I got back on the condominium. "I'm so bored of living alone... Hope that my parents will visit me here someday" I said as I opened the door then slammed my bad on the floor... I ate my sandwich then looked into the clock...

"Oh it's almost 9 pm I better be in bed," I told myself so I went towards the bedroom then sat beside my bed.

"Inhale, Exhale... Dexter, you can do this" I said while expressing myself towards the mirror...

"That Marcus can't drag you down... you are stronger than he is," I said as I tried to lift me up

"You can show them what's inside of you," I thought then I stood up then sat in front of my desk. I held my pen then grabbed a sheet of paper then started to continue writing my Novel's next part:

'...As I walked outside the plane I saw a bunch of my friends waiting for me below, I let my baggage go then ran towards them. "Hey! I missed you all so much" I told them all then gave off a thoughtful hug.

"Wait for me over there," I said then guided them towards the other side of the airport. I ran back to my suitcase then followed them. Out of a sudden, there was an airplane going to crash on my back. "JON!!!" they shouted to me. "RUNN!!" They all cried out. I tried to run as fast as I could but I was too late... Everything just went black.

THE END'

Finally, I finished my first ever book. I gazed towards the clock then noticed that more than an hour had already passed. I arranged the papers that I had written on on my organizers. I sprawled on the bed then pulled my covers up, reaching my shoulders.

beep beep beep

I woke up due to the sound created by the alarm. My eyes slowly unfolded "finally... I woke up" I thought then I started to stretch myself on the bed.

ahhhh-hhaaaaaa, I yawned

I took a glimpse outside the window then saw a robot handling a vial of blue liquid... "ROBOT?!?" I rushed towards the window then opened it but-- It's gone...

"It's a good thing it's Saturday unless I'll be late for class by now..." I thought

Out of a sudden, my doorbell rang, I looked through the peephole then saw-- "Hershey?" I asked the twisted the doorknob. "yeah, It's me again..." she said, "Hope that I hadn't bothered you in any sort of way" she added then chuckled

"Wanna go with me for a morning stroll?" she asked

"I'd love to but... I still hadn't eaten breakfast" I responded "If you wanted to... you can eat with me, I'm about to cook pancakes" I suggested

"Umm... ok, I'll help you then" She answered

I opened the door then let her in, prepared all the ingredients then mixed them all together. "I don't know that your this fun to be with," I told her then smiled

"I also don't know that you have such hospitality like this" she replied then be both chuckled.

I set the dishes aside then I said-"Hershey, let's go walk together!"

We both walked outside the room then entered the elevator. I pressed the Ground Floor sign, while the elevator continues to go down, a question came out of my mouth-

"Why do you go approach to someone who never is even worthy to have a friend?"

"What do you mean?" she asked

"I don't know, It just bothers me somehow" I replied while staring at my shoes

"Umm, let's just say that... I hate seeing someone looking down on himself" she answered then gave a grin

pshhhhhh, the doors of the elevator opened

We both walked out the elevator then glanced at the rising Sun's rays. "Let's go to the park," She said. We both ran toward the park's gates then sat on the benches located on its corners.

"Actually..." I said, "Actually what?" Hershey asked

"Umm, actually-- I had never experienced having a friend like you since pre-school" I answered

"Really? I'd never known that but, I'm glad that I'd helped someone" she said then smiled

Out of a sudden, Hershey's phone started to ring

"Oh, wait... It's my Mom" She exclaimed so I nodded

"Hi mom...really... oh ok.... see you then," She said then stored her phone in her pocket

"Sorry but I ought to go..." she told me then sighed, "My mom is going to pick me up in front of the Mall" She appended, "But cheer up... I'll still see you on the trip on Monday! See you!" She said then waved her hand.

I stared at her while she ran away, I then felt like an arrow of sadness pierced through me. "I feel like she'll leave me someday like the others," I thought, "Is this what it feels to be left by someone?" I asked myself.

I looked at the table and saw-- "a piece of paper?" I asked myself, "Hershey might have left this," I thought. Me, being naturally curious slowly unfolded the piece of yellow paper saying: "I feel like you'll think of negative thoughts I time I left that's why I left this here to remember you to always think of positive thoughts :)"

I took a deep breath then smiled while placing the letter in front of my chest. I stared at her seat and saw her coin purse. "Nooo, she left it. I'll just bring it back to her on the trip"

I started to walk towards the condominium. I grabbed my phone then put my headphones on then played the music.

