CHAPTER NINE
My days were spent nicely, with Zeeve tutoring me and Sancha's constant pestering and interrogation about what was going on with us. And if I say "nothing but academic," she'll roll her eyes at me, as if she's disappointed in what I've said.
What exactly is it that she wants me to say, anyway? When my name was linked to Zeeve, I had a lot of questions. Why would others think I like him or that he likes me? Is it because of the way we interact with each other or because we are always seen together that they believe we are in a relationship?
Zeeve had a lot of interactions with girls, so I'm not sure what's going on. As a band member, he interacts with a variety of individuals; I recall Sancha telling me that my cousin was flirting with the other members, but I never heard anything about it. I doubt if Auntie Clara is even aware that that happens, she has probably no idea what is going on with his daughter’s life.
I shook my head, shaking away the ideas out of

"Really? I want to come!" Zeeve and I exchanged side-by-side stares. He appeared to be in a bad mood and plainly wasn't pleased that her sister was accompanying us, but I simply smiled and nodded, assuring him that everything was all right. "No, Zeiara, you can’t. You should return home since the driver may be in the parking lot looking for you." With a shake of his head, Zeeve issued the order. “I had already requested the driver not to gohere since she I planned to visit your condominium, it turns out you're going out, so I might as well come with you." she said with a cute grin. "No!" "Yes! Please? Ate Ade, do you think it's all right with you?” she shifted her gaze to me. "O-Of course, that's not a problem!" I was stuttering. "See? She said it is okay for me to accompany the both of you, so could you please? Please, Ate Ade, say something! Let's try to persuade him! Say please with a cute eyes," she told me this as she demo

I went around looking for ideas on what to give to Zeeve's mother after I got it. I'd never seen her before, and I couldn't even tell what her face looked like either. Not even his mother's interests and loves are well-known to me at this point.I came up with a query as I pondered my situation. Why did I even agree on coming with him in the first place?Oh, Ade, you're undoubtedly smitten with his endearing smile a while ago.With each step, I shoved those thoughts away. I continued to glance around. Would his mother be interested in shoes, accessories, or perhaps bags?Why would I even bother to make a big deal about it? Of course, Zeeve will be the one to make the ultimate decision on what to get his mother for her birthday."Oh, my God! I really need to use the restroom. I'll leave you two alone for the time being." Zeiara exclaimed, a smile on her face. "The mother nature called me,” she added while laughing."All righ

"My dear brother! Take a look at who I'm with!"We both shifted our gaze in the direction of the voice's origin. As she went towards us, I noticed Zeiara's lively face and huge smile on her face. But she wasn't the only one...Despite the fact that she was with a girl who is exactly the same height as her, the girl exudes a powerful and sophisticated aura, in contrast to Zeiara who was looking bubbly and happy as she stared at her brother. However, as he noticed Zeeve standing behind me, a smile began to appear on her face.She has a round face with a not-so-pointed chin, which complements her dark brown eyes that are deep in color. Her nose is short and has a slight bend up at the end at the end. Despite the fact that her skin is pale, she has a delicate red tinge around her cheeks. She was tall, perhaps an inch or two taller than me, but her bright red dress and high heels made her appear even taller than she already was."Take a look, Farah was with me

My lips parted as a result of her motion, and my gaze remained on her for a few seconds longer, but her face had already changed; she was now smiling at Zeeve as she walked beside him."Are you all right, Ade?" Zeeve turned to face me when he uttered the question."Ye—-"When Farah spoke again, my remarks were cut off, causing Zeeve to turn in her direction."So, as I previously stated, will you be able to visit Mom on Sunday? She would be overjoyed to meet you again, I am pretty sure.” Farah's remark is beautifully conveyed.Again? So Zeeve has been there before; they must be really close to each other for them to have visited each other's parents. My bitterness spread like a wildfire to my system. So, what exactly are they? Do they have a special bond with one another?"That lady! I now see why she behaves in such a strange manner.” Zeiara said something in hushed tones while glancing at Farah.My brows furrowed in
Sweet Escape CHAPTER ONE
Failure is an unavoidable aspect of life, as well as a necessary component of any successful life. Failure is only an opportunity to start all over again, this time more wisely. Is failure, however, such an important part of everyone's life that it must be present at all times?“Come on, Ade, just do it. I'm confident you'll improve next time. Don't frown because it gives off a negative vibe. We don't want any bad vibes here, do we?” Sancha made a valiant effort to make me feel better. She would always utter this statement in every day that God had given her. Well, it's my fault because I consistently fail.“Do you believe I'll still be able to go graduate, Sancha? If Grandpa finds out about my grades, he'll be furious! I'm at a loss on what to do next.” I said it in a troublesome way.Failure has always been my companion; I don't recall ever excelling in any of my subjects. I always get an average if I don't receive a failing grade. I've

Zeeve Maxim Bullecer, Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering.I can't help but like his id photo; his hair was well trimmed, he wasn't even smiling, yet he looked great. His sloe-shaped eyes can enchant everyone who fell under his steady gaze.His features were defined nicely, and he's naturally photogenic!I cast a questioning glance at him, wondering why he was providing his identification. Was he under the impression that I care or even interested in this? Let your imagination go wild!"What is this for?" I asked."Take a photo of it and send it to your driver. Tell him I'm the last person you're with, and I'll take full responsibility if anything awful happens to you. Call him so that you may have a proper conversation with him."I locked my gaze on him, trying to figure out if he was serious, and he locked his gaze on me as well. No one wants to break a stare, but I swiftly avoided it when I felt like I was melting through his stare. I sighed

Monday morning came and went in the blink of an eye. I didn't do much during the weekend except lock myself in my room because I didn't want to go out and face Papa since I knew he'd simply ask about my schoolwork. For the time being, I didn't want to discuss the topic."Adeline, how are your grades?" he said authoritatively.This is what I mean! I closed my eyes tightly. We were having our breakfast together at this huge and wide table, just the two of us."It's going g-good, Papa," I said it briefly. I tried so hard not to stammer, but I couldn't help myself."Adeline, make certain. I don't want you to be a failure. Also, don't let Cielo wait too long for you after school, go home right after. Is it apparent that I don't want you hanging out with boys?""Yes, Papa."It was always like this, so I completed my meal with a dark mood surrounding us. I chose to remain silent and just respond when he asked because I am afraid that if I mak

"Good. Meet me at the library.” he said as he continued walkingI was left stunned and flustered.Wait, what are we going to do there?I want to smack myself for thinking that way. What else do you think you'll do in a library but read, study, or do school related works? I shook my head at what he said, I can still see her wide back from where I am. He might feel sorry for me because I was bullied by those girls because of my grades, which is why he wanted to help me study. I don't need his sympathy! He may not be serious about it.I continued walking inside the building, and when I arrived at our classroom, I noticed Sancha combing her hair and applying lipstick. When she lifted her gaze, our gazes locked."Oh, you're such a sneaky girl! What did I just hear about you being brought home by a man? Who is he?" she exclaimed excitedly as I sat down next to her.I gave her a snide look. Where did she get that?"Huh? What exactly do
