What About Love? Chapter 1
Jeyah's POVI was sitting alone in the school's cafeteria at that time when I heard a group of students laughing while teasing someone in the group. Everyone around in that place was looking at them, especially the girls. I landed my gaze on them since I heard someone speaking, "Guys, the group of Darren is here!",These guys were sitting opposite to each other at a table not far from me. And as I counted them, they are ten; five males and five females. Unintentionally, my gaze landed on someone who was sitting at the center. My eyes were locked on him as he was also staring at me. And oh my God! He is undeniably handsome. He has those deep and expressive blue-grey eyes and finely chiseled features that could make any woman go crazy over him. He was wearing a dark polo that was rolled up to his elbow.But to my surprise, he has similarities with Ryle. I felt the pain creeping gradually inside my heart when I remembered him. How could I ever forget my first love? I quickly set aside th
What About Love? Chapter 2
Darren's POVSince I went through the stages of puberty, I had this feeling of wanting to be adored by girls. And these expectations continued to run through until I went to college. This shallow craving to be the women's center of attraction was probably the reason why I refused to get into commitments and relationships. I have a lot of friends from all walks of life. But a serious girlfriend? I did not experience it on my first three years in college.I am a half-French and a half Filipino, but I was born and grew up in the Philippines, the reason why I can speak Tagalog fluently, but I only have a little knowledge of the French language. I was very loyal to UP Diliman because I studied in this institution since elementary. But when my family decided to move to my father's place, for some business matters, I left the Philippines and continued my college studies in France.My two years' stay in France, was quite boring because I need to focus on my studies, especially that my dad was
What About Love? Chapter 3
Darren's POVI told my friends about "Jewel" and like me, they were also interested to know her.But where on earth, could I ever find this woman? I don't know her face, not even her real name. Well, I only knew her age and some of her likes and dislikes. She did not tell me where she lives but she only said, she is currently schooling as a 4th-year college student at a certain university in Quezon. The same with me, because I am also in the 4th year. But what university she is going to? There are a lot of schools and universities here in Manila, so how could I find her?At school...My friends and I used to hang out during our vacant time in the school's cafeteria. So one time, we were having a food trip and while busy throwing jokes at one another, I spotted someone sitting alone in the corner. She was eating a burger, while busy reading something and I guessed it was a book. For the first time, someone caught my attention. I stared at her for a long time, because honestly, she is r
What About Love? Chapter 4
Jeyah's POVI went inside my room after having our dinner. And as usual, my brother was asking me why I came home late. He told me not to spend the night on the road, since I am a girl, and it's not safe for me to be alone at night time. He's right anyway. It's for my own good that's why he is so protective of me.I was sitting on the bed with my back leaning on the headboard while reviewing my lessons. And most of the time, when I'm studying, I used to turn off my phone to avoid any disturbance or interruption. After studying my lessons, I went to my music room to prepare myself for my live stream. Yes, I'm a streamer on three platforms. And if you want to ask what kind of streamer I am? Well, I am a singer. But no! I'm not a professional singer. I just want to sing because this is my passion. I'm not streaming to earn money, but just for some sort of relaxation. Starting from 8:30 in the evening until 9:30, I stream on the first platform, then from 9:30 to 10:30, on the second platf
What About Love? Chapter 5
Jeyah's POVI was sitting alone on one of the benches in the school oval when someone approached me. I was reading a psychology book while waiting for my next class."Jeyah Abby Arguello?", the woman called my name with a little rudeness in her voice. I looked at her, only to find out that it was Bridgette. The woman whom Darren introduced to me after the basketball tournament last time. She was wearing an off-shoulder crop top and black fitted jeans. She looked much taller because she was wearing a wedge sandal. She was wearing quite heavy make-up and a lever back earrings. She was sophisticated and it's obvious that she came from a rich family."Yes, If I'm not mistaken, you must be Bridgette", I responded softly."I want to make this direct to the point, Miss Arguello. I'm Darren's girlfriend. So stop messing around with my boyfriend. Don't ever dare. I warn you", Bridgette snapped out as she crossed her arms and smirked at me.I was shocked upon hearing it. I never thought she was
What About Love? Chapter 6
Darren's POVI was again visiting the audio live stream of "Jewel". And as always, I enjoyed listening to her songs. How I wished she would show me her face. How I wished I get to know where she is schooling. But how would I?I looked at my watch and it was already 1:30 in the morning. I was about to go to bed when I received a phone call from my Dad. I wondered why my father suddenly called me at this hour. I hurriedly reached for my phone and talked to him."Yes, dad. How are you?"My father responded in a harsh voice, and I guessed he was mad at me."I received information that you're interested in a certain girl in the university. Who is she? What kind of family does she have?", Dad asked me directly without any hesitation.I was stunned into silence because I was thinking who told him about it."In case, you have forgotten Darren, let me remind you that you are not allowed to get into a serious relationship while you are still schooling. Or if you want to get into commitments the
What About Love? Chapter 7
Jeyah's POVI went home with mixed emotions. I still couldn't believe I'm now part of Darren's group. I shook my head and sighed deeply as I flipped the doorknob of the entry door."Hi, sweetie, I'm glad you're here. But you look so upset. Is there anything wrong?", my brother Andre asked curiously. He was at the sala, sitting in a figure four-leg-clamp while leaning his back on the sofa bed. I approached him and gave him a hug. I put my things down and sat beside him."Are you okay, sweetie? What's that serious face?", he asked again.I laid my head on his shoulder and told him, it's just nothing. But my brother knows me very well, so even if I say, I'm fine, he would never be convinced because he really knows when I'm okay and when I'm not."C'mon, tell me. What happened?"I lowered my head because I am still hesitant to tell him what happened in school. He lifted my chin and told me to look at him. My brother is always like that. He would never stop if he wants to know something."
What About Love? Chapter 8
Darren's POVI went home quite not feeling well. I really felt bad about what happened the whole day. It all started with my dad's call, then Bridgette's stupid kiss, and Jeyah's acceptance as a new member of our group. Tssk...As soon as I went inside my room, I slumped down on the soft mattress and focused my eyes on the ceiling. I heaved a deep sigh and stood up to take a hot shower for my muscles to be relaxed and for me to get enough sleep. I closed my eyes as I feel the warm water dripping into my skin. But damn! Can't take her out of my mind. No! the other side of my brain scoffed. Jeyah is already a member of our group, so I need to suppress this feeling I have for her. I pressed my hands against the wall as her vision kept on lingering in my mind. Her pink lips, smooth and rosy cheeks, and those dark expressive eyes made me lost for quite some time. Her innocent and cute smile is indeed captivating that I will never get tired of staring at it. I wanted to feel her petite and
