THE FOLLOWING DAY≈TENTH GRADE>HIDDEN VILLE HIGH**
“I wonder why she isn’t picking up, doesn’t she get how worried i am?”she put her cellphone onto the table, and leaned back, resting her head on the seat.
Everything that’s happening is all “her“ fault, she shouldn’t have left like that last night.
Her frustration forced action of some sort, so she picked up the phone, and dialed her, but it went straight to voicemail.
The air was chilly, especially once the sun went down.
Through the partially opened windows, she could hear the occasional fragment of conversation, as lecturers and students walked by.
There were just a few “students“ in the classroom, cause she’d arrived earlier than expected, 6am sharp!.
She slid a bit down to her spine, her sock feet on the table, while she went through her “history“ text book.
She’d just reached page two(of a total of hundred), when she heard the sounds of approaching footsteps.
When she turned, her breathing went back to normal, and she eased a sigh of relief.
“Where have you been?, i’ve been worried sick about you!”she dipped her hand into her backpack, and took out her cellphone, deliberately ignoring gracious.
Gracious gave a frown, and scratched her head thoughtfully.
She shifted a bit, and stretched a hand to her shoulder, but-
“What the h*ll do you think you’re doing?, please keep your “paws“ off me!”she rolled her eyes, and fixed her gaze back to her phone.
“Are you mad at me?, am-”
“You don’t need to apologise ok, am at fault for getting my “own“ hopes up. I thought i’d actually met someone i could call a “sister“, but i guess it was just my imaginations. You’re free to do whatsoever you like with your “boyfriend“, ok!”she dropped the last three words of her sentence to a grumble.
“FYI he’s not my boyfriend!!!, we’re just friends ok. Please forgive me, i acted “nonsensical“ last night!”her voice was soft, and measured like one who’s trying to overcome a stutter.
November took a deep breath, here came the tears, but she blinked them back.
How was she going to explain how she felt in,side without a “fr*aked“ out reaction from her, it’s painful!.
“I think i know what’ll cheer you up, this is my way of saying “am sorry“!”november glanced up, just as gracious took out two large plates loaded with freshly made sandwiches and fries.
That’s her favourite, she craves for it, all the time.
No, she isn’t going to give in so quickly, but hmm, the aroma is…
Gracious dipped her hands into her backpack, and brought out a huge bottle of “ketchup“!”november tried averting her gaze, but it was impossible.
She shifted a bit closer, and occupied herself with banging on the ketchup bottle, until a thick drool of red covered the southeast corner of her fries, gracious grinned.
Her plan worked, even though they’d only met for a short while, it feels like she’s known her her whole life.
She never jokes with her “belly“!.
November lifted the top of her kaiser roll, and salted everything in sight.
She inhaled a bit, by mistake, and sneezed…
“You sneeze like a squirrel”it wasn’t the words so much, as it was the sheer look of distain, and the disgust in amber’s voice.
November paused for a few seconds, and resumed her “mission“, turning a blind eye at amber’s remark.
Silence is the best answer to a f**l…
Hot Damn!, on the surface of her tongue, she made one of her “food“ mo*ns.
Being totally misheed, amber’s bl**d boiled, she can’t take this!.
She rose to her feet, placed a hand on her waist, maintaining a devi*ish smirk.
“You-“.
👥 They’re here, good morning oppa!
👥 Geez, you guys look s*xy this morning!
👥 Ji-ho!, ji-ho…
👥 Last night was spectacular, keep it up “muchachos“!
Girls cheeks turned tomatoes instantly, some even fainted as the “guys“ cologne invaded their nostrils.
👥 Oppa ji-yoo i love you!.
👥 I kept my vi*ginity for you ji-hu, let’s get to “business“ after school!
👥 No, he’s mine, not yours!.Right ji-hu?.
They walked to their various seats, “catwalking“ like “celebs“, the wind making their hair dance in rhythm, with their steps.
Amber’s frown got replaced with a smile, as she sighted ji-ho, she waved a hand in greeting.
He ignored her, her jaw went slack…
“Ouch!, does it hurt, lmao!.You’re like a light house in the middle of a desert, bright, but not a lot of use. Do you think he’d get back with a “pig“ like you?, was your pu**y itching so badly, that you couldn’t help but f**k his best friend!?”the whole class gasped.
Amber hid her face in her hands, her fingers fidgeting.
How could she do this to her, in front of the whole class, her “reputation“ is ruined.
No, she’s got to do something, and quick!.
She lifted her head, and balled her wrist tightly, before hitting november on the nose.
Bl**d gushed out immediately, she placed a hand to reduce the quantity that dripped to the ground!!.
“You we*ch, do you have a d*ath wish?”gracious hurriedly stood in the middle of them both, trying to prevent what’s surely due to happen.
“Don’t do this here, this is a classroom, not a wrestling “ring“.”amber scoffed, and pushed her, she almost fell but…
Perfect, his hand caught her in time, pressing her against his broad chest, the muscles solid beneath his shirt.
The touch of his hands so warm on her bare skin sent a burst of heat straight to her core, who could her “savior“ be.
She lifted her head up, and looked straight into the eyes of the humorous frame that caught her, huh?.
“Are you okay?”he detached his hands from her waist, she took a few steps back.
👥 Ewww!, why’s he touching a “nobody“!.
👥 Happy now?, he finally touched you!.
👥 How dare you touch ji-ho?, you’ve really signed up for your d*ath!.
