Trouble in Paradise (BrightWin Fanfic)

BRIGHT'S POV

People kept asking me if I was alright when I came back to school, I am clearly not, but of course I wouldn't say that. There's no one who admits that they aren't fine anyway. I got busy with a lot of school works which I am actually thankful for, even though my blockmates are already cursing the professors. 

I spent most of the time alone, I tell my friends that I have errands to run and fix because we'd be flying abroad for the weekend. To be honest, I just really enjoy doing nothing and just staring blankly into the walls. Sometimes I think about everything... sometimes I don't even think at all. 

I went home straight from my class and just stared at my ceiling... My head was empty like usual, the thought of why my family is falling apart kept haunting me but there's no one else to blame but my dad. It was him who made all of this happen, he was the one who let every bad thing happen to our perfect family... 

After maybe an hour of staring, I decided to get up and pull my laptop out to check on the little research that I had going on... I was trying to find out several ways we can actually wake Ton up or something to make her life a little better than now. 

"Hey... Bright?" Namtan called from outside the door. 

"Kinda busy" I said. 

She still went inside and checked on what I was doing. 

"Nobody said you shifted courses" She said and sat on the bed behind me. 

"I just want to know if there's a possibility waking her up." I said reading through some articles. 

"Bright..." She said and I didn't bother looking back. 

"Bright... you have to trust Ton with this one, she's a fighter, she'll make it. Stop stressing your self because of it." She told me. 

"What if I take an exam to med school after my course?" I blurted out. 

"Bright, if this about Ton----"I cut her off. 

"It's not about Ton, Dad would have hated the fact that I neglected every single thing about the business field, I'd be opposing to him. I'd be able to get back at him." I said filling up with my rage. 

Namtan was quiet for a while and then I heard her sigh. 

"Finish as much schoolwork as you can. Also, your phone has been vibrating." She said placing the phone on my desk before leaving. 

I sighed when she left and looked at my phone. It was Win. I wanted to be alone but I said yes to him to a lot things, plus, he's also going through so much already, plus, he's the only one who understands what is really going on inside my head.
