?Anel’s POV?
It’s lunch break..
I entered the cafeteria and the noise died down,they all glanced in my direction murmuring as i made my way to the counter.
The cafeteria is a very wide one,it’s sparkling neat and beautiful, the meals also look good.
“Pie and drink” I said to the waitress who smiled and nodded.
Some students who were also at the counter didn’t take their eyes off me even when i took my order and turned, searching for an empty table.
I found one and quickly hurried towards it ignoring the glares and glances i was getting.
I sat down and faced my pie and drink knowing if i look up,I’m gonna find dozens of eyes on me.
“Hi” A guy voice said and i felt infuriated immediately.
I glanced up and shot him a deadly glare.
He’s cute but not handsome,brown spiky hair, common blue eyes,pointed nose and pink lips .
My stomach rumbled when he smiled romantically..i held the urge to smash the pie on his face.
I inwardly read the badge on his school shirt.
‘Travis Cune,grade 8,school prefect’
“Can i sit?” He asked and just like i normally do..i ignored him.
“Hey what’s your name? Can i sit?” He grinned.
He annoys me more when he utter words.
“Leave!” I said slowly.
“Like seriously? I should leave?” He asked.
“Leave” I said through gritted teeth.
“I’m Travis Cune,the school prefect..my father is the billionaire who owns the largest companies in Paris and other cities ” He said and dropped his tray of meal on the table,about to sit.
“I said leave!” I yelled standing up in the process, everyone present in the cafeteria looked at us wondering what was going on.
He stared at me in surprise, picked his freaking tray and walked away in embarrassment.
I breathed in…i think the whole students are present here, I should give them all a clear warning now.
“Everyone please note this warning I’m about to give,no one should freaking come close to me or dare talk to me..I’m not in for friendship or whatever,i don’t want to mingle with anyone so please no one should also try to mingle with me” I shouted loudly and then sat down, about to continue my meal when my gaze met with the handsome maniac sitting with two girls.
I recognized one of them being among the girls who glared at me earlier.
A lot girls glared at me but i recognized her because of her pink hair.
She was backing me, saying something to the guy.
She turned and my gaze locked with hers,we glared at each other for a while before i turned back to my pie.
Yeah…that’s what i want.
Everyone should hate me just like i hate them.
?Daniel’s POV?
“That girl is damn mean” Karissa said to me.
I nodded.
Everyone was still obviously surprised at what she just did,i initially thought she only hated our class,i didn’t know it’s gonna concern everyone.
Does that mean she’s a loner?
She’s truly mean but i loved the way she put Travis in his place..
Travis is the son of a billionaire who thinks money is everything.
He thinks every girl will become his once he boasts about his father’s wealth.
Karissa once fell victim,he ended up breaking her heart and now she’s aiming for me.
He already dated almost all the pretty girls in school and ended up discarding them like thrash and i know his next target is beautiful psycho..haha,he’s in for it this time.
This girl doesn’t look like someone who’ll give in easily,she looks strong hearted,she was even bold enough to tell the whole Cafeteria not to dare mingle with her.
“She might have a reason for behaving this way” Jacqueline said.
She is a not too close friend of mine,i like her. She’s subdued and nice.
“What reason might she have? She just chose to be mean” Karissa said tucking her pink hair behind her ears.
Jacq smiled and continued eating.
“She might not have any reason,i think she’s proud because she’s beautiful” I said and twisted the cap of my bottled water before gulping it down my throat.
“So you think she’s beautiful?” Karissa asked.
“Are you blind? Didn’t you see how beautiful that girl is..to be sincere, right now that girl is the most beautiful girl in this school and also the most beautiful teen I’ve ever seen” Jacq said.
“Whatever!” Karissa half yelled bringing out her little mirror from her pocket.
She checked her reflection, smirked and brought out a lip gloss,she quickly applied it and threw it back in her pocket.
I sighed..what a friend I’ve got!
I stole glances at the new girl till she got up after finishing her pie and drink,then started walking out of the cafeteria.
If only she’s not this mean,she would be so loved by a lot of people and will have dozen of friends in a minute but she already created a bad name for herself.
I laughed out loud when i saw how red Travis eyes has become.
Students mocked him and he’s looking so embarrassed.
Travis is older than me with a year and a class,but of course I’m older than him in looks,I’m more handsome and i don’t have to sweet-talk girls before they come to me,girls rush to me like bees and i think that made him hate me and always find every opportunity to put me in detention.
Dad already warned me not to break any girl’s heart not to talk of making them cry,i promise him not to and I’m keeping firmly to my promise.
