The Second Encounter

Chapter 7- I want to be your lover

Zion's Pov

Our eyes totally meet but why does she look down just now? Maybe she doesn't remember me because we meet just once and I was the only one staring at her I don't think she even look at me at that time. Let's leave it for now what's important now was to be on top of this entrance exam.

I remember all of her ideal guy's characteristics so maybe she was just shy. Her ideal guy was Rich, smart, kind and handsome. His ideal guy was a CEO of a big company, in short a rich guy that owns his own money, for now I have my own money not as rich as a CEO of a top company but I earn my own money, she also likes a handsome guy so this past month I have been preparing my self all of those beauty product and fashion magazines were my priority last week and I can see the result by the reactions of the girls that I have cross paths this morning.

Being kind was a definition only Rachel can tell if a person is kind in her own perspective so I will leave that to Rachel. The last one is being smart, I have confidence in that one not only that I was a scholar in my college years and receives so many trophies and medals but also for the fact that I was taking this exam for the second time around. I studied so hard these past month just to be sure, she specifically said that her ideal guy is smarter than her so my mission for today was to be the top student for this exam. In my past life Rachel was the top student and representative of our class so there is no other choice other than being the top scorer of this entrance exam.

Speaking of exam being the top was not the only plan that I came up with, this exam will be the trigger for her to help me and from that point we became friends and soon after became best friends. That was a mistake and she found an ideal guy for her when I was her best friend, the title of best friend will never be a good sign for me I have to stop it before it began. To make sure I brought multiple pens today, nothing's going to stop me now to be her loveeeerrr AHA HA HA HA ( a winners laugh ).

*giggles*

"Mr.! at the back the exam just started what's so funny about it? if your not focus on the exam please don't disturb the others who's taking the exam seriously" Mr. Torres scolded me, Mr. Torres never change he was still strict as I remember. I wish Rachel doesn't notice my little laugh earlier.

"I'm really sorry sir, it will never going to happen again and I'm sorry but I was serious about the exam"

"Okay okay I will tolerate it this time but if you repeat it again I will get your exam papers and you may get out of here understand?" Mr. Torres was strict like the other one that I know.

"I understand sir I'm really sorry"

After that the exam resume and ended in a flash. Alfred and I were together now at a coffee shop. I was happy to see that the QR code was slowly taking the market even a coffee shop like this was using it. It may take time for the QR code to replace the paper bills but for now I was just happy that many people will be happy by using our product.

"How did it go?" Alfred asking me about the exam.

"It's okay I guess" I answered him with that but the truth is I'm scared that I didn't surpass Rachel.

"There you go again with that kind of answer"

"It's the truth okay?, there might be 3 to 5 questions that I'm not sure if I got it right or not"

"see? that's not even going to be similar with 'It's okay I guess', how can it just be okay if your unsure answers is ranging only from 3 to 5 are you trying to pick a fight with me?"

"It's okay you will pass the exam for sure"

"Enough with that I will pass the exam if I pass the exam just leave it for tomorrow nothing will change even if I complain now" Alfred said while drinking his coffee.

"Yeah that's right"

"Hey Zion what's with a big smile? did something good happened while I'm not with you?"

"It's nothing ( smile )"

"There must be something, ( grab Zion's cake and acting like he was about to throw it ) spill it!" Alfred said while holding my cake.

"Okay okay I surrender, give me back my strawberry cake"

"okay here ( slowly bring down the cake )"

"I met her today"

"her?....wait you mean"

"yeah, the girl at the bridge we were at the same room for the entrance exam"

"how come your so lucky and I'm not, how I wish I was in a classroom with her"

"Don't be sad you will"

"I will?"

"Yeah, I mean you will pass the exam so there will be a big chance that you and her will be classmates"

"classmates huh, that's not so bad but I promise that I will never betray you Zion just let me enjoy it for now that you and her wasn't dating. How I wish to have a crush on someone too"

"don't worry, I promise I will introduce you to someone"

"really? when? where? to whom?"

"Yeah I keep my promises, but not now there is a perfect time okay" Actually I was talking about Bea, Rachel's best friend that was going to be Alfred's wife in the future.

"Okay I believe in you but what's your relation to this girl is she your cousin or something?"

"No, she's not a relative just trust me on this okay I know what's your type of girl"

I was laughing at my head while thinking about how Bea and Alfred always fight each other when ever they see each other.

"Okay you said it, I trust you Zion"

After that we just enjoy our coffee and go to the company to check everything. Dad was handling the company as my proxy when I was studying for the exam and calls me now and then when he faces problem within the company.

I am not scared to let my father handles the company from time to time because I trust my father and my partners in the company.

One week later

Today was the first day of school and I actually achieve my first goal and that is to be the top scorer in the entrance exam for in coming first year high school. I'm happy achieving that but I totally forgot that the being the representative also means that I am going to do a speech in front of everyone. I was driving on my way to school when I saw Rachel at the side of the road. I want to approach her but how? should I tell her that we meet in the bridge? or should I act like this is the first time we meet each other? *sigh* whatever! I just need to talk to her, it's late and if she wait, there is a big chance that she will be late for school.

I stop the car in front of her and open the window.

"Excuse me that uniform is from our school, what's the problem? why are you still here? the gathering of students is at 7 am your going to be late" I want to tell her to come in but I would look like a sketchy person with a bad motive.

"It's okay the car of my parents overheated so I am waiting for a taxi now"

"If you like, you can come with me. We were going into the same place. Don't worry I am not a bad person I will never do something to you" I did a good job right there am I.

Rachel looks hesitating so pull out a stuff toy at the back seat of my car and bring it to the passenger seat.

"There's no way a bad guy was keeping a cute stuff toy in his car am I right, so will you let me give you a ride?" I slightly laugh with my lame joke but when I saw Rachel smiled at my joke I think it's worth it.

"Okay" Rachel get in and sat on the passenger seat hugging the stuff toy.

"You can keep it if you want"

"Really! thank you"

As long as your happy I can give you as much as you want hehe.
