It is already midnight when we got home. My mom was just sleeping the whole ride, while I try to be my usual self.
I removed all my thoughts during my stay in the hospital and tried to be happy as much as possible.
“Good night, mom.” I kissed her g
My eyes were shut closed waiting what will happen next. I jumped from my seat when their doorbell rang.I saw Lucas stood up and went to their main door.I gulped continuously. What was that? Those kinds of moments are the thing that I only witness in a book, and I couldn’t believe that it almost happened to me. My breathing was ragged and my heart is beating wildly. Stay still, heart, please! I heard voices of men, and realized that it was Matt, Lucas’ another visitor. Both of th
“Miss Grumpy.” Stacey suddenly speaks. “I’m just going to return something to Nurse Kelly, alright?” She said and as if her rounded eyes were talking to me, too.“Where am I supposed to go?” This is my chance to stalk away. Finally!“Go to the field already.” She instructed.“Okay.” I let out a small laugh then Stacey waved his hand good bye.“Lay!” I was about to walk away when she called me once more. “I will bombard your house for the next two weeks if y
I’ve wanted to tell it to Stacey, all of it. I know she got my back, always, but if telling this to her will risk the part where she will know about my ‘planned’ life, then it is better off this way.I am lost in my thought when someone hugged me and cover my eyes with his hand. I know it is a guy, and I know who it was because of his scent. His embrace was soft and comforting.“Stop crying. I am here.” Matt said soothingly. I don’t have the strength to push him, I just want to bury myself and cry until my tears were all gone.“I am here. You
I entered the campus while my eyes were stuck on my Biology notebook. Today is the start of exam week. There is a lot of pressure and a bunch of discussions that needed to be reviewed. This is very different compared from when I was just home-schooling.“Alayna!” It was Stacey. She was wearing her hair into a chignon pigtails, white top and of course her signature mini-skirt. I really don’t agree with Stacey losing some weight, she looked really really different. I mean, I don’t know why she insists to have a body like J.Lo… J.Lo is thick, while Stacey is making herself skinnier. I scrapped the thought and continued reading my
Friday came and I could totally say that my mind is stress-free right now. After taking our exam in Piano Skills I, I invited Matt to hang out with me in the fountain.“Where is Stacey?” Matt asked as he chews vigorously his corndog.“Oh, she is with Ethan, her crush, asking him to be her buddy?” I trailed off and looked at the blooming view in this garden. “Damn. We need more Stacey in this world.” I looked at Matt hesitantly.
“Alayna, a French boy is looking for you.” Karen called out while I was in my room. I looked at myself in the mirror one last time, pale as ever, but my wardrobe improved a little as Karen lend me some of her old dress. But I still prefer to wear a pair of chucks instead of that two inches high-heel she was suggesting.I went downstairs and found Matt comfortably sitting on our couch.“You are stunning.” Matt went to me then he took my hand.“Matt, take care of my daughter.” Karen emerged from the kitchen and she was eating a… is that a croissant? “And this croissant tastes
“Lay, what have you done?” It was Stacey, her eye brows furrowed. We were on the bus stop, waiting for the bus to come. I just leaned my head on the post and closed my eyes for a bit.“Nothing. I just didn’t get enough sleep during weekends.” I answered lazily. This is because of Lucas Nielsen, who kept pestering my mind with his sudden I miss you on me. I couldn’t sleep properly. My heart is being weird every time I will recall that scenario. I know for a fact there are dark circles under my eyes. Th
Tomorrow morning, I’ve decided to buy Stacey a gift for her birthday party later. It was nice that her birthday is a holiday here in Torshavn, meaning, there are no classes for today.I simply wore a black top, denim jeans, and a hoodie. Karen was with William in the wet market, so I just went out and walked myself in the bus stop.I have three gift choices for Stacey, I have this in mind since last week. I took out my mini-notebook, containing the list of gifts for her and read it one by one.First, I thought of giving her a hair clip. I find her very pretty when her hai
