Mischa's POV

Tomorrow is Monday and it means I have a class which is boring. I sat on the couch to rest my body because I feel so tired.

I hope I'd be able to see him again.

I sighed in disappointment, I didn't even had the chance to talk to him a little longer. The world is so big how the hell I can find him.

"Ah Facebook!" I blurted out.

I opened my mac immediately and logged in to my account, I smiled when I saw that I have 20 notifications, I didn't open my account for a week. I clicked the notification excitedly only to be dismayed because my friend Lana tagged me on her photo album titled My Boyfriend.

I rolled my eyes at the sight of the photos, she really loves to show off her boyfriend and I can't blame her because he's handsome. I wish I'd be able to find a real boyfriend soon.

"Add me!" I flinched when Heaven appeared at my back.

"I told you to pretend that you don't exist!" I said irritably.

"Oh, I think you should be the one doing that" she suggested.

"Hello! I can't pretend because you always appear!" I said after closing my laptop.

How can I pretend that a beautiful girl does not exist in my house? She's so hard not to see.

"Add me on Facebook" she said returning to our previous topic.

"No" I said dismissively before standing up. I'm about to go to my room when I stepped on one of the paper bags of the clothes that we bought. I groaned loudly in annoyance, my house is messy. I put my hands on my waist before turning around to face her.

"If it's not too much for you can you please sort out your things, its messy here" I said sarcastically.

"Yes ma'am" she saluted. I just rolled my eyes in response.

She bent down to pick the paper bags which caused me to see her underwear and her flawless thighs. I averted my eyes to the kitchen because I felt my face turn red.

This is embarrassing.

"Where can I put this?" she asked referring to the paper bags. I forgot she doesn't have a room.

"Put it in my closet, the space on the left," "You will only enter my room when you're going to change your clothes understood?" She nodded hastily. Having her is very stressing, my place has a single bedroom because I designed it just for myself so it's hard for me to think where the hell I can put her things and other stuff.

I massaged my temple to avoid developing wrinkles, if David and I saw each other again I don't want to look haggard.

"Understood" she replied smiling before heading to my room to fix her things.

I threw myself on the couch and sighed because I remember that I need to pay my tuition fee tomorrow for the second semester. I frowned when Heaven came to my mind again, she said she was an orphan so how the hell did she afford to study in my school.

I was in deep thought when she suddenly hugged me from my back which caused me to flinch. I slapped her forehead as a punishment.

"I told you not to touch me!" I yelled to her face. Her eyes were closed while her ears are covered with her hands.

"I'm sorry Mischa" she said smiling.

Why does she have to look so cute? I groaned to myself.

"How do you afford to study in a private school if you don't have parents?" I asked suspiciously. She looked a bit shocked for a few seconds before answering my question.

"I have an educational plan, that's one of the good things my parents did before they died" I don't buy her excuse.

"Really? So how old are you when they died?"

"Uh... I was four that time" she said sadly but I'm still not convinced.

"What happened to them?"

"Car accident" she said flatly. I crossed my arms while thinking of another question.

"Do you have any siblings?"

"No" she replied casually before sitting on the couch facing me. I won't stop asking her until she tells me the truth.

"Where did you live when they died?"

"With my aunt but--"

"So you have relatives! Why bother me?" I'm really starting to get suspicious.

"You don't understand. They don't treat me well" She said almost whispering as if she doesn't want me to hear it clearly.

"Can you specify what did they do to you?" She gazed at me intently. It took her a few seconds before she spoke.

"They don't give me my allowance and my pension from my parents, they also treat me like a stranger" her voice started to sound broke at the last part of the sentence. But I'm still not convince.

"Tell me the name of your aunt and I will report th--" I didn't get the chance to finish what I was about to say because she interrupted me.

"No!" she raised her voice on me. I'm taken aback by her sudden reaction, she's definitely lying. We fell silent for a while before she spoke.

"You know what? I get it, I will leave now, I won't go back here don't worry" she said while massaging her temple before she went straight to my room.

"The heck what's her problem?" I muttered frowning before following her to my room.

