I quickly got up from him and looked back at who pushed me.

Felix - S-sorry...they pushed me.

He said pointing at Drew,Calix and some others.
I glared at them.

Eman - It's okay.

He said standing back up and helping me up too.

Ashlyn - Thank you.

Eman - Are you okay?

Ashlyn - Yeah,what about you?

Eman - Yeah...I'm good.

Then we heard a scream.
Out attention turned to Jay-Jay and Keifer.
Keifer had tripped her and Jay fell down.

Ashlyn - Keifer! What are you doing?

He didn't look at me or couldn't react as well cause Jay tripped him in no time.
Everyone gasped.

Ashlyn - Yes! That's it!

I felt proud of Jay-Jay.
I felt an pull from the side,it was Felix.

Ashlyn - What?

Felix - Don't get into their troubles,stay out of them.

Ashlyn - I know!

Rory - You choose to do the wrong thing!

He said to Jay as Keifer yelled at her.
What's wrong with him? He did it first...Tit For Tat they say.

Keifer - You crazy women!

He screamed as others cheered on Jay run for her life.
Jay started running and Keifer chased her.
I was worried as others weren't even trying to stop him.
Keifer grabbed her and started spinning around.

Jay-Jay - Stop it! Leave me,Keifer!

She shouted.
And...they suddenly kissed.
David who was at my side closed my eyes.

Keifer - You did it intentionally.

Jay-Jay - No!

Ashlyn - David,take your hands off!

He took off his hands.

Ashlyn - Hey,you should tell them to get a room instead of closing my eyes.

Felix flicked my head.

Felix - Where did you learn that,kid!?

I rubbed my head glaring at him.

Ashlyn - Stop hitting me! As if not everyone already knows.

David - Oh my goodness,kids these days have been spoiled alot.

He put his hands onto his hips staring at me done.

Asnlyn - Haha! You are acting like a typical mom.

I giggled.

Felix - He's right too,when I was 15 I didn't even know what love was.

Ashlyn - Yeah,sure...I believe you.

Felix - It's true!

David - Yeah,we were innocent.

He said nodding his head.
I sighed knowing whatever excuse I use,they always have a reason to scold me.

Eman - Aren't you being a bit too much?

He came into the scene.
Before anyone could reply to anything...Aries came to us.

Aries - Jay,is there a problem?

Ofcourse! There is...please punch Keifer!

Keifer - Get back to your section.

Aries - Jay,let's go.

He said grabbing her hand but Keifer grabbed her hand too.

Aries - Leave her!

Keifer - No! Why are you concerned?

Aries - She's my cousin! I am concerned!

They both were trying pull Jay to their sides.

Jay-Jay - Guys! Leave,it hurts!

They weren't ready to leave her.

Keifer - She belongs to Section E!

Aries - No!

Keifer pulled her harshly to his side and kissed her.
This time...it wasn't accidental.
Jay-Jay pulled out of the kiss and punched him making him stumble back.

Jay-Jay - Yes!

I felt someone hold my palm.
Eman...he was holding my hand.
No one noticed it but it was so nice! His hands were warm.
He smiled at me and I smiled back at him.

Time skip

School ended,we packed up and were walking outside.

Ashlyn - Jay,are you okay?

She nodded her head.

Jay-Jay - Why did keifer do that? Do you think he likes me? He's been doing this to me since few days.

Ashlyn - What has he been doing?

Jay-Jay - You know? Being nice to me and all.I've been sitting beside him too and he doesn't bug me anymore.

I nodded my head trying to understand.

Ashlyn - Maybe he does...but don't fall for him,he bullied you.You deserve better.

She nodded.

Someone pushed me and I looked around.
It was Felix.

Felix - Hey! There's an exam tommorow...want me to come over?

Ashlyn - Sure! I really need someone to study with.

I looked at Jay-Jay after an pause.

Jay-Jay - Don't mind me...if I join,i think we will only gossip without studying.

That's right!

Ashlyn - Will you be okay?

Jay-Jay - Yeah! I'll manage.

She smiled trying to reassure me.
I smiled back slightly.
Eman had already told he'd be studying with his friends.

Time skip

I was in my pajamas and cleaned my room waiting for Felix to come over.
At 6 PM,I heard the bell ring.
I ran over excitedly to meet him.
I opened the door to see the unexpected again...Keifer?

Keifer - Hello!

He said passing me and coming inside.

Ashlyn - Keifer...what are you doing here?

Keifer - What? Don't you want to study?

Felix - Sorry,I should've told you...Keifer and Yuri wanted to join our study session.

I sighed giving him a done look.
Why's my life so unexpected?

Yuri - Sorry for inconvenience,we can leave if you want.

Aw! That's how a matured man behaves,learn Keifer!

Ashlyn - It's fine if it's for studies...just don't cross the line.

Keifer - Alright! Show us the way to your room.

