“Take me home….please” she pleaded, still shaking
Wasting no time, Emerald bent and carried her in a bridal style, taking her to his car while Dylan stood clenching his fist
He gently dropped her and wore his coat around her since she was already down with cold
He zoomed off while Dylan turned around feeling dejected

FEW MINUTES LATER~BEAUTY’S ROOM
Emerald stood beside the door with his hand inside his pocket. He should have left since but he didn’t even know why he was still waiting
He let out a smile immediately Mrs Benita faced him
“I wonder what would have happened if you didn’t bring her home. I’m grateful” Mrs Benita said worriedly as she took her gaze off Emerald to Beauty who was laying on the bed with closed eyes
“It’s nothing ma’am” Emerald smiled again
“I just hope she’d be fine before Monday” he said again. This time, he didn’t even know when he voiced it out
Was he really worried?….Absolutely yes!
“She has always been like this whenever it rains and, it really makes me worried sick” Mrs Benita said again causing Emerald to widen his eyes
“Is she suffering from trauma?”he asked himself inwardly
He took one more glance at Beauty before facing Mrs Benita
“It’s late. I think I should be on my way home” he said
“Ohh….of course” Mrs Benita uttered leading Emerald out

SUNDAY EVENING—STORE*
Rover stood beside the store with his hand inside his pocket. It seem like he was waiting for someone
He kept checking his wrist watch from time to time hoping to see her again
“She isn’t gonna come” he groaned with a frown
After waiting for more time, he left
Cora from where she has been hiding stepped out. She took a deep breath trying to calm herself
“I might pass out if I see him again” she breath out and ran off
••
MONDAY MORNING * DINNING
“Mom I’m off” Beauty informed as she took her bag from miss Dolores
“Eat more baby girl”Mrs Benita said entering the dinning
“Mom!“ Beauty groaned
“I’m filled already” she said again
“I’ll miss you” Mrs Benita said giving her a peck on her cheek
“I’ll miss you too but I miss dad the most” Beauty replied causing Mrs Benita to chuckle
She ran out
Walking out of the compound she met Dylan patiently resting on his car which made her widen her eyes in surprise
“Hi” Beauty gulped staring at him while Dylan smiled shyly
“I didn’t know you will be outside” she said again
“I just felt it was cool to wait here” he replied and Beauty nod
“H..how did you know I live here?”
“I just know so, I felt like coming to give you a ride to school” Dylan said causing beauty to blush
“That would be….awesome” Beauty said slowly
They both entered the car and zoomed off
….
EMERALD HIGHSCHOOL*DIAMOND CLASS
“They don’t even fit each other” Emerald scoffed immediately he sighted Beauty and Dylan
“When did you start growing jealousy?” Rover faced him
“Not jealousy but the fact” Emerald replied taking his eyes off them but, he turned back
His eyes trailed Beauty
“Haven’t been seeing more of Ryan, wonder what that dude is up to” Range uttered typing on his phone
“He and Vanilla already reconciled” Rover said bringing out a strawberry lollipop from his pocket
“Dude is in love with out realizing it” Emerald said
“I bet to disagree. He just wants her p**sy” Rover replied while Range laughed
“I’m outta here” Emerald stood up
“Hey! Wait up dude” Rover said running after him while Range chuckle

SCHOOL GARDEN
“I can’t even remember the last time we came here” Amour giggled
“You can’t remember but now we’re here” Pepper said
“Must you always be a vibe killer?” Amour faced her
“I’m not”
“Enough guys. I’m hungry” Sugar pout
“That reminds me…have you made up with Kaden?” Beauty asked
“Nope! Why? I’m gonna ignore him….forever” Sugar scoff
“As if you can do that” Amour replied causing the others to laugh
They all sat on a bench
“Wanna bet with that?”Sugar asked
“Save up your money girlie. I’ll definitely win” Beauty said
“Phewww. I’m hungry” Amour said. Her phone buzzed. A message
Immediately she saw the message her eyes brightened.
“What?” Beauty asked facing her
“He texted!!!” Amour giggled
“Who?”
“Her mister strange boyfriend” Sugar shook her head
“Ohhh” Beauty said with her mouth forming an “O”
“He texted after being offline for days. I’m Füçking happy” Amour jumped
“Now heartbreak won’t suit you if he eventually turns out not to be your spec. You don’t even know how he looks like, you haven’t seen his pictures too” Sugar said
“You need to come back to your senses Amour” Pepper sighed
“Love is blind and….my goodness, he’s already in school” Amour widened her eyes
✉️ Would have told you that I was coming today but changed my mind because I wanted it to be a surprise
Amour read out. She quickly replied back and almost immediately another message popped in
“I’m off. I’m going to meet my boyfriend” Amour ran out
“Flash can’t even run faster than her” Beauty laughed
“Irony” Pepper said.
“I’m off to meet my boo” she added and walked out
“So, I’m the only single one here?” Beauty uttered
“I’m single too” Sugar crossed her arm
“Nope! You’re not. You’ve got Kaden”
“That prick. I’m not even dating him” Sugar scoff
****
Dominic caught sight of Amour running so he became suspicious
“I think I should check on that” he said to Rooney
“I’ll be back” He added, walking away
“I’m waiting for you” Rooney yelled after him
•••
CAFETERIA•
Amour looked around wondering why he decided to meet her in the cafeteria
She stood hoping that it wasn’t a prank being played on her
Standing for some minutes she decided to leave dejectedly but when she turned around, she collided into someone, hitting her head on his chest
“Hi…. I’m the guy you’ve been waiting for”
Sluggishly, she raised her head only for her gaze to meet with that of Range
She moved away from him
“Tell me you’re…not him” Amour stuttered. She couldn’t believe her eyes
“It’s me, the guy you’ve been chatting with online. I didn’t….”
“I’m breaking up with you” Amour cut him short
“I…I don’t want…you” she said as tears left her eyes
She made to leave but Range grabbed her hands
“Amour, please give me a chance. I promise….”
“Let go of me” Amour said harshly
“Amour……”
“She doesn’t want you! You should let go” Dominic said coming in between them
Slowly, Range let go and it was obvious that he got rejected. He got absolutely what he deserved
He had rejected her back then and now, it was her turn to do same
“I h@të you Range. Don’t ever try of showing yourself to my face” Amour said leaving with Dominic
Range watched them as the last word she said struck him to his heart
He actually got rejected.
