Synopsis

Chapter 1 - Back to School?!

Williams Mansion, Greenville Estate.

" WHAT!! NO! I don't want to!" Exclaimed May as she sprang up from her seat in the study of her 'father'.

"Listen, I know this is something, you most definitely wouldn't like but you have to,May. It is all for your own good." Jeffrey Williams explained patiently.

"No, I don't want to. And that's final, Uncle Jeff. How do you expect me to go back to school?! Heck I'm done already!! I have been studying all my life indoors and I was fine with that then. What more do I have to do in school?!" May demanded.

This whole school thing was definitely not on her agenda right now. She had so much planned out to do and going to school wasn't part of it. Arghh!! Why couldn't she just do what she wanted for the first time in her life.

" Hey, douche face, back me up here. I don't need to go back to school, I am basically working for one of the biggest companies in the whole of Roxa and I already have a degree in Computer Science, what more?! C'mon, Damien, say something," May whined and kicked his leg.

Damien frowned and glared at her after she kicked him.

'Is that how you ask for help? By insulting the person first? ' He thought to himself.

Uncle Jeff was just quietly watching in amusement, how May was vehemently rejecting to go back to school.

" I think, Uncle Jeff is right, May. You need a normal life, that's why you have to go back to school. And technically, what you did here at home wasn't really schooling. Since you left Smart Alecs Academy when you were twelve, you haven't had a normal life. And FYI, your degree has to be validated by a University before you can say you have a degree." Damien concluded feeling satisfied that he had tongue tied.

Soon laughter erupted in the room, and both of them turned to stare at their guardian. Clearing his throat to erase the awkwardness from his sudden laughter, Uncle Jeff said, "Sorry about that but you see May, even Damien agrees with this, and seriously Damien that was a nice way of shutting her.. you should have seen the look on your face, May!"

May scowled at that but he continued anyway,

" May darling, you have to understand that this is all for you. Our family is already known to be mysterious enough since we came here two years ago and I don't want rumors spreading again about us. You are different, I know but I want you to have a normal life and experience things, kids your age go through as well."
