Paul’s POV “Is she here already?” I asked one of her classmates as I arrived in their room. “Who? Tacia?” I looked at her classmate when she asked me. I shooked my head as I turn around to go back to my room. I purposely came here earlier than usual to greet her but she’s not here. I’ve been busy these days since we’re dealing with the MV we’re making. I missed her so much, she didn’t talk to me for the whole sembreak, is she sure about rejecting my confession? I went back to our room with a disappointment. Aeron and Josh are still not here since it’s really early right now, instead of staying here, thinking what would I do to be noticed by her, I decided to go near the gate to wait for her. I don’t know why I’m doing this after the pretend thingy but all I know is I want to fix this thing with her, I want to turn that pretend thingy to surreal thing, not because I want to slap to Tacia that I don’t love her anymore and I will never get married to her, but because I want to be wi

“How’s your back?” I looked at Paul when he spoke. We’re currently here in the park, he asked me last night to meet him tonight, so I just said yes. “I’m okay, it’s not that hurt,” I answer. I turned my eyes to the cars moving in front of us. I don’t know why he wants to meet me, I also don’t know why I said ‘yes’ when he asked me. “Did you eat already?” he asked again, I nodded my head without looking at him. “We ate our dinner with Ethan earlier,” I answered, I can see from my peripheral vision that he looked at me but I stayed looking in front of me. “He’s my childhood friend, he recently came back here in Philippines. I have to guide him since he don’t know the university, we’re still friends even though we didn’t talk for years,” I narrated when he was about to speak. I know that he wanted to know Ethan, I know that he wanted to clear everything, like where I met Ethan and why I’m with Ethan after rejecting him. “Does he likes you?” he asked, I turned my head on him. I sho

“Are you serious?” I glared at him when he asked me again for 26th times. He have been asking me if I’m serious when I said yes to him! I couldn’t even sleep because he was asking me every minute! “Ask me again, I’m going to talk to Ethan.” He immediately shut his mouth as I said those. I shooked my head. I also don’t know how that happened, it just happened! After I thanked him, I asked him why he loves me. And after he asked me if he could be my boyfriend, I just said yes, and that was what happened! I didn’t expect myself to say something like that. I remember what I conversed with my reader before, I realized we had the same situation with that person. My reader decided to know the reason why the girl he liked rejected him even though he knows that they feel the same way. I realized that my reader was like Paul. He didn’t give up on me, instead of avoiding me in order not to get hurt, he waited for me because he felt that I feel the same way as he do, I was just too scared to

After that night, everything went back to normal, except that we’re not eating lunch with Ethan. Everytime we see each other in university, he will just smile at me and won’t talk to me when Paul is around. “Are you still busy?” Paul asked. I have a free time now. My readers are inboxing me already and asking me about the next chapter of the novel, I can’t ignore them. I’m working on the novel these days for me to publish more than five chapters within this week. “You’ve been in front of your laptop these days,” Paul spoke again, trying to get my attention but my fingers are busy typing. I stopped when he suddenly closed my laptop. I looked at him with a serious look, he gave me an awkward smile before he opened my laptop again. Paul’s POV Why do girls unpredictable? They don’t want to be disturbed but when we’re doing something, they are going to yell at us just to give our attention to them! I frowned when she focused on her laptop again. She’s writing and for the whole week,

Bavina’s POV “What do you think about the event?” Ethan asks that made me look at him. His eyes went down to the screen of my phone, I immediately put it inside my bag. “Are you sure you’re okay?” he asks again. I nodded, “Yeah, I’m just worried about Paul. We haven’t talked since yesterday, I went to his condo but he wasn’t there.” “Did you two argue?” he asks, I shooked my head. Until now, I haven’t heard a news about him. Aeron and Josh texted me earlier saying they still don’t know where Paul is. I don’t want to force them to find him as I know that they have their own personal life. “I think I have to go now. I want to rest before I go back here for the party,” I say, he nodded, “Do you want me to take you home?” I shooked my head as I stood up. “See you later,” I say and turned around. It’s 1pm already and I wanna rest for a bit as Ethan rented the whole club, so I got tired of roaming around to see if every stations are ready already, especially the kitchen station. It
