CHAPTER 5
Caelan Rainer Vassamonte POV
It's like just one day ago, my life was quiet. I don't think about much other than my studies and how to help my family. I don't know if I'll be happy or not because I'm at the right age.
I asked, didn't I? I wished that my life would be quiet again this year. But why did that wish seem to be blown away by the wind?
I closed my eyes when Talliah's naked body suddenly entered my mind. I frustratedly pulled my hair as I felt my manhood slowly hardened inside my pants.
I wanted to scream and cry because I never felt like this before. I don't have such things in my mind like desiring someone. Yes, I like a woman, I admire, but it doesn't come to the point where my pet hardens when I think about her. I don't think about Leina like this.
Because I know she is very different. She was very different from Talliah.
I jumped in shock when someone knocked on the door. Confused, I looked at my shorts and closed my eyes when I saw that it's still hard.
Please, calm down. My dumb request. And I breathed a sigh of relief when it returned to normal.
I opened the door and Mama's face appeared to me smiling sweetly at me. She held my cheek and caressed it gently. I closed my eyes because the image of a woman and her soft hand caressing my cheek entered my mind. With every touch of her lips on my forehead, only good feeling was caused.
"You're really a man now," Mama said with a laugh, causing me to open my eyes. I shook my head as I remembered the faint giggles and laughter of a woman.
"How is your girlfriend doing? Is she okay?" Mama asked while looking at my reaction.
My lips went in a thin line as my eyebrows furrowed. Who's the girlfriend they are talking about? They know that I've never had a girlfriend, right?
"Mom, I don't have a girlfriend," I said, making her to pout her lips a bit.
"I'm sad, son. When did you learn to keep secrets from your dad? Why did we suddenly find out that you have a girlfriend and you are taking care of her because she is sick? That's why you didn't come home last night because of her, huh? but we understand that your girlfriend needs you more," Mama's long litany made my mouth parted.
I closed my eyes in annoyance. Damn it, she manipulated my life again. How can I date Leina now?
Talliah, you're such a manipulative evil woman. . .
My fist clenched due to irritation.
"But infairness, son, your girlfriend's voice is very sexy. I talked to her last night. You bought something like medicine so she's the who answered our call," Mama happily said while telling the story.
Ma, I didn't buy medicine. I was there in a room where all I could see was my face. I was sleeping because he kidnapped me. I wanted to report it to my mom but it seems like someone is stopping me.
Don't you want that woman to be in jail by the time you get free from her? This is your chance, Caelan. Report it so the madness of that woman can stop. But thinking that even if I put him in prison, I know she will still be free. With his wealth and connections, it is unlikely that she can do anything she wants.
What do I have against her? I was just normal person while she was like a queen.
"Son, when will we meet her? We want to meet her," Mom said excitedly while her eyes still sparkled.
I just smiled at Mama and told her that I'm going to sleep because I was still sleepy. But the truth is, I just don't want to talk about that girl.
I was looking at my ceiling when I heard another knock on my door.
I sighed. Was it Mom again?
"B-brother . . .” someone called softly outside the door. I was relieved when I heard my sister voice.
"Can I come in?" he asked using her soft voice. I smiled and shouted.
"Sure, you can come in. The door isn't lock."
It didn't take long and my sister gentle face appeared to my view. She smiled at me so I smiled back.
“Come here.” I tapped the spot on my side. She happily obeyed and sat properly. I smiled as I watched my sister look beautiful with her new hairband.
"Wow, your hairband is beautiful. Is that Mom new bought?" I asked smiling. My sister shook her head making my forehead suddenly wrinkled.
"Sister Eryn bought it, brother." Caelana said happily, making me pale.
Who is Eryn? It's impossible, right? She's not the only Eryn in the world.
"Brother, is sister Eryn okay? I'm worried because she have a fever that's why you didn't come home last night right?" my sister asked innocently. I suddenly clenched my fist.
