CHAPTER 21
I don't know what to feel. Should I be happy because my brother was the only one who found me? Or should I be nervous and scared? I don't know what he will do. Will he bring me home? But I am not ready to face my parents yet.
Whatever. I should go to him and hug him first. I missed him!
I was about to take steps towards him when I suddenly saw two figures appeared to his side. The people that I never thought I'd see. The people I wished I could never see.
"Marigold, my dear!!" Mom yelled and ran to my direction. I don't know if she's just faking it but she's acting like a worried mother.
I just stood here waiting for her to come nearer. I don't know how I should react. How did they find me?
Mom hugged me tightly. I didn't hug back for I didn't know if she's really worried about me or she's just being hypocritical.
"You're so stupid! You made us so worried!!" She released the hug and cupped my face. I stared at her in the eyes. I want to read

I swayed my body with a smile on my face as I walked my way to the classroom. Well, who wouldn't be? I am happy that I finally get along with my family, although I'm still a little bit shy when I'm with them.Before I could step in the building where my classroom is situated, I grabbed the headphone my brother gave to me which I placed inside my bag. I put it on and music started to play. I don't know what will happen if I step inside the classroom. Earlier I went to the powder room first and I made Ella go on ahead so now here I am, walking alone.I'm still the introverted kind of person just like the way I am. I don't want any connection with my surroundings especially inside the classroom. I don't even know if Ella would return to her old self or have she changed?When I stood at the entrance, my eyes widened when all of my classmates were gazing to my direction. I don't know if I should continue to step in or not. They were all wearing smiles on their faces.

"Aurelia?" I called Neil's fiancè who was sitting beside the vacant seat that belongs to Neil. He's still not around so probably he'll be absent again so I'm asking Aurelia where he is right now."Yes?" She innocently looked at me."Why is your fiancè absent? I mean, it's been 2 days already.""He doesn't really tell me where he is. He doesn't care about me." She said, smiling. Okay? But why is she smiling?I just smiled at her and went back to copying the notes on the board. She's kinda weird. Does she really care about his fiancè? Or does she really love him?The morning class has ended but still Neil didn't show up. Is he really trying to make absences without even leaving an excuse letter?I grabbed my headphone from my bag and put it on. I wanna be alone for now. I'm sitting here at the canteen, probably assuming that Neil could be here. I don't know why I even thought about that but whatever.I sensed people

"What are you doing here, young men?" The maidservant asked Kit and Kenneth with a smile on her face as she opened the door for us. She, then, shifted her gaze on me and Ella, wondering who we are. "And who are these beautiful ladies with you?""Hi, I'm Ella!" Ella joyfully stated which made the maidservant gasp in surprise. She never thought Ella would be full of energy.I felt Ella elbowed me so I cleared my throat. I know she wants me to introduce myself as well."And I'm Marigold." A fake smile flashed on my lips."Marigold? I think I have heard of that name somewhere but I can't clearly remember." She thought deeply as she placed her index finger on her chin."Who are they, Cecil?" A woman's voice was heard inside the mansion. Somewhat young, could Neil possibly have a sister?"The boys Kit and Kenneth are here with their girlfriends, young miss." The maidservant answered as she looked behind her back where the woman is standing. I coul

Neil told me he was the one who called my family to fetch me. I am so grateful because of what he did. He thought I would get mad at him but it's the opposite. I don't know what he told them to make them love me, but what matters is it worked. And I will forever be thankful to him."I saw that," Ella spoke behind me so I gasped in surprise. I was looking at myself in the mirror when she suddenly entered my room. I didn't realize she did until she spoke."What are you doing? Don't you know how to knock?" I uttered in disbelief. She just pouted and acted cute which makes it annoying."You go to your room, Ella." I coldly spoke."No. I still wanna talk to you, you know. We saw you hugging Neil. And I'm jealous."I frowned as I faced her. "I thought you're into my brother.""I was just kidding. I'm very loyal to Monty." She said as she crossed her arms, acting proud."Whatever." I rolled my eyes and faced the mirror again."You see

"What are you saying, Neil?" I moved closer to him as my forehead knotted. I didn't get him. I thought we were okay. I thought I would finally be able to experience having a long-lasting friendship. Will it end like this?"I want her to stay away from you, Gold. From all of us." Neil didn't remove his glare on her. I made him face me by grabbing his arm. He now faced me, but he just showed the cold expression on his face."Why are you doing this?" I asked him."I am keeping you away from harm. Now, do what I say or—""Why would I follow you?! You are just ruining my friendship with Ella, Neil! I thought everything is okay. I've been alone all these years and today, not anymore. All because of you, Kit, Kenneth, Ella and my family! But now, you ruined it!! Why?!!" I yelled at him. My chest feels heavy. My eyes started to form tears and I felt like I'm going to explode. I just can't believe him. Why does he have to separate Ella and I?"You don

"So, where's Ella?" My brother asked me the moment I stepped inside the mansion. He was sitting at the couch as he was watching the television. He's also holding a bucket of popcorn. He was focused on it and I don't know how he knew that I went home alone."She... She stayed at one of my classmate's place. We have a by pair project so..." I just thought about that reason just now. I don't want them to get worried. I'll solve this problem myself. I'll surely bring Ella back so we could live together again.I just stared at the ceiling as I intertwined my hands and placed them on my chest. I looked like a dead person with opened eyes. I just can't remove the scene off my mind. Ella's brother was the creepy guy who killed her own family. But she told me before that she didn't know him. She told me he was the guy who kept on following them wherever they go. According to what she told me, she clearly doesn't know him. Was she lying to me?I heaved a

I was sitting with Neil's fellow ROTC officers. They were his senior and all they do here is talk about him. They say he is a good officer. Everyone likes him.I was staring at him standing infront of his platoon on the field. Under the heat of the sun, he's commanding them to do some stuffs. I can't help but smile as I watch him. He looks so cool."By the way, we saw you with him. Are you his girlfriend?" One of them asked.I immediately looked at them beside me and gulped. Something within me is celebrating, or maybe it's just the butterflies in my stomach. They're making me insane!"N-no, I am just a friend," I answered them, feeling a little bit uncomfortable. Imagine talking to an ROTC officer. They look really intimidating with their uniforms on."Are you sure you are just a friend? I don't think so, though. He looks at you different from the way he looks at other girls.""H-he's a bully, and he thin

"Is there something wrong here?" We turned around to face the guy who spoke. I sensed something heavy and dark so I faced Neil beside me. He was clenching his fists. He was frowning, and it clearly tells me that he didn't like seeing the guy. I looked at the guy and he was wearing an ROTC officer's uniform. The difference is that he came from a different school. So he was that officer the others were talking about. He's a good-looking guy and just by his appearance, I know he's a kind person. He was smiling at Neil, didn't bother to look at him the same way how Neil looks at him right now."I'd expected that I'd be seeing you again. You haven't changed a bit." The guy told Neil."What the hell are you doing here?" Neil stated in a cold voice. He has calmed a little bit."Don't worry. I came here for the formation. Not for you.""Neil..." The girl who was sitting at the bench walked past us and stood beside the guy. "Can we talk?"