I showed the way.
So annoying! I hate Keifer so much...can't he be nice for once?

Time skip

Keifer helped me with studying alot today.
It's 7:30 PM.

Keifer - Let's take a break.

Ashlyn - Huh?

Keifer - What? Don't you take breaks in between? You'll burn out if you keep studying all day.

I nodded.

Ashlyn - Thanks for the help today.

Keifer - It's okay,there's too much intelligence in me...wanted to share some.

I sighed,he's still the same.

Yuri - Stop annoying her,Keifer.

I nodded...exactly Yuri.

Ashlyn - Okay! Do you want to eat or drink anything? I'll order.

Felix - Ey! Why waste money now?it's okay get something for yourself.

Ashlyn - You are my guests and you also helped me understanding alot of topics,so it's my treat.

Yuri - Sushi!

Keifer - Pizza? No pineapple please.

Felix - Since they said food,how about some drinks? Coke?

They nodded their heads.

Ashlyn - Okay,I'll order them.

Yuri - Thank you.

Ashlyn - Don't mention it.

I said smiling at him.
I ordered the food and we started eating.
I wanted to ask so many questions to them...I mean my brother's three closest people are here.

Ashlyn - Hey Keifer...do you really like Jay-Jay?

He raised his eyebrows.

Keifer - Why do you ask so?

Yuri got abit interested in the conversation.
Felix was devoted to eating the pizza.

Ashlyn - Who wouldn't ask so? You kissed her today...so tell me do you like her or not?

He just shrugged his shoulders.
Does that mean he kissed her even though he doesn't like her?

Ashlyn - Keifer,please be serious. I'll just give you a tip,if you like her then change! Not all girls fall for assholes and if you don't...stop confusing her. Either way you are only going to end up hurting her,that's what I feel.

Keifer stared at me blankly.

Keifer - You seem like an expert.

He laughed.
What is he? A psycho? A moment ago he seemed serious and now he is laughing.
After eating,we studied for some time and they left for home.
I texted Eman.

Ashee - Hey! What's up? How's it going?

Supermann - It's going okay ig...they are so chaotic,I wish I studied alone 🥲.

Ashee - Why!?

Supermann - Let me show you.

Video send by Supermann.

I opened the video to find Drew,Denzel and Rory jumping around his bed and fighting.
I laughed to myself as he showed himself fake crying at the end of the video.

Supermann - Understood why I said so?

Ashee - Yeah totally! 😆 Oh my poor Eman,don't cry.

Supermann - I need you babe!

My heart dropped,I wanted to scream out so loud.
I was so happy.

Ashee - Babe!?

Supermann - Why? you didn't like it?

Ashee - No,no it's not like that...I like it.I'll come to school tommorow,right? Don't worry.

Supermann - Okay! 😁

Ashee - Good boy! Now go and study.

Supermann - Yes Madam!

I laughed to myself.

Ashee - Okay!

Seen.

I switched off my phone kicking my legs in air.

I feel so happy!

Next day

I put the flowers Eman gave me in the vase.
I started going to school with Jay.

Ashlyn - Jay,you look so pale...you alright?

Jay-Jay - Yeah,I'm good...it's the cold coffee I had yesterday.

She said and sneezed.

Ashlyn - I'm fine? You just sneezed.

We went to the washroom before going to class.
She washed her face as I waited for her.
Rakki came in.

Rakki - Oh! Hi guys!

Ashlyn - Hey.

Jay-Jay - H-

She sneezed again.

Ashlyn - God,your cold is getting worse...I'll get you a medicine from clinic.

She shook her head.

Jay-Jay - No.

Rakki - Wait...I have a flu tablet.

She said handing it out.

Jay-Jay - I already took some medicines.

I hummed,Rakki seemed like she wanted to say something.

Jay-Jay - Why? Do you want to say something?

Ashlyn - Yeah,it seems like you want to say something to us.

Rakki - I wanted to speak about this long back but it delayed due to my tennis practice.

Ashlyn - It's okay,you still have the time to say.

Rakki - How was your situation when you and Freya fought?

Jay-Jay - Not very good.

Rakki looked at me for an answer.

Ashlyn - Same...not that good.

Rakki - Knew it! Freya wouldn't stop until there...she will take it out more on you guys,she did it to me too! She drags others into the mess too.She dragged Ci-N in my case and send him go Section E.

Ashlyn - What?

Rakki - Yeah! Aries wouldn't lift a finger cause there's something between them!

Ashlyn - Oh yeah...I know about that.

Jay-Jay - What do you mean?

Rakki - Well...this stays in between us,okay?

Jay nodded her head desperate to know what happened.

Rakki - Well,I found Freya and Aries kissing in Mykels party...it wad even before Ella.

Jay-Jay made an 'O' quite shocked at what happened.

Jay-Jay - Freya and Aries?

Rakki - Yeah,Freya uses that as leverage to get what she wants.

Ashlyn - So it isn't just a rumor anymore...