Damn it, even my sister sympathizes with her madness.
"I don't have a girlfriend, Lana," I uttered. My sister blinked her eyes.
"Didn't she said yes to you last night? She's already your girlfriend right? Brother, you are lucky with her. She is very kind like sister Leina."
Kind? Maybe crazy?
"Where did you meet your Sister Eryn?"
"When I was in Grade 2, I was having trouble breathing because someone fought with me outside the gate while I was waiting for you."
"I thought I was going to die. Because my chest is aching badly and I can't breathe properly. Then suddenly a very beautiful woman came. He helped me. He took me to the hospital. I'm so scared, Brother. I don't want die yet. Fortunately, Ate Eryn helped me.”
"She's very smart. She told me to be strong because you'll be sad when, I'm gone. She said, I should keep fighting for my life because I deserve to live. She's so cool that's why she's my idol."
"I want her for you. Sister Leina is also nice, but I prefer sister Eryn for you."
My sister was happy while telling the story, but my heart felt like it was being squeezed because of what I found out. I almost lost my sister. I didn't even do anything. So, does that mean they have known each other for a long time? Should I thank her, then? For saving my sister?
A week passed well and quietly. I am grateful for that and wish that this would continue.
I was writing in my notebook when my classmates suddenly started making noise in front of me. I just ignored them because they were always noisy.
I stopped writing when I heard Gunter whistled. Suddenly there was a murmur.
"Shit, bro, she's so sexy," I heard Arlo whispered next to me softly.
I just shook my head and ignored him. These idiots are just chasing sexy girls.
"Fuck! She's so hot," Gunter said in front of me. My seat was in the back so I could hear his soft whisper.
"Is he our temporary teacher in Hydrology? Because if yes, I won't really be absent anymore, men." Gunter said with a laugh. Max kicked him and they laughed together. Psh, really crazy people.
Out of curiosity, I lifted my head to see who our new prof in Hydrology. Sir filed for leave because his wife. That's why we have a substitute teacher for the meantime.
My eyes widened and my lips parted a bit as I saw the woman who occupied my mind for a week. She didn't even feel it personally but she e was always running through my mind.
Wearing a violet short skirt and a white fitted long sleeve, Talliah Eryn Castillego is standing in front of the class with her beautiful smile.
My brows met in the middle because of confusion. Why is she here? And, of course, is that still a clothes? It's like her chest is about to come out because it's too tight to her body.
She smiled sweetly at me causing me to look away. I clenched my fist while staring at my notebook.
"Fuck! dude, why is she making me hard?” Gunter said with a laugh that made me angry.
My vision suddenly went dark, I felt like I wanted punch someone. What, Caelan? Are you crazy? Well, you haven't even tried that. You don't have an enemy either? And now you want to punch someone?
I could hear Gunter's laughter. I want to put some paper inside his mouth for his annoying laughter to stopped.
"Good morning, class! I am Talliah Eryn, your temporary professor for Hydrology,” Talliah greeted the class with her seductive voice.
"Good morning, Miss," all my classmates said in unison.
"Miss, you're so beautiful," Gunter's voice echoed inside our room. Talliah and my classmates laughed. I turned my hand into fist. He's really an attention seeker.
I just bowed my head and focused on the notebook. Why are you so angry, Caelan? You shouldn't care about that girl anymore. Act like you didn't know her.
I can feel someone's gaze and I know very well who the person who owns those two eyes.
Talliah, what do you really need? Why do you always pester my mind? You just want my body right? Maybe that's enough? Is it true when she said that she loves me?
Why me? Why not just the others? I blinked suddenly when I was suddenly called.
"Who's that handsome boy in the back?" Talliah asked with a teasing voice.
Suddenly, my classmates cheered.
"Ohhhhh,"
"Caelan, what kind of soap do you use?"
"Woah!!!"
My classmates cheered.
