Prologue
  "YOU REALLY are stupid, Raine!" I heard Dawn shout from behind. I accelerated my walk to the mall parking lot even more. "What the hell did you get into, huh?" The footsteps of her shoes quickened as she approached me. Dawn took a grip on my left hand. If I hadn't clung to her, I would have stumbled. "Don't turn your back on me, Best. I'm talking to you. What's the issue I watched in Andie's live video? Why did you pour coffee on Shawn?" I simply shook my head. I was not in the mood to listen to her sermons. "Boys will always be boys. And I hate them all." I pulled my hand away from her. "What kind of drama is this, Best?" I never dared to answer. I turned my back on her and continued walking to my car. Dawn followed me again. "You're really bad, Raine!" I heard her shout. I rolled my eyes. “I am no longer happy with what you are doing. Don’t you feel guilty for what you did to Shawn inside earlier? You made him go viral on the internet!”"He deserves it. T

Chapter 1
  I usually wake up at around four in the morning, especially on weekdays. I have to. I am now in my third year of college in the Business Management course, and unfortunately, the earliest schedule came to me. Seven in the morning is my first period and that was the subject of our terror professor from Understanding The Self subject. Akeala University is twenty-five minutes drive from our apartment so I really need to wake up early. I’m a woman, but I like heavy metal songs. I used to play one while doing my daily rituals. That makes my brother, Javier, sick. His bedroom is next to mine on the second floor of his rented apartment. He often knocked on my bedroom door and begged me to turn off the sound system, but sometimes he just let me get going. “Raine... Raine…” Gradually my eyes opened. I feel something shaking me. "What?" My voice rang out. "Aren't you going to school?" Javier asked. My eyebrows met. “We have prelims today. Why do you ask?” "Then why ar

  "So is that how it really is, Best? No flash news?" Dawn asked.  Earlier she asked me about what happened this morning, but my focus was not on that incident. I had a test to do, so I remained unspoken. I shook my head and continued driving the scooter. "Why do you want to know? That person made me look ignorant. Also, you heard everything we talked about over the phone. Unless, you ended it early." “That’s right, Best,” Dawn said. She was also busy driving her electric scooter. "Kyle is so dumb. He called me while you were having a drama with that American." "No, he's not a foreigner at all," I corrected. "Let's just say he's a bandwagon and he's trying hard to be one." "Maybe if you have to live there for a few years, I'm sure you'll look and act the same he's doing, once you return here." I grinned. "As if I plan to go abroad! I have a responsibility here in the Philippines, remember?" That was true. After our biggest downfall, I promised Dad I w

  It was the last Friday afternoon of September. I was in the quadrangle, busy video calling Mom. She was outside the apartment. Maybe Hannah let her breath fresh air. Even though Mom is still crippled to this day, I can, somehow, see the smile on her lips. I can’t wait to see her back to normal again. I wanted to dance with her on my birthday. "See you later, Ma." I waved a goodbye kiss to her. "Best, even if you kill me for a few more years, I'll still tease you." A pair of human shadows appeared in front of me. The two are side by side. I took a deep breath and looked at Dawn and Kyle. "What? Are you going to tease me again about that moron? I already forgot what happened that day." I never talked to Dawn for almost three days. To this day I am still upset at what she did. She invited a man, who I hated the most. Too bad, she didn’t ask my permission. She pouted her lips. "Couz," Kyle called. "What?" I asked. "I'm confused with you two," he said in di

  The symposium on motorcycle riding and traffic rules lasted more than an hour. It doesn’t seem like this month is for me. What happened to me was a mess. It all started because of Shawn Dawn tapped me on the shoulder. I turned to her. "Best, I'll go with Kyle." Many students, in various courses, came out of the entrance of the gymnasium, where the symposium was held. I barely heard what she was saying, but I nodded. "Are you sure you're okay?" Kyle asked as he snatched the key of his motorcycle from his pants pocket. "Yes." I smiled slightly. "I'll just call Javier and he'll pick me up." "No need, Best. Shawn has been texting me lately," Dawn said. "He is already outside the gate. He's waiting for you." "He doesn't need to do that." I shook my head. "He's just exhausting himself." "He’s so sweet, Best," Dawn insisted. "I don't find it sweet. It's a waste of time on his part," I said. "I told him to stop bothering me, but he's stubborn. Why is he botherin

