Students had returned back to school. Everyone discussed their excursion thrills . Anna sat on her chair with her hands on chins.
*ANNA POV*
"Hey baby girl!" Mel pounced on me. "Oh Mel, I've told you to stop scaring me." She giggled. "Yeah, I'm sorry, okay?" She pouted. "How did it go with you and Jin?" She asked. "Which Jin?" I asked, confused. "Have you forgotten about the idol?" She questioned. "Oh, not amazing as you think." I replied.
"You don't mean it, do you?" She asked with wide eyes. "I didn't tell her what transpired between me and Jane, so no jist now." She pouted again. "Besides, how is Ken doing?" She asked, changing the topic. "Not bad. I think he's a little repentant."
I said as she burst into laughter. Why wouldn't he be when he has a vampire sister? She said and laughed again. I chased her off and by the time we returned, a letter had been dropped on my table. I and Mel exchanged quick glances. She gave me the go ahead sign. I opened it and the content read, " MEET ME UNDER THE APPLE TREE".
It was an anonymous letter, and I got frightened but curious at the same time. I and Mel exchanged glances for the second time. Don't worry, let's go and check who it is, Mel said boldly.
FEW MINUTES LATER
We got to the school garden, but it then dawned on us that the apple tree was at the back of the school library. The library has its separate building so that decorum can be maintained in there. Is the person so crazy that he or she did not say in the school field, in the cafeteria, or anywhere else, Mel spat out an irritation?
"I am still curious about the person, Mel," I added. "Let's go see the beast who sent this," she said again, pointing to the paper while I kept staring at it. We cautiously moved our way to the apple tree. Low and behold, we saw a guy sitting under the tree with his back facing us. "Hi," I said. The guy turned and low and behold, it was Darlington, the school hottie too.
Mel's word rushed into the rivers of my thoughts.* "Beware of him. He is a playboy and he doesn't care having a nightstand within his reach........"
I don't need a nightstand, sorry. I said walking away. Hey, I don't bite. He called back and held onto my right hand. Mel stood hiding behind the library and watching us.
Darlington moved closer to me and stared deeply into my eyes. Look babe, ever since you stepped into the school, I have never found a girl as hot as you. I am deeply in love with you. Please give me this chance to prove it to you, he said with a face that seemed sober.
What kind of trouble have I gotten into? First, I bumped into the school idol,next, I was made his partner, now this playboy, Darlington, wants me to be his girlfriend.
Please let me be. I don't want to be anyone's girlfriend. I excused, trying to break free. But his grip became tighter. For crying out loud, I don't want anyone. I said aloud. Then his gaze met mine. He's damn cute. But I don't want to make any mistake. Please just...
... You heard her right. She's not interested. The idol cut in approaching us. I was surprised.
Let go of her. He continued ,loosening Darlington's grip on me.

*ISABEL POV*
One, two, three..... Kira kept on counting the number of makeup sets that had just been delivered to us. Oh, I didn't tell you? Well, I am Treasure High Goddess, an aspiring model dedicated to her modeling ambition.
Isabel, Kira called.
Yes, Kira, how may I be of help? I asked while filing my nails.
Don't you think it's high time we change the wardrobe apart from makeup? She asked. Sure, it's a good idea. I agreed. Kira, I called out.
Don't you think it's high time I do something about that filth? I asked, agitated. Who? Kira asked with raised brows. Anna of course. I so much detest her. I spat out.
"Mmm, me too, but let's leave her aside." Kira waved. "Come to think about how she humiliated us before the whole class," I said angrily. "Besides, she wasn't the only one. Her friend connived with her too." Kira added, "Let's just ignore them. For they're poor and seeking attention." We both laughed aloud.

*ANNA POV*
I got back home feeling flushed. I didn't go to the shop. The whole episode replayed in my head like a projector. Maybe I will go later to the shop. I sighed. I felt a sudden flow of nervousness. I got into the kitchen and helped myself with a glass of water. My stomach growled due to hunger and I looked up at the clock. Quarter to six.It read.
I guess I will start heading to the shop.

*DARLINGTON POV*
I sat on the chair. "Chan-Mi!" I called. The maid rushed in, almost running. "Prepare my room, but first of all, get me a glass of juice," I ordered. "Yes, young master," she said and took a bow and left just like the same way she came in. "Oh, Anna," I exhaled deeply. I remembered how her cute eyeballs stared into mine. A vivid smile escaped my lips then a frown followed at the remembrance of Jin who had interrupted during that moment. I so much hate him. Here sir. The maid offered the juice her voice called me back to sanity.
Hmm..........

*JIN POV*
"Honey, isn't it high time you release a song?" Mom pointed out. "Why?" I asked. "Well, it's because your fans out there are worried and they feel so empty because there is no one giving the vibes. I miss your voice too." Mom explained. "Mom, please. I need space for now. Let my fans be. They'll get over it." I scoffed.
Come on, Jin, don't be so mean. Mom yelled. I will go freshen up and rest. Enjoy yourself. I exhaled and headed upstairs. Punk. I heard mom say.
