Chapter 11
After Sage and I had dinner, I went upstairs. Earlier, his bandmates came home and they didn't have dinner here so I didn't have to lock myself in the room to eat there.I took a nightgown out of the cabinet and went into the bathroom. I was immersed in the bath tub while thinking about what Luke had said. Will he also do something in Manila? So what? And why do we have to be together when I can do it myself?Why is he able to act normally and seem like nothing? Has he forgotten what he did to me? Then I don't. Because every time I close my eyes I see his puffy eyes staring at me. I could hear his low and baritone voice meeting my hearing. I could feel his warm and soft lips on my ear. Fuck, that doesn't seem to get out of my mind!Then he's just nothing? Looks like he didn't beat me up ?! I gasped and irritably buried my shoulders in the water. I don't want to see him. Just thinking that I can go with him on the trip makes me anxious. I’ve been restless lately because of overthinking

I was wide awake last night, I think I fell asleep at two o'clock and woke up at four o'clock because of our early trip. So when we were on the plane, I couldn't help but fall asleep. I just woke up when I heard PA so I frowned and opened my eyes.I saw the back of the flight passenger seat in front of my seat. I closed my eyes again because of the weight of my eyes. I adjusted the incline of my right cheek and became comfortable there again. The window is on my left and my right is— what the fuck!I quickly opened my eyes and got up from the incline. My vision rotated for a moment because of the speed with which I was moving. I turned to Luke who was looking at me in astonishment. All this time I fell asleep on his shoulder ?! Putangina ?!"Why are you so shocked there?" He seemed to have no question while holding a magazine.My annoyance did not subside and it only increased the thought of me leaning on him! Embarrassing and annoying! I guess I was so awake I didn't realize I did th

I woke up early because my body was used to that time during school hours. At six o'clock my eyes were awake but I did not get up. I was just stunned at the window covered by a thick and red curtain. Because of that it seemed dark inside my room even though the sun was shining outside.I don’t know if it will be midnight, or really midnight that I slept last night because I was restless. After Luke's answer to me, I stopped talking and turned my back on him.I approached the sleeping mother Ida and tried to get her to sleep so that she would be comfortable here on the sofa. He told me that he would sleep here so that Luke could use the room. That was another one of our long arguments but in the end I did nothing either.Luke soon went inside. When he saw that I was having a hard time getting along with my mother, he approached me."Why is she sleeping here?" He asked as he approached.I deliberately stepped aside to avoid because I was still confused by how I felt before and until now

Chapter 14
It's one o'clock in the morning. I was wearing a black hoodie and black pants. Both of my hands were slid into its pockets and both were tightly clasped. The hood covered my head as I stood inside an old warehouse.Here I am at the place Benj said where the customer will meet me. I haven't done this in a long time, I told Benj before that I don't want to because I'm scared.We quarreled and I thought we had agreed to stop together, but he asked me earlier that I would deliver it here because he was already hot on the authorities. It was there that I realized he hadn’t even stopped.It was frustrating to know that, but my love for him still prevailed. Eventually I just tried to understand his reason.I hope this is the last time we do this, we talked before I left that it would never happen again and I would just do it to help her study. He needs to pay as much as tuition for the next sem. We were both in senior high school and just minors.I really didn't want to participate in this a

"I don't fucking want to be inside the same room with that asshole. I'm leaving," I said and withdrew my own hand held by Luke.Luke turned to me and frowned, "Do you know him?" He asked me."No—""Yes," Benjie and I answered simultaneously. Seeing him right now makes me want to crample his face in my hands. Annoying."What's the matter? What happened— Benjie, why is there blood on your lips?" Sister came out of the room we had come from earlier and I heard her approaching us now.It was only then that I noticed that there was blood on Benjie's lip so I smiled a little. He quickly wiped you and forced a smile to dispel the embarrassment."This is nothing, sister, I have some food for the children." He replied frowning at me. He's doing charity? Are you Benjie? The fuck?"Oh, thank you very much son," when the nun approached, Benjie immediately nodded so my forehead wrinkled even more, what the fuck is happening?"God have mercy .. by the way, this Sadie used to be from here and she br

