"Bri, I am really sorry," Kez opened on the other line. “You know I can not leave this pile of paperwork. I will even work overtime later just to finish it. I am really chasing the deadline for submission of my paper works. This week is so stressful for me!” she added.It was five o'clock in the afternoon and I was planning to go home but I chose to hang out in the office for a while to call my two friends. I still have a few people with me because some of them are working overtime.I invite Reign and Kez to come to Rocca tonight.I called Kez first but it seemed vague that she would go because she said she had piles of paperwork that she needed to finish. The other day she told me she was busy this week. She always complains but she still does. I understand her because I know how hard it is to pile up paper works because that's how I work now. Especially when the deadline is near, rushing is really what you do. You have no choice but to do that.We have also graduated for almost two
I felt my head ache when I opened my eyes. The weight of my head and I was really dizzy. I also can not explain why I am nauseous.I even frowned because the sunlight from the glass window on the side of my bed hit my eyes. I could do nothing but wake up."Oh no!" I rubbed my forehead as I realized what time it was. I did not set my alarm so I forgot I had to wake up early.I looked at my wall clock, reason to scold me again. I am late for work! Dad was probably looking for me in my office. He would scold me when he found out I got drunk last night and I woke up late. There's a high chance he won't let me go to Rocca Bar next time.Even if I wanted to get up, I could not because the headache I am feeling right now is holding me back, it’s probably a hangover. I remember what happened last night. I was drinking too much. I could not control myself. I lost my sanity last night. I made a mess!What I don't remember is how did I get home last night?Was I able to drive drunk? Impossible!
"Hey, Keziah! Just wait…" I shouted loudly to stop her from coming out of the classroom door. "I said, wait for me!"We had just finished class on a major subject and almost all of my classmates were leaving. Keziah, my friend, was leading the way. When we're talking about going home, she is the top one. She will quickly get her bag and leave the room. It seems like there was no friend to wait for.I grabbed my charger and my cell phone plugged into the extension on the side where I was seated. It's really good and I'm sitting here next to the outlet so I can charge secretly. I didn't waste any more time putting the charger in my bag. I ran out while holding my charger and cell phone.I caught Keziah outside the door while leaning against the wall. It's good and he's still kind enough to wait for me. I thought she went home already."What the—! Can you hide the charger you're holding? Our professor might notice you, and then you'll find out you're charging in the classroom," she said,
I was drowsy when I stepped out of my soft bed. If my cellphone hadn't just rang because I set an alarm in my 2-drawer dresser next to the bed, I wouldn't have woken up. I had to hear it three more times before I was fully awake.I was still drowsy after sleeping for 9 hours.I immediately went to my room's bathroom and showered. My uniform was ready, so I quickly dressed and examined myself in the full-length mirror in front of my bed. I also curled the tips of my naturally curly hair. I also use light make-up to enhance my natural beauty.I was holding onto my mobile phone before going. I read the flood of messages from the men with whom I flirted last week.Why are they still contacting me after I've already ghosted them?"Why should I feel guilty?" I asked after turning off my phone. "I know they'll ghost me too; I was just doing it early."Because our school uniform had no pockets, I put it in my backpack. The gray high waist pleated skirt is slightly above the knee and has a yel
"So, what is it? I know you're an expert in flirting, but don't you think it's too fast? You only met him yesterday, like hello? You should be on getting to know each other first before it will level up."Keziah doesn't stop asking me questions, but I still don't answer those. I just remained silent as I walked until we could get inside the classroom, she still followed me and didn’t stop."So? What should I do? I'll pretend that I'm hard to get? Oh come on, Kez, I can't find it in my vocabulary. Besides, I'm just being an advanced thinker. That's where we're going too." I reluctantly put my bag on the chair.She also sat down next to me. "Oh, that's what you're not sure about. What if he's already committed to someone?"I turned to her and shot her an evil look."Kez!" She pissed me off. I was nervous because what she said might come true. "Take it back, hey!"She just laughed at me.Isn't she going to take back what she said?"I hope Sir Taxation has a girlfriend, and I hope he gets
I excitedly picked up my cellphone on the bed and immediately opened the messages of Keziah and Reign. I was so nervous yesterday, it took me until night to float because of the excitement that Caleb gave after he got on board pretending to be my boyfriend just to escape the person I was hosting. That's why I couldn't talk to my two friends.I immediately opened the group chat of the three of us. They had messages last night and I didn't hesitate to backread. Aside from the fact that I'm lazy, I know that the two of them are talking about their crushes again.I don't know what's up to them. Out of the many listed on their crush list, none of them has passed on their standards to become their boyfriend. I'm planning to do a seminar for the two of them. Maybe it might help. You know, I wanted them to enter into a relationship so that they will stop teasing me with other boys.I started a new topic.Brittany Sarmiento:"Omg! Guess what?"I saw Keziah immediately typing it well right away
“Hi! Good Morning,” I greeted him as he entered the dining area.As usual, he still ignored me. He just passed me by and didn’t even close my eyes. He went straight to the kitchen to get Aunt Elisha the key to the new car that Dad had bought the other day. That's why Caleb is here on Saturday. He accompanied Dad to purchase the royal blue 2021 Jaguar XF that Caleb was going to use to pick me up. The car that Uncle Dante and I used was old, so Dad decided to buy a new one.Dad left early so I had breakfast alone. Aunt Elisha didn't want to join me because she wasn't hungry yet.I turned my back when I heard the kitchen door open. It spat out the cold and rugged Caleb. Their Maroon Engineering uniform is perfectly fitted for him. The cleanliness of her look that he was wearing. You wouldn't think he was a driver because of his good looks."Are you done?" he asked as he stopped in front of me and glanced at the food in front of me.I nodded. "Yes.""Then, let's go."Instead of following
"I thought you couldn't come with me?" I asked while he’s driving.I looked out the window. It’s already 9:20 PM and many more people are hanging out. The others we passed were just waiting for a ride because maybe they just got out of work.There is no traffic at this time so it is not boring. I just remained silent and busy seeing the street lights outside the window.We were in Rocca in about 20 minutes. I also called Keziah and she said that Reign and I had been there before. It's not obvious that the two of them really just want to hang out there and not because they want to help me to enjoy and forget about my failure in the quiz. They wanted to flirt with some students who came from another University.“It’s my duty as your personal driver. I can’t help but take you and pick you up,” he replied coldly.I smiled. “Really? That's it? No malice or other reason why you're here? Don't be shy to admit. You, Caleb! You're having a crush on me, too, right?”I looked out the window and
