DEREKI stared at Antonio and Mirabel from the door.My friend gazed back at me, but Mirabel didn't. She just took her eyes elsewhere, getting comfy on Antonio's lap.And the sight of this was beginning to eat me up."What's up? " Antonio asked, running his hand in Mirabel's hair, and petting her.I held back my feelings towards this, pulling myself together. I needed to be calm than getting annoyed. Cooling my mood, I asked Antonio, " I thought you said you'd head home as soon as we arrived?""Oh, shoot! That's true, " He exclaimed, lifting Mirabel's head off his lap and jumping out of bed."I haven't been at home for days. I promised my parents I'd be home today, " He shared, smiling at me then at Mirabel.When he said that, Mirabel's face came all dull. She stared at Antonio with sadness in her eyes, like she was begging him not to leave her alone.And my friend noticed this mood from Mirabel. He smiled at her, cupping her face, saying, "Hey, don't worry. You're home now. I just

DEREKAfter a whole week away from school, I was finally back.I stood outside the gate, staring at the building I've been away from for a week.This same building is where it all started, and I'm going to end it once and for all.Strapping my bag across my shoulder, I walked into the school with a long face, ignoring all the eyes that fell on me.Students that haven't seen me since Mirabel's incident, gazed in surprise when I arrived.They must have thought I wouldn't resume yet since Mirabel was attacked brutally."He's back? I thought I heard his father was going to change his school?""No, his friends said he was made to stay back because of what was happening. His father was mad at him when he heard he bullies that loser.""I'm happy he's back. I've missed staring at his face."They gossiped at my arrival, making an attempt to get closer and ask how I was doing.But when they saw my raging gaze, they all backed down, drifting away in fear.As I drew closer to the school building,

DEREKThe lectures came to an end.All of Mirabel's course mate came surrounding me on my seat, asking questions on my one week absence.They wanted to know if I was the one who chose to stay back or if my father was the reason. And what was my response?"That old man decided to keep me under house arrest because of Mirabel. What could I have done? He's my father after all, " I shared, portraying a victim in their midst. And since they didn't care if I was at fault or not, but just loved me for my status, they backed me up."Yeah, what he did was wrong. It's not your fault that she got attacked by someone in this school.""Exactly. Who knows the person she messed with this time around.""I bet she didn't see the person and just decided to blame poor Tania for it.""Or maybe she's scared. "They all laughed, making fun of Mirabel in her absence. I was heartbroken just hearin

DEREKHis eyes read fear on seeing me. His whole body shivered from where he was tied, mumbling through the tape across his mouth."Old nerdy here was hiding in the library. He didn't want to step out, until I used a girl to call him out of his den, " Antonio shared, grabbing Tim's head, bending it backwards. He gave out a hurtful groan with tears streaming out of his eyes.He dropped them on me, mumbling once more through the tape.He knows what he has done that's why he's pleading with his eyes.Drawing closer to him, I yanked the tape off Timothy's mouth, causing him to scream out in pain.He cried out, pleading with the word Please, escaping his lips. "I didn't do anything. Please, let me go," He sniveled."Are you serious now? You didn't do anything?" I scoffed at his cries, sticking the tape to his left eyebrow."I'm sure you know exactly why you're here, Tim. It's best you come out clean or we do it the hard way, " I threatened, making sure the tape was stuck to his brow prope

DEREK"Have you sent the voice record to me? " I asked Antonio while driving the car.We just dropped Timothy at the bus station not too long after passing a strong warning to the nerd, not to tell anyone what had happened.I was making my way back to the mansion with Antonio, having Mirabel on my mind. I haven't taken her off after hearing all Tim had to say.It was hard."Sure did. I sent it before we left that place, " Antonio said, showing me the sent audio of Timothy's confession. There's no way I was going to let him speak the truth without having a record of it. With the cops seeing me as a suspect and my own father having no trust for me, I needed to show my seriousness to this case and get myself off the hook.This voice record will help, but not fully well. I still need to get more, and that's from Tania herself. "I'll send this to the police. But we still need more proof to pin Tania down.""Yeah, you said something about handling it on your own. What do you plan on doing

DEREK"Honestly, I'm not going to miss this party, " I said to my friends, who were busy notifying me about a party taking place at our usual club.It's taking place this evening, but I don't plan on going with them. In fact, I was pretending to be excited about it, all because of Tania.She was close by with her friends, listening to our conversations like she always does.We were standing near a tree on the field and she was just close to it, right at the other side.She snuck over with her friends, thinking I didn't see her. But I had to just pretend like one who was engulfed with party excitement.Just as we were talking about the party, Tania and her friends suddenly came out of their spot, acting all surprised."Wait, are you also heading over to the party? " She asked, staring at me with a wide gaze.I tilted my head, glancing at my friends who were surprised to see her here with us."Yeah, we are. Why did you ask? " I questioned, smirking at her.Suddenly she and her friends g

DEREKAt last, the culprit was caught.Right there in the club, Tania and her friends were arrested before all. They were in so much shame, unable to look at others, who had their cameras flashing at them to reveal their deeds to those who were yet to receive the news.I stood aside with my friends, who were stunned by this sudden turn event. They couldn't believe that I had a hand in Tania's arrest.They were stunned."How did you get the cops here on time? " They asked, watching a crazy Tania yelling at the top of her voice.I told my friends how I contacted the cops over before we arrived at the club. "They needed to be there, if they want to get her in the act, " I said, staring at her. She was busy claiming innocence while everyone laughed, taking video of her and her scared friends."They brought this upon themselves," I said, sounding serious.One of the cops, who had visited the hospital the time Mirabel was admitted, came up to me and said, patting my shoulder, " Sorry for d

MIRABEL"Is there anything I can help with again?" Antonio asked my mother, offering more assistance.He had followed us down from the mansion to our home, assisting us with our bags.I didn't want him stressing himself about it, but he refused to listen to mom and I, so he helped us with our bags, bringing it down to our house."That's all, Antonio. Thank you so much, " Mom appreciated, smiling at him."I'm happy to help, " He said, giving out a big grin, which he directed at me.Where I stood behind my mother, my face came flushing at Antonio's beautiful glow. It made my heart shimmer, leaving me blushing."I'd take my leave now. Don't want my sweet parents calling me. They can be worried despite their son being a grown up man, " He joked, laughing out.Mom and I laughed along with Antonio, watching him take his steps, as he got ready to leave."Just wait for a few minutes, son. Please, I'll be quick. Just have a seat, " Mom requested."Is it something urgent?" Antonio asked, being
