Let the fun begin

Jamie POV

"Honey, where do you want to go right now?"

"Mommy, on the beach or sea because I want to feel fresh air"

"Let's go honey, since our home is near at the sea and you can just walk on the cliff"

"Okay mommy"

She walks me out and holds my hand tightly so that I won't go anywhere

"Mommy, where is daddy? Oppa and Eonnie? Are they busy right now?"

"Honey, they will come here. They just need to finish something"

"Really mommy? Did they buy me an ice cream?"

"Do you want some ice cream?"

"I can buy you later, let's wait for them okay. Or maybe I'll ask them to buy you ice cream so that we could eat later at home"

"Yehey! Thank you mommy"

"Oh wait, just stay here honey, Mommy is going to answer this call and I'll be right back for awhile"

I walk around and saw a butterfly flying which I followed it

"Butterfly, where are you going?"

"Just stay still"

"I'm not going to harm you"

"You're so pretty, I hope I could touch you"

"My name is jamie, maybe I should call Beauty"

She flies a bit away from me but still I walk towards to her until I didn't realize that I fell of the cliff which makes me drown

"Is anyone there? Help me" I don't know what to do and all I can do is to cry. I already drink all the water here in the sea and I still don't know how to swim very well because I'm still taking my swimming lesson

"Please help me"

"Help me"

"Help me" I think no one can hear me

"Mom, someone is drowning. We should call a help"

"Just stay here divine, I'm going to ask for a help"

I drowned completely so my body was almost weak so I couldn't swim properly because I felt heavy. My vision is also blurred. Suddenly someone jumped into the water and swim forward towards me but I couldn't see how he looked like because I can't see clearly but I think it is a boy maybe same age with me

"He...he....hel...help me" he was about to move closer to me and pulled me until he could swim up. We finally got out of the sea and I took a deep breath and I just cried and cried because I felt sick and I also drank a lot of water.

"Are you alright?" he asked me which I can't answer him right now since I need to do deep breathing

"Where did your mom go? Or are you alone here?"

*sniff* "My ....mom...went to ... take...." *sob*

"Don't cry now. Maybe she will come back"

"I don't know" I cried and I'm still trying to breathe

"At least you're fine now" he stands up and he wrapped his clothes to dry it a little. He was about to leave but I stop him

"I am jamie, and what is your name?" I asked him because I would like to thank him for saving me

"Ah I'm...."

"Honey, where are you?"

"Mom, I'm here" he said and I think she is looking for him already

"Maybe I'll need to go now, my mom is looking for me" he said and left without me knowing his name which make me made sad and cried because I don't know when will I met him again.

Then he went back to me and put something on my neck which I notice is a necklace written on it is "You are my sunshine". He wiped my tears and hugged me so that I would stop crying

"Don't cry, smile now. I'll promise to come back and meet you again. At least you're okay and keep that necklace with you so that I could remember you once I saw you wearing that necklace. It's from my grandpa and don't lose it. Let's meet again" then he bid goodbye and wave at me back while smiling

Why do I hear alarm clock right now? I suddenly woke up because it's too loud and I saw myself lying on the bed which I look around and I don't know where I am?

Someone is holding my hand then I can see she is sleeping.

I try to stand up but why do I feel week right now and all I remember I passed out and I don't know what happened anymore. Because I had a dreamed of that crazy stalker and then suddenly I saw that mico laughing at me because I look in the mirror which something written on my face.

Then I was looking for him and it makes me feel pissed off then I slipped off all of a sudden which make my butt hurts and trying to stand up but I can't because I can't move an inch then the lights went off and I was looking for my phone then I hear that voice of the crazy stalker that made me feel scared, nervous and cry which I couldn't breathe properly.

I think I'm calling out for a help but I'm not sure either because I'm having hard time to see who help me when I passed out then I must know or find out who help me because if wouldn't that person, I don't know what will happen to me that night. Also, I think I touch that person face but it has soft face.

Now, I have another dream but this time it's different.

The guy who saved me when I almost drowned on the sea and I'm still grateful that I'm still alive because of him and one thing is that I don't know his name because he couldn't tell me when his mom called him then I'm waiting for him to comeback where we met but it's been 14 years passed by and until now I can't find him.

