Chapter 1
TW: Beware of wrong grammar
She is Lexiana. A girl who is simple and not arrogant, she is one of the outstanding students in her school here in Manila, which is Xavier School San Juan or XS. She's currently in grade 7 since she transferred to XS, and right now, she is already in grade 9. She became the girl who led the Drum and Lyre team, and she is also on the dean's list.
She doesn't even care about her surroundings, not just because this guy randomly caught her attention upon everything.
This guy makes her trouble everywhere.
What am I supposed to do when I see that newbie wasting my presence alone?
Rumored to be named Bryle, Bryle Ace Lincoln, but I'm not interested in him.
Fine. It kept me irritated every time I heard his name in my classmate's mouth, I knew he was a transferee, but his name annoyed me.
Not until Mia led me back to gaze.
"Lexianna, come on!" Mia said
"Where are we going?" I asked Mia
"Where else is the famous restaurant? It's the 'Mc Donald's at Madison Ortigas' because we've tried it before, so we'll just go there," Mia said
"Okay, it's up to you,"
Just as we headed there, Bryle's name was there again, of all when I headed there, was he? It could be another area; the size of Manila is still here.
Mia ordered for us, and what she got was Mc Chicken with Rice, Coke float, Bff Fries, also chicken sandwich and Frappes.
We were looking for a place to sit down and just as Mia was about to go near them Bryle, I pulled Mia and said that we are close here, I don't want to negotiate with that Bryle, I'm not my type.
After the food was served and when they looked at us, there were 4 of them When Mia and I were surprised, Kura JR and Hayder Marc suddenly came, the friends who also like me, I'm not even the most beautiful, but if they sign, it seems like they like me. Mia and I just let them be there, we won't pay attention to them. "The two on the side earlier, what's the issue?" Mia asked me while we were eating I glanced at the two. You'd think we'd ignore them, but they would "Yes, I realized that I don't know about those two. Are you done yet? We still have class, right?" "Well, it's obvious you're avoiding it," Mia said with a laugh "You really are what you say, we might be late" I said Typically we just avoid them, in fact it's too crowded it's difficult "Oh, let's go" We headed to our class and it wasn't too late when our professor arrived, it was just surprising because he made the announcement just now "Class, for those who will transfer to the other section, you may proceed to the other section while we wait for those who will transfer here at our section." Announcement by our prof Wait, now I'm supposed to be transferring tomorrow, son of a bitch "Psst, he's here" said Mia hiding from me I'm going to wash my face with amusement, is it him again? He's the one we saw at the spirit restaurant, this man kept popping in and out like he didn't know, among the crowd he was another one there my ghad What's the point of this, he really did it just so he could go to our section? Almost everyone knows him, not everyone because I'm not involved. I have many classmates who are dead in love with him, it's not enough to make him a saint because they love him. What is there about that person, attractive? It's not even too much for me, the height is just ideal but never, maybe something is already forming. It was good and our seat was in the front, he was in the back. I don't know, I don't even like hitting on him. Our teacher came right at that time "Good morning, so this will be your new set up, across with this arrangement you know with the sudden changes already as instructed by your previous adviser, to my class who still here at our section congrats to you for surviving your own terms, now 2nd semester begins, let us prayer, Mia lead the prayer" Mia took the lead and after that it's another breaktime, because it's lunch, we only had recess earlier so it's natural that we go out, we're allowed to go out for an hour but our recess is 10:00-11:00 while our lunch is 1 :00-2:30 inshort 1 hour and 30 minutes for lunch, our class is also until 6 pm and our class starts at 7:00 am, it's still early but it's manageable. We were only in the cafeteria this time and with so many people expecting them to be here again it didn't bother me, especially since I know they are just around, in other words you will be really annoyed. It's not time yet but we just went straight to the library to use the air conditioner and our science teacher is also doing some research so we went straight there When we found a seat, I opened my ipad and started doing research. 30 minutes before time, there was no doubt that my classmates were here again, Mario, Stevan and Fabian Luis. The ugly ducklings. "Can you interrupt Lexiana?" Fabian Luis said "Possible" "It's okay, we can get pissed" Stevan said "What the hell?" Fabian said to them "You still deny it, why did you come here because you want to tease them with Mia?" Mario said "Stupid, no, I'm here in the group study" Fabian said "Weh, I don't believe in that action of yours? It's vague, why don't you just admit that it's already by your side" Stevan said "Wait, are you here to make trouble or review, remember this is a library" Mia said Mia was already irritated by these three, because they had been doing their actions for a while, I don't even know if they meant to cause trouble or not. Mario, Stevan and Fabian Luis are friends, you can't even separate them from all