Every end of the month, on Monday during the assembly, two students will be chosen and called up to the stage to receive a small trophy. I guess it's pretty obvious that my school's rules is pretty tight, thus, whoever whom performs a good attitude and displays a positive image of themselves will be receiving a small trophy on Monday by the end of each month. By two students, I meant by students that are chosen by the teachers themselves. Just for your acknowledgement, they do observe each and every one of us. They even have cameras around the school.

I was drinking water when the prefect said "Abigail Campbell Xen, please step on stage to receive your trophy for displaying a good image of yourself throughout the month as compared to the rest of the students," I quickly tighten the cap of my bottle and swallowed my water as I proudly walk up the stage. As I was walking, the prefect announced the second person who'll be receiving the trophy and I nearly fall down the stage. "Please put your hands together for Ethan Sheer, who will be stepping up on stage to receive his trophy. Congratulations to both of you."

I couldn't help but stare at him as he receive the trophy while I waited for him beside the stage for the photography session. He grinned at me when he stepped down the stage and said hello to me. I cant actually believe that he got the trophy when he literally slammed the bag in my face and formed a massive bruise on my knee that is now visible. I couldn't help but wonder how on earth can he even win it as I plastered a smile, trying to look as genuine as possible as the cameraman took snaps of us.

I was walking pretty fast back to my class line when I heard him calling me.

"Abigail,"

I spun, "yes?"

"Can you uhm, be in the library after school later? I need to discuss with you about the book sale as Christian has to discuss with his partner as well. Thus, I have to wait for him and I thought that it'll be much better if I spend time discussing with you instead." He said, causing me to get goosebumps from his raspy voice.

"I - I uh - uhm okay. I'll see you."

As Ethan walked pass me, I swear I saw him smirking and winking at me, causing me to melt internally.