I just realized that I still have the necklace he gave me which I'm 8 years old back then and I don't know if I have bring it with me because I know that I keep on a box. Maybe I should wear it for the meantime and I might meet him again

I'm about to stand up but I can't feel my body today because of what happened and I slipped off, cleaning up all the trash on the storage room because there are lot box and costumes that have been used by the students.

I didn't realize I fell asleep while cleaning then when I woke up I saw him laughing at me and I looked at the mirror wherein there is a drawing on my face then that jerk is messing with me while I fell asleep.

I can still imagine I had dream of that crazy stalker which made my life traumatic and I'm having a nightmare lately.

That day caused as so much which made us more look pathetic. It was their fault and they started it all. We were silent since they pull that prank and then they had a plan all those things like pouring water, pies, gifts that would almost make michelle and lovely almost faint and cry then the flour that was poured on us

Some of our classmates even laughed at us, while others helped us stand up and gave us a tissue to wipe.

So there it is, we also did something they didn't like so the vice president caught eight of us and we have no choice but to follow him to the office.

The eight of us were angry and scolded us before talking to our parents but we just begged him to do something different for us and he told us to clean the library, studio, campus, swimming pool and storage room.

We don't have any choice but to do the punishment given to us. It's better to do that than being scolded by our parents because this is my first time I get a warning and punishment when I don't want to be in a detention for my entire life that my parents would be disappointed and I really hate that jerk.

Why did we even choose this school? We didn't even know students here are weird and I didn't know there are bullies here

"Jamie, you're already awake. Are you alright?" it's alexis and I thought it was someone else

"I think so" I said

"Thank God, I thought something really bad happened to you already" I can see she didn't get any sleep at all. What time is it now?

"I'm thankful whoever saves you because we just find out that Mr. Brown is carrying you but we don't know who really save you from the storage room because Mr. Brown didn't know either"

"Ah I see"

"Tell me, what happened?" she asked

Should I tell her? But I don't want them to feel worry until now

Then someone knocked at my door "Can I come in?"

"Ah yes, come in now" I said because I'm trying to relax for a bit or else I can't go to school. Why does she have so many patches on her body? Is that salompas?

"Are you alright jamie? You didn't eat for almost a day and you just sleep for one day. What happened to you that day on the storage room when you got locked up? Did he pull a prank at you?"

What is she talking about? That made me confused. What does she mean by sleeping all day?

"Don't you remember? Mr. Brown told us you collapsed all of a sudden and we don't know who saved you because he don't know either because he can't see the face of the guy that save you on the storage room" I knew it, it's a guy but I don't know either because I didn't see his face clearly and I know I passed out or collapsed

"Grandma ami is really worried about you"

"We didn't go to school yesterday because you're not waking up so thought we should take care of you instead leaving you all alone with grandma ami. She is actually waiting for you downstairs now

"But grandma ami, just told us to go and she can take care of you. We did what she said and after class we went back home early than we expected" lovely said

"Now tell us, did that mico do something to you again?"

I didn't answered her "Okay, I just remember that someone save me when I got locked up at the storage room which made me scared at all because that almost gave me an heart attack" that's all I can say to them

"Okay, at least you're fine now" lovely said

"But I heard his voice and calling me. The problem is that I can't see his face and I feel he is worried that sound of his voice"

"You're lucky enough if you saw his face" lovely said

"Whatever it is, at least you're fine now. Don't ever collapse like that okay" alexis said

"Just don't mind him. I'm just annoyed yesterday because of what they did! That jerk is really keep bothering and I'm really going to him a lesson if I get my revenge on him" well lovely is back to what she been up to and feel annoyed

"I don't know because I was looking for him yesterday when he make a fun of me but I can't seem to find him when the storage room got locked and the lights went off"

"Then how did you collapse?"

"Lovely, is that even serious? What kind of question is that?" alexis said aggressively but lovely didn't mind her

"Think about it"

"I don't know" I lied

"Have you forgotten? That jamie is scared of being alone in dark when a stalker followed her and it was that Carl Sullivan. The guy who is a baseball player and crazy stalker and he think that jamie likes him when he just thought all by himself"

"I still remember that, it happened 4 years ago until now it creeps me out because the way I just hear his name makes me want to put him in the bars and never let him out for the rest of his life"

"At least, someone help jamie and I can still remember what she look like. I think her name is mei...mei..mei... anyway, that day made jamie feel scared going alone and she has trauma for almost 4 years"

"Does it still haunt you down jamie?"

