It was a cold night and electrifying moment as Carx hold my wrist and pulled me away from them. We just headed outisde the restaurant and took few steps till we reached the van where they’ve parked it. I looked at him in confused look. I am actually intense with what he just did to me. I know he got an audacity to embarrass me and belittle me infront of hi friends. “Take your hands off me, sir.” He get off me and grinned as he said, “I don’t want you here.” I froze in a moment and I stuck staring to his eyes. He have those tamed yet not really calm one. He have the confidence but dangerous. He have the peace, but chooses the chaos. And I have my principles, yet I decided to get trampled on multiple times by his reckless tongue.I get hold of myself and stop tears coming out. I swear to myself that this would be the last time I’m getting his insults. I’ve had enough. I breathe in and smirked while I lift my head from as if trying hard to avoid showing off my emotions of how painf
I arrived at Camila’s house widely smiling and make her confused as I sat on the edge of her bed reminiscing what happened earlier. I was shock to hear her teasing me about the guy, which he meant Feliz. And I don’t know why she have the idea of pushing me to him. She poked my waist and said, “I didn’t know why you came up here to just show me how happy you were these days.”“I don’t know what you’re talking about. I just got embarrassed earlier, that’s all.” I defended myself from her curious eyes and how she looked at me trying to rip off my lips as I wry aggressively. She chuckled and rolled her eyes as she said, “I don’t believe you. Anyway, I want to ask you something.” She looked at me after she went through her mirror and probed her face both sideways with a grin added question, “How do you know Carx?” Her voice was serious that it made me nervous what to tell. Should I tell her that I am working to him before? Or just made an excuse of who was that guy?“Huh?” I acted like
I silently accept the water that Istanio gave. I feel so small and uncomfortable here. I sometimes feel how it’s to much to bear seeing how Carx would just glare to me and expressionless. I forced myself to calm from shivering. He stood so chill, fierce and unbothered. He was holding his cigarette inserted between his fingers and can beer in his left hand. They’re boisterously laughing with his friends who are also drunk. I quickly shifted my gaze and look directly to Istanio’s eyes when he reached for my hand and gently squeeze it.“Sorry if I startled you,” he said and laughed after he let go of my hand immediately. He forced a smile and looked at my eyes with concern. His eyes were beautiful at this closer look. It was brown and how his eyelashes also was effortlessly attractive.“No. It’s fine,” I replied and already intertwined my fingers as I stooped so low, avoiding his eyes deeply looking into mine. I sigh as when I heard Carx laughed softly. “When did you just worked here?”“
After a week staying again in my hometown. I became indifferent and somehow feel I have able to forget things that I went through from his cruelty. It’s harsh and seems that life isn’t for me, I scanned my room after I have cleaned the area before leaving tomorrow heading back to the city for my college’s semester.A knock interrupts me that I swiftly turned into. It’s mom holding her phone and was checking on me by her suspicious eyes. “You really ready to go, dear?” she asked and tilted her head after noticing my curtains were changed,“Well, I’m not. But I wish I’m prepared for the school,” I said and giggle as I reached her arms and snaked my arms to her, grinning playfully. I looked at her ensuring the hope for them. I ran to an opportunity that I’ve regretted my whole life without them knowing. I appreciate how my parents poured their sacrifices and support for me. Thus, I swear to get hold to claim my manifest’s outcome of endeavor.“Sooner, I’ll be taking you as well to the c
I continue myself doing daily routine. It was unusual for me to act like everything would seem to be an episode from series I’m watching while I was in Junior High School. I feel how things instantly changed and even heard how my relatives experiencing difficulties due inconsideration that auntie’s children been doing with their lives. I was stuck staring on my phone as I waited myself to arrive back to the city. Where I’m deciding to get an apartment and look for part-time jobs since there’s only remaining week before my class starts. I have to try things I never been into, which sadly doing house chores are the basic job I knew suited for myself as an average kid.The province is calm as I expected. The falling leaves, clean lawn and yards. Untamed waves on the shore during high tide in the evening. How the moonlit reflects the ocean and stars flickering from thousand miles. I wish to have these by my embrace. I’ll be missing the harmonious environment where I grew up. Cities been
I unpacked my things already and went downstairs to help Camila for cooking lunch. I still remember the time we’re playing at their spacious living room and now already half of it was replaced for new room added for their guest. Which where Camila’s cousin staying. I rushed going to their kitchen and saw her already wearing sleeveless top with still jeans on. “Oh, hi. Are you done already?” She asked while her eyes focused slicing the butter. I walked towards her and smiled. I saw how she quickly rose her left brow and determined glaring at me. I pulled other ingredients she’ll going to use for cooking later. She was about to grab it from me that I have avoided away from her and slowly arranging them on the counter. Mostly are cans, spices, and other seasonings for marinating the chicken meat she have put in the freezer earlier before I’ve changed my dress.“I never thought you can cook,” I said and teased her with my mischievous grin. “Oh, probably you’re practicing to impress som
I took a quick nap around two in the afternoon. My phone vibrated and immediately picked up. I saw the consecutive missed calls from unknown number. I’ve clicked the message sent by Camila a minute ago. She was asking me if I could accompany her going to shopping. I am still half asleep and cannot process what’s going on. I even forgot that I’m at Camila’s. I stare blankly to the left corner as I sat already on the edge of the bed. I sighed and blinked thrice. I instantly stood up and went to the door after three knocks. I was surprised to see it was Auntie Sarina. I smiled at her and looked at my face. “I thought you’re with Camila?” She said and peek inside the room behind me. “Are you comfortable here?” She added and examined thoroughly the interiors. I nodded as response and asked, “Whose room is this, aunt Sarina?” She’s was startled by my question of nowhere. There’s no sign of secrecy plastered her face. I saw how she cheerfully held my hands and made a
The neon lights welcomed us when we enter the venue. It was fancy and the decorations are all expensive, especially they also got musicians attendees. I just wear the dress that Trexon gave me and did a light makeover on my face. I was just following Camila as she’s holding her glittering purse and beaded gown which is just half on her thighs. She was dazzling and her hair tied in bun make her even look majestic. I got conscious the moment I step in and have familiar the place. I got worried when I noticed a gesture of a man walking directly to me with his hands in his pocket.The DJ have played romantic songs and I saw how the girls at the left side giggles when they’re teased by their partners. They’re all in pulchritude and I would love to adore their appearance tonight exaggeratedly. I see how the girls are exchanging kisses on both of their cheeks. I turned around when Camila calls my name and wrapped her arms around me as well. She looked at me enthusiastic
