Patrice’s P.O.V.-“What’s wrong with you? Why are your cheeks red and why do you look being stupid? Do you have bad feelings like you have a fever? Do I need to take you to the clinic or, better yet, to the hospital?”After I asked Shin many and many questions, he did not even answer a single one.Well, how can he speak or not? How can he answer my questions to him if he is just, dumbfounded as if he is still deep in thought, other than that he is still holding his heart?“Shin?” I called him, but he was still stunned.I raised one eyebrow because I couldn’t think of anything else that made him act like this. His thoughts seem to be deep in the sea at this time.Aish. We still had a lot to talk about and then he was dumbfounded. The school bell would ring in a few moments.“Shin.” I called again.I still shook him and he still looked the same and acted bitterly.“If you don’t want to leave there, fine.” I said.I decided to eat my breakfast instead of waiting for him to wake up on h
Patrice’s P.O.V.-I did not do anything but follow what Brena and Isabelle wanted after they singled me out, including Andrew.Brena wasn’t kidding when she said that she would tell the rest of our classmates just so I could follow Shin.Brena told everyone that Shin and I haven’t gotten along and that if I don’t explain to Shin what I did, they will report me to our teacher that I did something stupid.I shouldn’t shock to them all. I know that even if my classmates are like that, they will not harm me or even one of us. That’s why I love that classroom. I love my classmates. They are all very different from my classmates from the previous school I attended.But, after each of them, including Andrew, suggested that they could invent a story to report to the teacher, I was scared.Apart from the fact that I have to catch up on grades until the last periodical this school year, I thought that this would be a good chance for me to talk to Shin in depth about what the two of us are goin
Patrice’s P.O.V.-I raised an eyebrow after Shin suddenly moved to the other table with the book he was reading about—I don’t know. It’s just a book without a picture.My gosh, doesn’t his head hurt after reading a book like that?Well, that should not be my focus. What I should focus on is how Shin and I can get out of here.This is the building where other students don’t go and we are still on the third floor.We can’t pass through the four windows because there are iron barriers that I think only I can fit, but on the other side of the window, I will go straight to the ground floor where when I go down it’s either I’m lame it’s really just a drop or lameness. That’s why Shin and I can’t go through anything but the door at this time.I tried several times to open the door, and I also screamed for help from outside, but no one heard us. Another thing is that maybe the class is starting now, so maybe this detention room has been closed, so if anyone plans to sleep here, they won’t b
Patrice’s POV-“Let’s change the topic.” My suggestion, “The two of us have a lot to talk about.” I added.“Just like?”I looked around. Maybe someone else will hear what I have to say to him.“What are you looking around for?” he asks. “I just want to make sure there’s no one else here but the two of us.”“We’re locked here so no one else can enter here.”I opened my mouth and then looked at Shin. “You’re right. I did not immediately think of that.”“When did you think?”“Excuse me? What are you implying when you say that I am stupid?”“I didn’t say that. You said that.”I rolled my eyeballs after Shin said that.What is Shin’s problem? The way he changed his moods, he surpassed a woman’s mood. Earlier he was just angry, but now he seems to want to flirt. But, at least he’s in a better mood than before, one question, one answer and one move to the other table.“Okay.” I said first. “Let’s talk about the real agenda between the two of us. I mean, the two of us should be talking now
Patrice’s POV-I kind of early entered the school to wait for Shin here at the main entrance. It was only sixty-thirty in the morning when I was here at the gate but it was past seven in the morning now and I was still here waiting for Shin.The security guard gave me a seat, which I accepted because my feet hurt from standing up and waiting for Shin.This morning I needed to talk to Shin in depth about what he told me about yesterday. I called him last night and while I was about to call him, I fell asleep.I made a hundred plus missed calls to Shin’s phone number last night but he didn’t answer even one of them.Even more, I don’t understand why so many girls like him while I can’t see any reason why they can like Shin.Don’t tell me the people who like Shin because Shin is smart and handsome? Well, I guess those two are the main reasons, but I think those two reasons are useless if Shin is a playboy. Maybe he didn’t answer my calls last night because he was busy flirting with othe
Patrice’s POV-I stand. “What’s your question again, Brena? I didn’t understand much, and I didn’t hear much either.” I asked her as she approached me.“I said we should go to the classroom. The school bell is about to ring, otherwise you will be late waiting for Alex.”I first looked at the students who were entering and the students who were not far away who were going to the gate. I haven’t even seen Shin’s shadow yet, so maybe I’ll be late if I wait for him for a long time.I looked at Brena again and then nodded. “Let’s go inside the classroom together because Shin might be late, come.”Brena just nodded at me with a smile.But when Brena and I started walking together, I immediately stopped walking. I don’t know, but it seems that something in my brain told me to wait for Shin for a few more moments before I entered the campus.“Hey, Patrice. What’s wrong?”I smiled at Brena. “Maybe you should be first in the classroom. I’ll just wait for Shin here in a couple of minutes.”“Ar
Patrice POV-I took a breath after dividing what could be my waking schedule to avoid being late, but just looking at my schedule, I just want to cry and at the same time I immediately feel sleepy.If I follow my schedule of waking up at 03:30 am, I won’t be able to sleep anymore. But, if I don’t follow it, I’m sure that I can’t avoid being late one of these days and my parents won’t be able to visit me here or even my brother, I’m sure I will be so doom.They don’t know what I’m doing here. “Patrice?”I almost jumped in surprise after I heard Andrew’s voice.I quickly hid my notebook in my bag. Following I saw Andrew walking towards me—he was walking on his seat to get his wallet.“What else are you doing here?” Andrew asked me.I felt like I lost myself when Andrew talked to me while we were just the two of us in the classroom.Suddenly, a lot of ideas entered my mind about how I could be very close to Andrew, the idea that I would never think about that. Maybe tomorrow we two wou
Patrice POV-I quickly jumped out of bed after I heard my cell phone ring again.I groped the large space of my bed until I found my cell phone, then I immediately answer the call. “I think you slept again, Patrice?”I fell asleep?I quickly got up and checked the time on my phone.“Oh, my gosh!” I exclaimed afterwards. I saw that it was only ten minutes before 03:30 in the morning.I put my cell phone to my ear again. “How did you know I fell asleep again?” I laughed and asked Andrew who I was talking to on the other line.“It’s been almost two weeks since we talked at this time and I don’t think you’re used to waking up at this time.”I breathed a sigh of relief when Andrew said that.Andrew is right. In the almost two weeks that he has been my alarm clock, I am still not used to waking up this early.Even though I know Andrew is the one I will talk to when I wake up early, that’s still not enough motivation for me to wake up early.“Hey, Patrice. Are you still there or maybe you
