Not in the mood

Mico POV

It's kind of tiring wherein I don't know when will this community service be done, we been doing it for almost 4 days because Claire has extended it for two more days since we have done something she is really mad at us even those girls did the same thing like paying it back to us and my whole body is aching which I can't move a bit but I still need to finish the community service if I don't want to get another week of cleaning the whole school. But right now, we're on the women's restroom trying to clean every cubicle here because I just really want it to be done instead of complaining or else it will take me until afternoon to finish everything.

It's day-4 of our community service and yet we're just done cleaning the field because it's too messy and there are a lot of athletes still using the field for the upcoming game next month wherein they're going to represent the school in another country. It's a good thing we didn't get to see that josh or else james will definitely going to smash his face without thinking anything. I hope Claire knows what really happen that day and we don't want her just to know one sided story. Actually, we don't know what happen that day when Claire told us to leave them two alone to talk about something then I just go ahead in the storage room since I still need to finish everything.

The storage room is no joke it consist like more than 3 rooms already. When there are a lot of boxes, chairs, tables, costumes, equipments and other yet it's really dirty. I just thought of taking a rest for awhile since my body can't take it any longer. We've been cleaning every area of the school such as the campus, music room, studio, theatre, classroom, office, gym, swimming pool, restroom, laboratory, auditorium and even the office of his cousin and uncle.

"Dude, the video has gone viral" benjamin said and he seems to be happy

"1 million views of this video, isn't that funny? Can't even imagine their faces" charles said while laughing

"100k comments and 200k shares" james added

That's not yet where the game start and you'll see it later because she won't even get laughed anymore

"I didn't get to see that girl jamie?"

"Me too, yesterday they were only three"

"It seems to me, that jamie got sick I think"

I don't know if I should laugh or feel sad about it but the thing is that I've been weird lately and I feel like this semester will be a hell since we miss already the other subject but I hope there's no discussion yet

"Hey mico, are you alright? Because you seem to be bothered" benjamin notice it but I don't have any problem at all

"Ah nothing, I'm fine" I said and smile

"Now it's the time for you tell us, where were you that night? Your cousin is been looking for you and she ask us to stay with her until you arrive since she is alone and a bunch of jerks trying to approach her yet we keep her safe so that no one bothered her" charles said

"We been calling you more than ten times, but we cannot reach you. Did something happen to you?" benjamin asked while looking at me serious

"Mico, we know you and don't even dare try to lie because you're trying to avoid this kind of question which you can't even give us an answer"

Why are these two serious? As if a war happens to them asking me all of these question

"Well, I just went to the hotel then my mom called me saying that she sent me a package so I went to the mall to get it" I said and it seems that they don't believe me

"This is the reason I never tell anything to you guys, because you don't even believe in what I say so I prefer keeping it to myself" I said which I start to mop the floor

"Okay fine, we believe you" charles stop asking question because he knew that I hate a lot of question if it is not that important at all

"Actually, we passed by the storage room then you weren't there and same goes to that jamie girl" benjamin said and why do he keep staring at me? Is there something on my face or what?

"Then I saw a phone on the floor and I thought of getting it because someone might look for it then it suddenly ring and I saw the person calling. Guess what? It's the annoying girl name alexis and I think the phone belonged to that jamie" charles explained

"Have you returned the phone of jamie?" I said

"Dude, why do you sound worried about her? Don't tell me you like her?" charles said

"Have you returned the phone of jamie!"

"Mico, just relax. Why do you seem be aggressive? Don't worry, I already return the phone of jamie" he said and I feel its fine now

"Mico, are you alright? Don't tell me that you like her?" benjamin said

"Dude, what's the matter with you? You seem to be intense and you're not in your right mind" james added and I don't know maybe I just really need to take a rest

"Sorry about that dude, I'm just tired right now" I apologized to charles

"Girl, did you hear? Jamie collapsed that night in the storage room and someone saved her"

"I know right"

"I hope she is fine, because I feel sorry for her if she get sick and I feel sad right now"

"You know what? There's a video that has gone viral and the music queen band are in that video. I don't know who post that but I hate them"

"Dude, they were hilarious"

"I didn't know they get bullied here in our school"

"Well I find them stupid, if they already know they're getting bullied maybe they should at least act or do something"

"Dude, I thought you were a fan of them"

"I was but there's nothing I can do about it"

"Maybe let us just comfort them"

I really hate hearing this kind of gossip all over the campus and wherever you go this rumors can't be stop because this give them interest the most

"Girl did you see that"

"Especially that jamie, lovely and alexis"

"I think they're going to explode anytime and want to kill mico, charles, and benjamin"

"I notice that michelle is really quiet and you don't know if she has other intention too"

"Shh.. someone might hear you camille and zip your mouth"

"Well, it's true and I don't like them coming near with our babies"

"What did they say again?"

