"What are you two doing?"

Angelo paused and his eyes widened when he came back to his senses. He just tried to kiss a stranger?!

"Brany!" Harmony exclaimed when she turned to who spoke.

"I already told you to stop calling me that name" Brandon walked to them with his hands in his pocket. Harmony quickly rushed to his side.

"Brany! There's a snake! I'm scared of snakes!" Harmony held his arm.

Angelo couldn't help but frown when he saw the way Harmony was holding onto his arm.

Brandon looked at her then at Angelo who held a frown on his face. He smirked and walked in in silence, leaving the two of them there.

Harmony blinked and turned to Angelo who was still standing there, starring at her like a fool.

"Thanks for saving me from the snake!" Harmony smiled cutely before walking to the restroom.

Angelo stared at her till she was out of sight.

"What is wrong with me?" Angelo slapped himself.

"A snake? Well I'd have preferred to be chased by that than being chased by a lion" Angelo sighed, referring to Holly's mother.

When he thought about her, his eyes widened and he quickly rushed in the hall before Holly's mother find him.

He walked to his seat and some students couldn't help but murmur within them as they watch the trending video of Angelo being chased.

Winter watched the video too and hissed loudly.

"Not only is he a dullard but he's a jerk.. Gosh, I hate him! Thank God my Brandon isn't that way" She said and looked at Brandon.

Brandon who was discussing with Dennis suddenly looked her way and she winked. He immediately frowned and gave her his middle finger before looking away.

Winter rolled her eyes.

Not long after Harmony walked in and went to sit beside Barbie. Winter's eyes widened.

"We're course mates! That b*tch!" Winter gritted her teeth

<THE WATKINS>

Juliet could be seen rolling from one side of her small bed to the other. The annoying sound of her ringtone began ringing again and she let out a groan

This is the fifth time the caller is calling.

She grudgingly stretched her hand and took her phone then picked.

"Who's this?" Juliet muttered, rubbing her throbbing head as she sat up.

"Man p**sy?" Romeo's voice sounded and a frown settled on her face.

How did he get her number?

"What do you want? How do you get my number?" She said.

"Well I have my ways... Come over to my office after two hours, I have a proposal to make you. It involves money" Romeo said and hung up.

Juliet looked at the phone and raised her brows.

"Proposal?" She muttered and scoffed.

She laid back down to sleep but when the sound of 'money' rang again in her head, she immediately sat back up.

"What if he's serious?"

❆•❆•❆•❆

<TWO HOURS LATER>

"Friday will be our matriculation day... Which color are we going to rock.. Black, red or white?" Chance asked as they walked out of their lecture hall.

The first lecture just finished..

"I personally prefer white" Evan said.

"Yeah so white is it!" Chance smiled.

They both turned to Angelo who's eyes we're glued to his phone's screen.

"Gelo, you've been quiet for awhile... Is it Holly's mom that traumatized you?" Chance smirked and Evan chuckled.

"Tell me, who's this girl on video? What's her name?" Angelo showed them a video of Harmony when she was whipping Winter.

"I think her name is Harmony. Rumors has it that she's the adopted daughter of the McGwire" Evan replied.

"Why ask?" Chance asked.

"Nothing.." Angelo muttered and dipped back his phone in his pocket.

"Whatever that happened when you saw her earlier was just a normal reaction. She was cute and it was normal that I felt the urge to kiss her. Beside she's way to lean for type" Angelo convinced himself and nodded in affirmation.

••••

"I'm starving! I can literally finish a whole chicken by myself! Let's go to the cafeteria!" Barbie said to Harmony.

They were still walking when Winter and the others blocked their way. Barbie rolled her arms and folded her fists.

Winter suddenly dropped her bag on the floor..

"Pick it" She said to Harmony.

"Huh?" Harmony blinked.

"Are you deaf? She told you to pick it!" Cassidy said.

👥 What is happening?

👥 Does Winter want to take revenge?

"You-"

"No" Harmony cut off Barbie.

"What did you say?" Winter said, walking closer.

"I said no... The Bible said that heaven help those who help themselves. You're not blind, nor handicapped, nor do you have brain deficiency so you can pick it" Harmony smiled innocently.

Winter's eyes widened..

"I was going to give you an ugly look but I see you already have one.. So go on, pick it.. Oh and while you're at it, pick the remaining brain you have left" Barbie said, hanging her hands round Harmony's shoulder.

