(chapter six)

"Where did you go?" my father startled me as I step into the house drench but slightly dried. I turn to face my father dress for work, His signature look was a grey pant suit with white shirt and grey matching tie with his low cut hair.

"I went for my morning walk," I finally answered glaring at the vase of flowers.

"Then why are you drench from head to toe?" he asked looking me up and down.

"I went for a swim," I lied quickly, knowning he wouldn't know if I'm lying because he doesn't spend with me anymore. All he cared about was work and making sure my grades were up to standard and appropriate for Harvard University. He didn't care about my dream, he only cares about his.

"Ok," he muttered and push pass me to pick up his briefcase and went out without even saying goodmorning or Have a nice day.

I turn to face Kelly my nanny folding her arms giving me a knowning look. She knows I lie to my dad everytime he ask a question but I couldn't help it. I want to attend Scottland University to further myself in photography and photoshop. But he thought it was stupid and theres no way I could earn money by snapping random pictures of people but he didn't get it especially since mom died. He have distant himself from me his daughter who wanted his support and attention.

"Swimming?" she asked with a genuine smile.

"I fell off the bridge and some guy from school saved me." I explain settling on the stool as Kelly attend to the pot on the stove.

"Some guy?" she question turning swiftly to look at me. If there was one thing I learn about Kelly for sixteen years of my life, she's boy crazy. She adore earing my friends gossiping about the latest cutie they lust after yet she never talk to Mr. Chen, The Bournville Supermarket manager who she keeps chatterring about.

"Kelly, I have to get dress for school, don't wanna be late." I spurt rushing out the kitchen up the stairs to my room.

After my swiftly attempt to get dress and slowly gulping my breakfast. I pick up my binder and book bag head out the door. I got in throwing my books on the passanger seat as my nikon camera caught my attention. I got to stop at Mark today to see if he can fix it or atleast get those photos develop. They were apart of my collage for Scottland University that I have to send of next week. I picked it up, opening the car door flipping the trunk. I pulled out a ziploc bag and place the camera inside before heading to school. I pulled up beside Sibby convertible as Shelly and Ally jump out of her convertible.

We all walk into Ms. Kearn Class to find everyone in their group. I quickly glance down the back to find it empty. Where was he? probably running late.

"please get to your seat Ms. Ferguson." Ms. Kearn blurted out causing me to groan the woman never fails to torture my day. I quickly rush to my seat to sit alone since my the freak wasn't here yet. I still remember the coldness in his eyes as he help from the water, he seems hurt.

"Ok class, I want you all to get started on your project today. while I grade these freshmen papers. please do it quietly." she said before settling back in her chair. I watch as she glance in my direction, checking her watch before starting on the freshmen papers. I started to play absentmindly with my panda bear pendant gazing out in space.

"Thinking about me?" Steven familiar voice sounded beside me as I turn to see Steven in all his glory.

"Your not supposed to be talking to me." I said through gritted teeth as I notica Monica starring daggers at me.

"I know you miss me," he chided cockly.

"Its surprise me that I don't after it was just a tiny lust between us. So if you don't remember you broke up with me over a text which I find really stupid so uncalled for. So if you don't mind I'll like to have peace." I manage to say annoyed.
