Chapter 1

This was my first time to enter the Clifford Frances High School. I used to be the top one at my old school. The school was wide and there I saw some students walking around. I fixed my uniform and sighed deeply, telling myself that this is my time to shine and win success.

I was looking at the list on the bulletin board when I noticed that they were laughing behind me. I just ignored them and let myself busy looking at my name and the number of my room. I turned around and I asked them, "What's wrong with you?" I walked at the aisle they had made in front of me. I was pissed when the students were laughing at me. I checked my uniform and I think that I wore the right uniform.

Someone patted my right shoulder and I was startled. I was about to face that person but he gave me a piece of paper wrote with a smiley, "I'm ugly. Kick me three times!" I know who did this. My eyes went small and I started to clenched my fists. I was about to thank the guy but he was gone at my sight. I ran at the rooftop tower and I saw the three boys laughing at a boy who was dancing like crazy.

"Hey!" I shouted at them. They turned off the music and their looks turned at me.

"What are you doing here?" he asked like he did nothing wrong about me at my first day of school. I walked near him and I spanked the piece of paper on his forehead. I smirked and I turned my back at them.

"Wait!", he called my attention. I looked back at him and frowned. "What's this?"

"I know that it was you." I walked downstairs and I sighed. Good thing that I did not hurt him at that moment. I rushed at my classroom and I saw the students were silently sitting at their seats. I sat at the back row near the window. The color of the sky made my mood changed into a new one. I smiled widely at the teacher standing in front but my smile disappeared when I saw the four guys entering the classroom.

The girls were giggling and staring at them.

"Good morning, Ma'am. Sorry, we're late," they said with a smiling face. I rolled my eyes at them and looked at the blackboard. I got pissed when he sat beside me. I frowned and bit my lower lip, holding my irritated self to burst."We'll have our groupings into five for your laboratory experiment," the teacher instructed and she added, "Your row will be your group members."

I sighed with disbelief. A group with these four guys? I looked at them and they were smiling at me. I know that they would just do me a favor to do the experiment alone."

"Tomorrow will be the start of your experiment. So, please have your copy of the activity and answer the following questions on it. That's all for today." The teacher smiled at us and went out of the classroom.

I was bored at the next subject that was why I almost sleep behind my book. I was startled when someone patted my shoulder that made me to stand up. My classmates were laughing around me and the four boys made a peace sign to me."

"Anything wrong?", our old teacher asked me.

"May I go out? I need to go to the bathroom, Sir." I smiled wryly and he nodded. I kicked softly their chairs that made them looked attentive to his discussions. They were really pissing me off. I should do something about it. What if I ignore them or have my revenge? What would it be? I was thinking about how my revenge would be successful when a guy bumped at me. I remembered him.

"I'm sorry.", he whispered and he turned his back at me. I followed him and patted his shoulder.

"Excuse me." He looked at me and I added, "Thank you."

My smile disappeared when I saw the four boys looking at us. I turned my smile to the guy in front of me and he was emotionless that made me to step back at him then, he walked away. I followed him by my sight until he was gone.I looked back at the four boys and I saw them making some fun at their leader. I returned to the classroom and I put out my home made lunch. 

"Wow! Amazing!" A girl smiled at me and she made me looked at her lunch too. "Did you cook it?"

"Yes." I nodded and we started eating our lunch. My smile disappeared when the four boys entered our room and I finished my food quickly. 

"What's wrong with them?" she asked curiously. The four boys went in front of us. She looked at them and her eyes went small, looking back at me."Nana," he called me a nickname that he should never mention. He looked like a kid when he was calling me that nickname. I was annoyed at their presence. Why would I be classmates with them? "Where's my lunch?" he asked me while he was smiling and the three boys were teasing him. I put out another lunch box and I gave it to him.

The girl in front of me was stunned with a questioning look. They were happily went to their chairs and ate their lunch. I sighed deeply and I smirked.

"Why on earth this could happen to you?" She was starting to freak out. I stopped her from saying anything. I covered her mouth and I smiled wryly at the four boys.She removed my hand and started to introduce herself."I'm Aya Megan Guttierez, nice to meet you." She smiled at me.

"I'm Haina Elayca Morales, nice to meet you too." I smiled back at her but before I got her hand, someone held mine."What is it?" I asked him. I squeezed his hand that made him hurt. He was waving his hand and the three boys behind him were secretly giggling at him. He went back to his seat and ate his food.

"Is he your boy-" I cut her words by my finger on her lips. I quickly removed my finger because I touched her saliva. I wiped my finger on my handkerchief and I was pissed with her playful smile."Let me talk to you later." I whispered and I added, "I'm scared if he will hear it." She nodded and I saw him looking at us. I stuck my tongue out and he winked.I was afraid if he would hear that he was my boyfriend. He would start to make me feel embarrassed again.

I looked at the cloudy sky and I think that it would rain later. I focused on the next class that was exciting, math. I took down my notes and when I looked at the boy sitting next to me, he was sleeping behind his book.

Time to revenge.

"What was it?" He was startled at my foot that kicked him softly."What's your problem? You're drooling," our teacher said with a small laugh and we laughed at him too. "Okay, that's enough. Let's move to the next topic."

He sat and looked at me. He pointed his two fingers at his eye level and pointed at me."Get ready." I felt goose bumps on my neck when he whispered and looked at me with evil eyes.I was scared of what he could do later. He would do something evil behind my back again. May be, I should go home without leaving any trace.I sighed deeply and focused on the discussion. I should not let him do whatever he wanted.

The class was over and I went to my bike to go home. The rain was about to drop when a guy behind me blocked my way. The heavy rain dropped and I was soaked.

"Why is it now?" He opened his umbrella and he smiled at me genuinely. I looked clearly at his face and I found that it was him.

"What are you doing?" I asked him."Giving you my umbrella." I refused the offer and I started to ride my bike.

"You'll get cold if you are soaked with rain." He rode at my back and I started to peddle the bike. He was too heavy that made us fell to the ground.

"Let me drive for you." He smiled widely and sat on the seat. "Put your hands on my shoulders." My hands were trembling softly as I put my hands on him. I flinched when he started to peddle the bike. He looked different that made me think what he was thinking when we stopped at a coffee shop to buy two cups of coffee.

"Here. Take this." He was smiling at me while I bit my lower lip. He made me hold the cup of coffee and I frowned.Why does he looks like a gentleman now? It was already six years since he was making fun of me but now, why did not I realize that there was good in him?He patted my head once and faced me with a grin.

"What's with that grin?" I smirked.

"Nothing," he answered. He went to ride the bike and asked me to come near him. "Let's go to your home."

Yes, he drove me at my small apartment and we were soaked with the rain.