"I think that jamie said she is going to kill mico"

"Then while alexis wants to kill charles"

"But I think they were felt wronged and we don't know them at all Camille"

"I don't even care as long as they don't do anything stupid with our babies"

"Let's just go or someone will might hear you"

I guess I shouldn't be worry about anything since everything is fine now and they're back at it again which make me want to go somewhere without feeling worry

"Students really love gossiping" james said and I think we have bullied them enough but I don't know if I should feel sorry to myself for doing this because I already broke the promise I made with my little sister

"Do you know who post this video?"

"Don't ask me because I don't know either, but it's stupid for them do that because they're going to make the music queen band get ruined and their image might get a lot of haters right now"

"I feel pity for those four girls"

"Well, I find them all cute and they still nailed it"

"We should stop talking about them because it's not right for us make any rumors that we don't even know about the whole story"

"This is the reason why I hate getting involve of being bullied"

They are really mad and let that happen until they leave the school. I think I need to go to the beach later to relax and to think about myself for awhile than anything else that bother. I just really miss my little sister and how I wish she is here with me especially going to the beach. I still remember that she loves travelling and an adventurous person she is. After I clean here, I might take a vacation in US and visit my little sister because she might already sad because I didn't get to come by.

They always say that we should stop returning to the same place that broke us and the memories that hurt us. No matter how much the time we have then you're not going to find healing there. Only empty rooms and broken windows had. I should onto the promise I made to my little sister that I should be happy and forget that things that made me feel upset. I'm going to keep that promise.

*****************

Alexis POV

It's a great time for me to reflect on what just happened today and I'm not in the right mood to talk to anyone because I might hurt someone feeling if I say harsh words which eventually I can be treated as a bad person. You know that were on a judgmental society, people tend to judge you because of the mistakes you have done than seeing the good deeds you did for them. I don't know I just really hate when someone spread rumors about you even without knowing truth. I always become naïve with these kinds of things but I tend to misunderstand some other situation that I'm facing.

I know I become stubborn sometimes, well mostly I stop being like that even it cracks the mood out. I mean, it doesn't me that much trying to be ignorant and arrogant at the same which it's kind of obvious that I'm not really what they think I am. Probably, they can't hate me at all no matter how long the rumors take or people tend to spread gossips about me I didn't mind about it. As of now, it's really embarrassing because they will think that we're stupid doing that hilarious dance even we don't know what the reason for them to do that and post it on the other social media. Maybe I should just think they don't have better things to do in this school than to bully the other students.

"You have an incoming call from my baby boy"

Wow, it took 8 years for him to call me and I think he is not busy right now.

"Hi"

"Alexis!" I knew he miss me a lot

"Wow, claude! You're big man now and where is clyde? Your twin"

"Well, in the kitchen cooking some food for us since mom and dad will visiting us"

"Really? How nice of him"

"Are you with jamie?" – claude

"No, I'm not"

"Why? I want to see her" – claude

"Claude, I know you like her then why don't you call her instead of me?"

"I'm a bit shy because she might not answer my call" – claude

"Then, what do you want me to do?"

"Can you set up a date for me with her?" – claude

"I'm not part of a matchmaking agency and also just court her okay?"

"Come on, you know that you're my favorite cousin" – claude

"Stop making excuses and you should act quickly or else you lose the chance"

"Yah! Alexis!" – claude

"What! Just stating the facts and they are a lot of boys here will court jamie"

"Aren't against of it?" – claude

"Against of what, claude?"

