Chapter 019.2—The Other Side of the Story
“Take it easy, take it easy, some things inside the boxes are fragile,” I said as soon as the boys helped me in taking out the stuffs that were supposed to make a ‘surprise’. Oh well, I also have to find a spot for them. Gladly, I already talked to one of the coaches in the university which I discussed with him one of my plans. It was really supposed to be surprise, even my arrival at that matter, but I wasn’t able to make it hidden when my sister had actually asked about my whereabouts. So, I got no choice but to reveal the truth that I’ll be visiting her in Japan. But that doesn’t mean, my 'real’ surprise is ruined. It has to succeed, no matter what happens.“Oh, so you need a place to hide all of your stuffs?”“Yes, just for the mean time. After that, I’ll be taking them out. I’m just doing this for my sister. I supposed you already know who I am.”“Well, just by looking

Chapter 019.3—The Other Side of the Story
“Oppa!” as soon as I entered the court, my sister ran towards me like a crying child as if she just lost her mother in the middle of nowhere. I laughed at her and as soon as she reached me, she hugged me tightly which I returned the same, “I miss you so much!” she said as she hugged me even tightly. “Then why not come back home?”She grunted, “You know how much I love this place now!”“Yeah I know. But you said you missed me. Don’t you think it’s time to come back home?” I asked, slightly dropping hints.“Nah. I don’t want to,” she looked away, obviously not wanting the discussion.“Yerin! Coach is looking for you!” I heard someone call, and upon looking at the distance, there I saw Ms. Sunaka’s grim smile.“Ah, right, coming!” Yerin faced me once again, “I have to go. You stay here. I’ll be back

Chapter 020
Chapter 020“Miss Xiao?” Qin called, making the latter to be awaken from her reverie, “You aren’t touching your food, are you feeling ill, Miss Xiao?” Qin probed as she watched the lady staring blankly at nowhere. Normally, Xiao would respond right away, but sometimes she wouldn’t, and that only means one thing. She’s ought to call her once more, this time it has been effective when Xiao turned to glance at her. She asked her the same question as before to which Xiao had half-heartedly answered with a yes. With a grim smile, Qin just shook her head as she proceeded back to the kitchen to wash the dishes. On the other hand, Xiao went back to staring at the wall blankly. The food was already prepared in front of her but she had no appetite. Thinking back, she seemed to be acting that way for the past two days. It’s like as if the news Mr. Jake had dropped back then has still yet to be processed inside her mind. ‘Cause even u

Chapter 021
Chapter 021Skipping her usual crop tops, Xiao decided to change her to-go outfit for today: a cream beige knitted turtle neck body-hugging sweater tucking it in her plain white pencil skirt. As today is a special day where she has to be more formal, she grabbed her dark gray coat as she finished everything with a knee high black socks paired with a pair of midnight black ankle boots. She looked into the mirror as she examined herself. Flashing a smile, she realized the outfit suited her more. She didn’t know she would like this as this might have been the first time she ever tried wearing one. Usually, she would go for crop tops and jeans as her comfortable clothing line, but admittedly, changing some of your habitual things could be a good thing. And this one has been good for a change. Before heading out, she quickly snapped out her black purse that was laying atop on her side table. She looked at the mirror once again before she hung the purse over her right shoulde

Chapter 022
Chapter 022Flashing a smile, Xiao entered the hospital as she greeted the guard, nurses and doctors she had met half way through towards the VIP area. After the heartfelt talk she had with Mr. Wilson, she realized she was already late for the scheduled time. Her father clearly told her not to be late, but look at it now, she’s walking nonchalantly as if she’s not running out of time. Who cares anyway, Xiao had thought as she slipped inside the VIP lounge leading to the personalized built-in restaurant. The Tatsunumi family member was the one who built the hospital, including her own attended university. It was personally built according to Xiao’s great grandfather’s taste in interior designs, Tobayashi Tatsunumi, who became a well-known architect during his time. He may be the person behind of those two famous infrastructures, but since one of them was sold to someone after its completion, so the sole owner of Kiyachi University wasn’t

