Chapter 18: Quarrel "What are you thinking and you cooked a lot of dishes? They are not going to finish everything." I said and laughed at Sera. Her face just looked amused and I don’t know why. "You know why I was doing this? It’s because I’m lacking an allowance. I have no allowance because of days without them. Now they will come back here at home, I’ll have an allowance again. I promise you that I’ll treat you to milk tea and a burger after this. You’ll never be alone in going to the mall. It’s just so sad that you didn’t invite me last time." I just laughed at her and shook my head. I know she doesn’t mean that. After all, I didn't even have her with me but her brother came along. I want to have a peace of mind to be able to think clearly but like a mushroom that just seems to have suggested Patry to appear in my sight. It's really a nuisance. Though, he did not even disturb me at all these past few days. He cannot do anything but leaves because I still drive him away no matter
Chapter 19: Encounter "Wow, someone gave you food again? He's making you fatter. Who is that?" I turned to Fern because of what he said. I don't know who always sends me food. What shall I answer? "Are you really sure it's not you? Didn't you say your love interest is me?" I teased and smiled at him maliciously. "I like you a lot but I don't have time to cook for you. I'm tired everyday, remember?" he said and lowered himself to his desk. I frowned and looked at the paper food container in front of me. I opened it and there.. it contains bacon, eggs, rice, and cheese sauce. I have no choice but to eat it because it's really delicious. The person who sends me food every day is a good cook because all of the food that he was sending to me were all delicious. But I still don’t know who it is. He didn't even want to introduce himself. Not even leaving a single note in every food container he’s giving. He always reaches out to my classmates like Prem and Boun who volunteered to put all
Chapter 20: Taste "Won't you speak?" I kept staring into the distance as if I couldn’t hear him. We are currently riding his bicycle and on our way to their house. As usual, I still haven't spoken to him since I split up with Fern and went home with him. I also don’t know why he was at the gate and waiting for me. I can't get an excuse from him because I also don't want to ask and even say a single word. How did he know we would be sent home? Anyway, that's just common sense because our uniform is stained. But how did he find out right away and even get to say goodbye to his teacher and left the university as easy as hello? I have a lot of questions but I don't want to talk. Why didn't he just go there with his girlfriend and comfort her. I’m sure that nothing else comes out from her mouth but pure lies. She didn't even say anything that’s right. She was really the one who did his own harm. I did not do anything. I'm not to blame for what happened. My conscience is clear and I shoul
Chapter 21: Ice Cream "Are you okay there, K? Your Dad and I will be going home at 23." I gulped and looked out the window. I looked at them again over the laptop and I could see the excitement in their eyes. "I'm okay here. They're really nice to me and I often excel in school. I still pass the quizzes and exams. You don't have to worry." I said calmly. "Why are you at home? It's Monday today, right? You’re not going to school?" Dad asked, making me nervous. I just laughed to relieve my nervousness. "I'm not going in today because there's an event at the university. They said that it’s okay if we can't go in. It's a waste of uniform if I still go." "What event? Isn't the Christmas Party the only event you're looking forward to this month?" Mom asked. I was scratching my head. "Publication of the magazine. We are no longer required to go to the campus. The admin is still arranging all the publication materials. It doesn't matter, tomorrow, the university will be open again for
Chapter 22: Heart attack "How long do you plan not to go to class? Are you accompanying me on my suspension? Your family doesn't know about this because I don't say it." "That’s why it’s better if you don’t tell them, right? It's better that they don't know this. You don't want this, it's like I've been suspended too?" I frowned as I looked at him. This is the third day of my suspension and Patry will actually pretend to be wearing a uniform and leave and then come back here to the house. Sera, Mommy G and uncle don't know about it because no one says. I didn't want to tell them because I knew they would scold Patry. Patry will be angry with me again for sure. I hissed at his logic. "You can't be absent for up to seven days. You may be dropped from the university in no time. You still don't have a reason why you were absent all of a sudden." "Okay then, tomorrow, I'll come in. Is that a problem?" he said as if nothing had happened. I just rolled my eyes secretly. I don't really
Chapter 23: Vote "What's the real score between you and Patry? Don't you dare to run away from me. I won't be silenced until I know what your relationship really is." I sighed. Tomorrow will be my last suspension day, then I can go to university. Monday to Friday was only a 5-day count last week. Weekends are not included so I still haven't entered today, which is Monday. When we were suspended, it was exactly Friday so the suspension started on Monday. I just want everything to fast forward. For sure, when we came back, we had to finish all the quizzes to make up for all that we’ve not taken. Our subject instructors accepted because the principal has already told them that we are not really at fault. This is Mommy G that’s beside me, I did nothing but run away from her questions these past few days. She can’t get answers from Patry either. After what happened, Patry entered in the following days because Mommy G and uncle also found out about him, not going to class for days. As exp
Chapter 24: Siblings Based on what Fern called this boy Fiat, I think this is his brother, then we immediately ran to their house. I just follow them wherever they go. Every road is crowded and the houses are really close together so it's noisy. Various odors also spread such as the smell of cigarettes, alcohol, dishes or spoiled cooking utensils, as well as detergents everywhere. We stopped running until we came to a door. Fern immediately opened the door that I think was their house when… "Surprise! Happy birthday, brother!" We were stunned and I looked at Fiat as well as, I think this is Fluke. His siblings are a girl and a boy. "Fiat said you fainted---" Fern said when her sister Fluke approached him. "It's a prank, brother! We just want to surprise you on your birthday!" she says happily. I was surprised at what she said. So, it's really Fern's birthday today? I do not know! I didn't greet him earlier! "It's a good thing you left, brother. It's like we can prepare a surpri
Chapter 25: Good night I looked at the time on my phone. Shocks. It's already 8 o'clock in the evening! I didn’t realize the time because of my interest in teaching Fluke and Fiat. I stood up and looked at Fern. "Fern, I need to go home." The two turned to me. "Oh, are you coming home now sister?" Fluke asked and I just nodded. Fern flinched. "I didn't even realize the time!" I just laughed. "Maybe Mommy G is worried about me. I should have gone home before dark. I didn't keep the promise. I enjoyed teaching your siblings ..." "Sister, are you going to come back here next time?" Fiat asked. I smiled. "Of course. I can't help it for sure. I will miss your jokes." I said and ruffled their hair. "Hey, I'll take you first. I can't help it because I told your Mommy G that I'll take you home. I don't want you to get hurt again and it's easy for the tricycle drivers in this street to have their tricks on you. There are a lot of crazy people here with us." said Fern and turned to her
