Chapter 1 Neighbors Stalker

It was nine o'clock in the morning when I woke up to a noise coming from the downstairs door. I'm on the second floor of my rented house.

"Knock Knock! Knock Knock!" it shouted again and again.

"Hold on... coming down!" I replied, "Annoying! this early morning disturber while sleeping!" I got up and brushed my messy hair.

I tumbled down the stairs. "Who could this be?" I asked myself.

I opened the door and a smiling man met me.

"Good morning ma'am, are you Miss Keana Louise De Leon?" asked the man I bumped into.

I scrutinized it's entire appearance. He was wearing a polo shirt with the Anson brand, he also had a companion on his back. I estimate there were three of them, including the truck driver who was parked outside the house.

"Yes, it's me. Why?" I asked with a frown,

"Ma'am, we will only deliver what you won at Anson's Appliances. You are one of the lucky winners who won a newly released Dual Refrigerator. Congratulations ma'am!" said the male Anson agent.

I was stunned and could not speak for a few seconds. Until I was aware of a scream from a woman who had just arrived.

"Wow! This race is the best, what is it? Why do you have a delivered refrigerator? You really don't want me to say anything, do you?" Jelyssa said smiling; my great friend who said he will live in my rented house first.

"Ahh... A-what's the best, I don't know how... wait brother, maybe you're just wrong, I don't participate in raffles. I didn't win that, because I rarely go to the Mall."

"Ma'am, the address and name written here are correct, just sign it when I bring down the refrigerator you won." Smiling, the man handed over the piece of paper, so I was forced to reach for it and sign it.

"What do you mean, Keana? You don't participate in the raffle but you win? Wow! It's not... it's not like you have a name, or it's not like someone put your name because they don't want appliances anymore. You're really lucky, best!" Jelyssa said in disbelief.

"Ma'am, I'm going to lower the refrigerator, just tell me where to put it because it's also quite heavy." I nodded in response. So the man approached his companions and signaled to lower the refrigerator.

"What's going on? Last week, groceries and a sack of rice arrived. Similarly, I also won the raffle. Can't... can't someone use my name?" I whispered to myself.

"Oh, you're right, Keana. You just repeated what I said earlier!" It was shaking looking at me. He heard my whisper.

"Wait! Why only now? Didn't you say you were going home right away?"

He grinned before scratching his head as he spoke. "Sorry best, I'm a bit drunk! I thought I could go home, but I couldn't, so I slept there."

"You've only lived here for one night, bro, but you're already worrying me," I said sullenly.

"I'm sorry best, next time I'll say goodbye when I'll be sleeping in another house," I hit him suddenly on the arm,

"That's why! That's why you don't want to live with your parents because you can't wander around at night, you're the best... later you'll be pregnant!"

"Wow! Pregnant right away? Can't you be a boyfriend first?!" Jelyssa said.

"Ma'am, where are we going to put this refrigerator?" said the boy.

"It's over there!" I went inside and accompanied the boy to show where to put the refrigerator. I left my friend Jelyssa outside, and when I came back I was a bit surprised by her behavior. He is still cute and his bangs are not long, it seems to make the Anson Appliances agent standing near the truck look cute. My friend taught me to shake my head, so I came over to pinch his side.

"Oh! Is that the one who doesn't have a boyfriend? You can be so cute?!"

"My best! It's a pain, huh... I'm not pretending to be cute, because I'm really cute." He turned back to the male agent who now came forward to say goodbye.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we are leaving. Congratulations again!" he said looking at Jelyssa.

"Nothing, be careful!" Jelyssa had a playful response so I suddenly elbowed her. "A-aray best! I'm just saying goodbye,"

"Thank you brother," he said.

The man turned his back and they left in the truck. Jelyssa and I were left outside.

"He's the cutest," Jelyssa promised excitedly.

"That... you're all cute, you're all flirty! You'll get married right away."

"It's okay, don't get old girl. Hello! Pay attention to your lovers, what are you girl! It's good to study when you have inspiration, you will study hard."

"I have inspiration, that's my family hoping I can finish! You... it's not just your boyfriend who can be an inspiration, because you're studying for your future, and so you can also help your parents who make you work so hard for you to finish school, I want to make it up to them ," I said here which irritated him even more.

