Reiri’s POVTwo years after senior high school graduationWe are now on our way to the city. A smile has never left my lips since we left. Because I finally got the chance to wander around and mingle with humans. This is one of the things that I have been wishing to experience for a long time.Summer break is really one of my favorite long days.I took a glance at the guy beside me. I was surprised to notice that he was already looking at me.My eyes fell to where his right hand was. I saw it slowly crawl towards mine, and when our hands finally met, he intertwined our fingers.We just looked at each other. Gradually, he started to smile too. Everything feels so perfect. Until...“How many times do I have to tell you that holding hands is not allowed?”But just like any other dream, you will suddenly wake up to the truth, and the fairy tale-like story will come to an end. The feeling is so enchanting that it makes me forget that it’s not just the two of us who are here.I glared in my
Miley’s POVTwo weeks after Kyle’s proposalI glanced at my watch and saw that it was already 7 PM. If I’m not mistaken, the party started at 6 PM.After waiting for a few more minutes, I finally finished taking care of the things I needed to do at school. I quickly ran out of the building and headed towards my parked car to go to my next destination.Today is the university’s graduation party, held at a nearby bar downtown. Kira and Mikan were already there. The truth is, I didn’t have any plans to go because I haven’t graduated yet, although I am allowed to attend. The reason I changed my mind is because I wanted to surprise them.Yesterday was their graduation, and today is their post-graduation celebration. It’s nice because all the royalties were present yesterday, including Kira’s parents. They left just this morning.I parked my car in an empty slot at the parking lot. I quickly got out and walked straight into the bar. The security guard let me in as soon as I showed him my un
Nicole Jane’s POVEven though it was already late at night, the surroundings were still bright because of the flashing lights while the loud music that was currently being played could be heard from every corner of the mansion. There are even some people who are shouting and laughing as if there’s no tomorrow, which irritated my ears even more.My debut party had a fairy tale theme. I was actually against it because I preferred a gothic theme instead. But my parents won’t give in to my plea. As their only child and daughter, they insist that I should look like a princess on this night. That everything around should look magical.But what I really hate tonight is the fact that they have invited my classmates to come over. Even though they knew that I wasn’t friends with any of them. I even barely talk to any one of them. Unless, it’s school-related. Besides, they also had invited some guests that I didn’t know personally.Fortunately, they somehow allowed me to remove eighteen roses fr
Nicole Jane’s POV“You behave there, okay? Don’t worry, we’ll always call you,” Mom said.I just rolled my eyes and plugged in my earphones. I was tired of their reminders.Since the day they told me about my fiancé, they hadn’t mentioned anything about it again. They didn’t even give me a chance to speak again because they suddenly left at that time.I also asked them about it several times whenever I had the chance because I was really felt uneasy. But they didn’t really give any other explanation. Up to now, I’m still hoping that what they were saying wasn’t true.I don’t know what my parents were thinking to put me in such a precarious situation. I haven’t even been in a relationship or even admired a single man in my entire life. Then they’ll just break the news that I will be married off to someone?Then out of the blue, they broke another news to me. That I’m going to transfer to who knows where. They didn’t even tell me what the school was called nor where it even was. They we
Nicole Jane’s POVI only had forty minutes left before my first class starts. So, I quickly got inside my room. I hadn’t been able to take everything out of my suitcase because I didn’t have much time to put them on the cabinet. Why did I have to move here right on the first day of school?I am now standing beside my bed with my arms crossed, staring at the necklace and bracelet laid on top of it.There was another bed here near the window. So, I was sure that two students could occupy the room. Although I was happy because I was still the only one occupying it right now.“Whatever happens, don’t take it off.”“That will serve as your protection, so you must always wear it.”Until now, I could still hear their reminders, although I didn’t fully understand yet what they were for.But I just realized. If these two were really that important, then I shouldn’t wear them and just keep it in a safe place instead, because I just might end up losing them both eventually.I winced as I again f
Nicole Jane’s POVI froze on the spot upon hearing his deep cold voice. My heart was pumping so loudly against my chest, and I couldn’t even make a single move.When I finally had the courage to take a step back, my eyes widened in horror when he suddenly showed up in front of me.Wait. How the hell did that happened? I didn’t even notice him pass me by!My mouth dropped open, and I couldn’t help but be stunned when I was able to observe him freely. He was so damn tall that will make you look up at him. He also had pale skin, red lips, pointed nose and a pair of brown eyes.Also, that messy hair of his doesn’t look bad at all because it suited him perfectly. His hands were both buried in his pockets, and he was wearing a plain white shirt with a black leather jacket hanging on his right shoulder. It was paired with a brown pants that he finished off with a black converse.I blinked when he smirked, revealing his deep dimples. It felt like I was going to pass out any moment from now.“
Nicole Jane’s POVI was startled when I heard a series of knocks on the door. I didn’t have any intention of bothering with it. But it seemed like whoever was disturbing me had no plans of stopping.“Wait a moment!”I lazily got up and rubbed my eyes. Once I stood, I immediately headed towards the door and opened it for whoever was on the other side.“What is—” I wasn’t able to finish my sentence because Mikan suddenly hugged me.“What the? Get away from me!” I quickly pushed her away, and luckily she let go immediately.“Geez, you push so hard! While you’re the one who just woke up and hasn’t even taken a shower yet.” She pouted, then went ahead inside on her own.My eyes widened as she went straight to my bed and lay down.I was about to pull her out when I glanced at the round clock hanging on the wall. I gasped as I noticed that it was already past seven thirty in the morning. Our time is at eight o‘clock!I quickly grabbed my things and went into the bathroom. I can’t believe I t
Nicole Jane’s POV“Are you really sure you’re okay? I’m sorry earlier for not being able to help you.”Mikan kept on talking beside me with her head bowed down. Since our class ended, she didn’t stop talking even though I wasn’t paying any attention to her.I don’t have any ill feelings towards her. Honestly, it’s better that she didn’t do anything earlier.The thing is, she’s too kind. I’m just not used to someone talking to me and being concerned like this. It feels weird.“I’m really fine. Besides, I’m not expecting any help because I don’t even need it.” I crossed my arms. She looked up at me this time.“One more thing is that, I can handle those girls by myself. If Kyle didn’t show up, they would’ve surely regretted it,” I determinedly replied.I continued walking, and suddenly she screamed beside me. Other students around us turned to our direction.I turned to her with a puzzled expression. Did I say something wrong?“Do you know how adorable the two of you were earlier? Especi
