Gabriella didn’t know what to say to the handsome man standing in front of her. It was still early morning, yet he already looked like he was about to go out. His skin was flawless, his appearance neat and calm, as if he had just stepped out of a magazine. “S-Sorry… I didn’t see you there,” Gabriella said awkwardly. “I hope you don’t mind me drinking your water.” Xander chuckled softly. “I don’t mind.” With nothing else to say, Gabriella nodded. What she really wanted was to go back to Andy’s room, fix herself, and then head home. But leaving so suddenly would feel rude. As if he could read her thoughts, Xander asked, “How is Andy?” Gabriella smiled faintly. “She’s okay… I think she’ll be better as the days go by.” Xander kept looking at her quietly, and she suddenly felt self-conscious. She lifted her hand and fixed her messy hair, then remembered what had happened during the truth-or-dare game. “Um… about that day,” she said nervously. “When I didn’t kiss you… I had my

“Don’t mistake this help as a sign that we’re friends,” Caleb said coldly.Gabriella froze, shock washing over her face at the sudden change in his tone.“What do you mean?” she asked, stunned.Just moments ago, he had been calm and gentle. Now, his voice was distant and sharp, as if she were a stranger who had crossed a line.Still, Gabriella wasn’t looking for friendship either. After a second, she forced herself to calm down.Maybe he only said that to avoid trouble. Or maybe he didn’t want rumors spreading between them.Either way, she could accept it.“Okay, fine. No friendship. I get it,” she said quietly. “Thank you for helping me. I’ll leave you alone now.”She turned to go.Behind her, Caleb watched her leave, his eyes sharp, the coldness in them still lingering as he slowly shook his head.Gabriella stepped back into the hallway, her heart still pounding. She was afraid those boys might still be around, but she had no choice. She had dropped her pamphlets when she ran, and s

Norman was taken aback by Gabriella’s sudden words.Kiss me.For a second, he simply stared at her. Then, unexpectedly, he laughed—soft at first, then openly amused.Gabriella flinched.The sound made her doubt herself. Her words had been reckless, yes, but she hadn’t meant them as a joke. Seeing him laugh made her chest tighten.“What are you laughing at?” she asked sharply.“At you, of course,” Norman said, still smiling. “Are you serious right now? You want me to kiss you?”“That’s not funny,” Gabriella said quickly. “I am serious.”She straightened, forcing herself to sound confident.“If you kiss me and we tell them we love each other, it will break their marriage. They won’t allow step-siblings who are in love to stay under the same roof.”She said it honestly—like a plan she had rehearsed over and over in her head.Norman stopped smiling.“That’s your plan?” he asked slowly.Gabriella swallowed but didn’t look away.“Do you have a better one?” she asked. “Or are you just going

Jasper was at his pool club, leaning over the table as he guided one of his students through a careful shot. His voice was calm, patient—until the door opened.Andy walked in.Elegant as ever.Jasper paused mid-instruction. He straightened, gave his student a brief nod, and walked toward her with an amused smile.“Long time no see, Andy,” he said. “And I don’t remember seeing you here before.”Andy tilted her head slightly, her eyes scanning the room before finally landing on him.“Well,” she said lightly, “I just thought I’d come by and say hi. We are friends after all.”She walked to the pool table, picked up a ball, examined it for a second, then tossed it back onto the felt.Jasper watched her quietly.“That’s new,” he said. “So—did you come here to hang out with me, or are you finally interested in learning pool?”Andy hesitated.She wasn’t there for pool.She was there for Norman.Or maybe just the hope of accidentally running into him.When Norman had rejected her, she had crie

A paper firework burst inside the photography club room. Boom! Cheers erupted immediately, hands clapping, laughter filling the space. Standing in front of the club were the newly registered members—five of them. Five new faces. Five new beginnings. “This is worth celebrating,” Blake said enthusiastically, clapping nonstop. “Honestly, I never imagined we’d get this many new members.” “We should thank Ella for this,” Xander added, turning toward Gabriella. “Am I right?” Gabriella stood slightly behind, watching the new members with a soft smile. The pamphlets she had designed—simple, artistic, personal—had worked. Better than she expected. Especially since one particular person, Caleb, had joined. She still couldn’t figure him out. “Yeah,” Bernard chimed in cheerfully, winking at her. “Gabriella really put in the effort.” “I think she finally heard my cries for help,” Blake laughed. “Thank you, Gabriella.” She shifted shyly under the attention. “I just did what I could for t