Speechless.That's the only word I could use to describe how I am feeling right now. Looking at the majestic scenery of the People's Park in the Sky, I could only part my lips open and lay my eyes softly at the incomprehensibly beautiful view.The air is unbelievably fresh and cold, very contradicting to what it's normally like in the Philippines. There's only a few people around the area that are like me, silently appreciating the view.After minutes, Luke came beside me holding a stripe red and white blanket. I looked at him softly when he knelt down to spread the blanket over the grassy hill.When he finished setting up, he sat down at the right side and tapped the left side of him to offer me a seat. I stared at the vacant place next to him and wondered why is he doing this.He came to Makati with me, escorted me to the orphanage, defended me against Benjie, accompanied me to a restaurant with a fake engagement to get a pair of free desert, and then took me here. Why on earth .. d

Ray? .. I think I already heard that name before .. who is she?"Hey babe!"To my surprise, a man suddenly appeared from my left. He leaned over me and grinned like a dog. Even his face was like a chinese crested. When I recovered from the shock I remained seated and raised an eyebrow at him."Are you alone?" He asked like a fool. Based on his tone, it was obviously drunk. I really hate drunk people who can't get a hold of themselves. Annoying.I picked up Luke and I's cellphones and held them tightly. It's hard. When I didn't answer him he laughed softly as if insulting me. That's it. That is exactly what I want to convey.He grabbed what was in his pocket and showed it to me. It's a red key card of I think, one of the rooms here. I looked at him reluctantly and it didn't take long either because his face was nauseating. I got up and turned my back on him but my eyes widened when he pulled my jacket from behind!"'Don't be rude! I'm still talking to you—"I quickly confronted him and

"For real?" I asked because I couldn't believe that Sage and Luke actually met because Sage was flirting with Luke's teacher! Oh my God.He just nodded and grinned slightly as he set aside the canned beer that he must have consumed. We have been here for almost an hour and a half in one of the Picnic Grove cottages. We are satisfied with the beautiful view of Taal.Actually, there is a lot to do here. There are eco trails, horseback riding, zipline and cables rides but we preferred to relax here in the cottage for the song he would do. The earlier about the song we talked about now turned out to be how they met his band."I'm only friends with Ricci because he's a family friend and we go to the same school. You know San Carlos?" He asked.I nodded. That school is big and beautiful, but LCIU is even more prestigious because it is for students from different countries."She 'young though, 20 maybe? Sage was 16 and they don't belong to the same school since Sage goes to LCIU back then. H

"If you were given a chance to change your past, would you change it?" Luke asked as he bowed to me.We are now lying here on the bed of my room. He finally canceled his room on the other side because he said we were going home today and he would never go back there.After we .. what .. kiss in the car, we quickly came back here to get dressed. He was even a little angry because he thought I might get sick. Corny. Fortunately, we were able to buy clothes last night.He was lying facing the ceiling while I was lying on his arm. The weirdness of my position because I was facing him and he was holding my hand resting on his stomach."Sadie,"It was only then that I returned to trance. To my surprise I looked up at him when he called me. I didn't notice I was already spacing out while we were talking here."Hmm?" I reply.She sighed. "Right now .. you have millions in your pocket. Don't you want to heal your scar?" He asked who was able to stop me.He's right. I have millions, my family h

I looked at my own reflection in the unit’s full size mirror. I'm still wearing a shirt and my jacket is already dry so I can use it again, that's all I don't want to wear my turtle neck again because it's dirty and hasn't been washed yet.My eyes widened to the side of my neck where the redness of the mark left by Luke was obvious. I just sighed before smiling. I should he scared right now for my brothers would throw a fit if they see this, let alone it's from Luke. I suddenly remembered Sage's order.‘I’m telling you Sadie, especially that Luke. You'll only get hurt. 'What does he meant by that? Will I be hurt? Is Luke in a relationship right now? I bet he's not. I know and I believe he wouldn't come here with me if he has a girlfriend. Who is a sensible man to admit that he fell in love with another woman if he already has a girlfriend?And I .. felt his sincerity while kissing me. I know he likes me too. If we'll continue to work on being a better person for each other then I thi
