Chapter 18: Rachael

*THUD**BANG*

"You've heard him, right?" 

Just when I told Rachael about my relationship with Anna, out of nowhere, Anna appeared on the rooftop. Well, it's not that she couldn't come here, but I thought that as a teacher, she wouldn't have the time.

Anna came close to me and hugged me tightly, planting a kiss on my lips. 

"I would like to have a talk with you Rachael, if you wouldn't mind?"[ANNA]

"....."[RACHAEL]

Taking her silence as a yes, Anna turned to me and gave me another kiss.

"You should go now Ally. Let's talk about it at night" and with a swift motion, she and Rachael were out of my sight again. As the lunch break is about to get over, I then went towards my class.

#RACHAEL'S POV#

Hello there! As you know me already, I am Rachael. Well, for the starters you already know how deeply I'm ln love with Allen aka Ally already. He's the only man that I want. If by any chance he doesn't exist, I'll also choose to die. Nononononono, NO!!!!! He can't die!!!! He's mine!!! MINE!!!!!

*COUGH* *COUGH* 

Sorry for getting distracted there. I can't help getting a 'little' bit of possessive and jealous when it's about him. Is this what they call 'being mad in love'? Anyways, the main point is that I love him very much.

Talking about past, it's nothing worth mentioning. I belong to the high class society of our country because of my grandfather's business. My grandfather opened a restaurant long ago and he and my father worked together to take it to a whole different level. Now, my father is the CEO of the group and his restaurants are among the costliest and best ones in the world and of course it's no.1 in our country. 

Being raised in culinary environment, I can say that I have decent knowledge about it and my dishes can rival those of topmost chefs.

About my mother, she was the best talent of her time, and her and father were considered best of their times. Have I mentioned that along with having business skills, my father is also a masterchef. Listening to their story reminds me of that food-something something anime, with my father like that Nakiri girl, and mother like that yukihira boy. Simply speaking, my mother was outgoing extrovert and father, strict introvert.

Since initial days, they both preferred giving time to their work, and so I grew almost all on my own. It maybe rude of me to say this, but I also treated them like ATM machines. My parents, being outside all the time, gave me quite the freedom with finances. It's not like they intentionally ignored me or anything, it's just that they were unable to manage between both work and me. 

Everytime they returned, we would go on trip and whatsoever. Eventually, I was getting fed up ofthis and simply told them to go and do their work and not to bother with me. My mother was devastated as I could see her tear-laden face, and father saying things like 'I'm so disappointed by myself, I'd been so negligent father that now my baby girl prefers to stay away from me' and so on. 

I couldn't give a shit about this. They chose their priorities back then. To earn more and gain reputation was more important than taking care of me. I respect their decision. So, I chose to not let them bother with me. They can go and earn whatever they want and if they want, they can have another child.

Quite selfish, right? Twisted, right? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha, YES!!! That's what I am. A selfish bi*ch who only yearned for her parent's love and her parents, instead of giving her that, chose to go on some lousy vacations and preferred to work there too telling her to play on her own and not to bother them. I even heard them saying things like they should've had their first child after sometime. 

That was the breaking point for me. If they chose to prioritize their work, then why did they chose to have me? If it's work and career they want, then they should just prioritize it rather than wasting their valuable time on me. 

At that time, I had quite the amount with me that I can open any business and had it run by my butler. Oh! I've forgotten to introduce Jason. He's my butler from my grandfather's time, and now he's under my direct command.

My parents sternly refused my request, my mother getting all teary and all, and father stubbornly refusing to allow to live by my own.

After a lot of negotiations, it was decided that I will live at a new place and all my expenses will be funded by my parents. My mother even declared that she'll quit her job to look after me which I refused. It was too late for that.

Afterwords, I was quite young at that time and due to my nature, people felt uncomfortable approaching me. I don't give a shit about that. In the first place, I don't need things like 'acquaintances'.

It was then I met a weird boy at the gym I went to. He appealed to me because his eyes had the same look I had, albeit, his were a lot colder than me. It felt like he never even considered anybody as a human. Being intrigued by him, I approached him. At first, he was stubborn to talk and often ignored me, but as time passed by, he opened up to me. I had Jason check his background. As expected, his past was more miserable than mine. I couldn't even compare to what he had faced. I ran a background check on his aunt too, but, I received a fair warning that she isn't someone I could approach. 

I started spending time with him. At gym, at his house, in his bedroom (not in that way) and everywhere. I don't know when, but I started to see him more than an acquaintance. His looks, his cold personality, his indifference, I was charmed by all of it. It all developed into obsession. Unhealthy, if I must say. But, who cares? I started to believe in this thing called 'love'.

But when one day, he told me that he was going back to his hometown, I resisted the urge to kill his family. I also transferred schools along with him. 

I know that he's aware of my love for him, but with the trauma he's gone through, I decided to take it slow and steady. I wanted him to accept me with the bottom of his heart. 

But one day, I observed him with our homeroom teacher miss Anna. I knew about her. She also had the past with him. I thought that it was more like of acquaintance, but after observing that look on her face, I realized that I fuc*ed up. I was late. Anna looked like a maiden in love. It was the love of a woman towards the one and only man she liked her whole life. I decided to directly ask Allen about it. It was my mistake for taking it slow. I should've crossed that line back then.
