The Return of the Richest Boy The hallway buzzed with excitement. A group of girls stood by the lecture hall entrance, laughing, chatting, and stealing glances at the door. Their faces were glowing with anticipation. “I heard Rihan is back,” one of them whispered eagerly. “Where is he?!” another girl asked, her voice almost a squeal. “Relax, Adriana. You’re being dramatic,” one of the girls giggled. They all laughed, but their eyes stayed fixed on the hallway, waiting for just a glimpse of him. From a distance, Daisy overheard the conversation. She raised an eyebrow in surprise. One guy has all of them this obsessed? she thought. “Every day, they fight over each other just because of Rihan,” Isabell whispered beside her. Daisy smirked. “Who wouldn’t? He’s so hot and dreamy,” Isabell continued, pretending to swoon. Daisy rolled her eyes. “Gotta run. I have class,” Isabell said, giving Daisy a quick wave before walking away. Daisy sighed. The idea of spending the day alone made her stomach twist. She checked her timetable again—classes had been cancelled for the rest of the day. With nothing to do, she decided to explore the university grounds. --- Later That Afternoon... While walking behind one of the lecture halls, Daisy stumbled upon a hidden path. Curiosity tugged at her, and she followed it until it led her to a serene stream she’d never seen before. “Strange,” she murmured. “Isabell never told me about this.” The place was quiet and beautiful. Birds chirped nearby. The sky stretched endlessly above, and beside the stream was a small, private beach with a modern house perched in the distance. She stayed near the water’s edge, admiring the view. This place is like a secret world, she thought. Peaceful. Perfect. Just as she sat down, a cold voice cut through the silence. “What are you doing here?” Daisy turned, startled. Standing behind her was the most handsome boy she had ever seen. Tall, striking, with dark hair and intense eyes—but those eyes were cold. Emotionless. Like they had long forgotten how to feel. --- Rihan’s POV From his bedroom window, Rihan spotted a silhouette by the stream—his stream. Annoyed, he lit a cigarette and leaned on the window frame. “Why must people always trespass?” he muttered. “She’s in trouble,” his bodyguard Kyle said quietly. Rihan crushed the cigarette in the ashtray and stood up. “I’ll handle it.” --- Back outside, he approached the girl, his steps slow and intimidating. “Are you deaf?” he snapped. “I said—what are you doing here?” Daisy, already used to harsh tones, replied calmly, “I wandered off... I didn’t know this place was off-limits.” “Didn’t you see the sign?” he said, rubbing his temples like she was giving him a headache. “I saw it, but I didn’t read it,” she replied truthfully. “It says ‘NO HUMANS ALLOWED – Especially Females.’” Daisy blinked in confusion, then let out a genuine laugh. “No humans? What kind of sign is that? Are animals the only ones allowed here?” For a moment, Rihan froze. No one had ever laughed at his rule. Then his expression darkened, eyes flashing with a dangerous glint. “Get out,” he snarled. Daisy’s smile vanished. Her instincts screamed at her to run. She grabbed her bag and scurried away without another word. --- Back in the Dorm... She slammed the door shut behind her, out of breath. Isabell looked up from her bed. “Whoa. What happened to you?” “You’ll never believe what just happened” Daisy said, still catching her breath. did you know there was a stream behind the school “That stream behind the school? you knew . why didn't you tell me? Daisy asked raising an eyebrow. first tell me what happened . after narrating the story to Isabell. wow this is funny!.Isabella laughed. You met Rihan Clatzer Daisy ! Isabell exclaimed. Daisy sighed her eyes saying what's the big deal; he was so cold, rude, and scary. l hope l never encounter him again. Isabell stared at her like she’d seen a ghost. “Daisy… that’s the richest boy in the school. He owns that entire property. There are rumors—about people who sneak into that area and come out... injured. Some never return.” Daisy swallowed hard. “Well, now I know why the sign was so... aggressive.” Isabell gave her a serious look. “You're lucky he let you go.” Then she smiled dreamily. “Still, I’d do anything to have him speak to me, even if it’s just to yell. I can’t believe you got to talk to him...” Daisy gave her a tired look. “I’d gladly trade places with you.” They both laughed, and for a moment, the tension faded. “Good night, Isabell,” Daisy said, pulling the covers over herself. “Night, Daisy,” her friend replied, still smiling like she’d just touched a star.