"Whatever! You are the great son, you are the Spanish-like stance, and you are the beautiful one who is not afraid of running out of men in the world- holala! Who is that?" Jelyssa's eyes widened as she pointed to the man just opposite my house. He was wearing a white shirt and boxer shorts. Its white and muscular body is visible.

It turned towards us, because it was fetching water and bringing it inside the house.

"Hi, please... you want to help me with that," said Jelyssa to the man.

I immediately pinched it at the waist. "Hey! What the hell, you're so flirtatious! When did you last lift a bucket? Come on in, you're a disgrace!" I pulled Jelyssa to come inside, I didn't wait for the reaction of our neighbor. When I went outside, I immediately confronted it.

"What are you! You're not even shy, you're going to flirt right next to my house?!" I said irritated.

"Wow! What you say hurts more than my mom! What are you, aren't you looking good there? So handsome... what's his name? I want to meet him," he promised excitedly.

"I know what her name is, so can it be Jelyssa! It doesn't mean that when you're handsome... you're kind too, stop being so mean!"

"Hahaha. You are awesome! That's not for me, I plan to get to know him for you! You're too busy with your studies, so I'll just make a way for you to have fun!" He sat on the sofa and stretched his leg that was still placed on the table.

"Can it be the best! I'm not interested in boys! What I want is to graduate so that I can apply to be a stewardess."

"That's the best, what if you just get on the plane for the first time and it suddenly crashes? You can't even taste God's grace! As for Josko, Keana, don't you regret your beauty anymore? You're beautiful, you're sexy, you're tall and you're sure to pass Miss World 2018. Why don't you want a boyfriend? Are you gay?" it has no brake question.

I almost laughed and choked at what Jelyssa said. If I was probably eating, I would have blown my rice out of the mouth a while ago. "As much as you can think of, is that really what entered your mind?"

"Well. I'm just making sure it's the best, because maybe later... I'm your type, you just don't say it," he said, still giggling with laughter.

"If I become a homosexual, I will not date you! Besides you are very talkative, you are very flirtatious, the best!" he said without even doubting what was said.

"I'm really your best friend! You are very honest and without plasticity, sometimes I think that because you emphasize the word 'flirty' you have a secret hatred for me, it's a good thing and I know you're just a brutal and primitive person to think, that's why you say the those things."

I don't know whether to laugh or be annoyed with my friend, because we always agree with our words. How many years have I been with Jelyssa... maybe I was just a freshman at Admson University school when Jelyssa became my classmate, and now it's only been a year since I graduated BS Tourist Management. By the grace of God, my parents are still able to pay for the tuition fee of the school I attended, and as a child, I want to repay them in case I graduate and get a job.

"What am I going to do with this refrigerator?" I asked Jelyssa.

"Try to go in there, and you'd better sleep inside- you'll probably put dishes in them so they don't rot right away, that's all... that's another addition to the bill. That's okay, I'll contribute, then it's almost Christmas. We can take advantage of that. Try it first, it looks like it will be loved, the dual door is the best!" He stood up and opened the fridge. "Wow! How much can we sell it for?"

I suddenly hit Jelyssa on the shoulder. "Immediate sale? You are the best! Maybe take it back from us and sell it right away in your mind!"

"Hehehe. Maybe it's just suddenly tight! What are you, you should always think ahead!" Laughing, he went back to the sofa and this time he lay down. "I'm going to sleep first, wake me up when it's close to twelve," he said.

"Don't tell me, you can't take a bath?"

"Don't scream, you... it's like you take a bath every day!" He closed his eyes while still smiling.

"Really! Even when there's a storm I take a bath, you're the best, take care of that!" I left it and went to the kitchen. I remembered, I haven't washed yet.

"Who is the person using my name? Does he enjoy participating in some raffle and then just give it to others? So why me? Maybe there is a price for all this ah! Maybe later, I will have a lot of debt!" I suddenly closed my lower lip. "I hope not..."

Chapter 2 Neighbors Stalker

It was twelve o'clock when I left the house. At the same time the man next door came out. I stopped walking because I looked at him, it was the same because he looked like he was confused to go back inside his house as if he forgot something inside. I just ignored it, because Jelyssa had also gone out.

"Let's go bes," said his nanny.

I just nodded, and walked towards the jeep. The school I attend is a ride from the house I rent. I lived there because apart from the up and down of the house, my budget could only afford the rent. I also don't want to spend a lot and act at home because I know that my parents can't handle everything.

