34: A Jealous Man's Kiss
"You seem bothered... hmm," Neri said when we met at the school library. It's been three days since the last day I saw Rage. But what happened back when we were in El Fuego is giving me a damn hard time until now. I can't get it off in my head like a bullshit drug. I should get over it, right? It's just a fucking kiss! Anyone could kiss me like that! I shouldn't be bothered!
I sighed heavily as I turned the page of the culinary book I'm reading.
"What happened? Spill the beans, Elena. We're just here so don't be shy. Did you... uh, did you..." I looked up at her. A malicious smile is plastered on her face. That moment, I knew what she's possibly thinking.
"Of course not!" My voice was not loud but very firm.
She grinned. "Er, why do you seem to be affected by that? How many days have I noticed you like that. So I jumped into conclusion that something happened on your last date."
"Shut up, Neri. Nothing like that happened, no. It's just your illusio

"I was late for my first class earlier. Well, Prof Minchin scolded me again," Neri said. Let's go home when we meet. When I got home last night, I texted him to see if he was home safely. It was morning when he replied, probably because he was drunk.I asked her if anything happened but she told me there was none. There I breathed a sigh of relief."That's what you've got from drinking too much last night. I don't know about you. You know you have low alcohol tolerance and then you're all drinking. You're really crazy."She snorted. "You didn't even stop me!""You're busy with Albert. I didn't realize.""Sus. You mean, you're busy with Leo!"I chuckled and shook my head. Afterwards, she suddenly stopped from walking. We stopped in the middle of the hallway of the building. She turned to me with narrowed eyes. I frowned."Ah! I remembered!""What?""I forgot why you suddenly disappeared. Now, I remember. Rage came! I also

"Go Wilson! Go Athelians! Go ADU!""Shit! Wilson is really handsome!" Neri giggled beside me.The students shouted louder at the bleachers as the game on the court got hotter. Our university's opponent is LIU. Their basketball players, led by Harris Formentera, one of the loudest names shouted inside the gym, are also great. With us was Wilson Quintana, the team’s captain ball. Also included were Shawn, Peter and Leo who also contributed big points."Go Harris! Go Lavanians! Go LIU!"“The LIU captain is also handsome,” I said."Wilson is more handsome, no! What are you? We have to support our team!"I scolded Neri. "Sus! You mean, you type Wilson!""What now if yes? He's really hot, you know! And besides, dean's lister! He's the ideal man, Elena. He's only been graduating for one year. And that's definitely suma cum laude."I shrugged and resumed watching."Go Wilson!" Neri joined in the cheering.
The Assassin and The Alpha 37: Wait Until Then
On Friday, I had just come out of the culinary laboratory after the food presentation when I received a text message from Rage. I paused to read the message.Rage:I'm at the parking lot. Are you done?I was about to type a reply when someone approached me. It was Zoren, flashing his boyish smile. I put down the cellphone first."Hi, Elena. Are you going home?""Uh, yup.""Let's have a snack at a nearby café first. If it's okay with you ..."If it is a normal day I will accept his invitation. But it's not. Morris was waiting for me"I'm sorry, Zoren. I have a walk, eh. Maybe next time. But not now."He smiled sparingly. "It's OK.""Alright. I'll be the first," I said before he turned away. After a few steps away, I lifted up my phone and typed a short reply to Rage:Me:I'm coming.Rage:You're coming? I haven’t done anything yet, ah.My forehead furrowed and didn&rs

I sneezed and formalized the walk. The attention of reporters immediately went to us as we entered the banquet hall of the hotel where the celebration would take place. I am holding Revo’s arm while our mother was beside me. Mama answered a few questions before we glided to the hall.We are not with papa. He needed to attend an important event. So just the three of us went. They are close to the Vasquez family. I don't have problem with Aunt and Uncle I just don't like their child. Beatrice is a bitch beneath her mask."Happy birthday, Florencio," Mama greeted Uncle. I spotted Beatrice. He immediately approached us and clung to his older brother like a leech. Times like this, she can't hide her aggressiveness.How pitiful."It's good that you were able to attend. Philip?""He has an important appointment. That's why we were the only ones who went. I hope you don't mind."The old man chuckled. "I really don't mind, Helena. I know your h

For days, I practiced cooking. Rage came to watch me more often. I didn't have time to go out with Neri. After school, I went straight home. I admit, those days were exhausting. Especially since there are also school works that need to be done. But at the end, it was all worth it when the result was announced.Congratulations on coming out of the culinary lab. Neri cried and hugged me tightly."Congrats, Elena! I told you so and you will be the one to choose!"I laughed. "It's just luck, Neri."He let go. "Luck? No! You're really naturally good! It's not about luck, it's about talent!"We walked down the hallway of the building. We meet greetings that I just reciprocate with a smile. I was just so overwhelmed. I don’t think I would be a freshman to choose from. I was even so nervous the whole time I'm presenting my third dish!"This deserves a celebration!" she chirped."Yup. Go to the mansion. Let's celebrate there. What?"

Gradually, my breathing calmed down. But I didn't open my eyes. Now that the heat has subsided, I remember what we did. I can feel how my face burned when I remembered how I pleaded for him to do it.I feel, I am no different from the women he became. I was too desperate just for his touch. And I gave up myself just because of thatHow foolish you are, Elena.I closed my eyes even more because of the thought.Moments later, I felt him shifted a bit. He caressed my waist and kissed my shoulder. Fortunately, I turned my back on him. He won't see how red surely my face was."I'll just cook for us. Rest first," he said.Eventually, I felt him leave the bed. I pursed my lips firmly, eyes are still closed. I'm exhausted and embarrassed. Probably, Rage is now thinking how pathetic I am. I swore that I'll never link myself to a womanizer, especially to my brother's friends. Yet I gave in to him. I gave myself just like that. Worst, I even begged.

Rage raised his hand, and boyishly waved, eyes are still on me. The people around looked at me, and all I did was to stand and stare at Rage. I was still dumbfounded. I blinked and stared as he glided towards my way.It felt like my eardrums are gonna explode anytime soon because of the loud cheers around. But I didn't tear my gaze to him as he continued gliding towards me.I blinked again when he stopped, just inches away from me. He's still smirking, looking amused with my expression. I took a deep breath, tightened my grip on the strap of the bag and looked at him again.Damn! I didn't know a policeman could be this handsome and hot!"What's with all of these, Rage?" I asked, almost a whisper.He cocked his head and pursed his thin lips. Formally stand up and sneeze as if trying to get serious. My forehead furrowed, unable to read what he was thinking."I'm Police Officer Rage De Luca from CIDG, Miss Mongreco," he said firmly with a ghost

My hands were cold and were almost trembling. Beads of sweats formed in my temples while my body was slightly shivering because of tension.I am now already cooking the third dish for the contest. It was almost a miracle that I reached the final phase. All my opponents are from higher batches. Now, there are only four of us left.And just looking at how my competitors presented their dishes for the first two phases, I knew they weren’t casual. So I became even more nervous especially since there are definitely a lot of people watching what is happening here backstage. The judges, my schoolmates and my family. I don't want to disappoint them."It looks like the fight between our contenders is heating up even more!" I heard the emcee say on stage. That was followed by a loud shout from the crowd. I heard them cheered different names. That includes me. As many ADU people came to support.I wiped the beads of sweats using the back of my hand. I don't wa
