Chapter 2

"Can you believe in that? He doesn't want to talk to me for heaven's sake! He's so choosy!"
"Can you stop shouting!" Roxie shouted at me.
"And please stop walking. Just sit, Blaire." Claire, my sister added as she rolled her eyes at me.
I took a deep breath before sitting down next to them. That guy! That guy is so annoying! I shook my head. I was the one who approached him, he was still choosy. Psh! Who does he think he is, huh?
"What are the things you told him and is he acting like that? Ha?" Anne asked while giggled.
"Uhm, I just say that... he can't reject me just like that and why did he still choose to ignore me." I looked away, trying to avoid their gaze. 
I heard them chuckled but it ended up to laughing so hard. So, I looked at them with deadly glare. What so funny? Huh?
"Why are you guys laughing? Stop it! " I said and rolled my eyes at them.
"You know, you look like a demanding girlfriend, Blaire. You shouldn't do that," Alice said while giggling.
"Why did you acted like you are his girlfriend, Blaire? It's inappropriate." Lev asked as she put a pillow above on her thighs. 
"Maybe, he was turn-off."
"Uhm, I don't... know?" I answered her which made them laughing again. What's their problem, huh? I'm just telling the truth.
God! I hate them! I don't like this! I shook my head a bit and I rolled my eyes at them. 
I stand up and went to the kitchen to check if we still have a food. And there's nothing but the only one carbonara that I cooked yesterday. So, I need to go the market to buy groceries for us. And of course, they need to contribute. Duh! 
I went out to the kitchen and go in front of them. I placed my two palms in front of their face so they could see me here. And that means, I need money to buy a f*cking groceries now. I smiled at them.
They sighed heavily before put a money on my palm. We only buy groceries every two weeks. I leaved them there so I could take a bath before going to the market.
Today's Tuesday. We don't have a class 'cause it's suspended, I don't know the reason. But, I'm happy because it's suspended. It's better.
After an hour, I went to the market and buy can goods, fresh milk, fresh fruits and vegetables, fish and chicken, also Junk foods, biscuits, drinks in can, and ingredients like tomatoes, onions, etc... I still bought a lot that we often eat and cook.
As I approached the second counter, I saw a familiar face on the first counter. I quickened my pace to line up immediately near him. I looked at him.
"Oh! You're here!" I said like I didn't know that he was here. I mean, I just knew that he was here right now. Just now!
He just looked at me for a moment but he did not speak, again. My brows furrowed and I just rolled my eyes. He's snob. Feeling famous. Duh! 
I finished paying and so did he. I accelerated my pace and then pretended to be heavy with what I was carrying. Well, I'm really having a hard time with what I'm carrying. And because of that, I bumped into him, I meant it.
"Opps! I'm sorry," I said and then I knelt down to fix the plastics that I immediately let go.
"Do you need help?" He offered a help? OMG! I looked at him.
I nodded. "Uhm, sure! Thanks!" He took the other plastic I was holding and walked first. I smirked before I followed him.
He also put it in the back while I took the key from my sling bag. I got the key and accidentally, it included the necklace that was left on the table on Sunday.
"Uhm, Is this yours?" I asked him, I also showed up the necklace.
He bit his lower lip and he nodded "Yes." He was about to take the necklace but I took it away. I smiled which made his brows furrowed.
"I like it. Can I keep this?" I smiled at him.
"What?" His brows furrowed.
"Don't worry I will not sell it, I will wear this always," I smirked. This is too precious to sell, besides it's remind me of our first meeting.
"Did I agree? Huh?" 
"I don't need your permission. Besides, you left this with me, remember?" I smiled while he is so... Pissed? I think! 
"I didn't left it to you. I just thought that it was yours." He explained.
"But it wasn't," I simply said.
"Give me back that necklace." He tried to take it from me again but I took it away again.
"No! This is mine now," I said 
"Give me back. Come on!" He tried to take it again from me.
