Semua Bab The Victim : Bab 31 - Bab 40

Levine***I shut my locker with a loud enough thud and from the left, I spot a blurry image of someone. "Anything I can help you with?" I ask turning around and locked eyes with a pair of amber orbs. "Nothing I j-""Cool if it's nothing- then I can't help you." I give him an evident fake smile. "Damn you and Serine are so similar," he muses and I purse my lips. "You only realize that now?""Trust me I've known this,""Your point?" I stare at him blankly- okay guys, I know, I didn't necessarily have to constantly snap at him but guys who irritate you- make you do these kinds of things and still question you, but they're the problem. "How about coffee?" I squint my eyes, thinking."You never fail to make me feel less interested,""Lunch? My treat," I pout, "Sure, why not, " I shrug. Look, to whoever is against guys paying the bills or splitting the damn bill, news flash it's not about a girl not being able to provide for herself- no. It's not that she needs a guy to pay for everyt

Serine ***Arriving at the hospital, I see his body once again. His eyes closed, he wasn't moving an inch whatsoever. The machine beeping at every second, reminding us that he was still there. Right?Right.I softly drag the stool near, to the right side of his bed and sit down on it. Grabbing his hand that had the pulse oximeter on his index finger. "Hey dad," I greet as happily as I could."You know, I'm beginning my exams next week and uhm- I promise you I'll study really hard so I can graduate. I want you to be there- to see me graduate. Nothing will be better than you smiling and hugging me saying you're proud of me. I know mom is smiling wherever she is, I think I'm going to visit her today." As I stare my dad teary eyed.What the hell, I'm such a crybaby. I spot a chain around his neck. It was his locket. The one he'd never take off and treasured forever. I stood up slowly and I was lucky enough he wasn't sleeping too low. He was more- or- less upright. Once the chain is

Sarah***We arrive at my house which is literally the next street to Rine's house which only took less than a minute to get there. I receive a text from Levine telling me she arrived safe because she knew how paranoid I could be.I text her back and shut my phone once the text is delivered. "Welcome to my crib," is all that comes out of my stupid mouth. Ugh see this is why I don't say a lot of thing to Darek. I'll end up embarrassing myself and that's the last thing I wanted. I just craved the whole ground swallowed me and he'd forget I ever said that. "I like it, it's pretty cool." My mom was a doctor and my dad basically owned his own company of jets.So you can imagine how large it was, definitely not as big as Levine's. Sheesh. Her mom used to be a plastic surgeon but now she's helping the needy. Opening her own foundation- that woman was a role model. I don't care. It was crazy because Levine was my neighbor. Right next door from me and we technically lived in the same area."I

Angelo***I arrive at Levine's house and I spot other familiar faces once I enter. But the one I don't see is Serine. It was noon and the shine was already shining brightly.Speaking of the person I hadn't gotten to speak to, because of her boyfriend, Alex. It was no secret that they were dating. Although they tried to hide it at first, it was clear even way before, that was something there. So it didn't really surprise me but it did surprise me how I felt about it when I saw her resting her head on his shoulder. Which I wish was mine, I envied that. I envied him. He had such an amazing person and he knew it.I certainly do feel like it'd be unfair if I didn't do anything to get her- to have her. Even if everyone says you should fight for your love- I didn't think I was worth it for her. She likes somebody else, she's with somebody else, so it was best I kept my mouth shut. It was maybe best to keep it all in.I don't even think she noticed that I heard her conversation concerning me

Serine***"Fucking hell, were you drinking?" I hiss already knowing the answer. The alcohol in his breathe already fanning my face. "No," I roll my eyes at his answer. "I'm just here wanting to speak the truth," Alex was here for whatever reason. The moment he opened the door, I found myself pulling him to the kitchen, away from everybody else because I didn't want him to cause a scene.That was the last thing I needed or wanted."What truth are you even talking about?""That you like him, you like him. That's why it took you so long. That's why it took you long for you to confess to me,"Oh hell no we're not doing this again. "But you know what?""No, no. I really don't know,""I don't care. That doesn't matter like you said. I'm sorry I said that yesterday. And I'm sorry it took me so long so admit this, it was my insecurity speaking. I just don't want to lose you. I don't want to," I stupidly engulf him in a hug. "You're so silly. I've already told you, you won't lose me. Just sto