My father is a jeep driver, and my mother owns a shop. I am the second of my four siblings, my older brother is already married. That's why instead of helping, it became even more of a burden because it added to the thought of Mom and Dad. He already has one child, and his job is not regular either because instead of studying, he is doing vices and hanging out with friends. Sometimes he even got involved with people who allegedly used illegal drugs, fortunately he thought about it for his son.

Even so, my parents never stopped supporting me. They have a lot of trust in me, because when I was just a child I was the acting sister to my Kuya Luis. Because I have matured thinking and they see my determination in studying, so even though the school I chose is far away, they still support me.

"You pay!" Jelyssa whispered to me. I immediately reached into my pocket and took out the twenty pesos.

"Pay, two students."

"Nice! My friend and I are free, it looks like you have a lot of money now," he said.

"No, you will free me to go home, so don't think about anything!" Shaking his head in shame, he turned to the window.

"I thought..." he didn't continue what he had to say because I already knew the temptation.

Because Jelyssa and I are both poor. He is from Manila, but his Father is in another country and he supports him. His mom works so she's always quite busy. He also always scolded her so she chose to live with her friend instead of going home with them.

After a few minutes, we arrived. There is a bit of traffic in the morning but there is not much traffic in the afternoon.

We entered the big gate of the University. We immediately proceeded to the building where Jelyssa and I entered.

When we entered the room, we immediately noticed the commotion coming from Sarah's group.

"Did you hear about the new transfer? You're from Ateneo..." Sarah said to my classmates who were staring at her.

"Really? Who could that be? handsome? I was absent yesterday so I didn't hear about it," Diane asked curiously.

Jelyssa and I sat down, I immediately took out my book and read quietly.

"Who are they talking about?" Jelyssa whispered to me,

"Don't pay attention to them, that's why there's always no answer when Prof e asks, because he only thinks of men... it seems like you're the only one."

"You're so bad! I'm really lucky to have you, apart from being boring to talk to. You are too generous! Look at your self, take off those big glasses of yours. Even if you don't have that, you're beautiful. You don't even have a degree, you're becoming a passionist and you're even wearing your grandmother's glasses!" it said laughing.

"Let me have my glasses, they have a grade, just a little." I took off my glasses and showed him. But all of a sudden a very handsome, tall and superman-looking man entered.

"Tom Cruise! Is that you?" asked Jelyssa stunned. My female classmates in particular giggled and smiled, so that their almost even teeth came out.

"Hello, girls! Is this section B2?" it asked.

My friends nodded at the same time, so he entered our room and looked for a place to sit. I was just wiping my glasses, that's why I wasn't looking at it. He looked at me and saw that there was an empty seat next to me. That's why it stopped in front of me to ask.

"Excuse me, is anyone sitting here?" it's a tender question.

I looked at it, and it was stunned to see my face. I frowned before putting on the glasses. "Did you see someone sitting? Isn't there nothing? So the seat is probably empty," I replied irritably before turning back to the book I was reading earlier.

The man sat next to me embarrassed.

"Hi, I'm Gilbert... and you?" I turned around to see if he was talking to me.

"Am I the one you're talking to?" I asked sarcastically.

"Ah...hehehe. I'm the one he's talking to. Hi, Gilbert. I'm Jelyssa." He extended his hand and Gilbert accepted it with a smile.

"Nice to meet you," he said smiling while turning to me again.

"I'm sorry, my friend is afraid of people... that's why he's like that," said Jelyssa who just shrugged my shoulders.

Gilbert smiled before nodding. "It's okay, I'll understand."

"Hi Gilbert, I'm Sarah... one of the most famous here at the University. Nice to meet you." Sarah reached out and shook his hand.

"Famous? How did you become famous? Maybe it's only famous on Facebook, because the pictures taken are all edited," Jelyssa whispered to herself.

"Are you saying something, Horse?" Sarah asked angrily.

"Oh! Am I the horse you are talking about? Look at your face, I don't think your name suits your face, because you look like Labinia!" her classmates laughed at what Jelyssa said.

"Well, that's right! Don't fight." I'll stop here.

"The thickness of your face Kaba-"

Sarah was speechless when our Professor entered.

"Good afternoon, class!" the male teacher greeted.

"Good afternoon, Professor Manrique!" everyone greeted at the same time.

"The new transfer is here. Mr. Gilbert Sy, have you met your new classmates yet?"

