Chapter- 12It was during their lunch break, after finishing the lunch earlier, Naomi, Julia, Leon, and Elijah went to the playground to hang out under the red maple tree. It’s their favorite hang-out spot. Beside them, a group of basket players discussing something. Since it’s a sports season, many players were practicing on the ground even Magnus, along with his teammates. Derek and Jorge were in the class to play a video game. “Today is so warm, isn’t it?” Julia said. “Yeah, and we don’t have classes, that’s so great more than anything,” Leon smiled. “But, I have an important class which I can’t skip and I need to go in ten minutes,” Naomi frowned. “Even if tha

Chapter- 14 The entire day she kept thinking about how she’s going to talk with Nick. He always teased and embarrassed her and she’s afraid to talk about this matter as he would do the same but how long she can stay calm. She needs everything to be stopped and she wanted a very normal relationship with him. That’s it.  At lunchtime, she came late, so she missed the opportunity to talk with Nickolas but she has decided to talk with him no matter what, so she messaged him: I need to talk to you. Just a moment later, she got a reply from him: Meet me in the playground now. Is he waiting for this? She thought and looked at Jorge.  “Hey, Jorge. I am going to the library,” Naomi said.

Chapter- 16 It was raining heavily in the evening, Naomi is in the library as she wanted a private moment for herself out of all the confusion that’s happening in her life. She just looked at the rain through the window.  It’s so beautiful outside and she wondered what Nickolas is doing now.  God! Why am I thinking about him? She frowned and turned to the entrance of the library. Derek entered looking at her and she huffed to find him here. Why Lord? Why? She thought and plastered a smile across her face.  She couldn't avoid him and at the same time, she couldn’t be with him.  “Hey, I thought I must be here?”  Derek said.  “Yeah, I just came here to study,” she answe

Chapter- 18 When Naomi was working on a math problem, she had doubts and she knew who would help her. It’s none other than her father, she went to her dad’s study room carrying her books.  Her dad asked her to come in when she knocked on the door.  “Hey, honey,” he smiled. It’s a very rare thing that he’s staying in the house at this time. He usually leaves to attend his meetings and other businesses but today he’s not at all working which is even more surprising.  “Can you help me solve this problem?” she asks. “Sure,” he nods.  “I thought you were intelligent enough to do these things and it's been so long since you came here as

Chapter- 20 Jorge was packing his stuff to leave, Naomi said. “I am coming with you,”  “We were going to Nick’s match,” Jorge said. He maintains that he doesn’t know anything about her relationship with Nick.  “Yeah, I know. I wanted to cheer him too,” she said. That’s surprising for both Derek and Jorge to see how much she has changed.  “Okay,” Jorge nodded and they all came out of the class to meet up with Magnus. Julia, Leon, and Elijah will be picked up by the driver later as they weren’t allowed to cut classes. Today is Nick’s final match and he has to win this to get a sports scholarship for his college admission. Though he’s good at boxing, he’s not going to continue it for more days. In fact, this is his last match of this year, in a few more m
