The Juice is Worth the Squeezed

Chapter 27-I Won't Break This Trust

Eight months after...

Methel POV

"Yes Mom, I'm fine, don't worry about me," I told my mom while talking to her on the phone, "Oh mom, I missed you too, I hope I'll see the both of you soon, really soon."

And then the call got cut, realizing that the load was already up. I got out of the telephone booth and stretched my body on the morning air. I'm currently on my way to school when I suddenly remember that I randomly miss my parents, they are still on the country side and I'm still living alone on our house to continue my studies at the Marshall.

I continuing my studies in that school because I promised my mom and my dad that I won't stop, that I will try my best to finished on that school, and now that I'm a senior already, I see myself getting on a good University on my college even though its hard for me sometimes, because every time I go from one place to another inside the Marshall, memories of Geoffrey floods my mind and I can only take so much.

I am still working at the Coffee shop; God knows if I lose that job, I lose my allowance. To help my mother to buy my father's medicine, I even got an extra job. I deliver fresh milk and newspapers to this upper class community not far from school in the morning, I study right after the delivery and after school I work in the Coffee Shop, so it all works out for me.

I didn't even notice that I already entered the huge gates of my school and for a moment, I admired this beautiful place for a thousandth time and I'll sure miss it when I graduate at the end of the year.

Talking about graduation, only Phillip and Josh had graduated here on Marshall last year, T.J. stayed with Geoffrey at the states and talking about the gray eyed idiot... when I left him that night, I never talked to him since and I think it's better that way, though I am dying to see him and to be with him again, I guess, we were never meant for each other anyways.

"Hey Methel!" I heard that annoying voice once again.

You see, for this past two months since the school started, this guy named Robb have been following me around the campus like a bee to a flower. At lunch he'll follow me on the garden and I was tempted one time to go the play room just to get rid of him and it was one of those moments that I wish the F4 are here. I mean with one serious warning from Josh, another from Tristan, one intimidating look from Phillip and the presence of Geoffrey are enough to get rid of the guy. I mean he is not that bad, actually, he is really funny and persistent.

I turned around to see the blond hair of Robb flapping on the air. He got this look on his face that he always has good news to share and for a moment, I missed Geoffrey's blond hair too, sometimes, the young kid reminds me of the gray eyed idiot.

"Hey Robb, good morning," I greeted him.

Robb is a sophomore student and he told me that the first time he saw me, is when I got out of our old car back at the first day of my junior year here on the Marshall and he wanted to talked to me ever since.

"Hi Methel," he said giving me a quick embraced which of course I did not return, "how was your weekend?"

"Oh it's fine, you?" I asked him, "how's your trip with your dad?"

"It was fine," he replied.

Robb, just like everyone else, except me of course is a well brought up boy. His dad took him in a two days trip out of the country. I'll tell you, he is really a cute guy, like a little brother that I always wanted (though he's way taller than me so he is not so little too) and I know what you're thinking; me having an affair with a young boy one year my senior but no... it's not like that!