"Yes. Uncle, I mean... Prof,"

I turned to Gilbert. Uncle? That means... they are related to the best professor in this University? I remember, Prof used to say something, that his nephew owned an airport terminal car. Is this what he is referring to? Gilbert? But why is he still studying?

"Good then, well gudluck!" here.

Gilbert nodded and turned to me again. He caught me looking, so he smiled at me. I lowered my gaze and turned to Prof, but I was still thinking. Next to me is the owner of my dream job, to be a stewardess someday. If I get better, maybe in case...

"No! My mind was wrong, so I studied to be able to work honorably. Don't use other people to get what you want in life!" I whispered to myself that Gilbert was surprised.

"Are you all right?" he asked worriedly.

I looked at him so I nodded shyly. I think I'm suddenly sane?

After class I went to the faculty.

"Ma'am, is Sir Harold there?" I asked the teacher sitting at the front of the door.

"Yes, he is there in his cubicle," he replied.

"Thank you, ma'am." I headed inside and found Sir Harold sitting in his chair. "Good afternoon sir," I greeted.

"Oh... Miss De Leon, it's good that you came. Sit down first," he said and I immediately obeyed.

"Thank you." I sat down before speaking again. "Sir, I would just like to beg again for my tuition fee next month. It might be delayed again, because we had a problem. I will chase again before the cut off," I shyly pleaded with sir.

"You know, Miss De Leon. I want to help you finish your last year here at Adamson University. You are one of the best students here, which is why we have no hesitation in agreeing to support you. Well maybe, you know that this School has only one Mission, that is to provide a way for people who dream of life to advance, and you are one of those people Miss De Leon. So don't stress about paying the tuition fee, because the school can wait for you, but you can't postpone your dream, so... don't worry, we'll just wait for a time when it's not so stressful your family It's up to me to talk to the Treasurer," Sir Harold said with a smile.

"Thank you very much, sir. I will look at this with great gratitude. Thank you very much." I cried and stood up to shake hands with sir, and say goodbye.

"Your welcome, do better, Miss De Leon."

I nodded and left the faculty. My face shows the joy that I got rid of a big thorn. I have been thinking about paying my tuition fee for a few days now. Mom and Dad got stuck because my youngest brother got sick. That's why I have to make sacrifices so that they can also be in the province.

I looked around, and looked for my friend Jelyssa.

"Where is that girl? I said wait for me here, my feet are really itchy!" I walked out of the University. Not far away, I saw my friend standing near a beautiful car.

"W-what-" I was stunned by my friend's cry.

"Well! Come on, Gilbert will take us." It waved at me, making me frown.

"Deliver? Don't tell me, the new transfer is already her boyfriend?" I whispered to myself.

Even though I was shy, I came here.

"Bes, Gilbert is going to take us, let's get on!" this command.

Gilbert opened the door and looked at me a little shy.

"Get on board, Keana."

"Sorry huh! But I will not go with you. I'll just commute," he said, which made Jelyssa sad.

"What? Why do you still commute? Gilbert is here! He said he was about to deliver us..."

"It's up to you, I'll go first. Bye!" I walked away and left the two in the car.

I don't want to go with them. Maybe later what others will think. Then I still have a ticket, I can still go home alone.

As expected, Jelyssa was already at home when I arrived.

"You know girl, it's your KJ! That person already offered to take you, and then you ran away from us?!" it promised.

"First of all, I didn't run. Did I walk, and secondly why would I go with someone I don't know? You... you always think too much! That might ruin you, too." I went into the kitchen to get some water.

"You're crazy! That's why the person will bring you, he wants to meet you, he will court you too. You! Tom is so handsome, it's Gilbert."

"There you are again handsome! Don't you get tired of people praising you? Why is it not nice to find you, you will respect and take care of you. I thought it was you, because he still knows something to deliver."

"Go to the Church, you're looking for a priest!" it said irritably.

"I don't know about you!" I went upstairs and changed my clothes. Later Jelyssa screamed.

"Well, there's no water!"

"Gaga! Go outside, and make out with the kids there," I replied while looking at my whole body in the mirror. I lost a bit of weight because I thought about problems.

"Duh! Refrigerated, no water! What is that?!"

I just shook my head at what my friend was saying. I'm used to the fact that sometimes even water fits me. How is the water that was lost there also paid for? The house I rented did not have its own faucet, but it only had its own electric meter.

