I groaned when I heard my alarm sound. I slowly got up and changed clothes to go to school.
I walked downstairs and saw the black school bag and school supplies were already on the table.
“Who got all this stuff for me?” I said in my heart.
"I hope you like this stuff." Denice appeared suddenly and almost surprised me.
"Yes that's good. Thanks." I talk to groggy.
I looked at the clock in my hand, and realized that I had to leave immediately.
"Hopefully have a nice day." Denice smiled warmly as she waved her hand
“You too.” I replied to Denice's hand in response.
“How can a woman as good as Denice get stuck with those two cold men?” My inner.

After a long journey, until I am at school. I walked to the locker before
stopped by the hand of someone covering both my eyes from behind.
"Guess who?" That guy snickered wickedly.
"Mmm, I don't know." Reply cynical.
In fact, I know someone who is behind me.
"This is your best friend." He let go of his hand in an annoyed tone.
"Hi Olivia." My husband before hugging her.
"Hey." She cheered happily while hugging me.
"It's been one crazy weekend." I muttered, resting my head on his shoulder.
“Tell me at lunch.” he said curiously.
We walked down the hallway to class talking about anything and everything stopped when Olivia whispered something to me.
"Blake is watching you." Whisper Olivia, stop our conversation.
"No, he didn't notice me." My whisper panicked slightly before glancing towards Blake and almost making eye contact with him.
Blake was one of my best friends when I was a kid. He's been gone for a few years and only returned this year. The current Blake looks different from the previous one. He's not skinny anymore.
“She's captain of football apparently.” My inner.
Blake is tall and muscular, his hair black thick and silky, with his eyes dark brown.
"Sophy." I heard a heavy voice calling me.
I sighed hesitantly as I looked at the indistinctly smiling Olivia.
"Hi." I smiled as I turned around.
"Hey." Reply Blake beamed.
"I know we haven't really spoken since I got back, but I wonder if you want to come to my game tonight?" He asked, looking very hopeful
.
I really don't want to disappoint him, he looks very happy.
"okay." I answered with a warm smile.
"good. See you soon." He grinned before running back to his friends in the field.
I heard them all cheering when Blake returned to the field smiling like an idiot.
"See how much he likes you, and he's very attractive." Olivia nudged me, trying to persuade me.
"I'm not interested. For the moment." Reply relax.
"You can't close your eyes to every man just because you're afraid of getting hurt, just try it with him, for my sake." Olivia pouted while pleading with me.
"All right." I shook my head while grinning.
If Ace can be with another woman, why can't I be with another man?
****
"I'll come with you to the field, of course I have to see my girlfriend play." Said Olivia who appeared all of a sudden.
He's talking about his girlfriend Ryder.
"You're very considerate." I teased him as we walked through the school door.
We sat on the spectator bench.
"Diaz, I heard you're here for Blake." Canda Ryder kisses Olivia's lips
"Yes, I said I'd come watch him play." I retaliated with potluck.
"He's very excited." Ryder grinned while raising her eyebrows.
I rolled my eyes while sneering.
"Good luck dear." Shouting Olivia.
Ryder blows a kiss at him as he runs back to the field. Sometimes they make me want to vomit.
"You're coming?" Blake smiled at me, approaching me to the bleachers .
"Yes, I don't think it's bad to come." I nodded at him.
"I'm glad to hear it. I have to get back to the field." He ran towards Ryder who was already in his position .
My phone suddenly rang, and when I checked a lot of messages came in.
"Where are you."
"Go home now."
"School ended an hour ago."
"Hurry over."
"Alright, I'll come to pick you up."
“Why should I get this now?” I'm lirih.
"Dam." I frantically took my bag from under the chair. Then I saw him, Ace. He walked towards the bleachers and I could have sworn I saw flames in both eyes.
"Gosh my god." Olivia's jaw gaped as she looked at Ace.
"I know she's very sexy. Now shut the fuck up." My fizzle to Olivia.
"Where have you been?" Ace yelled at me, attracting the attention of everyone on the bleachers.
"I'm here, not anywhere." I said quietly, afraid to speak because he looked so angry.
The entire football team stopped playing because of the sound of Ace.
"We have to go home now." Demand Ace. His voice was full of anger as he stood at the bottom of the bench.
I walked to Ace. I walked beside him as we left.
"Sophyia?" I heard Blake calling me.
I saw Ace's face become even more angry than before.
"Where are you going?" Blake grabbed my arm.
I flinched and turned to Ace who was now focusing on Blake.
"Did I say you can touch it?" Ace growled at Blake.
"You shouldn't have to say if I could touch her." Blake snapped back at Ace.
Ace is taller and more muscular than Blake.
"Blake, I'm fine I promise." I muttered softly while standing beside Ace.
“And I beg you not to hurt Blake.” Pinta I turned to Ace by clenching both of my hands on the chest.
I was hoping Blake would turn around and leave but he didn't.
“Let go of her hands before you regret." Ace warned Blake in a very cold tone.
“What if I...." Blake's speech was stopped by Ace's fist thrust into his jaw.
I was shocked by Ace's sudden outburst of anger.
Blake was lying on the floor, with blood coming out of his mouth and nose.
I was horrified when I saw Blake lying unconscious and not opening her eyes. One hit from Ace caused a lot of damage to Blake.
"Fuck." Ace said, still clenching his fists.
He turned towards me. I flinched, thinking that I was Ace's next target of anger. But I don't feel anything.
Ace just looked at me with an unreadable look.
"Get in the fucking car." His grunts were ruthless, clearly unconcerned with the splashy cheers behind him.
I ran towards the car and sat in the front seat with Ace.

"Why are you protecting her huh!?" Ace's heavy voice asked me.
I glanced at him before turning my attention to my hand.
He held my hand to stop moving.
"My answer!" His impact. Ace looks very angry.
"There's no excuse." I answered without a tone as I looked at her hand that was still in my hand.
Ace was silent and said nothing.
"You're lying." He finally spoke up.
"I'll find out what happened to you." He muttered with a firm tone.
"Why do you care?" I said while glancing at him.
Ace raised his eyebrows towards me. He raised his hand into the air wanting to give me a punch and I flinched.
Ace's hand stopped in mid-air.
"Suckhead." Whisper me while staring out the window looking at the passing cars.
"You should know if you're going to marry me, so I won't hit you." He made a sound as if he had been holding it since our conversation.
He knows exactly what's wrong with me, he just wants to hear me say it.
I just kept quiet hearing Ace say
"I don't hit women, especially someone who's going to be my wife." He's cleared his throat.
I don't recognize this man and he's the one who's gonna be my husband.
I don't care about his words. He just needs to prove it through his actions.
