Chapter 21: Messy night with him
"It's already late yet you didn't eat your dinner," said Lyndon. When he saw my sulking appearance, he flicked my nose and smiled. "Hop in. It's my treat."
The corner of my lips twitched. I didn't hesitate and immediately got into the passenger seat of his pick-up. He drove the car out of pier one.
"There is a restaurant near Plaza Indepedencia. I heard they have good cuisine," he said after a few minutes.
"Is that resto still open? It's late," I said.He didn't answer. I snorted and looked outside the window.
He suddenly asked. "Are you often like this?"
"Hmm?"
"This, eating late." He glanced at me before turning the wheel. He looked at the road ahead again. "Skipping meals is bad for the body."
"No. I always eat on time except tonight."
The car went silent after that. I didn't want to talk and he was silent during the whole drive.
The streetlights were open and the establishments were

Confused feelings I waited for him but he never came back. Sighing, I looked down on my wristwatch. It's ten o'clock in the evening and my stomach's grumbling due to hunger but I didn't mind it at all. I was eagerly waiting for that man but I guess that bastard ditched me. What the heck. I was startled when a few raindrops fell on my face. Looking up at the night sky, I wiped those drops away and sighed for nth times. "Miss Rishel, I think it's going to rain. Please take shelter under the tent first so you don't get wet," warned by the man who's passing by the parking lot. I smiled at him. "Thank you but it's okay." He scratched his nape and smiled wryly before saying goodbye. I just stared at his retreating back. It's good that it hasn't rained yet, but I knew that I shouldn't just stand here waiting for nothing. I took a deep breath and stepped forward, toward the way that Lyndon and the woman took earlier. I don't know why I'm feeling agitated imagining him with that woman.
For The Stars Have Sinned Chapter 22: Another victim
Another victim The next morning, Lyndon drove me back to Arbor before he'd gone home to Baclayan as what he said last night. I didn't waste time and immediately prepared myself to school and let Gerard drove me to Argao where the campus is. And now, I was scorning while staring at my test papers. The result of the exam came out and I was not satisfied with it. Where did I go wrong? Is there a number I didn't answer? Or are there instructions I didn't follow in the test? I sighed. I did everything but why? Reun, my seatmate, came up to me and looked at the paper I was holding. "Oh. Just one more point and you'll pass, Larica," he said when he saw my score. I became more depressed. Yep. It would have been just one more point but it hasn't been given to me. Annoying! I looked at Reun badly. "Tell me, who checked it?" "Block D maybe." "Block D?" I frowned. My eyes squinted and I gasped. "I should ask the one who corrected it!" I yelled and even raised the examination paper. "Hey,