"Well, he's afraid of you and if claude try to court your friend" – clyde

"Hi, clyde"

"How have you been? Let say, it's been 8 years since the last time we talked and have a date because some girls are really annoying you know that. Bunch of girls who only know how to seduce or flirt to a guy. Not my style at all" – clyde

"I know right? They thought that you were my boyfriend and I just let them until they get tired of it then there's nothing I can do about it"

"I guess so, but still we did act as one and I can't stop laughing at their reaction" – clyde then he went back to the kitchen

"Wait, are you eating well there? Abby just told me that you transfer to another school and I hope you're doing great in your school and clyde doesn't even know about it" – claude

There is really big difference with my favorite twins. Clyde is a serious and smart guy who always studies a lot of course in college then he never had a girlfriend because he is always busy in the university being the president of five organizations and won a lot of trophies which everyone is insecure of him. After that, they try to ruin him just because of false rumor but he is not affected at all. Once you get to know him, you don't know how sweet and talkative he is, if you were close to me. He really hates strangers and girls who are clumsy and nosy. His ideal type is someone who can take care of him and always stay by his side than someone who only knows how to be pretty.

While for me Claude, he is jolly and caring because he tend to apologize immediately if the situation is getting worse and don't want to be in a situation of having some a bit misunderstanding. He is also smart and loves to play with kids which he is becoming childish too. His ideal type is a girl who is cute, sweet, knows how to cute, huggable and has a funny side. He really likes talking to anyone and he is not a picky person at all.

"How about you alexis? Do you have a boyfriend?" – claude

"No I don't and it's a waste of time for me to take care of a guy then as you can see I'm always busy at school"

"Well that excuse of yours alexis won't work on me" – clyde

"Clyde, maybe she is really busy right now" – claude

"Isn't it obvious claude that she doesn't have a boyfriend?" – clyde

"Okay you two, stop fighting. It's true that I don't have a boyfriend and also I'm busy"

"Does being a vice president in student council giving you hard time?" – clyde

"No, not really but I'm not a student council anymore since I transfer to another school"

"What! Seriously? Why didn't you tell us? Or Is just me who don't know about it?" – clyde

"Relax clyde, actually claude know about it. Since my little sister told her"

"Claude, why didn't you tell me about it?" – clyde

"Well, you're not even asking" – claude

"Okay you two, stop now"

"We just apply in your school because we thought you were there and I have a chance to bond with you" – clyde

"Alexis, can you just go back to the music academy? So that I could get close with jamie" – claude

"I'm sorry claude, but it's our friendship tradition to transfer to another school and you know that"

"But, I want to court jamie" – claude

"Then come and visit us here. But don't blame me if you get rejected by her okay"

"I know, its fine as long as I can be friends with her" – claude

"Hey stop with that lovey dovey of yours claude" – clyde

"Well, you also like michelle, don't you?" – claude

"I know, that is why I never show it that much" – clyde

"Come on you two, stop it or else I won't talk to you two again if you fight"

"Okay sorry alexis and claude" – clyde

"Anyway, don't you have a class?" – clyde

"Well I do have"

"Then what are you doing right now? Won't you get caught by the professor using your gadgets?" – clyde

"Not really, I'm in the library right now and going back to the class in a bit"

"Are you having a problem right now alexis?" – clyde

"Not really, why?"

"I think you do have" – clyde

"Stop doing that mind reader habit of yours clyde"

"Well he is always like that because when everytime a girl confess to her he tends to observe the girl than having a conversation with her" – claude

"Claude, zip your mouth" – clyde

"Just stating the facts" – claude

These twins are really cute and when everytime they argue it seems that we will have logic reasoning on their answer and question that bounce back

"Okay anyway, I need to go now since I still have a class"

"Bye alexis, visit us okay?" – claude

"See you soon lexia and bring your friends with you" – clyde

Claude ended the call and they have mature enough already. Actually we're on the same age but it seems like I'm the oldest one. I probably go back to the room now since I'm already late and the professor would scold me

I saw a message then it's from michelle and jamie. I should read it maybe it's important because I don't usually check my messages and email that much if it is not urgent at all which it is just bothering me

From: Jumbo Mumbo

"Where are you? The class will start and I hope you'll attend it because the professor might look for you"

From: Flower Girl

"Just go back in the class, if you're fine now and we will wait for you to calm down because we know that you're not in the mood and you I'm worry about you. Text me back if you receive this message"

I should go back now in the room since I still have classes to attend then I notice there are a lot of students outside the library which I don't know what's happening but I just didn't mind of it and just pass through them even it's a bit crowded here

"Dude, isn't she the girl on the video?"

"Yah you're right, she is. That video has gone viral and it's no joke like right now it's on 10 million views already and the comments are really insane. How could they put negative words?"

