CHAPTER 12

2301 Words
ANGEL'S POV SHE was not that quick to convince but she didn't know, why? In a short time he managed to tame her. As if it were a salesman in a department store, a few words will convince you immediately. Perhaps also because she's now weak because her sadness has weakened her. It's sad that you're hard to escape from. Angel used to not be quick to trust a person because she first shakes her well, but when it came to a Daemon Gabrielle Santiago she didn't notice that the first time they met she accidentally gave her trust completely to him. I already give my trust to you, and I can't understand myself, why? She didn't know, why did he win her heart so easily? Maybe because she feels at ease on him. She didn't even know how he got her trust? Maybe because it looks confident. It looks like it won't do any harm, because it doesn't suit his attractive eyebrows. Fluttering eyelashes, piercing nose. Red and attractive lips with a word on this handsome face you would not think it would do anything wrong. I didn't realize and I didn't even notice, How did you get my trust? What else could I be unaware of and not notice that you get? Angel was about to take a cigarette from the box but Daemon stopped her by stopping his hand which was already on top of the cigarette box. So she couldn't stop looking at it and their eyes met, she didn't know why? She felt a strange electricity running through her entire body the moment their eyes met. So she quickly withdrew the hand she was holding. ❝You can use this,❞ he gave her the cigarette that stuck to her lips And because of that she felt a strange tingling in her chest, maybe because the cigarette that he gave her stuck to her lips this. But what's wrong if she also applies her lips to the cigarette that already has traces of his lips on it. So she took a deep breath again, and dared to apply the cigarette he had already used to his lips. At first, she couldn't help but notice it, maybe that's only natural for newbies like her, but Angel is still groping. The smoke seemed to enter her mouth, instead of being blown out. Seen he just laughed at her when she act like she was mad. The trepidation she felt was suddenly replaced by a rapid pounding in her chest, when she saw their smiles that seemed to melt. Is it because we already kissed? No, maybe he has a virus? That's right, my chest is beating fast, because I'm afraid he has a contagious virus. My chest was beating fast because I was afraid that I would be infected in case he did have a virus and it had no other meaning. What is the difference between the pounding of the chest of a person who is afraid and the pounding of feelings of a person who loves? Fear will make you feel nervous and make your hair stand on end. Whereas the person who loves can also have a stroke, because he is also afraid. She's just afraid of falling for someone and loving him, at a time when their heart is not yet ready to accept the challenge of love. ❝In my high school days, I like to cutting classes, copy my seatmate answer, fight and start trouble so that I was kicked out until there was no school that would accept me so my grandparents decided when I was in the states, studying. What they know is that my shenanigans are over when they deport me to the states, but what they don't know is what they did to bring me to the states, I feel like they threw me away and vomited. That's why I was careful and clean if I did something stupid in the states, then the students and teachers were afraid of me because I didn't do anything that's why I didn't report anyone from my grandparents. That's the reason why my antics in the states don't reach the Philippines, of course my grandfather and grandmother thought that I had matured at that time.❞ this mischievous story to him. Even though what he was telling her was nonsense, she still felt the pain he was feeling when he said the words---❛thrown❜---his grandfather and grandmother took care of him. She wants to tell him that---It's his fault too because he knows the entrance is all trouble---but maybe he's just looking for attention. Maybe his grandfather and grandmother thought that it was enough, they had made up for the shortcomings of his parents. There are things that even if he gives everything, it is still lacking, that is what he feels because the excessive love given by his grandfather and grandmother cannot fill the deficiency that only his parents can do, fill up ❝But I still graduated as Valedictorian,❞ he boasted. So she couldn't help but raise one of her eyebrows at what she heard. ❝How?❞ she wondered. Is that possible? For a student who has been kicked out because of the amount of nonsense, graduating as Valedictorian seems like it's impossible, but with his mischievous smile, he can see that it is possible. ❝I copy the smart ones, I make projects with the talented ones and the most effective thing is that I pay money to the teachers to increase my grades.❞ proudly recounting this. She knows that copying and having classmates do projects is not new, but paying the teacher to increase the grades, he did not think that there is still such a trade in the school where the students are shaped. ❝Even though I'm not smart, I'm resourceful.❞ he boasted to her again. ❝What do you do when you're still studying?❞ he got curious in her high school life. Angel just graduated Cumlaude in the agriculture course, and from elementary school to college he was always at the top of the class. There are many people who regret that he only took the Agriculture course because he is also capable of higher courses. When it comes to sports, she is always the champion of her school, and she's always win she never been lose. Everyone said. ❝She's an example of perfection❞ because of beauty and brain, she has. Even she's Perfect but still a simple girl, she chose a simple life rather than a complicated position because she doesn't want trouble, but now she doesn't avoid trouble anymore, she's the one who approaches it. An accident that she could not accept, changed the course of her life. The incident in her life proved that there is nothing perfect in the world, everyone makes mistakes just like everyone else stumbles. ❝Study first, Bookworm, Books before boys are what I used to apply when I was still studying.