The Lost Melody

Melody 1: The Beginning

I checked my Email to see what's up and there it goes a message from an unknown sender and it says.

'Ms. Elliot Thomas:

As one of the student council of batch 2004, You are invited to be one of the people who might be able to help in the preparation of the upcoming reunion, July 15,2016.

Hope you'll be there!

Hold on a sec. Reunion? I was not expecting this! I mean, I know that in every school there is an event wherein alumni gather with food, greetings, music and all but I've never thought I'd be remembered. What a stupid thing to think of.

This is too much for me. I need air! After all these years I've been trying to get my mind off the memories that will never happen again. Memories that I think they've all forgotten. I am in the state that you won't understand.

I need to think. I grab my coat, tie my shoelace and straight out through the door. I think I need to go for a walk. I've realized I've never taken this much air for too long. I felt so contained. But for all of you whose wondering what happened.

Well it all started this way......

3rd day of June on the year 2001 and I was a transferee. I swear to all of you it was never easy. The cool-kid-wannabe's push me around and I felt like I would never ever survive high school. Of all people why me?

One time, the bullying got severe. I even felt like giving up. To people, to myself and to life. I know I shouldn't think that way. I got pushed very hard and got laughed at and left me fall flat on the ground.

I saw this girl. I looked at her hoping that she'll help me. Drop of tears fell on the floor left marks on the ground. Everything turns slow and blurry. I closed my eyes. Then I heard a scream. It was a girl's scream. "STOP!" I looked up. The bully almost throw a huge rock at me. But then this girl gripped the bully's hand tightly as she tries to throw a rock at me. The bully exerted much effort. I don't think the girl could ever handle the bully's weight.

"I swear to God, Olivia Johnsons," The girl yelled at the bully. "If you do not stop this mess, I'm going to break your neck!"

"Oh? Should I be scare-" She screamed in fear when the girl almost hit her by the neck and whispered. "Run!"

The bully ran.

The student surrounding us applauded but the girl didn't mind the attention but instead she held out her hand to help me. How can this girl be so brave?

"Are you alright?" She asked, I hugged her tight. "Thank you, thank you" tears continue to fall. "Thank you so much." I continued sobbing "Hey it's okay," she lifted me up.

"What's your name?" she asked "Elliot Thomas" I hiccupped. "I'm Masie Janine Scott, Pleased to meet you." she held out her hand towards me and I took it.

"Hey do you have someone around to talk to?" She asked. "Not quite actually, I'm new here and that's probably the reason why the bullies made me one of their victims." My tears stopped.

"Well if that's the case," she stopped walking to look at me.

"Ms. Thomas, I am at your service. Nobody will ever hurt you as long as you're with us." She grinned from ear to ear.

"Us?"

"Come here, I'll introduce you to the best people around the camp you'll ever meet." She said cheerfully as she pulls me towards a group of three other girls.

Then the girl I looked at a while ago was there. I smiled at them and looked down. The three walked towards us." You!" The brown-haired with a beautiful tanned skin pointed at me. Confused. "Shall be in fear for I am death. You, shall fear me for I will take you to your life's misery. You shall accept thy consequences for you have seen the darkness in me," She paused and laughed "Gosh girl, you should have seen your face. Nah, I was just kidding. I'm Ashleen by the way." She laughed and we laughed along with her.

"Hello I'm Summer." She's so sweet and her eyes is full of innocence and peace." Introduce yourself Pen" Masie smiled at the girl on the back.

The girl Masie called "pen" rolled her eyes "why would I?"

"Don't be rude Pen, Please? Just introduce yourself." Summer begged. The girl sighed and again with the eye rolling, "Heather."

"Nice to meet you guys, I'm Elliot but you can call me Ellie if you want." Still I faced down as I speak.

They all gathered asking random stuffs about me. Well, I'm still distracted by Heather's treatment towards me. I felt like I've done something wrong. But what is it? I have no Idea. But still I continue to talk to them trying my best to give them all my attention.

Olivia Johnson and the bullies were a blessing in disguise. If it wasn't not for them, I would never be able to meet the people who would change my life forever.

I continue walking down the busy streets of New York. Then all of a sudden, as I looked up, a single snow flake fell upon my cheeks. The air is cold as it brushes off my face. The streets became silent as if I was trapped inside a glass. Then again, the song became clear as if the switches inside my ear shifts into the song.

I wonder what will happen if we meet again soon. The thought of it makes me nervous. What if they've change? What if ... I've changed? Oh, I hate reunions.

So here I am, as I continue walking down the streets , wondering what is happening to all of them. Is here to make all of you understand the reason of my

Lost melody.

"We'll always be together, don't you worry

I'll always be by your side, don't you worry

The circle will never end, just know that we'll meet again

And we'll always be together, forever, always"
