Lahat ng Kabanata ng My Rival My lover: Kabanata 61 - Kabanata 70

Alex pov We came out of a clearing. The walk was a long and excruciating experience, but we scales through. I was holding Luke's hands throughout. But I was not prepared for what was waiting for me as the clearing became visible to me. Gathered around the clearing where all the elites were in my school. Josh and his friend, plus other students. I spotted andrian also who gave me a wink. “He followed an easier track, cutting the whole journey short” Luke explained, as if aware that the question was burning through my head. That made a lot of sense. I thought. “But why didn't we follow the same shortcut?” “Because it's a must that you will follow the long road. It's a part of the formality.” I scanned my surroundings, as Luke was still talking, but something didn't look right. everybody was not sitting on the level of platforms. Some were higher than the others. And there were even the highest raised seats, but no one was sitting on it. “About the seats, that's a long cultur

Alex pov I’ve always known the Elites have their separate world, but being thrust into it felt surreal. They had their separate classes. The classrooms were decorated beautifully, rivaling most of the students' parlours at their various homes. The air condition, that's seen in only the staff offices where mounted all round the Elites quarters, plus everybody have their own personal system and seats that are permanently for you. My registration took almost three hours, and that's with first-class treatment and the V.C. personal overseeing the registration. From today, hence Fort, I will be attending my lectures in the Elites quarters. Linda and i wouldn't have much time anymore, unless only at the eatery. Or when we have a combined class, in that case, it was just two or three classes. The new teacher, Mrs Hopkins, was in class, but the other students were busy, occupied with whatever they saw fit. Somewhere scrolling through the device while others were chatting in small groups.

Andrians pov Rage was bubbling inside me. I don't know why, but Alex suddenly asking about the melody had ignited a sharp anger inside me. I trudged down the hallway like a soldier on death call. Everybody knows better than to clear from my way without being told. I don't know why I was feeling angry, is it because Alex had interrupted my music with him, eavesdropping at the door. I know it was innocently done, but I can't help but feel offended that my privacy was intruded. Maybe that was one of the many reasons or that I had shown too much of my emotions just in one day. It was going contrary to what I believe in. And that should be why I am angry. “Andrian sweety” I heard a voice, and before I could turn, a hand snaked itself from behind me. June!. I felt disgust, untold disgust that it took all my control not to slam her stupid face across the walls of the hallway. June was the last person I wanted to meet. “hey” I muttered, forcing a smile. “I haven't seen y

ALEX POV The ground shook beneath us, and the sky lit up with a fiery glow as the sound of shattering glass and panicked screams filled the air. I pushed Andrian away, my heart racing for an entirely different reason now. “What the hell was that?” He didn’t answer, his eyes fixed in the direction of the explosion. For the first time, I saw genuine fear on his face, and it sent a chill down my spine. “Andrian?” I prompted, my voice trembling. He turned to me, his expression unreadable. “We need to leave. Now.” Noo, I need to know what happened” I insisted. I shoved Andrian away from me, my breath hitching as I turned toward the source of the chaos. My heart sank like a stone as I saw it, the source of the explosion. The eatery I’d worked at for years was engulfed in flames. “No,” I whispered, the word barely audible over the crackling fire. My feet moved before my brain could catch up, carrying me toward the burning building. “Alex, stop!” Andrian’s voice rang out behind me,

Alex povI felt electricity travel from where he grabbed me up the way to my spine.Before I could react, I felt myself being dragged by him into an empty classroom.“What the fuck andrian,” I screamed at him. As he locked the door with a click. “You left for two weeks,” was the only word he said.“Yes cause I didn't want to set my eyes on you” I glared at him. I couldn’t even believe I was talking to him. Not after everything.“I am leaving” I announced, making to leave, but andrian blocked my way, grabbing my hand.I felt the same tingle from earlier on immediately creep in. I withdrew my hand as fast as I could.“What do you want from me, andrian!,” I asked, my anger rising at the moment. “You were hiding from me, isn't it” andrian ignored my outburst, smirking at me. “That's why you never picked up my calls.”Calls?, I was momentarily taken aback at what he said. But who cares? This is Andrian we are talking about. A manipulator and a liar. Luke's words floated in my mind. I w
