Sorry for the late update! Hope you enjoy it!
Lovesick"WELL PLAYED! Thank you for participating here today. Y'all really did a very good game. I hate to say this, but we will only choose those who standout and play their position well." Blake crossed his arms over his stomach while letting out a small grin.I sat down to the nearest bleachers and massaged my forehead. My head is fucking aching in the middle of playing the scrimmage. Although we won the match, I am quite certain that I would not be able to get on the team since my play at the last five minutes sucks, still I got to score twenty-six points. If I was just really feeling good, I might score more and eat them alive. One more thing, I kinda lost my appetite in playing. It's a good thing that no one ever saw me standing like an idiot while I was looking at Leon like an abandoned cat the moment he went to Blake. I need to erase the filthy and reeking emotion I've felt I admitted to myself. Even if I don't fully understand the way it was, I just don't wanna think about
In Love? I REFUSED to believe whatever words of wisdom Ricky was trying to inculcate to me. Jealousy doesn't mean you're already in love with someone. We all have different perspectives in life and I do not agree with what his mother told him. And for the record, I didn't get jealous because Lea's with another guy. I was just putting a show. Nothing more, nothing less. Though, I am not quite certain if it was effective."Ricky, you spit shits. I'm not in love. That's like the last thing I would do in my life. I will never fall in love," I said and looked away. "Okay, okay! Why you mad, dude? So defensive." He clicked his tongue. My hands suddenly felt cold and sweaty. I am nervous and I don't know why, and I don't want to figure it out as well. I pretended to chill, like I wasn't affected about what he said at all, but when the moment I asked them to leave me first alone even if they didn't want to because Mom was not here yet, I was baffled with a lot of questions in my mind and
Attention"WELCOME back, bro! First day of the training and you were absent," Ricky said with his annoying smirk again. After that terrifying, confusing, and undefinable night at the hospital, I failed to go to school yesterday as I was manifesting. Mom didn't let me go and insisted that I should rest for the whole day because I might have a relapse of my fever. Mom even wanted to drop me by and see me off at Carlyle for she has a flight in the afternoon with her friends too, but as usual I refused even though Ivan was okay with it since I just got sick. However, I wanted to be consistent and took the bus to school. One more thing, I am just used to being a commuter now after a few weeks. I even prefer it though it's hard to catch some bus sometimes. I also assumed that I would get kicked out of our team because I didn't attend yesterday. Fortunately, Ivan talked to our coach and they totally understood my situation, especially that they actually saw how I passed out straight on th
Caramel Macchiato FOR A SECOND, I don’t know how to deal with my life decisions anymore. "No way, dude! This ain't real!" Ricky's eyes widened ten times than usual. 'Yeah. Screw me.'I can't do anything about it now. I already told Lea that I would pursue her to be my real girlfriend, but damn, I don't like her. I am just going to use her, that is all the purpose of this madness. She was speechless earlier and just like what I have expected, she's more than happy as ever that it fucking makes me feel guilty. Yet, I am still winning the game. The wild lion is mad and it does have an effect on him. I am certain that I am going to check his kiss on my list in no time. I know how it will continue; Leon will be furious about me pursuing his sister for real to be my girlfriend, he will nag about it and he will never stop begging me to stay away from his sister, and then once more, I will give him my condition to kiss me, and voila! I bet everyone's going to be proud of me and I am stil
House"I MADE the coffee, Sir," I admitted in a brave voice. Ivan deeply shut his eyes before he gave me death stares as if I reached the bottom of his patience. Quickly after he turned his head to them, his facial expression changed in a second and apologetically smiled at them.I bit my lower lip. Yes, it is my fault because I intentionally made it taste really bitter, but I am not bitter just like what Blake mentioned. Why would I be? I just wanted to make fun sometimes and see his reaction. "I am deeply sorry for this, Sir. He is our new barista and is still taking brewing classes. If you will let us, we will replace your coffee and a cake of your choice in the house," Ivan negotiated then side-eyed me. "Leonardo, you go make the coffee instead." "It's fine, I know him. I guess, Iris has been really caught up and exhausted for the past few days," said Blake. He let out a little smile. I don't know if it's just me, but his tone sounds a bit offhanded and insincere? Was he just
HeartlessMY HEART racing started to double as I frantically followed Leon to Lea's bedroom. We have been walking for minutes and it seems like time is running slow.I was only facing down on my feet and I feel like I'm just walking around in circles. As I was unfocused on what was happening, I didn't notice Leon stopped in front of me and accidentally banged my head on his hard back. I grimaced in pain. Lea almost fell on the ground, who was dreamingly sleeping due to being out of balance if only Leon had not supported me by holding my arm. My eyes widened a bit. I pursed my lips and remained standing. No one was talking not until the door opened in front of us, revealing Lea's room possibly based on its interior design. I was hesitant to go inside at first because I am pretty sure I am certainly not welcome here, he didn't really have a choice earlier and just let me in, so I am afraid if I make a single move, I'm gonna be dead. We are not on good terms now that I decided to pursu
Pass Or Play?"HOW have you been? You looked like you were hit by an unpredictable thunderstorm. What's up with you?""Your face says 'bullshit' bro."I showed Ricky and Johnny my middle finger and said nothing. I am not in the mood to either speak or move, I just want to sleep. I am so tired physically and mentally. It seems like my body is surrendering on its own, not listening to my brain. And I am not the reason why I am like this. These were all Leon's fault. He didn't let me sleep properly last night because of so many crumbling and crashing thoughts that I stayed up until five in the morning. Although I was confident that I'm still going to do anything according to my plan, his words still fumbled in my mind which made it stop working today. "Seriously, dude. You need to refresh yourself with some positive thoughts. The intramurals are coming, you don't wanna mess up," Johnny said in concern. "Exactly. I am having second thoughts if I still wanna join the team." "The fuck,
FlirtingI TOOK A DEEP BREATH, drenching in sweats, tired from the training, and scrimmage. And even now, I still couldn't believe what happened earlier. I tried to act like I wasn't disappointed, furious, and annoyed, but truly at the top of my head, I am damn mad and frustrated! It was a fucking draw! No one won between the two of us! And what's even making me angry is that's how he likes it! It was intentional to miss the score and I couldn't even make a fuss at him because our team mates arrived, even Blake, who went straight to him. "Good game, everyone! It was nice seeing all of you to have been honing your skills, especially you, Iris. You're a wild wolf!" The gym was covered by his laughter. But I don't need a special mention right now! I need a rematch from Leon! He's so unfair and I fucking knew it already. I'm so dumb! All of their attention shifted on me. I forced myself to curve my lips into a wide smile. "I was just feelin' it," I joked with an awkward chuckle after