"No! No!" I put my hand behind my back where I was holding the necklace. He even followed my hands but I guess it was a wrong move.
And that, he looked like he hugged me. He even stared at me and I also stared at him, too. He bit his lower lip again. I don't know why he did that. I felt it awkward and i want to pushed him but I can't move. I just looked away to avoid her intently gaze. 
"You know, I really don't want to talk to people like you, because you are so annoying," He said with a low voice that made me looked at him.
"You fvcking asshole! You're so choosy, huh? I'm enough pretty but then you rejected me." I suddenly pushed him and went in my car. I opened the window a little. I sighed before looked at him.
"See you again, My Luke." I smirked and rolled my eyes at him before I go. I also noticed the astonishment on his face. Maybe he was wondering how I found out his name. Psh! It's up to him.
I'm not done with him yet. He is so annoying, too. He's really choosy. Am I ugly? I'm not! Duh! Doesn't he know how to look properly? Maybe, he needs to check his eyes to the doctor. His eyes weren't working properly!
After two days, I became even busier in my studies. Actually, it's really hard to study but I need it, so that Claire and I will leave the country someday. That's our goal!
I was here at the starbucks in university when I saw Claire walking towards me. I noticed that he looked sad or disapointed. Maybe, mommy didn't send her an allowance again.
"Hey! What's wrong?" I asked as she sat down in front of me.
"I called mommy. I don't have an allowance anymore, Blaire. And she said, she can only send you because there is a problem with the company." He shook her head.
"Claire! Let's just share what she's going to send me. I don't care, okay? Come on, Claire. Don't mind her. Okay?" I was just trying to calm her down.
"Then she said, maybe I'm just spending the allowance she sends me on my luxuries! You know, it's very unfair, Blaire." She frowned so I held his hand, hoping for this time to calm her down.
"Life is unfair, Claire. Just ignore her. She knows nothing about our lives," I said calmly.
She sighed. "Her reason is not valid." 
"Yeah. I know."
"I think, I'll just ask daddy for help. What do you think?" She asked.
"I think so. He'll send your allowance immediately." I smiled at her and held her hand.
"Thanks, Blaire." 
My brows furrowed. "For what?" 
"For this! Because you are always here beside me, you always take care of me, you always support me. So thank you."
"Of course, you're my sister, Claire!" We smiled to each other and we continue eating.
I am so lucky to have a twin sister like her and also a friend. She is the type who does not know how to keep her anger, it is rare. I love her so much, she is the only one who understands me, too, because our parents are always away. They are always on a business trip. That's why we chose to live in a condo rather than to our house, it's boring there.
"Where did you get that?" I looked at Anne and the others.
"What?"
"There. On your chest. The necklace. Where did you get that." I smiled as they got even more confused about the necklace.
"Well... it's from Luke." I smiled. Their eyes widened in shock, and suddenly jumped on me to hug me while screaming. I just laughed.
"Stop it, guys!" I said while giggling. "Oh my god! Please, stop."
"So, what? Do you have a relationship with him now?"
"What's your status now, Blaire?"
"Has anything happened yet?"
"Stop it! What are you saying? Nothing like that, okay?" I looked at the T.V but suddenly looked at them again.
"And about this necklace? I just took it from him forcibly." As expected, they hit me but it's just weak. I laughed a little.
"I thought you two had something!" They shook their head.
"Many die of delusion. Just a warning!" I giggled. They threw a pillow at me while also laughing. I did not hit them back, I could no longer watch what I was watching.
I was just in the middle of watching a movie on netflix when my phone beeped. I took my phone out of my pocket to see who it was. And I saw a name of our boybestfriend, he message me on my instagram
treize: I'll go there. Can I?
avablaire: Sure! We'll wait.
"Treize will come here now," I said without looking at them. 
I wonder what is there with that man and will come here. Maybe, his problem is about the woman again. A minute later, he was here. And he looks so tired and frustrated, he's brokenhearted, again?