👥 Gross!, yuck!!,she needs to be punished!…
Before she knew what was going on, mayo, syrup, and other sticky food items were sprayed on her hair.
“I’ll help with a bath, am sure you didn’t step into the shower this morning!”phoenix, amber, and a girl from their class, emptied their “water bottles“ on her.
November tried to stop them, but was held tightly, by a few of “ji-ho’s“ fans.
Gracious couldn’t take it anymore, she stormed out of the classroom, tears prickling her eyes.
“Why did you have to do that?,that wasn’t right yunno!”he went after her, amber frowned…

AT “A Splash Of Red“ Ltd**
“Martha why did you have to leave me with the responsibility of catering for two children?, i might d*e one day from an h*art atta¢k!”he reached for his mug, sliding it towards him, across the desk.
The smell of coffee permeated the air, he lifted the mug to his l-ips, and sipped a bit.
His office telephone chimed in the room, he dropped both the mug, and “photograph“ onto the table.
“What is it Lucy?”he rolled his eyes, impatiently waiting for a reply from her.
She’s always been so nark-ish…
But very useful, she does her work, professionally…
“Boss you’ve got visitors, they’re the cops, should i let them in?”there was a three second silence from his end, before he finally figured out what to say.
“Yeah, sure!”he hanged up.
Minutes later, he heard a knock at the door, no one needed to tell him, who it was.
“Come in!”he yelled, and the door was swung open, revealing lucy(his secretary), and two cops.
The word “LAPD“ was inscripted on their shirts, along with the wide matching pants.
“Thanks lucy, you may leave now!”she nodded in response, and walked out immediately, shutting the door behind her.
“Good afternoon Mr Watson, i’m Jeremy Taylor from the police department. You probably don’t recognize my voice, but i was the one you placed a call across to last night!. This is Dolan Heather, both of us were sent up here to share the information we have about your “missing“ daughter”!”dolan moved his jacket aside, to expose the badge attached to his belt, maxwell studied it.
He gestured to the empty seats before him, they sat comfortably, his gaze peering through them.
He seemed puzzled at the sight of them…
They made matters worse with the silence, like they were contemplating whether to tell him or not…
“According to the first officer that got to the scene, your daughter’s body had been placed into a sheet, rolled over the edge of an embankment, coming to rest about fifteen feet down, some fifty feet from the highway. Her face wasn’t clearly seen, cause it was destr*yed with “acid“. Even from the top of the slope, they could see numerous stab wounds in her chest, It was apparent her throat had been slashed.”maxwell’s eyes w¡dened, he placed a hand on his chest, trying so hærd to digest the “horrif¥ing“ news.
He took in his bottom lip…
“How are you so sure she’s the one?, it might be someone else!”it’s odd, really odd, who could have done that…
Jeremy cleared his throat…
“The description you gave us was useful, her clothing (a dark blue versace blouse, white cotton pants, with a print of dark blue daisies, a lot of red in each center!!), size and other stuff matched with that of the person. The investigation is on going, lest i forget, a fingerprint was found!”he jammed his hands into his pants, and brought out a piece of paper filled with “markings“.
“Who’s finger print was found, tell me!”he snatched the paper, and read through it, hurriedly.
“What?”
His eyes w¡dened…

100 L≈HIDDEN VILLE COLLEGE**
“I heard there’s going to be a competition this year, all students with talents (singing, dancing, acting, etc.), must sign in.”dawn stared at him with w¡dened eyes, hmm, when did ricardo become a gossip…
She pinched his chubby cheeks…
“Ow!, what was that for?”jung-hyun turned in their direction, and sighed sadly, wishing he’d lock eyes with her.
She’s currently going through her “principles of accounting“ textbook, cause they’d be having a short “exam“, after lunch break.
“No one knows about that, which means you listened in on adults conversations. That’s a crime yunno, according to my “rules“, you’re prohibited from doing so!”he bursted into laughter clutching his stomach, she joined in.
“When did you become a lieutenant?, gosh, in your wildest dreams. A scary fellow like you can’t be a mere “security“ guard, not to talk of a “cop“!”she frowned deeply, giving him the “i’ll k*ll you“ look.
“Of course i can, am not scared of anything!”he rubbed his temples lightly, eureka!, he smirked.
“A spider!”he exclaimed and dawn’s eyes w¡dened in horror.
Her nose twitched on hearing the word “spider“, and sprang off her seat immediately.
“Where?, where?, where is it?”she rasped, her eyes roaming around the room, interrupting everyone’s “reading“.
👥 Hey missy, aren’t you aware that it’s “prep“, sit your f**king a** down!.
👥 Drama queen, your dad’s rich, doesn’t mean you should act like a bimbo!.
👥 I need peace and quiet, please!!.
👥 Are you being serious right now?, what’s the “noise“ about?.
👥 Pf-fft-fft, show off!…
Their jaws were clenched, and eyebrows lowered and pulled closer together.
She took in her bottom lip, and spirit*ally smacked ricardo, he tricked her.
She bowed in gesture of an “apology“, then flickered her gaze to ricardo, he shook in his seat…
She’s so gonna punch his teeth out…
“Am sorry!”he muttered, it wasn’t supposed to go that far, a lecturer stepped in…
“Dawn Williams principals office, now!!”she rolled her eyes up to the right, and made wide hand movements, just as she’s about to pontificate.
Dawn cursed under breath, on her way out…
TBC
Gracious!… 🥺
