Chapter: Chapter Fifty-FiveValentineI don't know what to do. Dominic just said it, he doesn't love me and that everything was planned from the very start. I rushed going down the stage not knowing where to go and how to get out of here but as soon as I reached the dance floor filled with a lot of speechless people, they all paved a narrow space for me in the middle. It's like when Moises parted the sea with his wooden staff. I'm already humiliated to the stars, and the agony is already owning the throne inside me, so there's no point in trying to have pride or even dignity. Everything is pointless now.

Chapter: Chapter Fifty-FourDominic"So it's true then?" Valentine’s eyes were like sharp spears piercing straight at me. I gave him a "what's true" expression still refusing to admit some things."Is this true?" Valentine turned his attention to Yhannie who just closed her eyes, refusing to say something but even without saying anything Valentine understood immediately."What the fuck Dominic. You really did play me, huh." He fished

Chapter: Chapter Fifty-ThreeValentine"May I take this dance?" I struggled a little bit to position myself in order to ask Dominic properly to the first dance that he will remember for the rest of his life. The handcuff limited the way I moved, but in the end, I managed to successfully ask him as if I’m a gentleman asking a dignified lady for a dance at a royal ball."Oui" He replied, eventually taking my hand. We nervously inched our way towards the dance floor where everyone can see us.Tale

Chapter: Chapter Fifty-TwoDominicSomeone came quick as fuck to where I was seated, that is unfortunately right next to Valentine and simultaneously cuffed my hand to his. It left me utterly frozen for a moment. My mind is slowly trying to process what had just happened. I didn't even have the chance to even say something about it. It happened really fast like a swift bird just flew by."Well, I guess we will be prison-mates for the rest of the night" I heard Valentine jokingly utter.

Chapter: Chapter Fifty-OneDominicI stared hopeless and crestfallen up above the silky sky as Valentine drove the car. Mr. Sun is about to sink in an hour just as much as my life is about to be ruined in a few hours. I don't know what to do anymore, my mind is just basically empty with ideas. It seemed more like a barren land unable to support life. The past few days had been the greatest and the happiest moment I've ever been in my life, and if things go distressingly bad tonight, then I can say this is the peak of my high school love life. I deadly want to quit this shit, and I'm stupidly stressed. I really thought I knew what I was going into like the back of my hands, but it turns out that I

Chapter: Chapter FiftyValentineI woke up exceptionally early the next day since I promised Aunt Katya that I'll be temporarily taking the job of driving Dominic to school, and of course, I had to take the little sister as well. Collene really liked me as well; I can tell that by how much of a talker she is whenever I'm around. I think she's aware of the little thing going on between her brother and me. She keeps on implying little details, which Dominic quickly squashes every time.I was about to park the car when I saw Yhannie rushing towards us, and tha

Chapter: Chapter EightValentineThe day had quickly bled into nightfall, and I found myself drinking at an acoustic bar with all of my friends gathered up. I am astonished to see all three of us here tonight when we couldn't even make a decent plan to meet up and have some bro time without someone cancelling out the last minute. This time, there is no plan made. I totally want to have a drink and have some time to burn all of this stress that I'm getting from work. I just texted both Aldrin and Jack last minute. Whoever shows up, I'll deal with it and, apparently, they both showed up. Many things had changed between the three of us except that we are still tight, but most of it, life had just forced us to evolve. Aldrin is already married and has two children, while Jack is doing a lot of travelling with her girlfriend.“How was it going with the restaurant?” Playing with the beer cap, Aldrin began opening the floor of conversation.

Chapter: Chapter SevenDominic"I don't want to go home" I screamed.The day had arrived, and I hated that it had to swoop in so fast that I did not even have at least a small amount of time to prepare for it. I hated it so much that I actually wished to get tangled into an unfortunate tragic accident yesterday and just die instantly, so I'd never live to see this day come and take me back to a place where I don't want to be but, apparently, that did not happen so here I am today, alive and kicking, absolutely scared of heading back home. And although, I've missed my mom and her "I'm not a regular mom, I'm a cool mom" shenanigans, and my little sister with her rude ass tongue who by the way has quickly transformed into a spitting image of my mom who is probably swooning over Shawn Mendes and those popular Korean boy bands at this moment, but I don't really want to go home just yet. Singapore saw me cry under the shower, it caught me bec

Chapter: Chapter SixYhannieI will never define my final days in high school to be the best days of my high school life. Clearly, it's an utter fiasco that almost emotionally broke every one that is involved. If there is someone pleased and satisfied with their own final days to the point where they define it to be the best chapters of their high school journey, that would totally be Valerie and that little shit club that she created. After that inevitable heartbreaking night at the Valentine's Ball, there were a lot of lines drawn in the sand, in fact, the lines were drawn pretty visibly, and ultimately, in a day, a wall was built providing unwanted divisions. Dominic made his mind to cut off everything that is between us completely, friendship no more, telepathy gone, connection cut. He strictly stopped talking to me, not even be alone in a room with me, and would only bat a hateful eye-roll on me whenever our paths cross in the hallway or at the field. As his best friend, I trie

Chapter: Chapter FiveVincentEven though my apartment is located in a precise area where mushrooms of buildings kept on popping out of nowhere, the view over my veranda is still splendid in the bright light of the sun. I've imagined this day. Actually, the right term for it is that I feared that this day would eventually happen to me, and now here I am in mope mood. I just woke up from a terrible nightmare that narrowly crippled my hunger for a good night rest and this morning, no matter how beautiful it is, isn't certainly one of the best mornings I've had with Keiran. It's been a month since we ended things and yet my visual memory is still highly attached to all of the magical things that happened between us.Six years.I didn't know how the fuck we lasted that long, but we actually did. It is no doubt that it was the best six years of my life. We created millions of memories together, we bathed together, we cooked together, we partied and got wasted t

Chapter: Chapter FourDominic"Oh, wow. Nice car!" I huffed in awe as I laid eyes on the red Maserati waiting for us just only because it looked slick and shiny as if it just bathed in glossy paint or something. "So, where are we heading to?" I asked once we both got inside."Do you want to meet a special friend of mine?" He responds with a very conniving smile, and if I am reading him correctly, this is going to be a hell of a night."Not really," I replied."Oh come on, man, this is going to be fun.""I mean I know how to put the F in fun so yeah, let's hit the road then!" I swallowed.Jonathan drove me to a place that I positively reckon to be his foreshadowed predatorial abode, and tonight, I am going to be his poor and helpless prey. The parking lot at his building is merely dark and quiet enough for me to make some advances to him. I hope that this man isn't married to someone else. He looks and smells more like a bachelor to me
