Lahat ng Kabanata ng What Took You So Long: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 10

Cassy lies in her bed and trying to rock herself to sleep. She is thinking about her childhood friend, Leon. His gesture today really touches her heart. She can still vividly remember how he meets him 13 years ago when they moved next to them. She stopped walking in front of a pale and thin boy and asked, “What’s your name?”. The boy was startled. He looked up at her and she can obviously see how shy he is.  “I—m, mmm—y name is…” he utters. “Hmnnn..” she tries to meet his eyes as she waits for him to say his name. “My name is … Leonorado but my mom calls me Leon..” he said in a shy voice.

After his conversation with Nathan, Dash spoke to his teachers that he will be joining the school club’s activity. As the one leading Overwrite (this is the name of their club), he wanted to be hands-on with the registration of the possible members of the club.   Overwrite is a writer’s club. Nowadays, most youths keep themselves busy by playing games. This results in poor communication with their friends and especially with their family. With Overwrite, he believes that he can encourage the youth to express what they feel using the writings. He exactly knows how challenging it is to say what you feel so why not turn them into stories and poems.  As he walks inside the gym, he can easily see their club’s tent as the members printed out a very large tarpaulin with OVERWRITE written on it.

Cassy frowned when she heard what Demi said but she couldn't help but give her a sharp look.What’s wrong with this girl? Why isn't she running out of things to say?Urghhh… She took a deep breath. One more word, you’ll see what you are looking for. She shook her head and ignored Demi.She went back to her seat.“God!” she said in a very low voice but Leon who’s sitting beside him was still able to hear it.“Hey, just don’t mind her. She’s one of Dash’ minions.” Leon said while smiling at her.She giggled with the thought. God, if only these girls know what kind of guy Dash is, she’s sure they wouldn’t even imagine having a crush on him. “I am Demi. I joined the club because…” she turned her eyes around and stopped at Dash’s direction, “ because of our club leader,” projecting her sweetest smile.God! Really, some girls cannot show even just a little decency. Cassy just rolled her eyes. She won’t stoop down on that lev

President : Dashielle Sarmiento Vice President: Secretary: Treasurer:   Cassy and Leon arrived a bit early in the club’s room. Mika and Dash are already there. Mika warmly greeted them and as expected Dash just smiled and continued to look at his notebook.   How can he be so snobbish? As if he hasn’t been with her and Leon before.   “Please get your seat and we will wait for the others before we start,” Mika said to them as she guided them.   “Thank you, Mika!” Leon smiled sweetly at her

Cassy felt a little bit dizzy. When her classmates entered the room, she could see the worry that was written all over her face. Then, when she looked at her mother, there was also the worry in her eyes.She couldn't help but wonder why she was brought to the hospital. Was her condition serious? Was she ill?She never felt any pain on any part of her body so how could it be possible for her to be sick?It didn't take a while and she saw her mother coming inside the room.Her mother forced a smile on her lips when she saw her looking at her."What happened, mom?" She couldn't help but asked. She saw when her mother's eyes started to roam. She saw that her mother started to become uneasy.She couldn't figure out why but she suddenly felt her heart was beating so fast."M--- mom," she called out her mother. "Am I dying?"Her mother shook her head."No, dear. You are fine. Don't say that," her mother quickly answered."So, why you look so wor
