The Lost Melody

Melody 3: Masie Janine Scott II

The next day, she got to school earlier than usual and head directly to Mr. Nuzalos office.

Oh! Good morning my dear Masie. He greeted smiling from ear to ear.

I am accepting the offer. I will run as president for next years student council election. She said heads high with no hesitation. She had already thought of this last night and she finally decided to take it.

Great! I would love to hear the reason behind your sudden decision but I am too busy right now. Dont worry, I will arranged a meeting to orient you and Kiara, your opponent, soon. But for the meantime, you may proceed to your classroom now. Mr. Nuzalo said. She went out of the office and hastily went to her classroom since lasses were already about to start.

Good morning Masie! Where were you from? Ash asked with her overflowing enthusiasm like usual. She was with the other three girls, all of them having the same interested look in their faces.

Hey guy. Uhm .. actually I came from Mr.Nuzalos office and I have some uhmm, some news. But please dont over react. she timidly asked, even quite nervous of how they will react.

What is it? You can tell us anything. Summer said with outmost sincerity. Masie took a deep breath before saying the news.

I am running for the position of President in next years student council election.

Silence filled the spaces between them, astonishment was evident in their faces and as if cue, each blow questions to Masie that she was hard time explaining to her dear friends when, where, how it all happened.

That is so great Masie! Finally, I can skip falling in line every breaktime if ever youll become the president. Heather said with a smug smile on her face.

Right and not only that, but we can also skip classes and it would be much easier with Masie as the president. Ash added.

Oh! And dont forget to implement a law in the school that the 4 friends of the president must be given 100% discount in any purchase they want in the canteen. Even Elliot chimed in. Masie even heard Heather react to what Elliot had ais n a murmuring manner. Luckily, it seems like its only me who noticed it, so I just ignored it.

Talking about free buffet every day. And they all laugh at what Summer said. Masie then slap the forehead of each of her beloved friends but not too hard, and place both of her hands on her hips.

How come you have already come up with all of those schemes when I havent won yet the election. Campaign hasnt even started. And who told you that if ever Ill become the president your duties and responsibilities as a student would already stop. Nothing would change. Masie know that she may look and sound like a mother right now but she doesnt care as long as she can wake this four young friends of hers.

My gosh Masie! Of course we know that. You probably havent encountered the word joke yet. Ash protested and the four of them laugh again. And since Masie knows that theres nothing she can do about the craziness of her friends, she ended up laughing with them. Thats one thing she loves about them anyway.

Just a few minutes later, classes started. The day of the five young ladies went smoothly. Masie was told that their brief orientation about the campaign would be held that afternoon in Mr. Nuzalos office. Honestly, she felt quite nervous. She has known Kiara since they are working together as SC officers only that Kiara has a higher position as the SC treasurer. They talk to each other more or less than often. Theyre friends but not as close as she is to the other SC members. Theres no doubt that they doesnt hate each other, either, they never had this bond to connect them to each other. For whatever reason that is, she also doesnt know why.
