Chapter Chapter5
A week passed after the rebels stormed the academy. It's also been a week since I've seen Seph. I can't find him so I wonder if he will continue to reject me. The wind blew me away. Anikka, on the other hand, doesn't ask if Seph is really my mate. I also don't know if he likes Seph or if Seph also likes Anikka
Because weekends now are our free time and we can go out of the academy and roam if we want. We thought we were friends to go to the pub and be wild at least once
I was going to the gate because they were waiting for me there so I just ran but I collided with something. I would have been sorry but Seph was the one I bumped into
I remained standing and did not know what to say. Somehow I missed him
I swallowed as he looked down at my lips and I could see him clenching his fist
"Seph ..." I called so he woke up and raised both his eyebrows. "How are you?" I said and I could see the reflection of his smile on his lips but he was obviously holding it back
He just nodded. What is this awkward about. He doesn't seem to be. He used to always fight me and he even poured me a milk shake and I can't forget that
Should I ask him if he will still reject me? I just looked down and walked away. I'm ashamed
"Aryanah! It's your turn!" stamping said Rara who was obviously already waiting
I ran over to them and apologized. Lissy put her arm around me and we started walking out of the gate
I noticed that Anikka was looking at me earlier and her eyes were shining on her forehead that I had noticed earlier.
"Anikka, can you turn down that light on your forehead? What is that flashlight?" Rara said but I knew it was just a joke so we laughed
"What's the use of your eyes on Anikka's forehead? Does that see a ghost?" Meriam asked
"I can see the event I want to see" Anikka replied so I looked straight at her
Our companions seemed surprised and asked Anikka many questions. I wondered if he had seen that I had bumped into Seph earlier. But there are no feelings, are there? Because Seph doesn't like me
We got to the city we got off the train. Too many buildings and too many cars. We entered the pub and we could almost dance to the music
Rara and Meriam led the way to the counter and ordered wine. Dari and Lissy went to the dance floor and danced. Anikka left us near the door
"Aryanah do you love Seph?" I was shocked by Anikka's question. I think because he knows that Seph is my mate
"I'll mate him of course yes but not that deep because I know he doesn't like me"
"But Aryanah in case Seph likes you will you accept him as your mate?"
I was right in his question. I just smiled and shrugged. I just walked over to Rara and Meriam who were drinking at the counter and you could see that they were drunk right away and both sank down on the counter. I just laughed
"Aryanah! Anikka!" Lissy and Dari called and pulled us to the dance floor
The men immediately looked at Anikka and they immediately approached her and wanted to dance
They pushed causing Dari and Lissy and I to end up at the end and Anikka was left in the middle
Seph suddenly appeared next to Anikka and energy appeared on his forehead causing those who wanted to approach Anikka to flee.
Suddenly my heart stopped. I saw Dari and Lissy look at me
"I'll just come out" I said with a bow
"We're with Aryanah"
"Nevermind"
I walked out of the pub and was there crying. I walked down the winding road again so that Lissy and Dari could not see me. I was crying tears. My heart hurts so much "All right, just cry."
I turned to the man and wiped away the tears. He held a cigarette and threw it away and stepped on it. I was nervous about who it was but when the light hit his face I immediately saw his face "Jinn?" I was shocked by the question
"Aryanah, won't you stop crying just because of that man?"
"Wait how did you find out my name?" I was shocked by the question
"I was in the pub and when I saw you I couldn't take my eyes off you"
it said and winked at me. I don't know if I'll be happy with what he says. I averted my eyes
"Don't worry, that Anikka isn't my type" he said and looked away
My eyebrows met and I didn't know because I smiled
"What are you doing here? The darkness makes you want to hang out here?"
"Tambay and rebelde are one and the same" I said. His lip formed a smile
Suddenly my heart pounded when I looked at his lips so I just avoided. I was about to walk when I slipped and collided with Jinn leaning against the wall
My head hit his body so I was about to go away but he grabbed my waist and kissed me quickly on the lips.
My eyes widened
Right I said that he was just a tambay and a rebel. How many times has he kissed me without saying first? Our lips were still not moving when we were both surprised because someone called me "Aryanah?"
Jinn and I both looked at Lissy and Dari, Anikka and Seph
I feel guilt. It's like I'm cheating on Seph. Maybe because I mate him and I feel like I'm his wife. Lissy and Dari's faces were confused
"Aryanah what does that mean?" Dari said and looked at Seph
Even though I can't see Seph's face completely, I know he's still standing and I know he's looking at me so I don't know where to look.
"There's nothing wrong with what we're doing, is there?" Jinn said laughing
Lissy immediately pulled out a knife maybe because she saw that Jinn was a rebel. Jinn just laughed and suddenly kissed me on the cheek. Lissy, Dari and Anikka gasp. Suddenly the air flow stopped and I could see how the eyes on Seph's forehead lit up and the criticism in his eyes.
