Chapter 4

"Ashton?!" I screamed.

It's Ashton, My cousin. But my aunt died 3 years ago. That's why he's alone now. I didn't know that he's now in the Philippines. He's a year older than me. But he went to school late that's why we're in the same grade.

We're in the same school when we were in Canada.

"It's been a while" He smiled.

"Yea-" I didn't continue what I'm about to say because there are many girls at the door of our classroom.

Ashton pointed at them. "I don't know why do those girls follow me." He said.

As soon as I looked at them, I heard them talking about me.

"What is his connection with Reign?"

"I don't know. I shouldn't be her boyfriend! She doesn't deserve him."

Just to clarify girls, he's my cousin. Duh.

"Just don't mind them." He said and smiled.

I smirked. I pulled Ashton and hugged him to provoke those girls.

When I hugged Ashton, I looked at them. They were so pissed. HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH.

"Stop it, Reign" He chuckled.

After I looked around our classroom, I saw Axiel and Axial looking at us.

Oh my God! I removed my hug from Ashton.

Axial ran to me and hugged me. Gosh, she's so pretty.

"Hi! I'm Axial Reando, Axiel's sister! But" She smiled brightly. She's clingy.

I smiled too. "Reign Leima," I said.

"Can I sit next to you?" She asked with her puppy eyes.

"S-Sure" I smiled. She sat next to me.

Axiel's seat is next to my seat.

Axial is the total opposite of her brother.

Few minutes passed, more and more of our classmates and our professor came.

We started our exam.

While answering, I saw Ashton confused.

I cramped a small piece of paper and throw it at him.

"What?" He whispered.

"I'll write the answers on a paper. It seems like you're not ready on this test." I said. It's just the first semester that's why they still accepted students.

I gave it to him since his seat is just at the front of my seat.

He whispered thanks to me.

But when I looked at Axy, she's answering the paper as if she was ready. This school year is the last year of our junior high.

I just continued answering my paper.

After 4 hours, we finished our test for the day.

Axy called me and Ashton.

"Hey, let's eat in a restaurant! My treat." She smiled again.

While in the restaurant, we ordered the foods that we want to eat.

After the waiter got our order, Axy asked us something.

"So guys, next year, what strand are you gonna take?" She asked.

"I'll take Accounting and Business Management," Axiel answered right away.

" I'll take STEM," Ashton said. STEM Stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math.

"What about you, Reignnn?" Axy asked me.

"I'll take HUMSS," I answered and smiled.

"OMG? Really? Same!" She shouted in excitement.

If some of you don't know what HUMSS means, it's Humanities and Social Sciences.

" I want to be a lawyer e. That's why I'll take HUMSS." I said.

"Yeah. Same but I want to be a Corporate Lawyer. What about you?" She asked.

"Criminal Lawyer." I answered.

"That's great too!" She smiled again.

I'm still a little shy to Axy and awkward to Axiel.

After we chatted a bit, the food that we ordered came.

We started to eat.
