Semua Bab WE'RE DESTINED: Bab 21 - Bab 30

[JAZ AMANDA POV] It is the first night Anika will sleep here at home for the start of our project, and as I expected, not with Gwen Stacy. I'm glad we will spend the night together for this. After eating dinner, we immediately went to the bedroom to start what should have started. I don't know, but I noticed Anika's dress, looking at it deliberately. Her clothes fit her sexy body shape. Before my brain could think of anything worse, I quickly averted my gaze. Distractions will not ruin this pretty moment, and my focus on our project will prioritize. While explaining what I wanted to happen in our project, I noticed that Anika is also reliable regarding mechanical and electrical things. "So you wanted to create electricity through the sun?" Anika's brow rose as she clarified things. "Yeah. We will use a solar panel to provide electricity to our solar generator. With the help of the power inverter, we could produce electricity through the ray from the sun captured by the solar pa

[NARRATOR] The following day when Anika enters school, Jaz is immediately what her eyes are looking for. Even though it annoyed her yesterday, she was still worried, wondering what Jaz's problem was."Hi, Anika! Good morning .." Gwen greeted, her face clear, contrary to Anika's."Oh, Hi .." Anika replied sparingly. She wasn't in the mood."Let's go into the room together?" Gwen asked. The woman never lost sight of her."Oh, sure." Her short response while walking forward. She was out of focus, thinking about Jaz Amanda, who kept her up late last night.[ANIKA HODGENS POV]I hoped to see Jaz inside the room, but the annoying girl wasn't there yet. Lowering my bag in my chair and stared at Jaz's place.Will I talk to her or just let her be later?"How's our project, Anika? When do we start doing that?" Gwen checked again. Can't she figure out I wasn't in the condition to speak?"Good morning, class!" Greetings from our English teacher."Good morning!" Everyone retorted altogether except

"Oh! Jaz Amanda.. What a surprise! I thought you had already vanished.." She smirked and then continued to go away. I ignored her, proceeding to my class. Our classroom is just next to each other. The class ended, and when I got home, I tried to talk to Dad again about marriage. I know I will marry after college, but I don't know who. Dad said nothing about it. The only thing he kept telling me was that it was for my future and the company.Mom, who I thought would be my ally, also did nothing but follow Dad, and they both planned it. Nanny Cynthia is the only one I can approach and tell my inside, but still, she can't do anything at the end of the day. I will still marry someone I don't love or even know. I have had so much respect and love for my parents. They are the best parents on earth, but I was wrong. My parents also have a hidden agenda. Why would they want me to marry a person I don't love? Dad even told me to get to know the person before committing, so I wouldn't h

[JAZ AMANDA POV] It's Saturday night which would be the perfect to go out alone. I ended up in a bar drinking, even if I hated the taste of liquor, just to forget everything bothering my mind for a moment.I even sang a song for Anika but not revealing her in the crowd. Speaking of her, I didn't expect to see her. "Would you mind enlightening me? I don't exactly understand what you are going through.." Her hug seemed to stop the storm that was ravaging my entire being. Anika is probably also wondering who I was talking about earlier that I secretly love. Should I confess to her now? "I'm marrying the person I don't love or even know, Anika.." After I let go of her embrace, I seemed to run out of breath as I told her one of the things bothering me. "What?! Then why did you agree?" Her face showed displeasure. "It is my parents' desire, and I can't disobey them, Anika." I feel like I'm gonna explode, and I'm ready to cry a river. "Fuck! Are you crazy? Are you that naive? That's no

[ANIKA HODGENS POV] I swallowed steadily when Jaz and I were sides by side. It isn't our first time sleeping together, but I feel different now, as if it's our first time. I shifted, turning to her before asking. "Do I know the person you secretly love?" She laughed softly. What's funny about my question? "Hmm, no .." I was damn curious about who's the lucky guy, but I guess it will be a waste now that Jaz is getting to marry someone else. "Let me ask you again. Don't you want to come with me? We can rent a house together to save money. Let's share the expenses.You're smart, Jaz. It will be easy for you to find a job after graduation." "That is not what I'm afraid of, Anika. My parents. I can't lose them.." "Okay. I give up. Our situation may be different. Our parents are unlike. That's why I can't blame you.." Jaz also turned around. Now we are talking face to face.Suddenly the surroundings became quiet, and we just looked at each other. "How are you and Gwen? She likes you
