I cover my head with the pillow; at least they're all asleep, even if it's only a few hours, while I?I haven't been able to close my eyes until now; don't they pity me? Why is it so noisy?I threw down my pillow and straightened my body. The three girls who had controlled my room were still sobbing and sharing sad stories when Clarisa was kidnapped.It's not that I'm not sad or unable to sympathize with the problem; it's just that I'm really sleepy right now."Hey, you can continue this drama at Tiana's or Via's house! Look at my eye bags! I really need enough rest now!" I exclaimed, annoyed.The three girls looked at me; they then cleaned my bed and immediately took Clarisa away from my room.Look at that! They didn't even thank me.And they call us friends? Are they kidding?After they left, I immediately closed my bedroom door and locked it.To hell with school, I have to close my eyes now.***When I woke up from my sleep, I winced in confusion to see a place that was clearly not
I dropped the paper bag I was carrying when I saw who was in front of me.Marko? Why is he so different?Lizbeth screamed for me; the girl then ran over to me and jumped into my arms."William is here! The three of us can play!" Lizbeth exclaimed happily.I put Lizbeth down and walked slowly to meet Marko. To be honest, I almost couldn't believe my eyes. Marko, who usually looks like a bad boy, is now dressed neatly like a good boy.This is very strange."Lizbeth, please help the others prepare food," Marko asked Lizbeth.The little girl nodded cheerfully, said goodbye to me, and then walked quickly into the orphanage."What are you doing here?" Marko snapped."I brought some vitamins." I lifted the paper bag I brought, showing it to Marko."Don't take too long; get out of here quickly!" exclaimed Marko quietly.I shook my head weakly. I usually come at this time and come home at night. Why is Marko controlling me now?"I'll be back when it's time to go home!" After saying that, I got
That afternoon, I got ready to go to the park. Kenan and I had promised to meet at the park in the city center."You're leaving, honey?" asked Dad while noticing my beautiful appearance."Yeah. I have a promise with Kenan, Dad," I answered."Kenan? Why don't you hang out with Steve?" Dad asked."Come on!"I rushed to go. After walking a little towards the main road, I stopped a taxi that happened to pass by."I finally arrived," I said.I sat on a park bench, thinking about a birthday present for Daddy. Since my mom died, I only have Daddy; he is everything to me."Kei!"I turned toward the source of the sound. It turned out that Kenan was already standing there, waving his hand at me. I was so happy to see him while I waved back his hand. Recently, my relationship with Kenan has gotten closer. Yeah, although he still likes to hide things.Kenan seemed to sit beside me, smiling. "Sorry, a little late. I had to queue a little while buying gas.""It's okay. I can understand. Besides, yo
The next day, exactly at noon after school, I decided to meet Kenan at his school. Even though we went to different schools, the distance between our schools was not too far."Kenan must be pleased with the appearance. This morning, I made quite a few sandwiches. Kenan likes sandwiches. " I'm looking at the plastic container where there were several sandwiches in it.With enough fast steps, I can soon arrive at a shop across from Kenan's school. I can't wait to see him.When I was about to step toward Kenan's school, I was stunned by the footsteps but I was able to continue. At this time, I saw Kenan standing near the school gate and getting ready to accompany a girl on his motorcycle.The girl wore the same uniform as Kenan. That means they are in the same school. It's only natural that they could get that close.Who is that girl? Why does Kenan seem so familiar with that girl? I'm starting to think too far ahead. I cannot imagine what is in my mind coming true. I've always liked Ken
I gaped in disbelief at what had happened to our living room.OK, I know it's my birthday, but balloons and a big cake? Did he forget that I no longer celebrated birthdays many years ago?"What is this?" I asked Dad, who was busy preparing some dishes for the table."I have to attend an important meeting out of town; I'm sorry for not being able to celebrate your birthday. I prepared this so you can celebrate it with your friends," Dad said as he came closer to me.Dad smiled broadly before finally hugging me tightly."I have missed a lot, not realizing that you are already a very beautiful girl! If your mom were alive, she would be very jealous because you are much prettier than her!" Dad looked at me with a gentle gaze.I can't hide my smile. I'm pleased to hear it. I know my mom is very pretty, so it's nice to hear Dad compliment me like that.But the thing is if I have a friend I can invite,Dad took a card out of his wallet and gave it to me."Gift," Dad said with a warm smile."
For the umpteenth time, I looked back to make sure. I don't know if it's just me or if someone is following me. I glance at the watch that sits nicely on my wrist. Now, it's already ten o'clock in the evening, and the streets in our housing complex are quiet.I just came back from the convenience store because I thought it was quite close, so I walked alone. Who would have thought that someone would follow me?I took my cell phone and turned on the front camera, acting as if I was taking a selfie. And sure enough, though briefly, I saw the shadow of a guy behind me. He hid behind the fence of the house, not far behind.My reflexes run as fast as possible so that I can get home quickly, or at least, I can quickly find anyone to ask for help in case the stalker has bad intentions for me."Hey!" exclaimed Steve, who was standing in front of the gate of my house.I ran as fast as I could to get closer to him."Why run? Something happened?" shrieked Steve worriedly."It seems someone is fo
I jumped out of bed and ran outside. My window glass was shattered, and a stone covered in blood lay not far from the window.Was I just being terrorized?This is already the third time I've gotten something as terrible as this. The first one was the worst; someone sent a package containing a bloodied chicken to my house. Luckily, my dad wasn't home at the time, or he would have been really worried.And secondly, someone sent rotten fruit to me.It looks like this housing complex is not as safe as I imagined.I rushed to Dad's room to check the CCTV. It was clear from there that a black van stopped in front of the house's gate. Several men dressed in all black then threw the big rock very hard toward the house.Could it be the Aster Gang that hired the men? Or... Yufi Gang?This is very annoying. How am I supposed to explain to Dad about these window panes?How should I react to it?The phone rang just as I was about to go to my room. Kenan's name appeared on the screen, and it confus
I stopped when I saw the sound of someone crying under the stairs. Although, to be honest, I was scared, I dared myself to make sure what sound I heardA girl hid under the stairs while sitting and hugging her knees. The girl hid her face and held herself so that her voice would not be heard.It's useless; holding back her tears isn't that easy, as evidenced by my being able to easily find her."Are you alright?" I asked slowly.The girl started to stop crying and turned slowly towards me. And... how surprised I was when I saw the girl's pretty face, which was now full of Henna streaks. There's no need to ask to know who did this because I'm pretty sure this is all Lenny's doing."If you don't change, my life will be fine; they won't make me a substitute for you! You and your friends have ruined my life!" The girl cried, then ran away from me.I wouldn't blame her for thinking that way. It's only natural that she would be annoyed at me. I had no other choice. I want to live my life li
