QUINN’S POV
“You’re with a guy? Who?” I look at Hailee with that “what are you talking about?” face.
“Evander told us” I abruptly take back my looks from her when I heard that jerk’s name.
“Some old friend, Rhys” I responded. They did not bother me anymore because they also know that I will entertain any questions that they will ask me.
“Anyway, the foundation day of the university and there are a lot of activities. So, what do you guys plan to join?” Hailee asked.
“I’ll be joining the volleyball. I always love playing it” Ara said. That’s cool, she’s good at that but why she did not join last year?
“Are you an athlete?” Jai asked.
“Nope. We just play that for leisure and although I didn’t get proper training, I do play a lot and I know the court rules” she said. Very impressive of her.
“Nice. I’ll maybe join some indoor games like chess? Although it sounds very nerdy I know how to play i
QUINN’S POV “I heard there’s a new student here and take note he’s freaking hot! They say” Ara stated. “Who told you?” I asked. They are all surprised giving me that “WTF” reaction so I have to explain why I asked. “I thought that might be Rhys,” I told them until Ara’s eyes widen. “Is he the one you told us your old friend? Oh my gosh!!” she’s overreacting though and as we are walking to the classroom, they keep asking me about him and I don’t have the interest of speaking so they stop. As we are about to enter the room, there’s a commotion happening inside. What is happening? Is there a problem out here? “Quinn!” I heard a voice coming from the commotion and Rhys came out. When he’s already close to me I whispered to him about what he’s doing and he’s like the deaf who doesn’t care about my question and asked me instead with another question. “Can I sit with you? these girls are annoying” he wh
QUINN’S POVIt’s almost foundation day and everyone got very busy preparing for the day while I am here chilling my ass off. I don’t have anything to contribute anyway and besides the team, I’m in is done with all the things that are needed to do.“Quinn, would you like to come with me?” Hailee asked. We are on the same organization and we are both free now while Ara and Jai are having their training for the event that they are participating in.“Where?” I asked her.“Library?” and she’s not even sure with her answer. I didn’t bother to neglect her offer and we headed to the library instead. That’s the only quiet place around the campus and I badly want to stay there for a while.As we enter the library, Hailee seems anxious looking around like she’s looking for something.“Who’s you’re searching,” I aske
HAILEE’S POV“I’m just… not feeling well” I told Quinn. That was a lie. I am really not feeling well not because I am ick but because of what happened yesterday. I’ve been distracted the whole night and it really sucks how I’m overthinking.Quinn did not ask any questions after that. She has a strong sense and she must have understood that I am not yet ready to talk about it. We reached the university and as something happened. Quinn burst out at Evander when he called her Ms. Numb. She doesn’t usually react with those kinds of words but she did this time. She’s hot headed and she’s like this when she’s on her period.We all settled down and Dylan tried to talk to Quinn but she shut him off. If only I could tell him to stop chasing Quinn, I would. Dylan has a huge affection for Quinn, he told me yesterday.***FLASHBACK***Quinn told me
QUINN’S POV “Quinn!! Oh my gosh! Tell us what happened!” Ara is rushing to me. “Tell you what?” I casually asked. It’s too early for gossips and I don’t know any gossips anyway. “This!” she showed me the screen of her phone and it was yesterday with Evander when we are at the Ice cream parlor. “And what’s so intriguing about it?” I asked. “Come one! Why are you together?! I know you hated him, then what is this?” she continued to convince me to tell her what happened so I have no choice. Ara called Hailee and Jai to hear it from me. “I got leak yesterday. He saw it and let me borrow his jacket to cover it. He insisted to send me home but he brings me to an ice cream parlor because he said it can ease the dysmenorrhea. The end” I told them. “Oh my gosh! I couldn’t believe this! Is that for real? You go out with a guy?” Hailee exclaimed. I didn’t go out with a guy. It was a mere… okay, it’s
QUINN’S POV“Ms. Barclay what is your decision?” the principal asked. We are back again in discussing about this thing and now I don’t know what to f*cking say.“Silence means ye. Okay, you can go now. Goodluck”“What? No, I didn’t say yes!” I calmly protest when she made a decision by herself.“Ms. Barclay, you will know walk in the stage with a lot of students looking at you. You will just have to stand there and share your advocacy, that’s all” the principal reasoned out.Before I could speak, she did.“You can go back Ms. Barclay. The discussion is over” she said. I left her office with no choice. I can’t believe I’ll be doing things that is against my will. Great! what a good sh*t.“When are we going to make our advocacy?” I heard Evander spoke from behind. He’s following me and I don&rs
QUINN’S POV “Are you ready? You got this” Evander told me. We are walking upstairs to present our advocacy the other department are already done. I’m nervous, I must admit. This will be the first time I will be facing the crowd and speak on stage. Since yesterday Evander has been saying encouraging words. Although I am not used with it, I don’t really have to hear it from him but the initiation he had done, I appreciate it. We stepped on the podium and hold the mic. I took a deep sigh before speaking. “I am Quinn Amethyst Barclay, junior from *** department” I stated. “I am Evander Ludwing, junior from *** department” after he said that the crowd applauded and some are even cheering for him most particularly the girls. “To all students out there, fighting their silent battles, our advocacy “Hear to Help” is dedicated to you” and the cheers got louder when he started to speak. He really has a great influence and
HAILEE’S POV “How are you going to help me?” Dylan has been very persistent asking about it. I am still finding a way how do and whenever he asked, I feel pressured and… jealous. I know I look stupid that I supported him while I like him. I’m going to have a martyr award for this. “You really like her, do you?” I asked him even if I know he does. We are currently at the library. We don’t read books anyway, we’re here to talk. He’s been asking me about Quinn and he would tell me how interested he is with her. So far, I was able to take listening to him while I am secretly crashing down. “I know you will help me” he said and smiled. Those smiles that really charm me. Dylan. If you only knew how my heart is screaming right now to tell you that I am just here so why look for someone that doesn’t like you? “Yeah, I will help you don’t worry. Just give me time to find a good opportunity” I told him. He grins after I said that
QUINN’S POV“Please, get the hell out of my life,” I said while walking out he still keeps on following me.“I’m not going to stop until you talk to me,” he said.He walks in front of me spreading his arms to block me. I look at him sharply but he keeps his composure and speaks.“Why did you walk out,” he asked.“Because you’re disgusting” I simply replied attempted to pass through her but he was able to stop me.“I’ll come with you,” he said. I furiously look at him and speak.“Can you just stay out of my sight? Leave me alone? Can you do that?” I told him. I don’t anymore know how to get rid of him. He’s way too assertive to get rid of.“I’ll behave I promise” he replied.I think I couldn’t stop him from intriguing me and a waste of energy ha
