"Don't leave me, Mom" her words triggered a memory for Bryan, taking him back to the time when he was sick and all he wanted was his mother by his side. He had begged her in a similar way, "Please, Mom, stay by my side, don't leave me" but she had left the room to read a bedtime story to her adopted son, leaving Bryan alone with his sickness and nightmares. Now, hearing those words from the girl in front of him, reminded Bryan of his own pain, he looked at her pitiful face and said to Ronald, "You go back to the room, I'll stay here.""Aren't you the one who wanted to leave?" Ronald looked surprised by the words of Bryan until that moment he was annoyed and wanted to leave, but strangely he changed his mind.Bryan shook his head since he no longer sticks to his earlier intentions, "I've changed my mind, let me stay here till the morning."Ronald smiled understanding Bryan's heart, "then let's both stay here only," Bryan nodded, pulling a chair close to the bed, while Ronald took anot
Ronald's words made Bryan realize that he had slipped his tongue again, he glanced at Ronald and Mirabel, who were both looking at him curiously for the further answer from Bryan."I di...didn't mean it like that, what I mea...meant was... ummm," Bryan stammered, struggling to find the right words to fix his earlier mistake by slip of tongue, Mirabel stepped in to save him from being more embarrassed, "there's no need for me to lie to my savior, I'm telling the truth." She reached for her purse on the table, pulled out her student ID, and handed it to Bryan with a smile.Bryan and Ronald examined the student ID and confirmed that Mirabel was telling the truth, she goes to the same college as them, and more surprisingly, she was in the same department as Bryan."Let's take you back to college," Bryan offered to help, Mirabel quickly agreed and followed them, as they reached the college, Bryan advised, "Don't go out alone unless you know your way back, this place isn't as safe as it see
"Mr. John?" Bryan called out, when John answered hearing Bryan's voice, "young master!" Bryan continued confirming his identity, "Yes, it's me.""How are you, young master? Have you settled well in campus?" John asked, being concerned about Bryan settling in the campus since he did everything by himself with none to help him.Bryan reassured him along with being hesitant to talk about another matter, "Everything's fine, actually I called you to ask about something at home."John smiled understanding Bryan's hesitation, "What is it, young master? You can ask me anything, I'll try my best in giving an answer that satisfies you."Taking a deep breath, Bryan asked not hesitating anymore, "Is everything alright at home? Has anything strange happened since I left?"John was puzzled by Bryan's question as his question isn't that easy for John to understand quickly, "I don't know what you're referring to, young master, but something unusual did happen yesterday, I don't know if this is what y
Ronald remarked, watching Bryan who has been smiling while holding his mobile, "Looks like you're in a good mood!""Yeah, I am, let's go grab something to eat, I'm starving because I'm so happy," Bryan replied still not being able to control his happiness, making Ronald chuckle, "what kind of logic is that? How is happiness and hunger connected, dude?"Bryan rolled his eyes, "You wouldn't understand even if I explained it," Ronald was puzzled by Bryan's fluctuating moods, being happy one moment and disturbed in the next moment, but he was relieved to see Bryan in a good mood now, "fine, give me five minutes, I'll get dressed up and come." Meanwhile, at home, Josephine, Nancy, Mia, and Stacy were worried about Jake, who hadn't eaten anything since the previous night, Josephine sighed at her husband actions, "I don't understand why your father had to be so harsh with Jake, why does he treat that kind child so poorly? I fought a lot last night, but your father isn't ready to listen at a
Stacy couldn't believe what she was witnessing, the scene before her made her rethink all the previous memories where Bryan had been blamed and punished, despite his pleading about being innocent and getting framed, she now suspected that Bryan might have been innocent all along, merely a scapegoat used by Jake to stable his position, "oh my goodness! So Bryan was never lying when he said he was innocent and getting framed for things he has never done, why didn't I ever think about this?" Deciding she wasn't ready to confront Jake yet, since she knew there's no way Jake would be saying the truth even if she confronts him now, Stacy started to leave, however, she saw Josephine approaching and quickly hid, not wanting either Jake or Josephine to know she had been there the entire time and witnessed everything.When Josephine entered Jake's room, Stacy hesitated whether to leave or not, however being curious to know more, she decided to stay and eavesdrop.As soon as he heard his mother
Stacy's heart pounded crazily as she stood frozen in that moment being caught eavesdropping, Nancy, who had come to see Jake, noticed Stacy standing there, even Jake and Josephine also paused their conversation and looked at Stacy who had been standing right outside the room."Stacy," Josephine looked at her, Stacy smiled awkwardly covering the embarrassment being caught eavesdropping at this age, "Yes, mom."Nancy, glancing at Stacy, asked not being able to understand what Stacy has been doing near Jake's room when she clearly remembered Stacy going to her room, "What are you doing here, standing outside the room? I thought you went back to your room after our conversation in the living room," Stacy quickly calmed herself, hiding her nervousness, lying effortlessly, "I was here to talk with Jake, but mom was already talking to him, so I was waiting for their conversation to end, that's all.""There's no need for you to wait outside, come in," Josephine invited with a smile, just when
Bryan started his university life aiming for a peaceful, low-key existence, he is determined to just have an undisturbed life, clear of any unnecessary trouble and wants to solely focus on his studies.Every day, Bryan followed the same routine, classes and part-time jobs were his daily routine, when he arrived at the classroom as usual, Mirabel started waving at him energetically. This had become their daily routine for the past week, Bryan couldn’t believe how quickly the week had passed, but Mirabel’s enthusiastic greeting remained the same.As usual, Bryan ignored her wave lowering his head and hurriedly took a seat nearby, however, unlike the other days, Mirabel walked straight over to him and sat down beside him, Bryan was taken aback by her sudden move, aware of the curious glances from their classmates, "What do you think you're doing?" He is truly bewildered at that moment."I'm sitting right beside you," Mirabel responded with a proud smile not caring about anyone, Bryan sig
Bryan lifted his head and saw the principal standing before him even Ronald, who had just arrived along with the principal oblivious to what was happening, noticed Bryan's injuries and rushed over to him being concerned, "Bryan, what happened, dude? How did you get these injuries?"Bryan remained silent, unsure how he ended up in this situation, he had never intended for this to happen, but those bullies had dragged him into their mess, he was annoyed and frustrated. Sensing his silence, Nick began his facade, "Sir, we were just trying to be friends with him, requesting him to share his experience, but just because he's a topper, he's showing an attitude and beating us up.""If Bryan is beating you, why is he the one being held back by security and other students?" Ronald's question caught them off guard, exposing their lie but Ronald is too innocent to understand that even if he is speaking truth, the weightage of their lie is high, Luke then intervened covering it up, "It's because