"Oh, shit" I muttered as soon as I opened the door. I covered my eyes because she's only wearing her undergarments.

"What are you doing?!" I asked irritably.

"Changing, I will leave tonight" she replied flatly.

"What's your problem?" I decided to open my eyes and was relieved when she turned around. She ignored me as she bent down to look for her shoes.

"Can't you just change your clothes first before you look for something?! You're not the only one in this room" I suggested

"Didn't you say you're not into girls so why bother? You have all that I have" she irked at me.

"Why are you acting like that? I'm just asking you a few questions, this is my house so it's only natural for me to interrogate you" I said fully annoyed. She glared at me before moving closer.

"I didn't say that you don't have the rights to ask but don't ask me questions if you don't believe everything that I will say"

"Okay, then explain to me your reaction when I asked your aunts name?!" I moved much closer to her, we're just inches apart.

"You don't understand, they will do everything just to bring me back to them and my life will be miserable again. I'm happy here with you but if you're going to insist that idea of yours then I don't have a choice but to go" what she said made me feel guilty.

"Okay I won't do what I just said a while ago" I want to slap my head multiple times. I can't believe I gave up the argument to a high school girl.

She beamed in happiness before hugging me so tight, I raised my both hands to my chest to stop her but it ended up cupping her breasts. My eyes widen in shock, I pushed her away with all my might.

"I told you not to hug me and please wear your clothes! My hands have sinned!" I yelled before running out of my room leaving her.

This is disgusting! It's the first time I groped a breast.

I sat on the couch and tried to calm myself again, my heart is beating so fast and my face is completely red, this evening is full of embarrassment for me.

•••

I don't want to wake up yet but my alarm kept on ringing. I'm still sleepy so I decided to make it snooze, after a couple of minutes I reached for my phone still my eyes closed.

Thud!

I opened my eyes automatically and sat on my bed. My sleepiness fade when I saw my beloved iPhone on the floor.

"Stupid! Stupid! Stupiiiiid!!!" I shouted in annoyance, I picked it up to check if it's broken, I sighed in relief when it's not. I only slept for 4 hours because I spent most of my time on searching my beloved David, unfortunately I didn't found him.

"Mischa what happened?!" Heaven snapped at me, I rolled my eyes by her reaction.

"It's nothing I just dropped my phone" I said simply.

"You're shouting, I thought something bad happened to you" she said sighing, I raised my brow at her.

"Yes something happened and I'm shouting because I want to, rule no. 6 don't barge in my room without my permission" I said irritably. I'm like this every morning, I'm irritable.

"What if you're assaulted? I can't help you if I'm gonna ask for your permission, you're already dead by then" she said thinking.

"As if you'd be able to help me? Look at yourself you're a minor and most of all...." I'm thinking of a right word to replace the word sexy, I will not flatter her.

"Most of all what?"

"Thin! You're thin!" I said dismissing the topic before jumping off my bed.

"Get out of here, I told you I have rules here. You're now breaking rule no. 3" I said while my arms on my waist.

"Okay okay I'm sorry" she said before heading on the door but she stopped.

"By the way, you look cute in the morning" she smiled at me warmly before walking out, again I rolled my eyes.

"I'm not cute! I'm beautiful!" I said confidently before walking to my bathroom. I know I'm beautiful especially when I just woke up, that's what they call bedroom face.

"Nooooooo!!!!" I shouted in embarrassment, I have a mote on my both eyes. I washed my face immediately to remove it then wiped it with a small towel.

"That little brat, she's just making fun of me when she said that I'm cute! I'm gonna lecture her when I'm done changing" I mumbled to myself.

After almost 30 minutes of fixing myself I went to the kitchen when I didn't saw her in the living room.

"Heaven!" I called her but she didn't appear. I'm surprised when I saw a hot coffee and two pancakes on the table. There's also a note so I picked it up to read.

I want to ride with you to school but you don't seem aware of the time so I decided to go first, drink your coffee and eat the pancake! I made it with love!

I'm touched by her gesture, it's been quite a long time since I lived with my parents. She's a fast learner, she already knows how to cook a pancake.

"In fairness it's delicious" I mumbled while chewing it.

