Hello, Thank you for keep on reading this book. ^_^. I'll go back to work tomorrow so I will try to update as much as I can today. I hope you will like it.
-------------
3 days before the Birthday
"Yuna. Right?"- asked the guy beside me. I'm reviewing for my quiz later and I hate when someone disturbs me. I look at him. A handsome guy wearing glasses is talking beside me. I don't hear what he is saying because I think I'm daydreaming while looking at him.
"Mitochondria!"- I said when he snap his fingers in front of me. I get back to reality. There is a good looking man beside me. I'm looking straight to his eyes.
"Mitochondria? HAHAHA. Is that the word you say every time you get shocked? I'm expecting for 's**t' or 'f**k' " -he continued laughing silently.
"What do you need? freak."- I said and closed my notebook. I'm not in the mood now to review since this mortal enemy of mine appeared. I remember our class earlier. He got the perfect score in our project while I got 99 only just because I forgot one thing. I really hate it. Now, in this term ranking he got the 1st place followed by me. I hate being a second place! I should be the first!
"I was thinking if you could be my partner in our next laboratory project"- I suddenly stop in what am I doing. partner? Why? He is my enemy why does he want me to be his partner. I look at him trying to send some telepathic message in his brain. 'What's his plan?'
" I don't have plan" - Oh, can he read my mind?
"I just want you to be my partner since we have the same interest plus the laboratory project needs a partner. I mean I can do it alone----"- I cut him and said "I can do it alone too, better than yours"- I rolled my eyes and stand up.
"I know but our professor wants a partner project. Not all of our classmate are smart like us. We are compatible."- I look at him. There's no way for me to be his partner. I CAN DO IT MY OWN!
"I'll talk to Ms. De Vera"- I said and started to walk away from him. You'll see Kim Cowarts. I'll be in top 1 next term.
--------
"I told you Ms. Leviste. I can't do it. It's a partner project"- Ms. De Vera said. I'm inside the laboratory serve as her office too. She is our professor in Bio Science and asking us to do a project by pair which I can do my own because duh I'm Yuna. I don't need Kim's help.
"But Ms. De Vera. You know me. I can do it my own."
10x better than students with partner. Just let me be please" - I tried to beg but she just continued with what she is doing acting like she doesn't hear me at all.
"Ms. De Vera"- I hate begging a lot. But I usually do this even before because my classmates are dumb. All they know is to put make ups on their faces and let me just do the work.
She stopped for a while and look at me. "Mr. Kim Cowarts told me that he will be your partner. I think you will be a great pair plus if you don't do it. Is 70 okay for your final grade? You are on number two now. Would you like to be in number 3,4, or 5 next term? "- I sigh and shake my head. I just walk away from her. I HATE THIS SCHOOL! Cowarts seems like they get what they f*****g want. Only if Meigan isn't here, I probably transferred school already.
I slammed the door when I get out of the laboratory. I'm so pissed! How dare her to refuse my offer to just do a solo project and that kim why does he want me to be his partner? He is probably planning something, to put me in 3rd or he will sabotage our project ?aaaah. I don't want to think anymore.
"I told you that I don't have any bad plans. "- A familiar voice and smell . I look at my right and there he is again.
"What ever!"- I rolled my eyes. " So? When is our meeting? " - He just look at me and give bunch of papers.
"Read that. That's what I want us to do." - He started walking away. What the hell? He should have at least hear my opinion and suggestion. How cold! Is he even a human? No, I think he is a monster. I open the paper and wow. It's actually a good one. While I'm looking at it a piece of paper slide and fell on the floor. What is it? It's a black and red with a few decorations on it. I open it and it shows. (You are invited on Cowarts 18th Birthday on November 5, 2020 (Thursday) ). Wait? Me? or maybe he gave it with the wrong person. I look at the back of the invitation.
To: Ms. Yuna xei Leviste... I swallowed all the saliva I have. So, I'm really invited?
Why?
---------
It's November 2 today, in a few days. My cool,hot and loving future husband Clark Cowarts will be 18 and it will be the biggest event of their lives. I know that he will be very busy by that time and couldn't talk to me. So, I will advance the celebration somehow. I want us to celebrate on our own. I smell the fresh strawberry cake that I made for him. I put cherries and strawberry on top. I know that he will surely love it.
"Hubby, Strawberry cake . hihihihi" - I blush while I'm thinking how handsome he is when he is eating the pure love cake I made for him. I know he will like me this time. I put it in a box then showered and fix myself. I'll try to look more matured now. I will not wear mini skirt. I'll wear a hot black dress and a nice heels. I will just put a cute clip. OMG! He will surely beg for me to love him.

Put your hand in mine
You know that I want to be with you all the time
You know that I won't stop until I make you mine
You know that I won't stop until I make you mine
Until I make you mine
"Charity? You look so beautiful today. "
"Yes! I really did this change for you. "- he walks towards me and push me more to him.
"I'm so shy. "-
"Don't be. I've been waiting for this for a long time"- He looks at me and kiss me-----

