Lies between Us

How I started to like him.

I can't fall asleep. Rolling over the bed again and again thinking hardly how to make him to notice me. He has a lot of fan. Hundred,thousand, millions fans knows about him. Plus, he is also the center and face of their group despite being the youngest member.

Reminisce the days when I first saw him was when our school celebrates its 35th Anniversary likely two years ago. That time, there were many event and telematch

including audition competition like singing,dancing, musical, theather and others.

At that time, he already famous with his singing and dancing capability. That is why our school principal did not hesitately offer him to go to the audition at K.J Entertainment to pursue his dreams. Moreover,he also took Art and Film in the school. Compare to me, I took Account and Banking services subject in this school which is very tough and challenging. To be honest, this school divided the student based on their interpersonal and intrapersonal skill also based on the result of student's achievement and the talent of their own. Because this school is none like other, it offer more like university student subject. And because of that rules, our school is one of the Top school in the country.

Back to old days, I still remember when he won both of Singing and dancing competition selected by the most popular Choreographer, Adam Sleth and Popular former star Mrs Sonia Jane.

"Rayyas Kein" such a beautiful name and in itself has its own unique and strong aura. Very expected and promising student that make our school proud.

Walking to the stage, his undercut hair neatly arranged suits his black smooth natural hair. All the attention are on him.

At that time, I didn't aware of his presence as I am introvert but friendly person. But inside, I'm very tender hearted and quite cold sometimes. The surrounding doesn't matter to me at all but this is the first time I felt like this, something I don't ever expected to feel.

Not realizing that i'm giggling all alone in this silent night, hugging my pillow.

Tap. Tap. Tap. A small tapping sound under my bed startled me.

"You haven't sleep yet?" Shirly looked at his watch on her hand with her eyes half asleep.

"It's almost 2pm. Go to sleep." She continue with her hoarse voice.

I stopped from my late night daydreaming.

Then, I will just go to sleep.

The sound of my ringtone and its vibrates sound woke me up. I shut off my alarm and streching my stiff muscles before I get up from my bunk bed. Shirly still sound asleep. I took a shower spending 30 minutes on it really makes my body refresh. I am the first to wake up because I took such a long time to shower and to get ready to. After finishing I wake Shirly up and I started to dry my hair and tie my hair. In front of the mirror, I will do the ponytail style. Really suits my smooth long black hair.

The phone rings on my bed. I wonder who is it to call me early this morning. I go over the phone rings and I saw "Mrs Diana Tarry". My stepmother. I feel somehow don't want to pick it up. What is the matter to call me today?? I just wonder. Lazily, I press the green button.

" What is it you call me this morning, mom?"

" Are you going back this afternoon? It's friday you know." With her ignorance voice.

"I'll see later. If I want to see dad then I will go back home today. If nothing so important then I won't"

"Glad that you know" She continue.

"Then, maybe I will go back home. See you there" I reply softly but in a sharp voice. Then I just hang up.

I will go back.

The reasons why I choose to stay in the hostel is because of her. My stepmother. Because my mother dead because of cancer, my dad get remarried with a woman when I was 11 years old. She is a woman with her career, an office worker somehow my dad secretary for 10 years. I somehow don't like her because she somehow seems like a snake woman. A gold digger that want my family's fortune. I will study hard to take over my family's wealth and I won't let anyone get it from me. My family heritage that my grandfather build over the 30 years, I won't let it slipped from my family.

Staying in the hostel very much more comfortable and I feel like a living person here. And I really like it because in the night, it's very quiet and peaceful because all the student are busy studying.