I burped when I'm done eating, I didn't notice her wearing her uniform when she entered my room. She's in high-school and I'm in college, I can't believe that I'm letting a minor live in my home. It's new to me, I flinched when I realized the time, I'm already late for my first class.

"Fudge!"

•••

"How's your weekend dear?" Sam asked me ecstatically,

Tiring and frustrating! I want to tell her that but it's not a good idea. She's a gossip girl and it will ruin my reputation.

"It's fine, I met a hunk" I boasted.

"Really? As hunk as my boyfriend?" I faked a smile. She really likes to boast her boyfriend, it's her hobby. In all fairness her boyfriend is a hunk and an eye candy but he's  nothing compared to my David.

"No" I said simply.

"Oh too bad, don't worry you'll find someone like him soon" she said comforting me.

"No, what I mean is that he's hotter than yours" I said simply, her eyebrow rose but she managed to smile.

I can't let her take the crown of having the hottest boyfriend. She's part of my circle of friends and it's part of our lives to compete for a hotter boyfriend. They didn't know for real that I never had a real one, I only flirt but I don't engage into relationships, unless it's David. We only talked for a few minutes but I know in my heart that I like him.

"So when are you going to introduce him to us?" Asked by Michelle.

I don't know. I replied mentally.

"We'll come to that, right now he's busy" I said dismissing the topic. I don't know what lies I can fabricate if they continue asking and it's not a good idea.

I'm taking my premed now in B.S Pharmacology and I'll continue that to be a pediatrician. Honestly I'm not fond of children's but I want to help them, that's my motivation. Our building is near the high-school building.

"I wonder what section and floor she is" I mumbled, how come I've never seen her before when our buildings were near each other.

"Hey" my thoughts were interrupted.

"Ryan" was all I said, he was about to kiss me when I covered my mouth with my palm.

"What's wrong?" He asked me frowning.

"You, I told you we're done" I said irritably, he's boring compared to others.

Honestly I don't want to be like this, I don't want to flirt with them and give them hopes but I don't have a choice. Every time my mom wants to see me I need to have a boyfriend beside me in order for her to not date me with someone that she prefers. I don't like her taste when it comes to men.

"You think I would beg you?"

No I don't, and please don't I replied to myself.

I didn't respond and just invited my friends to walk with me back to the class.

"You're not the only woman in the world" he called after me, again I ignored.

"When will you settle? I pity Ryan" Michelle said while we're walking.

"I have David now. He's all I need" I said smiling, I really need to find him.

The way he looked at me back in the mall I know that he likes me too. If heaven didn't interrupt, who knows we might be dating now.

"Wait I left my phone in my car, you girls go ahead" I said before running to my car, thieves are good these days especially if they saw an expensive things inside your car.

"Mischa!" I flinched and bumped my head on the car roof.

"Ouch!" I exclaimed in pain.

"Are you alright?" Heaven asked me anxiously.

"Do I look like alright?! I'm hurt stupid!" I yelled to her face, I froze  afterwards when I saw that she's with her friends. They're all looking at me, eyes widen. Crap.

"Sorry dear, I'm just tired and I'm looking for my phone" I said then tapped her shoulder, I can't tap her head because she's taller than me. She smiled at me simply.

"Hi guys" I waved to her friends.

"You yelled at Heaven's face, you're dead" the one with the ponytail said.

"Dead?" I said confused. I'm looking at Heaven.

"No, that's a joke" she said then faced her friends.

"This is Mischa Lewis, she's my girlfri—-" I slapped her forehead to stop her from talking.

"I'm her older cousin, nice to meet you guys" I said hastily. They all nodded.

"Ah... So it's okay if you yelled at her and slapped her forehead. You're a family" the one with the red lips said.

"I don't understand what you're saying guys, I have  to go now because I have classes. See you around" I said then started to walk but before that I gave Heaven a death glare. I smiled when I heard her friend say that I'm beautiful.

I know that already.

I'm not smart but I'm a hardworking student, I'm doing my best to pass my subjects. I'm not good in numbers but I'm good in memorizing the medicines and they're components. Today it's our laboratory and I forgot my lab jacket in my car.

