Kara's P.O.V

If you ask me, Im not happy.


Xian and King text me a week ago. To delete their number and forget that I know them.
That makes me so heartbroken that I tried contacting them.
I, atleast, want to know why I am being hated.
But the number cannot go through. They block me.

Not only at the phone but in the world.
A world where I can see them yet I cant be beside them.
I dont know what I did wrong.
But, that's the end of our playing 'friends', I guess.

I know I should be happy that I atleast become part of their world for a bit.
Yet Im not really happy.

Even at school, Xian doesnt even calls my name anymore nor look at me.
Like a plague that needs to be avoided.

I bit my lower lip.

"Cheer up." A guy I didnt expected to talk to me did.

"Stephen?" You are still around? Didnt you died from chapter 1?

"Why do you look so shock? Im pretty famous around here you know." He pouts and gives me a cold soda can.

"Y-y-you are being kind to me?" Not to mention being kind, Stephen always treats me like air back in my past life.

"Well...You look depress. I thought I should share my positivitiness."

"Haha."

"Where is your friend? You should talk to your friend if you are feeling down."

"You know I have a friend?!"

"Dumb idiot! Is there anyone who doesnt have a friend?" He shake his head and open the canned soda in his hand and drink it.

Looking closely.
Stephen is really cute.
At least I do know how to pick goodlooks back then.

"What are you staring at?" He frowns.

"You look really clean and neat. No wonder I like you back in Elementary." I said nodding.

He shows disdain and knock my head.
Its not that painful but why?

"So Are you fewling better?" He ask.

Suprisingly, yes.

"What will you do if you think people are shits then you like them eventually then they hate you in the end?"

"The Fuck?"

"I mean hypothetically speaking."

"You always got yourself rejected. Are you the goddess of misfortune?" He laughs lightly.

I pout and frowns.
"Hypothetically speaking!"

"Fine. Fine. Whatelse can you do? Try your best to win them back. If you cant.....Focus on the people who stays with you."

"Wow." I feel silent and look up the sky.

"What?"

"I dont expect a sensible reply from the likes of you."

"What do you mean? The likes of me trying to comfort you really is a wasted effort." He stands up.

"But thank you anyways. You are a bit right."

"You will die if you wont insult me dont you? Fine! See you when I see you."

"Bye."

I smile a little.
Focus on the people who stays.
That is true.
But..
King and Xian are not just any people.

Ring...

"Kara, your mother collapse."

I look at my phone with worry.

November 20.

In my past life, I also receive a call saying mom collapse.
Wait. No.
In this life she is not overworking!
She is very healthy!

No.
She wont die right?
She wont right?
What if...what if whatever she does everything will be the same?
Isnt King and Xian distancing theirselves to her now?
Now her mother collapse?
Will she be in the hospital again when she gets in 2nd year?
Then Almonde will come pick her and....

"Careful!"

Kara looks at the handsome frowning face of Xian.
No.
She close her eyes.
She cant delude herself in dreaming.
She have to go to the hospital and...and...

"Kara, hey, open your eyes. What is wrong?" Xian ask in a worried voice.
What is this girl thinking?
She always looks distant cold and quiet that his heart wants to come and hug her but he needs to endure.

"Sir? Sir Leonard?"

"You already know my name and you still call me Sir Leonard?"
Xian angrily raise a brow.

Kara's eyes seems there is a filter in it that she cant see him thoroughly.
She avoid eye contact.
"Why are you? Go away." She weakly said pushing Xian with little strenght left to her.

"Hey. Hear me out okay. It is not like I hate you...But things are different now.. And The Boss..Just tell me whats troubling you." Xian almost grab his hair in frustration but he patiently explain.

Kara is still safeguard in Xian's embrace but Kara is not shy nor happy.

"Let me go..I need to go...hospital.."

"There's another person in your family who needs to go to the hospital? I say, arent your family a bit accident prone?"

"No.Mom..She collapse...I dont know.. I cant understand what the nurse is saying. Mom must be suffering. I wont let her die."

"Hey. Calm down. Collapsing and dying are two different things. I will drive you there."

"No. You...You hate..."

"Listen, look at my eyes. I am Xian. Im your friend."

"Friend? You want to cut ties with me!" Kara punch Xian's chest angrily.

Xian grab her hand and sigh.
"Its temporary. Once the Boss takes you in, I will never leave you again."

Kara looks at Xian.
"Liar."

Xian doesnt know whether to laugh or cry.
Since when did he have to coax someone.
He rubs Kara's head gently and embrace her closely.
"Yes. I am a Liar. But I dont Lie to you."

"You lied again."

Xian laughs a bit.



"Mom! MOM! MOM!" Kara hugs Katherine tightly.

"Oh baby, Im sorry. Mom...Mom is such a sinful person." Then she cried.

Kara is stunned.
She looks around.
Richard looks down and avoid looking at her.

She looks at Xian.
Xian nods and grab her hand tightly giving her support.

Finally, Kara looks at the doctor.

"She's pregnant." He said nonchalantly and left before he gets involve in the drama.

Kara stares at the reddened Richard then to the pitiful sobbing Katherine.
Then she cried out loud.

Katherine and Richard panics and they coax Kara immediately.
Only Xian knows that Kara is not upset that there is a new baby. She is just terribly happy that Katherine doesnt have to die.