❞ she simply told here. Study first, she prioritizes study in everything. Study first before having fun. Bookworm, she likes to hang out in the library. She wants that when she starts studying, the whole environment is peaceful and quiet so that she will not be disturbed by what she's studying, she wants to focus her full attention on what she was reading. Book's before boys, she prefers to entertain herself by reading books rather than flirting with boys who only give her headaches. Those rules, Angel herself created to ensure her good future, while her parents' policy is loose on her because they have confidence in her that their daughter will not do anything to destroy her own future. ❝Are you NBSB?❞ asked suddenly ❝What do you mean?❞ she wondered, he faced her and smiled teasingly. ❝No Boyfriend Since Birth in short never been touch, never been kiss❞ it teased. No Boyfriend Since Birth, she chose to be single even though there were many people courting her. All of her lovers are handsome and rich, but there is not one that she likes. Although one of the professions of the one who courted her, Andrew, he seems perfect, but the problem is this guy always thinks 'time is gold', he is always busy with everything, but what he doesn't like is that he waits for nothing. When they went on a date before, do you think that he wouldn't pick her up, because he said he had an unexpected meeting, actually at that time this guy was still courting her. Kyle his a famous fashion ramp model, the problem is this guy is so famous. When they went on a date with her even though he was flirting with her, her fans immediately took it upon themselves, and for the first time she got 'bushers' calling her out on her social media. One of the things she doesn't like is being judged, and being judged for this. Manuel his a military the problem is it's always absent even if it's flirting. What he always gives are flowers, even though she doesn't need them anymore because they have a flower farm. One of the things she doesn't like is the one who doesn't feel it. Dave and Dale Fuentez these two guys are twins and there family and her family are friends. Dave Fuentez is a lawyer who sees courtship as a case he must win. One of the things she doesn't like is people looking at hee like a trophy or something. As for Dale Fuentez in politics, he also looks at courtship like campaigning that only the good side of it will be shown. One of the things he doesn't like is just promises that are nailed down. But to be true to all those who are flirting with her, all of them have something to say, but she doesn't really look at one of them. For her, relationships are not rushed. And she wanted to be ready emotionally and physically. She wanted to be ready in pain because pain is part of love, as they say---When you are not get hurt, You have not loved---because love is not only pure pleasure, it is mixed with pain that you don't bear with it, it will be with you. She wanted to be ready to fight for her love because fighting is also part of love that's why you need to be ready physically, others said---when you are weak, you lose because you need to be strong so that you can fight your love is full of narrow-minded people who want to get in the way. Relationship is not experiment, if you just wanted to experience being in a relationship. Relationship is not a game, if you just want to play to have fun. Being single it's not wrong, it's a good choice if you still didn't find the one who will make you feel being in love, she blew smoke on the smoker. ❝It's my choice,❞ was her true response. Being single isn't fate, it's a choice. A good choice to find yourself, when you're lost in this dangerous world. ❝I chose to be single cause I still didn't find my soulmate, I'm not looking either because for me destiny will lead me to him.❞ she said with reason. He looked into her eyes, and their eyes met. At this time could not understand, why? Her heart was beating so fast as if it wanted to escape from her chest. ❝How about you why are you still single?❞ he asked here. Angel caught the change in his face, he smiled bitterly but in those smiles she found the pain he was trying to hide. ❝I can't commit,❞ with fear in his eyes is his response. It's hard and scary to fall in love with you. Some people can't commit cause they are broken deep inside, no matter how much they love the one they love they still can't have a relationship. There is a fear in their heart that prevents the love they feel from growing, fear maybe? But that's the process of love. There is an ache mixed with every sweetness that once inevitably feels like it's numb. There is also the accompanying fear that in the end the heart that has been forced to open will only be left to shed tears. You know? The toughest opponent? In this world it is ourselves because, sometimes we retreat whenever we feel fear that is hard to fight. ❝It's just a waste of time,❞ there is no emotion to add to it. What does he think about relationships? A worthless game, it's just a waste of time. Falling for someone like you is like jumping off a cliff, even though you know from the start that there's nothing wrong with you when you end up falling. Loving someone like you is like stabbing a knife in my chest that only causes pain that is hard to forget. Who is it? It's stupid to love someone who doesn't know how to love, someone who doesn't believe in love. At first you knew you couldn't participate? But can we really stop every beat of our heart, to someone who is just the first we know that a pure love that we have offered will not be reciprocated. Only stupid person will fall to a man, who doesn't know how to love and I'm not stupid enough to fall to a person who doesn't believe in love. I will never fall in love with someone, In the beginning that I know that person can't love me back.
