Diary of the Damned - 9. Entry #9

November 8^th, Wednesday

Well, I was stuck with Vlad again. He was starting to be a bit talkative. And yet there were times that he would zone out and his thoughts were probably so deep I had to snap him out of it a few times. I kept wondering what he was thinking off. Probably how to kill me and dispose of my body properly. I hope not!

So far, I lowered my guard a bit further. Since I was tasked to take care of him, I had to introduce him to other clubs that I know of. And because I was a “model student,” I was very involved with club activities. One of those clubs was the debate society. It was a childhood dream of mine to be a lawyer. As of now, I am still asking God about it if it would be the right path for me. Only time can tell.

Going back to Vlad, he was really good at making friends. It left a bitter taste in my mouth that we could’ve misjudged him. For now, I should give him a chance. What do you think, Dee?

I finally said yes to Mr. Rogers. But we both know what my real goal was. Although I didn’t get see Tristan today. He was probably absent. I already missed that cute face of his and his dimples, too. I was thinking, what if I fall in love with this kid instead. It is possible that I met him for that very particular reason. After all, I was waiting for a person who can love me back. One-sided love can be very tiring.

Mr. Rogers just told me to prepare my things for next week Friday. We would be on a trip to a particular campsite a few kilometers from here. Sounds neat. Astronomy was still an interest of mine when I was younger. And now, I have Tristan as a bonus. A cherry on top.

But the worst part of the day was I saw the guy again. He was already giving me the creeps. I saw him from outside the window. It was as if he was observing our house from a distance. This was the second time I saw that guy. And it’s not looking good for me.

I need to prepare myself in case that freak confronts me. This should be discussed with the squad soon. They can also be targets by this bunch.

Night,
Lee

Dee, have you ever wanted to punch someone so hard?

Sadly you don’t. But I hope this gives you an idea. Caleb was with Alicia again. My blood boiled at the sight of them. They made up somehow. Now, I suddenly sound like a jealous bitch. I probably am. The two of them were suddenly like a pair of love birds and I didn’t like it. Not at all. I can’t really shake off my gut feeling that Alicia was nothing but bad news.

When the squad got together, Caleb brought Alicia with him. And that almost made me walk out of the scene. She was being all giggly just to draw attention. With the best of my poker face, I tried to be as plastic as I can. I wasn’t in the mood to be your environment friendly guy. There was so much toxicity inside of me and I didn’t know why. Was I really that jealous over this girl? I’ve never felt this way before.

Even if I wanted to tell them about the mysterious guy but I had to hold back. I can bring that up some other day. But for now, I allowed Alicia to take the center stage. It looked like Jansen was kinda off annoyed, too. Then that means she was really that bad. Alicia even tried to go along with the other two girls when they went to the CR together!

For some reason, the only one who made my day was Tristan. He approached me with a big goofy smile on face. The guy invited me to study about what we would try to look for next week. It looks like Mr. Rogers already spoiled me of my involvement with the camp. Of course, I wouldn’t say no to him. We ended up in the library and he looked so animated as he explained.

Not to mention, he was really clingy. He kept scooting over to me and our faces were really really close! My heart was thumping as I got to observe real close. Tristan was really cute. But Vlad was still something else. Both of them were taking away my heart from Caleb. And Caleb had no idea what was happening. Nor did he care. Was it time to let go? I couldn't help myself but think that way.

Lastly, Max tried to avoid me a while ago. I knew something was up again. From the looks of it, he and Clyne were still not on good terms yet. I can’t help but to feel hurt for my brother. But for now, I had to let him grow up and handle it on his own. I have my own issues to deal with first.

Laters,
Liam
