Erick suddenly walked in the dinning room and I turned to
my grandma.
“I don’t know what’s wrong with the two of you, but you’re
talking it out, right here and right now”. My grandma said,
stood up and walked out of the dining room.
“June… Please I’d really like it if you listen to me and watch
me explain.” Erick said sitting on the chair in front of me.
“Fine” I dropped my spoon. “You guys kissed, so go ahead
and find the perfect excuse” I sighed.
“It’s not an excuse but the truth” Erick stated.
“Fine then” I breathed out. “tell me this truth” I said.
“Okay so… After rounding up with the role I got in
endanger, the film crew complimented me for my great
acting and decided to celebrate the next night, since it was a
party for me, I couldn’t say no, the whole cast on endanger
was present… Including Giselle.”
The name made my heart tighten and I couldn’t control my
breathing.
.
“The party went on and on that night and I couldn’t help but
get drunk cause they were forcing me to take a glass and I
can’t say no, everyone poured me a glass one by one and I
can’t hold my alcohol. I got drunk so fast I decided to leave.
But was stopped by the film crew again, I started talking to
Giselle and she offered to pour me a drink and then we start
to talk and I swear, I did not recall what happened after that,
I swear with my life June, you have to believe me. I didn’t
know when or why I kissed Giselle please you have to
believe me. The next day I found out about the news, I was
shocked seeing it too please June..
I suddenly stood up. “How can you not realize this excuse is
stupid Erick. I can’t believe this”
“it might sound stupid but it’s the truth!” Erick stood up too.
My eyes start to get wet “I’m sorry but I don’t believe you”.
“Please you have to believe me, if you don’t then I don’t
know how I’ll be able to live anymore.” Erick sighed.
“Maybe you should live by recalling how you don’t recall
kissing Giselle” I said wiped my right eye and walked out of
the dining room.

**ERICK’S P.O.V**
I watched as June walked out of the dinning room, I was
boiling and honestly, I just said the truth, I didn’t know what
to do anymore. I watched to slam the stupid glass cup in
front of my face but I couldn’t cause June’s grandma would
not like that.
I really didn’t know when I kissed Giselle, after the party I
woke up in my room to recieve this strange headache and
the last thing I remembered was drinking a lot at the party
with the film crew. Not until Charles called and told me
how stupid I am of making such a mistake.
I didn’t know what he was talking about i wondered if he
meant drinking so much last night. At that moment I
recieved a message from Charles and it was a link, I clicked
on the link and it took me to a page where the article of
Giselle and I kissing brightening the page and with over
thousands of views. I was shocked, I called Charles back
and asked him where he got the news but he said he just saw
the page on his news app.
Wasting no time I called Giselle’s manager immediately, he
gave me Giselle’s phone number and after calling and
calling her almost twenty times she didn’t pick. I was furious
at that moment, how have I been so careless. Charles sent
another link containing the kiss. How come I remembered
nothing, it was heartbreaking, I was furious at that moment,
so furious and at that same time I recalled June would be
home the day after tomorrow, I was so angry. The thought of
June seeing this, I couldn’t care about anything else. June I
was cracking inside. How have I been so foolish if only I
knew I wouldn’t have gone to that stupid party.
I tried to reach Giselle the whole day, at least she will
clearly know what happened between us but I couldn’t reach
her. And after calling her one last time, the server told me
her phone has been switched off.
Annie called me that same day and she didn’t even let me
speak she just said she couldn’t belive I could so something
so wicked to June.
She didn’t give me time to explain, but who would have
believe me. I was mad. Super mad.
And the day June came back from Mahnline, I prayed and
hoped she hasn’t seen the news but news spread like

