[ Found him ]
NEXT DAY.
Otto was heading to class when he bumped into Kylie.
“I’m so sorry senior”she said and he nodded.
“It’s fine ”
“Your body, how’s it?”she asked.
“I’m fine”he said with a confused face cause they have never talked only bumped on each other.
Kylie began walking away but he stopped her.
“Aren’t you the one Maggie planned on bullying today?”he asked and she slowly nodded.
“Take me to the clinic, I think my hand hurts”he said and she stared at him for a while before holding him by a hand as they walked to the clinic.
Maureen who was about calling Kylie smiled when she saw them.
“She finally talked to him, can’t wait for the full gist”she gushed walking to class when a bottle of chilled drink touched her face.
“Ouch”
“Cute”Wyatt said as he opened it, handling it to her.
“Thanks, Good morning”she smiled as they walked together.
“You look happy”he said.
“Cause I saw you first”she lied.
“Really? You didn’t see your driver?”he chuckled.
“You should have just smiled and wave it off”she said in embarrassment.
“Don’t tell me you’re Blu…..”
“I’m not”she cut in, rushing into her class but he held her hand.
“Be my date for Dante’s grandfather birthday party tomorrow”he said and she blinked twice, looking like a baby while doing that. She slowly smiled and nodded. He left go of her and said….
“Come closer”
“Hm?”
“Just come closer”he said and she took four steps to stand close to him. He moved his face closer to her and her heart beat which made him smile.
“Dress beautifully”he pecked her check and walked away. Maureen stood there, shocked by what he did.
“He just….. he…… pecked…..oh my!”she closed her mouth with her palm, running into the class.

FINLAND.
A CAFE.
Daisy sat down waiting patiently for Miles. He called and asked they meet here.
“He’s late”she muttered, checking her phone for the fifth time.
“Hi”she raised her head to see him. ‘ he’s d@mn handsome ‘
“Hi”she smiled and he sat down.
“I’m sorry I’m late”he said.
“It’s fine, you’re here now”she said.
“Thanks for coming”he said and she nodded. No one talked after that.
“Why did you ask to see me?”she asked slowly.
“I like you”he said without thinking.
“Uhn?”
“What did I say?”
“You like…..”
“Let’s be friends, I like you”he said.
“I’m not ready to date anyone right now”she said.
“We can be friends for now”he said.
“Cool, what should we order?”she asked and he smiled.

NEXT DAY.
CHAIRMAN’S MANSION.
The decorations are already set. Everywhere looking cool and beautiful.
“Father, happy birthday!”Dante’s dad shouted as he walked into the chairman’s room.
“No one is here, so drop the act”he said.
“At least pretending on this day won’t hurt”
“Don’t try it. No day is worth your pretense”he said.
“I hope to see you smile today”Dante’s dad said and walked out, dropping the gift he came with.
The chairman walked to his bed. Picking the photo there. It’s a photo of his first son and grandson. As history was told, his son died in a car accident he was involved with his family, same as his wife but his grandson wasn’t found, either dead nor alive.
“It’s just too hard finding your son. But I promise to keep searching for our Gideon”he shuttered, crying already.

DOWNSTAIRS.
People were already present. Mostly the higher class.
Axel and Sandra came together with the mother in charge of sweet home orphanage. Since Axel attends Stars Highschool, he was privileged to come while Sandra represents a child from the orphanage since the chairman is the top most provider to them.
“Money is just too sweet”Sandra gushed beside Axel who was just with a straight face. He had a rough day today since Dante had it on on him. His face was pushed deep into a big bowl of water and then brought out again. It was done for twenty times, each one of then taking turns. Just Wyatt who wasn’t among. Archie was part same as Jasper but he only watch.
“Have you met the chairman?”Sandra asked as they sat down.
“Not close to having a handshake”he said.
“I had an handshake with him once, he’s nice though”she said.
“His grandson isn’t”he said.
“Exactly, maybe he’s not his blood”she laughed.
More and more people kept coming until Otto finally joined them.
“Hi Otto!”Sandra smiled and he returned it.
“You look stunning”he said and she blushed.
“Stop making her scream inwardly”Axel scoffed and she frowned.
“Don’t let him get to you, you look stunning”he said and she smiled.
“Thanks, and the gift, I brought it”she dropped a small box in front of him.
“What’s it?”he smiled as he opened it.
“A watch, I love it”he smiled and she also did.
*
“Stop staring if it hurts”Maureen said beside Kylie who has been looking at Otto since he came.
“It’s nothing”she said.
“Always not wanting to admit”Maureen scoffed before picking her phone but someone’s breath on her neck made her drop it.
“You’re just too pretty even from your backside”Wyatt whispered and she shivered. He has great effect on her.
Wyatt sat down, smiling as if he didn’t just do something now.
“Hi senior”Kylie said.
“It’s Wyatt”he smiled at her, using an eye to stare at Maureen who’s still catching her breath.
“Wyatt”she said and he nodded, winking at Maureen who looked away.
*
“Don’t tell me Wyatt has a thing for her?”Tess said from the table. she’s with the others, including Dante.
“It looks like he was expecting Daisy to cheat”Hazel scoffed.
“You’re gonna agree to it?”Maggie looked at Jasper but he said nothing.
“Why wouldn’t he? Not like Wyatt is bad or something”Tess said and Jasper stood up walking away.
Finally, the chairman appeared.
“I wanna make today more special”Dante smirked.
“What are you thinking?”Maggie asked.
“It’ll be more fun If you watch”he stood up.
Applaud was given as the chairman stood on stage.
“Thanks to everyone present, thanks for sparing time to attend”he said.
“It’s my….”he continued.

A PASSAGE.
Jasper is with Maureen and they’re both staring daggeredly at each other.
“Tell me what you wanna say”she said.
“Stop what you’re doing with Wyatt, it won’t work”he said.
“Listen brother. Wyatt changed and I like him more for that and if you still think bullying the innocent for Rose who didn’t ask for it will help then you’re wrong”she said.
“Don’t bring her up”he said.
“Hear it once and for all and believe it!”she shouted and walked away.
Jasper stood there and for the first time, he let the tears out.
Rose was his girlfriend, they knew each other since childhood. Well, he didn’t live with his parents, instead he stayed with his grandparents. He attended different school from her without knowing she gets bullied daily. Whenever he asks her about the bruises she had, she’d lie she had a fall or something until finally she got into coma but didn’t make it and died. Then he found the truth but he could do nothing to bring her back. He came back home and since then, he has been a loner.
He wiped his tears before walking back into the hall.
Just in time, the chairman was about cutting the cake but then Dante dragged Axel unexpectedly to the cake pushing his face into it.
“Woah!!”
“What did you just do!”shouted his grandfather.
“Axel!”Sandra, Otto and Maureen shouted, rushing to them.
“My birthday present”Dante smirked. Sandra who was next to him lost it immediately he smirked. She slapped him on the check before pushing his face into the cake then she pushed him down.
“Don’t you dare think of hurting him ever again!!”she shouted.
By now, Axel’s face was already cleared, tears already on his face.
‘ why me? ‘
“Let’s leave”Sandra held him but another hand held his other hand. Turning to see who it was, it’s the chairman.
“Gideon”he shuttered, also in tears.
“Please let go of him”Sandra tried taking his hand off Axel but he held it tight.
“I can never forget my grandson’s face. You’re my Gideon”he said and the hall became silent. Off course everyone knows he lost him son and grandson.
Sandra’s hand slowly let go of his, looking at Axel and then him.
Dante’s father had a shocked face on too.
“You’re my lost grandson, Gideon”he said again.
TBC.