I sat on the bed as I opened my notebooks that we studied earlier, I read them again because I didn't get the explanation earlier. I was distracted thinking about my tuition fee.

After reading, I thought about cooking dinner, it's already 6 pm that's why my stomach is grumbling. When I went down the stairs, I almost fell when I saw a man from our bathroom.

"Who are you?!" I exclaimed,

It looked at me and I recognized the man next door. My heart almost dropped as it turned around in slow motion and it felt like a sudden wind in my face. I came back to my senses when he spoke.

"Ke-keana!" it said in shock.

I immediately went down and faced him.

"W-what are you doing here? Why are you from-"

"Bes," Jelyssa interrupted what I was going to say.

I turned around and saw him coming out of the bathroom.

"Oh my!" I covered my mouth and almost turned pale. Did they really come here?

"Hey! What do you look like? Don't be OA! Papa Kael is afraid of you," said Jelyssa to me.

"W-what are you doing in CR?" I will ask.

"Huh? Ah! You have the wrong idea, Keana! I-I'm not doing anything!" Kael refused.

Jelyssa burst out laughing at what I asked.

"Don't worry grandma, you think too far ahead. I just asked Kael to fetch water, I saw earlier that he was good at lifting a bucket, so I knocked on him to fetch us!" it explains.

I looked at Kael's hand, it was holding the empty bucket, but that was not the only thing that stood out. His muscular body is still sweating as he wears a fitted shirt. It's obviously stretched because there is muscle in his arm, especially his bulging chest. I think I suddenly began to sweat when I described in my mind the entirety of what I was facing.

I looked at his face, his lips are naturally red and his nose is moderately pointed, he also has a chin that makes his appearance even more handsome, and the last thing I didn't miss was his attractive eyes, his dark eyebrows that were quite thick and fluttering eyelashes as if all that was natural. It was too late before I realized that it was also staring at me, so I was startled and suddenly turned to Jelyssa. I came here because this smirk seemed to mean something. I pulled him by the arm and scolded him strongly.

"What are you, bro! I said, there is a child to be commanded! You are really thick and you chose to serve us right next to our house!"

"What's wrong with that? Papa Kael is willing to help, so hello! He's so smart, I just said one thing and he immediately helped me!"

Chapter 3 Last Night

I was COOKING pickled chicken, when I noticed that Jelyssa was knocking on the door as if she was excited.

"Hey! Would you like me to pour some cold water on you, so that you will really be thrilled!" I looked at him.

"Why is that? I'm just glad... apart from Kael's handsomeness, he's also very gentlemanly. I said, there's only one bucket left, look... he filled our drum inside the bathroom. Oh isn't he, he's so sweet?" he said, still staring outside where he could see the faucet that Kael was flirting with.

"And you really recognized my neighbor immediately! It's me, I've been living here for several years, I didn't even know his name was Kael!"

"How do you know, you're so flattered! He knows you..." he said, making me stop what I was doing.

"Known? How did he know me?"

"I know, I'll ask later."

What Jelyssa said made me even more nervous. "What? Nevermind! You're really crazy, I'm not even interested in knowing." I turned my eyes back to what I was doing. At any rate, my friend has no shame in that. But how did he know me? Wait, why am I thinking that? Anyone will know your name, even if you haven't been out much, gossip is the trend!" I whispered to myself.

Kael came later, and placed the bucket on top of the sink. I couldn't help but look at him, how could I be attracted to his handsome arm. It's also my first time to have a man flirt with me.

"Thank you so much, Kael! You're really kind, it's a shame if I just give you twenty pesos for your teasing. Just kiss me-"

"Well!" I surprised him with what he intended to say.

"Ahh... well... hehehe. I'll catch up with you next time, Kael. This friend of mine is really jealous, I'm sorry." I glared at it even more and at that time I approached it and pinched its side.

"What are you, bro! What are you talking about?!"

"Ah... I'll continue," Kael said goodbye.

"Huh? Don't! I mean, can you just eat here? You pay for your procrastination, don't you think? Is he going to eat here?" Jelyssa asked me.

"Wow! And you actually even made an offer... that's great!" I whispered to myself.

"Ah, don't... I'm still quite full," Kael refused.

"I'm still full," I said with a smile. Thank you and he refused.

"Full? How are you full, you're so tired! What are you, aren't you a good cook? Let Kael taste it," he said, still grinning.