"Ah not really" I lied and I don't want to remember it.

"Anyway, Breakfast is ready" alexis said and I used to michelle saying that then I don't see her right now

"Where is michelle?" I asked

"Ah michelle is in the dining room talking to grandma ami since they wake up early than I expected"

"Is she alright now and also lovely? How about you alexis?"

"A day passed by and I think I'm fine now, just not in the mood because of that day but I'm fine now. About them, ah yes michelle is fine, but last time lovely is so scared because I hear her crying at that night telling me she dream about clown which cause her awaken all the time then I sleep at her room so that she could go back to sleep which I sing her a lullaby then about michelle she seems to be quiet because on what happened on that day and she seem also to be scared" alexis said which she know everything

"I think they really want to kick us out but they can't do it even they pissed us off. How could they could they do those things and made us look pathetic? I just hate and I don't want to cross on their way ever again" alexis added and I don't think they're going to stop until they get what they wanted to kicked us out like nothing happened and they just think about their selves.

How could other students love them even they're bully? We all know they're handsome but it's that all they have? When they always bully those transferee students coming to Stanford high academy

"By the way, can you walk? At least you didn't get hurt that much when you slipped off then students told us that someone carried you going to the clinic. Then we asked the students if they saw the guy but they don't either but they hear that the guy seem to be worried about you" she said

"Can you move jamie? Let's go eat breakfast now. I'll go downstairs" alexis said and I try to stand up

"Do you want me to put a salompas too like what I did to myself?" pointed to her body full of patches especially her shoulder. I just nodded at her and she went to her room to get some

I need to find that necklace then I start try to look for it if I ever did bring the box with me especially the necklace is there. I looked into my things in my suitcase if the box is there, there are still a lot things on my cabinet because until now I haven't arranged my clothes and I haven't put them in my closet, then my old clothes when I was a child are also here.

Grandma ami didn't even touch them and gave it to those in need, I can't even wear it anymore because there are too small for to fit those clothes. Maybe the necklace he gave me is in my bag. Why is my bag full of papers and food and then liptint and powder? I threw the bag on the bed and suddenly something fell on the floor.

Oh it's a necklace too but I don't know if this is what he gave me because it's gold which same with this necklace because I wear different necklace and I picked it up on the floor.

"You're here" I said and stand up

"I forgot to te....."

"What are you doing there? And why is your closet too messy? Did you look for something?" alexis asked then I show her the necklace I'm holding right now

"Isn't that the necklace you told me given by your first love, the one who save when you almost died because you can't swim?" that surprise me and she still remember everything I said to her

"Ah yes, how could you still remember it?"

"Have you met him again? Or maybe, have you recognize him or know his name?" Well the thing is, I don't know his name but this necklace will help me meet him again which I wish so

"Let me put the salom...."

"Omg what just happened here?"

"Ah nothing, I'm just looking for something"

"Oh I see, let me put the salompas so that it will ease the pain now" she said and put them on my back since it ache the most

"Well the door is opened so I might as well just go inside your room because michelle is asking for you two" alexis said

"Girls, come down stairs now" michelle call us

"Omg, what is that thing you're holding?" she said and approach me which she look at the necklace

"Can I have it?" she's trying to be cute to me "No"

"Why? You have a lot a necklace" excuse me? Look who's talking?

"Lovely, did you forget? That necklace is given from the boy who saves her when she almost died" alexis explained it to lovely so that she would understand

"Oh I'm so sorry jamie" she apologize which I just smile so that this situation won't become awkward

"I'm done jamie, let's go it breakfast now" we went downstairs and straight to the dining room which is grandma ami is talking to michelle while she is laughing and smiling

"Oh come on, grandma ami. I know we're still young and it's not time for us to have boyfriends since we still want to focus on our studies and career"

"You really know a lot of things michelle"

"I learn from the best grandma ami" then grandma ami laugh and clap at her which they seem to be close now that I'm happy with it

"You're here, are you alright?" grandma ami asked and approached me then hugged me all of a sudden

"I'm sorry for making you worry grandma"

"No it's fine dear, I'm thankful for the young man" grandma ami said

Young man?

"Did you saw his face grandma?"