“Hi Daniel” A group of girls chorused with smiles as they walked past my table.
“Hello beauties” I smiled.
“Awwn” They blushed,held their cheeks before walking away.
Two fat girls also walked past my table and said hi to me.
“Hello beauties” I smiled.
Karissa laughed..”Hey,two pigs come back here”
I shook my head knowing what she was about to do,this isn’t the first time Karissa mocks and bully girls who are below her so called standard.
“I can’t believe you both had the gut to say hi to Daniel, beautiful people say hi to Daniel not fat and ugly ducklings” She said.
“We’re sorry” The girls said closed to tears.
Karissa is like the queen of Makers high school,she has everyone under her finger except the seniors,jacq and i.
“Now you both should kneel here for five minutes before going to eat” She said.
They were about kneeling when i stopped them.
“You both should leave” I said.
They nodded and scurried away.
“Fat pigs” Karissa shouted after them and the whole Cafeteria bursted into laughter.
“Karissa that was unfair!” Jacq said.
“Yeah,that was totally unfair! You don’t mock or bully people because of the way they are” I said.
“Whatever! Aren’t they fat” She said.
“They are but you don’t have to mock them cause they aren’t the ones who made themself that way” Jacq said.
“I was only describing them and not mocking them okay” Karissa said.
“Oh..you are describing them by calling them pigs,do they look like pigs to you? Why are you this cruel” Jacq said with a frown.
“Don’t reprimand me okay?” Karissa half yelled.
“I’m sick and tired of your bad attitude,Dan when will you stop being friends with her” Jacq fumed.
“You are the one he’s gonna stop being friends with not me!” Karissa said.
Jacq picked her tray of lunch and left for another table.
I sighed and gulped the remaining of my bottle water,stood up and started walking out of the cafeteria.
“Daniel” Karissa called after me.
“I’ll be in the class” I said.
?Anel’s POV?
School’s over for the day.
I enjoyed the teachings,it was great,the teachers are so sound.
I stood up with my backpack in my hand, unzipped it and brought out my phone.
I need to call mum not to bother picking me up,I’m going to Dad’s place.
I hung my backpack over my shoulders and started walking out of the classroom, dialing mum’s number in the process.
She picked up almost immediately.
?Hi mum..
?Anel how’re you ?” I managed to pick what she asked amidst the noise.
?I’m fine Mum” I said and opened the class door,then stepped out.
?Do you like the school?
? Kinda. Mum, don’t bother picking me up.
? You’re going to your dad’s place?
?Yes Mum.
? Alright dear.
?Bye Mum”
I disconnected the call and cornered the first hallway, knowing there’s still a second one for me to corner,i walked faster.
Heads turned as i walked past them.
I was about cornering the last hallway when the guy i yelled at in the cafeteria appeared in front of me.
He brought out four bundles of dollars and flaunted it by spreading it all over the floor,close to my feet.
I smashed it with my feet,took some and tore it into pieces..
The students around gasp including him who couldn’t close his mouth.
I stepped on on the remaining dollars on the floor and walked away..
***
I alighted from the cab in front of dad’s house,i already paid him before hopping in.
I walked to the gate and knocked twice.
The gate keeper unbolted it and i stepped in heading straight to Dad’s door.
I twisted the knob and the door gave way,i smiled and closed the door behind me.
I walked into the living room and stopped for a while when i perceived a sweet aroma followed by some sounds coming from the kitchen.
Mhmm… Dad rarely cook,and even if he do, the aroma is not always as sweet as this.
I rushed to the kitchen.
“Da..” I was saying but stopped when i saw a young lady, wearing an apron and hair net.
She was backing me but turned when she heard my voice, i noted how pretty she is.
She has an oval face with a dark green eyes,small nose and small lips,her blonde hair made her green eyes obvious.
She smiled “Hi, you’re Asanel right?”
I ignored her and walked away from the kitchen.
I dropped my backpack in the living room and climbed the stairs to Dad’s room.
I opened the door and walked in but didn’t find him there,i heard the shower running and i walked closer to the bathroom door.
“Hi Dad” I said loudly through the door.
“Asanel” He called cheerfully and i smiled.
“Dad how’re you?” I asked.
“I’m fine” He said.
“Are you still gonna take long there?” I asked.
“Yes princess,i just got in” He said.
“Okay Dad…I’m off to my room” I said.
*
I jumped on the soft bed immediately i entered my room.
I grinned and breathed in the fresh scent of the room.
