All Chapters of My High School Romance: Chapter 61 - Chapter 68

HEIJI’s POVREBECCA’S PARTED LIPS made me want to trace them with my thumb and I wonder how soft they would feel on it. And I couldn’t deny how amused I am whenever her eyes shift between surprise and scrutinizing look – as if she was trying to unveil and examine an art piece. I never really like it when someone stares at me intently but with Rebecca’s stare – oh, I’ll welcome it with all my heart!But not now, Heiji.I am very much aware about the current situation between her and Mira. I do not want to add anything else on her plate. She must have been totally blown by that revelation – to a point that she drank all the way just to forget.Though, dammit!I’m not gonna lie that it did occur to me to take advantage of the situation. There’s a high chance that I could sway her heart this time. There’s a study showing that when girls are vulnerable, they most likely build strong attachment to the person who’s there for them every time. It’s like the damsel in distress syndrome. However,

REBECCA’S POVBLACK CAFÉLONG SILENCE REIGNED between me and Mira. I sipped on my latte before rubbing both of my hands together. It was weirdly cold…Or am I just anxious?“Rebecca I---” She paused, before taking a deep breath again. “I really am sorry.”My eyes darted away from here. “I’m not gonna hide the fact that I was utterly hurt. I just cannot fathom why you had to lie to me.”“I didn’t!” Mira shook her head aggressively with a pleading voice. She even reached for my arm that led me to look back at her. “I just chose not to tell you anything about it. As much I wanted to save my dummy fiancé here, he’s actually the one who kept telling lies about Ibarra.”I let out a frustrated sigh and massage my temple. “That idiot.”“You know how he was during our high school years. Jud blindly believed that you are the one for him. The way he loved you before was so pure and I’ve been a witness to that. For those who doesn’t know us much would immediately think that you two are together.”

REBECCA’s POV(THE PAST)“No, no, no!” Ginny squished my cheeks with one hand and looked at me dismayed. “Rebecca? How hard is it for you to smile naturally?”I grunted before pouting. “I’m trying! The thought of me, smiling to hundreds of students is making me hurl.”Hera rested her hand on her waist and raised her brow. “Girl, the moment you show that awkward smile of yours, we’ll lose the battle. Wanna waste our effort?”My back straightened and immediately shook my head. “No, ma’am!”“Then do as we say and we’ll ace this pageant.”I sighed. “You know I hate spotlight. I hate it when people look at me, specifically on stage.”“You can look at me, Love.” Judiel appeared out of nowhere with a beam on his lips.My eyes squinted.“Then, what if you see Mira in front of you?” Hera pulled Mira close, and she looked at me with confused stare.“What game is this?” She asked.I burst out laughing. “Please… not my best friend.”Hera tilted her head. “Hmmm… Jeremy?”My brows furrowed like aski

IBARRA’s POV(THE PAST – BALLROOM)“Hello again, dearie!” Judiel’s mom pulled Rebecca by the wrist – leaving her completely baffled. “Now… Time for you to change.”“W-What? Wait! Now?” Rebecca looked like she was suddenly called upon for a battle, slightly panicking.I raised my brow as she they walked towards the portable dressing room. She pushed her in and reached for the dress that the maid was handing.“Here. Try this.” Mrs. Fernandez gave it to Rebecca and slide the curtain shut.“W-What just happened?” Ginny looked at Judiel, demanding for answer.Hera crossed her arms. “Is this the dress up thing you and Rebecca were talking about earlier?”Judiel sighed. Paused for a moment to massage his temple and continued. “Rebecca has been mom’s personal ‘barbie doll’ since we were young. At first, she enjoyed it. Who wouldn’t want to wear pretty dresses right? But mom has been forcing her to do this for a long time.”“Poor bestie. But I’d say this is still a win.” Mira crossed stood up f
