Chapter 6

"WHAT??" asked Maya as she she was shocked to what Jake had said to her.

"You heard me right. I asked you to be my slave. You just have to follow all my order and if you don't follow it, you will face the consequences. But if you don't even agree on this deal, it is easy. You have to pay for my jacket. You know my jacket is not cheap like the one from the thrift shop one." said Jake bragging about his branded jacket.

Maya still contemplating about what Jake said at that time. She was confused. Can she endure the pain of being a slave to someone she just know for a day and moreover the guy has the same name as her old friend. What will waiting for her when she became his slave. He is a bully and for sure Maya will always get bullied if she agreed to it. But what if she don't want to accept it, can she payback the jacket. It might cost a fortune and where can she find the money to pay to him? She don't want to asked her parents as she don't even want to make them worried about her school life.

"Okay, I will be your slave. But may I know for how long so I can prepare my mentality." said Maya confident enough to her choice. She had to say that as she don't have any other choice except those two illogical choice. Who dare to be someone slave? And who dare to pay a big amount of money just for a piece of branded jacket except for those rich people? Probably not Maya herself.

"Well, let's see how well you can be. If you really follow all my words and my order, you can stop be my slave withing a week. But if you decided to not follow it even once, it might be for the whole year or worst, the whole of your school life until you graduate." said Jake while laughing to himself. Maya just held herself in. If she had to follow her inner self, Jake's face might have bruise everywhere from the punches that Maya want to give but she calmed herself down.

"Okay, fine. If you don't have anything to say, I will excuse myself. Excuse me." said Maya and she almost set herself free from Jake but her wrist has been captured from behind. She was shocked.

"Oh honey. You know your work start today and you realised that you already late for class. How about you hang up with me at the rooftop?" asked Jake as he still held Maya's hand.

"No no. I have to get in class now. I don't want to miss anything. My mum might kill me if she knew I dumped my own class just for someone like you." said Maya and trying to free herself from Jake's grip.

"But what will you say to the teacher that you are late. You know I am the bad guy in this school and if you tell your teacher that you met me behind this school, your teacher might think that we did something inappropriate thing. Do you want it to happen?" said Jake while releasing his grip on her hand.

Then reality hit Maya as she was digesting what Jake had said. It was true. Jake was the bully and when she tell people that she met Jake because they have something to discuss, people for sure think the negative thing. Whether she want it or not, she have to follow Jake to the rooftop.

When they reached the rooftop, Jake close the door and decide to sit at the bench that was on the rooftop. He tap the seat beside him for Maya to sit. But Maya shake her head as a no to Jake.

"So I think I should make you my slave for a month. You have been not following my order for second time just in 30 minutes." said Jake while watching her face.

Maya just sighed and take a seat beside Jake.Then suddenly, Jake close his eyes while putting the earpods in his ears. He was calming himself and enjoy the breeze of the autumn season.

Maya just focusing her vision on the busy city that was full of moving vehicle around the city. Probably people was busy to go to their work or school or anywhere.

Jake open his left eye to spare a glance towards the petite body if the girl beside him. He thought that he might seen somewhere else but he cannot remember it. He then put one of his earpod in Maya's ear. His action make the scared girl shocked.

"Oh my god. You don't have to do it like that. You make m shocked. What will happened if I had a heart attack?" said Maya while rubbing her racing heart.

"Then you will be dead." said Jake and close his eyes again.

Maya just let out her unsatisfied breath that she had been holding since she meet him this morning.

Maya went to the cafeteria to fill up her tu.my with some delicious food after spent almost two hours with Jake at the rooftop. She walk down the hallway and found her bestfriend, Jenny but her bestfriend was with someone else. She decided to not call out for her and just follow her from behind.

Jenny went to the janitors room with someone. Maya don't know who is the 'someone' that Jenny walking with as Maya still cannot remember the student in the school. So Maya earsdropping Jenny and the 'someone' conversation.

"I want you to tell me all the things that Maya does everyday. She went to the toilet or anything. Just keep an eye on her. That is simple right?" asked the person.

"But why? I am her bestfriend. And I am not going to that to her." said Jenny.

"Oh so you don't want to be in our group. Then it's fine. Your loss." said the person.

"Okay fine Amanda. I will do it but I am never going to harm Maya. She is the first bestfriend I have ever had." said Jenny that make Maya shook.

Maya never thought that Jenny will be double faces towards her. She thought that Jenny was the best bestfriend that will never hurt their own bestfriend. But look what she heard and see. And the other is Amanda.

Maya immediately run away from there and went back to the rooftop with teary eyes. She sit behind the door and cry a lot. She never knew someone can lie to her just because they want to get what they want. Maya started to think that she may be the bad friend that people don't want to friend with.

Maya decided not to go to class for the rest of the day. She just don't want people to ask why she has a runny nose with the red eyes. So she just sit there and calming herself down.
