Alex, Pov:
I got up excitedly when my alarm clock rang! I'm so excited for today at the same time I feel nervous. This is the first day of School, and this is my first time entering such an expensive and very famous International School here in the Philippines.
The Helix International School...
I've been dreaming of this day! I never even thought that this day will come. All of my hardships are worth it! What I've been through is not a joke, it's one of a hell for me. But because this is my dream, I will go over hell and back just to reach my goal. That's how much I treasure my dream.
I won't waste it, this is it! "Thanks God! You gave me intelligence." I chuckled on what I was said.
"I hope that I can have a memory card in my brain Alex, like you!" I got shocked when Erich my bestfriend hug me from the back.
I laughed for what she said, a memory card? "You know that there is no memory card in my brain Erich," I smiled, "I'm inborn smart." I proudly say.
She go away so I faced her, "you're so arrogant to me Alex!" Erich said while pouting.
"Do you even need to be so smart if you're already rich?" I asked her now seriously, because if I'm rich I think I can just do easily the hard things in life. "You know that I needed this intelligence to overcome hard things in my life because I'm poor." I added.
"Alex, I'm here, I told you. I can help you financially, it's just a friendly help, and you know, how could my family becomes rich without brain so rich people need it too dzuh." She give me a dzuh look. "We need brain too to make a damn money for a living."
"I thought your money is making money itself, that is why I thought I can't be rich because I don't have money to make money itself too." I joked.
She rolled her eyes, "don't make some nonsense Alex, your acting as if you're not a top notcher. By the way I'm going we'll be late if I fight you back." She said as she left.
I smiled, she see herself low, but everyone see her flying with a high profile because of their famous surname. Erich is not only rich, she's smart too acting like she's not. Other than that, she's kind, true, vulgar, and sometimes b***h but with a heart.
How many times did I wish to be like her?
I shake my head as I continue to fix my things, when I'm done fixing my things I moved to get my towel and take a bath.
I brush my teeth properly until I finish brushing it. Then I stare myself infront of the mirror's bathroom, "you can do it..." I whispered.
My nervousness is back, how could I not be nervous if a poor like me will study now in the school of the rich people.
I'm just holding onto it because this is what I wanted, this is what I dreamed, and besides I passed my scholarship, It's not a joke at all. Almost all of the test I have taken was harder than I think it could be. That's the only thing that I should be proud of, so please earth to myself be strong.
When I finished my bath, I started to wear my uniform. While I'm busy wearing it, I can't take off my smile off of my face. If someone stranger see me like this, he or she might think that I'm crazy.
I go infront of the Mirror to see myself if the uniform fits in me well. I can't stop myself from smiling widely, the uniform fits in me well. Plus it's so very beautiful, the color of blouse is white and the coat is red partner with red small skirt that has white small stripes.
"Wow! The uniform fits in you well, you're so very beautiful Alex! I'm sure many boys in school will drool over you." She over complimented to me that my cheeks got burned with my own blush that I needed to hide it from her through my hand.
"Erich!" I murmured.
She laughed, "what?" Erich innocently asked. "I'm just stating a fact! C'mon Alex, don't get your cheeks burned. Seriously?" She teased me.
"Stop it Erich, let's just go." I avoided what she was said.
"Yeah yeah whatever, your legs looks fragile by the way."
"Stop it Erich!"
She laughed. "Bunch of boys at School will want to care of that delectable legs of yours Alex, c'mon."
I rolled my eyes.
I walked away and go out at the room. That girl just makes my cheeks burned. Now I felt nervous, I need to chill. I'm not going to School for boys, I'm going there to study.
I inhaled deeply as I wear my black shoes. It's shining, looks so expensive. Erich brought it for me even though I told her that I can afford, but knowing her, I can't stop her when it comes to things.
My socks looks so expensive too, ofcourse Erich bought it again for me. She's so very kind bestfriend of mine even though she has this b***h attitude towards me, and she always been honest with everyone about her b***h attitude. She's a fighter, that is why many Man wants her. Erich is a vocal person, her mouth has no filter at all and because of that she had so many enemies.
"Do you like it Alex?" Erich asked.
I nodded and smiled, "Yes but--"
"It's not a big thing sez stop your buts it's annoying me." She cut me off.
"Thankyou then."
"It's much more better, let's go?"
"Okay let's go."
Then we both left the house together and went straight to Erich's car. Yes she has a car because obviously she is rich and Erich is in legal age that's why she can already drive. She don't like to have her own driver because she said she's independent person.
I entered the car and seat beside the driver's seat. Erich started the engine and we left the house.
While she's driving, I can't stop myself to be nervous. My hands becomes colder and colder while we're in the road going to school. I inahaled, my heart can't stop from beating faster.
I'm thinking, what would might be happen? I hope it's going to be good.
"Hey Alex, chill sez." I turn my stare from Erich and I smiled at her, assuring her that I'm cool.
I turned back my sight from the window. I really love places, I wanna travel soon. I saw some expensives restaurant, hotels, malls, and many differents establishments. The place is clean, but polluted area atleast no more garbages onto the streets.
My nervousness attack me when I already saw the School.
"Don't you worry sez, I told you that I got you. No one will hurt you, I will not allow it. Your bestfriend is a b***h remember that."
"Erich! No one will hurt me okay?"
"You don't know, now, let's go out." She said and go out from the car and I followed.
She throw the car keys to the guard I think and then she come near me, "let's go." She started to walk.
"Okay." I followed her.
This School is really big, I can already see so many benches under the trees. There are alots of students already whose having a good conversation with their friends, they look so rich, and here I am. I looked myself so low.
"Omygossshhhhh!!!!!!"
I got shocked when so many girls are screeching and jumping like so excited. What happening? I turned around to see what they are looking at. And I see a Man going out from his car wearing a black shades looking so mature, handsome, and rich. He's just wearing sweatpants and just a plain white tshirts. He looks like a freaking model, I can see that his body is built well.
"Tsk! Seriously? Girls are screeching because of Kyler." Erich commented.
"You know him?"
"Yes, hes a campus crush but already graduated. I don't know why he's here when he already graduated." Erich rolled her eyes.
"So what's the problem?"
"There is no problem about it, I'm just curious why the hell girls has a crush on him? He don't even have a look for me."
"Are you blind?" I can't believe her.
"Nope, I saw a lot of handsome in the world but I never shriek because of it. Over react girls are yucks." She acts like she's disgusted.
I shaked my head and for the last time I looked again in the guy named Kyler.
"Are you new here?" I stepped backward because of shocked when the guy I was about to look are already infront of me.
My heart beats fast as I looked at his face that is already close to mine.
What the heck???