Two things i love about this room is the bed and fresh scent.
I need to get up and shower,if not I’m just gonna doze off…
I stood up from the bed and walked to the wardrobe.
I pulled it open and stared at the few clothes there.
I’m not fully based here,i even take some of the clothes dad get for me to the house.
I hummed as i selected a pair of black jeans and white tank top with a new set of undies.
I dropped it on the bed and started pulling off my school wears..I picked my towel and wrapped it round my body.
I folded my school wears neatly and grabbed a paper bag from the shelf.
I placed the school wears in it before walking to the bathroom.
*
*
I dried my body while walking out of the bathroom.
I frowned when i saw the lady sitting on the bed smiling at me.
I ignored her and picked my wears then walked back to the bathroom.
I placed the towel on the rail and started dressing up.
Dad should have told her i don’t talk to strangers..I don’t know who she is, even if i knew her..it will be so difficult to say anything.
I’ve gotten so used to not speaking to people,i love it that way.
*
I finished dressing up and walked back to my room.
She’s gone!
I repacked my hair and then picked the paper bag containing my school wears,i selected a pair of pink slippers from the shoe rack,i slipped my feet into it and walked out of the room.
I walked straight to Dad’s room but noticed he isn’t in.
He might be in the living room.
I quickly descended the stairs, I’ve missed him.
I got to the living room in two minutes but didn’t find him there also.
I sighed and dropped the paper bag on the couch beside my backpack.
I turned and saw him emerging from the kitchen with a cupcake in hand.
“Daddy” I screamed happily and rushed to hug him.
He dropped his cupcake and carried me up high for two seconds and quickly dropped me complaining how his hands hurt.
I laughed..
“You’ve added so much weight” He pecked my cheeks.
I giggled and hit his chest playfully.
“Remember I’ve not forgiven you completely” I said faking a frown .
“Anel,I’m sorry” He said.
“Just joking” I pinched his nose and ran to the living room.
He ran after me and we both sat on the couch and faced each other.
“Dad,did you know i already started Makers high school today?” I asked.
“Yes i know,i was about asking you that,so did you love my school?” He grinned and i smirked.
“Kinda,it’s beautiful and the teachers are sound.. that’s all” I said and collected the cupcake he was stretching to me.
I took a bite and it tasted nice.
“I hope you’re aware that if you go against the school rules, you’ll be strictly punished” He said.
“Yeah, I’ll be careful not to go against the rules” I said.
“And please don’t beat up anyone or break their heads okay?” .
I nodded but stopped halfway..”I will do that if they get close to me,but I’m sure they won’t..I’ve given them a clear warning”
“Com’on Anel when will you stop this?” He asked worriedly.
“Dad I’m not stopping it…i need more cupcake” I said.
“Just try to associate with everyone and you’ll find it real fun” He said.
“No Dad,i don’t wanna mingle with anyone” I said.
“Mara always wanna be friends with everyone,she plays and laughs with everyone.. people loved her so much” Dad said sadly.
“And that was the reason she died early” I said.
“What do you mean?” Dad asked.
“If only she had been on her own without any friend, without any damn person who pushed her into that grievous act which made me motherless” I sniffed and dad pulled me into his arms.
Even as mean as i am,I’m so emotional..i break down easily.
“Friends are betrayals and I’m not gonna have any till i die” I said starting to cry.
“It’s okay Anel” he patted my back.
He cleaned my tears my tears and started tickling me.
I laughed and begged him to stop, hitting his chest and dragging his hair.
He finally stopped and my laughter died down slowly.
“Dad you nearly killed me” I giggled.
“Sorry princess,i had to make sure you’re happy again” He said.
“I’m hungry,order pizza” I said.
“There’s homemade meal, haven’t you met Claire?” He asked.
“Ohh…the lady i saw in the kitchen earlier,is she your cook?” I asked.
“No she’s not” He said.
“Your girlfriend?” I asked and he nodded slowly.
“Good thing you finally got a girlfriend after all this years… Lucky her” I said.
“Thanks,so would you like to say hi to her?” Dad asked.
“Dad! You know i won’t and i can’t…” I said.
“But she’s my girlfriend,she’s no stranger” Dad said.
“Of course i know but I’m not saying hi to anyone” I said.
“Com’on Anel,she just told me she said hi to you but you ignored her” He said.
“Ohh..she told you that? Did she also told you she came to my room? ” I asked.
“No,but you have to say hi to her,she’s sad,she thinks you don’t approve of her..she didn’t know that’s your lifestyle” He said.
