Revenge of an Heiress (Zima Triplets Trilogy #1) (English) のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 51 - チャプター 60

ChantriaI'm glad that Iwatani and I are becoming real friends, not just childhood friends that we pretend to be. Because of my confession, we were able to rest and think about everything.Slowly, we're getting to know each other better. We're becoming proper friends.But what I don't like right now is the awkwardness between Gab and me whenever we're left alone together. It doesn't happen often, but I can't help but feel sad.That's when I realized how that kind of feeling can get in between two friends. When one falls for the other, it's just one of the two. Either they both will have feelings for each other, or they'll stop being friends because the other one doesn't feel the same way.It's just sad that it had to happen to me. I'm really glad that I'm friends with Gab. I'm happy because I have a friend who understands me to some extent. I'm happy being friends with Lorreine, Louella, and Iwatani, but we're nothing alike. We all have different problems and flaws to deal with.I sig

Chantria"What did dad tell you?" Gab asked as we walked towards their gate.I don't even know why we have to walk when they have a car, but I didn't complain. I don't want to be demanding. Just because he likes me doesn't mean I should take advantage of that. I'm not like that."Nothing to worry about," I replied.He paused before asking again. "He didn't threaten you, right?""No. Why would he?""I mean, he didn't tell you to leave me alone, right? He didn't say anything harsh or anything?"I chuckled before facing him. "No, he didn't. Like I said, you don't have to worry. And I don't think your dad's that type of person. I think he's great. He just doesn't always know how to show his true self to other people."He closed his mouth. "I know that. I'm just worried you'll ignore me in school after this."I laughed again. "Even if he asks me to leave you, I won't do that. I won't leave you alone." I turned around and walked towards the gate.After saying that out loud, I realized how e

ChantriaEverything went back to normal. Iwatani was right, I am really comfortable around him. It's like nothing ever happened. Although, my heart still races sometimes when I'm with him. But I still think I like him, since I really do. But love? I don't know. I've never been in love before, so I don't know the difference between liking someone and loving someone.Instead of worrying about it now, I decided to just let it be. In time, I know I'll find the answer. I'm not in a rush to know. I'll find out when I'm ready and with the person I'll love."Are you ready?" Gab asked with his palm extended in front of me."Not really," I replied.He chuckled softly as I took his hand. "Just follow my lead."We started to dance as soon as we heard the music. As our instructor, who was also our classmate, told us, we danced while looking into each other's eyes.For our upcoming graduation party, each class in our batch will have a presentation. Our section is preparing a semi-formal dance. I sh

ChantriaI yawned while locking the door. Lorreine, Louella, and I slept late last night because we were on a video call for hours. Even though we went home early, they called me out of the blue, I don't know why.That's when I told them about Gab and Iwatani. I told them about how I feel and said that I would move on from Iwatani. Lorreine had the same reaction as Louella. She also didn't understand why I had to move on when there's still a chance, especially since we always hang out together.But as I told Louella, giving up is just the right thing to do. Besides, I don't think it's a bad idea. It's like it doesn't matter to me to give up my feelings for Iwatani. Maybe because I found out who he likes.It really gets confusing here. Because the truth is, I can't help but notice Gab too. At first, it didn't matter to me when I found out he likes me too. Not entirely, but it's like I'm okay with him liking me but I can't return his feelings.Maybe because I didn't know him well back t

ChantriaI excused myself to go to the CR to get Iwatani's shirt. It's black and a bit big for me. I just tucked it in so I wouldn't look too big.When I went out of the cubicle, I saw Lorreine and Louella with some of our classmates. Some of them were retouching their makeup even though they were already going home. I just stayed there and washed my face."Are you okay?" Louella asked. "There was a big stain on your clothes earlier. Do you think it will come off?"I shrugged. "Maybe. It was just iced tea."I put my dirty clothes in a plastic bag. I only had a small bag with me so I couldn't put it inside. We were going home anyway so I just carried it."Do you have a relationship with Iwatani?" Rizelle asked. "Don't be offended or anything, okay? We're just curious."I looked at my classmates who were also waiting for my answer. Even Makino seemed to be waiting for my response.I shook my head at them. "We don't have a relationship. If you're referring to being friends, then yes, we'