Because of what happened to Seph, Jinn's grin widened even more
"Are you jealous Sephein?" Jinn's disgust

"let Aryanah go, I know you're just annoyed! Don't use her to hurt Seph!" Dari shouted
"I'm not using Aryanah to hurt Seph" Jinn said to Dari and he looked at Seph. Jinn looked at Seph with his annoying face. "If you don't like Aryanah, why don't you just reject her after all, there's a second chance mate, right?" "Your arrogance! You're not Aryanah's thing!" Said Dari
"And who are you things? Is it Kalleis?" Jinn said at Dari face with annoying plastered in his face
"How do you?" Dari said but she cut off her words and seemed dumbfounded
What is that? Don't you say Dari likes Kalleis?
I looked at Seph and I could see the redness in his eyes. He was also stunned and clenched his fist and was obviously indignant
"Aryanah do you like that man anymore?" Lissy asked so I was surprised. "If you want I won't ban you anymore" Lissy secretly winked at me but I didn't understand why
I looked at Jinn who was staring at me. He looked at me like a puppy as if he wanted me to said yes infront of my friends. That's why I hit him hard
"Aray!" Jinn shouted because my resistance was strong
"What does that think?" I laughed and Jinn laughed and we both laughed
We forgot we had someone with us and we weren't the only two people here
"Ehem!" Lissy said so Jinn shut us up. "That looks like mutual understanding ah? Then I won't ban you but I hope you don't harm Aryanah and love her" said Lissy
Fast as lightning someone kissed me and I could feel the pressure of his lips on my lips
Seph kissed me and my eyes widened. Both precede my heartbeat. Maybe because I mate him
Suddenly there was a strong lightning and it happened one after the other and I just found out that it was Jinn who did it
I walked away from Seph and looked at Jinn you could see the jealousy and anger in his eyes
"She is my mate so back off!" Seph said
"Now you claimed her as your mate after you threw her a milk shake and hurt her feelings? You have no rights Seph so you are the one who's back off right now!" Jinn said
In a flash Jinn was in front of me and holding my hand. I winced because his palms were so hot and my hand felt like it would burn
The lightning hit Seph's feet so Seph jumped high
I screamed when Jinn picked me up and he grabbed me and he jumped high until we got away from them but Seph followed us
Jinn just jumped on the buildings but Seph was able to fly
I still don't understand what happened for so fast and now Seph is chasing us until I am almost fast because Jinn has been fast in jumping falls on buildings and Seph has been fast too
I closed my eyes and hugged Jinn tightly until we stopped on a rooftop of the building and he lowered me.
I held Jinn's hand and his anger and jealousy suddenly disappeared. He held me on both shoulders
"Do you love me?" It seems sad to say so

I was hurt by the way he looked at me and didn't know what to answer so I didn't say anything
He smiled bitterly
"Right now I will give up and be tolerant because what am I against the destined two people I can't change the destiny.. maybe for now I won't show you"
I don't know but my chest suddenly tightened and I couldn't stop the tears in my eyes so I just bit my lip
Why am I hurting?
"Can I kiss you one last time?" He said and forced a smile but I knew he was hurting
I nodded
I don't know why I nodded
Gradually our faces came closer until our lips stuck together. His kissed is light as paper. I could feel him saying goodbye to it
I close my eyes and put my hand on his neck
I felt Seph approaching us and in a flash at lightning speed Jinn suddenly disappeared.
Next came the tears in my eyes. Suddenly my chest tightened and I just bowed down. I hope I said I love him too even if he's not my mate so that I don't lose him but I know I'm just cheating on myself. How can I love him he is just stranger I wiped away my tears and looked up at the sky because I could almost see the moon because I was on the rooftop. I just smiled bitterly until I was relieved
The weekends ended and we went back to the academy. As the days went by I was always alone and sometimes stunned. When talking to me I just nod and shake so on weekends I always go to the pub
My friends could do nothing but always accompany me to the pub
But Jinn never really showed up to me anymore. I tried to find out where the rebel stronghold was but to no avail
"Aryanah? Are you sick?" Rara asked looking worried these past few days. I know they already know what happened when they were drunk in the pub. I just shook and drank some water
I stood up and walked out. It's like I'm looking for something but I don't know if I'll find it
Everyone already knew that Seph was my mate, so they were kind to me. I saw Seph but I passed him. I just stopped when he spoke
"Sorry" Seph said so I turned to him. "I'm sorry because I hurt you before" he said. "I'll explain about Anikka and me"
"Don't" I said
"Your friends already know this and you're the only one who doesn't know yet" Seph said so I listened to him. "Anikka was instructed to me by her mother as well as the teachers of Fairyries Academy, I am the one everyone expects to protect her. At first I liked Anikka maybe because I had not found my mate but when I found you I could not I know what to do so that my heart will explode and I don't know what to do first but when I saw another man kiss you it was like I wanted to
kill "
I just stared and didn't know what to say. I looked away and sighed
"Mate? Aryanah.. do you want to marry me?"
I was suddenly surprised by what Seph said. Marrying? I didn't know what to say as if I wanted to leave. I just bit my lip so hard
So I agreed
"Aryanah are you sure?!" Seph said happily so I nodded and just smiled
Maybe I need to accept Seph as my mate and marry him because that's what it's supposed to be. He is destined for me and I should just be happy