'Together (Prince Humpry)

We do are diverse but together alike

Parallel sights, similar likes

Our problems we burn up and shatter

We'll watch as it leaves the ashes floating on air

Shouting our battle cry together

As we go up the stage stomping louder'

I entered the elevator then pressed the third-floor button. I walked at the halls happily while holding the note from her. Out of a sudden, a person on my back whispered to me-

"There's no pre-si-dent to save you now" so I looked back surprised because I saw Marcus

"Excuse me," I said then crossed his left side

Out of a sudden, he crossed my way then covered my path with his hand.

"A nerd won't get passed me easily" he exclaimed then laughed

"I'm in real trouble," I thought

"What is your problem?" I asked boldly

"I've got no problem. You just irritate me" He responded

"Dexter... you need to face him," I thought

"Wait a sec--" I replied, "... are you really irritated with me? or you just hate yourself that's why you placed your anger on others" I replied sharply

"Your little--" He replied then closed his fist tight ready to punch me

"Ok then--" I replied then spread my arms "--if that will make you happy then do it" I added while trying not to cry

His eyes figuratively turned red as he lifted his fist in the air. Suddenly someone called out Marcus' name-

"Marcus... Marcus... tenth time, tenth time" Hershey cried out, "I didn't expect to see you here" she added

"I'll be back tomorrow" he whispered to me then walked down the stairs

"Why.... why are you here?" I asked Hershey

"You know... I left my coin purse here right?" she asked

"You mean this?--" I asked when grabbed out the coin purse from my pocket

"Yeah, that's mine" she answered, "thanks a lot" she added then shook my hand

"Bye, my Mom's waiting below," she said then chuckled nervously so I then nodded the waved my hand.

I twisted the doorknob then entered my room. I lied down the bed then asked myself "what next?". I stared at my phone waiting for a notification. I feel like I've been waiting for more then an hour until-

Ding, the phone said

"Yeahhhh" I shouted while swirling around the room. I switched the phone on then noticed something disturbing, It says-

"You look hot in that shirt especially the weather's sunny". Like other persons- I looked around then peeked out the window, I can't look at the other building's inside because the sun is about to set.

Ding, the phone once again said

I feel like my hands are literally trembling as I read the next message-

"Don't look around... you'll never see me..."

I immediately ran towards the windows to enclose the blinds in my room the moment I read that line then blocked his account to cease him from messaging me again. I pressed her profile to trace her real identity but I found absolutely nothing. I attached my phone to the laptop to attempt to hack inside her profile. Little by little, the facts rise. I received his real birth date, phone number, and web search history.

I first checked out her search history because most of the data fall down here... What I saw truly made my hair stand

"She's obsessed with me," I thought as I carefully scrolled down every single thing she did

I saw my name in almost everything she searched for. Out of a sudden, my laptop's screen turned red then gave a warning sign that says: "[Warning: data is programmed to delete by itself after leakage is sensed]"

I panicked as I watch the data folders disappear. I tried to copy one of the folders while the time's still not out. "[data copy success]" a robotic voice said then my screen automatically turned back to blue. I lied on the floor then took a deep breath while gawking at my shaking palms.

knock knock knock

I gazed at the peephole then saw my-

"MOM AND DAD?!". I immediately opened the door then hugged them both. "So, what made you come here?" I asked

"We just want to check you out" my Mom answered. I starred at my dad for seconds waiting for a reply then I suddenly observed that He's looking on my back. I turned my head around then saw "MY LAPTOP'S STILL TURNED ON?! uh oh trouble"

My dad suddenly bend down his knees then said: "How many times will I tell you that stop practicing hacking other persons again?"

"But... but.," I said

"But what?" he asked with his eyebrows uneven

"N-no, nothing. I'm sorry, It won't happen again" I replied solemnly

"Good" He replied, "You don't want to make the police officers invading into your room managing right?" He asked. I smiled then nodded my head.

"Want to eat dinner with me?" I asked

"Of course! that's why we're here. We got dinner" My mom said then hugged me, "I missed you" she added

I cleaned the table then prepared our dinner. While we're eating, my Mom asked me a question-

"I heard that some of your schoolmates are going on a field trip, are you going on one to?"

"Oh, yes, I forgot to tell you that we have a field trip " I answered, "We are going to Main Science Headquarters. Can I go?" I asked them both.

"Of course! Well, It's like Your life's dream to go there" My dad answered

"Thanks! I promise that I'll do my best there" I replied while my eyes continue to sparkle.

After minutes, my parents finished eating dinner then bestowed their goodbyes to me-

"Bye Dexter, We promise that we'll visit you once more in the future," My dad said then they waved their hands while the elevator's doors slowly close.

Dragged my laptop while walking towards my bedroom preparing to go to sleep. I lied on my bed then opened my laptop...

"Oh, no... I forgot--" I said as I glanced at the webcam of my laptop and saw that It's turned on. I literally felt a breeze of freezing wind passed by me.
