Chapter 22
I fell... right? But why didn't I feel any pain?
I slowly opened my eyes and saw Xander under me, "are you okay?" He asked with a groan, and I immediately stood up to help him.
"You're asking me if I’m, okay? You're the one who's groaning in pain!" I said in concern, his position a while ago was very far from me, so I was very surprised when he saved me from the fall.
"Oh my gosh you two, are you both okay?" Allison rushed to us; I managed a nod but I still looked at Xander who's holding his forehead.
"I'm okay."
"He's not."
We both said and I looked at him to see that he's glaring at me.
"Well, I'm glad Kaia's okay, so

"Do you really can’t go with us? We can eat at your favorite restaurant if you want.” Allison said and she kept giving me her puppy eyes look.I shook my head and gave her a grin, “I really can’t Allison, I still have to go with my groupmates. Kierra already ordered food and I was too shy to decline as they did a good job on the announcement board…”She pouted that I felt guilty, “how about you and Xander come to my book uh… I don’t know what it’s called.” I said in realization, is it a book report? Story telling? The two looked at me expectantly, “A book recital I guess… it will be held at the university, I could need some support.” I said awkwardly.Allison squealed, “of course we’re going! Right Xander?” she nudged him, and he gave me a soft smile, “I wouldn’t miss it.”We went back to the room after lunch to do the final touches o

“Alexander, I told you I already dried my hair. Please stop throwing water at me.” Cassiopeia complained but Alex didn’t do anything, so he looked at her with a raised eyebrow.“I didn’t do anything, what do you mean?”Just then, he felt something on his head too, he looked at Jade who is behind him and Jade crossed her arms on her chest, “do you think I would do that?” she muttered and looked at the sky as droplets of water started to pour.“It’s raining, come on inside the car.” Alex said grabbing Cassiopeia’s hand, but she won’t budge.“Never mind that I dried my hair already, I want to play in the rain.” She said happily, “I don’t” Jade said rushing to the car leaving them getting wet.“It’s okay if you don’t want to join me Alex, being here was enough.” Cassiopeia s

We had arrived at the sushi place and boy was I hungry, we sat at a table for four and I immediately grabbed the menu.“Foods on me since it’s Kaia’s celebration.” Jake said proudly and Xander rolled his eyes, “I can pay my own meal thank you.” I put a palm on my forehead with a groan.Now why does this feel like de ja vu?“Oh free food is the best!” Allison suddenly said calling the waiter and I mouthed a ‘thank you’ to her, relieved that she butts in before a fight breaks in. We all ordered food and started eating in comfortable silence.“I’m so excited for the school festival, you’re coming right?” Allison asked Jake surprising us all.Jake looked at me before answering her, “of course, Kaia invited me.” She hummed in response, “great! The more the merrier, I can’t wait to meet your sister too Kaia.”I choked on my sushi

“Grandma, grandma! Can you read me another story?” Kaia asked her grandmother as she was being tucked in bed, “but I just read you one already, aren’t you sleepy now? It’s late already.”She shook her head and began jumping up and down, “I love listening to your stories! Don’t worry when I grow up, I’ll know how to read long words by then and I’ll read all your books all by myself!” that made her grandmother laugh, ‘that’s great, you better start practice reading… now come here and I’ll read you another one and you’ll sleep after okay?”Kaia nodded and went back to lying on her bed.Her grandmother started the story, and it wasn’t long before she saw Kaia’s eyes began to droop and she fell asleep. She closed the book she was reading before she pulls the covers up to Kaia’s shoulders. She kissed her goodnight before going out the room, turning

Silence... a warning that time was running out. He held her closer to his body."I don't have much time..." Cassiopeia whispered, of course he already knows that. He can't just accept it. He wanted to do something, anything just to keep her alive."Please don't say that." he said softly and touched her face, memorizing every detail of it. She shook her head, “You know I'm bound to die eventually." she said, stubborn as always and he smiled sadly.He's going to miss that attitude of hers, "Let's just---***"KAIAAAAA!" I winced at the loud voice who interrupted me doing my work. I was already on the good part and now my concentration was lost.I glared at my best friend who entered my room panting, probably because he ran all the way here. I looked at him and saw sweat fall from his face. Still, he looked handsome for me. Then he looked at me and smiled.That smile... one of the reasons why I f

"What time is it?" I asked him."It's 3 pm"I overslept, having such a weird dream kept me from my work and now I'm a little behind schedule. I quickly stood up and grabbed my notebook. "Hey, you must have fallen asleep while doing that and yet here you are, writing again. Wow, I'm amazed by your passion.”I rolled my eyes at him. Should I tell him that bizarre dream? Well, it was just a dream but... It felt so unreal."I think you should eat first or better yet, fix yourself first. Your hair looks like a haystack." he joked. I touched my hair and became self-conscious. Seriously Kaia. Just because your best friends don’t mean it’s okay to let him see you look like that."I uh... need to go to the bathroom." I excused myself.I'm so stupid. I know I shouldn't be embarrassed because he'd already seen me at my worse, but I can't help it with him being a guy, much more the guy that I like. I brushed my

Alexander paid for their crepes and was about to go back to where Cassiopeia was, when he saw her fall. There are a few things that scares him, and one of them is seeing Cassiopeia unconscious. He dropped the food as he run towards her, his heart beating loudly with every step he takes. As soon as he had gone to her, some people have already gathered around them. “Cass… Cassiopeia. Love! Wake up!” he pats her face softly hoping she would just wake up. Someone walked towards them and started checking on Cass.

My eyes are blurred, full of tears that I couldn’t see the person who’s coming towards us. I heard Jake arguing with someone, that voice is familiar, but my drunken mind couldn’t decipher who that person is.I stopped crying and wiped my tears, already forgetting the reason why I was crying in the first place. Suddenly, a hand grabbed my arm breaking me out of my daze. I looked up at the person and saw Xander, with a clenched jaw, he runs his hand through his hair.“I’m gone for thirty minutes Kaia. Thirty minutes, and I’d come back to this? What happened? Why are you crying? Did that guy hurt you?”Dang, even though he’s angry he’s still hot.“Kaia! Are you even listening to me? Wait… are you drunk?” I didn’t get to talk, as he argue with Jake once more, leaving me with my drunken thoughts. I felt lightheaded and my stomach started to churn. “Xander.&rdquo
