Chapter Eleven
She would admit, watching Raphael act in front of the camera felt like watching someone else, someone who had a lot of experiences in the industry. He didn’t even seem like the guy that she knew about before, especially when way back in college, he kept on mentioning several times that acting wasn’t really his forte. Even when she didn’t like feeling it, she felt utterly curious towards the guy. She couldn’t help but wonder about what he did during those years when they hadn’t seen each other. When they broke up, she swore that she would never stalk him ever. Even during those times when she was in the middle of moving on, and was still struggling believing the things that just happened to end their long-term relationship, she didn’t stalk him nor did she ask anyone about his whereabouts. That time, she was able to convince herself that stalking

Chapter Twelve
“How was  your day?” Ngel asked the moment she stepped in the car. When she was already inside, she was finally able to breathe properly because her heart had really been beating so hard since the moment she was already in front of the camera. It was no longer a question that the experience wasn’t entirely her first time as she had played minor roles before, but playing a supporting role in the series was way different from what she played before. Not to mention how Raphael seemed to be mocking her the whole time, slapping to her face that he wasn’t just her co-actor, but one of the scriptwriters as well. A day on the set without the guy would really be a blessing for her, and she could no longer wait for that to happen. The guy noticed her long pout as she buckled up in the shotgun seat so when she looked at him, there was already a look of concern in

Chapter Thirteen
Even when they were still in high school, Raphael was already fond of writing stories. Many people would even say that he didn’t look like someone who wrote, but that was the truth. Almost everything he knew how to do. He was smart, talented, and was even sporty, not to mention that he was rich as well. She could never blame those people who were head over heels for the guy. He wasn’t just someone with a handsome face. She even thought before that someone like her didn’t deserve someone like him, but after what happened, after what he did to her, she realized that all those thoughts should no longer be entertained.She didn’t care if he had every good aspect there was to have. She didn’t care that he was utterly rich, and that ending up together with him would mean that she no longer needed to work so hard just to earn money. She didn’t care any of th

Chapter Fourteen
The rain started pouring.     Of course. The rain would really pour, especially when she needed it not to fall. That was how things worked sometimes, and although things like that would happen to her from time to time, it didn't mean that she still didn't think that it was a bummer whenever it happened. It was still a bummer, especially when she didn't bring any umbrella with her. She mentally took note to bring one next time because it would surely happen again, and for someone like her who didn't have a car yet, umbrellas were a must. She just didn't necessarily like bringing one as she would often forget about it, but now that the tragedy had already happened, she took note to be prepared next time.     "Hey, Tim, wanna hitch a ride? We're on our way back to Katipunan," one of the staff members asked after noticing that she was just standing there, hugging herself because of the cold, waiting for the rain to stop

Chapter Fifteen
Tim should really move out.     Her plan was that she would buy a car first once she received her income for the series. It would be a few weeks till the amount would be on her account. But after what happened, after Raphael was able to confirm that she was really still living at the apartment that he knew about, there was a huge part of her that was telling herself that she should prioritize moving first.     She pouted as she turned off the stove. Why was she affected? It wasn't like the guy would visit her. She knew that he no longer cared about her, and the feelings were the same as well. She no longer cared about him. Well, that was what she was telling herself.     Timothee knew that he only drove her back home because it was needed, not because he liked to do so. It was just a call of conscience because even if she was in his position, she'd also do the same thing even when t

Chapter Sixteen
Timothee hated commuting because of the unnecessary attention that she'd get every single time she was in a public transportation. Although she was used to getting other people's attention as she was growing up, she hated that kind of attention that she got in public transportation, especially the kind that men give. It gave her creeps. It reminded her of that relative that she was trying to forget, the past that she had already buried.     Of course, she was left with no choice. The only thing that she could do was to convince herself that she needed to sacrifice a little bit more as she'd be able to afford a car for herself sooner. Although it had been postponed as she was planning on moving to a condominium unit first, she was adamant to make it happen. She'd have her car, her private space, and she'd no longer suffer under the meaningful stares of those people.     That was one thing with being a woman and being

Chapter Seventeen
The guy didn't annoy her all day. In fact, he didn't even talk to her even once. Maybe he did, but those were the ones that weren't annoying. He was just acting as one of the scriptwriters, nothing more, nothing less. Timothee knew that that was a good thing, especially after what happened that morning. Whenever she recalled the things that happened, and the things that he said to her, she would feel her blood rushing towards her face. Not to mention how shameful it was that he really had to feed her, well, he insisted on feeding her. It wasn't like she was the one who told her to pay for her breakfast. However, even when she hated the guy with every fiber of her being, she was thankful that he was there at the right place and at the right time. It was like the universe was conspiring for him to be there when she needed someone to be there. She hated it. She hoped that it was not the case, and that it was just purely coincidence and not because of the universe "

However, the girl just let out a smile, and chose not to say anything. Although the girl didn't really say it, she already knew what she was thinking about. It made her nervous. She was certain that it probably had to with Raphael and her as the guy was really hinting a lot of stuff, she hated it.