I was right, his foreigner jowa left him so he is here now. I told him! That girl is not healthy for him! I know that in the first place, she is a gold digger. I am not judgmental, I am just telling the truth. Alright?
"I told you! She's not healthy for you!" I said at Treize as he put her palms over his face.
"She's healthy or not, I don't care! She's not my problem, anyway." He said. Our brows furrowed at the same time.
"I saw a beautiful woman in the mall where my ex took me before we broke up. And damn, for the first time, my heart beat quickened. Do you believe in that? I think I'm inlove but I also think that she's a man hater. I seem to have a hard time getting her for fvck's sake," he said hopelessly.
After that, we decided to go to sleep. The six of us were in the bedroom and Treize was just there on the sofa. Well, he understood that and he was the one who offered to sleep on the sofa. Duh!
"Oh where are you going?" 
I stopped getting my key from my bag after Anne asked that question. It was saturday and we're already outside the university. We just finished doing a research paper in the library so we can go home or go everywhere we wants.
I smiled at her. "Just there." 
"Where? You have a secret, Blaire. Am I right?" I giggled. She's too importunate.
"I'm going to Luke's University." I smirked "Do you still have to come?" I asked but she just smiled and walked away. I just shook my head then got in the car and turned on.
I just want to visit someone. Duh! Besides, I don't have a class or research anymore so I can go anywhere I want, and then just only now will I go there.
I was close to the university but I saw Luke talking to two men and a woman. Who is that woman? Maybe, his friends, I guess? After that, his 'friends' left first and he walked to the nearby store.
But, I noticed something was wrong. Three other men followed him. They walked, all at once. I slowly followed them but I was a bit far away so they wouldn't notice me.
Then they got in the car with Luke. I just followed them until they stopped in relatively unoccupied. I don't know what this place is, I did not notice.
They got out of the car and talked for a while. Shit! I'm nervous. Why? And there, my eyes widened when three men punched Luke in the stomach and in the face. Oh my god! What will I do? Shit!
I stopped the car and went out to look for the police or whatever. Then I saw a policeman on the other side, I ran for help. I can't go there. I might even get beaten up, too.
"Uhm, sir! Please help me! My friend got beaten up there," I said. I'm still out of breath.
"Where is it?" 
"Here, sir!" I ran back to where they were and the police followed me and then I pointed at Luke and those who were beating him.
The police whistled so the three men stopped and immediately ran but of course the police chased them. I went to Luke with a bruised face. Ouch!
"Hey! Are you okay?" I asked worriedly.
"Do I look like... Okay?" He answered me back rudely.
"So rude. You should've thank me 'cause I saved you but you still mean to me." I rolled my eyes and stand up.
"H-hey," he stopped me from walking away.
"What? Are you gonna tell me that I shouldn't be here, that I shouldn't save you and mess with your life because you don't know me, huh? Am I right?"
"I'm-" he stopped when a police man came to us.
"Miss?" I looked at the police man who helped us.
"Yes, sir? Thank you so much for your help." I smiled at him.
"It's nothing. Besides, it's my job. How about your friend, is he okay?" He asked.
I nodded and looked at him who was still sitting on the floor before look back at the policeman. "Yes, I think he's okay, sir. Anyway, he's not my friend. I thought he is." I smiled.
"Oh, that's sad. I really thought he's your boyfriend. Anyway, you two cute together. Why don't you get to know each other?" He smiled before he left.
I looked at Luke who was looking at me. He frowned and I just shrugged before walk away, leaving him there. But on the other hand, I smiled widely inside.
I agree with that! The policeman has a good eyes.

    I'm in a relationship and today when I went to the mall to help my mom with shopping I just stood there like a technological zombie texting my significant other. I walked around with my head down most of the time and jut maneuvered out of people's way with my peripheral vision. I'm very loyal when it comes to a relationship. When I make promises I'll keep them, and I despise people who break their vows. I believe a person is only as good as their words, and if they commit actions
