How can a prestine (works for her own sake) girl like me get into a delinquent fighting school made specially for boys of the elite? I undergo through scholarship because my parents left us and I use my salary to pay for my two younger sibling's studies and food. There was no other choice. I've tried to enroll to schools who accept scholarship but unfortunately required extra bills and I have to work extra hours to pay for them (which will lessen my time on studying and I might lose my scholarship due to this). So I ended up in Blakely High, a so-called private school meant solely for the elite which specializes martial arts and fighting events where young brutal teenage boys fight with their lives on the line. It's an all boys school but since it was their anual golden anniversary they decided to changed from a boys only school to a mixed gender school. Being someone who had to spend every moment either working or taking care of my younger brother and sister, I accepted and was granted a full 3-year scholarship regardless of grades. Unfortunately, I was the only girl. A girl surrounded by delinquent and arrogant boys who later on might kick me with one of their flying kicks or whatever upper-cut converse they might think of doing. So I stay quiet. You can say I'm like a rose sprouting from a desert (yeah that's what they call me). No matter how much I want to quit and runaway my life and my sibling's life is at my grades. Grades which hold my future. But after meeting Theo Blakely, the bloody champion of Martial Arts in Blakely High's league (and co-owner of the school), drenching him in soy sauce, calling him a scumbag, and being a witness to see him torture someone when he was drunk...my scholarship could prove fatal.

"You love him" she says taking me in and I look away. "Of course, you love him any girl who experienced what you did would love him" she tells me. I frown is she saying what I think she's saying that I fell in love with him because of the things I got from him. Do I look like some school girl to her? Does she even know who my family is or who I am? I shake my head stepping to her she has no idea who she is dealing with. "Let's get one thing clear nothing he gave me I can't get on my own his money and trinkets don't impress me. I'm not a school girl with a crush who's easily impressed by bright lights I have my own lights I don't need his" I tell her plainly. I look up to find Dimitri standing there watching us his golden-brown eyes taking me in and everything I was trying to fight comes rushing to the surface and tears start forming in my eyes but I dismiss it I am not going to shed a tear over him. ///////// Estella Gooden, she has always been a good girl always there for others helping out where she can; she comes from a loving family who ensured that she and her brother never wanted for anything.
