One Roof With Five Hot Jerks

Alyn’s Point of View

I was about to walk towards the paper when my head suddenly ached. The fuck? I even closed my eyes and touched my temple because of the pain. As I closed my eyes, a vague image appeared in my head. The image showed Maxine crawling under my blanket.

The hell. What’s wrong with me? I was okay just a minute ago so why did my head hurt suddenly?

Did I drink alcohol last night? But I don’t remember drinking or going to the bar. Therefore, why do I feel like I have a hangover? Oh, damn it.

I forced myself to walk even if it’s hard for me. The surrounding seemed to be shaking, man. Damn, maybe it’s not my head that’s the problem? Maybe there’s an earthquake that’s why this is happening to me.

“Damn it,” I cursed to myself.

When I couldn’t take the headache anymore I just crawled. When I finally got closer to the paper, I immediately took it and rested my back at the door.

I breathe out heavily before I open the folded paper, “Maybe this paper is cursed. Fuck.” I mumbled.

So as I opened the paper, my brows automatically converged. And as soon as I’m done reading the thing written on it, I immediately stood up and ran out of my room even though my head was still the same.

“I won’t name myself anymore because I know you would recognize my handwriting instantly. I’d like to thank you for making me happy even in just a short time. My smiles and laughter when I was with you were real and so my feelings towards you. My feelings didn’t change until now. I still love you and I will keep on loving you.”

I went in front of her room. I knocked on her door multiple times while panting and trembling in fear.

“Last night was fantastic to me. Sorry if I did something that I shouldn’t have done. I know that you have forgotten about what happened last night because I forced you to drink a drug. However, I didn’t regret doing it with you even though you will forget about it once you wake up.”Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

When there was no response, I immediately went downstairs. I looked around the whole living room but no one was in there. Fuck, where are they?

“I know you’re asking yourself right now what is the purpose of this letter. Well, I’d like to say that… Forget about me. Forget about the crazy and worthless love. Maybe there you will find someone suitable for you. Forget about me and live your life. Don’t think about me anymore.”

I searched the whole mansion but I saw no one. There was only me inside the mansion.

I ran to the garage and thank God my car was in there. I hurried there and started the engine. I was about to get out of the gate when I stopped. I… I don’t know where to go.

“I’m happy to be where I am now and I’m also happy that Elaine came back for you. I wish you both happiness. I really mean it.

Do you know the feeling when you like someone on a TV drama? For instance, I like the second lead in the drama. Because I like him, I want him to end up with the protagonist woman who he has feelings for because he really loves her. It’s the same of what I am feeling right now, I want you to end up with someone you really love.

Don’t cry, stay healthy and live happily otherwise I would regret leaving you.

Sorry, if this is my only way to talk to you. I just couldn’t talk to you personally for the reason that I don’t want to shred tears in front of you.

Thank you for everything, Alyn, my one and only king of the Monkeys. I enjoyed living with you and your cousins, especially my days with you.

We wouldn’t meet each other again. So, promise me to fill your heart with love.”

I don’t fucking know where to find her! Fuck! Fuck! Please, tell me that it’s just a dream- all of this! Damn, please… Please, not Maxine. Damn… I can’t.

She said to fill my heart with love. But how could I do that if she left me behind? I said yesterday, when I woke up I would definitely talk to her. But how could I if she’s nowhere around anymore? Would things have changed if I had talked to her last night? If… If I did that, won’t she leave me anymore? Haa, fuck.

I punch the steering wheel several times while my tears are constantly falling from my eyes. I can’t control them. I can’t stop them. And I don’t want to put an end to them, either.

Damn. It hurts. It hurts a lot that I could die. Why did she have to leave me? Why? Why? For fuck’s sake, why?!

And my four cousins, I know they knew about this. They knew but still didn’t tell me! They all worked up against me. Damn… I told them what really happened between Maxine and I but why did they still want Maxine to leave me?

Man… I don’t think I can continue living without her.

Maxine, please… Please, come back to me. Maxine… My Maxine. Please, tell me all of this is just a dream.

Maxine’s Point of View

I have decided last week that if ever I meet my parents, I will come back to live with them. I know that my decision is selfish but I don’t want to burden GH and others anymore. And I also thought that it might be a good decision to put an end between I and Alyn’s relationship.

I couldn’t talk to him personally because I was afraid that I might fail my plan if I were to talk to him. Hence, I just left him a letter and wrote everything I would like to say.

I know what I have done was extremely stupid and unforgivable. I slept with him and drugged him before I left him. However, I didn’t regret all that. In fact, I’m happy because I could help him and Elaine.

Mom and Dad said that they will transfer me to another school, so I wouldn’t see any of them anymore. This is really a goodbye for us.

We left the mansion at 2:30 AM. GH and his grandsons, except Alyn, insisted on escorting us. My parents did not refuse because they are grateful to them for taking good care of me. I am too.

It was exactly 4:56 AM when we arrived at our destination. I said goodbye to GH and to others before watching them leave with their car.

I licked my lower lip, took a deep breath before I turned to my family waiting for me to get inside with them. I smiled at them and we walked in all together.

Angela’s Point of View

I have been waiting for Maxine but she’s still not here. My gosh, we’re going to be late if she doesn’t arrive now. Damn. Where is she? This is the first time I have waited for her this long. My feet are getting tired, my gosh.

“Hey,” someone poked my side.

I turned to it, “Oh, Ferries?”

She rolled her eyes. She put her arms over her chest and stood equally to me, “She’s not here yet?”

I pouted, “Yep. Do you think she won’t come?”

She shrugged, “Let’s go in. Just wait for her in your classroom, you’re classmates after all,” she uttered.

I nodded, “Okay, let’s go~”

I was smiling the whole time but when the professor arrived my smile faded. I looked at Maxine’s table. She’s not there.

The professor put down her books on the table that caught my attention. She looked around the classroom and after a while, she cleared her throat.

“Ehem- If you didn’t know yet, Maxine Wards transferred to the other school just this morning,” the prof said, which stunned me.

Maxine did… What?
