บททั้งหมดของ Falling For My Bully: บทที่ 1 - บทที่ 10

Nicholas’s POV “Nicky! Nicky...” I could hear his voice faintly. The voice was distant. Echoing. Like it was slipping through water. “Dad! Dad! Where are you? I can’t hear you” There was no reply “Daddy! Please answer me” I cried out “Dad!!!” “Nicholas! Nicholas!” My name, soft but firm. A woman’s voice pulled me out. I blinked. My eyes stung, heavy like they’d been shut for years. “Nicholas,” she said again. I turned my head slowly and saw her—my nanny. Her eyes were worried, hands gently touching my arm like I might break. “Honey! Are you alright? Should I get your mother for you?” Nanny Tee asked, worry lining her voice. “No! Nanny, I’m fine. I promise.” She searched my face for a second longer, then gave a small nod and left to get the tap running. I sank back into the pillow, breathing slowly. It was nothing. Just a dream, Nicholas. But when would they stop? I’m tired. So damn tired. Moments later, her voice called from down the hall. “Your tub is ready, Master

I got home late in the day, every muscle in my body screaming with aches and sores. The moment my bed embraced me, I felt a wave of blissful relief wash over me, hoping to just drift off into oblivion. But then, a soft rap echoed on my door."Come in," I mumbled, my voice a little muffled by the pillow.Nanny Tee's gentle face peered around the doorframe. "Master Nicholas, Dinner is ready and your mother insisted you eat in the dinner with them today," she announced, her tone as warm and comforting as always.Great, mom. Just great. My inner monologue seethed. Of all the days, it's the day my face is an angry, swollen mess that you decide on a mandatory family dinner. Perfect timing, as always. The thought alone made my stomach churn with a mix of dread and frustration.I instinctively reached for my trusty hoodie, pulling it on and yanking the hood up, desperate to conceal the tell-tale puffiness that marred my face. It was my shield, my pathetic attempt at normalcy. "I'm ready, nann

It took forever for morning to come.I barely had any sleep last night, battling from the dull, throbbing pain that still resonated from yesterday’s beating, the chaotic aftermath of dinner, and the terrifying prospect of Zack’s inevitable vengeance – how could I possibly sleep? So much for feeling whole again.Mom’s worried sick now. Zack had her convinced I was bullied—and he’s not wrong, but I don’t want her knowing that. Now she’s determined to schedule a meeting with the school board. Ahh! The thought alone sent a fresh wave of dread through me. Great. Just what I need.Zack, on the other hand, is definitely up to something. I don’t know what it is yet, but I can tell—Andrew’s going to regret ever laying a hand on me.Zack and I may not be close, we might constantly butt heads and disagree on almost everything, but when it came to me getting hurt, Boy, he turns into a whole different person.I still remember after the accident... Zack was furious with Mom. He truly believed s

…It was Andrew.Standing behind the counter in a faded black apron, hair slightly disheveled, face pale with a bruised cheek and a swollen red eye from the fight earlier today. He looked nothing like the untouchable, arrogant Andrew West from school—the one who could silence a hallway with a single glance.This Andrew looked… desperate. Vulnerable.Wasn’t he supposed to be richer than I am? What was a spoiled, entitled rich kid doing working at a diner—looking like he was begging to get paid?I froze, mouth slightly open, eyes wide. I ducked quickly, hiding so he wouldn’t see me. He was too focused on the man towering over him—probably the owner of the diner. Mr. Diggle looked older, rough around the edges, and very much in control of the conversation.Andrew looked like a child being scolded.“I told you,” Diggle snapped. “You’ll get the money when I say so. Not before. You mess up again, and that’s it.”Andrew clenched his fists. “But I’ve done everything. Please…”Please.That didn

Nicholas's POV My dad always told me a story from ancient China. He said there was once a skilled archer named Hou Yi and his beautiful wife, Chang’e. Their love was pure unshakable.One day, ten suns rose in the sky, scorching the earth and threatening all life. Hou Yi, a great hero, took his bow and shot down nine of the suns, leaving just one. As a reward, the Heavenly Queen Mother gave him an elixir of immortality. However, Hou Yi didn’t want to live forever without his beloved wife, so he hid the potion at home.But fate was cruel. A greedy apprentice tried to steal the elixir while Hou Yi was away. To protect it, Chang’e drank it herself, even though it meant she could no longer stay on Earth. She floated up into the sky and landed on the moon, where she became the Moon Goddess, separated from Hou Yi forever.Every night, Hou Yi would look up at the moon, longing for the woman he loved. On the full moon, he would leave out her favorite cakes and fruits as an offering. People say