"I think you're doing it on purpose!" I whispered to him with wide eyes.

"Don't leave yet, Kael. Eat here," said Jelyssa.

"Huh? It's embarrassing for you..." It turned to me, so I was a little shocked.

"Fine. You eat here, I cooked quite a lot of it." I walked over to the sink and stirred the pickle again.

"Yeeee! My friend is really smart. Come on Kael, sit here." Jelyssa sat in the chair and motioned for Kael to sit in another vacant seat. The table was quite small, so we were actually face to face.

"I'm still a little full, it's embarrassing for Keana," Kael whispered to Jelyssa. I heard his weak voice. That's why I smiled a little. It was embarrassing, but he sat anyway.

I put the dish on the plate. Kael suddenly stood up to help me prepare but I stopped him.

"I-I'm Kael, I can do it. Just sit there." I looked at Jelyssa who was sitting smiling. This my friend is really crazy, what is going on in that mind for sure.

"Bes, you are really good at cooking. Hard at work, smart, beautiful, then added with talent like this. Isn't her husband Kael very lucky?" Jelyssa turned to Kael at the same time.

Kael paled and looked at Jelyssa, "Yes, it's really lucky," Kael agreed.

"Wahhhh! I'm thrilled, Jelyssa shouted.

"Stop that! You're so lazy, don't pay attention to him my friend. It's just fun sometimes." I sat down to start eating. But I felt ashamed of the food. It's embarrassing to eat properly when you have a man in front of you.

"Hmmm. It's really delicious! Bes, why didn't you take the HRM course, after all you have a talent for cooking."

"I want to go to different places," I answered sparingly.

"Hey, you Kael? What are you up to?" Jelyssa turned to it.

"Ah... what, I'm just looking for a job," he stammered.

"Looking for work? You work for me, double pay with extra-" I slapped Jelyssa's hand and she stopped.

"What?" I looked at him so he laughed and turned to Kael again.

"What did you finish, Kael? Do you have a girlfriend?" it asked again.

"Well!" I'll say it again.

"Hehehe. Why? Is it bad to ask? The answer to my second question is more interesting," he said.

Kael was smiling, but he bowed while eating, as if he was shy to face me.

"I'm sorry for covering his mouth, that's how he really is," I apologized to Kael.

"That's fine," he said softly.

"You know, Kael. He is very lucky my friend... did you know that everything you eat is free," said Jelyssa.

"Well! Also..."

"What are you doing, Kael seems to be trustworthy," he said laughing.

"Free?" Kael asked.

"Yes. Because Bes said they won those in the raffle. And he doesn't buy a ticket."

I just kept quiet, how could I not stop my friend from talking.

"He's lucky," Kael said sparingly.

"You know, if I were you... I'd find the person using your name, and I'd say follow the Flat Screen TV. As if it wasn't boring-"

"Are you crazy? And you really made a request?!" I laughed at this.

"Why not? You do realize... don't you Kael?" Jelyssa asked Kael again.

Kael only responded with a smile. That's why I just continued to eat. I know my friend is just as crazy.

Tomorrow...

"Knock Knock! Knock Knock!" I opened the door to the person who kept calling. It was nine o'clock in the morning so I was already awake, and I bumped into a man.

"What is it?" I will ask.

"Ma'am, are you Keana Loiuse De Leon?" asked the man in front of me.

"Yes why?"

"Ma'am, you won the raffle-"

"Wait brother!" I stop here. "What is this again?" I asked with a frown.

"What ma'am, you have a Flat Screen TV." Scratching his head he said.

"I can't accept that, give it back because I didn't win that!" I closed the door. And behind the door I leaned. "Who really does this?"

"W-what happened to you bro?" Jelyssa asked in surprise.

It came from the bathroom and just finished taking a shower.

"Huh? Ah... nothing!" I nervously walked towards the stairs, but he stopped me.

"Wait a minute! why are you pale What's out there?" he asked but when I didn't speak he looked at the door and didn't wait for my answer. He just walked closer to the door.

"Don't be!" I stop here.

He smiled before opening the door.

"Who's in-" Jelyssa was stunned when she saw the man standing outside the door.

"Good morning," greeted Gilbert.

"Gilbert?! It's your morning," said Jelyssa.

I was also surprised to see Gilbert outside. The appliance agent was there just now. Why is Gilbert now there?

