Brave success
high school
Morning
Alicia's point of view
I muttered a *thank you* to my driver and got down from the car just to meet a shocking seen.
Almost the whole students were outside screaming and taking pictures of me,I turned to the other side to see Seth also getting out of his car... And I noticed that he was also wearing the same black clothes as mine.
He turned and our eyes met, and I noticed he had a quite surprised expression.
"How dare he wear the same outfit as mine", I thought and rolled my eyes.
"He'll just make people to start thinking something different now"I scoffed and walked away,going straight to class.
"Oh my god,she looks hot today"
"F**k..black sure do look good on her"
"Do you think she and Seth are already an item"
"Yeah, why would they be wearing matching outfits"
"I don't think so, she looked quite surprise staring at Seth"
"She's just a green snake,how cold she stoop so low to almost giving Seth a blow job in the restroom"
"I don't care I still like her"
"She doesn't look scared and naive like before "
"If it was before the Sandra I know would have ran into the restroom and start crying"
"She sure is a savage"
"I think she's going to get suspended or worse expelled"
"No she won't, it's just a rumour,the principal didn't say no sh*t"
"Is her confidence for me?? "
"Damn her straight legs"
"Who knows if she followed him home to complete what she started in the ladies restroom yesterday"A lady suddenly said making all of them to chuckle.
I stopped walking immediately and looked at her direction,I scoffed walking closer to her...
"Hey, what did you just say?? "I asked staring into her eyeballs.
"What?, Are you going to beat me up??"She said with a smirk.
"You and I know that you're nothing but a....."She was going to complete her statement but I cut her off with a resounding slap on her left cheek,and I grabed her hair draging her to the middle of the crowd,Making her and the students around to gasp in shock.
"You know what... I'm going to make a warning to everyone watching me.... I'm not the Sandra of before that cry or run to the bathroom whenever you guys curse at me, I'm a totally changed person and I'lld love it,if every one of you stay off my path....Whosoever tries to f**k with me or get me angry... he or she is going to get it from me"I yelled and pushed the lady to the floor.
I dusted my hands dramatically and walked away with a smirk on my face.Serves her right,I thought .They all gave way for me while I walked pass majestically.
"F**k I love her more"a boy said among them and I gave him a wink walking away.
On my way to class I met Chloe and she ran and hugged me tightly.
"You look really good Sandra"She said and broke them hug.
"Thanks Chloe, and oh,thanks for yesterday...I really appreciate"I said with a smile.
Well.....after the restroom door opened and the students were taking my pictures,Chloe ran into the restroom and held my hands draging me away from the crowd.
"Yeah....you're welcome...I tried your number yesterday, but it was switched off"She said and held my hand and we started walking to class together.
"Yeah,Sorry...I had to switch off my phone because of what happened yesterday, I don't know how they got my number....I've been receiving weird messages and calls from different people"I said with a slight chuckle.
"Oh sorry about that"She said.
"Thanks chloe"I muttered with a smile. There's no way it was Chloe that had posted that sh*t abut me making out with Seth in the restroom,It must be someone else,I thought and held her hand tighter.
"So.... do you mind tellimg me about you and Seth's matching outfits.wait are you guys dating already"She said with a mischievous grin.
"Oh come on, not you too"I said with a groan.
"Come on tell me"She said with a chuckle.
"We're nothing Okay?,I just fell like wearing this dark outfit today...I don't know why he choose to wear his today too of all days"I said with a scoff.
"Come on, there's nothing wrong in wearing the same matching outfits....i actually think you guys will look great together as a couple l"She said earning a glare from me.
"Seth is not my type okay?? "I said and she burst into laughter.
"What do you mean by set is not your type??,Everyone in class,infact in school knows that you have a huge crush on Seth"Chloe said making me scoff.
"Well... Not anymore"I said earning a surprised look from her.
We finally reached the class and we entered,all eyes were on me but I didnt give a f**k, I just muttered a later Chloe and went to sit down on my seat.My eyes met with the HHH girls who glared at me intensely.I scoffed and sat down on my seat dropping my bag on my laps.
After some minutes Xavier and Darius came into the class,Xavier stared at me for some seconds before walking to his seat in the back of the class.
A man came in the class afterwards,I remember him to be Mr Julius,the chemistry teacher. Sandra had told me that his subject is really boring and she doesn't know chemistry that much because of that.Too bad chemistry is my favorite subject.
He droped his bag on the table and wrote the subject and topic on the board...
