DANIEL P.O.V
That girl is something, i try to open my eyes my friends are surrounding me. The pain gone time by time.
"She is crazy," Hans says and help me to stand.
Cassandra, that b***h, approach me. "Are you okay baby ?" She says like she cares so much to me.
I ignore her and walks to my class. She keep following me. I decide to run, and gone from the crowd. Even though she knows, my destination are only two, classroom or my dad room.
I enter the classroom and all the girls bag weren't there. I look at my hand watch, 11.15 a.m. They have gone home.
"It's funny, you don't angry at her," Tommy says, teasing me. He sits on Beverly places. The girls that dare to fought me back.
"I think i fell in love with her," I say.
All of them drop their jaws, surprise on my statement. "Are you crazy ?" All of them say in unison.
"She is different guys, she is unique," I say and leave them to my dad room. All of them still freezing on their place when i left.
I sprint to my dad room. "A revenge ?" He says directly and laugh at me. "See, karma teach you something again."
"Yes dad," I say obediently. "What do you think about her ?"
"Her ? Beverly ?" He asks. I nod. "She is a good girl, nice, Becca daughter."
I widen my eyes in surprise as he said Becca daughter. She is only thirty years old and she is very nice girl how can she has a daughter like her ?
"You're not kidding me ?" I squeak.
"Why should i ? Well, Becca will be my accounting auditors starts from Monday. Start to talk politely on the phone when you call me, there's no more Becca in there," He says and leave to the restroom.
I shakes my head. I can't stop thinking about that girls even she hurts me, just to give me something to learn.
She doesn't care about her reputation, she is strong, she is different. She is someone i've been looking for so long even she is shortie.
I like how her shoulder length black hair moves every time she walks. I like the smirks on her face. I like how she escape after revenged me.
I like every single thing from her.

I never think minimart will be crowding in Thursday. My shift has finished and i still standing behind the cashier machine. People are queueing to pay.
Standing here longer means extra money.
The other cashier has come. She is late for an hours i leave my places and changes my clothes. I look at my phone, Emma text me.
Emma
Beside high chair, empty place.
I scan my finger on fingerprints scanner before i leave it. I make a chocolate float for myself, not making one for Emma because she has it.
I go to high chair and find her sitting, eating hamburgers with hoodie cover her body and hair. I take my float with me and sit beside her.
"It's okay right to go home a bit late ?" Emma asks. I nod. "We were in the same kindergarten do you remember that ? I'm that lonely kids before you come and play with me."
Her words make my brain work hard flash-backing, i remember that girl. Yeah, i remember.
She grow up, to a beautiful girl, not like me, who turn uglier than ever.
"Yes," I say and embrace her.
"It's been a long time. I know my face changes much," She says. "I've been looking for you, asking each of our old friends and it always lead to you."
"Remember our farewell? I'm crying there," I say. "I thought you move to Sydney ?"
"Yes, but my parents divorce and i'm living with my dad now, in here," She says. "My mom cheat on him. It makes me hate my own mother."
"I know it's hard. I don't even remember my dad tho," I reply, with no sad feelings on me. My heart is cold for my dad, not even a bit of love for him.
"But i'm so proud with you ! No one dare to do something bad to Daniel," She says proudly.
"Yeah and he has lot of lovers. I can't be safe in this school," I say and laugh.
"It's okay, i'm on your back. You will be safe," She says. "Come home with me, come on."
"Sure," I say.
Both of us jump to her car, she still remember my house precisely. I wave to her as i leave the car, running to my house.
"Sorry mom, Emma come to my workplace and we have a small talk," I say, crouch put my shoes on the box.
"We'll move on Saturday," My mom says. I widen my eyes at her. Why so fast ? "Come on, eat your dinner."
A box on pizza on the table. It is an expensive food for us and the most delicious food for me. I eat all of it since it's personal price and go inside my room.
I open the box that Dave Lee gave me. Iphone 7 And MacBooks Air. This is too much but, f**k it, i need this.
My mom enter my room, can't believe she still 30 years old. Yeah, free s*x broke her but i'm beyond grateful she want take care of me.
"You must start packing your things," She says. "Okay, this changes our whole life but we still a piece of s**t compare to Dave Lee."
"He help us too much mom," I say. "I don't know what to say... Is this our luckiness or what."
My mom laugh. "Forget it, start packing your things hurry up. I don't want to hear you left anything here cause my friend rented this house."
I look at her shockingly. "Yeah, we need much money. For eat, electricity bills, wifi bills, water bills. Are you think Dave Lee will pay it all ? Please, he give us too much," my mom say, half rapping.
"Okay mom, okay," I say and start boxing all my things.
In the middle of it, my mom read the text from my phone. "I think Daniel like you. He look at you all the time in class,"
"Forget it mom, it is a random bullshit," I yell.
My mom laugh, "Come on, i already have you when i was your age."
"We're different mom," I yell and continue packing my things. My mom enjoying reading the group chat on my phone.
"Daniel text you dear," My mom say and approach me. She show me my phone with Daniel name pop up on the screen.
"Ah, someone might hacked his phone," I say easily. "Come on mom. He is the most... Ah, forget it."
"Come on tell me," my mom says.
I decide to tell her everything happened on the school for couple days. She is really understand about me. She is like my sister not my mom.
"Well, i can't say anything," my mom say at last and shrug. "Good night dear, don't be late tomorrow. Daniel is waiting for you."
I hold my desire to curse at my mom. See, she like to tease me but i love her so much. My mom has opened the chat, i have no choice but reply Daniel chat.