the action, they're really different, you'll just smile at their fellow actions "I'm sorry for my friends, Mia, Lexiana, you know they are like that" Fabian defended them "You idiot, you explained that you still intend to harm us, tsk." Stevan said "Yes indeed" Mario said "Oh, that's right, we still have class, what time is it?" I said We headed to our building at the same time, the library is very close to our building, no doubt even though it's close, you'll still get tired because it's a long way to walk. Finally arrived on time, the weather seems to want to rain today, when I looked out the window of our classroom, it's just a normal discussion until it starts raining, the breeze is nice especially if it's before it rains, its strength seems to be beautiful when you really fall asleep, our instructor stopped teaching and let us rest first, some have their own world, some are doing something, some are idiots, and there are many more but for me I'm still staring at the window, it's a little weird but my favorite I hate the rain if you ask me, Good thing our house is close to my school so there is no problem in case of rain or storm and Good thing I buried an umbrella, I also have a rain coat which is aesthetic because it is transparent. "Okay, class, prepare your things now, and you can go home now," "Thank you, ma'am," We said "Cleaners clean up" I'm not a cleaner, it's hard when the weather is like that, I'd rather be a cleaner if it doesn't want to rain, so I went straight home rather than encountering rain. There is a nanny who will take care of us when my brother is here, actually we are different at school so it's okay, when I got home I immediately made hot chocolate, I also took my laptop to finish my activities in different subjects because I might get dumped again, time passes by I was called I didn't have a nanny to eat and after eating, I freshened up after eating and went straight to sleep. I also don't have class tomorrow. I thought I'd go home to Tagaytay because I didn't go home for the whole first semester, so I'm going back today. Morning I woke up around 5:00 am and I washed myself, I also prepared the stuff I'm going to bring home and I don't want the things piled up here in my room, I rather access everything especially now it's still like this that I have a lot of things that I don't use , I just sent my driver to the terminal heading to Tagaytay, because I also miss going home because it's so relaxing I'm here at the ridge, I fell asleep a bit during the trip, the trip was only a short time so it's fine, I asked the driver to pick me up, when I saw mom and dad on the couch talking "Hi mom, hi dad." I greeted mom and dad when I arrived, then I drove "Oh son, you're here, how's manila?" Mom asked "Toxic mom, but anyways, I excel all my subjects." I said as I dropped my bag on the sofa and sat down The two of them were right on the sofa, while grandma was right out of the kitchen "That is all you Lexiana" said dad "What do you want? Maybe I can buy it for you" added dad "Maybe dad, I'll go with drawing materials as I want to experience drawing again, you know that since my arm was broken I can't use my right hand anymore, well although I can use it but I'm trying too use it" "Sure, let's go to Robinsons tomorrow to buy" "Hey, thank you, Dad," "Where is your brother?" Mom asked "Mom left, she said she was busy" I said "Is that so, or he eats your favorite paella first." "Who cooked?" "Me," said grandma Wow, grandma is so sweet "Thank you, grandma, I miss it so much." "Yes grandpa, as long as you improve your studies, don't neglect it, it's hard for the uneducated" "Of course, I won't neglect my studies either" I said and ate paella I made a video call to my brother and he answered right away "Brother, go home, there's paella here" I boasted to my older Kuya Achilles "Wow, you're cheating, when you're given what about me?!" My brother reasoned with me "Go home, brother, only Kingston Hild and I will eat this for sure" "Wait for me, Lexiana," Kuya Achilles said A/N: (Instead of Older Brother, we change it to Kuya) For sure that will come home "You're really young, you're going to send your brother home because of that, okay, I'll cook more, so there's no shortage" Grandma said "Thank you, la" Hours later... "Hi guys, I'm home!" Bro shouted "Brother, your voice sucks" I said "What's up, my trip is going to make noise," he said "Che, it's distorted" "Shhh," We are always like this as brothers and sisters, our actions are really lacking, it seems like we fight, but I also miss this brother of mine, how is he always not at home, but when he comes home from school it's around 9 at night, it's just that sometimes his schedule is different so sometimes senior high school is also hard to beat. It's good that I'm not even Senior High yet but I was hit by fate, I find that my brother mentioned that he has friends, well I'm not interested either so I don't have any. Soon I'll be doing my school works, I'm still tired from the trip so I'll just go back to sleep, it's hard. As soon as I woke up, I suddenly freshen up and continued with my pending activities, it's not even a reason for cramming, just that I came home instead of a vacation. We have groupings in the arts and my group is the sly new student that everyone likes, who else is Bryle, I don't care about that but it irritates me badly, I don't know what's wrong with that person. 