C70 Chapter 69

Sometimes I talk to Mom about moving us to another house and she just stays in and out of being a butler, but she doesn't want to.

I would also like to suggest to Mom that she just transfer me to school, in total we will save money somehow. It's just embarrassing for Mr. and Mrs. Steinfield because until now they are still teaching me.

I don't want them to think that I don't owe them anything or that I'm proud of them so I don't want to support them that's the last thing I want if that happens, they are angry with me. My mother and I still owe them a lot. Because of them I was able to study in a good school and have a nice best friend, Ciffer.

Also, Mom's salary might not be enough if we move out, because we will rent a house and buy food and household necessities. Mom and I only brought our clothes when she decided to go to the City.

I've gotten used to it in the mansion. I'm used to always being around Trigger and I'll never let him out of my sight, ever. I also can't imagine not having Trigger around me all the time, as if I was thinking about it, I feel a lot of sadness and a heavy feeling in my heart.

"Trigger are you listening?" I answered him angrily. We're on a trip now and he's focused on driving but I'm sure he can hear me. I was talking to Ciffer and I asked someone else if he was 'okay' but I just looked like a fool word for word here because he wasn't listening. It was right that the light turned red so this time he turned to look at me.

"What?" He didn't ask me any questions. I frowned at him and then crossed my arms over my chest. And because I was looking at his face, I couldn't escape the look of his big eyes as if I had done something surprising, and the successive waves of his Adams apple, but after a while he also avoided it. he looked at me.

My forehead continued to frown and I looked at my chest, I was wearing an off-shoulders that looked more like a tube cocktail dress because the sleeve was also loose on my arm. My push up is also the build-in brassier, so my breasts are emphasized even more.

I don't know why but both of my cheeks immediately warmed up. And for the very first time I was suddenly aware of Trigger's presence. Good thing he's not looking at me anymore, but maybe I'm even more restless here where I'm sitting. What's this weird feeling about Trigger? Why is my heart beating so fast? Maybe it's not the love that Ciffer often tells me about, right?

I've been really weirded out by what's happening. I just can't tell Ciffer because it seems like she can only sit for a minute when my man immediately approaches her to ask her to dance. Sigh. It's been three hours since our promenade started and I don't know if today is the day that I will suddenly transform into being invisible. Urgh! So no one notices me.

I feel like my stomach is already flat sitting here and it will be midnight in thirty minutes, which also means that the prom will be over. Son of tofu! No one even danced with me! It's my first time to attend. What kind of promenade experience is this for me? Disaster. nightmare

My shoulders dropped when the MC announced that it was only ten minutes and he was going to announce who the Prom King and Queen of the night was. There are no candidates but there is voting, you can vote for anyone and my chance to win.

And I've been hearing Ciffer's name that they voted as Prom Queen. Why not? Ciffer is really beautiful today in her off-shoulders gown in itm color. He used to be very elegant and I won't wonder why. Ciffer's mom is a fashion designer and she always told me that when she goes to college, she will also study fashion designing.

"Nicole." I turned my attention to Trigger when he called me. He folded his arms and just looked straight at me - is it like there's no one else here now but just the two of us.

"Oh?" I didn't want to answer him. This man is still good enough to dance with him, but it's a baby! Everything was rejected, maybe if I was in his place, I would just go ahead. Our MAPEH teacher also said that there are ten points for every man who wants to dance with us. And not even a single one invited me! My quizzes have been low lately! Annoying!

"Let's go outside." He said to me and then he stood up from sitting. It didn't escape my eyes that he grabbed the attention of the girls around us, the rest of him was even my dance partner who was still looking at Trigger. What is that!

"But nothing yet –" And before I could finish what I was going to say, he took one of the hands that was resting on my lap and without any effort he pulled me to stand up from where I was sitting. And because I didn't expect that, I fell into his chest.

Immediately if you smell the masculine perfume he will love along with his natural smell and here is your heart if it suddenly disappears inside my ribcage. What's going on with you Miss Heart? That's just Trigger! There is nothing special about that man!

But as I slowly looked up at him and our eyes immediately met, it was as if my world was slowly spinning. My what's wrong inside my stomach that I don't understand but I feel tickled, like I'm thrilled. Do I like Trigger?