Here we go again with these students who really love gossiping about you even they know what the real story is but they only believe on what they see than to look what is really the truth. I don't know either when will they stop doing that because they don't know what you really feel because they only care about facts or lies than what really happen to you. Then, they call me boyish like as if I'm like that wherein it's not even funny and where did they get the guts to say that without thinking twice?

"Omg, it's alexis. She is so pretty in personal"

"You're right, but I do feel sorry for her and I hope those four boys should stop making some trouble with the transferees"

"You know what? We should start protecting the music queen band because I don't want to see them getting bullied by those boys"

"I want to have a picture together with her"

"Girl, isn't she the girl on the cafeteria the day when she hold the collar of charles which everyone seems to be shocked"

"Ha that girl, but charles is the one who did something"

"How did you know that?"

"Well someone saw him spilling water on those books and alexis don't know anything about that"

"Dude, I think she is going to break my face and we should stay away from her"

Then some girls approached which I try to keep a distance because I'm not in the mood to do something that would attract a lot of attention in this school because I just want to behave without making any mistakes and I don't want my little sister get worried about me which it will make it even hard for her to concentrate in her studies

They handed me something and it's a letter with food

"Cheer up alexis. Even they try to mock you but we're here for you"

"Smile because it suits you well"

"Don't mind that person who post the video on the websites"

"Fighting alexis, you'll get through it"

That made me smile somehow and they already left. I can't believe there are students who's going to comfort or cheer you up when you're feeling down these days and they know the situation you are in not like others they try to mock and intimate you because they find it funny even it's not but they don't care about the feelings of others as long as it makes them happy and fill their satisfaction. Sometimes, I just let it be wherein they'll get tired of it anyway. Maybe I won't take anything as a big deal and just go with the flow until it lay low because people will soon forget it.

Lovely POV

I really hate going to school like not in the mood to listen to the professors today but michelle going to scold if I skip classes and I don't want my parents know about it especially my two elder siblings who's going to get mad at me if I do that.

This academy really sucks at everything, the students are weird and I met an annoying jerk who end up ruining my peaceful like attending in the school like he don't have better thing to do and same goes with his freaking loser friends! I don't know when will they going to stop bullying us or doing some stuff that make us want to leave the academy. It's not funny at all because I only want to graduate this college and yet I will make myself get involved into a mess school.

Why didn't we check the website thoroughly? Because all the feedbacks on the website is not even true and they say it's a famous school because there are artist and cool kids studying in Stanford high academy yet they give false reviews. I think it's more famous on bullying and being gangster at all.

First day of class, students are really weird when we just want to ask question but they keep avoiding us which we don't even get why they're doing that? They we figured it out those boys hate transferee students acting like a bunch of kids who don't know anything. I find them childish from doing such a cruel things and could it be possible for us to have peaceful and quiet life as living ordinary students?

We always end up with rumors even it's kind of sick of hearing it since it's not even true. Why do we have this tradition called transfer to another school even it's kind of tiring to move out to another house?

First, we studied in Royal Lunar Academy since we thought it was peaceful but there are a lot of students who recognized us and then take advantage of us which they know we are famous. Second, we transferred Dawn High Academia which the cousin of alexis are studying there and we find it friendly because the students treat as ordinary students but we met some bully girls who try to ruin our reputation due to their insecurities.

Third, we transferred to another school which is the Music Academy then we lasted 3 years since the school is friendly and also the principal who always take care of us when have some trouble on the events. Then lastly, transferred here in the Stanford High Academy which we thought we could enjoy our last year of college but we guess were wrong about that and there are bunch of bullies.

My phone ring then I answered it without looking at the screen

"Who's calling?"

"Is that how you speak to your mom?"

Oh gosh, it's my mom. What will I tell her now? Since I'm not in the class at the moment and started to look for a place which looks like a classroom set-up or else I'll get caught at any time

"Mom! Nice to hear your voice again" then I laugh a bit so it won't have dead air and feel awkward since this is the only time she has called me after 10 years

"Yes of course sweetie. Mommy misses you a lot and I think I have time to call you every day since our entire business trip is done and I might visit you in US" – Mom

I forgot to tell my mom about transferring to another school

"Sweetie, why do you feel nervous? Don't tell me you're in trouble right now? Where are you friends? Are you in class right now? Tell me sweetie, how is school? Did you have great time?" – Mom

How can I answer all of her question? When I can't even tell her about transferring to another school which she will make a fuss about it and scold me for moving out again even its not plan doing it then afterwards she will calm down and smile at me because she don't want to see me feeling sad with giving big deal on the small things.

