Ai had woke up late this morning, the fact that she and her parents returned back home around 9pm the previous day made her went to bed late.
Ai had the habit of going to bed early and waking up late, she would go to bed around 8pm in the evening and would want to wake up around 9am the following morning.
If not for her mother's harsh words and the alarm clock, Ai would love not to go to school.
She woke up this morning stretching on her bed, slowly boothing as though as she was an old computer, she arranged her disheveled hair and settled to sleep more.
"Isla!" She heard an angry voice calling her.
Oh no!
It's mother.
Ai quickly jumped out of bed, she was trying to pull off her trousers when her door opened.
Sylvia was already dressed in her suit skirt, she already even held her bag and was ready to go, she just decided to check on her daughter.
And to her astonishment, Ai was just getting up when Fay was already seated in the car.
"M.. mother, g..g..good morning" Ai stammered after searching for the words to say to her quite livid mother.
"Don't tell me you're just waking up Ai. Don't you know you have to get ready for school?" Sylvia chastised her.
"I'm..I...m so sorry mum, I never knew when my alarm clock rang"
Ai dashed into the bathroom, she quickly turned on the water heater and got ready to bathe.
'What was I thinking when I ignored the alarm clock?' Ai wondered.
The truth was that she clearly heard the alarm clock rang, she had just pressed the snooze button and continued sleeping.
Sometimes, she always wonder why her mother had kept the alarm clock in her room, she knew that she was a person who enjoyed staying long in bed, but at least her mum should stop bothering her about waking up early to prepare for school, it was her school and no one could order her out even if she decides to go to school by 12pm.
She hurriedly wore her uniform, Ai would have sent for stylist Nana, but she was too late. It was almost 8'oclock and stylist Nana would use an hour in dressing her up.
Ai grabbed her school bag and went out of the house.
She could see the plate of omelette her mother had kept for her on the dinning table.
Ai quickly wore her shoes and went out of the house.
Fay was already seating in the car, she seems to be typing something on her phone.
Ai sat in the car with her.
"Please let's go Mr Jason, we can't afford to waste another minute here" Ai announced her entry.
Fay rolled her eyes at her.
Of course she had seen the new photos going viral online.
Fay nearly smashed her phone when she saw them. They were millions of questions in her mind.
'Why would Ai and celestial Jie stand beside each other?'
'I never knew celestial Jie does smile this way'
'I never knew that Isla could be so wayward'
'So celestial Jie is this soft with kids?'
'Isn't Ai just trying to please him?'
"I went to bed very late yesterday, so I woke up late today" Ai crooned, she had been looking for a way to start a conversation with Fay.
"I see" Fay dismissed Ai's words with a shrug.
Fay also couldn't understand why she was hating her beloved cousin sister all because of the idol who never gave a damn about her.
But the truth was that she liked Jie Li so much that she could do anything to get him.
But he doesn't like her, he even called her ugly.
He ignored her at the orphanage yesterday.
Oh celestial Jie, she is a blonde for God's sake.
He even took a photo with Ai and that was what she hated most, even if celestial Jie Li wouldn't take a photo with her, why must it be Ai?
Weren't they any other girls present at the orphanage yesterday?
As Ai climbed down the car, her minions ran towards her, they've also seen the photos and they told her how lucky she was.
"Miss Ai, you're even more lucky than that blonde newbie cousin of yours" the first girl began
"The photo is circulating the internet" another added
"God, miss Ai look so crazy beautiful with him"
Even the students who weren't her minions already surrounded her, Ai felt like a queen.
She looked pleased with herself, the students were already taking photos of her and she was smiling and posing.
Due to that cool celebrity treatment she received that morning, Ai had even forgotten the fact that she never ate breakfast before leaving home.
Ai was walking towards her classroom, when she saw Jie Li standing at the football field.
Damn!
He looked more killing handsome in his black jacket, his platinum hair also blew with the wind, he was smiling faintly as he watched the junior students playing football.
The junior students tried to play more harder.
This idol whose footsteps could shake the entire school and city was here watching them as they played.
Jie Li noticed that most of the students were looking at him and whispering among themselves.
He only heard a word from two junior girls.
"He took a photo with young miss Ai"
Oh!
Jie Li had also gotten bunch of new followers on Instagram, was it because of that photo?
BOB had also showed him how his fans were going crazy, they shared the photo on different online platforms.
Jie Li became a hot topic that sunday, the word 'Celestial Jie and Ai' were on search engines of people's phones.
Just a post about him would have up to thousands of retweet on Twitter.
And some Johnny-come-lately internet users who knew nothing about Ai were already posting.
'Who is Ai?'
'I've never heard of that name before?'
'Damn, the girl is so pretty'
They were also comments like
'Are you just waking up from a sleep ever since you were born?'
'Only the cavemen don't know Ai'
Ai was liking this popularity of hers, but they was a news she heard that morning that made her froze.
She overheard a girl in her class saying that celestial Jie was seen at the principal's office, asking him if the school will accept new students since they've not covered up 5 weeks of the semester.
"I went to my dad to get my glasses, so he was there" the girl stated.
"Wait a sec, why was celestial Jie asking?" The second girl quizzed.
"Seriously, he sounded so serious, my dad told him that a new student is accepted anytime"
Ai sat uncomfortably in her chair, who was the person?
Who knows if he wants to enroll a student there? Worst of all, is the person a girl or a boy?
The news soon went viral in the school forum, photos of Jie Li at the principal office were also included.
That news was just like a teaser to the students.
He was surely going to enroll a new student, otherwise he wouldn't have asked right?
But who?