"You?!" My eyes widened and I exclaimed.

"W-what is he? You're bad, why did you lock the door on Gilbert? Go on Gilbert." Jelyssa opened the door for Gilbert to enter.

Gilbert was surprised when he looked at me. "Is there a problem, Keana?" Gilbert asked.

"Yes, why are you sending me appliances and groceries? What do you think of me, beggar?" I will punish him.

"Huh? W-what do you mean?" it was a surprising question.

"You mean... you're the one who sends Keana groceries, and that expensive refrigerator? Then you entered our school so you could be with Keana? Ayyy... you're so romantic Gilbert," said Jelyssa who was thrilled with what Gilbert did.

"Tsk! What's romantic there? Get this refrigerator you sent here, then take your groceries home! The others I used, I'll just pay for them!"

"Wait, Keana... I'm not sending anything like that!" deny it.

"Oh, Papa Gilbert is still babbling, that's fine! Maybe you want to send the receipt too... just in case Bes Keana and I get stuck, we can sell it at the right price."

"Stop Jelyssa! I'm not joking!" I snorted to my friend.

"Oh... don't say it Gilbert, Ateng Keana is menstruating," said Jelyssa.

Gilbert stood up, and approached Keana.

"I didn't send that! Then why should I send appliances?" Gilbert said seriously.

"So why are you with the boy with the Flat Screen TV? Don't tell me you're going to deny it?!"

"Huh? Is that it? I just met that outside, I thought it was just selling or explaining. Wait Keana, why are you so hot for me? Did I do something to you? Tell me. We only met yesterday, but it seems like we have a past conflict." I was stunned by what Gilbert said. What he said is true, why am I so hot headed?

"What are you doing here?" I asked in a low voice.

"I just want to be friends with you, of course Jelyssa as well. Is that bad? I'm a new transfer to the University, that's why I want to have a friend."

"We are women, you can make friends with your fellow men," I replied.

"No. I mean, not now... it's like there are few male students there who want to be friends with me," said Gilbert sadly.

"Ayyy... Gilbert is pitiful. Allow it, bes, it's not bad to have a male friend. Then Gilbert is rich, he can free us anywhere," replied Jelyssa.

"What are you, Jelyssa!" I widened my eyes and it froze again.

"Okay fine, but aren't you really the one sending this?" I asked again.

"No. Those are not mine," he replied quickly.

"Who is sending this?" I whispered to myself.

"Maybe you have a lover, and he's bringing it to you," Gilbert said.

"There are many people planning to court Bess, and I know you are one of them Gilbert, but besides you... who can bring that?" replied Jelyssa again.

"Last night, we just talked about TV. Then this morning, a TV came right away, couldn't it... couldn't it be Kael?" I looked at Jelyssa, but she responded with a loud laugh.

"Oh common, Keana! Is your brain getting weaker? Papa Kael, will send a TV? Look... do you see his rented house? He has almost nothing in the house, and still no job. Are you telling me that with his hard work he can buy things like that? Or will he try to join the raffle and then just give it to you?" Jelyssa said sarcastically.

"Yes, no!" I agree. "And how did you hear what you said last night?"

"You know, it's just coming now. Then I was the first to say last night, okay, if it's really someone from the ghost who's sending you that, let's ask again... hopefully later, he'll send a Washing Machine. It's like my hand doesn't hurt anymore from doing laundry," joked Jelyssa.

"I don't know about you! You're being silly," I said irritably.

"Hahaha. Hey Gilbert! You heard that right? Maybe later on you'll call your friend and send a Washing Machine, oh! Confirm... it's really you!" Jelyssa said laughing.

"That's not me, and I'm not rich enough to provide appliances," Gilbert denied.

"Really! What can you say about that in your car?"

Gilbert was stunned, that's why he sat back on the sofa shaking himself.

"Gosh! That said... you're so humble!"

"Why are you here Gilbert?" I'll change the subject.

"I plan to pick you up, so we can go in together later.

"Wow! This gentleman is Gilbert. Bes, when Gilbert flirts with you, answer right away... because now I'm falling in love with him," said Jelyssa.

"Why don't you just answer, you're the one who falls! Take care of that!" I left them both. I'll fix things.

While I was packing, I remembered the Flat Screen TV. "Who sent it then? Raffle? He thought he was going to trick me in the raffle. Whoever you are, I will recognize you too!"
