I stand in front of the school gate . Its closed , which means that I am late . I look around and see a prefect on duty facing a direction where she can't see me .

"Umm , excuse me ?" I call her . The prefect turns around .

Its Allie . I freeze at my spot . She acts as if theres nobody there .

"Allie ! Can you open the gate ?" I ask .

She ignores me and stares at her notebook . I hesitate . What did I do wrong ? Can't her ego get any further ?

"Allie , can you please open the gate , like , now ?" I ask with my sweetest voice , empathising on the word 'please' .

"Shut . up ," she replies and rolls her eyes . Just then , Mr Brooks appears .

"Prefect ? Why aren't you opening the gate for the girl ?" he asks sternly .

"E-ermm .. sorry , Mr Brooks . I did not notice her . And I predict that she came just one moment ago ?" she tells him , giving a death glare at me .

"Y-yes , Mr Brooks . I came just before you came here ," I nod without hesitation . " Sorry for being late ."

"Its okay . But don't repeat your mistake ," he advises me and leaves the scene .

"Allie , I'm -"

"Look , thanks for helping me , but I'm not going to be best friends with you again , okay ? I have another bestie already . And I forgive you , if thats what you want to hear ." she finally speaks up and goes to her classroom .

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When I arrive , I hear a certain voice .

"Class , when I call your name , come here to collect your Math exam paper , ok ?" Its Miss Gapdelon's sweet voice .

I freeze on the spot . Its Math , the subject that made Allie become angry at me . The subject that made me go bonkers . I take a deep breath , turn the doorknob and enter .

"Oh , Stephanie . Coincidentally , I was just about to call your name ," says Miss Gapdelon .

Oh my , now ? my heart gasps . But I'm not ready yet !

Shut up , heart ! Go and walk there confidently like a peacock , Stephie ! You can do it ! my brain commands .

I strut towards her , my heels making a 'tick-tock' sound . I stand facing her , my eyes wandering around the classroom .

Oh wait , theres Allie ?

"Miss Cooper , don't you want your paper ? Do you want me to tear it into pieces ?" Miss Gapdelon nags .

Tear my paper into pieces ? Does it mean that ... its bad ?

I take the paper to prevent Miss Gapdelon from shouting at me just for a simple action . I fold it into half and go to an unoccupied seat at the most back row .

I rest against my chair and take a little peak . I hope that what my mind predicted is not true and far from a 'B' .

67 marks out of 100 .

I give a sigh of relief . 67 is ... an 'A' ! Is it ?

Oh no , I forgot . I ask Nathan , the one sitting the seat in front of me .

"Hey , whats the 'A' range ? Isn't it 60 to 80 ? Am I right ?"

"Haha , since when ? The 'A' range starts from 75 ," Nathan answers , laughing his head off .

My heart shatters into pieces . Seventy-five ? Oh my ...

And thats what happens at every class I go . Exactly the same . I get a 'B' for three subjects , a 'C' for History and an big fat 'F' at the remaining subjects . No sign of 'A' at all . Plus , theres Allie in every class I went into too . Maybe she's stalking me .

This year's results really dissapoint me . I walk to the place where I put my remaining hopes on - English . Its the last subject of the day . I am quite early so I take a seat at the very back row of the class and relax my thoughts .