Chapter 023
Chapter 023It took about ten minutes for Xiao to return back to her seat. The people were loudly talking to each other as if there’s no tomorrow. Xiao couldn’t even understand the topic. As soon as she was seated, her father greeted her and she just responded the same. Unlike other businessmen, Xiao noticed that her father was the peculiar one as he seemed to be the most matured compare to others who acted so comfortably as if they’re just staying in their homes. When it comes to her father, he’s the complete opposite. He’s such a fine man; as she watched him slicing the steak so delicately. Xiao couldn’t hide her smiles as she stared at him. He was looking down but his eyelashes were still evident. He looked so calm amidst the danger he has been into recently. It’s as if he got no problems running inside his mind. He’s the actual type of a man that Xiao wants. The calm yet serious type. How she wished she could actually find s

Chapter 024
Chapter 024“Hoping to see you back in the university!”Those were the last words from Jun before he ran off. They kept ringing in Xiao’s ears, non-stop. She started to think about it over, whether she should go back to the university when the graduation is fast approaching. Her father was never against with her decision when she wanted to be homeschooled and he also never discuss about it furthermore; he just directly asked for the school’s director in charge about that matter and the request was fast approved. But now that she’s thinking about it, she also needs to spend her remaining days in the university and not at home. It would be another humiliation if she’d just attend on the graduation day which can be very embarrassing yet once again.“You think so? Then why the hell this happened?”Xiao was snapped back to reality when she heard someone shout. Her mind processed its voice and she immediately took

Chapter 025
Chapter 025The only person that comes to Xiao’s mind, the only capable one, and the only she’s very sure that she could put her trust into, seems to be slipping away. It made her heart sink as she listened to his words. She couldn’t accept it but she has to, if it’s his choice.“Lady Xiao, I have thought about what you have said to me,” looking straight to her eyes, Mr. Wilson never looked away, as he continued his words, “You said you will freely let me go if I would want to.”“Yes, I did say that.”“Thank you so much, Lady Xiao. I have served you enough, my family served you enough, so I want to be away. Freely.”“If that’s what you want,” Xiao tried her best not to stop Mr. Wilson. She may be in need of help regarding her aunt, but if he wants to leave, she couldn’t do anything about that. That would only mean she’s a great pretender if she wou

Chapter 026
Chapter 026 It was yet another tiring day for Xiao as she has come to face the hardest challenge of balancing herself on the beam. She has to perform artistic actions while she would need not to fall down from the beam. It’s really almost impossible for her as she didn’t consider herself a professional gymnast. That’s why she has to outdo her previous records on this day which Mr. Jake had suggested because if it won’t happen today, the time would run out as they only have a month away for her most anticipated competition. Xiao sighed heavily before she closed her eyes. She inhaled and exhaled in order to calm and to not make herself be dead due to severe nervousness. The fact that she’s also anxious at the moment, makes it even harder for her. As she opened her eyes, she started running towards the beam and did a forward front flip as she landed on its solid top. She started moving on the balance beam; her legs move one after another, resulting a smooth, flu

Chapter 027
Chapter 027Xiao was snapped back to reality as soon as she heard Mr. Wilson’s voice calling out her name for the nth time. The lad did not have any idea how many times he called for her, “You seemed to be so in deep thoughts, Lady Xiao.”“I just remembered something. Sorry if I was so out of my mind,” she even waved a smile on her face just to remove the awkwardness between them, “by the way, where’s coach?” she asked when she noticed Mr. Jake was longer standing beside her.“He excused himself for a while. I think he went outside as he received a call.”“Oh I see. I didn’t notice that.”“As I said, you were so in deep thoughts.”I was just reminiscing what happened yesterday, Mr. Wilson, you were such a cry-baby, Xiad said at the back of her mind, almost spitting them out externally. Good thing, her thoughts had remained only within her. She