“Okay.. I’ll just make things clear to her then” I said and stood up.
Dad followed me as i walked to the kitchen.
I got there and met Claire resting on the counter,she looked worried but smiled on seeing me.
“Hi Asanel”
“Well..I’m sorry but dad should have told you that i don’t speak to people outside my family circle,i approve of your relationship with dad..I’ve always wanted him to get someone and I’m glad he did,a beautiful one at that..” I said and she smiled wider but i didn’t return the smile.
Why should i?
“So, please deal with me not speaking to you,i might start talking to you if you get married to my dad but for now I’m sorry” I said and walked to the freezer.
I opened it and brought out a bottle of water with a glass cup.
I walked back to the living room and placed the water on the table,i picked the remote control and turned on the TV,it came on and i started watching Opera.
I poured some water into the glass cup and gulped half of it.
I checked the wall clock..
“Dad I’ll be leaving soon” I said loudly.
“Won’t you eat anything? He asked.
“You didn’t offer me anything” I said.
“I’m sorry, come over to the dining.. Claire just finished preparing lunch” He said.
I sighed and stood up…
???
“What about the things you bought for me?” I asked Dad after i finished eating lunch.
“Come with me” He winked and i grinned.
We both climbed the stairs to his room.
We got in and he opened the wardrobe.
I sat on his bed and played with the bedside lamp.
“Ta da” Dad said and i turned to see a beautiful sapphire gown with a silver handbag and silver shoes.
I screamed in joy and ran into his arms making him drop all the things he held.
That personal gown has been my dream, i saw it online and told Dad i wanna wear it for my birthday,i didn’t know he’s gonna get it for me,with beautiful handbag and shoes.
I’m just so happy right now.
“Thanks so much Dad,I love you” I pecked his cheeks and hugged him tighter.
“You like it?” He asked.
“I love it” I smiled and picked the gown…it’s more beautiful in reality,then the shoes and handbag…OMG.
“It’s remaining one thing” He said and opened his shelf bringing out two boxes of chocolate.
“I love you Dad” i screamed and took the boxes from him.
I’m addicted to chocolate,i don’t think i can survive a day without eating chocolate.
I opened the boxes and unwrapped two chocolates,i threw it in my mouth and chewed happily.
Dad gave me a funny look and i laughed and threw one chocolate at him.
He caught it, unwrapped it and chewed it.
“I’m not the only chocolate addict” I teased.
“I’m a chocolate lover not an addict like you” Dad said.
“That’s the only thing I’m gonna admit,so how was Venice?” I asked.
“Venice was great,i didn’t wanna leave.. everything is so beautiful. I plan on relocating there soon” He said and i frowned.
“Just joking” He laughed.
“Will you take me there during my holiday?” I asked.
“That will still be a longgg way but i will” He said.
“Promise”
“I promise” He said and held his chest before bowing.
I laughed and started packing the gown,shoes and bag.
***
“Bye Asanel” Claire said.
I nodded and walked out of the house with my two boxes of chocolate and the paper bag containing my school wears.
I stood beside dad’s car waiting for him to come out.
*
*
“Dad won’t you come in ?” I asked after he dropped me in front of the house.
“No Anel,I’ll come in some other time” He waved.
“I’ll give you a call” I waved back.
“Bye princess”
“Bye prince” I said and we both laughed before he drove off.
I stood there thinking of how to carry all this things in.
The gate opened and Ana jumped out.
I quickly hid my chocolates.
“Mum told me to come help you with you the loads you brought and don’t bother hiding that chocolate,i already saw it” She grinned with a wave of hand.
“Aaaargh” I sighed, knowing I’ll have to share this chocolate with this girl.
??JUST FOR LOVE ??

? Dan’s POV?
“It should go this way” Dad corrected me, holding the paintbrush.
We’re in the studio room sketching and painting after we had our lunch.
I love drawing and painting just like Dad,he’s a famous artist and always have loads of contract, mostly from dignitaries.
I never reveal my dad’s personality to anyone,i don’t see the reason i should.
“Now we’re done with the painting” He said and gently dropped it, leaving it to dry.
“Beautiful” I smiled.
“It still need some adjustment” He said examining the painting.
“What adjustment?” I asked.
“The sides need to be more bold” He said.
“Really?” I said and studied the painting but i still found it perfect.
Well…dad knows best.
He picked it again and started the adjustment.
I watched on and on as he did that…till he was finally done with it.
“Wow!” I exclaimed.
“I’m now satisfied” Dad smiled.
