During the Christmas party, all of them are having fun even Aia. She's saving all the happiest moment for her in that school coz she was about to transfer to another school that's what she have decided so that she wont see Mister Salvador Tamayo all her life as high school student.
After the Christmas party, she still went to school for a week and then she bid farewell to all of her friends and she promised that she'll visit them mostly when her schedule isn't full.
She was emotional while saying goodbye to her friends... her REAL FRIENDS in that school and even her friends became emotional too when she said goodbye to them.
It was a heartbreaking scenario for her to bid them good bye but she knew they will soon see each other again in her cousin's house or in town. Anywhere, she knew that someday they will see each other again.
July 2001
Aia arrived at Zaldiarga College with her mom and her Aunt who were the current Principal in High School department they brought her to the high school building. Nerviously, she slowly walked on the stairs to go to the room on top of the stairs.
The teacher was expecting her, she was the only one who did not wear uniform. She formally introduced herself to her new classmates and the teacher asked the students to introduced themselves as well.
Oliver, her new classmate gave his seat for her and he introduced himself to her first and after that he shooked hands with her.
Oliver Mendez was tall, fair white and handsome. Nakaramdam siya dito ng paghanga and she thought that he's a nice and gentleman. After introducing thereselves to her, they went to their other subject.
Aizane was the first one in the female group and the first person she became friends with. And then there was Aika, Rachel, Arah, Arlyn. It was quite a heart-warming welcome for her. She notice that one of their male classmate was taller than Oliver. But he was quiet and looks like a gangster for her but she cant ignore the attraction she felt for that classmate of hers. But at that time, she was focussing her attention to her studies.
That classmate of hers named Ian Riyuuki Talavera. About six feet and five inches tall, fair complexion with broad shoulders and maybe an abs? chinese eyed and an appeal of a model. No woman can ignore his appeal but she saw loneliness in the chinese eyed guy so he got her curious.
Ian Riyuuki was a half Japanese half Filipino just like her and her cousin Kitaru. But she heard that Ian Riyuuki was courting one of their classmate Jackie that's what according to Aizane.
She felt pitty for Ian cause she found out that Jackie has no feelings towards Ian. That's according to Aizane as well. But this Ian still pursue in courting Jackie. Poor guy, the girl that he fell in love with doesn't love him back. She felt hurt for Ian and mad for Jackie but she doesn't wanna cause trouble in that school. She was afterall a transferee student there.
Few weeks later as she arrived she sees him talking to Jackie. Aia saw her classmate almost beg Jackie to love him back but the girl really was a dumb and numb of how the guy love her so much.
They were outside their next subject. Aia and Aizane are talking with each other as they wait for the other section to come out of the room so that they could start their new lesson. After a while Aia saw Ian Riyuuki went to their next subject first. Without hesitation, Aia followed him inside the classroom. Nervous but she sat down beside Ian and when she looked at their teacher? Mr. Moyano is smilling teasingly to her.
