A House With Heartthrobs (English Version)

Chapter 17



The night was quiet and only the crashing of the waves on the lake could be heard. There were some sounds of cars that occasionally accompanied it. I think it’s twelve o’clock at night. I don’t want to sleep because I think about Mom and Dad. The stars seemed to be smiling the moment I glanced at them in the sky.

Another thing that bothers me is the situation of Lolita and Lucky. I thanked Jez earlier because he’s the one who sent the money for the two. In fact, I even borrowed the money I sent to Lolita and Lucky.

I didn’t want to borrow from Jez but he was generous to help. I knew he needed that for his make-ups so I didn’t want to accept it.

“Girl, I know you! You haven’t been denied grace!”I remember her saying. He convinces me to borrow his money. He knows that I badly needed it.

I hugged myself while caressing my arms. The weather was cooler than before because of the wind. It was cold but it felt good so I closed my eyes.

I went out of the hut house. There were small rows of wooden chairs and I sat down. Then I noticed that there was a fish pond here. In almost a month I have only noticed it just now.

I haven’t been able to walk around outside the mansion yet because I thought there was no other beautiful view here other than Laguna De Bae. My hair rose as the cold wind blew again. I lowered my back so I could hug myself more. I felt the sudden putting of warm cloth from behind me.

I blinked a few times. I thought I was hallucinating. T. H stood there while placing the same hand in the pocket of his shorts. He sat down but not next to me. If not on the other seat.

“Thank you”, I said briefly.

Silence reigned between the two of us. I heard her sigh a few times.

It seems to be deeply ingrained. He looked into the distance as if his eyes had not blinked.

He was like an angel shining because of the moonlight. His beautiful nose was sharpened because of its shadow. I watched as Adam’s apple waved on his throat.

“What are you looking at?”, His eyes were cold looking at me.

I avoided him quickly because I didn’t know if it was fear that caused my heart to beat so fast.

“You’re assuming! Of course not!” I emphatically refuse.

Maybe it was that I was just starstruck by the way he looked.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

For fun, I just played with the rocks in front of me with my foot. I don’t know if I’m fantasizing that he was looking at me or I was just assuming a thing.

“Wow! It’s getting early. You’re still dating!”

I turned to the familiar voice of the arrogant.

“I didn’t know he was your type, T. H”, Latrelle laughed with a smirk in her eyes.

T. H stood up and greeted his friend. He doesn’t show emotion at all” My kind of girl is not like her”.

He went back inside the house after saying that. I forgot to return his jacket because he walked quickly.

“You basted right away. You are not his type”, the tone of his words was annoying.

Latrelle leaned over me and I barely moved away. Any, this arrogant disturbance in a moment. Doesn’t he know the word privacy? Or, isn’t it wise to feel and put aside?

“Why are you still awake?”, He brought his face close to mine. I could smell his breath wafting with the fragrance of the air.

“You have bad breath. Stay away!”, But instead of moving away, he came even closer so I moved away from him.

“It smells even better than your fabric conditioner”, he laughed.

I stayed away until …

He squeezed my waist. So, our bodies almost stick together because of what he did. My chest throbbed as I realized our faces were so close to each other.

I feel like I’m out of breath because of what he did. I pushed him then I stood up.

“Calm down. Why are you so far away?” he says.

I confronted him before I started walking away.

“If you hadn’t been so close to me! I wouldn’t have backed down!” Push me to take a step.

He didn’t answer but he giggled.

“What are you laughing at there?” my bold question. But instead of answering, he burst out laughing. He pointed to the back of my shorts.

My eyes widened. It was punctured maybe because of the nail. Only now did I feel the pain in my thigh.

I immediately put T. H’s jacket there to cover the hole.

“Thank you! You’re a gentleman!” I said sarcastically.

I rushed inside. I caught up with Marcus who had just finished mixing the milk.

“No, where did you put that …”

I pointed to the bread right away before he finished what he wanted to say. It’s on top of the refrigerator next to a variety of stuffing.

“Why does your face look like scratch paper?”, He asked.

But instead of answering him, I continued walking up the stairs.

“Did my friend flirt with you and kissed you?”

My heart automatically rumbled because of his question. What happened earlier flashed back quickly. It was as if the remote had used my brain because of the fast backward of the incident.

I shook my brain. What the heck, Kaoree!?

It’s just Wyn’s flirty mode. Not for others. Then Latrelle really? Eww.

Yeah, I’m pretty good at myself so I’m choosy!

“Hey? Are you okay?”

He really wants to remind me of what happened earlier and I won’t forget?

I took a deep breath and acted normal.

“Yes. I’m fine. Then what did you say that your friend kissed me?”

He scratched his head and was unable to answer.

“Over my Goddess body. Eww”, my eyes rolled.

When I noticed Marcus coming out to follow his friend I immediately ran away. I slammed the bedroom door shut and covered my face with a pillow.

“What is it, Kaoree!? It’s just nothing!”

Why is Marcus acting like that !? Latrelle did not kiss me and if that happens, I shall die!

Okay! Stop thinking about it. Just sleep it off.