1 message received *Are you in Tagaytay? From: Celestina Message sent *Yes why? Do you need me in Manila? To: Celestina 1 message received *No, I'm just asking about the arts, of course you know that the proof is strict From: Celestina Message sent *That's just about the painting, so we'll talk about it in the group chat so we can take care of it, because it also depends on our group members, so who are our members? To: Celestina 1 message received *Bryle, Kaioux, Mario, Fabian Luis, Jai, Leyzel, and me and you From: Celestina Message sent *Is that just us? To: Celestina 1 Message Received *Yeah From Celestina Message sent *Alright, like this, just make a group chat so we can meet the activity To: Celestina 1 Message received *Alright, beh From Celestina Just a few minutes ago, I was immediately added to group chat Celestina: Are we missing anything? Mario: We're go. It's just us Celestina: Alright Fabian Luis: What will we do with the activity? Lexiana: They said to draw and then design Bryle: What kind of drawing and design? Lexiana: I don't know how to suggest you Celestina: It's vague, I can't think of anything Kaioux: Why don't we get inspirations from Pinterest? Leyzel: Kaioux is right. We should do some painting that will inspire children Celestina: How about this? *The pic is located at the top. Lexiana: There are many reflections that can be written, I think that's fine Fabian Luis: When do we start? Leyzel: On Monday, right Stevan: On Monday? We have a tournament Leyzel: Will you prioritize the tournament? Why don't you prioritize this so you don't have to do anything else? Stevan: Well, we're already fighting. Can we just insert it on Tuesday? Leyzel: Go ahead Fabian Luis: That's because you're stubborn Stevan: I know, it's a fight I'll join Mario: That's right, Fabian and Stevan the important thing is that Fabian said goodbye so the leader knows Fabian Luis: God, I don't want that Lexiana: That's right, the important thing is that you get things that we will use for this activity, so that the rest of us can use something even if you are not there. Stevan: Alright Lexiana Fabian Luis: What are we going to get? Kaioux: Watercolor Bryle: Color pencil Leyzel: Oil Pastel and Cotton Fabian Luis: Let us take care of it They stopped chatting in group chat, it's not too much noise, they don't even know that we quiet people are making noise? I just let them go and continued with the other requirements, I also finished cleaning and changing other parts here in my room, I also fixed my clothes, it's refreshing because there are activities at school again so I'm not alone I'll be surprised if ever how long it's been gone because we also took a semester break. When I finished everything, I went down just as my brother was cooking food, I wondered where the smell was so I just went down "Eat, princess" said Kuya Achilles "Weird brother, you know? How many times have you called me princess? Yuck." I spoke "Oh, you're my brother, yes, Lexi, maybe you'll sulk," said Kuya Achilles "My brother, you don't even understand that you're different," I said angrily "Btw Luna, here's the food," said older brother "Why are you in the habit of cooking, brother?" I asked curiously "It's like I know what I'm going to do if I'm separated, but for you, I won't cook for you not just because you're still young, I wanted to give you princess treatment so give way little Kitty," Big Brother said "You're a cheater Big bunny!" I said and slump on his back "Hey Little kitty stop it," "No, I won't stop, hmmp." While slumping at him I played his hair like an unicorn "Fine Little Kitty I will cook your favorite food" "Yehey! About that Big bunny, are you going somewhere tomorrow?" "Why?" Brother Achilles said "Let's go to Robinson brother, let's go shopping?" I spoke "Alright, I'll go with you to make it better, we'll talk about hanging out with my friends next time, family first" My brother smiled at me so I smiled "Yehey! It's good to have you with me brother" I said I'm glad we're complete. "Of course, if I don't give it to you, your behavior will be different again," said Kuya Achilles "You really know me bro"c "Of course, I'm your brother and I don't want you to fight me over a little thing," said Kuya "Ahhh brother, when are you coming back to Manila?" Kingston asked brother Achilles "Maybe next week, my rest schedule has been extended a bit" "Awww is it just you? What about us?" I ask "Yehey, you've been here for a long time brother" Kingston said "I was about to sulk, you know, brother? You're bad, I thought you were going to come with me, but you're not," I said with a frown "Don't sulk, don't you mind if brother goes with you to Manila if you want? I'll pick you up" said brother "Really brother, okay, thank you." "Do you know someone that named Bryle?" My brother ask me Why is he asking? Did he knows him? "My classmate? Why brother?" I clarified at him "His older brother is my classmate in short, so I think you will get along well, we also discussed that one day you will end up together" What the hell in the world that my brother think about that?! "That's vague brother, seriously are you doing this to me? You're worst than a psychopath" I said Are you serious brother? It's like there's no joke on his face, why the blur? Wait, Bryle's brother is his brother's classmate? Bryle is also my classmate. What a coincidence. What a small world?! Is it still, right? It's like something else, I don't know if I'm even more annoyed with my brother than what he said, it's not even bad tripping me, tsk
