I STUDIED HARD for the incoming test - obviously because I do not want to be someone else's dog...     Really?     My brain immediately reacted after that thought. Fine! I plan on winning to have Ibarra for myself for a month! Yes! That's what keeps me going. I kept studying day and night to ace the test and now, the day has finally come where I can assess my brain.     "Well, someone seems excited for the exam." Mirajane commented when she reached my seat. It was still early so she had time to visit me before she comes back to her own room. She’s been visiting me here so my classmate knows her already.     I placed my reviewer down and she laughed at me as soon as she saw my face.     "Girl! Did you even sleep?"     I sighed and shut my eyes. "No. I don't

PRESENT TIMES     “WHAT? WHY DIDN’T you snatch the umbrella back?” Nikki looked at me pissed. She even hit the table with her hand. “Oh gosh! Don’t tell me it’s because you’re so in love with him?”     I honestly wanted to answer back but I couldn’t lie about the fact that I really am… errr ‘was’ so crazy about him when I was younger.     “Well, accepting the deal that she will become a dog by someone… isn’t that a clear sign that she was willing to become submissive? Why do women become submissive? One, they are abused. Second, they are in love, or third, they are just clearly crazy.” Bianca stared at me – giving me the right to choose.     I exasperatedly sighed. “It doesn’t matter anymore! That’s all in the past. And I already told you about our thing. Isn’t that what you were after?” &nb

REBECCA’S POV     I woke up and immediately sat down. Talking to my boss and re-reading my diary was giving me different kind of emotions. Emotions that were too strong that I even dreamt of him for the second time. After all these years, I thought I was doing well. I thought I was slowly moving on but I end up being sucked into my bitter sweet past after seeing Ibarra.     Or was it also my fault for bringing him up during my interview?     I stood up and walked towards my full-length mirror. I slowly studied my physique and I could tell how much different I am now from when I was in high school. I am more confident and definitely more gorgeous than before.     “I wonder what he thinks of me now that I have changed a lot?” I asked in a whisper while looking straight into my eyes. Blooming into this

THE PAST (Different Memory) A loud slap echoed the place. Slowly the pain crawled and spread on my cheek and I tasted blood in my mouth. Mitchell’s slap hit me hard. I even thought that my head would roll off! No matter how much I want to escape this hell hole, I cannot do anything since there were two guys holding me on each side. Mitchell was furious when I reported her and her two friends for locking me in the Science Lab. They were suspended for a week and just when she got back, she immediately ordered these two ugly guys to take me and bring me in this dark and deserted alley. No one goes here much, since it was reported that a lot of bad men lurking around here. “You bitch! You think you can escape me huh?” She angrily snatched my hair and forced me to look at her. “You must have enjoyed your week since there was no one making it hard for you!” “You could have stayed silent.” Marian hissed and also pulled my hair that made me grunt. Marian was the one who was holding the ke

“AHHHH FUDGE!” A short high-pitched squeal came out from my mount when I fell from my bed. It was an inevitable fall. I grunted as I slowly sat down – gently massaging my hurt elbow. I didn’t realize that I immediately went into a deep slumber last night. But it was a good thing… I finally woke up from that nightmare. Was it really just a nightmare? I wouldn't really call Ibarra's kiss a 'nightmare' but the whole experience was indeed petrifying to any teenage girl. I still couldn't believe that I've been through that. I’ve been hospitalized for days and traumatized by what happened. It was a good thing that my friends never left me. Everyone knows how much I wanted to escape being with Judiel but I truly appreciated him during that moment. I could say that that was the time when we were able to be more comfortable with each other… even him with Mirajane. I stood up and brushed the dust that probably stuck on my shorts. I went out of my room and prepared myself a coffee. It was a s
