CALESIE'S POINT OF VIEW (POV)
What a weird little girl, she just said that I am going to cry a lot because I am going to lose someone that I love, What does she mean?
Maybe she likes to scare people
"Bessy, why are you late? And are you okay? you look like your in pain back at the cafeteria an hour ago,"
I was sweeping on the floor when Hailey asked that, She was only waiting for me because she's not allowed to help me,
"I'm fine now and...."
It turns out that even though I ran as fast as I could like I was competing for the track n' field I was still late
The Professor's punishment was assigning me to clean the whole classroom without anyone's help, Well it's not like anyone is willing to help me anyway,
"I bump into someone, she was holding a lot of books so it scattered on the floor, I helped her since it's my fault that's why I'm late" I explained then continued sweeping on the floor,
"I wanted to help you but if I do Professor Artner will scold me,"
"It's fine, I can do this alone, You can go back to the apartment without me, this'll take long,"
"Nope, I still can't go back to the apartment,"
"Why?"
"Well I still have to meet someone," Hailey said blushing
"Who?" I curiously asked
"You know, My partner in life, I mean my partner for the school's project,"
"Aaahhhh....You mean Aldrin?" I asked teasing her
"Yes, He said to meet me at the University's garden later,"
"What?! At the garden?"
"Yes, Why?"
"Uhhh.....Nothing, What a romantic place to do a project, Hehe,"
Deyro and I are also going to meet later in the garden, What am I gonna do? Should I tell her?
"So what time are you guys going to meet?" I asked
"Well he said to meet me at 4:00 later" Hailey answered while looking at her watch
"WHAT?!! I mean what? That's so great because you will have plenty of time together, HEHE"
"Bessy what about you? Did Deyro and you talked about the project already? You know that the deadline is two days from now right? " Hailey asked while looking at her phone,
"Well yeah, About that...."
"hmmm?"
"Well... the truth is I am also going to meet him later at the garden,"
"What!!!? Then that's great, The four of us can work together for our project" Hailey suggested,
"Yeah, We can," I said and then continued sweeping up the floor
Why am I even nervous? well, it's because I thought she is going to be mad at me since it will be there moment together,
After a couple of minutes, I finally finished cleaning up our classroom, Finally! I'm tired though! the classroom is big
"Bessy Let's go," Hailey said while she's still looking at her cellphone near the classroom's door,
We were about to leave when a little girl holding a bunch of books entered our classroom,
Wait, I know her!
she was the girl who said that I am going to cry a lot because I am going to lose someone that I love, I don't know what she meant by that, but it still bothered me,
"Hi, My name is Calixta Fanthon do you happen to know Miss Calesie Rae and Hailey Smith?" The way she asked that question, She has no expression, No emotions, She's empty, Even the way she looked at us is empty,
"That's us, What can we do for you?" I asked
"Mrs. Anderson ordered me to search for the two of you because she said that you have the key for room 50" She explained still with no expression,
"Yes we do have the key, But why are you..... Wait, Don't tell me! you're our new roommate?" Hailey excitedly asked,
I was only looking at her because...
"Yes, I am, "
She looks scared
"Wait, You said your name is Calixta Fanthon?" Hailey asked
"Yes, that's my name why?"
She's dark
"You're a Fanthon? The Fanthon? You're the daughter of Mr. Georgio Fanthon the founder of the FT ENTERTAINMENT who's also a dean at the FT University?" Hailey asked catching her breath
"Yes, why?"
She looks like she feels nothing
"Wow, We have a rich roommate here Calesie, but Wait, if you're a Fanthon, Why are you here at the MS University? Meusons are the Fanthon's rival right?" Hailey said,
What? Meuson's have rivals? I didn't know that
"Yeah, But I don't care can you give me the keys please, I want to rest because I have class tomorrow at 10:00," Calixta said, She is so cold,
"Wait, 10:00? What grade are you?" I asked
"I am grade 7, The 10:00 class is for Grade 7 students,"
"You're a Grade 7 student?"
"Yes I am, so can you now give me the key, I am too tired to talk,"
So cold...
"Yeah, Sure..." I said while getting the key in my bag, "Here it is, But do you know where our apartment is?" I asked but she didn't even bother answering my question, she just turned her back at us and left the classroom,
Is she going to be fine?
"Do you think she knows where our apartment is?" I worriedly asked
"Well, she knows the number of our apartment and by the looks of it she's a smart girl, I think she can manage, Let's go it's almost 4:00,"
Hailey and I walk going towards the garden to meet up with Aldrin and Deyro when suddenly Hailey stopped walking,
"Bessy I just realized now, if we are all going to meet at the garden and we are both here then does it mean Deyro and Aldrin are there together?" Hailey asked,
"Well yes why?"
"Is it okay for them to be alone together? I mean there not close right?"
