“I had been seeing you with Chayim this past few weeks, huh.”
“It was just a mere interaction.”
“So going at the café every morning was your kind of 'mere interaction'?”
I rolled my eyes. “What do you need, Rebellious?”
He folded his arms, a grin was plastered on his lips.
“I was just asking,” he laughed. “You’re not fond of going out with someone especially a man to your favorite café.”
I didn’t give him a response instead I continue flipping the pages of my book. There’s no point in answering his question, he’ll just going to throw question over and over again. He’s that annoying.
“Curious.” He hummed. “It’s curious that you’re starting to be comfortable with a guy other than me and my twin.”
“It’s called being friendly, ass.”
He laughed. Rebellious wouldn’t just stop being so nosy, e?
“Can you just go and flirt with your girlfriend instead?” I raised a brow. “You’re getting into my nerves.”

Our teacher in philosophy asked us. What is living?Some of my classmates said: living is being alive, not dead, and progressing. Some just answered to be alive or alive. They all have different meanings of what living is, but nonetheless they're just the same.According to Merriam Webster dictionary: living is having life or the condition of being alive. Aristotle defined that every living thing has a certain form, part of which explains the thing's being alive. In Plato's definition, the meaning of life is in attaining the highest form of knowledge, which is the idea or form of the good, from which all good and just things derive utility and value. Meanwhile in Philosophy, living is having a purpose in life or an overall vision or attitude towards life.There are many definitions or descriptions of living, but they all have just one thought.For me, what is living?I certainly don't know or have any idea of what is living despite of those, I stil
When you thought you already experienced the worst, but since you're a bad luck just like itself; it became wretched.I remained frozen at my spot. My mind became blank. All I did was to stare at my father with confusion and shock because of what he blurted out as soon as I got home."Y-You are getting married?"My voice became a whisper. It feels like the news slapped me. I staggered backwards while shaking my head. I could feel the coldness of my hands as I lifted my head and look at my father."Why?" that question suddenly came out in my mouth.He eyed me with his expressionless eyes. For the past thirteen years, I never seen again the softness of his eyes whenever he'll look at me. It was dull and lifeless."You don't want me to be happy?" his eyebrows furrowed and shook his head. "Is this the way of you telling me that you're opposed to this?"I bit my lower lip. "I'm just shock," I bow down my head and stare at my white shoes.
"How did your brain contain all those topics?!" Ave shook her head while her arms clanging on me. We are heading to Top Thai which her cousin ordered us to. It's the place where we usually eat. "Like how you memorized the different veins in our Physiology." I sarcastically say that made her chuckle in response. She maybe a nagger, but she's one of the most outstanding med students here in our university. The New York University must be proud in having her. "You gave me tips that's why!" she poked my forehead. "Your photographic memory is more amazing!" "That's because I always study," I rolled my eyes. "That's your in born talent!" She scoffed at me and I just laughed. "You're really humble, aren't you?" I shook my head. "You're a top student here at NYU." "What do you think of yourself?" "I'm a human." "Rory!" I just laughed and waved at her frowning cousin who's looking at u
Instead of backing away, I kept my eyes on him and observe his features. A blade nose and burrowed cheekbones, his appearance only to die for. His curls were midnight black. I couldn't help to notice leathery black strands flopping over his face which to my distaste was veiling some of his enticing features. Over all, he’s a perfect description of an angel. "He might melt." I heard someone clear their throat. I blinked and looked down at my open textbook. Ave’s chuckles made my lips twitched. I bit my lower lip and resumed reading. What’s wrong with me?! I haven’t been this interested to a guy! I gripped my book trying to calm myself. "Have you finished your plates?" I refrained from looking in front of me and put my attention on what I’m reading. "Half of it," the man’s baritone reply to Neveah. My grip on the textbook page tightened. The pages crumpled. I winced and ran my hand over it before fixing its tangled part.
“What is love?” “Love is Neveah.” “Ew! Corny!” My lips formed into thin line as I heard my friends voices. They won’t never get tired arguing. I sigh. As if they would, that’s their favorite hobby to do. Seriously, they always fight and argue even in the smallest thing. “Could you please let me be in peace?” Goodness. I could feel my patience slowly disappearing. I’m a psych student and one of our traits were having a very long patience. But if you’re with this kind of people, I don’t know if you can be really patient. “Sorry Rue,” Rebel glared at his cousin before looking at me. “Astraea’s acting like a kid, again.” I roll my eyes when I saw how Ave’s face reddened, indicating that she’s going to blow up. “I’m not a kid!” she even stomped her feet onto the ground while shooting a glare at Rebel. My eyes went down on my books before taking a deep sigh. I quietly gather all my things on my arms and stood
“She really said those?!” Neveah’s laugh echoed around the corner of the restaurant.“That’s Rue for you,” Rebel chuckles.“Can you stop talking about it?” I raised a brow. “You’re making a show.”The couple just laugh at me. I roll my eyes. I think this issue will last for weeks. Knowing them, they won’t stop taking about it.“Rory’s the kind of person who will make you feel; like you’re the stupidest person alive.”Seriously? When will they stop? They keep recalling what happened in our class.“Someone’s going to join us,” Neveah smile widely. “I hope you don’t mind.”“We won’t,” Ave smirks. “But Rory will.”Oh great.Suddenly, I heard murmurs and giggles behind us.“He’s really a hottie!”“Hold me girl! I think I will fai
It’s weekend but instead of resting I keep myself busy in reviewing our previous topics. I often hear my friends complainants about how engrossed I am in reading books and in studying. This is a part of my life. I couldn’t tell why do I never get tired or bored from those. It’s like my own kind of energy. I heaved a deep sigh and stretch my arms. My eyes look down on my phone when I heard it rang. My lips crooked up as I answer Rebel’s call. “You’re not going to bury yourself in books, are you?” I chuckle. He didn’t even say ‘hello’. “What do you think?” I hummed. Rebel groaned on the other line. I pursed my lips. I bet he’ll go here and drag me to his place. “I’ll fetch you.” As expected, he’s not going to stop until he keeps me away from my books! “Whatever.” I roll my eyes and ended the call. As soon as I ended the call, I immediately headed towards the bathroom. My thoughts started to swirl around my mind li
“I’m surprised that you’re going out.”“I know the word ‘fun’ after all.”“Glad that you know the word unlike the person that I knew.”I stop myself from rolling my eyes. The asshole’s technically pertaining to me. I know the word ‘fun’ I’m not stupid!How I wish I have the power to teleport to any places. Because honestly speaking, I wanted to disappear right now. This is Rebel’s fault. I should have been having fun reading my textbooks instead of getting myself into this place.“Rory’s getting bored,” Neveah said in a singsong voice.“Yes, so let me get out of here.” I demanded.She shakes her head then smile mischievously. I snickered. Should I be nervous because of her smile?Yes, I should be, but too late.“Yay! Double date!”Can I just disappear right now? Goodness! The couple s