“I didn’t notice the sides weren’t bold earlier but right now,i saw the reason you said it needed adjustment..it’s more beautiful now” I said.
“After painting,you gotta study it well and make sure you adjust the sides that needs to be adjust,that will make your painting more bold and beautiful” He said.
I nodded…”it takes a lot to be a genius”
“Of course but determination is the key” he said.
“I wish I’m perfect and grown like you” I said and he laughed.
“You wanna escape the lessons and all and don’t wish to be like me but wish to better than me” He said.
“Okay Dad” i said.
“Now let’s move to the sketching” he said and dropped the painting aside.
“When sketching,you need full concentration” Dad said, and started sketching perfectly on his sketchbook.
I admire dad a lot cause it seems he’s perfect in everything.
No doubt that i inherited my looks from him.
Dad is striking handsome and one would barely believe he has two sons.
My step brother Michael and i.
I know he’s gonna rush here soon,he’s the most troublesome in the house.
My biological Mum is married with two kids,i go to her place once or twice in a week.
I’ve gotten used to dad and my step mum, most of the time,dad is the one who normally forces me to visit Mum…i love Mum too but I’ve gotten fond of the people i see every day.
I don’t know but anytime i look at dad,there’s this look of sadness deep in his eyes..
I’ve caught him crying secretly several times,i tried asking him but he won’t respond.
I’m so worried and bent on knowing what normally makes him sad.
Apart from that,dad has been a great person to everyone.
“Dad,how about we use another color of paint for the second drawing” I said
“Okay,what color should we use?” He asked.
“You know a minister handed the contract to you so the colour we should use must be classic” I said.
“Yeah that’s the problem,we have a lot of classic colours here,which one should we use?” He asked.
“Dad you know the best color to use” I said.
He smiled…”Of course i do but I’m gonna use the one you’ll choose” He said.
“What if i don’t choose the one that matches with the one you have in mind,it might ruin what you planned” I said.
“No, I’ll always bring everything to perfection,no matter how worse it is” Dad said with a little pride in his voice.
I chuckled…”Now you’re boasting”
We both laughed.
“But dad,do you know I’m sometimes afraid to tell people that my father is the famous “Artist Bryan” ” I said.
“Really? Why?” Dad asked.
“Cause I’m gonna have a get a lot of attention at school, most people are definitely gonna force me to disclose our residence,the press might hear of it and start coming in troops and i know how much you love and cherish your privacy” I said.
“Yeah i do but that doesn’t stop you from telling few of your close friends” He said and picked selected a piece of willow charcoal,then smoothened his sketchbook and continued sketching.
I always love to watch him sketch,he sketches perfectly.
“I don’t have close friends, except from Jacq but we haven’t become so close” I said.
“Jacq?” He asked.
“Yeah… Jacqueline, didn’t i told you about her?” I asked.
“No you didn’t” he said.
“Ouch…I’m sorry” I said.
Dad is the only one i confide in,i normally tell him everything going on in my life.
“Dad,can you believe a psycho student was admitted into Makers high school today” I frowned remembering her face.
I adjusted my sketch pad and sighed.
Why’s she so beautiful.
“Really?” Dad laughed.
“Yes Dad,she told everyone not to talk to her or come close to her” I said irritatedly.
“Wow,does she have a reason for that?” Dad asked.
“How would i know? But i think she’s proud because of her beauty” I said and tore off the rubbish i sketched.
I sketch well also, but just thinking of that psycho made me give in to mistake so i have to tear off the entire sheet.
“Everyone has a reason for everything,you shouldn’t blame her yet” Dad said.
I smirked and was about sketching another thing when dad stopped me.
“Enough of sketching cups, spoons and gardens i want you to sketch someone” He said.
I laughed..”Someone? Who should i sketch?” I I laughed..”Someone? Who should i sketch?” I asked.
“Just imagine it and bring it to life on your sketching pad then you’ll draw it out and paint it” Dad said.
“And you think I’ll get that?” I asked.
“Of course,it’s time you practice all you’ve been watching me do” he said and i nodded determinedly.
I’m gonna make sure dad sees how much I’ve learnt from him.
He passed me another grade of paper with another piece of wallow charcoal.
“Now try it” He said and i smiled.
I took it … but who do i sketch.
A face filled my vision.
Beautiful psycho!
I hissed and try to think of Jacq but her face wasn’t fully in my vision, psycho kept pushing away jacq’s face.
“What’s the matter?” Dad asked.
“I’m having a problem with coming up with someone’s face” I said.
