Chapter 10
Offer
“W-What’s wrong with you?” I asked when Nichy started to act weird. A small part of her came back to sense and check the scene she made. She slowly turn to me then to Harvin who tried to check if she was all right. I stood and tried to reach her but she hurriedly shook her head.
“I… I don’t want to.”
So is this her idea with what Casper offered? Nichy’s forehead is dripping with her sweat, eyes trembling and would not let the guys finish the offer.
“Hey easy… let us first clear this out--”
“I’m done in here.” She quickly picked her baggage and head straight at the exit not waiting for me. I was confused. What is really wrong with her?
I faced Casper, before anything else I still wanna clear the thing idea. “I&rs
Chapter 11Totally over"Why do you look so devastated?"I raise my head to sight Imelda who just laid my breakfast at the table. I shrug at her and started to eat."You look ugly, do you know that?""Arg!" I almost choked from my food. Why is everyone so mean with my features?!First Casper who called me garbage, now Imelda with her ugly comment. Geez, Grimson is the home for creative compliment. I am being sarcastic here."My father told me I'm pretty!" I corrected Imelda while she's busy cutting her pork."Really?" She said boredly. "And you believe it? Pity you."I exhaustedly drank water and layed my head at the table. I still didn't answer her question. I'm afraid that she might scold me once again that I'm relaying on her. And also, I want to try what she said. To fix my own challenges, Mom and Dad is not here anymore. I accepted that fact a long time ago, and with tha
Chapter 12Salvation"Calm down," Casper used his assuring tone as he stroke my hair. But I was still so afraid, I'm sweating up and system ready to shut down. Imagination played wild on my thoughts."Casper you have to help me, N-Nichy. She has been kidnapped.""I know. I'm already figuring this out from the hunters."I don't really know what exactly those hunters intention in Grimson is, but I'm not dumb to neglect that they're willing to do anything to hurt our people. Hearing the news that Nichy was the one who was kidnapped made me act so hysterical. I'm so nervous, so worried that it's making me bones weak.What if they hurt her? What if she bleed? Is she crying?Nichy is such a kid, she'll definitely feel frighten by this time. And not being by her side is making me feel worthless. How come I can't be there for the first ever friends I made? I am so stupid! She was right!"I'
Chapter 13Beginning"F-For real?!" I stood with eyes open wide. "Am I not hearing anything... delusional?"Her expression earlier didn't change. It was all sincere and convicted to the phrase that made me go this hysterical. "You didn't misheard it, Gina. I am really willing to join the org now."I gently sat down by her side and took both of hands with confusion in my face. "Why? Why with the sudden change of mind?""Don't you like it?""Well I like it. I even love it. But the point in here is that, why did you change mind? I'm having this vibes that you're forcing yourself to join me—" she place her finger in my lips to cut me off."No, it's my own will. I just realize what you said yesterday and all the idioms in the world. It made me wonder for hours what true justice is. And it lead me to your words.""H-How?" She grin."You asked how long could I bear hiding and
Chapter 14UnfairTo sum it up, being a SSG officers wasn't that bad and cruel. Or maybe because I just haven't tasted it entirely. For now, all I know is that me and Nichy is doing all fine. Greater than fine! Even my sleep had been spectacular! I dream of many things like treasure hunting with Pter Pan, or something about money and that is my best kind of dream girl! The best!The news about us being part of the SSG reached every corner of the University. Some made a fuse about it, but they didn't dared to hit on us— well. I already have the freaking title not to messed with!I am really enjoying the previlege! But it didn't stop me to work harder. I am always register in my mind that I have a title to protect, plus Casper's reputation. That's why I have to act prim and proper sometimes. On addition, being a SSG member isn't a free ticket to claim the rank effortless.Casper reminded me last day
Chapter 15SignsI'm starting to see Grimson town weirder and weirder. Especially that University. I mean, why did they even implemented the unjust ranking system? As far as I can see, it isn't helping the student learn, they're all feeling tortured. And I am liking any of it, is thsi rebellion? I don't know if it is because of the fact that the curriculum is way different from the metro compare here in Howling University or the superiror in this University is just really going out of border?I heaved. I think I should stop thinking about H.U since it's weekend. It's been days since my encounter with Agatha. After that wild cat-fight we didn't see each other at H.U, I'm trying to avoid her. I also heard from Harvin that she is excused not to attend our SSG meeting.Today, Imelda and I went to the town market. It was originally just her, but I got so bored so I cling and joined her to buy some things. It'
Chapter 16AlphaIt's early in the morning. The bed is still inviting me to hug him tighter and sleep my ass off for the whole day! But knock came in echoing in my whole room. I glanced at it lazily.Come on! I didn't even reach the peak of my dream about the treasure hunting with Peter Pan! And the idea that I didn't able to play with Thinker Bell is really a kill joy! Why is Earth so cruel?!"Y-Yes?!" I asked yowning, eyes still close. My mind can't even function, do I even have that?"Get up! You're going to H.U early!" Imelda screamed like never before."W-What?!" I asked that almost made me fell from the bed, thankfuy the blanket got tight it's way on my feet."I said early!" Imelda stated last before walking out. My mouth hang open and jerked at the alarm clock."It's... 6 AM!"I feel like loosing my mind when Imelda totallu brainwash me to get up early and
Chapter 17Meeting"Make sure your uniform is well off! Every dirt I find in your faces will cause you punishment!"Aren't they over reacting with his visit? Prof Dal became more meaner than the usual. He even tapped my head with his stick to make sure I won't do anything stupid. Arg, right? I am really stressed with the idea of being forced to act prim and proper and here he is! Ruining my appetite! I want to bite him! If I were just a wolf, that's the first thing that I will scribble down in my bucket list!"I think it's time." Prof Dal said when we heard a bell rang. He faced us and smile. "Stand up all of you and fall in line. We're heading at the auditorium right now. The Alpha want to hear something from all of you, get that?"Wow, hear us? Really? That was really sarcastic of him. After him forcing us to be under his crucial ruling he's asking for a good compliment? What if I asked him about him
Chapter 18Warning"A Hidalgo, I see." He look at me from head to toe. Being beside him made me look like a lost kitty. I look so vulnerable for a totally grown up man like him!And why is he here? Why did he knew my name? Is it because of what happen earlier? Did I disrespect the mayor by staring at him? Is he going to kill me?!"I can read through your eyes that you're... afraid of me." No words fit into my mouth to give him the right answer."I... I..." My lips shake and took small step at the back. "A-Alpha, right. Hey..." My chest tighten like churos. "Yow." Did I just said the right word?