"Yes but I don't know his name and I can see he feel worried about you. He carried you all the way up to your bedroom and take care of you then after that he left immediately without having dinner"

I thought Mr. Brown the one who carried me because that's what alexis and lovely said to me

"Grandma ami, is that the time when we went home immediately?"

"Ah yes, and the young man left after the three of you got home because you were looking for jamie"

"I thought it was Mr. Brown when he told us when we arrived" lovely said

"Mr. Brown" alexis called him

"Sorry ladies, he just want me to tell about it because he don't want to tell his name" then Mr. Brown apologized to the three

"Come on, Mr. Brown" alexis and lovely said

"Anyway, whoever that young man we must be thankful because he saved jamie" michelle added

"Okay, let's eat dear" grandma ami said

"Did your mom give that necklace to you? The one you're holding" grandma asked me

"No grandma, someone gave it to me but I didn't get to meet that person again until now" I said

"Oh really, is that so? Come here jamie"

We sat down and I sat next to grandma ami. She has already prepared the one I want to eat so I really love her because she takes care of me since we got here and never left the kitchen to cook for our favorite foods then michelle help her. Actually, all of us know how to cook but michelle to cook for us so we can't complaint with that.

But why do I feel like mico is the one who saved me in the storage room?

*******************

Charles POV

I don't know what problem does james have and he suddenly got mad at me that I didn't do anything if I didn't just ask him why he was so wet the other day.

He didn't even show up and we only find out from his cousin that he suddenly walked out of his office not knowing where he went.

He looked very serious when he came home but now he just kept quiet. Sometimes I really don't understand james because he tends to be so chaotic.

Another one is mico, who was also quiet since yesterday and didn't know what he was thinking.

Guess what? he didn't even told us that his cousin was here but that the case she went back immediately because she has a photo shoot and we didn't know she is also famous here in the Philippines.

"We been waiting for you on the bar, but why didn't you arrive?" benjamin asked that made me think also

"Dude, where were you that night when your cousin trying to call multiple times? That is why we went back to school yet it is still open then the guard gave us an hour to look for you since its urgent" benjamin added

"When we went back home, you weren't there. We trying to call you but your phone is off. We were looking for you all over that night. Even in school, storage room where you were left cleaning with jamie but we can't seem to find the both of you then we saw a phone on the floor. When we try to open it, I thought it was yours but it isn't, it was that jamie's phone" I said

That rude alexis been calling me thief yesterday when she don't know the whole story what really happen. She should be at least thankful that I saw the phone of her friend instead someone else but she just call me a thief.

I don't know what's got into her when I'm the one who help her when her ankle got swollen then she just slapped because I move closely to her like as if I kiss her then she's calling me a thief again when I'm the one who keep the phone whole night just to returned it to that jamie

"You thief! First time we met, you are stealing my book and now you're going to steal the phone of jamie!" no matter how much I explained it to her she won't barge on listening then she keeps calling me a thief

"Mico, tell us what happen that night? Then you went back home late" benjamin said

Mico isn't paying attention since yesterday which we don't know what happened to him and yesterday I just notice he keep staring at the chair of jamie. Did something happen to the both of them? Or maybe he pulled a prank which made a mistake at all

"Dude, are you even listening?"

"Benjamin, I think he is busy doing something" I said

"He's been quiet since that night, I wonder if something bothering him or maybe that jamie did something that make him quiet" benjamin said

"We don't know either, look at james" then I point at james

"Dude, you're just ignoring us. Is there something wrong? We were looking for that day, where were you? You didn't even answer your phone call. We saw that michelle and she is wearing your shirt, panjama and slipper. Did you push her to the pool?" benjamin said while we are pulling our last revenge to those four girls who embarrassed us yesterday

James didn't bothering answering and just keeps doing the things around the room. I think we should be asking his cousin about what happened to the both of them in the office when we left

Let see now if you can still laugh alexis. How could she put a paper on my back and it was written "I am thief and good for nothing" that is why she hugged all of a sudden then the other students saying that we look good together when I just figured out that she put something when I didn't notice it at all. Then the students keep whispering something and I just covered my face because it's embarrassing

"Everything is good here" james said and now he is finally talking. I thought he went to deaf but not

"Benjamin, text that girl who always wear dress and I don't know how you get her number but it doesn't matter at all" mico said and that's amazing. Is benjamin a hacker?