*Intermolecular forces*
"Good morning everyone"
"Good morning Mr Julius"The class chorused.
"So... I'm going to..."He was staying but the door opens revealing Seth.
'Look at the time the class rep is coming into the class"He said with a frown.
"Where are you coming from young man??"Mr Julius asked.
"I was busy with something"Seth replied rudely and went to his seat.
He looked at Seth and shook his head going back to the board.
"So...the topic on the board is... Intermolecular forces.Can anyone tell me what intermolecular forces means in chemistry?"He asked but no one raised his or her hand.
"Seth??, Xavier??"He called but none of them said anything.
"So... None of you guys can make an attempt on what intermolecular forces mean?? "He asked but nobody said anything,And then I raised up my hand.
"Oh Sandra??,Do you want to make an attempt??"He asked quite surprised.
"Yes. Intermolecular forces are forces of attraction or repulsion which act between neighboring particles like atoms,molecules or ions. They are weak compared to the intramolecular forces,which keeps a molecule together,examples are covalent and ionic bonding"I said and noticed the whole class including the class teacher Mr Julius was looking at me in shock.
"Wow...Sandra...that was wonderful"He said in quite a stutter.
"Thank you"I said and sat down.
I looked around to see everyone's eyes on me,The HHH girls all glared at me and hissed,While Chloe gave me a thumbs up.
"So Sandra has said it all,Now who can list the four intermolecular forces for me? "He asked but no one still raised his or her hands.
"Wow. .Sandra can you still help me with that?? "He asked.
"Sure"I said and stood.
"We have Ion-ion interactions,Dipole-dipole interactions, hydrogen bonding and London dispersion force"I said and sat down.
"That is very good,thank you Sandra"He said with a smile and continued teaching.
The lesson took place for like 2 hours before the bell rang for break time. I don't know why Sandra said his lessons are boring because I really enjoyed his teaching.
Immediately he left the classroom the noise began and everyone had my name on their lips.
I was about to put my book in my bag when hope walked up to me with a smile on her face.
"Wow, Sandra...When did you start knowing chemistry???"She asked amused.
"Well, I read"I replied with a straight face.
"Oh okay. ..i saw what happened between you and Seth yesterday ..I hope you're okay"She asked.
"Yes I am thanks for your concern"I said with a fake smile.
"Oh okay,do you want to eat let's go to the cafeteria together"She said with a smile.
She better prays she was not the one that had anonymously posted that sh*t yesterday,If I find out it was her...she'll regret ever being born,I thought and bit my tongue.
"Sorry I really want to go to the library right now"I said and stood up.
"Ok then, I'll get going then"She said and walked out of the class.
I stared at her backview and scoffed,such an actress.
I looked oven to Chloe yo see get taking to Xavier's bestfriend Darius. I'm going to ask her about her and him later on.
I took my bag and went to the library to see it quite full today,I really want to be alone.
I walked out entered the elevator going to the school's rooftop.
Surprisingly I saw Xavier on the rooftop too. He must have heard my footsteps because he turned around immediately.
I looked at him and scoffed going to the other side of the rooftop.
I stared at the sky and exhaled relaxed, such a beautiful sight I thought and brought out my phone taking a picture of the sky.
"It's beautiful right?? "I heard someone say.
I turned and saw that if was Xavier that had spoken.
"What do you want from me?? "I asked with an eye roll looking into my phone.
"Nothing... I'm just a bit bored"He said and sat down close to me on the floor.
"Oh okay"I said and returned back to my phone.
"You were cool back then in class"He said staring at me.
"Thanks"I muttered.
"Were you always this sassy?? "He suddenly asked.
"You think"I replied.
"Yes, but I love it"He said staring into my eyes making me to almost blush.
"Okay. .."I stressed not finding anything reasonable to say.
"You look beautiful today...I mean hot"He said.
I couldn't help but to blush this time. What's wrong with him...why is he saying all this to me??.
"You're blushing"He said with a teasing smile.
"No I'm not"I lied and stood up.
"Where are you going to??.,we just started talking"He said and stood up too.
"I really want to be alone right now and you're distracting me"I said and turned my face away.
"Really??, then let's be alone together"He said and smiled at me.
I won't deny he's got the perfect smile and I find myself smiling along with him.
"You look really beautiful when you smile so don't stop smiling"He sad and for the first time.....I felt my heart beating faster than usual.

*Italy~Milan*.
Fiori Freschi restaurant
Morning
8:33am
*
Brenda's ( Sandra's mom) point of view.
