STELLA'S!

Chapter 5

Today's last class - drama - is over, the clock shows at 3:00 p.m. everyone is scattering out of class, but not for me who still wants to sit for a moment in class. Today I noticed a slight look on Jake, occasionally I found him watching me. Maybe he still felt bad about what he said yesterday. I'm not mad at him, it's just that I don't want to be bothered for now.

"Stella..." Jake walked up to my bench and stood in front of me.

"Follow with me" he continued, clasping my wrists away from the classroom.

"What are you doing Jake, let go. I don't want to go anywhere" I said without a fight.

He ignored my words and continued to pull me towards the car park in the school yard. Whether since when, everyone noticed us, not a few also whispered to each other. Is that handsome Jake in their eyes? I said in my heart.

Jake opened the door to the bone-white audi and told me to get inside. Without taking a long time his car sped away from the courtyard of Violet High School.

Along the way only cold temperatures were felt, without warm chatter or radio noise. I rubbed my cold arms together, saw that, Jake set the AC temperature of his car. For me, the cold temperature was not because of AC, but the awkwardness between us was so pronounced.

Jake's been pounding a lot like he was gesturing me to start a conversation. But I moved him, I prefer to observe the city scenery along the way. He then played the radio in his car, the choice fell on a song called can't take my eyes off of you .

"When I was 17, I lost my father in my family,"

I turned my eyes from the side of the road to Jake.

"...He was very rude, had no feelings, and in his life embodied the principle of the Women's Throne Treasure." he continued.

He remained silent for a long time, then resumed his words, "Nearly seven days a week he always hit or said harshly to my mother, every night there was a new woman he brought into our house. Until finally He really loved a girl half his age and was willing to leave my mother who was very loyal to him. Just imagine, he loves someone his age

almost the same as me. Axel, my sister, was 15 years old when she was 16 days away. He was very disappointed and could not stand the situation in our house, so he killed my father and Axel committed suicide. My mother was in shock over the death of her husband and son, making her sick and stressed. He blames me for what happened because I couldn't stop Axel from doing it at midnight. The longer his memory fades, the more he remembers only Axel..."

"Jake..."

"I haven't finished telling a stupid story, just listen." she said as she rubbed the tip of her eyes holding back the tears that would flow. At times like this he still makes jokes by telling me, b o d o h. Really crazy guy.

"....From that moment on I didn't want to set foot in the house. I decided to go to boarding school, I happen to love art too"

"Where are you taking me, by the way?" ask me.

"I haven't been to Mom in a long time, if you know, you're the first person I've shared my personal story with"

"Mother..." Jake walked up to the woman while I walked beside her. His lips trembled, the look on his face turned into fear, the look on his eyes radiating a deep sadness.

The woman flipped her body, her lip line visible concluding a warm smile.His eyes shed tears of affection, "Axel...."

Degs..

My heart was tight when the woman mentioned Axel's name, not Jake's.

"How's Mom doing? I'm sorry Jake, I mean I'm sorry Axel just got to see Mom right now" Jake hugged the woman he loved the most that was full of love.

"Mother is always waiting for Axel's arrival, all day long Mother is standing in that window looking at the person down there hoping it's Axel," the woman also hugs Jake gently.

"Ap.doesn't Mom miss Ja...Jake?" jake asked his mother hesitating.

The woman scrunched her forehead, then said

"Jake...?"
