rai saw Reiner and Shane join them on the dance floor and his heart beat even faster due to nervousness. He saw Spade and the other winked at him, encouraging him. Then, he saw Kaiser who smiled at him, mouthing at him to go for it. But, he didn’t see Stelle. Rai doesn’t know whether Stelle has already confessed to Cole and changed Stella to confess to him againas Stella.Rai turned back to Shane and saw that Shane looked very relaxed. Then, Rai understood that Shane must have let go of all of his worries. Rai can’t help but smile, feeling happy for Shane. His nervousness also disappeared.“Rai?” Vince called when he saw that Rai smiled. “Did something good happen?” he asked.Rai nodded and chuckled. “Yes. I feel very happy.” He answered.
Rai and Shane are sitting on their seats along with Spade who is sitting on Rai’s other side while they stare at the food on the round table. Rynier was sitting beside Spade, while Reiner sat on Shane’s other side. So, among them, it is only Rai and Vince who were separated and are actually seated across from each other. But, they know that Shane and Reiner, and Spade and Rynier, are pairs of couples. They just can’t separate these couples, right?As for Kaiser and Stelle, they have already seen them earlier and are waiting for them to finish talking with their friends and classmates before going to their table to share a table with them. With the presence of the alumni of the school, there is no order in the seating nor the tables except that the area at the front is for the teachers and alumni. Rynier should be with them, but Rynier naturally chose to be with his younger brother Rai and
One month later.“Oh, my gosh! The young miss really looks like the live version of Cinderella!” the makeup artists and hair stylists exclaimed as they looked at the girl in front of them who was standing in front of the mirror, staring at herself.The girl’s hair is tied in a high bun with some of her curled hair locks kissing her cheeks that were blushed red. Her eyelashes are long, fanning her blue eyes as she blinks. Her lips are red like blood, which is a stark contrast to her blue ball gown. But, even if her ball gown is not the same as Cinderella, they still can’t help but think of Cinderella as they look at her. On top of her head is a diamond tiara instead of a blue hairband like Cinderella’s.The girl, who is actually a guy inside, pursed his lips in a forced smile. “Tha