"Well, I see no problem with that,"
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah, well, It's not like both of them are going to fight with each other just because they are not close..."
"Yeah, You're right, I was worried for nothing,"
We continued to walk and after minutes we arrived at the garden
"Look Bessy," Hailey said, What happened to them? they're just staring at each other,
"Aldrin I'm here" Hailey shouted trying to get Aldrin's attention but they didn't even look at us, they were just staring at each other,
Hailey and I looked at each other like our eyes were both asking the question what's happening to them, We went near to them to find out what's happening since they are acting weird
"Hello?? Is someone there?!" Hailey asked while waving in front of Aldrin's face,
"You blink!!!" Deyro shouted that shocked me!
"No bro I saw you, You blinked first," Aldrin denied
"What's happening?" I asked
"We were having a contest," Deyro explained
"What contest?"
"Staring contest" I looked at Aldrin because of what he said, Starting contest? Really?
"Uhmmmm.....Why?" I asked
"Well Aldrin here, wants to know something but I don't want to tell him, then suddenly he wants to have a contest so that if I lost I will tell him but sadly he lost because he blinked first" Deyro explained, Are they a 5-year-old kid or something?
"I did not, You blinked first,"
"No, you did,"
from the looks of it, they are like kids fighting over for some candies
"Then how about a rematch," Aldrin suggested, What? But we came here for our project,
"OOHHHH I WANNA TRY!!, I WANNA TRY!!!" Hailey said looking so excited to join
"How about you Calesie want to join?" Aldrin asked smiling,
"Well....we have to do our project first, so how about we get started and then have the contest after,"
"BOOOO!!! NO FUN!!!" they all shouted while their thumbs are down, Why am I with kids?
"Fine!! What's the rule of the game and what do we get if we win?"
"Yey!" Hailey excitedly said while both of her hands are clapping,
"The rules are simple, The one who blinks first loses and if you lose you are going to treat us all tomorrow to lunch" Aldrin explained,
"What?" I asked,
"Ohhhhh..." Hailey look so interested, I have no choice, I just have to win to save my wallet from being bankrupt,
"Who's going first?" I asked
"How about you and Deyro go first?" Hailey suggested
"Okay? Why not us two go first?" I asked Hailey was giving me a sign that she wanted to be partnered up with Aldrin
So I agreed
Deyro and I took the challenge first,
I sat on the bench with Deyro while we both are preparing our eyes for the challenge,
"1, 2, 3 GO!!" Hailey shouted and then the contest has begun, Deyro and I stared at each other hoping to win the challenge, I am going to win this thing, I don't have enough money,
Losing is not on my vocabulary by the way,
*ONE ETERNITY LATER*
"GO BESSY!!! SAVE YOUR MONEY!!! I saw Deyro eat once in a cafeteria by the way," Hailey said and then came close to my ears,
"He eats a lot," She whispered, now I'm scared,
I don't have to be scared
Because I am close to victory! I can see that Deyro's eyes are tearing up, Just blink already Deyro,
"I think I am going to win Deyro, " I said
"Oh yeah?"
"Too close Deyro," I was so shocked because he just suddenly because he brought his face closer to mine,
"You know what Calesie, " Deyro said
"What?" I asked, What is he trying to do? he was looking at me straight in the eyes and that is making me nervous,
"What is it?" I asked,
.

"YOU ARE REALLY BEAUTIFUL" HE SAID

BONUS STORY:
DEYRO'S POINT OF VIEW(POV)
I am now going towards the garden and it's almost 4:00, Calesie and I promised that we are going to meet in the garden at 4:00 so I was hoping that she is already there,
I arrived at the garden but.....
What us he doing here? I didn't expect that I am going to see a familiar guy's face, I looked at him closely to confirmed that it was him,
I was right he is the guy who fought with Joseph the other day, So he didn't get kicked out of the school, lucky for him then
"Hey!" I called, he looks at me while he is seated at the garden's bench
"What are you doing here?" I asked, He didn't even bother to answer my question and just continue what he's doing,
"You are Calesie's childhood friend right?" That question made him looked at me
"How did you know that?" He asked, Now he's interested,
"Calesie told me, am I not supposed to know that?"
"Wait, I know you," He said while standing up and looking at me, our height is almost the same except I think I am 1 cm taller than him
"I am right you are that guy with Calesie in the grocery stores at our village, You are also a student here? and Why did you give Calesie money that day?" He asked He was also there?
"Wanna know why?" I asked
" I am asking you, meaning I wanna know, right?" He said
"If you want to know best me first," I said
"Beat you to what?" He asked
"I don't know any game," I said
" Then how about staring contest," He said
"Really? That's all you can think of?" I said trying to tease him
"You said any game, Why are you scared that I am gonna beat you?" He said
"Of course not because I can win, any game," I said, and then the contest had
STARTED...
