The paper pasted on the notice board was read slowly. This warning letter showed something serious. If not, why were all students prohibited from entering the school rooftop area?
ATTENTION TO ALL STUDENTS OF SKY BLUE HIGH SCHOOL!
All students are prohibited and BANNED from being in the school's rooftop area.
Lately, more and more Sky Blue students have gone missing, and the last known location of many was the rooftop.
Therefore, students are instructed to ensure their safety even within the school grounds to avoid any unforeseen incidents.
For any inquiries, please contact: Amanda Hayes (Head Prefect) or Mr. Nathan Grey (Principal)
Arsher moved away from the notice board. This is what he was worried about, the exams were getting closer, but the number of students kept decreasing.
"Something's fishy. Why isn't the administration investigating what's happening? I feel sorry for the families of the disappeared students," Arsher muttered to himself, tapping his chin with his finger.
The young man walked towards the flower garden. From there, he could see the condition of the school rooftop. It was beautiful, but that was where many students had disappeared.
Arsher squinted his eyes. He saw a human shadow. He didn't want to make any assumptions just yet. Instead, he lowered his gaze.
'Who is that?' He asked himself. Several other questions raced through his mind. What he knew for sure was that this was probably not a good sign.
"Hey, Arsher!!!" A girl's voice called out. Upon hearing his name, Arsher immediately turned to the left.
Arsher sighed. It was Amanda, his brother's girlfriend. She was also the school's head prefect.
The girl hurriedly ran towards Arsher. Logically, they weren't that far apart.
"Arsher, have you seen Ash?" Amanda asked. This was the question she always asked whenever she bumped into Arsher.
Arsher shook his head. "No, I haven't seen him."
"Huh?" Amanda tilted her head.
"Why don't you find him yourself? Why are you asking me?" Arsher turned and walked away. He didn't feel like entertaining those who were being dishonest.
Fortunately, Aira was dating Ash. If it were with Arsher, she would have been in trouble by now.
Aira was still puzzled. "Never mind, dating Hael is better."
Aira turned around, but her heart almost stopped when she saw the figure in front of her.
"Ash, you scared me," Amanda said as she tucked her hair behind her ear, trying to control her facial expression.
Ash only stared at Amanda without showing any emotion. He should thank Arsher for earlier. He was able to see how Amanda covered up the truth.
"Looking for Hael, huh? He's in the discipline office," Ash said, making Amanda flinch.
Aira took a deep breath. "I wasn't looking for Hael... I... I wanted to... see you... Yeah... see you."
The girl stepped back as Ash moved forward. Step by step, until Amanda's back hit the garden fence.
"Drop the act now. I know you're cheating..." Ash spoke coldly. His eyes stared sharply into Amanda's eyes.
Amanda shook her head quickly, denying it. "No, that's not true... I don't even know who Hael is."
"Don't lie. His father is business partners with your father. Well, the daughter of royal bloodline... You must have the same test as him, right?" Ash grinned sarcastically. He was enjoying watching Amanda struggle to cover the truth.
"I..."
"Even though Hael is younger, he's still from the royal bloodline. You like him, so why not make him your side guy too—"
Smack! A slap landed on Ash's handsome face. He held his cheek, then smiled sarcastically.
"Don't make me tell my father to destroy your family," Aira warned sharply.
Ash raised his head. "I may not be from the Tengku bloodline or whatever, but remember this, Amanda. My mom's empire in Italy could crush your father's company like popping a bottle cap."
"Watch your mouth, Ash!"
"I need a mirror to see my face. I'm speaking the truth. Or have you forgotten who my mom is?" Ash frowned. If Amanda had forgotten who his mother was, that would be sad!
Amanda gritted her teeth. Crazy! She couldn't have forgotten who Ash's mother was. That woman was extremely powerful in Italy, and almost everyone in Malaysia knew her.
Ashley Vionzi.
"That's why I love my heaven so much! People who have never met her still shiver when they hear her name." Ash placed his hand on his chest, dramatically.
Then, he laughed loudly. "HA HA HA HA HA!"
Amanda blushed in embarrassment. Many people were now watching them. Who didn't know Ash? The cold guy who only laughed to embarrass others?
"Are you done, Dynamo?" A familiar deep voice sounded.
Ash stopped laughing. He turned toward where the voice came from. As expected, this figure was still coming down to help. It was easy for his younger brother to make false accusations to trap others.
"Good job, Daredevil. I like that makeup, it looks like a real bruise," Ash nodded in admiration.
Arsher sighed. "It's hard enough for me to make the principal punch you, and you're saying it's makeup?" The boy who was kneeling in front of him was slapped lightly.
"Oh, real? Well, it must be the head prefect who's proud of his scandal makeup." Ash turned back to look at Amanda. He saw that she was crying uncontrollably.
Ash pretended to be surprised. "Huh? Oh my god, why are you crying? Look, Arsher, my sugar..."
Arsher rolled his eyes. "Sugar, huh? This girl is the one who's flirting and hanging out with this guy."
Ash looked at the "prisoner" Arsher had already beaten up.
"Hael. Go, comfort your baby." At that, Arsher pushed Hael's body forward.
Thud! Hael, who wasn't ready, fell onto the ground. With what little energy he had left, the boy lifted his head.
The atmosphere around them was filled with whispers from the students. They couldn't report this to the principal. If they did, they'd all be expelled from the country.
Isn't Ash and Arsher's mother terrifying?
"Amanda, I'm sorry..." Hael spoke softly.
"Ha... Hael..." Amanda replied quietly.
Arsher sighed without a single expression. "So sad. Ash, want to cry together? I've got tissues."
Ash glared at his younger brother. At a time like this, he was asking to cry together? If it were a Korean drama, it'd be fine, but this was the "Koala Love Drama" of Amanda and Hael.
Dynamo stood beside his younger brother. Arsher's shoulder was pulled. His eyes were focused on the two koalas who were creating their tearful drama.
"Amanda, I shouldn't have given you hope..."
"No, Hael. It's not your fault..."
Arsher burst out laughing. "HA HA HA! Do we have popcorn? This '7 Days I Love You' season ten is awesome."
