ABBYGAIL"Did you contact Matthew?" I asked Mia for the nth time now. I'm so worried right now. Since he walked out of the clinic, I felt so scared, and to add to it, his assistant couldn't contact him."Abby, can you contact him yourself? Andrew is now glaring at me because I keep going to the bathroom to answer your call. I will give you the number of his assistant, or you can call him again tomorrow. It's already late, Abby. Maybe he was already sleeping." I bit my lips, but maybe Mia was right."Okay, Mia. I'm sorry for bothering you. Just send me his assistant's and Matthew's numbers, and I'll try to contact him tomorrow.""Okay. You rest now, Abby. It's already one in the morning.""Okay. Good night, Mia, thank you.""Don't mention it. Now rest.""Okay. Bye Mia.""Bye."I lay beside Arabella with my arms around her. Your daddy is back, baby, and I'm sure after you told him your father's name, I know he regained some of his memories. But why he left? But even though he didn't ack
ABBYGAIL "Bella, baby, come downstairs for a while. Daddy wants to ask you something." I called up and slapped his hand that crawled under my shirt and threw him a glare but pretended he did nothing. I pinch his side, earning a kiss on my cheek. After a minute, Arabella came running down the stairs. "Hey, don't run." Matthew races to the bottom of the stairs to catch Arabella in fear. But Arabella only giggled and jumped to her father's arm. "Hey, careful there, little one. You might fall off the stairs." Matthew kissed her cheek and returned to my side. "I'm a big girl now, and I always run up and down the stairs and never fell even once. I'm careful while running on the stairs, Daddy." Arabella reasoned out. Matthew sigh. "Accidents always happen, Baby, so please don't stop making Daddy, Okay?" "I'll be extra careful, Daddy, so that you won't worry. What do you want to ask me about Daddy?" "Do you want to eat lunch outside, Princess? Then let's go to the park and eat
ABIGAILI sighed for the nth time, listening to my two friends boasting and blabbering about their boyfriends. How hot, and how a good kisser, sweet, loving, and a lot more. I cringe and twitch my lips, rolling my eyes in annoyance. Every day, these things I heard from my friends made me gag in disgust, especially when they talked about how their boyfriends stuck their tongues in their throats. Ewww!!!! Yuck!!!!I don't envy them. It just annoyed me to hear every single day. Mia changes her boyfriend every week, saying she can get any guy she wants with just a wink of her eyes, while Cora has lots of guys like her because of her feisty attitude. These two not to boast, but are very popular in our school, because of their beauty, that's not the only reason, they are also intelligent like me, that's why all the students wondered how they become friends with a wallflower like me.Yes, I'm intelligent, and my two friends said I would be beautiful if I changed my fashion style. Still, I do
MathewMy friends and I went to the mall to eat at the food court. Leo told us they served the most fantastic steak he ever tasted in his whole life. We were laughing and joking while walking inside the mall and quickly settled at the seat that was in the far corner away from the other."CLICK!!!! A bright light blinded my eyes for a few seconds, and my vision cleared; I saw a girl standing three feet away from me, holding her phone. She's wearing this oversized shirt, double the right size for her body, baggy pants, and a Converse. She tied her golden brown hair in messy buns above her head. I blink my eyes once, thrice, before everything that happened sinks into my mind. I quickly stood up, and My chair created a loud sound when it scratched on the floor. "Did you just steal a picture of me?" I asked, my eyes ready to strangle a girl before me. She blinked her eyes, and then slowly, she backed away. "No! No! You're not leaving." I muttered. "Until I smashed that phone on the cemen
ABIGAILI stood frozen near the closed door, scared. My sweat is now rolling down my back because of fear. Five pairs of eyes looking at me brought more fear all over my body."Miss, are you just going to stand there? One of them said. He has this mohawk hair and a bit bulky body. I jerked, startled. The tray that I was holding almost fell, but I was glad that it didn't because I was sure I was going to lose my job."I'm sorry, sir. Here's your drink." I slowly walk near their table and serve their drinks in front of them. He's handsome and hot, but why were his eyes fixed on me? Oh my god, I hope he won't recognize me."If you need anything else, sir, just call me." I hurriedly went to the door, eager to leave. "Wait!!! More sweat formed on my forehead when I heard his voice. I'm going to die now. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath before I turned around and faced them, wearing the sweetest smile I could master on my lips."Yes, sir?" He was looking at my face, and then he stoo
ABIGAILI groaned in annoyance and groggily turned off my alarm clock when it went off. My body still aches slightly because of sweeping the street and running yesterday. I lazily stood up, went inside my bathroom, and bathed. After that, I dressed up for school. I made a sandwich, stepped out of my tiny apartment, and locked it while eating my sandwich, walking toward the bus stop. This is my life since my only family died, my mother. My father, I don't know who he is, and I don't have a plan to find him. My mother died because of breast cancer almost two years ago, after two years of struggling with it. I did my best to earn money for her medication and Hospital bills, but nothing happened.I took a deep breath and wiped the tears from my eyes. My mom is the best in the whole universe. When I was young, she gave me everything I needed. She works starting from seven in the morning until two in the morning to earn money for our daily expenses. She has three jobs every day, but I neve
MATTHEWI groaned in annoyance when someone peeled a comforter off my body. I ignored it and pretended that I was still sound asleep. I still felt sleepy because I slept late last night thinking about that girl who stole a picture of me. What is her purpose for doing it? Is she connected to a kidnapper or some syndicate? I quickly bolted up from my bed when a pillow hit my head. "Andrew!!!! I hissed in annoyance. "Hurry and drag your lazy ass to the bathroom. Do you know what time it is now? We need to leave after thirty minutes. Go if you don't want me to kick your lazy ass toward the bathroom." I threw a deathly glare at him but stomped to the bathroom. I took fifteen minutes inside and sighed in relief when Andrew was not in my room anymore when I stepped out of the bathroom. I quickly dressed up with my black skinny jeans, plain fitted white shirt and top it with my black leather jacket paired with my black boots. It is our first day in our new school, Dream High University. I
ABIGAIL POV'sI slumped down on my seat between Mia and Cora, not minding to greet them as soon as I stepped inside our room. My body, as well as my legs and feet, still ache because of running, climbing, and jumping at the ten-foot wall for the first time in my life, and even I can't believe I did it. My god, that guy is something. It's just a damn single picture. He won't die because of it. If only I knew that damn picture would turn my life into hell, I never stole that damn thing. I cursed and laid my head on my folded arms above my desk, feeling frustrated with myself for doing a stupid thing that resulted in my misery."Bad morning?" Mia whispered, wearing a teasing smile on her lips."Just tired," I answered, ignoring that playful glint in her eyes. Mia sometimes really can be annoying that I wanted to choke her and never let go until her breath left her. Sometimes, she's very insensitive to my annoyance, or maybe she just having fun annoying me every day. Still, how insensiti