"Miss, Caelan is a shy type. That's how he really is, he's quiet and doesn't speak," Gunter being the attention seeker spoke.
My eyes darkened as I looked at his back.
"Oh, is that so?" Talliah asked laughing. She's smiling from ear to ear. Tss is she dumb she doesn't even feel that Gunter likes her? Psh.
"Ma'am, you should teach now. You're wasting the class time," I said coldly making my classmates gasp.
I looked around. The lips of my classmates parted but one of them smiled while shaking her head at me.
She is Jess. She also likes to feel her surroundings so I quickly looked away from his judgemental eyes.
"What the hell, dude, you're being rude to Miss. You should at least say thank you. Because Miss gave you a compliment," Gunter said that made me want to scoff.
Our attention was caught when Talliah laughed softly.
"It's okay, class. He's right. I should be teaching right now and not chit-chatting with all of you,” she smiled and smirked at me. I rolled my eyes at her.
An hour passed and our Hydrology class was over. Talliah winked at me before she left our room. I just lost my senses thinking that I am angry every day because of her.
I just sighed while putting my bag on my back. I was about to leave when Gunter's voice stopped me.
"Dude, what is your problem with Miss Talliah? She just wants to keep up with us. Why are you so killjoy?” Gunter said while staring at me. I looked at him darkly. Me, Killjoy? You just want to be noticed, eh?
"You're lucky, because Miss seems to like you. Don't you like her? Like, dude, are you blind? Our new prof has a very round and delectable ass, and nice breasts," Gunter said in amazement
acting as holding a pair of circles.
He and Max even got close in front of me.
They are really such a jerk.
I looked at Gunter coldly. I tightened my grip on my bag while clenching my fist.
"Shit, dude... Did you saw how sexy she was? You are really lucky. I bet she's so good in bed too," Gunter said while making a moaning sound.
I suddenly raised my right fist and shoot, my fist landed perfectly on his sinful mouth.
Suddenly, my female classmates cheered. As Gunter held his bleeding mouth. He angrily eat the distance between us and he looked at me angrily.
"Fuck, what's your problem? Why did you punch me?” he said in shock while his eyes were on fire looking at me.
"It's enough dude," Max suddenly pulled him away and pushed him away from me.
I coldly looked at Gunter with a smirk on my lips. You deserve it, idiot.
"My hand suddenly became demonic so it suddenly flew into your mouth, you bastard," I said with a laugh while shrugging my shoulders.
"Fuck you, you're really arrogant," Gunter shouted behind me.
I left the classroom with no emotion on my face. I saw the corner of Jess's lips rose up while looking at me. I just ignored him and kept walking.
It's your fault, Talliah. Why are you wearing that kind of clothes?
"Rai!"
Someone shouted behind my back causing me to stopped from walking. Leina was catching her breath when she stopped in front of me.
"I've been calling you for a while but you didn't hear me. You seem so pre-occupied. Are you okay?” she asked softly, making me smile.
I patted her head and smiled.
"I'm fine. Why are you running?” I asked with a frown.
"I was running to catch up with you, you walk so fast." she said with a sneer.
"Oh my gosh, Rai! What happened to your hand?" he asked in confusion while holding my bleeding right hand.
It was bleeding, why didn't I even feel it earlier? Is it because of my anger? Why am I angry that she's sexually harassed without her knowing? Did I care towards her?
Leina pulled me to the bench where we always hang out. The air here is very light so this spot is our favorite. Leina took out her first aid kit from her bag. I smiled when I saw that she was always carrying something like this.
Because she always gets injured or sometimes stumbles. She's so clumsy and vulnerable. I told her to bring first aid because we're not always together, so when I'm not there, she knows how to treat herself.
It's hard when you only depend on one person. What if she suddenly disappears? What will happen to you?
You'll be hurt because you are used to his presence.
I'm so proud of Leina because she can already do it on her own.
I gasped when the cotton with alcohol touched my skin.
