Chapter 18: Do Consider
| Do Consider |
The next day, I woke up with swollen eyes and I regretted crying last night. Seems like I need to conceal it before going to work. Lazily, I got off of my ass on my bed.Reina grabs her early breakfast with her new set of friends. Well, they have a group project to work on.As much as I want to stay here all day to avoid Linus, but I can't, because I have work.I remind myself that I don't need to be affected by the things that happened last night. If he tries to talk to me. I will allow him. We need to clear things out.Reina was right. If I continue to avoid it, nothing will happen—we can't solve the problems between us. I think I'm not ready for that.I hope he will get absent today. I overheard him and his friend the other day, saying that they have to undergo training this weekend, in preparation for their fight next week.My memories were still clear aboutRelated chapters
Unexpected Fate Chapter 19: The Confession
| The Confession |WE decided to talk in the park near the library. Linus is famous and I don’t want to risk my image nor my reputation being ruined by his fans.This is the only park I know that is far from the dorms and establishments. Sometimes we go here during our free time. Nena found this place.I sat on the bench, and he sat on the other side.I’ve heard his deep sigh as if he’s nervous or what, but I didn’t take a glimpse. I look up in the sky. It was dark and shady. The night is getting deep as the moon shines fully. It was just half but it was bright and beautiful. The stars that surround it were shimmering, it looks like crystals when they first occupy with the light. It seems like they’re giving me hope every day. If I can see them twinkling, there’s always be hope for everything.Back to my thoughts, I will not let myself denying again what I truly feel
Unexpected Fate Chapter 20: The Coffee
| The Coffee |How would I know that he will take the courting seriously? He said he will court me in private. That no one will know or notice. I don’t know if I will believe him, but how would I know if he’s sincere if I won’t let him?Another day had passed, and it seems like he’s doing nothing. Well, he’s absent yesterday and the other day. I know he’s busy, and I won’t let myself be the one who makes a move even if I want to and misses him—yes, I miss him. Until the time when I accepted my feelings, it seems like my day is not complete if I don’t see him. Weird as it sounds but it is how I feel.Monday morning, Reina told me that Linus sees her at the north wing, and he asked for my number. Knowing Reina, of course, she gave it. And now, I’m like a fool waiting for a text or call.I don’t usually use my phone not unless it was my parents or Reina
Unexpected Fate Chapter 21: The Quiz
| The Quiz |Does kissing a part of courting? I know it was just a smack, but it was still a KISS. And how dare he to kiss me. We’re not into a relationship yet. ‘Yet?’ asked the corner of my mind. ‘So, you want him to be your boyfriend?’ a thought that echoed inside my head.Damn! how can I sleep when he keeps on making my mind haywire? Reina on the other side was already snoring and me… I’m still wide awake. I don’t know but I just keep on rolling in my small bed, trying to forget what just happened a while ago. But I can’t. It seems like the thought doesn’t want to vanish.That jerk! He will see you tomorrow! He will regret what he did.I was awakened by a small pinch in my cheek, as I open my eyes, I saw Reina. “Rise and shine, Becca. Does Linus didn’t make you sleep? Seems you sleep late last night, huh?”“What ti
Unexpected Fate Chapter 22: Officially On
| Officially On | I don’t want to doubt his confession to me. But I can’t stop myself not to worry about when this courtship will last. If I will accept him now, should it be worth it? Isn’t that too fast? But isn’t that it’s the relationship that matters the most than the courtship? If I will not give it a try, how will I know that he is sincere pursuing me? And even if we’re already in a relationship, he can still court me. I remember what my mother said when I was in junior high school. ‘If a man loves you, he will do everything to make your relationship works. And if you were in the stage that it seems like one of you is falling out of love, try to talk about it and as much as possible, fix it. And if one of you can’t hold it anymore, then maybe he’s not meant for you.’ And I think I can’t find it out when I will not give a chance to myself to experience how to be love and how to love someone. Ms. Dory is finally back, and I talk to her i
Unexpected Fate Chapter 23: First Date
| First Date |The next day, the weather seems not fine—it’s windy. The sun was covered by those thick, silvery clouds. The trees were swaying as the leaves fall from them. It’s colder than the other day. I did my daily routine and this time; Reina woke up early and we both grabbed our breakfast at the café.Greeted by the wind-cold breeze, I smiled at Linus who was outside the café waiting for us to finish our food. We’re classmates in Lit and there’s nothing wrong about it if he waits for me. But Reina keeps on teasing us, and it could catch attention from others. Thus, I needed to shove her away and thank goodness, she parts ways and walks in a different direction.Linus and I continued to walk, keeping our distance, pretending on discussing our upcoming examination in Lit.“Do you want to watch me fight on Friday?” suddenly, he asked.I opened
Unexpected Fate Chapter 24: She Initiated
| She Initiated |Friday night is the day of his fight. Nena, Reina, and I decided to watch the fight together. Waiting for Nena to come out of her dorm, I peeked on my phone. But to my dismay, I didn’t receive any text from him. Though, we already talked about this yesterday. And I know he’s busy preparing, so, I will understand.“Gosh, how long with your friend took showering, Becca? It’s almost eight-thirty,” Reina grumbled as she keeps on texting on her phone.“Will you and Bill hang out this break?” I asked as I kicked the small stone in front of my left foot.“Yeah. We have already talked about it. We will visit his grandma and of course, went on a date,” she said, seems happy about it.“I will ask Linus if he wants to visit our hometown,” I said and shocked registered on her face.“Wait? What? You will ask Linus
Unexpected Fate Chapter 25: The Invitation
|The Invitation |Fighting in a cage with this combative sport is dangerous. There were so many possibilities or consequences you may have been through. Watching Linus outside the cage while stretching seems I will have a heart attack. I don’t know, but when the first time that I saw him fight, I felt nothing—not this nervous as I am now.Why does he seem to relax?If I will compare underground fighting to having a quiz bee or any contests, you will feel the same, the jitters will always be present. Like before the day of the contests, you can’t sleep, you will think about your strategy, you will visualize your opponent, etcetera. How about Linus? Does he visualize his opponent before the day of the fight? Like if his opponent will be taller than him, shorter if they have the same strength?If it was me, I don’t know if I can sleep. Well, he may be used to it, because he’s been fighting many times, I guess.
Unexpected Fate Chapter 26: Found Out
| Found Out |I didn’t get a good sleep because of excitement. Well, he’s coming! I gently tapped Reina’s face so she will wake up, good thing, she did.“Hmm… what time is it?” she asked me.I walked towards my closet to get some clothes. Just a few. Besides, I got lots of them at home.“Seven.”“What time we will go home?”“After lunch,” I replied.“Did you call your dad to pick us up?” she asked as she stretches her arms and yawned.“Nope. We will surprise them,” I answered and sat down at the wooden chair as I sipped on my coffee. “Come, let’s eat,” I said.“Whoa! I guess you woke up early, huh. Excited to go home?” She stood up and walk in my direction. She yawned again as she gets her cup of coffee.“Sort of,” I replied. I will not tell her yet that Linus
