The Charmer and the Beast 21. The Dinner Invitation
I have done a lot of pieces ever since I joined our school publication before. I've written poems, articles, reviews, and other things that can be put in paper that would get the interest of the readers. When I became the Editor-in-chief, I did pretty much all the work- from assigning my members topics, relaying our adviser's messages to our members, editing the pieces my members submitted, and finalizing everything so we can submit our compiled works for print up.I was never into socializing but being the school paper's Editor-in-chief gave me the opportunity to lead. Even if it didn't help with my being introverted, I can say I've learned something from leading. I can say it's not the best, but it's not the worst either.When Sean, Taylor, and I decided to wrap up our stay at the café, I was a little bit all over the place because I'll be going to the office later. Although I believe it was still early so I just decided to go back to the dorm with Taylor to rest for a bit. I need t
The Charmer and the Beast 22. The Dinner
Robin gave me an assignment- write a review on a show happening here in the University this coming Friday. The review will be up for next week's issue so I have nothing to do yet. Also, the show will be on Friday so I have to wait for that in order to write a review. For now, they gave me access to the Weekly Mirror's previous reviews on different shows here in the University- may it be a musical, drama, or whatsoever.And that's exactly what I did the entire time I was there at the office. I made myself busy by reading all of those pieces and taking note of the important things that should be put into the review.Actually, I'm scared about writing a review because I don't know if it's going to be good or bad. I haven't written one except for the book reviews I uploaded online for the books that I have read. Mostly of those reviews only tackle the good parts of the book. I don't usually put bad reviews because I was scared of being too honest. I feel like being honest will set me up f
The Charmer and the Beast 23. The Hoodie and the Rain
If I look back at my past social events, I wouldn't find myself surrounded with a lot of people, much less hanging out with a huge crowd. It's always just me, or me and my sisters, or me and my family, or me and my very few friends. I've never hung out with almost 15 people. That's already a lot for me. While we were waiting for our orders, I was dreading the time it would all arrive. Because that would mean they will start to ask me questions and I'm not sure if I can answer all of them. I hope it won't be too personal or offensive. I wish it will all just be fun and games, something that won't make me want to hide somewhere. While we're at it, I texted Taylor and told her I'll be having dinner with the Weekly Mirror team. She even expressed her concern and asked if I could handle it. She knows I'm not into this kind of huge crowd. But I told her not to worry. She even left me a message that made me smile. Text me if you're getting out of place or if you're feeling uncomfortable,
The Charmer and the Beast 24. The Terms and Conditions
I felt like I was floating when I was walking to my room. I just realized what I did and I don't even know what to do now. Should I go back and tell him to go home? But it's still raining! Should I just proceed and face whatever this is that I have done? Sometimes I want to smack my head for not thinking through things. I reached my room and felt the mass weighing on my shoulder. Upon entering, I found Taylor occupying the study table. She looked at me and saw the surprise and concern on her face upon seeing me wet all over. "Did you play under the rain?" She asked. She quickly got me m
The Charmer and the Beast 25. The Weird Things in Her Chest
For the first time since I entered college, I didn't feel any annoyance towards Flint. I'm not sure if this vexation has already stopped or if it was just on pause. Nevertheless, I was quite glad I didn't have to be cautious about seeing him.Last night when I went back to our room from the lobby, I felt at peace. Taylor was even smiling at me when I entered. I asked her why she didn't come down, and she said she just had other things to do. I didn't try to make it a big deal and just proceeded to bed.And just this morning, I have this weird feeling that I can conquer everything. I'm not usually positive. In fact, I'm usually anxious, especially when I have to enter my first class of the day. I have this weird thought that I'll mess up. But surprisingly, this morning was different. I was so full of energy that when I greeted Sean wh
The Charmer and the Beast 26. The Compliment
I guess it was too easy for me to change moods, because the following day, from a jolly mood, I was down to an awful mood. Plus, I kind of woke up late, so when I went to the bathroom, all the stalls were already occupied. It made my mood even worse. I knew I'd be late for class.After the bathroom, I grabbed whatever clothes I could grab from my closet- a huge shirt and leggings. I really don't have the luxury of time to choose my outfit, so I just settled with it. I don't care if I look like a lost kid.My hair was still wet when I left the dorm. I chose to wear sneakers so I was able to run as fast as I could. I even bumped into a few people and I had to apologize a lot of times. This is really a bad day for me.I reached the classroom and the class had indeed started. Th
The Charmer and the Beast 27. The Cousin and the Pictures
I was excused from going to the office today because, right after my classes, was the show that I had to see. So after my classes, I bade goodbye to Sean. He even reminded me of the dinner we're gonna have later. His other friends would be there and he said he'd introduce us to them. I just nodded. I'll just mind that later. There is another thing I have to mind first at this moment.I hurried to the AVR to catch the show. I was told it was kind of delayed so I'm not gonna miss anything. When I got there, the venue was already quite full. It was a paid show and we had to purchase a ticket to actually see the show. But in our case, since we're part of the school publication, we were given free passes.I was kind of uneasy because of the flowing crowd. I don't know any of these people. I'm basically alone and I don't like it.
The Charmer and the Beast 28. The Families
I didn't get enough sleep last night. Aside from the review that I needed to write, I was up all night because of the pictures Flint sent me. He's not supposed to take so many pictures of me! There was an event that needed his entire attention. Was he that determined to divide his attention? I don't think so.I woke up alone in our room. Taylor informed me last night that she'll be going home early this morning, so I did not really question why she's no longer around. It feels empty, but I have to get up and move because my whole family will be here later to spend the weekend here with me.I woke up to a smell of coffee so I wondered where it was coming from when there was no one else here. I got up and went to the table, to see a to-go cup of coffee courtesy of Taylor. There was a note that said:Got the chance to get some breakfast so I included some for you. Gotta go early. Have a fun weekend with your fam, Jas!-TaytayI automatically smiled upon reading Taylor's note. She can rea