"That's your fault. Why did you have this?” Leina said worriedly while treating my wound.
I looked at the soccer field and watched the players.
"I punched Gunter."
"What?! Are you sure?” she asked with wide eyes her voice raised a bit . I laughed because of her reaction.
"Rai, stop joking around. I know you don't know how to throw punches and you're not like that,"
"Psh, I don't know. I just made his rude mouth bleed. It's my first time, huh." I said laughing a bit. She looked at me curiously in the eyes.
Leina knows me so well. She knows when I am lying or not. She sighed when she saw that I was telling the truth.
"Why? Why did you punch him? The Rai I know has a lot of patience. The Rai I know is the most understanding and calmest of all. Were the Rai I know changed?”
I looked at the clear sky. Leina is right. It's not me. The Rai she knew had a lot of patience. I don't act recklessly. All the things I do I think carefully before I'll do it. I have a long patience and I am a calm person.
But why since I met her, did I suddenly change? I'm not slanderous but why is it happening now?
I don't want to do something that I will regret later but why can't I feel any remorse for punching Gunter. Maybe he just deserves it so bad. . . or is there another reason why I did not repent? I don't want to think that it's because of someone.

Talliah Eryn Castillego POV
I puffed my cigarette while looking at my baby's house. My heart hurt when I remembered what I saw earlier in the University.
But I laughed when my mind unconsciously recalled his shocked face, seeing me being their new temporary professor.
I waited for one week to see if some policeman would knock on my house and arrest me because he said the moment he get out from my hold he would put me in jail. I waited, but no one came to my house to arrest me. I wonder why my baby's mind changed.
I missed him so much that I made a way to see him every day.
My male friend is the owner of the school so it's easy for me to get in as their new professor. And the universe loves me so much because their Hydrology professor just filed for leave so I took over.
I didn't expect it to be this painful when you see in front of you that the man you love is hugging someone else. My heart broke when I saw how my man lovingly smiled at that girl.
They were so happy together while I was watching them, while I'm hurting inside while watching them.
Loving him from afar is the only thing I know, huh?
I'm so jealous right now. My heart is aching. Now, I want to see him. I want to kiss him, so that my jealousy would vanish.
It's already ten in the evening and I'm here in a quiet place near his house, waiting for him to come out. I texted him earlier but he still didn't come out.
I am here outside. In front of the fifth tree from your house.
I did not receive a reply.
I really want to see you. Please get out.
Still no reply. And because I'm quick to get irritated, I typed a text that I was sure that will made him go out.
You really don't want to go out? Okay, I'll knock on your door and introduce myself to your parents as your girlfriend. Wanna bet?
I put my cellphone in my leather jacket pocket with a smile. And I didn't make a mistake in strategy when I saw the bulk of my man approaching me.
There was no light in this part of the place, but because of the light coming from the moon, I could clearly see his eyebrows meeting and his angry eyes.
Why is he always mad?
"Hi, baby," I cutely waved my hand at him before throwing the cigarette to the side.
He scoffed and looked down at the cigarette I just throw before looking up at me.
"Why are you here? What do you need ... Prof.?” he asked sarcastically.
I walked closer to him and suddenly hugged him. I felt him stiffen because of what I did but he didn't push me away.
I quickly sniffed his neck. Why does he smell so good? I kissed his jaw and whispered.
"I miss you so bad. One week of not seeing you in person is like hell. It's a good thing I can always see your face inside my room,” I giggled.
I moved a little away from him and looked at his face. His eyebrows still furrowed when he looked at me.
"Go home, it's getting late," he ordered firmly. The veins in his neck were showing from restraint.
I look down only to see the white bandage on his right fist.
"What happened?" I asked him angrily.
He gave me an angry look, "Why are you angry?!"
"For fuck's sake! My baby is hurt. I have the right to get mad!” I shouted loudly making his eyes widen.
"You have no right to be angry because it's your fault!".