"Coming right up" benjamin just follow what mico said and he did text it right away

"Let's go now dude, or else someone will find us if we stay longer" I said because Mr. Lopez might caught us again but this time will try to be careful.

"Benjamin, do you still have the video when we trick to do those hilarious dance in the office?" mico asked

"Yup, I still have them on my phone and don't worry about it" benjamin said while smiling because I think he's going to do something to blackmail those girls

"We should stay in the office of the principal because I have a conference today" mico said and get his things then went out of the room

While james is busy browsing on his phone "What the hell is this?" then he show us something

"Who the hell post that photo and video of us?" benjamin got bit pissed off

"It's a dummy account but this photo of us wearing dress is not acceptable. There are a lot of comment right now on this post saying that we're gay and how could we wear such clothes like that" james said frustrated

"I think they're cute"

"Isn't they're the handsome boys?"

"Are they gay?"

"I think it suits them well"

"Omg, my crush is a gay! I hate it!"

"The pretty boys of Stanford High Academy"

"How could they wear that? What a disgrace"

"Aren't they ashamed of themselves?"

"Haters going to hate and I still love them no matter what they wear"

"These comments are really giving me a headache" james said

"Find out whoever posts these photos" mico said and I thought he went out the room already

These students are no good to something. They just post anything they want in social media especially the website of the school its bombarded of comments because of our photos that makes us look hilarious and now they're trying to mess with us as they know something happening to us. That is why I hate using any kind of platform or social media because you don't have any privacy. Like what happened on the idol due to many reporters, paparazzi and malicious rumors that ruin their image. But the excitement later will be much more interesting and let the fun begin

*****************

Lovely POV

I'm in a middle of conference right now, and I'm almost done with it even we're heading at school. My cousin ask me to take part of the conference well I can't even reject him because he told that he is going to buy me a dress but I said to him I'll do it without any return but he still insisted but I told him that he just give me a material for my drawing then he said yes. I'm almost on my conclusion and done with it.

"Ms. Chua, how do we know that everything happen for a reason?" donny asked me and I think he is the assistant of my cousin Darwin

"As you can see donny, everything you do happen for a reason. Let me ask you, why do you need to go to school everyday? Why do always complaint in your life when you already have everything?"

"Well Ms. Chua, it is because I want to graduate to achieve my goal and become an author someday. The reason why I complain in my life, it is because of not having what I really wanted"

"Then, what do you want in life?"

"Happiness"

"Happiness? Is there any reason why you want to be happy?"

"I don't know but I want to feel how to be happy at least once in my life"

"Then do it, no one will stop you. Like I said donny, everything you do happen for a reason. Either you take the risk or blame yourself for not fulfill what you really want in life"

"Wow, you're right Ms. Chua" he seem to be satisfied on what I said

"In this life, everything we know has its reason to be found out by our own intention in mind that cause as so much whether we should believe it or not because we end up finding what is the lie and the truth of all the things we see beyond. Now and then, everything can be taken away from you, if you choose to hide out from the fear."

"Lovely seems to be serious with her conference today" alexis teased me

"I'm Kathryn and I have a question Ms. Chua, have you gained something in life? Or achieved your goals?" Kathryn seems to be focus on asking this kind of question

"The popularity that we cannot gain so much from it, this will eventually end when we get older, being rich can never something we can be proud of our entire life. Do you think that money can buy happiness, joy, love and long life? When you don't even know when money will last and as you grow old you can never enjoy the things you want to do when you're still young.Why do we always regret a lot of things when we grow old? But when we were still young, we can't understand how to accept those small things happening in our life."

"How will you know if you're enjoying the things when you're still young?" she added a question but this time I'll let michelle answer it for her

"I let my friend her to answer your question kathryn" I said and gave the tablet to michelle

"I'm Michelle Swift, former student in music academy and I'm studying right now in Stanford high academy. You find it weird why the name of the school is still sound like highschool but don't worry we're now in college and last year to take it up until we graduate" michelle explained

Michelle is really good at this kind of conference

"Are you always part of the Music Queen Band?"

"Yes I am" then she smiled

The students chuckles and seems to be happy to see michelle since they figured out she is also member of a music queen band

"Before I answer your question Ms.?"