Winter was already fuming in rage.

"You useless thing!" Winter barked and slapped Barbie but Barbie wasted no time in slapping her back.

Winter staggered back as her hair scattered on her face. She looked up with furious eyes and made to launch at them when someone caught her wrist.

"Enough of this!" A guy said, coming in the scene.

👥 Who's this guy?

👥 I think he came for the scholarship exam

👥 Isn't he a bit short for a guy

👥 He's so cute! I think I'm crushing!

"Who the f*ck do you think you are!" Winter jerked his hand off and glared at him.

She looked at Barbie and Harmony before storming away in anger. Cassidy and Kelly went after her.

"Are you guys okay?" He turned to them.

"We are... Though I could handle her alone but thanks for your help. You don't look like you're in this school, are you new?" Barbie asked.

"Well kinda.. I'm here for scholarship." He smiled.

"That's cool and due to matriculation results will be out tomorrow, I hope you pass! What's your name by the way" Harmony asked.

"I'm Jordan"

"That's cool. I'm Barbie and here's Harmony, she's probably the cutest girl in our college so don't crush okay?" Barbie winked

Jordan just smiled and made to talk when he saw Brandon coming out of their hall while flirting with a girl. His eyes widened immediately.

"Uhh.. I,, I'll see you guys one of these days!" Jordan muttered and ran off immediately

"What's up with him?" Barbie wondered but just shrugged.

<ROM. CORPORATION>

Juliet hissed for the uptenth time as she walked to Romeo's office with her hands in her pocket.

Just the thought of seeing his annoying face just gets her angry.

"But why did he call me again? Thought he fired me back then" Juliet wondered

She got to his office and didn't even bother to knock before going in. She got in to meet a lady, a very beautiful lady sitting in front of him

From the looks of things they were discussing.

"Man p**sy" Romeo smirked.

"She's the b*tch that gave you all these bruises?" The lady (Rosalie) asked and Romeo nodded.

Rosalie immediately stood and without wasting time she slapped Juliet.

"How dare you do that to my best friend! Do you know that just his finger nail can buy you twice?! Are your crazy!! How-"

Juliet gave her a back kick and she crashed on one side of the office, passing out.

"That's my best friend you just knocked down" Romeo said.

"I'm in a bad mood.. Start spilling the beans" Juliet dipped her hands in her pocket

"You're hired" Romeo smirked.

"Meaning?" Juliet raised a brow

"You're hired.. I want you to become my personal bodyguard but adding to that you'll have to pick up my son from school everyday" Romeo said.

"How much are talking about here" Juliet muttered.

"I'll increase the amount I was to pay you before by... 5000" Romeo said.

Juliet smirked..

"You could have started it this way... Pleasure doing business with you__ sir" She muttered and stretched her hand then Romeo took her hand.

"You'll regret humiliating me that way" Romeo thought inwardly with a smile on his lips.

<CAFETERIA>

Brandon and Dennis were seated with a girl sitting on Brandon's thigh, caressing his chest.

"Now I see the old Brandon is back. Did the holy Spirit leave your body?" Dennis smirked and Brandon just rolled his eyes.

Soon after, Angelo and Chance walked in while discussing. He glanced at Harmony but quickly looked away

"I think Angelo has a soft spot for that girl" Brandon said.

"Which girl?" Dennis asked, chewing on his food.

"That slim girl that beat Winter. I think her name is Harmony or something" Brandon said.

"Really? Then that's cool_ wait what are you thinking?" Dennis asked.

"It's simple, I'll date her. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth" Brandon smirked.

"Wait, don't tell me you're gonna-"

"Gotta go now bro... Duty is calling for me" Brandon smirked, squeezing the girl's àss.

He stood up with the girl and walked away. Dennis sighed loudly..

"Wish time could rewind itself. You and Angelo used to be inseparable" Dennis muttered.

"Where's my girl by the way?" Dennis wondered, looking around.

"Can I... Can I sit with you guys?" Tasha said.

"Oh sure" Harmony made space for her and she sat.

Tasha looked at Barbie who was literally devouring a full chicken on her own.

"Don't mind her, when she's hungry that's how it is" Harmony chuckled.

"You're so cute and pretty.. I'm Natasha and you" Tasha said.

"I'm Harmony and here's Barbara but just call her Barbie" Harmony said.

They were still talking when a guy walked to their table and placed a paper in front of Harmony. Harmony looked at him and he winked before leaving.

