Chapter 21 | I'm Falling~×~×~×~ |AVA SANDERS|“Mom, I'm going! Don’t go out, okay?”I shouted my lungs off before I shut the door and ran toward the gate of our house. My eyes caught Mira's physique who was already in her perfect state. She was wearing an off-shoulder white blouse with her favorite black swirl skirt. She paired it with her white 2-inches wedge heels.I chose to wear a white oversized shirt and my black tattered denim skirt. I paired it with black doll shoes. I also did my hairdo into a half-high bun that emphasized my small cute size face. It also brought out inner confidence in me because I feel pretty.“I thought we were taking the bus?” I asked when we stopped in front of a mini-st

Chapter 23 | Sunset With Him~×~×~×~ |AVA SANDERS|"You're favorite dish?"I lifted my gaze and looked at Maxim on my side. Shi was in front of me as we strode our way, getting food in a buffet. I averted my eyes into the shrimps on my plate when I noticed that I was staring at him longer than usual."Not really. It was my Mom's though," I laughed a bit and craned my neck when the air between us felt awkward or it was just me.Why would I even mention my Mom?Puffing air, I secretly sighed and took a step when Shi already moved forward.“Why did you ask?” I casually asked him and moved aside to wait for his response. Still, I wasn't looking at him. My eyes were busy looking around because I coul

Chapter 25 | A Walk With Him~×~×~×~|AVA SANDERS|I slept late and I woke up early.That was why I couldn't ease the frown on my face when I went out of the room. My head seemed to explode any time now because of it.Shida was still sound asleep. I wore my slippers and closed the door. The sun just peeks from the east when my eyes open as if it has its alarm to be open at a specific time.The sound of the ocean waves reached my hearing when I stepped out of the resort and the view never ceased to amaze me. Every time I would see its natural movement and the rhythm of the waves with the wind always calmed the chaos inside me.It was as if, through it, I would never feel that I was born unlucky. It was the ocean with its waves that s

Chapter 27 | Probability~×~×~×~|AVA SANDERS|I frowned when I yawned for the third time after eating breakfast in the dining hall downstairs.I'm sleepy yet I shouldn't be.“Shida. Are you done?” I shouted while I tried to get up from the bed because it was trying to make me fall asleep, hard.“Wait a minute!” she shouted back.I breathed deeply and closed my eyes. I frustratingly messed up my hair and opened it. I stared at the ceiling while contemplating what to do.Whether to sleep or get ready.“Don't fall asleep, Ava. You've got to go out with us!”I sighed and grunted in frustration.“But I'm sleepy a

Chapter 29 | A Love Triangle~×~×~×~|AVA SANDERS|“My mother is sick,”We all stopped eating when Rose suddenly break the silence since we started rummaging for foods for our starving stomachs. I slowly continued chewing the food inside my mouth and put down the utensils I was using as I looked at Mira who was also glancing back at me from Shida.I hardly gulped down the food as I processed Rose’s words.“Are you comfortable?” Shida was the one who managed to break the discomfort in the air as we looked at Rose who has a small smile plastered on her lips.My heart tugged for something I couldn't name when it dawned on me how strong she was. Albeit, we just knew each other.Maybe it
