"My name is Clair Tent, Not the girl you can mess with. This is my territory, Find yours!" Clair declared as she chuckled lightly.
That was when it down on Tara. The Tent spoilt heiress.
Clair smiled mockingly as she stare at Tara. Daring her to act if she can.
Tara smiled seeing the territorial display of the spoilt heiress. She have heard so much about this girl's impudent behaviour.
Due to the long endless enemity between the two families, their generation are trained with the knowledge of their opponents.
People said that the reason why the two families refuse to reconcile is to avoid further set back. The two families seem oblivious of the mass opinion as they hardly act according to tabloid opinion.
" Really..." Tara retorted as she slightly raised her eyebrow. "I am back now. We will see about" She turned and left with her bodyguards.
That girl I warned to stay away from my territory is not only in by territory but now growing wings inside my ...my own territory.
Krane mopped sheepishly from Tara to Clair. They seem to be talking in parables as none of what they are saying makes sense to me.
Tara and Clair glared at eachother as none of them knows what to say. The former turned and left with a sad expression.
Clair and Krane stare at her retreating figure.The area was in silence for over five minutes until Krane cleared her throat.
"Eemm... Clair, pleas..." Krane tried to explain but was interrupted by Claire.
"I am sorry Krane" She paused as she averted her eyes to entrance of the school. " I...I am sorry for all the insult " her voice slightly cracked as she look everywhere but to Krane.
Krane gave her a look with shock written all over his face. He immediately masked it as Clair turn to him.
"I might be a little late but I can't lose to her, not when I am around" Clair reasoned with a frown on her face.
" So I am some sort of trophy to be won by either of you" Krane fired as stare blankly at her.
" No no...not that, I want you. I care about you a lot...but she said she can't let you go and I can't either" Clair defend. She walk towards Krane but Krane keep stepping back as she moves.
" Don't...come any closer" Krane whispered bitterly." I can never be a possession to be claimed, if I was then,I cease to be. Not to you or to anybody"
Clair was slightly taken aback by Krane outburst. The poor boy who hardly voice his opinion is now telling her what to do. She was shocked to say the least.
"I never for once regarded you as a possession, I see you as a friend. i' m sorry if that was the impression you got from me but that was never my intention" Clair explained with a sincere expression.
"I need to go, I can't deal with this now" Krane said abruptly
"Alright, I will stop by on my way home"

Two months before
Inside the classroom, students were seated scattered in the class.
A shriek was heard as student started running helter-skelter.
" I think C.T is here" muttered one of the guys that was seated with three other guys.
The three guys turned with a pitiful expression at their friend in their midst.
Krane smile gently as he wave them down.Why would they give him such and expression when it is clear that he was enjoying himself.
Moreover, this relationship is more of a parasitic relationship for him. He benefits more from it and yet if all feels right.
Writing her exams will never amount to the money she gives him on daily base. Maybe just maybe you can add up the small errand she runs for her regularly.
" Hello Krane, I need my Lunch in my car..." Krane stop briefly to retrieve her phone from her pink bag. She was dressed in a pink gown. A pink six inches high heels. Almost all her dolled up was in pink.
" I will eat..." she pursed a slight frown appeared on her face. " What...? that b***h"
They guys exchanged glances as each await her outburst. It was deemed necessary as that's C.T.
"who the hell does she think she is, Well someone haven't learnt her lesson" She smile coyly as she her face lit up. " I think I better go get her next lesson ready"
She stood up, glance briefly at The four grip and left.
"What better way to start a week, the Queen won't be needing your services after all" Declared one of Krane's friends.
He was the guy with a blond hair which reach his shoulder. His grey eyes compliment his oval face. His name is Elijah but was fondly called Eli by his classmates.
" I bet you " the four of them said uniformly as they burst in a fist of laughter at the departing figure of Clair.
"She not only dolled herself like Barbie her phone look like a toy" Commented one of the identical twins seated side by side to each other.
"I heard that and you what ...Krane will have to go with me" Came the sudden voice of Clair as she stare fiercely at the twins who look back at her.
" I should have known that the laughty was directed to me when I left" Clair commented.
"Not just to you baby but to your Barbie dull" joked Eli as everyone laugh except for Krane.
Krane was paying such a keen attention to Clair that he lost himself in the discussion. Not Minding that his friends came to keep him company.
"Alright guys...I need to discuss some privately with Krane,excise us." Clair said head straight as the laugh died down
Gradually...the three boys left the spot for Krane and Clair as both of them entered into a deep discussion.
