One Roof With Five Hot Jerks

Chapter Chapter Eighty-seven



Louis Point of View

"Alyn!" Sid yelled. He ran to Alyn who's soaked from the rain. While Bryon, Giles and I followed Sid.

"Where's Wendy? Why hasn't she been here yet?" I asked.

"It's raining! What if something happens to her?" Said Sid.

"We can't find her on the campus, we thought that she went home first but when we arrived here she's nowhere to be found," Byron uttered. "Did you guys fight?" Giles asked.

We waited for a few minutes for Alyn to answer but there was no word coming out from his mouth. Instead, he remained silent while his head was bent over. "Answer us, Alyn!" I yelled and grabbed his collar.

Damn, if anything bad happens to Wendy, I will never forgive him. Never.

"Hey, Alyn! D-Don't just shut your mouth off," Sid's voice shook. "Y-You're scaring us."

"Does something bad happen?" Giles asked.

I let go of Alyn's collar and turned to Giles, "Are you stupid? Why would something happen to Wendy?!"

"Why are you yelling at me?! I was just asking Alyn!" Giles talked back to me.

I turned to Alyn and pushed him, "Why are you being quiet? What did you do to her? What did you do to Wendy!"

"Fuck!" He screamed which surprised us. "Leave me alone for Pete's sake! Because even I don't know what happened! Damn it!"

I scoffed, "Leave you alone? We are asking you where Wendy is!"

"How would I know?!" He looked at me with his burning eyes.

"What are you saying?" Sid interrupted, "You're her boyfriend of course you should know where she is!"

"You... Is there really something that happened between you two?" Byron's eye twitched as he tilted his head.

Alyn clenched his fist and his jaw moved. We waited again for a moment but we didn't hear anything from him.

"Did you cheat?" I asked. "You always change girls every time. Are you still not content with Wendy? Is that why you find another? For fuck's sake, Alyn! This is Wendy we are talking about!" I exclaimed. "What?" Byron exchanged glances to Alyn and I. "You won't survive, Alyn, if GH found out about this."

"You cheated, didn't?" I asked again.

"No! Fuck, no!" He pulled his hair out of frustration, "Why are you blaming everything on me, huh?! What should I do? How would I know where she is, if she doesn't even read my messages and answer my calls?! Tell me! Don't talk to me like it was only you guys that care for her! Yes, I'm her boyfriend, so what do you think I am feeling right now?! Shit!"

I took a deep breath, "Then, tell us what really happened between you two. Wendy will be here right now if nothing happens."

Giles nodded, "Louis is right. Talk about this matter with us."

"GH is not here. He flew back to Canada again," Sid muttered.

"We should talk about this now before GH comes back," said Byron.

"Let's go inside," I said. I turned around and led the way.

We decided to change our clothes first before we talked. As soon as I got into my room, I immediately changed and after that I went downstairs. While walking to the living room I noticed that Alyn hadn't changed his uniform yet. He was just sitting on the couch while staring blankly at the tiles.

"Alyn," I called him but there was no response from him. "Alyn," I called again. "Alyn!"

He looked startled. He turned his head to the left before he turned to the right where I was standing.

"W-Why?" He asked.

I was going to speak when Byron suddenly appeared at my back.

"What the heck? Alyn did not change?" Byron asked.

"Huh? Really?" It was Sid.

"You should change first, Alyn. You will catch a cold if you just let it dry," Giles said.

"We'll wait for you here, go change," I uttered.

He stood up without responding. He grabbed his bag before he turned away. My eyes just followed him walking upstairs. When I could no longer see him, I sat down on the couch and heaved a sigh. Damn. Wherever Wendy is now, I hope she's doing fine.

After a few minutes, Alyn went back. He sat down in front of us while we were just staring at him.

"Spill it now," said Giles.

Maxine's Point of View

"You have never seen that woman until today?" Ferries asked.

I have already shared to them what I saw and what was the reason why I called Angela. I'm already here so I don't have a choice but to tell them what happened. Maybe later if I don't tell them the reason why I don't want to go home, Angela might kick me out of here.

I nodded, "I don't think that she's a transferred student because no transfered student will do that."

Angela pouted, "You don't know every student there, right? Maybe she was really a student there but this is just the first time you saw her."

Ferries crossed her legs, "You don't memorize all the faces of the students there, do you?"

I shook my head, "I'm just... Damn, I don't know what to do."

"Just don't talk to that jerk for now if you're not ready yet," Ferries said.

"What if Alyn suddenly appeared? What should she do?" Angela asked.

"Then, tell him to wait!" Ferries rolled her eyes, "He started it so he needs to wait until you are ready to talk to him. If he forces you, just punch him. He deserves it anyway."

Angela chuckled and turned to me, "You heard her, right? Just punch him if he forces you."

Ferries stared at me, "But I didn't know that he would do that to you. I mean, you seemed very special to him. I was once his plaything but he didn't care for me as he cares for you. Also, this was the second time I saw his eyes smile while talking to someone. You know, the difference when he stares at you. When he smiles his eyes will smile too when he is talking to you."

My brows furrowed, "Second time?"

She nodded, "Yeah, second time."

"W-Who... Do you know who's the first person who made him like that?" I asked.

"Yeah, of course," she took out her phone and looked at it. After a while, she showed me the display of her phone. "This is the girl. Alyn's first love."

"May I see?" Angela sat beside me and looked at the phone screen too.

My eyes shrunk. I tried remembering the face of the girl I saw at the parking lot to know if it was the same person.

"Wasn't this Elaine?" Angela asked while seriously looking at the phone.

I looked at her, "What did you say?"

She sat down properly, "Huh? What?"

"Who was that girl on Ferries' phone?" I asked.

"Hmm... I'm not sure, but her face seems like she was Elaine," she answered.

Elaine? As in the Elaine that I often heard about?

Ferries put her phone back inside her hoodie's pocket, "Yeah. That's her: my ex-best friend and Alyn's ex-girlfriend."

"Elaine..." I muttered.

My brows furrowed. I tried again to remember who the girl Alyn was kissing at the parking lot. I repeated multiple times in my memory the scene where the girl turned around to look at me. After that, I remembered the photo in Alyn's room that I saw the first time I went into his room. The picture frame that I doodled when I was pranking them.

My hand automatically covered my mouth and my tears ran down when I realized that...

The girl at the parking lot, the girl in the picture frame and the girl on Ferries' phone... they were, they were the same person.

That girl... It was a woman named Elaine.

"H-Hey, Max! What happened?"

"Oh, my gosh. Are you really crying?"
