Somewhere at school...

Both Leon and Luke is panting for breath after running away from Lia. They were a few more seconds close to chaos if they stayed there. Luckily for Leon, Luke was there to pull him out of the chaos.


"Hey, are you crazy back there? You could've really got yourself beaten by her!"

"Well, I-"

"Anyway, did you really said yes that she's your first love?"

"Uhmm...yes?"

"You really have some nerves to say that. It's actually the first time in a very long time that I've ever seen her got confessed again."

"You know her?"

"Of course! She's my sister. Besides, even if I weren't, she's far too popular not to be known."

"If she's your sister, do you mind telling me her name?"

"Uhh...As if I'd ever do that. I'm definitely gonna be mad at if I were to."

"Well, if you don't tell her, she'll never know." he then look at Luke and smirk at him.

"She's gonna know even if I don't tell her. Anyway, you're new right?"

"Yeah. Why?"

"By any chance, are you looking for the principal's office?"

*        *        *

At the principal's office...

"You called me sir?"

"Yes. Take a seat."

Oh gosh...the principal doesn't look okay. What did I do wrong to be called here! Please someone or just anyone...GET ME OUT OF HERE!!!(screaming silently)

"Mr. Jones"

"Yes, sir!"

"I supposed you're questioning yourself why you are here, yes?"

"I supposed so, sir"

"Lately..."

He stopped. As if he's doubting himself. Am I in trouble?

"I've heard news that I had wish I hadn't. You know, Mr. Jones, you are quite remarkable but this news I'm talking about is what makes me disappoint. So, what do you want me to do, Mr. Jones?"

"Excuse me, sir? I don't quite catch what you're trying to say."

He then went for his table and open the drawer. He took out an envelope. I don't know what it is but then he took some papers out from the envelope or so I thought it was papers. He then tossed it on the table and I realized it was photos of me. Who take these pictures? I pick one of it and look at it in shock.

"S-sir...T-this is not what you think. The thing is-"

"What Mr. Jones? I think it's pretty much explained already. Judging by those photos."

"But sir, it could be a photoshop"

"It isn't. I made sure of it."

"Sir, please. If you could just liste-"

Suddenly the door banged open.  Lilia came in and she looked like she's out of breath.

"Ahh...If it isn't Lilia, who else could it be?" the principal looked at Lilia in disgust.

"Sir, it's not what you think. Mr. Jones is innocent. He does not deserve to be fired."

"Really? State the reason then. Hmm?"

*        *        *

I knew this would happen. What's wrong with him?!! He could've been more careful. And now what? Lilia's in trouble because of him. Geez...I should put my bag at class first.

"Hey, Lia. You okay?" asked Kara.

"Hey. I'm not okay. See you later."

"Is she okay or not?(sigh) This must've been something that happens to Lilia. Wait hold on. Lilia's in trouble?" she then rushed out of the class and catch up with Lia.

"Hey, Lilia's in trouble?"

"Yeah. Well, I think she is."

"I'm coming with you."

"Sure"

Two minutes past and we're in front of Principal Evan's office. (sigh) deep breath.

"I supposed there's something going on?"

"Lia!" the principal look at me in shock.

"Hello. We meet again."

"This is not your  matter. Please leave."

"Not my matter? That girl you're talking to just now is my friend. And let me guess, you want to expel her? I'm not letting you. I DARE NOT TO!!! HAVE YOU EVEVEN BEEN LISTENING WHAT SHE HAVE TO SAY?"

"I-"

"It's true. I look like I'm not the kind of person who have manners right now but I'm not letting you get my friend expelled"

"And so won't I" Kara interrupt.

*        *        *

"By the way, I'm Luke. How about you?"

"Leon"

"cool"

"The principal's office is straight over there. You'll know when you see it. Trust me. Besides, I need to go to my class. See you later."

Then Luke left me. So, straight over there, huh? Oh, the door isn't close! I'm coming in.

"Uhh... sorry to interrupt but is this the principal's office?"

I looked inside the office and I figured that I've just ruined something that I shouldn't. She's there. The girl I met this morning, but why?

"Ahh... you must be Leon. So, ladies, gentleman please leave. We'll continue this matter some other time. I've something to discuss with Leon."

"Not a chance. I'm not letting you go just like that?!!" Luke's sister said to the principal.

"We should go, Lia. Lilia come on." Kara beg her to leave.

"Ughh...fine"

"So, Leon. Take a seat."