“That shouldn’t be a problem,just think of someone,your mum, Michael, Laura,i or Jacq” Dad said.
“I’m trying to do that but one face keeps blocking my vision” I said.
“Then sketch out the face,” Dad said.
“No I’ll not” I said.
“Why?” Dad asked.
“It’s the psycho’s face” I said reluctantly and rolled my eyes when dad blushed.
“Then sketch it” Dad said.
“I’ll not” I said.
“You have to sketch the face that’s filling your vision,it’s just like seeing the person right in front of you.. it’ll make the sketching easier and close to perfect” Dad said.
I shook my head.
“It doesn’t matter who you sketch,it’s just a practice” Dad said.
I started sketching.
**
“Wow,is this the image of the girl?” Dad asked when i finished sketching psycho.
I’m also proud of myself..the sketching came out neat and nice,even if it can’t be compared to Dad’s.
“Yes Dad,this is her image” I smiled.
Why the hell am i smiling!
“She’s such a beauty” Dad said and winked at me.
“What’s with the wink?” I asked.
“Never mind” He smiled.
“Now,time for drawing and painting” Dad said.
I sighed as i kept admiring the sketch but im also feeling furious cause i don’t know if it’s the image or the main person I’m admiring.
Both way…I don’t care.
It’s just practice.
*
*
“I’m finally done” i said with a smile before showing my drawing to dad.
“Wow,the image finally came to life.. this is beautiful,I’m proud of you son” Dad said and i grinned.
“You mean it’s perfect?” I asked.
“No it’s not,you can do better but this is impressive for a start,it shows you’ve been paying keen interest to everything I’ve been doing” Dad smiled.
“Thanks dad,so this is my first drawing of a person and it came out well but I’m not so happy” I said.
“Why?” Dad asked.
I breathed in “Because the first person i sketched is the person i dislike”
“It doesn’t matter…” Dad said.
“It does,to me. If i had sketched Mum, step mum or you..it would have been the best memory but it’s okay” I smiled.
“The drawing is so nice,it could have been better if you can give it to her” Dad said.
“Never!” I said and dad laughed.
“It was just a tease” He said.
“Boom!” We heard and the studio door opened.
Michael raced in, knocking over two glasses of paint in the process.
I quickly picked it up before it spilled.
Dad sent him a stern look and he recoiled.
“I’m sorry” He pouted.
Dad ignored him and continued sketching.
I dragged his ears and he shouted in pain.
“What if you had spilled the paints huh” I said and made sure it took a while before i released his ears.
“You are wicked” He cried and started walking out.
He turned back…”Mum said you should come help me with my assignment”
“Can’t you do it yourself?” I asked.
Michael is very brilliant and he doesn’t always require help with his assignment except drawing..he’s very terrible at that.
“It’s drawing and I’ve tried doing it myself but i didn’t get it and I’ve tore half of my drawing book” He said and i laughed.
“Will you help me or not?” He asked rubbing his ears.
“I will not” I joked.
“Then don’t also ask me for anything and I’m not gonna forgive you if Mrs Morgan spank me tomorrow” He said.
“I think you need more of Mrs Morgan’s spanking so I’m not gonna do it for you” I said.
“Please” He pleaded and bursted into another round of tears.
I laughed at how funny his mouth looked at the moment.
“Let’s go, I’m gonna help you” I said.
He cleaned his tears and started walking towards the door.
“Won’t you say thanks” I walked after him.
“Do you wanna have the ‘thanks’ for dinner” He smirked before walking out of the studio room.
I shook my head.
“Dad I’ll be right back” I said.
“Okay Dan” He said.
???
“Mum i want more!” Michael said.
We were all at the dining having our supper.
“Darling,give him more” Dad said to Mum.
“Sweetheart, that’s the third plate he just finished” Mum said.
“Just give him this last one” Dad said.
“I know you’ll put a stop to food once you get big and round like a balloon” Mum said and i chuckled.
She dished out more for Mike who started eating grinning at everyone.
“Laura,I’ll be traveling to India by next week” Dad said to Mum.
“Really?” Mum asked.
“Yeah,for some business contract and we’re going together” Dad said.
“Okay” Mum smiled.
“So you both are gonna leave me with this strong headed boy” i said and they laughed while Mike glared.
“Just deal with him, I’ll help you buy a lot of things, and you’re gonna love them..you know India gat a lot of stuff ” Mum said.
I smiled… she’s not my biological mother but treats me even better than my mum do.
“Okay,your bribe is accepted” I said and she laughed.