She opened the paper and it read:

_ MEET ME AT THE ROOFTOP, I HAVE SOMETHING TO TELL YOU_

Harmony sighed and tore the paper then threw it.

"That's the fourth one you'll be receiving and you just came yesterday yet you already have so many guys hitting on you. Aww my baby is becoming popular" Barbie gushed.

"It's not funny though" Harmony pouted.

"I wish I was in your shoes. Can you imagine, in my 19 years of existence no guy has ever crushed on me" Tasha pouted.

"Same shoes girl. Come let's cry together!" Barbie said and Tasha hugged Barbie then they began shedding real tears.

Harmony sighed and pinched her brows but she later smiled. It feels so good to finally have friends..

"Girls I need a job" Harmony suddenly said and they both turned to her.

"A job? But you're parents are super rich, they can get you anything you want." Barbie said.

"Yeah I know but... I really want to study music and I saw online that there's this company that takes in trainee but I have to register as a trainee. I don't really know how my parents will react if I tell them so please can you help me find a job?" She pouted, blinking cutely.

"Well,, okay. You're too perfect to do physical jobs so I'll look for an intellectual one. Oh while we're at it.. I know Angelo's mom and he asked me to help her look for a private tutor, you can tutor him right?" Barbie said.

"Who's Angelo?" Tasha and Harmony chorused.

"Oh my Gosh!! You don't know who Angelo is?! Don't you watch films! Starting from a young age he ventured into acting and he's very successful and popular in it! He's the heartthrob of our college. Angel face but a bad boy in disguise. He has two friends, Chance and Evan.. They're super popular too. Then there's Brandon, the school's hottie.. A bad boy on his own too. He has two friends and one is Dennis, the other one traveled... Brandon and Angelo were best friends till everything changed in our last year in high school" Barbie blabbered non stop.

"That's too much information" Tasha muttered.

"They don't call me the gossip queen for nothing" Barbie flaunted her hair proudly and the girls chuckled.

"Can you tell Angelo's mom that I'll take the job?" Harmony said and Barbie nodded with a smile.

<GAMBLING CLUB>

"And I win again!" A man exclaimed.

Marco (Kaylee's dad) threw down his cards in annoyance as the man bagged in the money.

He stood up and walked to the counter, ordering a glass of tequila. He dipped his hands in his pocket and out the remaining money he had.

"This won't even afford to buy me a pack of cigarettes" He muttered.

"Looks like you're broke" A man said beside her, smoking whole drinking gallantly.

"I have a proposal for you.. Wanna make money the easy way?" The man whispered.

Marco smiled the moment he heard "easy way". He turned to the man, paying his undivided attention to him.

The man brought out something wrapped from his trenchcoat before handing it to Marco.

He slowly opened it and his eyes bulged out in both shock and fear when he saw something very bloody...

It was a kidney.

<NIGHT, RODRIGUEZ MANSION≈7:30PM>

Angelo walked out of his bathroom with a towel wrapped round his waist. He put on his favorite music titled "Happy" on his MP3

The music slowly began entering his body and he began dancing to it

"Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof" He began singing while dancing in his towel.

••••

"Good morning ma'am" Harmony greeted as the maid led her in the living room.

"You're Harmony? Angelo's new tutor?" Melissa asked and Harmony nodded.

"Yes ma'am. From what I've heard we're in the same course so it'll be easy tutoring him" Harmony smiled.

"She's not too curvy so I guess it'll go. Angelo won't have ulterior intention against her" Melissa thought.

"Oh okay, that's great. Please follow me let me introduce him to you" Melissa said and Harmony nodded.

"I hope we finish earlier because my parents told me to be back by 9" Harmony said.

"Your parents must be really nice people" Melissa said and Harmony nodded.

They began approaching Angelo's room and music could be heard booming from it.

Melissa opened the door

"Angelo your new tutor-"

Harmony's eyes widened and Melissa's mouth dropped to the floor.

The music titled "Level up" was booming in the room and Angelo was busy twerking nakedly, his d*ck dancing to the beat too.

His small àss shaking much too..

Angelo turned to the door and he immediately froze. His back felt like icy water was poured on it as he gazed directly at Harmony who was looking at him with a stunned look on his face.

Upon all the girls that could see him, it had to be Harmony. At that moment, he wished the ground could swallow him up.

"My son is gày!!!!"