"Ms. Charity. We are here now"- I get back to reality. Oh, I'm day dreaming. I found myself inside the car holding a strawberry cake I personally made for him. I know that he really likes strawberry cake. I get out of the car and walk inside the school . I am so excited. I wear my earphone and play Put your hand in mine by PUBLIC. This is my song for Kuya Clark and I's love story. I won't stop until I make him mine. I know he likes me too.
It's 8th floor already. I hope my other kuya's aren't there. I know Kuya Clark is there because he likes to stay in there to drink or to rest every afternoon. Of course, I know all about him.
I'm scared and at the same time excited. What he will be his reaction to my transformation?
Put your hand in mine
You know that I want to be with you all the time
I'm now in front of the Cowarts room. I look myself in the mirror of my phone. I look so beautiful, it's your time Charity. Time to shine. He will be so shocked. He will surely love my look, the new me. I grab the door but it is lock. Luckily, I have a spare key. I went inside.
Walking slowly.
You know that I won't stop until I make you mine
You know that I won't stop until I make you mine
My heart beats so fast. Clark Cowarts. I'll make you mine.
Until I make you mine
The cake slipped from my hand. I want to close my eyes so bad. I want to run away but my feet seems like it's glued on the floor. My heart suddenly stopped beating. All the excitement and effort are all worthless. Of all the things I've done for you. Why you can't love me?
They moan loudly as they finished. They didn't notice I'm there because they enjoy it a lot. He enjoyed it a lot.
"Do you like it baby?"- He asked and then they kissed. I look down. I can't see him kissing another girl. Doing something with other girl. That should be me!
He suddenly look where am I standing. His eyes open widely like he saw a ghost. I look at him even It hurts me. I'm crying a lot inside. I bite my lips and tried my best to smile and hold back my tears. I should accept that he doesn't like me and he will never like me. I run outside. as fast as I can but the elevator sucks so he followed me. He is just wearing boxers shorts. I look at his body. his hot body that was owned earlier by another girl.
"Wh--why are you here?"- he asked. His voice is shaking. Why he seems like he is nervous? . He shouldn't be. He enjoyed it. I saw and heard it earlier.
"Why are you here and Why do you dress like that? and your hair.? "- He keeps on asking me. I still refuse to speak. I can't talk. What should I say then?
"It's all for me isn't it?"- I look at him sharply. No emotion. I don't want him to see how it hurts. I tried to be strong as much as I can. Hold the tears back in my eyes. I'm okay. This is what I get from loving someone who can't love me back.
" CHARITY TALK TO ME!!!!!"- He shakes my shoulders. I can't hold it anymore. I cried so hard. He was about to hug me when I pushed him away from me.
"I did my best for you to love me, but I guess my best wasn't good enough."-
" You don't understand. I love you, but not the way you want. You are like-----"
"A little sister for you. "- I cut him off. I don't want to hear the same lines again and again.
"Charity. It's-----"- The elevator door opened. I went inside . He hold it.
"It's very complicated,Charity " - He looks at me. He looks like he is begging for me not to leave him. I look away. My heart can't see him like this. I might give in.
" They are right. People get tired too. No matter how much you love someone. You'll get tired on chasing them too. "- I look at him. "Please, I want to go home.Let it go. " - he walks backward and sigh.He looks at me straight to the eyes. Those eyes. I fell in love with for many years. I should learn how to un love those but how? how?
When the elevator closed. I started to cry. Cry as much as I can. You need to move on Charity. You need to move forward. It's not worth it anymore.

"Are you okay?"- asked the guy in front of me. I'm inside the coffee shop inside the campus. I sit on the corner of the shop so no one will see me crying. Trying to think if what I saw yesterday is just a dream or real? I look at him. He is wearing a uniform with the name of the shop. So, I think he is working here.
"Yes"- I wiped my tears. He smiled and give me water.
"Here's water. You cried a lot and your body needs water. "- I smiled back. "Thank you."
"If you need someone to talk to. I'm just here. I'm Denver by the way and you?"- He offered his hand to me. I accepted it "Charity."-
"Nice name. It looks good on you.So, I will just leave you . Don't cry. " -- He smiled again and started walking away. "Uhm, Denver. "- I don't know why I called him but I just want someone to talk to now. I don't want the other Cowarts to know what happened.
"Can we talk?"- He walked towards me again and sit in front of me. "Sure"-
"Uhmm, Are you working here? "- I asked.
"Oh, No. My father is the owner of this shop and I actually transferred here. I studied abroad for many years but I want to go back here for college. It's my first day . So, you are my first friend in the campus. "- His two dimples showed when he smiled. He has brown eyes and dark brown hair. It looks good on him and a well build body.
"Oh, do you want me to tour you around?. If you are free since I don't have class yet"- I don't know why I offered him to tour him around. Maybe, to at least forget Clark for a while.
"Sure. I don't have anything to do today. Wait. I'll change"- I nod.
---
"You want another round?"- Asked the girl beside me. We just finished doing some miracle. We are in the park inside the campus. It's class time so no one was here and of course I didn't go to class. Why should I? It's more fun to do this plus I can't stop thinking Charity. I never wanted to hurt her. I just can't love her. I'm a vampire. She's a human. She would probably hate me and run away from me then I'll be uncontrollable like Xavier and might hurt the one I love. "Baby Clark, is that the weird girl yesterday" - She pointed the girl walking a bit far from us. It's Charity with a guy taller than her. I can't see the face because he is wearing a cap and Charity, she isn't wearing a pink mini skirt anymore and ponytail . She instead wearing jeans and long sleeve shirt. It looks good on her. She looks like a beautiful lady.
"Seems like she already found another man that she'll get crazy with"- I don't care what is this girl saying. I don't even know her name. What the hell? Why are they laughing? What are they laughing about? She looks like she is happy. She is now happier with him? Does she likes him?
I closed my fist. I'm trying to control my anger. I might kill him,but why am I acting like this? I should be happy . She is now happy without me. She finally found someone who will love her. not like me. I won't even make her happy. I know it will be never be normal if she stayed with me.
"Hey! Baby Clark. Where are you going?"- I stand up and walk away from this girl and from the scene.
I can't stand seeing her with another man. But I have to be happy for her for her own safety. I'll be 18 in a few days and a lot of things will change. It's for the better. It's for the better, Charity.
All of these is just for you to be safe. I'll do everything to keep you safe.
I love you.