I saw Mike scooping the last spoon of omelette rice in his mouth.
“You must not ask for another plate” I said.
“Yes i won’t but I’ll take from yours instead” He grinned and i hit my spoon on his head.
He bursted into tears….

I wiped my hand with the dishcloth after washing the dishes.
I walked out of the kitchen and headed to the living room to say ‘goodnight’
“Good night Mum,Dad” I said to Mum and dad who were watching a movie.
“Goodnight Dan,sweet dreams”
I climbed the stairs to my room,i passed Mike’s room and heard him snoring.
Haa…that’s the result of a lot of food and play.
I opened the door to my room and got in.
I slipped out my feet from the footwear,walked to the wardrobe and started getting ready for my night bath.
???
I yawned as i walked out of the bathroom in my Pajamas feeling refreshed.
I walked straight to bed and sat on it.
I set up my alarm for ‘6:30am’ and switched off the light, switched on my bedside lamp and slipped under the duvet and that was the end of my night.
?NEXT MORNING?
“Griiiiiiin” The sound of my alarm woke me up.
Damn! I shouldn’t have set it up in the first place.
I opened my eyes and frown,the sound was disturbing my ears.
I didn’t remember setting it that loud.
I picked it up while still laying on the bed and dismissed it.
I sighed sleepily and thought of having another round of quick sleep but i dare not.
I sat up and rubbed my face with my palms.
I placed my feet on the floor and was about standing up when i heard my phone buzz.
That’s a notification..
I shifted my pillow aside and picked my phone.
I unlocked it and clicked on the message showing above the screen.
? Good morning,how was your night?
?Karissa?
I dropped my phone back on the and stood up and walked to the wardrobe,i pulled it open and brought out my school wears, underwear,body spray…” I placed it all on the bed and walked into the bathroom.
I brushed my teeth, pulled off my pajamas and entered the jacuzzi after filling it with warm soapy water.

I walked out of the bathroom, with a towel wrapped around my waist.
I walked to the bed and dried my body before putting on my underwear.
I applied my body spray and started putting on my school wears.
I sat on the bed, sliding my feet into my black socks and then slide my socked feet into my black shoes.
I picked my phone and stood up.
I threw it in my backpack and zipped it.
I walked to the drawer and grabbed a comb.
I stood in front of of the mirror and combed my hair, styling it into my favorite.
I cleaned my comb and put it back in the drawer.
I backed my backpack,glanced at the wall clock and slowly walked out of my room.
“Dan wait for me” I heard as i was about descending the stairs.
I stopped and glanced back to see Mike also dressed for school,he looked cool,no one would know he sells trouble in bulk.
He was already in front of me within seconds.
“Did you use superpower?” I asked as we both descended the stairs.
“Yes!” He grinned.
“Should i do it again?” He asked.
“No,do..” i was saying but he already jumped,he tripped and fell hard on his butt followed by his wails.
I laughed and walked faster to help him up.
“Sorry,but i told you not to” I said and laughed.
“I was trying to impress you” He cried.
“Are you really crying?” I asked trying hard to hold my brewing laughter.
“Let me be!” He yelled and stood up, walking straight to the kitchen.
I laughed and walked to the living room to greet dad.
“Good morning Dad” I greeted when i got to the living room ..
He was going through piles of art books.
That’s his normal routine.
“Morning Dan,how was your night?” He asked.
“Fine dad” I said.
“Dan come have your breakfast,i won’t allow you to make me go late to school today” Mike shouted from the living room.
“That boy is something else” Dad said and i chuckled.
I walked to the dining room and met him eating, smiling and talking to himself.
I shook my head and dropped my backpack on one of the dining chairs.
I sat down.
“Good morning Mum” I said loudly and started eating.
“How was your night Dan?” She asked from the kitchen.
“Fine Mum” I said.
I was still eating when Mum walked out of the kitchen,she’s fully dressed for work.
“Hi darlings” She smiled.
“Hey Mum” I said with a mouthful of toast bread.
“I hope you’re enjoying your breakfast?”
I nodded except Mike who has already finished eating staring at my own.
“Let me go get my bag” She said and walked away.
I remained some toast bread for Mike.
He smiled and ate it reminding him to remain coffee for him.
I did and he also gulped it down
without saying thanks.
We stared at each other and i was expecting him to say ‘thanks’ but i realised he’s not gonna say that.
I picked my little coffee spoon and hit his head twice.
“Ouch..what was that for? Why do you like hitting spoons on my head” He frowned.