That was the last time I talked with Jamaica. When we sat in each other's class, we didn't pay attention. Although there were some group activities after a quiz, we're not fated to be groupmates so we couldn't talk either. I didn't mind it though. People like her who like to control the emotions of other people to gain advantage for themselves were not suited to be with me. Or so I thought... When the afternoon arrived, I went straight to the waiting shed opposite the University gate and waited for my pickup. But, I've been standing there for several hours but still no one came. I called Gerard but he told me he was still taking Mama to the fishing port in the city. "Just take the jeepney, Joy." I looked up at the dark sky. "But it's raining, Mom. I don't have an umbrella." I raised my free hand and caught the raindrops from the roof of the waiting shed. I sighed. "Just call Pipoy. He might have returned home to El Grande." "Alright, Mom." I hang up and dialed Mang Pipoy's nu
For The Stars Have Sinned Chapter 24: Stop courting
Stop courting I didn't say a word but Lyndon didn't plan to let me off the hook. "She's the girl I'm talking about," he said. Kervy was silent while my heart was beating loudly. I didn't want to let Kervy know that Lyndon has something to do with me nor let Lyndon know that Kervy's courting me. How I wish the two would never know each other because I'm ashamed. I was clearly taking advantage of Kervy and Lyndon's smart enough to figure it out soon. "I see," Kervy said after a few minutes. He even glanced at the rearview mirror to check on me. "Rishel's the girl I'm courting, cousin." Lyndon glanced at me and I looked away. I looked outside the window, overlooking the scenery while the car's traveling towards North. I was just surprised when Lyndon suddenly brought his mouth close to my ear and whispered. "You dare to play with my cousin, Miss Larica?" he asked. I bit my lower lip. I threw him a hateful glare which he generously accepted. My shame only deepened. "Shut up," I warne
For The Stars Have Sinned Chapter 25: Wrong call
Wrong call I sighed. I didn't pick up the phone because a guard already did that. "Just throw it away," I said as I entered the mansion. I lied down on the bed and thought of Lyndon's smiling face. Is that man happy that I cut ties with his cousin Kervy? My two eyebrows met. The next day, I entered the University for another set of exams. The result can be obtained on the same day so I got it by afternoon. When I receive the paper and saw the score, my eyebrow raised. "Eighty over hundred? From whom did you copy?" Reun asked suddenly when she glanced at my paper. I laughed at what she said and jokingly hit her on the arm. "You're really mean to me. I did study before exam, okay?" I said and rolled my eyes at her. "Study?" Her eyes narrowed, and she looked at me from head to toe. "Rishell, you're not the kind of person who reviews lessons." I looked at her for a few minutes before snorting. I don't really like to study lessons but since I failed the exam, I realized that I shoul

I haven't seen him for a few days but he looks different. He got a haircut. If before he looked like a domineering CEO, now he looks like a member of the military.It's good for him because he looks like a member of the AFP. I raised my eyebrows when I saw that his muscles were bulging because his clothes were so tight.But my eyes narrowed when I noticed that his forehead was slightly wrinkled while looking directly into my eyes. He doesn't seem to want to see me, huh? When I remembered what happened the last time we met, both of my cheeks suddenly warmed up. I looked away. I suddenly felt ashamed especially since I rejected Kervy less than a month ago."Oh, why do you look at me like that?" I asked annoyed. I folded my arms and glared at him.He looked at me from head to toe. "You don't mind if I see you like this, Larica?" He folded his arms so I frowned even more."I'm dressed nicely," I said.He looked me seriously in the eyes for a few seconds before the corner of his lips lifte

I couldn't save the merch I bought before. Fortunately, I hid the gifts from CLGF fans well so they were not burned along with the other merchs. Even though I wanted to stop the maids but I couldn't because Mama was there, looking like everyone's her enemy.I just sighed and looked at the dark sky.The wind was blowing hard and the rain was pouring heavily. I can almost feel the vibration in the handy umbrella I use. The field of the University is so wide that I have been having difficulty walking since the pathwalk is muddy. I'm afraid the doll shoes will get dirty and I'm going to receive another sermon at home.I shut my eyes and sigh again. The campus gate is still far away but the hem of my skirt is almost wet. I have no choice but to run to the campus gate. I don't mind about the splash of mud every time my shoes hit the wet ground."Here I come!" I whispered and took refuge in the waiting shed outside the campus gate. Finally arrived!I folded the umbrella and shook my skirt. M

"The next food ration is at twelve o'clock," he said. He placed the tray on the bedside table. "Do you need anything else?" he added.I shook my head and sighed. The wounds I got that night were painful even after I took painkillers. The nurse approached the bed and put a pillow on the headboard for me to lean on.I closed my eyes and asked. "Have you contacted my parents?""Not yet. But the department is trying to retrieve your cellphone data." He glanced at me for a moment. "You really don't memorize your parents' numbers?"I shook my head. But I stopped when I remembered something. "That friend of mine. I memorized his number.""Good." He picked up the pen and paper hanging at the foot of the bed. "Write the contact number and we'll tell your friend you're here.""Okay thank you."I accepted the paper and pen and wrote down Tiden's number. His number is the only thing I memorized on my contact list. Suddenly, I stopped writing for a moment. I missed Tiden who was so overprotective.
