The Twist

Chapter 2- The Introductions

§ Third Person's POV §

Ocean Marie Augustus is an ordinary girl with lots of problems for an 17 year old.

Firstly, fake friends pose as her companions. She knows very well that they are fake, that they only use her because she was beautiful and liked among a lot of men, but she still hangs out with them, and sometimes even invites them over, though they give her stupid reasons not to.

She isn't very poor, which is why such people cling onto her like leeches, and ask for money all the time.

The question is, why? Why would she willingly endure and accept them no questions asked?

Because of a certain person she loves?

Because of being way too kind that it isn't good anymore?

Yes, and yes.

She loves this guy, this one guy.

"Al." Ocean managed to say.

She was breathless and happy to see Allan Richard.

"Hey Ocean." Al greeted.

The pair smiled at each other, and then proceeded to talk as they walked each other to class.

Allan's good-looking, smart, kind, and a little too cool. Ocean loves him, everyone but him knew that.

And everyone also knew that another guy loved her too; her best friend, Christian Rosen.  He's similar to Allan in a lot of ways; both attain alluring faces, smartness, and kindness, but he loved Ocean from the start, but ever since the start, Ocean loved Allan, which always struck Christian hard.

Everything has twisted fates, and it doesn't seem to entertain anyone anymore.

§ Ocean's POV §

I took my bag and kissed both of my parents' cheeks.

"I'm going." I told them and they smiled, "Be a good student, Ocean Marie!" Dad reminded me.

I smiled and went outside.

"I've always been, Dad." I whispered to myself with a bitter smile formed on my lips.

I went inside the school bus and immediately searched for Allan, or Chris, but the seats next to them were already occupied. So I looked for Kim and Jessica instead.

I smiled humbly at them and they gave me awkward smiles in response.

I sat beside Jessica.

"Good morning." I greeted.

"Um, I'm so sorry about this, Oshie, but I can't pay you back today, because I paid rent. I promise I'll pay you back someday, but right now, I'm really short in money." Jessica said with fake guilt. I figured.

You used that excuse last Monday, Jessie. I thought, I however smiled at her anyway.

"It's okay, I'll just wait for that tomorrow." I sighed. I think they'll never pay anymore.

I took my cellphone and opened my notepad. I typed,

Jessica didn't pay for the 212th time.

and sighed.

"Oshie, what are you typing again? You always type something whenever I tell you I can't pay yet. Are you keeping record?" Jessie asked, obviously scared.

"No, I'm not." I lied.

They're the only friends I had, containing Chris. I looked over at Chris. Hmm, he seems to enjoy those music he plays on his earphones, yeah?

"Oshie~! Do you like Chris?" Kim teased.

I know you only want Chris to be with me because you want the guys to lose hope in me, but sorry, I only love Chris as a best friend, Kimmy.

"I only like him as a best friend, Kim." I responded and wore earphones and listened to music.

This is the introduction of my life; music is my escape from problems. Music is my escape from my life.