Rakki - You knew about it?

Ashlyn - Yeah...a friend told me.

Jay-Jay - Wait...can we speak about what you said before? What do you mean Freya is the reason for Ci-N being in Section E?

Ashlyn - Exactly? What did the bitch do?

Rakki - Ci-N didn't tell you yet?

We shook our heads.
Ci-N is such a nice friend of mine but I still don't even know why he's in Section E.

Rakki - Okay let me tell you...Ci-N kissed me once before.

Jay-Jay - He told me this.

She clapped her hand once.

Ashlyn - Yeah!

I nodded my head.

Rakki - Apparently,Freya liked him too...so she didn't like that.So, she made up stories about him making everyone believe that Ci-N is a thief.The rumor got so bad that he was sent to Section E.

Ashlyn - Fuck that whore! How dare she? She's not just an arrogant bitch but also an egoistic ass who can't even take an simple rejection.

They nodded their heads.
I was so angry,I'm going to show her what Karma atcaully is.
Me and Jay went to class for the exam.
Sir Alivn passed the files to answer the questions.
Jay-Jay sat in between Yuri and Keifer.
I was sitting between David and Ci-N,Eman was behind Mr.
I looked at Ci-N with worried eyes...I was so shocked at how cheerful his character is while he went through hell.
Yes,it is he'll ofcourse...I understand how horrible it is when no on believes you.
Ci-N asked me for some answers in between to which I showed some.
There were so many questions I was able to answer.
The exam was done.

Ci-N - How was your exam!?

Ashlyn - It was okay,I studied well yesterday.

He nodded.

Ci-N - Let's see who gets more marks.

He said laughing.

David - Did you write well?

I nodded my head.

Ashlyn - Yeah,I'm sure my grades will go up...what about you?

David - Yeah! Same here,it was easy.

Ashlyn - Nerdy huh?

He gave me a playful glare.
Sir Alvin left the class.
I turned around only to meet a sleeping Jay-Jay.
David went to wake her up.

David - Wake up,Jay.

Jay-Jay - Few minutes more,wait.

She said in a drowsy voice.

David - What are we waiting for? School is over.

Drew - If you don't wake up now...Keifer will give you a smooch!

They said making kissing sounds.
Disgusting!

Ashlyn - Jay! Wake up,girl.We aren't here to sleep...I get you are sick but you can't stay here.

She woke up.

Her eyes closed,she must be so drowsy.

Keifer - Open your eyes.

She shook her head.

Keifer - I guess you really want me to kiss you.

I gave him a side eye...what's he doing?
She quickly opened her eyes.

Drew - If you didn't open your eyes,we would've seen another kiss!

He said as others started teasing her.
She looked at them done.
Jay-Jay started searching for something.

Ci-N - What are you searching for?

Jay-Jay - Where's my exam paper?

Keifer - We passed it to Sir Alvin.

Jay-Jay - What!? I didn't write a thing on it...how can you pass it down!?

Ashlyn - You didn't write anything?

She nodded at me with worried eyes.

Ashlyn - It's okay...you were sick.

Everyone started going out.

Jay-Jay - What am I going to answer to Angelo!?

She said going out too and I followed her.

Felix - How did your exam go? Was it fine?

Ashlyn - Yes! Thanks for your help yesterday.

I looked at Keifer and Yuri beside Felix.
Eman was waiting for me and told he was going to drop me today.

Keifer - Look! You are grateful for me.

Ashlyn - Yeah,I am!

Keifer - See,You finally said you need me in your life.

Ashlyn - I never said that...I only said I was grateful.

I gave him a done look.
I was about to go.

Keifer - Okay! Wait up...You did well.

He said to me smiling.
It didn't feel like a joke this time,It felt genuine.
I smiled at him.

Ashlyn - Thanks.

He smiled back.
Yuri was smiling at us,I could say through the edge of my eyes.
Felix was going out with them.
I walked to Eman who was abit away.

Eman - How did it go?

Ashlyn - Keifer was atcually nice to me for the first time!

Eman - What did he say?

Ashlyn - He told I did a good job...isn't it nice? I guess he finally decided to be nice.

Eman nodded.

Ashlyn - How did your exam go?

Eman - It was okay,I guess.

He scrunched his nose.

Ashlyn - That's okay,you'll do better next time...maybe I'll probably fuck up maths.

Eman - Don't say that,we will work it out.

Ashlyn - Ofcourse...shouldn't we do something for getting through the first exam?

Eman - What should we do?

Ashlyn - Should we treat ourselves a move night?

Eman - Sure! Today? I'll tell mom.

Ashlyn - Okay! But it would be fine,right? I mean you help at your restaurant everyday.

Eman - It's okay,mom would understand.

I nodded my head.
I was thinking about what to do to Freya for what she did to us and Ci-N,I would never forgive her.

Noah - Hey...let's speak.

So guys that's for today
