After a moment, he disengaged, holding her, who seemed to be in a daze.
“Got it! Onda, your heart is beating fast…do you like me?” He asked while Agnes pushed him away from her.
“What do you think you’re doing?” Agnes glared.
“Me? Just experimenting with what she said,” he said, facing Onda and snapping his fingers at her.
“Uh?” she replied.
“I asked if you like me, Onda. Your heart was beating rapidly just now,” he said.
“I…I just…” she looked around.
“It probably did because you did that abruptly. She was caught off guard,” Agnes butted in.
“Oh really? Is that it?” Jade scratched his hair.
“Do you want her to like you? Do you like her?” Agnes said.
“I…I’m not sure. I do feel weird around her sometimes,” he smiled and went back to his seat.
“You’re the weird one here…sit, Onda,” Agnes tapped her.
“Ohh…oh yeah…” she said, taking her seat back.
“Are you okay?” Jade asked, and she nodded slowly.
“I must have really caught you off guard,” he smiled while she coughed, facing her food.
CLASHING LOVE: CHAPTER 41-50
ROOFTOP.
Kim sat on the rooftop, staring into space, probably thinking. What happened the other day replayed in her head—how a flower pot was thrown down at her from this very rooftop and how Jayden had taken the hit for her.
Now she’s even getting threatening notes and has no idea what to do. Jayden told her not to report, but somehow she feels this isn’t going to end soon.
And she feels like she’s being watched, too.
No matter what it is…she has to end it before it endangers any of them.
She sighs deeply when her phone starts ringing, bringing her out of her reverie.
It’s Jayden.
She ignores it, and it stops after some moments but then starts ringing again.
When it doesn’t seem like he’ll stop the incessant calling anytime soon, she has no choice but to pick it up.
? “What?” Her voice comes out blank.
? “Hey, why did you take so long to pick up the call? Are you in the toilet?” His voice comes from the other end.
? “If you’ve got nothing meaningful to say, then I’m hanging up.”
? “Hey, wait! Just…wait a sec,” he sighs.
? “I got discharged,” he announces.
? “Okay…”
? “Just…just okay?”
? “You’ve got anything else?”
? “Uhhh…Nothing is happening, right?”
? “You want anything to happen?”
? “No, I mean…um…forget it. It’s nothing.”
? “Then I’m hanging up.”
? “Wait! I…I um…I miss you, Kim,” he confesses, and silence creeps in.
? “Are you high?” Kim’s voice finally comes out.
? “Yeah, I am…see you after school…goodbye,” he says in a rush and ends the call.
Onda’s face beams with smiles as she hugs some music sheets to herself, heading to the music room.
These days she really feels happy and peaceful.
No Verna to get on her nerves. Jade and she are getting along pretty well, too. He even offered to give her some music lessons, and she’s on her way to meet him right now.
She pushed the door open, chuckling to herself after imagining some crazy ro.mantic scenarios happening between them while they were practicing.
“Come on, Onda…you’re only going for practice…just practice,” she sI.apped her cheeks and exhaled deeply before entering the music room with a smile.
“I-” Her legs froze, and her smile faded away when her eyes caught something completely unexpected.
Let me tell you what it is.
Right in front of her, Jade was busy making out with a girl. Instantly, feelings of hurt rushed down her spine, and she couldn’t help but feel betrayed.