wildfire, cause immediately she walked into the living room,
I could already tell by her expression and face that she has
been crying.
I almost broke into pieces at that moment.
.
And now here and now she won’t believe me, who the hell
would believe me.
June’s grandma walked back in the dining room.
“So did you guys make up?” she asked and I shook my head
Negatively.
“Would you like to tell me what happened between you
too?” I shook my head Negatively and she nodded. But then
I paused, I want someone I can actually talk to about this..
June’s grandma and I sat opposite each other and as I told
her the whole story she started.
“I know I’m old, what do I know about teenagers and their
problem but I do know that I watch soap operas a lot and if
that kind of stuff happens it means you’ve been drugged,
your alcohol might have been drugged and some people
hardly recalls what happens to them the next day when they
take a lot of alcohol the previous night, so getting drugged in
alcohol is pretty common, and it’s worst when you can’t hold
your liquor. So you might have been drugged or I’m saying
nonsense.”. June’s grandma laughed.
No of course she’s not saying nonsense, i was definitely
drugged, but who would do it? Giselle?
“No you’re actually making sense, I have to go” I said and in
light speed I walked out of June’s family residence.
I took cab to Charles home for the first time in forever, and
I acknowledged it that the driver recognized me as Erick-J
and he also didn’t fail to remind me of kissing Giselle. Great.
This is what happens when you’re The talk of the time.
I paid the driver and gave him a rueful look, I told him to
keep the change and he smiled.
I walked into Charles living room to see him eating.
“A little knocking would have been nice” he stated.
“Sorry, you know how you also said don’t recalling about
kiss was the dumbest idea and no one would believe me, but
what if I was drugged Charlie, cause I don’t remember
anything, I swear.” I said breathing heavily.
“Okay calm down, and yeah that’s a pretty great alibi, maybe
if the media knows about this, they’ll understand you’re not
such a clumsy artist and boyfriend anyways” Charles said
dropping his food.
I don’t need an alibi for the media but for June.
Charles grabbed his phone and placed a call.
“Yes this is Charles speaking”.
– “And that is exactly why I called.”
– “More than juicy”.
-“Okay I’ll meet you there at four”
-“Yes exactly!”.
Charles cut the phone call and turned to me.
“So have you seen June?” he asked.
“Yeah, and she doesn’t believe me either” I sighed.
“I feel so sorry for her” Charles sighed.
“Why would you feel so sorry for her, feel sorry for me too,
do you think I’m enjoying this, this is like being framed for
what you didn’t do, but then again I did kiss her, a kiss I had
no memory of, do you think I would be in my right mind to
kiss Giselle”.
“You don’t have to yell, I understand where you’re coming
from.” Charles stated.
“I’m just tired, and I’m growing sick of all this, I just don’t
want June…i don’t want her to think I’m such a person”. I
sighed sitting down.
“If you think June’s the only one pained about this, you
should read some comments of you and June shippers”.
Charles said grabbing his bottled water.
“But don’t worry, everything will be fixed, just rely on time”
Charles said assuring and I just breathed out.

~ JUNE’S P.O.V ~
I was literally drowning myself in my own tears, my
grandma is still at my door pounding on it telling me to let
her in but the pounding just rhymed with my aching heart
beat making it feel tightened the more. I feel like I could
shatter any minutes from now. I was cold and I felt like I
suddenly needed someone to tell me it will be okay and hug
me. I didn’t want my grandma for that cause I know she’s on
Eric’s side, but the excuse Erick gave me was the worst and
right now what I can think of is Eric’s lip on Giselle’s lips.
I buried my face in my knees and without making a sound
tears dropped like waterfall from my eyes, it hurts, I was too
tired to cry out loud but I couldn’t stop crying.
The pounding on my door stopped and I realized my
grandma must have left.

Suddenly I heard a soft knock on the door and Annie’s
voice followed it. “June open the door it’s me”.
I sniffed and turned to the door.
Annie.
I realised she was the only person that could make me get up
and open the door.
She hugged me immediately she saw me and I couldn’t help
to cry even more. We humans tend to get weak when we
finally see a shoulder we can lean on.
“Now, now don’t cry anymore June” Annie said wiping my
eyes.
She closed the door behind her and took me to the bed to sit.
I noticed a bottled water in her hand and she handed it to
me saying I should drink it. Of course it was from our
refrigerator.
Drinking the water kind of helped stopped me from crying.
Annie sighed and sat beside the bed as I gave shuddering
sobs.
“I don’t even know what to say” Annie sighed. “I just can’t
believe this, I mean not in a thousand words will someone
tell me and I’d believe if the person would say Erick would
do this. I don’t even know what to say” Annie stated and
huffed angrily.
“And worst of all Giselle, when I saw the news…
Annie paused when she noticed me crying.
“So sorry June” Annie quickly apologized.
“It’s not your fault, don’t apologize” I sniffed cleaning my
eyes but the tears keeps coming.
I start to cry “I thought he was different Annie. But when he
said he doesn’t remember when he kissed her”.
Suddenly my cry wasn’t so silent anymore.
“Don’t cry June” Annie said patting my shoulder but I didn’t
stop.
“It’s going to be alright you’re only going to worn yourself
out if you keep crying” Annie said her face squeezing into a
frown.
“June it’s okay” she said and her voice faded.
And suddenly she starts to cry too.
“Who do you think you are anyways” Annie yelled as tears
streamed down her eyes. “You think you’re the only one
who’s pained, I’m not enjoying this too you know, you think
I enjoy seeing you this way.” Annie sniffed.
“Yes I know Erick broke your heart, he broke mine too and
you’re not the only one who’s going to cry about it, you
think I don’t enjoy seeing you smile, and if you think you’re
the only one who get to cry about this, you’re not” Annie
cried wiping her tears.
