Blackmail Again?

They came back to the school field where their other classmates were still in the middle of P.E. class. But luckily, both of their teacher didn't notice them gone for a while. They heave a deep sigh of relief when Molly is not on their sight anymore. Yesterday is the scene they don't want to repeat and just to imagine it happen again gives shivers down their spine. They've learned a great lesson not to be caught with those evil eyes of an innocent, beautiful woman named Mollyana Auclair or else hell will open up.

"Why are the two of you together?" Both of them jump in shock when someone talk behind.

They turn their back in nervous but only to see Mirko with a two bottles in his hand. He has this confuse smile as both eyes keep going back and forth to them.

"You're a couple for real? Well, if I remember it, Raven didn't deny it even if how many times I asked him." He gives a light laugh.

"H-huh? I think there's some misunderstanding here. We're not in a rel—" she jolted out when he wraps his arm around her.

"She's my girlfriend."

Mirko and Kinrue's jaw almost drop when those words came out of his mouth. She looks at him with a question look but he answer by pressing hard to her shoulder as if to give a sign. The moment she looks back in Mirko's direction, she notices Molly walking towards them. Her instinct makes her step back and ready to escape if there's an unfortunate thing happen again.

"I heard it loud and clear, my dear brother, you seem to learn your lesson." Molly said with a playful smile as she wrap right arms around Mirko, who seem shock to see her as well.

"Sis Molly, I didn't know you're here." Mirko utter.

"You asked a question on a right time, Mirko. I'm here to see the outcome of my punishment to them, but it looks good so far." She walks towards them and stops in front.

Kinrue looks down, tries to avoid her gaze. "B-boss, y-you know..."

"We're fine now Molly, we talk a lot yesterday and reflect on what we act." Raven said.

"You better do. Anyway, I hire you as a part-timer on my coffee shop too so, both of you come on time. I'll be waiting there." She gives a sinister smile. "If you didn't show up, let's meet in hell again. Think about it, my adorable juniors. See you later."

They watch her walk away, but their fist clench tight in annoyance. As soon as she vanishes on their line of sight, they push each other and give a death glare.

"Argh! It's your damn fault why I need to be in her sight. If you didn't make a scene, then this... Everything of this didn't happen," Raven shouts in anger that catches other students' attention.

"Wow, such a grand act. You're the one who makes a scene first. If you didn't come, my life will be the same and in peace, but the moment you interrupted my confession... You damned ruin everything," she shouted back.

"H-hey, you're gaining a lot of attention..." Mirko try to stop the tension between but they didn't even bother to listen.

"Confession? You're a shameless to call it a confession. Are you into a man who has a girlfriend? You love to ruin other relationship now because you're a die hard hopeless romantic? Or else you're just a fucking desperate to catch any man's attention?"

Those words make her speechless. Without knowing it, her body move on its own to slap him hard. She heard a gasp around them, even felt a ton of a pair of eyes in their direction. Her eyes even feel hot as the tears fall down without stopping. They heard a footstep comes towards them and saw Mr. Paco and Mr. Miller separate the two who still glaring at each other.

"What do you think you're doing? Do you want us to bring you to the guidance office?" Mr. Paco said.

"Who started this? Can anyone tell us whose fault is this?" Mr. Miller asked the other student, but no one answer. "No one wants to answer? How about you Mr. Yuzon? You're the one near them."

Mirko flinches, turns his look to them. "S-Sir, I-I..."

"It's all my fault. I'll go on my own."

"K-Kinrue..." Ashley, who came with Camie, try to stop her but she brush her hand away and walk away.

"I'll go with Ms. Cienfuegos so, continue what we are doing." Mr. Paco said so, they all go back.

It's already dark outside when she came in the coffee shop. There are many customer around and on the counter her co-worker, Lia, does all the work alone. She sign her to go inside the office. Even though she doesn't want to see either the two, she knows how impossible it is to hide from them. She heaves a deep sigh and walks towards Molly's Office.

The moment she came, both Molly and Raven seated on the sofa. Molly with a cross leg and a teacup in her hand while Raven is busy on his phone. She cleared her voice to catch their attention. It made them look in the front door.

"Kinrue, you came on time. Please, sit down." Molly said.

She look to her direction then turns to where Raven but he ignores her presence. After what happened in the school field earlier, she made sure not to run with him anymore. She ignores both Camie and Ashley to be alone, think a long time, but in the end this is what she decides.

"I came here to clear everything to you, Boss," she said, get an envelope inside and give it to her.

"W-what is this?"

"It's a resignation letter boss, besides I want to clear something to you. Your brother and I are not in a relationship. It's true that we didn't know each other so," she sigh. "Please, don't involve him in me anymore. Thank you for everything."

"W-wait Kinrue..."

"Tsk. I hate the hell out of him. He has the worst personality ever. How I wish he drop dead now."

Raven slam his phone on the table and look at her with brows frown but she didn't flinch—glare at him as well. The tension between those simple glares lingers inside the room. Even Molly can't stop looking back and forth at them.

"You have nothing but an empty head, right?" He broke the silence.

"It's better to have an empty head than a boastful shit head." She crosses her arm.

"Tsk. You're hopeless."

"Argh! You, I want to zip your mouth. Whatever words will come out on it is a real annoyance for me."

They startle when Molly slams both hands on the table. Her face bows down, eyes in a furious look and lips form a sinister smirk. The two flinch and move back. It gives them the same feel.

"I guess the two of you should date."

"W-what? /W-what?" both of them shout in surprise.

"Boss, I told you there's nothing going on between us. Believe me, can't you?"

"I believe the two of you are like in a cat and dog relationship, but you'll still love each other."

"There's no way, / No way!"

"Okay, this is the prize coupon on the last confession day. Show me a picture of you together or else I'll tell both mom and dad about the two of you." She put a two coupon on the top of the table. "Think about it. I'll go ahead."

They follow her by look but she walk pass by Kinrue and left the room without words. It took a few seconds before her words hits them. They turn back to cruel reality and run after her in instinct.

She's almost in the entrance but Kinrue came first and grab her right hand with a desperate look while on the other side is Raven, both eyes in shock. They both gulp.

"B-boss, y-you're kidding, right? I-I told you the facts so,"

"Molly, this is not funny anymore. Can't you just let this off? Don't tell either of the two."

Kinrue and Raven look at her with hopeful puppy eyes. She turns back and forth to those two and looks outside, where her eyes glimmer.

"Right on time. Mom and Dad are on the way here. I think they'd received my text before. Shall I introdu—"

They look outside the coffee shop. Raven eyes almost pop out when he saw his parent walks towards the shop. His dad still wears a black suit while her mom is in a white dress with black stilettos. He gulps and turns to Molly, who's about to go outside.

"Fine. We're going on a date and fix this. Do you hear me? I'll date her, okay?" He utter with desperation.

"W-what? Why are you deciding on your own? Am I a statue here? Why would I date some shitty head like you? Dream o—"

"Geez. You didn't know how to shut your mouth. Let's talk about this on our own. We'll be leaving now." He said. "Don't tell a single thing to them." He glare to his sister but she just gives a wide smile.

Without words, he drag Kinrue on the back door of the coffee shop to not run to his parent. Even though she tried hard to remove his grip, she can't do it until they go inside a taxi.
