Semua Bab I WANT YOU BACK (English): Bab 1 - Bab 10

We all have that dream of finding the guy who would perfectly love us despite our imperfections. We even adore those hunks we saw in the movies we watched and wished that one of them would be our partners for life. But everything was just an illusion.Five years ago, I had this paranoid, devastating, funny, sweet, and cheesy relationship with my first love. I can still remember our first encounter.FLASHBACK.3:00 PM during Filipino class. I was in my third year at that time. The class went boring and I suddenly felt the urge to go outside and find someone to bully. Yes! You got it right; I'm not the usual pabebe teenager during my high school days. I loved punching guys and I do love bullying the weaklings. My classmates have their groups every break time to talk to, but I prefer to stay alone at the Mango Tree reading books.Our class was on the third floor. It's not that I loved skipping class, but I just felt bored and wanted to walk around campus. I don't want to sleep in Mrs. De

"Can't you see what time is it?? Stupid!""Hi pumpkin!" and my eyes widened. I hurriedly turned off my phone.I feel so annoyed. "What the heck, where did he get my number?"Because of that stupid mistake, my calvary has already begun. I couldn't even sleep again thinking about where Patrick got my number from. Even my classmates don't have my digits. This is really bad.If I can only turn back time.End of flashback.I just couldn't stop my tears from falling, remembering how pathetic our start was."Alex! Alex! Hey!" The girl steps away from me were waving her hands, and she always has this happy face whenever she sees me.That is Miyah "Michaela Beatrice Lorejo" my bestfriend. I'm not anti-social anymore. I also got friends, and most of all I don't look like a gangster anymore. Thanks to Miyah. Breathlessly, Miyah approached me, "Hey! I've been calling you several times!" She was still chasing her breath."Are you crazy? We are inside the Mall and not in the supermarket" I said, an

I wake up in a room painted with white color.Where am I? What am I doing here?I was about to stand when I saw my hand with dextrose and the guy sleeping next to me was Alex.Alex?I check my watch and it's already 3 in the morning. I've been sleeping for too long. I can see, it was Alex who rescued me from that freaking library.Why, Alex?He moved a little and opened his eyes. He is intently looking at me. I got so nervous that I couldn't understand what to do. He looked so scary. I can see how fierce his gaze is, just like the first time we met. There is always hatred in his eyes.I can't find any words to thank him. I've been swallowing my saliva several times while observing every inch of his movement. Carefully, I don't want him to notice.He suddenly stood up. "You're awake? Stupid!" he said softly.I don't know how to respond to those words. All I know is I'm having a heart attack right now from thinking too much about what happened in the library. I was really afraid. It see

Alex dragged me to the Cafeteria. Yeah! He is holding my hand and everyone is staring at us."Hey!" He touched me. "Are you alright?" he asked me. He had the guts to ask me if I was okay. Honestly, I don't feel like talking to him."Pumpkin?" he asked softly.I raised an eyebrow again and pointed my finger at him."One more pumpkin and I'll really punch you big time!" I withdrew the hand he had been holding. "What's the matter with you? Aren't you done teasing me!" I said angrily."Chill!" he said jokingly. He raised both his hands facing me with a smile."Do you think I can still stay calm in my situation now?" I raised an eyebrow at him again. "Been to detention because of you, for a stupid reason!" I looked at him from head to toe. "For what? Kissing you?" I pushed him. "Correction Mr. Alonzo, I didn't even think of touching your face!" I keep saying. I didn't want to cause a scene, so I talked to him in a whisper. "First, I don't fucking know you! Second, I don't have plans on lik

I am sitting on the sofa facing him."So, how are we going to go home?" I asked him with a raised eyebrow."I said, we can't!" He raised his eyebrow at me as well."We are in the middle of nowhere, Alex!" I stood up with my hands on my hips. "Far from the city! We don't even have money!" I waved my hands in the air. "So, how am I going to explain this to anyone? Huh?" I slowly narrowed my face at him. "I'm only 16, Alex! What if Dad finds out that I'm not home?" I sat down heavily, scratching my head.Stupid!"I don't know." That was his only response amidst all my words. He was still leaning against the wall. He seemed relaxed, but I felt so nervous.I can't even stand this guy for a day, how much more for a week!"What about our classes? We'll be absent for a week?" I asked. I was
