Chapter-126

Back to school


Jay-jay's POV


Very Wrong!
I feel like I'm going crazy, Or am I really going crazy?
It's annoying!
I don't understand what's happening to me. I accepted Yuri's offer
, I shouldn't have done that to Keifer.
As long as that---on New Year.
That animal is strong enough to make a fool of me. ANGRY! It's like the old days,
I'm still hesitant. Mud!
The worst part is, it almost happened. It really almost happened! The
Bataan almost fell. Damn it!
I don't have a face to show Yuri anymore. It's annoying! I'm worried about that,
oh my! My heart is beating faster. My face is getting hotter.
I looked at the ring on my finger. They want me to
wear it and never take it off.
That's why every time I see it, I feel like I'm cheating.
"Hey..." I whispered.
I got up from lying on the bed. Back to school, so
ast. I didn't even feel or enjoy the New Year celebration.
Because Keifer...
I went straight to the bathroom to take a shower and get ready.
I was a bit in a hurry, I didn't want to be late. When I came out, while getting dressed, I heard someone
talking just outside my room.
I knew it was Tita Gema and Kuya Angelo. I just didn't understand
why they had to talk right across from my room.
After getting ready, I went out, causing Kuya and Tita to stop.
"Good morning." I greeted them.
"Good morning too. Eat there." Tita said and smiled at me.
I didn't really look at or greet Kuya Angelo. I was already feeling bad
or him.
I went straight to the Dining. I caught up with Aries who was eating. As usual,
he was very serious again. When would he smile?
When he was with Ella.
While eating, I noticed Aries looking at me all the time and
as if he wanted to say something.
"Are you going to say something?" I asked him.
"You're the one who's going to say something to me." He replied and I looked at him in surprise.
"Huh?"
"What's your decision? You'll stay on that stupid section of yours?"
Here he is again. Can he get me to leave now? Of course,
Kuya wouldn't let me. My---so called---fiancé was with me in
that Section.
I didn't answer and just went back to eating. Aries was clearly annoyed
by what I did.
He stood up suddenly. "If you had listened to me, you wouldn't have been set up for
that engagement." He said and walked away.
I stopped. If I had followed him, would this have happened?
Would I have been tied to the wedding they arranged.
Honestly, I was getting tired of thinking about that fleeting engagement.
I finished my meal and immediately got ready. I walked and
headed straight outside. I noticed Aries' car in the garage.
I thought he had left!
I looked at the gate. Aries was there and seemed to be talking to someone.
I approached him and was a little surprised to see the person in front of him.
"Yuri..." I called out to him. "...W-why are you here?"
He still had his arms crossed while leaning on his car. He immediately
smiled at me and made his way over.
"I'm picking you up." He said.
He was about to approach me but Aries suddenly stopped me and hid
me behind him.
"He won't come with you... Go away." He ordered seriously.
"Your not the one who will decide here." Yuri replied to him.
"A-aries... It's okay. I-I want to talk to Yuri too." I said and
he looked at me.
He moved away from me and let me walk closer to Yuri.
He opened the door for me and helped me get in.
When the car door closed, he immediately got in. I saw
Aries looking at us as we drove away.
"So, have you and Angelo talked?" He asked.
I shook my head. "No... I don't want to talk to him yet."
"Sorry huh? I should have told you about it from the start. I don't want to
orce you, so I try to make an effort." He explained.
That's why he still knows something. That's it! Tsk!
I touched the ring on my finger.
"W-what are we going to tell our classmates?"
"I..." He took a deep breath. "...I already think about it. It's better
if we don't tell them for now."
I looked at him in surprise. "Why?"
"It's for the sake of our Section. There'll be trouble when
they find out. Especially now, all of them think Keifer has feelings
or you too."
Shooot!
Why did he mention that King of Snakes? It's annoying! There it is
again! I remembered what happened on New Year's again.
Traitor!
I looked out the window. I was embarrassed to face Yuri because
of what I was doing.
"What do you think?" He asked me.
"O-okay... You're right. "It might just get messy." Especially
when you find out what we did.
I don't know if I should tell him or what. But
this is so hard. It turns out I'm still fooling him.
I looked at the ring on my finger again. They can't
see it. They'll keep asking questions. Especially Ci-N.
I took off the necklace I was wearing. The one Poseidon gave me at the
Christmas party. I still don't know who
this necklace is from. But it's pretty, so I put it on.
I also took off my ring. I put the necklace in the hole
of the ring. I made it into a pendant and put the necklace back on properly
.
"Great idea..." Yuri commented and smiled at me.
I just smiled at him too. We were quiet on the trip. Thanks to the
traffic----that's until now, queenina! Let's get in----especially it was
awkward inside the car.
There was a time when I looked at him and he did the same to me. Smile
and that was it. We'll do it again even though we're really just
acting stupid.
"This is awkward." He said and laughed a little. "...You know what,
we don't need a career-in this engagement. We
can still treat each other the same way like before."
"Huh?"
"There's no pressure. Let's not think about that engagement when
we're together. Act the same Jay-jay that I know." He said and smiled
at me.
I smiled back. He was right. Why would we think so much
about that wedding? My brother is the only one who's stressed me out.
"You're right." I replied to him and immediately punched him in the arm.
"Aw! What is that for?!" He asked annoyed.
"You said act the same me that you know." I replied and threw
another punch.
"I was driving! We might have an accident!"
Oh yes, of course!
I lowered my fist. I saw him rubbing his arm. For
some reason I couldn't understand, we suddenly burst into laughter.
"You're so annoying... You beat me to it." He said.
"Because you are."
The loneliness has gone a bit. Even the pressure from
that fleeting engagement seems to have gone. I like it better like this.
Back to where we were before.
The car stopped in the school parking lot. After unbuckling my seatbelt,
I thought we were getting off but Yuri held my hand.
"I forgot something." He said.
I was surprised when he suddenly brought his face closer to mine and immediately
kissed me on the lips.
When he pulled away, he immediately smiled at me.
"No pressure at the engagement but that doesn't mean I'll hide my
eelings for you." He said and immediately got out of the car.
Bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye!
It took a while for my brain to function. I just scratched my head when
I noticed that Yuri was waiting for me to get out of the car.
I hurried to get out. While walking, I suddenly
stopped. It turns out that no one can see us.
"I'm just a-bye." I said goodbye to Yuri.
I didn't wait for him to say anything. I quickly walked to the
CR. I locked myself in one of the cubicles. I didn't care if
Freya and I were going to meet again.
Just like that!
I was so confused. When Yuri kissed me,
the deception I had done or was doing to him immediately came to my mind.
It was wrong. We were already engaged, right? Even if they said
it was just an arrangement. Oh well! I still agreed, I still accepted.
I also have an obligation to that engagement.
I need to correct that mistake. If I have to
leave Keifer, I will. He knows that
Yuri and I are getting married so he will probably understand.
I need to talk to him properly so that he will stop or
we can stop this.
Right! Right!
That's exactly what I'm going to do! I've already prepared myself and opened the
cubicle door.
I didn't open it for a second. I want to close it again. If I
see you again! The person you want to avoid. Oh no! In front of me!
I was still a little surprised but I immediately looked at him with a bad look. He
was still holding one of his hands on the cubicle wall.
"W-what are you doing here? This woman's CR!" I glared at him.
He suddenly smiled mischievously. "I don't care... No one can stop me."
He said and pushed me back into the cubicle.
Anaknang....
I just said that!