I stood up and wore my backpack over my shoulders.
“For not saying ‘thanks’ ” I said.
“I can’t say thanks because you’re my brother,i only say thanks to outsiders” He said and also picked his backpack.
“Okay from now on,i won’t also give you anything,I’ll only give things to outsiders” I said.
“Lies” he said.
“Darlings let’s go” Mum said.
Mike took our plates to the kitchen and hurried back.
*
In few minutes Mum was speeding towards the direction of my school.
Mike kept talking on and on in the car until i had to make use of my headphone.
I snapped my fingers, smiling as i listened to an old music by Fallen angels.
Even if they are retired, their songs are not.
I’m glad i have something of theirs on me.
I brought out my necklace from my school shirt and kissed it.
I don’t like showing it off to avoid unnecessary questions.
I always leave the pendant part in my shirt and only reveal the chain.
Dad told me he was one of the lucky fans who got the necklace,i had asked him who the second lucky fan was but he didn’t respond.
There are now duplicates of this necklaces,it’s seen on almost everyone’s neck but i know the original always shine brighter whenever water touches it.
I wonder where the second necklace is,i know it’s gonna be so far away.
I remember when i saw it on karissa’s neck,i thought she might be related to the second lucky fan but it turned out to be the duplicate.
I was so sad cause i always feel that longing to meet with the second lucky fan.
She doesn’t wear it anymore cause she feels it’s outdated, almost every one do not wear it anymore but i do and I’m sure the second person also do.
I tucked it back in my shirt when Mum approached my school gate.
She parked and i alighted after saying goodbye to her and Mike.
I watched as she drove off.
I showed my ID card to the gatekeeper and walked into the school compound.
I got the attention i always get and waved at the people saying hi to me.
I opened the door and to my class and walked in.
“Hi Dan” They chorused.
“Hello everyone” I smiled and started walking to my seat.
Karissa smiled as i walked past her seat,i smiled back.
I dragged jacq’s hair in greetings and she smiled.
I got to my seat and felt my stomach tighten a little when i noticed beautiful psycho is seated.
Her head is placed on the desk and her smooth black hair looked tempting.
I almost slapped myself for wanting to touch her hair.
I sat down and waited for our teacher to come in but i couldn’t keep my gaze off this psycho.
She suddenly raised up her head and i quickly turned mine away.
??LUNCH BREAK
“Seriously Karissa why would you tell them to kneel down,what problem do you have with this two girls?” Jacq asked in anger after Karissa told the two fat girls to kneel down again today which they did,with their lunch in their hands.
“Is it any of your business?” Karissa yelled at Jacq.
“What did they do to you for goodness sake! You told them not to greet Dan yesterday and they didn’t,they were walking to their table when you called them back and asked them to kneel down. Aren’t they students like you!” Jacq yelled.
“Fat pigs are not students like me okay?” She said.
My gaze was on beautiful psycho all this while and she suddenly stood up from her table,held her pie and marched angrily to our table.
People paved way for her as she walked past them.
She got to our table and suddenly smashed her pie on karissa’s face.
She dragged her up and slapped her twice on both cheeks.
Karissa screamed, struggling with her face messed with pie..
I was surprised..whats going on?
Students already gathered…
“How dare you bully them! How dare you mock them! How dare you treat them like thrash! How dare you make them cry! How dare you make them feel guilty just because of the way they are created!” Beautiful psycho screamed,her voice echoed the cafeteria.
She punched Karissa on the face.
“Dan do something” Karissa cried.
Ahh…what should i do?
“Now you both should stand up!” Psycho yelled at the two fat girls.
They both stood up quickly.
“I’m disappointed in you both, you are the ones who are supposed to bully her,not the other way round.. either way,i hate bullies and mockers…” She was saying but got interrupted by Travis.
“Hey stop,what do you think you are doing?” He asked.
“I’m doing what you,the empty brained school prefect can’t do,so just shut the hell you call a mouth” Psycho said boldly and the students exclaimed.
She hissed and turned back to the girls.
“She called you fat right?” She asked and the girls nodded.
“Every body structure has advantage and right now,i want you to show her what fat people are capable of” Psycho said.
One of the fat girls dropped her tray of lunch and gave Karissa a powerful kick in the stomach.
The students roared and i was surprised myself.
Jacq laughed..
The second fat girl also joined the first one and together they started beating Karissa who was pleading and screaming in pain.
Wow! I can’t believe Karissa can plead to the people she once bullied.
This is nice … beautiful psycho actually made it happen.
