           The quiet streets of Oak-field City was disrupted by waves of screaming and shrieking.Pedestrians stopped to watch what was happening that caused the chaos.

          They saw a tall figure with a blazing white T-Shirt, shining in the sun. He was strikingly handsome, so that it seemed like the sun was slightly dimmer than him. He was like the bright kind. The kind that would fit in just about any social groups.But right now, his sunglasses were nearly askew, sprinting away from the crazy crowd behind him. They were made of mainly girls, holding up banners and wearing T-Shirts with his photo printed on the back. 

       The boy looked back, gritted his teeth and sprinted forwards.He came to a dead end just as he got away from his frantic fans.He searched around desperately for a way out.Just then, he saw a student, probably the age for high school and had skipped class squatting in the corner with a cigar. His eyes lit up and said"Sorry." With a wicked grin.The student was dazed by that and his cigar fell out of his mouth.The boy stripped off the student's top an said"Thanks bro."After a moment of realisation...F***, how could he be dazed by looking at a guy?! The student thought. Eh? Why does he feel so cold?

       "Feng, get over here in ten minutes, otherwise I'm gonna die."He spoke into the phone and said his location.The voice that belonged to Feng drawled from the other end."I'm off today, remember?"

            "Well, I don't care!"The boy rolled his eyes."You've gotta at least escort me to this new university that you were talking about. You are my agent!" He hung up.At the other side, Feng ruffled his hair and picked up his glasses to make another call for a van.

               At the same time, a girl was standing on the edge of a university block, her hands against the railings. This is me.I am 20 years old and I'm in my third year at my university. My name is Vivian Li. I study Psychology, I try to read people like how I read their lips, but I don't have much success. Since It's only a year until I graduate, I'm trying to find a job. Right now I'm working part-time at a 24/7 working shop as a cashier. 

                I have ear phones plugged in and my school skirt was slightly billowing against the wind. I turned the volume to max, both on my phone and my earphone. It was as if I did that, I would be able to hear the music.I imagine the sound of music. It must be really nice, since everyone around me is always talking about it. Life's hard. I don't have much income. I don't know what I'll do after I graduate.

            The boy had finally, under several protections, reached the university.But as soon as he reached the school gates, he was surrounded again by overjoyed university girls. Don't know exactly where he would go, he ran for the nearest staircase that came in his view. It was spiral and he went up and up...

        "Eh? Where is he" The bewildered fans.

            "Phew...Finally...Got...Away..."  he puffed when he reached the top.It seems that he had reached a roof top. Taking in his surroundings, He muttered"This one is actually ok, at least the scenery is..." His voice drifts away as he spots a figure standing just a few meters away from him. Remembering his fans, he freaked. As he turned around and was about the creep away as soon as possible, he noticed that the girl didn't seem to have seen him.

                Human nature is a strange thing. You don't want people to notice you and yet you would feel unhappy if they just ignored you. And that's exactly how he felt right now."Oy." He said. The girl had no reaction. "Oy, you over there." A little louder this time, he was walking towards her slowly."Can you hear me?" He was nearly right behind her.
