Unearth Myself

Chapter Two

Today has to flow well and good for me. I am wishing and hoping along the way as I walked in the college.

"Oh my god! This must be the new purse" a girl boasting around her posse about her new designed purse but for me, they are all the same: a freaking purse. I don't know why we have to update and change our clothes, handbags, shoes according to the trends almost every week. I mean, precious your money, please.

I shook my head while watching the dramas and scenes that are currently surround me. After I took my books in my locker, I break away from the hallway and rushed into my class which is the Management Class.

Everyone is chatting together and as usual, they never will ever notice my existence in their class. Even my seat is situated in the last row where there is no one else except a rectangle -glassed guy named Stanley, a nerd for others but a truly, only friend for me. Rumour has it that his father is a rich guy who owns three bungalows at least but I would never dare to ask whether it's true. You know, he is a nerd so he has no friend that could have approve or defend something about him but me. Sadly, even I am clueless about him. He had never told anyone who is his father.

So basically, I am his only friend (of course, it remains secret from my stepfather). Well, normally people will judge and avoid after they learned about my family but Stan is a different kind of person.

The first day I met Stan, He always wanted to be my friend. He kept on bugging me and greet me every single day but I told him thousand times about me, my step father and my step brother's life and hoping he will get away from me. I do not want to risk it because if my step dad ever finds out the existence of Stan, he's as good as dead. I don't want Stan to be in any trouble. But truthfully, I'd like to be his friend. He's funny and cheerful and who can resist that? He always helps me out with lessons and willingly be my tutor for free. So I told him that we could be friend as long Riley and my step dad didn't know about us.

As I walk across the classroom, I smile and wave happily at him while adjusting myself on my seat. I don't know what is wrong with him. He keeps on staring me...

Becky's POV

"What?" I asked Stanley in confusion.

"Umm... Nothing, I just admire your hazel eyes, they're pretty" he muttered. Right, now he is admiring my eyes which are odd because my eyes are normal like every day. This is an uneasy situation because nobody ever stares at me like this before.

"God! What's wrong with you? Stop stalking my eyes and don't you tell me that-" I react quickly and desperately fast but I was cut off by Stan.

"Becky, Becky, chill. You're out of control. Take a deep breath and calm down." Stan patted my shoulders, relaxing myself and chuckles a little. Was that funny? I dislike the stares and it's not funny at all.

"What if Riley sees you staring at me and he tells my dad? We'll be ruined, Stan!" I worriedly told him and I am being hysterical right now with my hand acting as if I am sloughing my neck to show him how critical it'll be critical because I fear if that happens, I'll lose my only friend.

"Becky, I've known you for two years and nothing happened. Besides, this is our final year, we will be graduating soon! We both know that you don't like living with them. So, I can ask my dad to hire you as a pianist or guitarist in his studio. Well, you're good with those instruments" he explained slowly to me and I think I heard him offering an offer to me. Is this real? I don't want to get him any trouble.

I am lost inside my thoughts when Stan suddenly brings me back to reality.

"And why do you still want to live with your family?" he said in lower tone.
