"Oh, is that your face? You have a period, girl?" said Rose and took my arm. She looked around. "Brenda said your baby boy is here. Where is he — oh, he's there!"
I lowered his hand to point at Sage. I pulled her towards Brenda.
"Why is there a woman with that? Wait, it's Lorie, isn't it? Your guest from the Education Department?"
"Yes, that's him."
"Hey, why did you leave? I'm sure he's flirting with Sage, Kaia! Yard your man properly! Don't let that slut steal something from you!"
"There's nothing to steal, Rose. What do I care if Lorie flirts with her? She seems to love it so they'll take care of it," I said bitterly. I almost struggled with annoyance.
"Why are you late, Benita Rose ?!" said Brenda as we approached her. She was talking with a boy earlier. He also moved away as soon as he saw us approaching.
"I even bought drinks! I brought brandys and whiskeys! They were in the car. Those are my gifts to you because we're goi
"There's nothing to fix!" My voice raised."Tell me.""Just leave me alone, will you?"He scoffed. "How can I let you if I know you're mad at me, huh? Do you think I can just leave you alone with this cold treatment? That's bullshit, Kaia."Yeah. It is bullshit. Really."Are you mad because I talked that way about your admirer?" He asked, annoyed.I gritted my teeth. Thinking of it now, I can't pinpoint the exact reason why I am this mad. Yes, I was annoyed because his comment to Warren was bad. But that's too petty for me to get mad like this.Or maybe I'm just afraid to accept the real reason why I am acting like this."I'll be back there." I tried to walk but he held me again."Let me go!" bulyaw ko. His grip loosened, taken aback with my rage. He moved his mouth and backed away slightly."Don't touch me again," I said emphatically.I walked out without looking at him. I went back to the table only to se
"The heat! Can't we just insert in the queue? There are a lot of people who like you there so I'm sure they'll let us go first," Rose said while shrugging herself with her hand. I can't count how many times he struggled."That's not possible, what are you. Maybe before we can enroll the women in the back will pick us up."Rose just kept on renting. Many were the first to get the priority number because it took us a while to arrive. Brenda namana is supposed to enroll on the second day. He still seems to have a walk today.It was past twelve when we finished there. He almost got into a fight because a woman bumped into him and he almost fell down. Fortunately, I stopped. Rose really has a bad temper especially and she just came from a long wait."Will you eat?" Kenneth asked."Yes. Don't come along," Rose said once dragging me off campus. I turned to Kenneth and found him shaking. I mouthed, 'sorry' and he just nodded. Two men approached him so I fa
I went to the kitchen and and washed my hands. I leaned on the sink then. I looked down on the floor and crossed my arms as I shut my eyes tightly. I took another deep breath."Why did you leave there?"I almost jumped and suddenly my eyes widened when someone suddenly spoke. I saw Sage walking towards me. I can feel like my heart had plans on wrecking my chest because of it's rapid beating."Can't stand your jealousy, huh?" he asked coldly.My heart beat faster when he stopped in front of me."You shouldn't be surprised. Livius is no prince charming, Kaia." His jaw clenched.Jealousy? Livius? What is he saying?"I do not know what you're saying.""Your mixed signals is fucking frustrating."I can not talk. I couldn't even understand what he was saying!"Why are you here? Go b
Sage brought me to their table. Lorie was nowhere to be found. Only his friend is left. Sage offered me the seat next to him, so there I sat. Jonas faked a cough that made my cheeks burned. With his swearing earlier I’m sure he saw what happened."Kaia, aren't you singing?" Livius turned to me. I felt Sage's hand touching my shoulder. His arm was on the ledge of my chair. It was like putting lines on his territory.Jonas playfully smirked."Maybe later ..." he glanced at Mama who was karaoke. I don't want to ruin their moment. Besides, I think I like it better ..."You want us to duet? I'm good!" Livius suggested that made Sage hissed."Silly! There might be an earthquake when you sing!" bara ni Jonas na natatawa."I'm ashamed of you! You're good at singing, huh? That's why when you locked up that Crim student, you were ignored! You were so stupid!""She has a boyfriend, idiot! So she doesn't touch me because she's loyal to her
"Outside were Livius and Carson. It's eight o'clock so they have to leave. "I nodded. After they left Livius I immediately returned to the room. I lay down on my bed, wishing I could sleep but ended up staring at the wooden ceiling for a long time.After idling for almost an hour, I grabbed my phone. There were messages there from Rose but I didn't open them. I looked at Sage and I's message thread. He still has no reply. If so, he was actually with Tania as Carson said.I sighed bitterly and turned my phone off. I put it on the side table. I tried to sleep again but I still couldn't really sleep.I just went down and mixed Milo. After I drank that, I went back to the room. I thought the hot drink would help me sleep but it didn't.I looked at the wall clock. It's 9:30 PM. Usually, this is the day Sage calls on weekdays. We texted last night. Today I have not received any text from him. Maybe he got tired of it. Who is the man who will just settle
After foundation week I was busy with activities like booths and whatnot. Sage visits me once or twice a week.And I am contented with that. I know he's busy too because he's been here for the last year. I don't even want him to remember me. I am busy in school. I know he also have his own requirements.Even so he never fails to text me every day. He always finds a time to remind me to eat and do my homeworks. He calls me at night, too. That is if we are both idle.I sighed while on stage, helping to decorate there for the Miss Asian College to be held tomorrow.I was asked by my blockmates to represent the Accountancy Department. A professor of ours also asked me about that. But I refused.My interest is not in line with pageants. That's why Rose was our representative. He didn't want to at first because he didn't really participate in such things.But I pushed him because my classmates might still be pressuring me. Aside from that, Rose is
That’s why I can’t be bothered as we set up the booth. Rose was not there because she was preparing for later. But our blockmates were there to help."Your samples, put them there, Frank," I commanded a classmate. He fixed his thick glasses and immediately followed what I said. He looks nervous. He almost spilled the samples. Fortunately, his hand was fast."Hey Frank, you're too obvious!" Rowella laughed."She's dreaming of Kaia!" said a male classmate of mine.Frank bowed and returned to his former position. I rebuked the teasing of my classmates."It's really good and Damian's group isn't here now. Last year, they just messed up the booths," Wena said."Yeah, eh! Damian would have been handsome in case the devil still beats the habit!" Rowella agrees.I did not speak and continued to cut the cardboard. That's also my opinion of Damian. I just really hope we don't cross paths again so that he doesn't mess with me anymore
"Are you comfortable here?" I asked Sage as he sat on the stool I gave him. We were on the side of the booth.I stood in front of him while he looked up at me. I looked at the goods. Rowella is busy with customers. I glanced at the food that was there before turning to Sage."Would you like to eat first? We have dumplings, tempura, squid rolls, hotdogs. Do you eat like that? If not, there is other food in other booths. Do you want to buy me there?""I'm eating, Kaia. But I'm still full. Let's just have lunch together later."I nodded."Can I help you?"Wena and I heard that so they looked at our behavior. Frank and Ivo fix the banner across from the booth."Oh, don't! We can do this! Don't worry, we won't feed your girlfriend to customers!" said Wena and laughed awkwardly.I was about to correct what she said but Sage talked first. I just kept my mouth shut."That's good to hear. Just tell me if you have heavy things to
