Chapter 2 - The coincidental Meeting.

It all begins with the reflection of Grayson Owen and Liam Mia in their second year in Revenue college.

Grayson Owen is a tall handsome guy, with long shining black hair. He is smart and very intelligent. Owen is the first son of the Grayson family, and he has a little sister, Ava, who is still in high school.

Ava is an average teen of 14 years of age, who is loved by everyone in the family. Owen's love for his little sister has no limit, that he can sacrifice anything just to be by her side whenever she needs him.

Being a cute guy, Owen is always the top topic of discussion among the ladies on campus. Not only is he handsome, but he is also a dancer. For this kind of popularity Owen possesses, ladies ain't ashamed to go meet him and ask him out.

But to everyone's greatest surprise, he never for once gave any of those ladies a chance. He always declines their offer every time they come for him. Owen has two close friends, Eliot and Mateo, who are in the same dancing group as him.

Anywhere Eliot and Mateo are being sighted, Owen would surely be around because they all usually move around together...

Mia, on the other hand, is a beautiful Canadian indigene. She was born and bred in Calgary city where she did her schooling. Mia lost her mum, Hannah, at the age of 12, which made her continue staying with her dad, alone.

Mia's love for acting has no bound. Her mum was her acting partner before she passed away. When Mia lost her mum, it took a huge turn of emotional affection on her. It felt as if, her whole world crumbled the day her mom died because they were more than super close.

Mia stays with her dad Mr. Liam, who has not much time for his daughter. But Mia been a determined lady already had a dream to actualize, and that's to be a Broadway actress. Ella is a very close friend of Mia since their childhood, and she has been a good friend till their college times.

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

It was lunch break time at the school cafeteria, where Mia and Ella were seated beside each other to have their meal. Three tables to where they are sitting, was where Owen and his friends were seated too.

After a few bites from the meal, Mia stood up to go get a drink from the cafeteria stand. As she was heading back to her seat with the juice in her right hand, Mia mistakenly hit her right leg on her left foot, and she tripped.

The drink she was holding onto eventually poured straight up on Owen's shirt, which made everyone exclaim in shock, and keep staring at them in awe.

"I'm sorry, it was unintentional..." Mia quickly apologize as she was still lying down on the floor behind Owen.

Without uttering a word, Owen stood up angrily. The whole students inside the cafeteria were already swanning in different thoughts knowing so well that, Owen won't take it lightly on her.

Mia was still lying helplessly on the floor before Ella quickly rushed down to help her up.

"Who the hell did this?" Owen said at the top of his voice and turned to check who was it. Everyone's eyes turned to stare at Mia, who's already up and standing close to Ella.

Owen angrily took a cup of drink from the table close to his right hand and poured it back on Mia. "This serves you right... Next time, you would be more careful!" Owen said with a glare and walked angrily out of the cafeteria.

Mia stood still in shock, as all eyes were still on her. She couldn't even utter a word back before Owen took his revenge by pouring a drink on her. Mia was so embarrassed and burning in anger.

When Ella caught the glimpse of Mia's angry face, she instantly walked her out to the washroom, to clean her up.

"Could this be happening to me now?" Mia whispered, while her head is been buried down between her chest.

"Just forget about it, you would be fine!" Ella consoled her while helping to clean Mia's shirt.

After Ella was done with the cleaning, they didn't talk much again. Mia bid farewell to her and heads home to save herself from the embarrassment...

*****

Next day!

What happened between Mia and Owen yesterday, became the hot talk on campus.

"Mia and Owen clash of war at the school cafeteria!!!" was what kept trending all over the air of discussion on campus.

All these made Mia more uncomfortable but she continue fighting it and didn't let it get to her that much. She kept doing her daily activities in the college and didn't bother paying attention to the rumors.

When the date for the school end-of-the-year audition was declared, this cleared the air of what happened between Mia and Owen. Now, all that students are talking about is the upcoming end of the year audition.

The flyer that was been posted all over the campus, reflected Mia and Owen's names on it.

Mia would be performing a stage play alongside her acting crew, whilst, Owen will be performing with his dancing crew.

This type of performance the school board made to be a competition, now seems like the old war has been dragged back to reality again, and to be settled on the stage.

"Mia's group vs Owen group..." All students seem to be anticipating this great day, as Mia's crew are all up, rehearsing to bring their best out of their actions on that very day.

As we all know, Owen dancing group are well known for their great performances, and also being loved by most of the students.

Owen having full confidence in his crew and himself does not rehearse much. Unlike Mia, who set her priority in winning the competition for two main reasons.

Firstly, to teach Owen a lesson of his rudeness towards her. Secondly, the compensation price to be won from the competition.

They needed the money to pay for one of their acting group member hospital bills, whose operation is coming up soon. These are the things that pushed Mia of making sure she would win the audition at all costs.

Mia being passionate and focused on winning this competition, spread the reasons for her achievement to her acting group members, which they all supports her.

Everyone in the group knows how much Mia loves acting, and her being passionate about achieving things she set her heart on. All the members in Mia's group, put their full minds to accomplishing the goal the group has set.

Owen shows not much of an energetic attitude towards the audition, as he sleeps in the class every time like a drunkard that lost his way home.

It's just six days to the audition, and almost all students are still up, rehearsing very hard. Not all the ladies in Mia's group dislike Owen because they don't really care about his inner attributes, but just focus on his outer look.

The main event is just about to kick off soon, as most students are all well prepared for the auditioning. Owen dancing group had no serious rehearsal not until 2 days to the audition.

Owen called his crew just to rehearse for a little while, which went well just as they all expected.

The outcome of their rehearsal made Owen, and his crew, not be afraid of not winning the audition. Since they are aware of being loved by most students, they have no fear of losing also.

Fast forward to the main event, the deal day, which is the audition. The stage is already being set, as everyone is busy making their way to the school theatre hall to watch the performances.

And for those performing, they are all behind the stage, getting ready to mount the stage and get the program up.

Mia's group is all set, and ready for their stage play performance, while Owen's group is just making their way backstage.

The event was declared open by Mrs. Jessica, the director for the audition, and the first to perform are the "black bull crew." They were called on for their song performance.

They sang beautifully well, and all students were all up to their feet, screaming, and showing their love for the song, and the crew.

After the black bull performance, Mia's acting group was called on for their stage play performance, and it brought a lot of roars from the crowd. Some students were cheering them on, while some were mocking them due to their interest in Owen's group.

Immediately their stage play ended, the director and some organizers were amazed. The stage drama was so emotional that got their eyes teared up.

All students cheered them up, and after the whole screaming, they left the stage with smiles on their faces.

The next group was called on, which turned out to be Owen's dancing crew. As soon as their name was mentioned, an outburst came from the students. They all stood to their feet, screaming to see them perform for the audition...
