My Rom-Com Story Can't Be That Bad... Right?

Chapter 1

Chapter 1
Anthony's POV

A sunny summer morning ablaze. Sadly, summer has been long and boring. But I'm still hopeful that it won't be like that for long. My aunt wanted me to check out the school she enrolled me in this morning. My aunt, being the music teacher of school, granted me rights to play with the instruments in the music room, while nobody was there.

Quite a lovely perk I would say - to have a music teacher as your aunt. My aunt told me that the music club hasn't been that lively lately, as soon as the president of the club ran for student council and won. Auntie also said that rumor has it that there was also a member of the music club who hung herself to death before she became the music teacher of the school.

"She was probably just messing with me for fun. Ghosts aren't real... Hehe..."

One of the main reasons why she wanted me to go there is that she left her unfinished music sheet that she has to prepare for for her upcoming classes this year. In my head, it was a pain in the ass. But in the end, I thought about it optimistically. Maybe I would find cooler instruments there, and play with some of them for a bit. Before I left, she gave me a warning.

"Never check the left door."

Maybe, she was referencing the horror rumor she gave me earlier.

"Meh. Like I said, Ghosts aren't real..." *convincing sigh of relief*

The school has four main parts:

- Three buildings for the academe that are interconnected to one another - forming a huge letter U if looked from above.

- Overlooking the central part of the building is the sight of the city.

- The central part of the building houses the school library, guidance office, principals office, school director's office, conference hall, and some of the classrooms for special students. The left wing houses the special classes, while the right wing houses the regular classes.

*Special students are high achievers*

- Across the left wing is the the school pool - where everybody takes swimming lessons. The pool is rectangular and huge and is covered by a huge steel fence.

- At each end of the pool is where the changing and showering rooms are - the left side is for the males, and the right side is for the females. The left side is where male students go in, change, and shower. While the right side is where the female students go in, change, and shower.

-The swimming club has been active even on summer time, as students dove in and swam for practice. But they don't really pique my interests. I can't swim, but I do wish I could. I'm too embarrassed to try. I just hope that I wouldn't be forced to join them in our upcoming P.E. classes. Maybe, I could practice when nobody is there.

-Across the open field is the school gate - where everybody enters and exits. The sports center where it includes the gym, the soccer field, and a parking space for the school is found right across the street.

Before I left home, my aunt told me that the music room should be found at the top floor of the left wing of the building. She said I should be able find it if I keep climbing up the stairwell found on the end corner of the left wing. The top floor on the left wing was small compared to the other parts of the building. I was welcomed with two doors and a window in the middle that can only be viewed on and over if you're tall.

The left door looked ugly and old. It was also chained and locked by a padlock. The doorknob was absent and I could peek through a tiny fraction of the room. The inside looked dirty and damp. It looked like a restroom that's not being used. Thinking about what auntie told me earlier gave me the chills.
