Chapter 13 - The aura of Light

Isabella and the rest of her classmates were seated in class listening to the literature teacher who was busy explaining some terms in literature. She seems distracted as her focus is now on a boy who looks absent minded in class. Teacher exclaimed, calling out to the male student. Hey Thomas! There was no reply from him as he seems not to be paying attention..... Teacher upset as she screams aloud. Thomas, get the ear phone off your head right now! His seat mate suddenly taps him and brings him back to reality. Thomas frightened as he quickly hide his ear phone and avoided his teacher's piercing gaze at him.

I'm sorry, 'Mrs. Show... he quickly apologizes. I got carried away.

The teacher warns. This isn't like you Thomas. You better sit up or else, you're going to get an F in your grade. I promise it won't repeat itself again. He pleaded. It better not..... She gives him a disappointed stare then turns her attention back to the class. Now, back to what I was explaining earlier... I define poetry as the...… Two male students walked right into the class accompanied by the Vice-Principal of the school.

Isabella recognizes the face of the male students as she signed deeply; Not Again! The vice-principal speaks up as she turns to the teacher apologetically. I'm sorry, Mrs. Show but I will like to take some moment of your time to address the whole class, if you don't mind?

The teacher smiled. Sure, that wouldn't be a problem. Thank you, Mrs. Show... answered the teacher as she turns to the class. Good day Class! Class all exclaimed in unison.... Good day Ma! Vice-Principal continues to speak..... Standing before you are two new transferred students. She introduces them..... On my right, you have William and on my Left is his brother, Michael. First female student sitting at the front row of the class whispers to her other female seat partner.... wow! they look so handsome and charming too. Her female seat partner answered. You're right girl. she smiled. I think the William guy looks even cuter.

Isabella: Why are they even here! ... Feeling uneasy, she buries her head on her desk hiding her frustration. Tina exclaimed excitedly. This is going to be the best session ever!... They're both going to be your classmates as from this day henceforth. I want you guys to treat them like you will treat the rest of your colleagues. Am I understood?!.. Said the Vice-principal.

The class all answered in unison. Yes Ma! The vice-principal nodded. Good!..... She turns her attention back to Mrs. Show. Thank you for your time, 'Mrs. Show'. The teacher nodded. No problem Ma. The vice-principal walked out of the class while Mrs. Show ushers the new students to find a seat for themselves. Michael quickly gets an empty seat as he sat down. William sighted Isabella from afar and wants to seat next to her. He walked straight to her desk. Can I seat next to you? He smiled staring at her intensely.

Isabella upset. Are you blind? Can't you see the seat had already been occupied? William nodded. I know... Are you toiling with me? He smiled and turns his focus on Tina. Hello Beautiful. Tina smiles shyly. Yes, how can i be of help to you? William smiled charmingly at her which makes her blush. Do you mind vacating your seat for me to sit? Isabella upset....How rude?

Tina answered. Why should I vacate my seat for you? In exchange for anything you so desire. He replied. Tina replied in anticipation. Really? He nodded. I never break a promise. She turns around and finally answered. I want to seat next to your bro..... Why do you want to seat next to him? i think he looks smart and handsome too. She giggles. Alright. He answered. You can sit next to my brother if you wish.

She gets up in excitement, quickly packs her books, and bag then heads towards Michael desk as she takes a seat next to him. William now turns his gaze on Isabella. As you were saying?.... Whatever... mutters Isabella. William takes a seat next to her. Don't I have the right to want to know you better?.... You act cunny than you look. she answered bluntly.

William smiling..... I have no idea what you're talking about angel? Shh! Stop calling me that? she mutters quietly..... Then, what should I call you? I'm sure you do have a name, don't you?

Their conversation was interrupted as the teacher makes an announcement. How about we take a short break. There's something I need to do at the moment. I will be right back...… She takes her leave as the class suddenly began to get noisy. You can call me Isabella..... replied Isabella. That's a beautiful name. said William. She smiled. Thank you..... I just wonder why you dislike me?....I don't dislike you. answered Isabella. I have no reason to dislike you. Then, why the sudden cold shoulders?..... I just find you suspicious? she declared. Why? asked William.

Isabella answered. You told me you knew my dad and then, you never told me about him. I don't think i trust your words....I understand how you feel but trust me, I'm harmless. He said assuredly... Isabella signs. I guess I will have to stick with you for the meantime...… Just then, the school bell rang signifying time for lunch break. Some of the students rushed out excitedly to have lunch. Tina and Michael approaches William and Isabella.

Aren't you guys going out for break? Asked Tina. I will definitely go if Isabella decides to come with us. Answered William..... I'm going to get sandwiches and apple juice for lunch. said Michael. Are you coming or not?. Tina smiled. Wow! That's pretty nice. I think I'm going to try that too. What about you William? Said Michael. What are you going to have for Lunch?

William smiling as he stares at Isabella. I will go with whatever Isabella chooses to take. Tina smiling. Wow! that's so sweet. So, what's our rude Princess going to have then? asked Michael. Tina smiled.... I don't think she's going to take anything till John shows up. I wonder why you're suddenly bringing him up? Replied Isabella. Who's John? William getting curious. Just someone Isabella likes. Stop joking around Tina. Said Isabella as she tries to keep her quiet. Wow, I'm already getting jealous. laments William. You don't have to be jealous of anyone. I have no idea what Tina is talking about. she said.

You know you can't hide the way you feel about him... sooner or later, you're going to realize this...…declared Tina. Almost immediately, John appears in the Class. Can I please have a word with you Isabel? Said John

I don't think we have anything to talk about John. she answered. As you can see, I'm not in the mood to talk. He quickly grabs her arm and was about to lead her away when William stopped him.... What are you doing?! John upset. You heard the young lady. answered William. She doesn't want to talk to you. You better do yourself a favor and leave.

John angry. Who are you to tell me what to do?! I'm just a guy who cares about respecting ladies' privacy. replied William... I don't give a damn about who you are! He shouted. I think you should find yourself a hobby and stop trying to poke nose on other people's business...

William mocks him. I think I now understand why Isabella dislikes you. Why will I want to be friend with someone who's a freak..... John stared angrily at him. What did you just call me?! No one will want to be friends with a complete loser... he provokes him.

John hits him hard on the Face as William retaliated. A fight suddenly broke out between them as the class goes into chaos. Bump!..... Isabella screams out. Can you both stop fighting! You both should be ashamed of yourselves! ...…. They finally let go of each other as the class becomes still. I'm highly disappointed in the both of you, most especially you John... she stares at him in disappointment as she walks out of the class.