"Not really mom, I'm just a little bit sleepy right now. I'm not in trouble and my friends are at home doing some things. Our class is done and we're on vacation. About school, well its great mom and I have a great time studying" my hands are shaking and I really hate lying to my mom. Maybe I'll just tell her in the right time if dad won't figure out about today

"I think you need a sleep sweetie, because your voice is a bit crack" – Mom

"No it's fine mom"

"I'll call you later sweetie since me and your dad need to take a rest for awhile" – Mom

"Okay mom, I love you"

"I love you too, sweetie and take care always" – Mom

I ended the call and I can finally breathe now because that almost kills me. I don't think I can't lie to mom and it scares me a lot because she might cancel my credit cards and cut my savings if that happens which I can't live without buying my favorite brand clothes and accessories

Then my phone vibrate and I don't know if I should check it or not because it might be my mom again

Why do I feel uneasy right now?

Okay fine, I should check it because it's vibrating again and my hands are shaking. Oh my gosh, as if I'm in hell walking into a fire. I cover my eyes with my hand then try to sneak peek slowly and the message is from jamie which I'm thankful right now. I think she is already looking for me and can I just go back later because I'm still not in the mood to go to the class and I might just sleep

From: Jam (Foodie)

"Where are you? Don't tell me you're not going back to class? The professor is looking for you and let me guess you're not buying anything because you're not in the mood to do so and sitting just there while looking at the people who walk around on the mall"

Well, jamie really knows me well and she is the person I can rely on because she never complain even I'm such a moody person. While michelle is also scolding at me when I know she is right then alexis apologize immediately even I'm the one who's in fault but I have a pride and my ego is high but I know how to say sorry afterwards

Another message from jamie and can she do it later? If it's already time for the food party because I really need to relax and calm myself because I feel too much stress now

From: Jam (Foodie)

"You should be replying or else I will tell your mom about it, if you're going back here"

I think jamie is not the one who send this message and she is not a person who tells anything to my mom and this is michelle because this is how she sent a message a straightforward person

To: Jam (Foodie)

"I'll be back at 4:00pm in the school. I need to relax. Just tell the professor that I'm sick and I know it's you michelle"

I sent and then another message again which she didn't even get to read what I just sent right now. I checked it and it's from claude

Who is this guy? I don't remember that I met a guy with a name of claude

From: Claude

"Hey lovely, do you still remember me?"

Wait, is he the cousin of alexis? The twins who likes jamie and michelle. Wow, it's been a long time since the last time we talked and are they still studying with the same school which is called Dawn High Academia. Maybe I should reply to his message here in kakaotalk

To: Claude

"Hi claude, how are you and clyde? Yes of course, I still remember you and the cute twins who I always use to talk. Are you twins still studying in Dawn High Academia? Call me if you have time and I'll help you with jamie"

Well I did miss the twins, and I will never forget when the girls mistaken clyde as the boyfriend of alexis and I can't even imagine the reaction of those girls who's trying to talk a lot about alexis which almost want me to pull their hair

What did clyde said back then? "If you girls look for a handsome guy who will easily say yes to you then find a playboy than innocent guy. Because the only thing you girls do is to flirt when you want to without even knowing what they really feel. One more thing, yes you are pretty but it doesn't even fit in your attitude"

Clyde is really a straightforward person which he says what coming from his mind and never think twice wherein it's kind of offending to others but he apologized with advice. That is why I love his attitude because he never show is weak side instead being strong in front of everyone

My phone vibrate and maybe he already replied

To: Claude

"Not anymore, we just transfer to school and we just figure out you four girls transfer to another school which is called the Stanford High Academy and alexis told us. We're doing great and busy at school but we're almost on vacation now. Will you really help me with jamie? I will be glad with your help. About that, don't tell my cousin that I'll visit there very soon once we're done in school since we still have a month here in Dawn High Academia. I want to surprise my cousin and maybe will stay for 2 weeks with her. Please don't tell her okay lovely? Thank you and I love you my pretty angel"

He really loves saying a little nickname for me and I find it cute "My Pretty Angel".

Where should I go now? Maybe I'll go to the amusement park I think relax there at the same time have some fun to forget all the things that make me stress today because its ruining my day and especially my skin. One thing I need is beauty rest for a princess like me