"Kathryn, Ms. Swift and I'm glad to meet you"

"Me too"

"Are you happy?" michelle asked. It's just a simple question but has a lot of reason to answer it

"Yes I am" Kathryn answered which she seem to be pressured by the question of michelle

"In what way does it make you happy?"

"Ms. Swift, It makes me happy....uhm..in a way of....how can I say it?"

"Kathryn you need to be pressured on my question. Let me rephrase that for you and I think you would be able to answer it. So I hope no one laughs at her okay"

She really know how to put the atmosphere in good way

"Are you happy right now?"

"Yes I am"

"See you already answer without feeling pressure. Remember small things can make happen even without receiving something you're expecting at"

"Ms. Swift and Ms. Chua is really great speaker" she compliment us and made me happy

"They always say that until you're young always enjoy life even there are a lot of challenges that we need to surpass even its hard to face it but we need to accept it. Why do we regret it so much when we lose someone we loved? When we were with them, we only focus on the things that make us happy than staying by their side when they needed us the most. There are some situations that we can't understand at all and end up blaming ourselves for putting a lot of scars that we so much believe on what we see than knowing the truth behind it." michelle said and handed me the tablet back

"Remember, never let your life ruin with full of expectation and always decide what makes you happy because small things can bring happiness than anything else. That ends of my lecture and I hope everyone learn from it" Then I heard everyone clapping

"Thank you so much my beautiful cousin. I'll see you soon lovely" Darwin said and bid a goodbye then he ended the video call

"Jamie, are you alright?"

"Ah yes, I'm fine don't worry. I'm good now. Anyway, where did you find my phone? Because I remember I left it at the storage room" she said

"Actually, someone returned it to me which make me pissed off" alexis seem to be triggered. Who wouldn't have thought she is blaming charles that he stole it when we don't even know the whole story

"Like who?"

"Jamie, are you hungry?" alexis asked and she trying to change the subject here

I hope this day would get any better like I'm too lazy to go to school and attend class. Don't they have any music subject so that I could have interest going to this academy. I mean I prefer singing than listening to the lecture of a professor that's kind of boring for me.

Who wouldn't have thought attending class, sitting all around just to listen then a professor would ask you about the topic if you understand it at all? Do you also have a professor that pressured you with tons of school work and they won't appreciate your effort at all? That is why I have my reason that I don't want to attend school but a second of thought I want to graduate and pursue my career without making mistakes this time. I don't want to be called spoiled brat just because of what I'm not capable at.

Anyway, I'll just browse on my phone I might find some interesting post in facebook or twitter.

"We're here" Mr. Brown said and opened the door for us

"Thank you Mr. Brown. I'll send you a message to fetch us later" jamie said

"Please tell me ahead if something happen to you again" Mr. Brown seems to be worried about jamie

"No it's fine now Mr. Brown. I have them with me and I'll be careful" jamie said and Mr. Brown left

Omg, what did I just saw here? Someone posted on the website of Stanford high academy. The four wearing my dress and isn't that funny at all? Seeing them getting embarrassed while a lot of students looking at it. I don't know whether I laughed or feel pity because there are a lot of comments like 10k. I'll just read it later

Then I saw a message and check it

From: +639095678901

"You have a meeting later at 5pm. The four of you are invited to a welcome party for being accepted to our club. You have received a free food and meet us at the room 305 in the ad hall building. We will wait for you there"

That's kind of weird, having a free food but it's a welcome party for us four so we would be glad to accept it. Why do I feel like this party is going to be chaos? Or something is going to happen? Anyway, I didn't even dress up for the welcome party. I only wear jeans and sleeveless with denim jacket. At least those four boys are not around to messed up our day. Finally, a peace of mind

"Isn't that girls on this video?"

"What a hilarious dance"

"They look pathetic on this dance"

"I find them cute for me"

"Chicken dance"

"Frog Dance"

"Alien Dance"

"I never thought that these four girls get easily fooled"

"They're really cute at dancing this hilarious dance"

"Lovely make it fast before we get late in class" alexis said and I notice that the students keep staring at us which make it more weird and awkward to walk around the campus

Alexis is always in a hurry as if she has a business trip or something to do. Are you okay girl? It's good thing that I'm only wearing shoes now if I haven't I probably have thrown my heels from you.
