7 Wedding Day
The students prepare for their school fare, each class has their own booths while the school is in charge of the carnival rides.
Ken safely kept the bracelet he bought from Vince when suddenly his world stopped; in his line of vision is the stunning Aila.
Aila is wearing a denim skirt which was short enough to showcase her smooth legs... For her top, she is wearing a simple white off-shoulder blouse and dyed white sneakers.
Her natural long brown locks were flowing naturally, this is a rare sight for most of her schoolmates since she usually just keeps her hair in a neat ponytail.
Aila just came from a photoshoot for a cell phone print advert that she got signed with.
"My princess friend is here!" Reese hugged Aila as soon as she saw her.
That phrase sent shivers down Aila's spine as she thought to herself…
"I can't be exposed this early on…" She decided to respond as cool as she can.
"Hahaha! I didn't even get the chance to go home to get changed and this make-up has not been removed properly, I'm sorry I am very late."
Aila noticed that her classmates were mostly staring at her.
Ken was noticeably looking intently at her with his mouth gaping, Aila thought of teasing him. She approached him and with one finger, she closed his mouth.
Aila chuckled and jokingly told him;
"Be calm, it's just me… a fly can easily enter your mouth" as Aila's dimples appeared, Ken's heart melted even more.
Aila and Reese went to Roy; (their class president) to see their tasks for the jail booth that is assigned for their class.
"You and Reese are assigned this afternoon at 4 pm; you still have 10 minutes to prepare then please go there to change with the guys guarding there"
The two nodded, in agreement with Roy. They decided to buy drinks first before taking their shift, Aila readily saw that there were not too many people in their booth. This made them feel a little bit down since the classes will be ranked based on their ticket sales.
The concept of their jail booth is to capture anyone wearing black that passes by in front of their booth, they earn tickets when the captured students pay for bail which costs $2 if they want to be freed but if not, they will have to stay in their makeshift jail for 10min.
Aila and Reese stood in front of their booth wearing cop costumes and began to spot for students wearing black. 20 minutes have already passed no one was buying tickets to bail out, and there were still students waiting to enter their booth, most of which are not even wearing black.
Reese was quite frustrated, thinking that they will absolutely lose the ranking if this continues on.
"Brothers, this is not how it works, you need to buy your tickets so that you can be free, it's not the other way around"
The students inside laughed at Reese, and are apparently enjoying the view of Aila near them.
Roy heard about the situation of their booth, he immediately went to see Aila and Reese.
"This is not working guys, we will not earn enough tickets if they prefer to go to jail than be freed," the class president said directly to Aila.
Aila pondered for a while and thought of a weird twist for their jail booth. She whispered to Roy. "Roy, I have an idea if you will allow it."
They changed the rules, $2 ticket to jail, and get a picture with Aila with the mug shot card and background. In a few minutes, those who wanted to take a picture with Aila lined up and in no time they kept on piling.
It was already past 5 PM and there are still many people in line, Aila is getting tired, taking pictures and accommodating everyone who wanted to be jailed.
Ken's temper was thru the roof while watching what's happening, "What the F** Roy, it looks like you're pimping my Ai"
"Seriously, look how everyone wants to be jailed and are going out with a smile on their faces!" Roy replied, happy with the number of tickets they sold.
Ken glared at Roy, still furious with the men taking pictures with Aila.
"Chillout, this is Aila's bright Idea, if you want to have a picture with her,
nobody's stopping you, just please fall in line like the rest of the guys."
On the other side of the campus, the rumor of Aila's section was successful
because they did a gimmick reached the girls that hated her the most.
"Stop me, I am really going to pull that girl back to earth, why would she do that? Does she feel superior to us?" Rachelle is obviously pissed off. Tracy had the realization and shared it with Rachelle.
"That's why we are so bored here at our kissing booth because all men are in her booth"
Tracy snapped.
"This was your whole idea! We can't lose!" The class president of Rachelle and Tracy scolded them angrily.
"Here's a hundred dollars; if you can bring Ken here then I will buy tickets!" Rachelle challenged her classmates, wanting to earn tickets they all run to the other side of the campus to look for Ken.
"Roy, it's almost 6 pm, can we change guards? I'm a little tired too ..." Aila respectfully requested to Roy. The jailed students heard Aila so they complained to Roy.
"You can't do that! We are here because of Aila, you can't just let her leave!"
"Yes indeed! We have already paid" The students protested.
Aila's only thought was to escape. She stepped backward when she collided with Ken who was also running away from Rachelle's group.
They were almost caught when Ken suddenly pulled Aila's hand into the other tent, which is the wedding booth of the other class.
"Good afternoon, I will preside with the ceremonies; fill out these forms so we can do it"
"Hi-we are not...Aila had not finished speaking yet when the student who gave them the form came out of the tent.
"Just chill out, we'll just hide here for a while because I'm running away from Rachelle", Ken assured Aila that it was not his intention to put her on the spot.
Aila understood and did not leave, they both need to hide now so she did not argue further. Ken peeked, he saw Rachelle's group still within the vicinity.
The presiding student went in again and started with the ceremony, they both just went along with it to buy time because they did not want to be thrown out of the tent. They ended the wedding booth ceremony including the wedding picture, that they had to take.
"Let's go!" Ken grabs Aila again and they ran towards the carnival rides.
They rode the Ferris wheel. They sat face to face, Aila felt a little off because Ken was staring at her.
"That picture of ours is mine, I'll put it in my wallet" Ken pointed out to Aila.
"Just don't use it to make a potion for me." Aila joked to ease the tension between them. Ken took out a pen and wrote on the back of the picture.
"What are you writing there? Do you want a dedication or an autograph? Hahaha," Aila asked Ken.
"I'm just writing the date today, Aug 23, 2004 ... Our wedding day"
