Sabotaging My Walkout Queen novel Chapter 23

David’s P.O.V.

“Okay then, it's fine with me… but let me clear things up, Helena. I want you to know that I'm not a perverted type of guy. I’m not a maniac! And if that's what you think of me, then it was all because of you. I hated to admit but what happened to us was my first kiss, and if for you, it was an accident… well for me, it was an experience.” I said with conviction while my heart was beating freaking faster. It was so loud as if it wanted to come out.

She stayed at the door for a few more minutes, but she never glanced at me again. She never looked back. She inconsiderately left me after taking a deep breath.

I held my chest. My heart was still pounding so fast. It made me feel confused. I never thought of having the nerve to say those words. I left the classroom and my mind was still preoccupied. I got even more bewildered after Helena and I talked.

To divert my thoughts, I decided to go to the Computer Room and started my research about the Annual Camp strategies and methods that we could use for our proposal. Since senior students always lead, it would be my first time to handle this school year’s annual project.

This would be such great exposure for me being a valedictorian candidate. I should not disappoint Mrs. Cheng and the whole school admin. I should not fail them.

After I got all the important Annual Camp information and tactics as references, I didn’t yet turn off the computer. Because we could open our social media accounts here during break periods, I opened my Famebook.

My younger sibling, Denise, tagged me again on her cute selfie with a private message telling me to give the photo a heart reaction. I immediately complied because I couldn’t say ‘no’ to my twelve-year-old sister. She was so sweet, bubbly, and cheerful. How I wished that she would never grow up and just stay that way forever.

Then, I was tempted to look for Helena’s Famebook account. I typed Helena Mari Delgado on the search engine and after I clicked the enter key, I found two profiles. The first one joined four years ago while the other one only joined last year.

I opened the one who joined four years ago and her last public status update was posted about eighteen months ago…

Feeling happy. Traveling to Las Albas with Daddy and my twin.

While copying and pasting all the three profile pictures using Photo Enhance software, I could say that the two Helenas were undoubtedly the same woman. That was when I noticed Athena’s difference and that made me frown. If I could see myself in the mirror, I was sure that my eyebrows were almost knitting together while thinking about something I wasn’t sure if I already encountered before.

I didn’t know why but it was Athena's profile who really captured my attention. I browsed some of her closed-up photos and I suddenly got stunned when…

Wait! Why does it seem—

I looked deeply at Athena’s eyes and I just didn't know why I suddenly felt goosebumps all over my body! There was something in her that I couldn't set aside. I even blinked twice, because I couldn't be wrong.

Those eyes… those green pair of eyes!
