[ Let’s date ]
STATION.
The parents of the girl who Giselle saved were already there. They keep thanking her endlessly.
“Thank you very much!”
“Giselle!”
She turned on hearing her name only to see her aunt. “Aunt”she muttered.
“What happened?”Mrs Whitney asked as she checked her body.
“I’m fine aunt, I wasn’t the victim”she said.
“Glad you’re alright, I was very worried when Archie told me what happened”she said and Giselle turned to see Archie. Well she called him when the cops kept saying she call someone.
“I’m really fine”she faced Mrs Whitney.
“I’ll see the cops, Archie take her to the car”she said and walked away.
“I called you so you wouldn’t let aunt know but you did”Giselle said as she walked out with Archie.
“I was gonna ask, how did you get my number?”he asked.
“Aunt gave me, even that of Hazel, Incase there’s an emergency”she said.
“Oh”he muffled as they got in the car.
“Thought you were anger”he said.
“Why? You did something I don’t know about?”she asked.
“No, I just thought so…. about things happening in school…. you know”he said.
“You didn’t do anything to me, instead it’s to the students you bully”she said.
“I….”
He was about replying when Mrs Whitney got in the car and drove off.
“What’s wrong mom?”Archie asked noticing her mood.
“It’s nothing, got angry on one of the cops word, but I’m fine”she said.

NEXT DAY
“The driver would take you all to school”Mrs Whitney said as they finished eating breakfast.
“Bye mom”Archie stood up but Hazel stood up without saying anything.
“I wanna say something aunt”Giselle said.
“Go on”
“Just wanna ask about my dad, I can’t help but think about it”she said and Mrs Whitney smiled.
“You can talk to him once you’re back”Mrs Whitney said.
“Thanks aunt”she said and walked away.
Hazel sat at the front seat so she sat with Archie while the driver drove off.
“Any plan for today?”Archie asked as she tried putting on her earpiece.
“Why?”
“Maybe we can go out or something?”he said.
“No plans but no”she said and he nodded but she ignored him and put on her earpiece.
“You better don’t try anything funny and about the silly threat you tried, I’m not falling for it”Hazel said and she paused on playing a song.
“Silly threat? I’m giving you just tomorrow which is Saturday, I can’t keep staying in the car with you, it’s suffocating”she said and Hazel faced her.
“Wanna use me to buy a car?”
“Nah, a bike”she said.
“Who the hell do you think you are!!”she shouted and that got the driver which made him lose balance so Hazel who already pulled off her seatbelt hit her forehead on the car seat.
“Ouch”
“It’s gonna hurt more if you keep acting wild”Giselle scoffed and finally played the song she wanted, ignoring her.
Hazel hissed hard before putting on her seatbelt.

“Big sis!”Maureen screamed as Giselle came down from the car, she jumped on her immediately.
“Good morning”she pulled away smiling. Giselle only looked at her. Thanks God she had the hoodie cap on, cause she don’t know how to face the stares of people.
“You really don’t have to do this”she whispered but giggling Maureen wasn’t listening.
Hazel scoffed and walked away.
“Here’s my friend Kylie”she introduced.
“Hi senior Giselle”Kylie smiled.
“Hey”she muttered and began walking away but Maureen held her hand.
“I’ll walk you to class”she smiled.
*Geez!!*Giselle screamed inwardly as they walked away.
“Bye big sid”!”Maureen walked away with Kylie and she sighed before walking into the class but Jasper was already waiting for her.
“If you think using my sister for your silly games would help, you better stop it!”he said and she scoffed.
“Games? Stop ranting and tell her to stop talking to me if you don’t like it and moreover, I kind of like her”she said and walked away.
“Sup guys!”Dante walked in. His eyes is quite better now.
“You look more handsome today!”Maggie said.
“Stop making it obvious, but thanks”he winked as he walked to Giselle seat.
“Good morning”he sat on her table.
“What do you want?”she snapped.
“You know, about last night, I kept thinking about it”she said loudly.
“So?”she scoffed.
“Let’s meet again tonight”he winked and stood up. Just as he wanted, he just gave the others a wrong intention.
“What’s that about?”Wyatt asked as he sat down.
“We met yesterday and I just asked how her night was”he smirked.
“You’re seeing her already, wow!”Jasper said.
“Not a crime”he chuckled and looked at Archie to see his reaction but there was non.
“What’s between you two?”Maggie stood in front of him and he laughed with Wyatt.
“What do you think?”
“It’s not what I’m thinking right?”she said angrily.
“Chill baby, we didn’t get engaged so there’s nothing to get possessive of”he said and she walked away in anger.
“Today is Friday, what’s with the plan on Axel?”Jasper asked and he smiled.
“He’s gonna be a father soon”Dante chuckled.

BASKETBALL COURT
Since it’s Friday, it’s known as Stars Highschool clubs day.
Dante came out with the others in the red short and singlet. He was rolling a ball as he walked while Maggie, Daisy and some other girls stood on their cheerleaders outfit.
“Wanna go against me Archie?”Dante winked.
“Stop trying to start a fight”Archie scoffed.
“Fight? I want one”he smirked.
“You think I don’t want one? You’re getting on my nerves recently and I h@të it but I’ll keep cool since we’re friends”Archie said.
“Drop the act and let’s play”Dante smirked.
“Let’s do it, I’ll go be on his team”Wyatt joined Archie.
“Cool man”Dante winked at Jasper.

ROOF TOP.
Axel lay on his back as he stared at the sky though the sun was still out but he still did.
“Dante said you’re gonna be a father today”Giselle said and he sat up to look at her.
“Gi…. Giselle”he shuttered.
“What’s it about? Being a father”she asked.
“No idea”he said.
“I really won’t help today, i don’t wanna make my aunt worry”she said.
“Thanks, I’ll be fine”he said.
“That’s what I always say too”she said.
“Hmm?”
“I once bullied, countless times and to top it up, my crush was part of the bully”she said.
“Oh….”
“But he really did change me, he started finding me attractive and said the only way we’d date is if I stand for myself”she said.
“So did you?”he asked.
“Yes, but he …., Story for another day”she said and he smiled.
“Leave school”she said.
“I can’t….”
“Just for today, I really won’t help”she said.
“But I can’t leave”
“My driver will take you out and I’ll bring up an excuse”she said but he said nothing only staring at something.
“What?”she asked and turned only to see Dante.
“Eyes are on you, you should know that”Dante smirked.
“What’s your plan?”Giselle scoffed.
“Like I said, I thought about it, if you really want him to stop getting bullied, let’s date”he said.
“Date?”she asked.
“Yes, I promise to leave him if you agree”he said.
