Lahat ng Kabanata ng Hail the Mafia Queen: Kabanata 11 - Kabanata 18

As agreed, Karlo and I went to the university where I can process my enrollment to pursue an MBA. Most of the time, he was the one who took care of it, while I took pictures around the campus, where some places are just astonishing to photograph so that I could upload them to my Instagram account.“Who is that hottie? Is he new here?”I lifted my head in curiosity when I heard a high-pitched, womanly voice nearby. There was a group of ladies languidly walking through the pavement, not far away from me. Their eyes were fixated on the registrar's office where Karlo was talking to a professor through the small window. He was nodding while leaning over the counter so he could hear the blushing professor and stifling a malicious smile. I frowned even more when the group stopped in their tracks so they could check out Karlo.Yeah, right, I almost forgot the part that I am not the only one noticing that he is handsome and hot. Most women I know from my sight would get head over heels for him

Just like what Karlo said, he went to the university with me and dropped me off on campus. We didn’t say anything as I was just scrolling through my TikTok feed. Although I could feel his stares darting on my face from the driver’s seat and would just sigh at the very end.I liked my uniform because it was a mini blue striped skirt, white fitted long sleeves, with a pink ribbon tie on the top button. I was also wearing black two-inch heels, so it made me taller than I will ever be. I saw Karlo protesting about it through his gaze when I was taking mirror selfies in the living room, but he stopped himself from saying anything. I lost my hair and just clipped the sides of it, feeling like an Anime female character.“I’ll pick you up when you are done with your classes, okay?” he reminded me for the nth time when we stopped in the parking lot of the university. “Call me when you need anything.”“Karlo, I won’t call you because there’s nothing to worry about. Am I some sixteen years old t

Together, we went to the parking lot. When he let me inside the car, I immediately messaged my friends that I am now going to the party. They said the circles were already complete and I am the only one who is still not there. It’s not like their other friends were expecting me, but they wanted to introduce me to them, so it is merely courtesy for me to show up prepared early.“What time do you want to go home so I can fetch you?” Karlo asked in the middle of his driving.My eyes are still fixated on my Whatsapp, messaging my friends. “I’ll just call and text you,” I said.“Tsk,” I heard him hiss. “You’re a cheater, you know that? Kissing is not a combat skill.”Karlo failed to open up the topic about what happened a while ago in the training. I tried to act like it was nothing by clearing my throat and scoffing, but in truth, I was biting my lip and feeling my cheeks to be flushed in red by now while typing on my phone.“You only said that if I take you down, I win. You didn’t say wh

“Wow,” I muttered in awe.The cabin is vintage brown. From what I could see, it is three-storey with glass doors and windows. I couldn’t see the interiors because there were white curtains from the inside. A terrace was on the second floor, filled with a marble table, two chairs, and flowery plants in all corners. The whole area was vast, covered with bermuda grass, a fountain in front of the cabin’s entrance, and a variety of plans that were perfectly arranged. There was even a gazebo not far from the cabin. Even though I haven’t seen everything in this cabin, I could already guess that it is very big enough to house two to three families. I was circling around the bermuda grass. My mouth dropped and my eyes wandered in every place of the area. I touched the water of the fountain with fishes swimming on it, and looked at the sun with its rays penetrating through the branches of the tall trees. It was so peaceful and refreshing. The wind played with my hair strands, so I closed my ey
