Somehow, Cara's presumption is valid. I won't deny that I've been a bit dependent on Zammy these past few days, as Cara seems to have forgotten about me. I felt sad and alone all of a sudden. From the very beginning, Cara was the reason why my marriage to Craig became less heavy in the end 'cause I held on to what she said and promised... Cara will stay beside me, that she won't leave me, that she will take care of me, that she won't let me be alone. I depended on her the entire time, even if I didn't plan all along. I suddenly felt like that, and I got used to leaning on her.This vast house that can't really be called home isn't so sad because of Cara.I was eager to head home after school, hoping that I would have a chance to catch up with her. I could endure to stay in this empty place because of her. "Hey! Are you crying?" I turned my back on her and quickly wiped away the tears I didn't realize were falling.It looked like the gathered and stuck dudgeon suddenly escaped from

ALMOST a week had gone by without Cara and I talking. I know she peeks at me in my room whenever she gets home, but I always pretend to be asleep. I can lock my door, but I can't figure out why I don't do it. Every night, it takes me until dawn to watch k dramas. I do that purposefully so I would wake up late and get the alibi not to join Cara for breakfast.Sometimes, Eroz, Zammy, and I hung out together. Because that was the only chance for Craig and Eroz to meet, as the days passed, the inexplicable feeling I had for Cara was overwhelming, and I couldn't even think about Craig anymore.Maybe I've moved on from Craig somehow, and I can say that we're friends now than we used to be, just acquaintances and connected under the circumstances of being married. We seem closer than him to his sister. Cara is always out, and I don't even bother to ask or to know anymore. "Daphne." I suddenly stopped going down the stairs. I thought she had already left the house because it was one in the

WITH THE additional achievement of Cara and Kazzy, we commemorated outside. We ended up at a club that Kazzy also owned. Her family is indeed wealthy and has many various types of enterprises. I found out, too, that Cara didn't spend any cents she and Kazzy had business with, perhaps due to her parent's will again. That's say how Kazzy believes in Cara's capability to the point of trusting everything to Cara, making her the CEO, too. While I was drinking at our table, Cara and Kazzy were having fun on the dance floor. I'm just looking after Cara, but it's like watching my favorite movie in the cinema. Every angle of Cara's body did not escape my keen eyes. She got the moves that could quickly get you hooked. Add to that its perfect body shape. Who would not be attracted to her? "Hello there," a husky voice suddenly grabbed my attention. "Can I join you?" Without permitting him, he sat next to me with audacity. I tried to stand and ignore him, but before I could do that,

"Cara!" My deep thoughts brushed off in an instant when Craig appeared. "Daphne is looking for you. Where have you been?" C'mon! Is she really looking for me? If you are already by her side? Mentally, I said. Isn't she with the person she's really looking for, Craig, my twin brother? "Cara, are you even listening? It seems like Daphne can't live without you by her side, so go." I just followed. If only Craig knew what he was talking about. He's the one Daphne can't live without, not me. I shrugged off whatever was on my mind earlier and went back to Daphne. "Cara!" Hearing her voice calling my name the moment I opened the door was enough to lessen whatever bothered me. I saw her eating pizza with Zammy. There was a pang of discomfort in my heart as I thought of something again. Just a while ago, she was not hungry, yet now enjoying the pizza brought by Zammy. Who else? It's just the two of them. "Come.. Have some. You didn't eat anything yet, Cara." I just followed her and sa

We are now at Miho's club. Even before my ass warmed up, I started hitting the alcohol. "Slow down, Daphne. You won't run out. We're not chasing time either." Weaning and comment by Ziggy, who's beside me. "Ziggy is right, Daphne. We're not here just to drink but to relax from our pressures at school. Don't turn liquor into water," Bridgette said, preaching like a Priest. "Listen to them." Miho agreed and then led the cheers, raising his cup in the air. "but let's not ruin the night. We should have fun! Wooahh!""What's bothering you, anyway, Daphne?" Paul now spoke after sipping his booze."You know we're your friends. We're always here to listen to you." I appreciated his words and him. Should I tell them about the days that have been disturbing me? The feeling that I don't understand and keep messing up my world?I heaved a deep sigh, collecting all the courage in every spot in my body before I opened my mouth to finally unleash everything that I had been concealing for almost a
