Chapter 3

I just kept quiet all day, no one dared to talked to me except Psalm. Every time I meet him he always smiles at me, but I do not reciprocate his smiles. I don't really need  to have a friend, as Saint said. What went through my mind and I agreed to be friends with Psalm?

This afternoon we were all in the quadrangle because the club we wanted to join was already choosing us. For the whole semester there, I decided to pick a boring club so that there was nothing to do. Journalism Club only becomes active when there are school activities to make school papers.

I am now standing at the door where the Journalism Club is located. Saint wouldn't be mad right? Because he will also choose his club. I entered the room and I could clearly see the smile on the faces of the people there.

"Finally! After three years, there was also interest in our Club." Happy voice lof a woman with short hair.

There were only six of them in that room. "Hi! Do you want to join our club?" The woman who was a little older than me asked.

"Ah yes, I like a club that doesn't do much." I said.

"Fortunately, almost all the students here do not want the club to be boring." Smiling, a man said as if his hair had not been combed.

They are four boys and two girls. Are they really that small? "Anyway, just fill it up here. I'll give the adviser a copy of the other one."

I followed their wishes and filled up on two papers. They hid a copy and gave me one.

"Wait. Are you Danica Sy?" Shocked question by the cheeky eyes man. I nodded.

"Woah that's right I heard, you're beautiful. ㅡ" the woman with short hair immediately punched him.

"I'm sorry about that. I'm Odette Smith. I'm a first year college student and I've been loyal to our club since junior high." I nodded to her and accepted her hand. Journalism was also her club in high school?

The woman with short hair approached me and introduced herself. "I'm Cassidy Grace Gomez. I'm a senior high student."

"I'm Eren Lee." Smiling said the man who told me nice earlier.

"Pierce Calvin Jimenez." Another man  said.

"Lorence Rivera."

"And I'm Constantine Furrer or Stan." I smiled at them all.

"I'm Danica Sy. Nice to meet you all." I said and  they all smiled at me too.

Lorence made me sit in the empty seat next to Cassidy. We are talking about activities to do for the whole semester. This club isn't bad.

"Danica do you know that Odette likes Rozen. Don't you know that?" I immediately looked at Odette who was now blushing.

"What are you doing, Rence! You know Rozen's girlfriend is Danica." I was almost taken aback by what Cassidy said.

"He's not my boyfriend, we are just childhood friends." I immediately said, they were all 'o' and nodded.

"Then no one will be angry if I court you?" I was just stunned by what Eren said, Stan immediately whispered something to him that immediately lost the smile on Eren's lips.

"Sorry, I understand why you don't want to." They all just shook hands with Eren.

"Danica, don't come near Eren, he wants to court everyone and no one chooses him." Pierce's teasing. So they all laughed in that room.

I couldn't help but laugh. Saint will think as them as my co-club members, but for me they are already my friends.

When I got home, I went straight to the parking lot to wait for Saint. But I was immediately surprised when Psalm suddenly appeared everywhere.

I was immediately nervous, Saint might see him!

"You, I'm going to sulk. You didn't pay attention to me before. Are you mad at me?" He suddenly asked and I was immediately shaken.

"Why should I be angry with you?" I asked him.

"You don't pay attention to me anymore. You're really mad at me." He insisted, I just laughed because he was cute.

"Nothing, I'm not mad at you." I said.

"Why are you ignoring me, then?" He asked again . Saint might get angry if he caught us!

"I'm ashamed of you in public, maybe some students here might think something horrible" That's all I said, Psalm laughed and I was surprised when he suddenly squeezed one of my cheeks.

"You're cute. All right, if you're not really mad at me I'll invite you to roam this Saturday." He said with a smile. My eyes widened, is he asking me on a date?

"But not ㅡ" he cut me off. "Nah-ah, it's forbidden to refuse and if you refuse it means you are really mad at me and I will be sad."

"Yes!" I was forced to say and he smiled.

"I hope so. Bye! Go home safely ." He said and turned his back on me.

How can I explain this to Saint?

Until I get home, my mind is still thinking if how to let Saint know about it. Because if I will told him that I'm with someone else, I'm sure he'll come too. It's not that I don't want to be with him, but it's awkward, isn't it?

Saint is really over protective. I know her Daddy ordered him to be with me all the time for my safety , but maybe this is too much, right? I will not be harmed because I am with Psalm. He is a nice guy. He is harmless.

I just lay down on my bed and stared at the ceiling. Tomorrow is Wednesday, but maybe it would be better if I let Saint know in advance.

I mustered up the courage and got out of bed. Maybe he won't be angry. This is just a simple hang out, Daddy wants me to have a normal life and part of normal life is  to roam.

I walked towards Saint's room and I could feel the excitement enveloping my whole body. I know how scary Saint is when he's mad. He isn't the Mafia Boss for nothing.

I took a deep breath and knocked softly. "Who is that?" I heard him ask.

"It's me, Sab." I said. He opened the door and his cold gaze immediately went down through my spine. Be calm, Sab. You can do it girl.

This is just simple. All I have to do is just ask him what I need and that's it. I can do it. I hope so.
