CHAPTER 10 LOVE QUARREL?!
ALEXA’S POV
When I arrived at school, I immediately ran towards the classroom hoping that Ken would be there, but he was not. I breathlessly approached Rhea.NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
“Oh? What is up with you, beshy? Who chased you again? Is someone bullying you again? ” she asked one after another.
I took a deep breath before answering her.
” No, I am looking for Ken. Have you seen him? ” I asked her.
Rhea gave me a silly smile. I know what is in her mind.
“Just answer me, Beshy,” I asked frowning because of her silly smile.
“Fine, fine. Your head really heats up immediately. Well, all I know is that he is in the gym now. They are so worked up from the camp, yet they still have the training, today. Poor thing. Anyway, why are you looking for him? ” she asked.
“I will tell you later. I have to go.” I replied to her and then left.
I almost run the way to the gym. I feel so guilty. So, he was the one I saw peeking in my room last night while I am talking with Xander. I almost pushed the door open when I arrived at the gym. The players were even surprised by what I did, but I did not care. I immediately looked around the gym to find Ken, but he was not there. Where can he be? Since I could not find him, I just decided to ask the people here.
“Ahm, excuse me. Is Ken not here? ” I asked politely
” Why is the beautiful maiden turned ugly nerd looking for Ken? I am here available. ” replied one of those players.
I ignored his insults and waited to see if someone would answer my question. The person who answered me earlier was about to approach me when suddenly someone spoke behind me, causing me to turn to where Ken was.
” If I were yours, you would not touch my girlfriend,” Ken spoke emphatically
“Easy, bro, I am just kidding here. Your head is hot right away,” he said while raising his hands as if giving up.
” And the next time you insult my girlfriend, I am the one you will fight against. ” he threatened.
The man retreated and approached his other teammates who were laughing at him. Ken approached me.
” What do you need that you just rush here? ” he asked.
” I just wanted to talk to you about what happened last night. ” I spoke to him calmly.
” Maybe next time, I am busy now,” he responded to me coldly.
And he passed me. Oh my! His aura looks like he is really angry. But what exactly is the reason? I pulled his hand to make him turn to me again.
“Just 5 minutes Ken,” I said with the calmest voice I have
” I said, I am busy! Is that hard to understand?! ” he raised his voice in me.
I was surprised by his appearance and the rise of his voice. We also had an audience because of the loudness of his voice. My tears are rolling down my face. He yelled at me for the first time. I removed my grip from him and ran out of the gym. I do not know where my feet took me. I just stopped when someone hugged me. When I turned around, I cried even more. He simply hugged me tightly, and I just cried so hard in his arms. I do not even understand why I am crying. Is it because he yelled at me, or am I —-? No, it is impossible
Soon I will settle down. I faced the man who hugged me.
“Why are you here? ” I asked him still surprised.
“Well, we have a practice game at your gymnasium. I went early because I was looking for you, then Rhea told me you were at the gym. So I went there, I was going to approach you, but you were talking to a guy, so I was thinking of waiting for you outside then I saw you running while crying. I tried to call you countless times, but you could not hear me, so I followed you. ” he explained at length.
” I see, sorry, brother. I did not expect that you would see me like this. ” I almost whispered to him.
” What is wrong? Who is that guy, and what right does he have to make my princess cry? The last time I saw you like this was with —- ”
He stopped what he was saying when I raised my hand as a sign to make him stop talking, especially about that memory.
” Well, maybe I am too sensitive, and for the second question, he is my boyfriend. ” I said
Kuya Xander’s eyes widened as he said, ” Pardon me, He is your what again? ”
” My boyfriend. ” I laughed, ” I mean fake boyfriend. ”
Brother Xander’s face suddenly became serious, then he said, “How did this happen, Alexa? ”
I have no choice but to tell my brother Xander everything. While I was telling the story, my brother’s face got worse and worse. Oh, is he angry? Later on….
“Did your parents know this? ” he asked me emphatically
I swallowed before shaking my head at him. He let go and lay down.
“Break up with him,” he ordered me authoritatively
” I do not want to. ” I answered firmly.
“Is it because of his blackmail, or is there another reason? ” he asked again.
I was quiet. Yes, what exactly is the reason why I do not want to? Moments passed, and I still could not answer my brother. That is why he spoke again,
” Fine, I will not force you to do things you do not want to do. But the next time I see you cry because of that guy, he must prepared for me. ”
” Thank you, brother, and please do not tell Mom and Dad about us. ” I am begging him
” It is your life. You are grown up. Stand by your decision but do not let it hurt you. I will not tell them because that is your story, and you should tell it to them. ” he said while sighing
“Let’s go get ice cream, brother. It looks like you are stressed too. ” smiling response to him to assure him that I am okay now.
He smiled, “come on.”
And he walked to the store first. Yay, ice cream
KEN’S POV
I lost my concentration when playing because of what happened earlier between me and Alexa. Add what I saw earlier. Really annoying! They were together when that man. Argh!
*** FLASHBACK
” I said, I am busy! Is that hard to understand?! “I was annoyed with her
She seemed surprised by my look and even me because of the rise in my voice. Some people are also curious about us. He let go of my hand and ran away while crying. Argh ken, what did you do? I hate myself
“Alexa, wait,” I shouted, but maybe she did not hear me.
I looked in my coach’s direction to ask permission to follow Alexa. The coach nodded, so I left the gym. I even chased her which I also regretted. Because I saw her hugging the man she was with yesterday. Annoying, Argh! I just left and went back to the gym and continued training.
*** END OF FLASHBACK
It is annoying, but why am I annoyed? Do not get me wrong. I do not have feelings for that girl. I am just pissed off because I am someone who is threatening my possession. Haist, I will just go home.
