In a stunning and grand two-storey house in golden yellow. The surroundings of the house are adorned with various beautiful flowers and the space inside the house is also very roomy, both in the front yard and the back yard. At the front fence of the house is the family name of the owners, which is "OCTAV FAMILY HOUSE". The house was home to six people who were members of the Octav family.
Inside the big house, there are many antique furniture imported from both New Zealand and overseas. Emanuel Michael Octav, the head of the family who is in his 50s, comes from New Zealand nobility. His hobby is collecting antiques, willing to spend thousands of dollars to acquire a desired antique, even as small as cat poop, for him it's okay as long as his wish is fulfilled.
Now the eyes turned to a room door that was above, the door of the room was marked with Angela's name, which is the name of the house owner's youngest daughter. The wall in the girl's room was painted the girl's favourite pink colour, it was also quite wide. The condition of the room was very tidy without leaving any dust as if it was cleaned every day. Suddenly the dunny door in the sheila's room swung open as if someone had opened it from the inside, and out popped a figure believed to be Angela, the daughter of the house owner. Yeah, she's Angela, or her full name is Angela Michaela Ziudith Octav. She was currently brushing her long, blonde hair like her old man in front of the makeup mirror. Angela was getting ready for school, humming away happily.
" I dreamt about this day when we were always together...YEAHH!! WELCOME BACK TO SCHOOL!! " Angela said laughing to herself. Meanwhile, her mum who was downstairs called the girl to have breakfast together.
" Angela, hurry on down! We're having brekkie together, " said her mum. Maria Qistina is of Malay descent from both her mum and dad's side. She's married to Emanuel Michael Octav and is a mum of four, including Angela. She's in her 50s, as is her hubby Michael.
" Just a tick mum!! " Angela responded.
" Are you not sorted yet? " Maria asked the girl again.
" I'm nearly sorted, but just a wee bit more, mum " Angela answered.
" Mum's waiting for you in the dining room, aye? Everyone's already sitting there, " Maria said to Angela, then she continued, " Don't be late!!! " This time Angela didn't respond. Hearing no sound coming out of her daughter's mouth, Maria went to the dining room.
The view shifts to a not too small dining room located next to the kitchen, in the dining room there is a large glass window that can show the beautiful green scenery outside. Michael, Maria and their other three children and Michael's younger sister were waiting for Angela there, the chair near the large glass window was deliberately left empty because that was Angela's favourite spot when she was eating while looking at the beautiful scenery outside.
" Good morning everyone!!! " Angela said after leaving her room while sitting in her favourite chair next to her sleeping aunt.
" Good morning too, " Michael and Maria responded to Angela's good morning, as did her stunning sister named Jessica. While the other two brothers just stayed silent as if they didn't hear Angela's greeting. They are Henry and Arjuna Naverio. They were both lost in their own thoughts.
" Wow, the spag bol that Mum cooked looks tastes good! " Angela deliberately praised.
" If it tastes good, scoff it down " Maria reckoned. Just as they were about to tuck in, they heard a noise nearby. They turned to see the woman sleeping next to Angela, her head resting on the dining table. It was Michael's younger sister, Lucille Barbara Octav, who lived with them. In her 40s and still single, she claimed it was because no one wanted her, but truth be told, she was just a bit fussy.
" Why is Aunt Lucille sleeping here? Why doesn't she just sleep in her room? " Angela asked.
" I don't know, mate, " Michael answered Angela's question, then he tried to wake up his youngest sister. " Lucille, wake up! Don't sleep at the dining table! Wake up! " Michael said as he patted Lucille's head, but she still didn't wake up as if she was in a dead sleep. Maria, who saw the behavior of her sister-in-law, felt knackered, so she uttered her stern voice.
" Lucille, wake up right now!!! " Maria said, to which Lucille immediately raised her head.
" What?! " Lucille said, looking fiercely at Maria.
" Oi, wake up mate, don't doze off in front of this kai again, it's not good, " Michael tries to counsel Lucille.
" Shut up, bro, you don't even know what your missus did to me last night. She drained me of all my energy, you know?! She had me doing chores all night until I was ready to pass out! That's why I fell asleep here, I'm knackered! " Lucille complains to Michael about Maria while Maria glares at Lucille as if she wants to jump on Lucille alive.
" How dare you complain to my bloke!! " Maria said.
" That's it, don't have a barney here " Michael tries to stop a scrap between his missus and younger sister that is just about to start. " It's not good to have a tiff in front of kai, let's have brekkie because soon the kids will want to skedaddle " Michael said again.
" Dad is bang on, mum, aunt, don't have a barney, aye? " Jessica, who is Henry's twin, the first twin of Michael and Maria, replied.
After finishing brekkie with her whānau, Angela hooned it to school on foot. She made a conscious decision not to ask her whānau to give her a ride to school because she wanted to have the freedom to walk by herself without being supervised, especially by her mum. Angela can't stand being spied on by her aunt Lucille, who is not only her mum's rival but also a snitch instructed by Maria to keep an eye on Angela's whereabouts at school. Now Angela has made it to school and has safely entered the school grounds.
" Finally I can go back to school!! " Angela said to herself. " But what class am I in? Ah, it's better to look at the noticeboard! " Angela said again, then she went to the noticeboard along the corridor.
When Angela arrived there, she saw heaps of students gathering there. They were all trying to figure out which class their names were on, and it was real noisy. Angela didn't really like seeing that, so she was thinking of how to get the students to bugger off. Then she clicked her fingers like she had an idea. With confidence, she walked towards them.
" Hey everyone, shift over, make room! Important people coming through!! " Angela said as she walked elegantly, with flair and of course, a touch of arrogance.
" I thought who it was, it's apparently this cow!! " said one of the students there to Angela with harsh and somewhat hurtful words, but Angela ignored the female student's words because for Angela, that female student means nothing and is nothing more than rubbish in the school.
" Well that's my name!! " Angela said, then she pushed the sheila who insulted her just now " Step aside, you rotten rubbish!!! " then Angela went to her class and left the sheila who was staring at her angrily with groups of other students.
