CHAPTER 14

"Lucia." said in a small tone. All my visions are dark and blur I can't yet recognize who's calling me.

"Hmmm." a whispered moan, slowly I lifted my head and wipe both eyes to see it clear who's in front of me.

It took 10 seconds before my eyes see his vision. His standing in front of me manly and his two hands were inside his pocket.

"You're still here, it's already past 6 pm." He smirked.

If I would be given a chance to become one of those superheroes who move fast like a lightning. No doubt they'll give me one slot. Quickly, I roam my eyes in the whole library and saw nothing aside from the two of us.

I run fast as I can so I wouldn't saw his manly statue again. When I reach the parking lot it's like one blink of my eye and I'm now inside in my car.

"Idiot Lucia! idiot!" I screamed in the car while facepalming. It took a few seconds before I start the car and drove away from the campus.

Never been saw that man before.

Never been encountered him for the past months I've been studying in the library or even in the hallway. My phone beeped faster like it was gone for a long time and nowhere to be found.

"Evening mom." I greeted.

"Where were you Lucia!?" she screamed in anger.

"Hey, mom chill." I tried to calm her blood pressure hahaha.

"Then where are you!" mom screamed in the other line. I chuckled because she's too overacting.

"First of all, I'm fine and lastly I fell asleep in the library while reading books. Someone called me because I was still sleeping then woke up late." I explained.

I heard her sighed by that I know she felt relieved in her chest. I continue driving while talking to mommy, I ask her if Ely was awake, then she said Ely was still asleep.

After our talk, I hang up the call and park my car in the parking lot. Before I went out of the car, I fix my hair and my things before coming out in the car.

NARRATOR'S POV

Lucia began to walk through the dark hallway of the parking lot. She was busy reading something on her phone and she didn't bother her visions on the other sides of the parking lot.

When she reached the elevator. There's no hesitation and she went inside and click the floor she'll be going.

"Good evening ma'am." the babysitter greeted her when it notices that it was her.

"Good evening also, is baby Ely still sleeping?" she then asked the girl while getting something in her bag.

Lucia gives the salary to the babysitter before they continue walking away. Walking through the glass doors she noticed that all the lights were dimmed.

There are no flashes to other sides of the penthouse. Leaving it to her imagination she continued walking after a few seconds Lucia reach her unit.

"I'm here," she said to inform her parents that she arrived safely.

Her dad went out to his library to see if it was her. Lucia kissed her father's cheeks before leaving and went inside to his room.

She put her bags and books on the sofa and saw her sister sleeping beside Ely's body. Lucia went closer to Ely and bussed its cheeks before taking off her uniforms.

"Finally you are here," Lourie said while fixing its strands of hair.

"I'm sorry, I forgot I was still sleeping and didn't even know that it was past 6 in the evening." She said in a small tone, her sister nodded before going out into her room.

She had a quick shower before going to bed. Instead of sleeping, she decided to look at some posts on her Instagram and Twitter.

In the middle of her scrolling operation, one message pops up on her screen. Lucia continues reading some posts while something is happening in her messenger account. Even if she ignored it, the message was still popping up on her screen so she decides to take a look at it.

Elton Ramirez sent you a friend request*

Elton Ramirez sent you a message request*

That was the notification said. She clicks those messages to see if its important or controversial chats.

"Sorry to bother you but you forgot your campus ID in the med desk." the man said.

"Hi! you can just get this to me tomorrow when your own your way on the campus. I'll be waiting at the guardhouse to give this to you." It said then the boy sent her a pic.

It was her ID picture with a heart-shaped potted on the right side of her contact number. She then smirked and bite her lips after reading those messages.

"I'll get it tomorrow morning, see you in the guardhouse. Btw, thank you," she replied while smiling.

Though she didn't know why is she smiling. After reading Elton's message she got irritated but now she's smiling like a goddess in the woods. Lucia deactivated her phone and sleeps beside Ely.

"Goodnight my angel," she said before closing her eyes and only felt the warmth of the Comforter.

KEANNA'S POV

I was in the bar when I heard the news that my ex is now getting married. After loving him? after giving him everything I have.

OHHH wait? did I gave him everything? oh, yea only my love for him but myself? of course not! I won't do that. Promising myself not to do the same thing Lucia did.

Don't wanna give a pain in the ass to my parent's ego. Knowing they will throw me out of the mansion if they find out that I was pregnant by a mistake.

Hu! but no no no, I am not going to do the same thing Lucia did. I'm now a woman who knew how to handle everything without getting touch by any man who surrounds me.

Let's say I'm a bitch but didn't try to middle others relationships, unlike Devon! that slut! took everything I have! including the man of my life! I cried the whole way off the dance floor. I was strutting perfectly when my cousin held my hand and pulled me away from the dance floor.

"What!?" I shouted to him.

"Keanna this isn't good! you're dancing seductively!" He confronted me, I glared at him with my fearful eyes but he wasn't affected by it.

"Ohh! looks who's talking! The man who took a video with the girl he makes love with!" I shouted in his face. He looks shocked but stayed calm. Leo pulled me again along with his college mates.

"The hell are you doing!" He shouted in front of his car.

"Lucia didn't know about our relationship. She didn't know that we were cousins that we were relatives." I explained to him, she shooked his head telling me that I'm lying and just mistaken.

"Why?" Leo echoed.

"Because I believe that you won't do such a thing! but you fucking do it! you do it in the crowd!" I cursed him while slapping his manly breast.

"I'm sorry Keang, that was a mistake but you knew I loved your best friend." He apologized while holding my hands and slowly tears in his eyes keep falling.

"You can't force me to forgive you and not to hate you after what you've done to my best friend Leo." I uttered hardly, keep forcing myself to breathe normally.

I walk away from him and grab the taxi that's passing by, I heard Leo's calling but I act like I didn't hear him.

I'm sorry Lucia, I'm so sorry. If only I knew that Leo would do such a thing like that I should have told you that he's a jerk! Forgive me for being an unreasonable best friend a very useless friend to you.

You've been suffering from the pain that Leo caused you emotionally and mentally. Wishing I can endure the pain you were having right now.

I'm sorry... I uttered and let my eyes closed to take some rest.
