Chapter Twenty OneI totally lost my appetite after that two guys annoyed me. I looked at Rocelia who's eating her meals, happily. Seems like she's unaffected. How did she do that?"What's wrong? You don't like the taste of stew?" She asked curiously when she noticed me staring at her.I shook my head."I have lost my appetite.""Oh.." her lips formed in 'O'."I'll just wait for you 'til you finish your food then we'll go back to our classroom." I stood up and took my own tray."But hey! Where are you going?" She wondered, holding the fork with noodles on it."Put this on their sink?" I stated the obvious as I lifted up the tray.She nod her head slowly, have understood me."Okay, cutie pie!""Cringe!" I snorted but she just laughed and showed me a finger heart.

Chapter Twenty ThreeI took a half-bath the moment I entered my room. I'm brushing my teeth while looking at my reflection on the plane mirror when I remember what Akira said earlier. I stopped and furrowed my brows. My grip on the toothbrush have tightened.The nerve of her to predict that Rocelia will betray me soon like what my friends before did to me when I'm already at the verge of trusting them too much.She doesn't know anything. She doesn't know what I'm feeling. She's probably just insecure because I got a new best friend unlike her, still hanging out with her bitches."Sir Martin wants you to join the dinner, Ms. Vanez." Anya slightly bowed her head after I opened the door for her and she told me that.I looked at her with no emotion on my face. He's still pushing it, isn't he? Aren't he gets tired for even at once?"Okay. I'll go th

Chapter Twenty FiveThe limousine stopped in front of Clinton High's gate. I took my things and went outside but my mind is being clouded by the recent interaction between me and Innov.Even though I'm distracted by my thoughts, I still followed what he told me. I ate the ramen he made for me and took the pain reliever he gave me. It's effective. I'm having hangover no more. But his latest actions just replaced the bothersome and now, I'm still bothered about it.My thoughts had blew away by the sudden wind of Rocelia's presence, she's right there, standing lonely while glancing at her wristwatch every seconds like as if she's waiting for someone and when her eyes found me, it sparkled. She immediately ran towards my direction."I'm super excited! I'm gonna guide you later!" She started jumping giggly.While I got curious."Guide me to what?""P

Chapter Twenty Seven|Vanez Amelia Arnaez|"Your problem, not mine." My mouth parted a bit after his cold response.My problem, not his? Of course, it's my own problem to solve! Then, why is he here? When he should not be here! He's not helping at all. His presence is just a nuisance for me.I slowly narrowed my eyes and gave him a sharp look."What are you still doing here? It's my own problem to solve, right? So leave. Fucking leave me alone." I said firmly.His brows almost met as he glued his gaze to me.  I fought his stares again. I made sure mine was more intense and unbreakable. I'm expecting he would look away the second time and give up first but it didn't happen. I tightened my fists, impatiently waiting for his defeat.I also sharpened my eyes but still, he didn't even blink. He's staring at me with the same intensity. I can

Chapter Twenty NineIt is hard to accept the fact that the last family I have didn't even support me. Instead, he chose his new family over me. He always does. How did he forget about his own daughter's another milestone in life?I may be a rebel daughter but deep inside, I'm still simping for the care and support he can give. He's the first person I'm expecting to support me, and other part of me is wondering if he's even proud of me? Like what he is to Akira.Am I that so bad to be discarded? All I want is to have his support because he's the only family left with me. If mom was just alive, I know I have my number one fan beside me. She would also go to school and show me how proud she is.She's my number one supporter.I felt a hot liquid pooling in both corner of my eyes so as the sudden lump stocked on my throat. I closed my eyes and let the morning wind breezed throu