"Ugh stupid!" I cursed myself again, I've been to my car to get my phone and yet I didn't remember to get the lab coat. I'm really aging, the professor will arrive in ten minutes so I have to hurry.

"Ah wait I'll call Heaven!" What a brilliant idea, My eyes were sparkling but then I sighed immediately when I realized that she doesn't have a phone and a key to my car. I groaned in annoyance before standing up. I was running in the hallway when I bumped to a high-school girl and fell on the ground.

"Fudge!!!!" I exclaimed in pain.

"Mischa I'm sorry, you suddenly appeared" Heaven said then lifted me up in an instant.

"What are you doing here in college building?!"

"Minimize your voice" she commanded, I obliged when I realized that everybody in the hallway is gazing on us.

"What are you doing here?!" I said in a low voice. She smiled then gave me my lab coat, I'm delighted by her gesture.

"Oh thanks you're a blessing!" I said happily.

"You're welcome" she said hastily, I'm about to head back to the lab when I realized something.

"How the hell did you get this?! My car's locked! And how'd you know that it's my lab today?" I asked her curiously, I said it in a low but in a dangerous tone. What if she's a  thief, how the hell did she open my car door.

"Easy, yeah you locked your car but you left the window open and I saw your lab coat folded on the drivers seat so I thought you forgot it, it turns out I'm right" she said still smiling.

Gah! Why does she have to always smile? I suddenly felt bad for yelling at her. I massaged my temple before speaking again.

"Okay... I'm sorry, I'm just tired because I don't slept well last night, anyways thank you" I said smiling.

"It's alright, anything for my girlfriend" I looked around to check if anyone heard what she said.

"I told you not to say that word!" Again my temper rose.

"Okay I'm sorry, it just slipped on my mouth. I'll get going, I'll see you around" she said then about to walk away when I grabbed her sleeve.

"Wait"

"What is it?" Still smiling at me.

"Did you close my car window before you locked my door?" I asked anxiously.

"Yes don't worry" she said then waved goodbye. I sighed in relief, I nodded in response to her wave, at least she has a common sense.

My laboratory ended after five hours, I'm so exhausted and hungry at the same time, when I'm in laboratory class time goes by fast. I gazed at my watch to check the time. I'm about to open my car door when Heaven came to my mind.

Fudge where is she? I forgot her?!  I didn't give her money so she hasn't eaten anything yet and where the hell did she get the money to ride a cab?. I started to get anxious like a mother looking for her child. I still don't like her living with me but I'm not that cruel. I groaned again in annoyance, I really need to give her a phone.

I drove to the high-school building and looked for her but I didn't saw her, even her friends.

"Excuse me miss, ah if by chance do you know a girl named Heaven? She's in senior year here" I asked the girl with her hands clinging on her boyfriend.

"Ah, she left and I hope she won't come back" she said annoyed. I frowned by her response.

"What? Why?" I asked out of curiosity. She snorted before answering.

"She's a nuisance here. Every boy in our classroom likes her even the college students, even this stupid" she said while pointing to her boyfriend. I don't have time to listen to her dilemma but I don't like the words that she said.

"Thanks" I said and about t leave when I stopped and faced her.

"By the way, Heaven's my cousin and I can't blame your boyfriend for liking her, I can see the difference vividly" I said smirking then entered my car and drove fast home. That's one of the curse of being drop-dead beautiful, a lot of women would hate and hurt you.

I'm hungry and I don't have time to cook plus I don't have stocks in the fridge. I need to go to the supermarket. I don't shop much because I usually order on restaurants but now that I have an orphan I need to change that.

I'm about to step outside of the mall when I saw a familiar figure,

"Gosh it's David!" I muttered, she's with an older woman. I think it's his mom, his arms on her shoulder, it's a plus for me if a man is sweet to her mother. I ran to the baggage counter and left my things to follow them.

"Now I'm a stalker" I mumbled again. He's really handsome, I want to call him but I don't want to look like a fool.

They entered the Samsung store, maybe they're going to buy a phone, I wore my shades then followed them inside the store. I think he won't recognize me.

"Good morning