"Are you sure he's going to be here Honey, I'm starting to doubt if he'll come again"I said to my husband worriedly.
"Of course, Honey... Remember he told us to be here by 8:00...come on..Don't worry he'll soon be here"He replied and squeezed my hand.
We're currently in a popular restaurant in Milan waiting for someone. We've been here for more than 30 minutes but the person is still no where to be found. I've been looking for him for the past 19 years but to no avail.
I got a call from my private investigator 2 weeks ago that the person is in Italy,He gave us the person's number and we had called him and he said we should meet him here by 8:00am.That is why I and my husband came to Italy.... although we're also here for business.
"Do you want any other thing"the waiter asked in his Italian accent.
"No.. We're okay for now"I replied him with his light smile.
"Oh look, he's here"My husband said staring towards the door of the restaurant,I turned to see him walking slowly....looking around the restaurant.
"How do you know it's him...we've never even seen his face before"I said to him.
"I don't know Brenda... I just have a feeling, let's wait and see"He said and took a sip from his cup of wine.
He talked with one of the waitress....And after some seconds she pointed at our table.He said something and smiled at the waitress before walking towards our direction.
"Good morning...are you Mr and Mrs Jones??"He asked in his Italian accent.
"Yes we are...."We replied in unison.
"Oh then that's great...I'm Lorenzo the man you've been talking to on phone"He said and sat down on the seat opposite ours.
"Oh Lorenzo ...It's really nice meeting you,and thanks for coming to meet us"My husband said and shook his hands.
"Yeah,you're welcome,So.....how may I help you people"He said in his deep Italian voice.
"Oh Urmm..."Jones was about to say something but I cut him off.
"We're looking for a woman, Rosalia ,We were told that you both dated back then"I said nervously waiting for his reply.
"Rosalia??"He said more like in a question.
"Yes...are you guys still together??"I asked staring intently at him.
"I and Rosalia broke up 19 years ago after a fight and ever since then...I've never seen her again "He said shattering my hope.
"You.... You haven't seen her ever since then?? "I asked with a stutter in a broken voice.
"Yes, I'm sorry.But if I may ask why are you looking for her? "He asked.
"She stole something very valuable from me. She used to work as a nurse in a hospital back then in Australia....I had given birth to a set of twins,Baby girls....she ran away with one of my girls and ever since then I've been looking for her. We went to her house then but we were told that she moved out with her boyfriend"I said at the verge of tears.
"Oh...yes I remember now she hadn't come back from somewhere and insisted that we move out that day.... Hard luck...that was the reason why we broke up... Rosalia was found of gambling and stealing.....She had almost gotten me killed because of some stupid bet"He said with a scoff.
"Oh no"I muttered
"Oh right,I saw....a friend of mine and he had said that he saw her,I think 5 years ago in Australia "
"Really....she lives in Australia??"I asked again.
"Yes,Although I don't know if she lives there but I remember vividly....he said it was when he had visited his family in Australia,He saw her in a bar"He said.
"That's good news then... We live in Australia too"Jones said.
"That's great but I'm sorry that's all I can tell you about Rosalia.And I pray you find your daughter from Rosalia"He said.
"Urrmm....I really pray so"I muttered lowly.
"If that's all...I better start going before I get late.... I have a meeting to attend by 10"He said and stood up.
"Oh Ok.... Thanks for coming here,we really appreciate"Jones said and shook his hand.
"I'm really sorry about your daughter...But I have a feeling you'll soon find her.... So don't worry too about it "He said and walked out of the restaurant.
"I... I want... to go back home honey"I said in a teary voice.
"Home???,You mean back home in Australia??"Jones asked staring at me.
"Yes honey.....After all..we're through with the business also... So I just want to go home,Please"I said and held my hands together.
" OK dear, I'll just go pay our bills....I'll be right back"He said and gave me a kiss on my forehead.
Immediately he left I took a big gulp from the cup of wine. How could Rosalia do this to me?.What did I do to her for her to make me pass through all this.
"Come on,Honey let's go"Jones said after paying the bills and held my hand.
He took me to our car and opened the door for me,before getting in.
"Don't worry honey we're going to find Rosalia,Remember he said she's now in Australia"He said and kissed my hand.
"What if She just visited or she's no longer in Australia"I said staring at Jones worriedly.
"Let's be positive Brenda, We're going to find Rosalia and get our daughter from her"He said and started the car.
"My poor baby, I just wonder how my daughter is coping with that woman"I thought and burst into tears.
