Clara's POV

Ever since I was a kid, I've felt like something was off. No matter how much I won, admired, or feared. There wasn't a single thing that truly made me happy. Nothing.

I looked at his eyes, his dark crimson eyes. I've never seen someone like him. He's too perfect to be real.

"What do you want?" He asked coldly, nakatitig lang ito sa akin. I cleared my throat while I kept my gaze on him.

"Luke, I want you to join the council. Be my Vice-president." I offered him.

He stood up. I got a clear view of his features. An intimidating height. Broad shoulders. Perfect jaw and lips. Pointed nose and pitch black hair. Parang mabubulag kana sa sobrang pagkaitim ng buhok niya. Kumunot ang noo ko.

"Is that even possible? How could be someone can be this perfect?" I thought.

"Tsk." He hissed while looking straight into my eyes. "Hindi ako interesado." He said, calmly.

"Bakit naman? Hindi mo pa naman-" Natigilan ako sa pagsasalita ng bigla n'yang hawiin ang buhok niya then he scratched the back of his head while looking at his right side. He sighed.

"Wala akong oras sa gantong bagay. Sorry." He answered. Kumunot ang noo ko sa sinagot niya sa akin.

I knew it.

"Do you mean to say you are refusing an offer from me, the student council president?" I emphasized the word president pero parang wala lang sa kanya.

He's not even affected.

"Yeah, besides I don't really care whoever you are." Fuck you.

I hate his guts. Talagang pinapakita niya na wala siyang pake sa mga sinasabi ko. How could he?!

"And why is that? I'm sure you know all of the perks that come with being a member of my council. So why? Are you afraid?" I explained, he yawned.

What... the heck?!

"Hindi ako interesado, sayo." He looked straight to my eyes.

He really emphasized the word 'sayo'. What the fuck is wrong with this guy?!

"You know, I really love people like you. People I simply can't comprehend." I smiled at him, he looked at me blankly.

"Thank you." A cold-hearted person.

"I'll say it once more. Join the student council, Luke." I offered, again.

He smiled, bago siya naglakad malapit sa pinto. He looked back, his wicked smile was plastered on his angelic face.

"Goodbye." He said and left me dumbfounded.

That's it? Damn it! What the hell is that? I sighed. He's so much more than I imagined. I hate his attitude, tingnan lang natin kung hanggang saan ka tatagal. Let me remind you. You'll be mine sooner or later.

I quickly lifted my chin up when I heard someone's knocking. Who the fuck is that? Oh, God. I almost forgot na may appointment pa pala ako sa iba.
