"Are we going to take your car?" Chrystyn said as she wore a jacket. She reached the cap from Ethan's cabinet and wore it.
"No. Many people will notice it," said Ethan as he buttons his jacket.
"How can you say so?"
I already attracted much attention from it.
"I just said so."
Chrystyn nodded. "I don't have a car. We can't just take a cab, can we?"
"I think we'll need Wick's help for this."
Chrystyn opened up her mouth. Ready to protest.
"Stop it. It's the only two of us now. Wick's ready to help. That makes us three. But that's all the force we h

Wick parked his car outside the Palace Towers.“Go straight to the parking lot in the basement,” said Ethan as he roamed his eyes around, looking for signs of Joseph.Wick proceeded to drive down the basement, find an empty spot and parked right there. Ethan and Chrystyn unbuckled their seatbelts.“Why are you still sitting there?” asked Ethan pertaining to Wick. “Come with us.”Wick unbuckled his seatbelt, took the car keys, and locked the door.“Why are you inviting me?” Wick asked as they started walking towards the back door of the building.“I wish to cook something for you as my way of saying thank you.”

"I should get going now," said Wick as he stood up from where he was sitting."I think I should get going, too. Troye will be here any minute now, and it would be bad if we are caught here with Wick," said Chrystyn.Ethan stood up and sighed. "Can I trust you, Wick?""Trust me on what?""Bringing Chrystyn home safely."Chrystyn interrupted. "Ethan, I can go home now on my own. Maybe they are not there anymore.""I thought what you are going through was just some mere issue," said Wick as he lowered his head. "I did not know it was this serious. I mean, this big, where they'll ambush you. I am sorry for taking it lightly."Ethan said, "We never expected this, too. But when Joseph attacked me, I knew that there would be more. And so, I hope that you'll bring Chrystyn home, safe and sound."Chrystyn smiled. "Okay. Let's go, Wick."The door closed. Wick and Chrystyn have just bid goodbye. He sat down on the sofa, just starin

Ethan woke up. Not from the sound of his alarm but the knock on his door."I have prepared breakfast. Let's eat," Troye said, smiling. His eyes were roaming around Ethan's bedroom."I am sorry it was such a mess here. I did not have the time to clean up," Ethan said as he picked up the clothes that were on the floor."Well, then. I will be waiting for you downstairs."Ethan smiled as a response. He tidied his things up a bit – arranged the clothes, segregated dirty and clean clothes, placed back the stuff where they belonged.He picked up Chad's jeans. It was still in a pouch. Instead of finally throwing it, he opened the cabinet and placed it there. They were once in a good term, yet he has not had the chance to return it. And now that they're on bad terms, it seems impossible.Where did he even get my number?Picking up his phone, he sat on the edge of his bed. He revisited the messages and reread Chad's message.

"These are what I have written for this day," said Troye as he placed his notebooks into the table. They're now in the living room with Ethan sitting on the carpet."Right. The one that you wrote last day, I still haven't read it," said Ethan. He was spacing out from time to time. It's like Chad's presence has disturbed him.Troye sat down beside him. "It's alright. We can read it right now, together.""Yeah, let's do that."Ethan started flipping the pages into the notebook. He admits that it was hard catching up on lessons the fact that he never attended the class. He scratched his forehead. "I think I can follow right here."Troye sat up straight, putting his arms on the couch as if his arms were on Ethan's shoulders.Ethan started writing down numbers, formulas, and theories. The more Troye gets confused, the more he's getting closer to Ethan. "I don't understand this part.""Yeah, maybe if you back off a little, then I can concen

As Ethan was about to open the door, the other end had already opened it. "Troye? I said I was just quick."Troye tilted his head and showed him the time. "It's been twenty minutes. I'm sure returning that bowl doesn't even take 5 minutes.""Yeah, we had chatted a little. I'm sorry I did not keep track of the time," Ethan said as he sat down on the couch and patted his lap. "You said you wanted to sleep on my lap. Come here."Troye placed his head comfortably on Ethan's lap. He felt Ethan brushing his hair, and so he did close his eyes. "This is heavenly."Ethan kept brushing Troye's hair, and he leaned his head on the couch. Little did he know he fell asleep.He woke up from the smell of the dish that was given by Chad earlier. He looked down and saw that Troye was not sleeping on his lap. Following the smell, he knew it came from the kitchen. There, it was Troye who was reheating the food with his apron. His broad shoulders move elegantly as he s

Ethan woke up."Hey, you are already awake."He rubbed his eyes and squinted it. "Troye?"He roamed his eyes around looking for Chad, but he was nowhere to be found anymore."Are you looking for the neighbor?" said Troye as he sat down on the corner of the bed.Ethan nodded. He remembered the conversation they had earlier. Was it just a dream? "He's a good man. He looked after you when I went out to buy us food.""When you arrived, I was asleep already?"Troye tilted his head, "You never woke up before that. What do you mean? Did you woke up at that time?""No. Right."Troye stood up and picked up the food with him. "Here, eat this.""Porridge? Troye, I am not sick. I just got a cut.""Just eat it. Also, you'll be discharged now because you only needed a stitch. I'll be processing it."Ethan heard the door closed. "Was it a dream? Did I dream about Chad and all of his sweet talks?"

Ethan bought apples on his way home earlier. He placed it into the counter and sliced some. He received a message from Chrystyn as he asked how did the university handle the issue.I’d like to tell you personally. I’ll go there. He replied.Are you okay now with going out? Another reply has been received.Yes. Also, Wick is with me. Don’t ask why. Ethan smiled and laughed as he read the text message. He knew that Chrystyn and Wick looked good together, but he did not anticipate that they would be forming a bond this fast. Indeed, everything is meant to be.There would be a lot of things to catch up to. And they need to prepare for their return tomorrow. As he waited, he prepared snacks and drinks, opening the fridge. He noticed that some snacks he bought were missing. Instead of getting inquisitive, he just let it pass instead.He placed the food right into the table in the living

"Tomorrow's the exam. You haven't had any tutoring session with Troye?" asked Chrystyn as she cleaned her things up.It has been a week since their return. That means that it has also been a week since Troye and Ethan talked. The rest has been peaceful too."Nah. He did not even bother to contact me after the last message that I have sent," said Ethan as he placed the last pen on his case."Well, what did you say?""I said to him that he shouldn't be contacting me from now on."Chrystyn chuckled. "You are crazy. Of course, he obliged.""This is stupid. I am acting like a girl," Ethan said as he sat down again on his seat."That's not acting like a girl, but you are just acting following your feelings."They stood up and went home in each of their ways.As Ethan's waiting for his cab, Joseph approached him in the back. "Are you alone?"He was startled. "What do you think you are doing now?""I'll find any di
