We’d paid for our dresses and bought a few other accessories that cost a few grand. After this shopping, I would probably get broke for draining my bank account but I hope my parents wouldn’t kick me out of the house. I wasn’t going to spend a lot of money on clothes, but since I was already there and I was tempted, I had to buy one. It wasn’t that I was thrifting, I just hated it having to wear the same outfit like the ones I’d used before. So I decided to go with the dress since it was my money after all.

When I was trying to lash out from his grasp, he tightened his grip around my arm as I winced in pain. No matter how hard I tried to pull away, he would tug me further and I was left perplexed. Since we squeezed through the crowd, I could barely make out who it was. The dim light also didn’t help. The throng of intoxicated people kept colliding with us, blocking our way and we barely pass through them. What confused me more was that Amanda and Emma didn’t even come to prevent the guy from pulling me away from them.When we passed throu
When I woke up the next morning after the conversation I had with Danny, he wasn’t there anymore. I guess the moment I slept, he returned home and rested. I woke up feeling grateful to him because it put out the weight in my chest despite the heartache I was feeling. Today, instead of sulking over what happened between me and Liam, I chose to look forward to what Danny had said to me last night. I was keeping my fingers crossed that Liam wouldn’t let go of the things we’d been through because I thought I was ready, but I wasn’t. I thought I hadn’t clung to the hope that we could make our relationship work this time, but I thought to myself that I couldn’t do it without him. Maybe this was just a challenge and it would make us stronger. Maybe the world was just telling me to stop my wrongdoings and focus on improving
I stabbed the lettuce with my fork and gritted my teeth in annoyance. Amanda and Emma were staring at me in confusion while they gazed at my hand that was tightly gripping my fork with my knuckles turning white. I was beyond pissed at Nicholas for declining to back out from the plan but, at the same time, I was even more pissed at myself for letting this happen. Nicholas wouldn’t have got his hopes up in getting Lindsey to fall for him if I hadn’t convinced him that he would be the only temptation she couldn’t resist. I also should’ve thought this through before making a decision that I would probably regret soon.I guess I never learned from my mistakes.&nbs
I looked back and forth between Lindsey and barbie in confusion. This wasn’t a coincidence that they were both in the same area right now, looking at each other as if they were communicating with their mind. Just seeing barbie plaster a smug face, made me grit my teeth and clench my jaw. And the more I thought about how they’d plan to set me up but practically failing because I aimed at Lindsey, it was making me feel more infuriated. I wasn’t a fool to not realize this trap Lindsey hauled me in, and they should be thankful that it didn’t work so I wouldn’t come after them.
I glanced at Danny beside me and saw a smile already plastered on his face. My eyes glimmered as the emotions started to surge in. All the pain heaved in my chest for the past few days had finally been lifted out and I could finally breathe with relief.I looked back at Liam as he stood a few feet away from me. With yearning and anticipation, I ran towards him and he just stood dumbfounded with his feet glued to the ground. Though he was completely caught off-guard, when I laced my arms around his neck, he pulled me in a tight hug. His warmth was
Liam pulled up in front of our house as I stared distantly to through the windshield. My hands were tightly gripping my pleated skirt while I tried to steady my breathing as silence consumed us. No one talked. He didn’t want to budge. So I flicked my eyes beside me and towards him, tugging a faint smile before sighing.“Once I step out of this car, everything that happened between us will remain a memory,” I started, breaking the silence inside his car.
“Tomorrow is the homecoming,” Amanda enthusiastically said, clapping her hands together as Emma and I both stared at her. “I can’t wait to wear the dress they’d sponsored me.”“You’re so excited about wearing the dress while I’m looking forward to the homecoming after-party. It will be so fun.” Emma nudged me to my side as I shifted away from her.
“What?!” I exclaimed, feeling the heat starting to surge in.Danny ran his hand through his disheveled hair as I started to frown at him.“It just slipped out of my tongue while we were having a conversation about you. I mean&mdas
