"Let us handle this sir, we will bring your daughter here safely," the firemanreassured, using his hands to block William, the father, from following hisemotions and making such a stupid decision."No! This should be a father's duty!" William insisted, pushing the firemanaway from him, and moving all the blocks aside to go inside their burninghouse."But... honey! Please stay! The rescuers will save her!" Katherine uttered, pullinghis husband's sweater closer. Stopping his actions and looking back at her,William spoke, "Can you hear yourself right now?! This is your child's life!" Heangrily freed himself and ran inside, his every step leaving traces on themuddy ground.Entering the burning place, he caught a glimpse of his daughter at the corner,passed out because of the smoke. Walking closer, he bent down and wiped herface in an attempt to erase all the dirt but instead scattered it more than itwas initially."Killian, are you okay?" With the growing smoke, he asked her daughter.Receiving no response, panic swelled up inside him. Shaking Killian, he saw aman walking towards them.Extending his hands, the fireman ordered, "Sir, give us your daughter.""Please bring her out safely. Also, when she's awake, tell my wife to keep thisaccident a secret. I feel like I can't get out of here alive." Stopping at most ofhis words due to lack of air, he begged, handing Killian. "Just hang in there, sir. I'll be back. Just-just don't close your eyes." The mangrumbled, fixing her position in his arms and walking away.Struggling to follow the man's instruction, he smiled sadly as he knew hewouldn't be able to survive."I had fun." As the words left his mouth, he reminisced every moment he had.With his wife, with his friends, and with his daughter. From the happiness andthe fact that he would not be able to feel those things once again, more tearsstreamed down his face as he closed his eyes.
KILLIAN'S POV:
I jump in horror as I wake up from a nightmare that brings me to tears.Perplexed by my dream, I took shaky breaths in an attempt to calm myselfdown.
After a while of staring at the ceiling, I happen to see my phone. As Ichecked the time, I saw the date and... "First day of school... I need to getup".I stood up and directly ran to the bathroom. After a while, my Aunt calledme, "Killian, you're going to a new school. You can't be late." From that, Iimmediately ran out of the powder room and put on my uniform.Almost bumping into Elle, I bid goodbye to my Aunt as I jogged to our frontdoor and slammed it behind me. Fixing my shoelace a little, I went on myway to the train station, hoping it was not too late yet.As I paid for my fare, I looked at my clock and found out that only 13minutes were left for me before the start of our class. "First day, and I'malready going to be late; you should have set the alarm, Killian. Goodness!"Suddenly stopping, the train arrived at the exact location I needed to be in.Immediately leaving the vehicle, I headed to the university as fast as I could.Using my knees as a supporter, I pant and observe the place. By doing so, Ifelt excitement, and on the other hand, nervousness bubbled inside me as Ientered the main gate.Opening the door of my assigned room and stepping inside, I greet myteacher standing in front of me. "Hello ma'am, good morning. I am a newstudent arriving today." Smiling at me, the professor informs her students,"Okay, class. This is our new student. Miss kindly introduce yourself."Hello everyone, I'm Killian, Killian Madison from Malcolm University,currently 17 years old. I am looking forward to meeting you all, thank you! As I sat beside Felix, I found him casually staring at me while the class wasstill ongoing. "Not to be rude or anything but please stop staring at me, Ifound it uncomfortable" I requested. "How can I stop staring at you? Youshine brighter than all-stars combined. Deciding to ignore his words. I fixedmy gaze on the board listening to the discussion.F E L IX' S POVKILLIAN'S POVIt's my second day being a transferee in this school, someone called my namewhile I was eating my lunch. As I was looking in the direction where the voicecame from I saw the guy from yesterday heading towards my location,having his lunch in hand."Hello, again there m'lady can I eat beside you?" He said to me with aflirtatious tone."What if I don't want you to?" I shot back with an annoyed expression.Chuckling a bit, he replied, "Hmm, what if I share your secret with everyone?Tell them you like that Eug guy?"Stopping my movements, I glanced at him and told him that's ridiculous."Nah, you can't deny it. It's written in your diary.""My diary?""Yes, here." Placing something on the table, he gave me a playful smirk.Gulping, I was about to reach for my notebook when he took it and waved itabove him,"Let's have an agreement, huh dear?" he said, while I stared at him nervously."Okay, I'll do anything. Don't tell anyone about it please," I replied.I was writing in my diary about my feelings towards Eug, the guy I met earlier.He was so kind when I accidentally bumped into him. Almost at the end of mysentence, when all of a sudden, the professor called him. "I heard he is quickwitted," I said to myself as I heard him answer the question like it was nothing.After listening, the professor decided to stop his lecture as we heard the bellring. Walking fast, I bump into the same guy that kept staring at me earlier."Sorry, I wasn't watching where I'm goi-, you again? On my first day ofschool, I'm already unlucky." picking up my things that were scattered on thefloor, I got up and walked away from the place.
I haven't processed the situation yet as I saw a notebook lying on the ground. Knowingthat this is her diary, "This might be hers; I can use this to blackmail her." I said, leavingthe campus and heading to my house.
