Chapter 20: What commitment are you talking about? All people around that willow tree looked at Jean with awe in their eyes. It looks like they admire Jean's commitment about our engagement. But that's not that important right now. What's important is why did Jean said those words. 'I don't understand.' Sitting above one of the willow trees here with a clear view of Jean and Rosine, I face palmed at this male lead. Until how long would I wait for the two of them to develop feelings for each other? Not long after, I saw Jean smiled and opened his mouth as he started to talk. "How about we become friends first, then I'll think my answer after that?" "Sure! I am willing to do that. Instead of my earlier confession, are you willing to be my friend, Jean Pierre Morris?" Now, what are they talking about? Is this some kind of business deal? Is this what Heather wants me to see, or there's more to it? I just don't understand what I can get from watching such a scene. 'If Heather is he

Chapter 22: HJA After changing her clothes from a boutique, they went back to the garden from earlier. It seemed like it was her favorite place in their school. There's a distance between them as they were sitting down on the bench. Keab had already went away before they even went to the boutique to let Heather change clothes. And now. She looked relieved as if she didn't like a ring. 'It doesn't matter. I will buy her one.' That's what he thought as he opened the box showing a very simple necklace inside. It wasn't expensive but it wasn't also that cheap.The chain is made of pure silver while the pendant is a simple half-moon, precisely a centimetre in length. It is embedded with small diamonds, and behind it, he made a carving of her initials: HJA. When she saw it, her eyes lit up in a moment then turned her head awa

Chapter 24: Can you do me a favor?  CHARACTER NAME: HeatherSKILLS: running away * * * I went home alone after that ordeal earlier. I never thought I can run quickly like that. I went home earlier than Jean. Like what his teammates said, they probably went to have some celebratory party after. I banged my head on my bed while continuously punching my pillow."Argh! I must be crazy!" For a moment there, I lost the composure 'Heather' had. I always keep a straight face as Heather and I have gotten used to that including all the people around me. That's why it must've been a shock to all those people, including me, that I acted out something I wouldn't normally do.The looks on their faces said it all. Even the announcer earlier had his hands trembling out of shock, and Jean had a smirk. "He…he reall

Chapter 26: A punishment?  I went to the bench after dancing with Jean for an hour. My ankles and feet were sore so I started massaging them. There were quite a lot of people in the open field dancing in the rhythm. I told Jean to dance with Rosine, though I don't want to watch how it will turn out. 'Will they be closer to each other after this?' I hope so. Not even ten minutes had passed and Jean came towards me grumpily telling me to go home. I was shocked as I saw Rosie's smirking face not far away for us. 'You don't have to smirk at me like that.' I felt shivers down my spine. Whatever it is, that smirk is a little bit shocking. Jean was clenching his jaws so hard and I can feel he is angry again. 'Why are you angry again?' He didn't said anything and just gave me a piggy back rode.

Chapter 28: No one dares to mess up my date "Why don't I know basic things about you?" "That's because you're not that interested in me." "But we grew up together." "We seldom talked." As I nibble on my ice cream, Jean suddenly asked why he didn't know many things about 'me'. I can't blame him because he was never interested in 'me' and he seldom talks. He frowned his forehead and continued eating ice cream. It feels like I really went out on a date. The weather is nice. After finishing the ice cream, I saw a stall where you will use a gun and shot the prizes. I felt excited and pointed Jean that stall."Are you a kid?" He raised his eyebrow as he asked this question. Come on! We don't have plans and I am here to have fun and not enjoy his hurtful remarks. H