  I was supposed to enjoy my sleep. But Shawn was too excited. He woke me up at around five in the morning by knocking on the door many times. I didn’t want to show up for the conversation, but I thought it was a small thing I would do now compared to the help he was showing. He had been nice to my mom. He seemed to have good vibes with Javier. He was kind and gentlemanly, and yes, okay, I somehow forgot about the incident. I thought it was time to treat him fair. I opened the door and Shawn showed up to me already dressed. He had on his casual t-shirt, above the knee shorts, and biblical sandals. He also had just combed his wet hair with his fingers. He looked like a simple man, far different from the man I used to know. "Good morning." "Where did you get that outfit of yours?" I asked. Even though Shawn was simply wearing them, they looked expensive and it was impossible that they were my brother’s clothes."Oh, I always have extra clothes in my car." A wide smil

  "Best, what does this picture mean?" I closed my eyes emphatically as Dawn breaks into the peaceful mood of the library where I was at. I just covered my face with the book I was reading out of embarrassment. I was sure the students inside were watching us. "I thought Shawn isn't your type? You have a hidden agenda with him, eh!" "A little respect for other students, Miss Galera. Maybe you forgot you're in a library?" reprimanded the librarian, who was over thirty years of age. "This isn't the place to gossip. If you want to, go out." With all the shame she got, Dawn still managed to do a peace sign. "I'm sorry, it won't happen again," she said almost in a whisper. "Let's go outside, Best. Let's talk there." She grabbed my hand, then pulled me away. I almost fell off my seat, luckily I got my balance back. "Okay, fine," I whispered. "I'll just return this book." I shook my head. She was acting like a kid again. I wanted to be angry with her, and sometime

  "WHY ARE we here?" I asked Shawn as he parked his car in front of Grandma's Sweets. Our house is just walking distance from here to the cafe and pastry shop. "Why don't we go home yet?""You owe me an explanation." His voice was serious. "We need to talk, Raine.""O-Okay. But just be quick. Javier might get worried why I haven't come home yet." It's past six in the evening. I should be home by these times. He got out of the car and opened the door for me. He smiled. "Don't worry, this won't last long." I gave him a short nod and I went outside his car. The sky was now dark and filled with stars. I then remembered the picture that Dawn showed me earlier. Shawn also opened the shop door for me. "What drink do you want? Coffee? Shake?" he asked as we got inside. Very elegant look of the shop. The interior is clean, well-ventilated, and the pastries displayed on the counter are pleasing to the eye. Javier often buys sweets here because apart from being delicious

  I felt safe the next few days, because of Shawn. It's also him who gave me the strength to forget what had happened that night. The next day he didn't really let the incident happen again, he picked me up in the morning and took me home. I was embarrassed, but he seemed to be enjoying what he was doing. Today was Sunday. I have no other plan to do other than deliver invitations to guests after I go to church. My birthday is on Tuesday, but since we still have work to do, we decided to adjust until Saturday for more fun. Yesterday Shawn and I went to the Four Seasons Resort again for the final cake testing. I chose strawberry cake since red was my favorite color. That was also the motif I chose. We also went to the tailor shop to pick up the gown that I will wear for my debut. We also went to the mall to buy a dress. It was Shawn who paid for it. He said that was his early birthday gift to me and I didn't refuse because he insisted. I woke up when someone burst int

Chapter 9
  IT'S REALLY happening. Our efforts were all worth it. Earlier I was nervous while in the backseat of Shawn's car so that it would be more social to look at the entrance. Well, it was one of Dawn's creative imaginations and I couldn't keep quiet because I was so nervous. "You'll be okay, Raine," Shawn said as he smiled glancing at the rearview mirror. He was carefully driving his car down the pathway to the main venue. "You own this moment and you must enjoy it." I tried to smile, even though my lips were trembling. I’m not nervous because of the guests, but I’m afraid of what they’ll judge. Especially the children of Mom and Dad's friends who are here now. We always threw elegant parties before when we were still rich. Our situation is different now. Also, I don’t know if what I look like right now matters to me. I looked like Cinderella. My hair was in a bun like hers, matte makeup was done by the artist, and when I looked at myself in front of the mirror wearing
