Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Rachael's face turned grim as she looked at the two girls fighting. The other students were not helping as they kept chanting 'Fight, Fight, Fight'.
"I cannot believe they are fighting because of Zack, quite incredible," a girl near Rachael said as the others giggled.
" They are quite stupid competing for Zack love," another person commented as they looked at the fight scene
Rachael whipped her head only to see Zack sitting, a smirk on his lips looking at the two sisters' fight. To him, it was fun playing both of them, and it was so easy.
Like a speed of lightning, Rachael rolled her hands into fists. She walked closer to the two sisters who were holding each other's arms trying to wrestle each other. She stood in between them holding both their hairs, pulling more strands of hair.
They both groaned in pain, as R

HIGH SCHOOL LIFE CHAPTER 9- CLUMSY DAY
Everyone knows the consequences of being around someone you are attracted to, especially as a teenager. The feelings keep knocking, wanting to burst out. You feel strong willpower wanting to make you fall at the person's body. 'Just confess to him. Just confess to her', those voices keep coming in. You feel goosebumps, your voice on a red button when near that person. That feeling feels like a trap when you are around that person. That was exactly the situation Rachael was in as she was near Zack, whose hand gripped hers. He was not ready to let her go sooner. Rachael fell into a daze, her heart thumping as she stared at that intimidating brown eyes of his, with his pink lips looking more pinkish. It was crazy how her mind ran wild even though she had said a few bad words to him in front of the whole class. "Will you let go of my hand Zack?" Rachael questioned, turning her head to face Zack.
HIGH SCHOOL LIFE CHAPTER 10- ZACK'S LETTERS
Joy walked out angrily, trying to get free from Rachael. Rachael keeps telling her that she should not have slapped Maya, as that resulted in her getting into detention. "Hey wait up," Rachael called out as Joy walked toward her locker. Rachael hastened her footsteps as she caught up with Joy. "Okay, I am sorry. I was just guilty because you got into detention for trying to defend me," Rachael begged. Joy heaves a sigh. To her, Rachael was one of the most important people in her life. She looked at her pitiful self, as she began to calm down. She cannot stay mad at her forever. "Do not look at me with those eyes of yours. Next time, avoid taking the blame on yourself," Joy pouted her lips as Rachael smiled. "You almost gave me a heart attack when you slapped Maya. You should have scared her with words, not slap," Rachael stated as she opened her locker
HIGH SCHOOL LIFE CHAPTER 11- INVESTIGATING A SUPPOSED FAKE LIFE
The cafeteria is more like a silent and loud place. While some students stick to table manners and eat their food quietly, others find it difficult to do so. It was break time, after all, a time free of work, and the boring lessons, as well as the interesting ones. Rachael watched as her friends talked about their weekends, a feeling of deja vu based solely on her imaginations. Even though Zack has never made any move since their previous confrontation, Rachael has the gut feeling that Zack is planning up something. Ever since Zack mentioned that he was interested in Joy, she has always been around her friend, especially while they are at school. The thought of Zack finally getting to date Joy has crossed her mind, but she was quick to brush it off. Maybe she was being paranoid, but she could never allow Zack to do something that might disrupt her
HIGH SCHOOL LIFE CHAPTER 12- INVESTIGATING EMMA
Rachael no doubt feels more confident with finding out about who Emma is. Apart from being observant, which was one of her beautiful qualities, she somehow felt the urge to know who she was. She noticed how gracious she was since the beginning of their 12th grade, but her facial expressions show the opposite of what she was. She never wanted to tell anyone about her observations, since there was not enough evidence to back up her thoughts. She was the type that always acts on her gut feelings. Most of the time, these feelings are true. One could think Rachael was the type that was nosy or headstrong, but that was just her personality. She noticed something about Emma and feel she should be investigated. If found guilty, she is not to be mocked, but to be corrected and helped. For some reason, Rachael felt she needed help. - AFTER SCHOOL HOUR
HIGH SCHOOL LIFE CHAPTER 13- THE REAL EMMA
Taking two hats as they placed them on their heads, they decided to act in disguise. Rachael and Joy got down from the car, each one at the different sides of the road. The rich residential road was quite silent with big houses around. They both walked steadily taking small steps as they followed Emma who was taking a quick walk. It looks like she was rushing somewhere. Seeing her walking and not in a big car or great dressing style further increased Rachael's conviction of her gut feelings. Joy's walking pace was weird as she was pressing her phone while walking, with her head slightly bowed. Emma never thought anyone would follow her. It was not more than 8 minutes of trekking before Emma diverted into an alley at the right side of the road. Joy and Rachael took notice as they quickened their pace since they were a few meters away from Emma.
HIGH SCHOOL LIFE CHAPTER 14- TWO CHOICES
Words alone cannot describe the look on Emma's face on seeing two of her classmates. Her mouth slowly drops open, her posture stiff, as sudden dread of coldness took over her. She was bewildered, as she felt her heart had stopped beating, as she stared at them without blinking. It was as if a cold wind went right through her. Yes, Emma. She works in the restaurant, as a part-time waitress. "Look who we have here. If it is not the popular Emma that dresses like a Princess," Joy mocked, as she dropped her snack on the plate gently. Her stare was boring right into Emma, who looks like a petrified rabbit. She could not help but wish the ground swallowed her instantly. Her tongue felt like it was tied, as she turned speechless. On the other hand, Rachael looked rather calm, even though she was surprised to see Emma as a waitr
HIGH SCHOOL LIFE CHAPTER 15- MISTAKES AND FAILURES
With her head low, Emma began walking home, another fifteen minutes journey. She took slow strides as she reflected on Joy's and Rachael's words. A small part of her heart wanting to believe them, while a bigger part telling her to go on living a fake life. One could try to imagine how Emma has been living a fake life right under everyone's nose. It was a thing she referred to as using brains, a lot of research, and thinking for a full-proofed result. Emma was one with good and high moral standing in real life. What she loved most was helping others, especially older ones. On her fake life routine, she was the pompous one that carried herself with high regard, make-up all over her face, giving her the princess slash bad girl remarks. She tried to meditate on how her one little lie led to another, till it became too big to even say the truth. Her ki
HIGH SCHOOL LIFE CHAPTER 16- SYNC
Rachael felt her head almost crumbling out of its place. Phrases alone cannot describe how drowsy, weary, and famished she was. Thanks to the boys, they were able to get to Joy's driver who picked their tired self. Joy could swear she had never been to that part of the United States. She was from a rich family which made her feel more of being indoor or going out on a 30 minutes, or one-hour journey unless it was by airplane. Rachael, on the other hand, is from a middle-class family as she has to depend on her savings, part-time jobs during the weekend, and her mum's sales from her supermarket. She has only been around that area once and that was when she visited her maternal grandmother who passed away while she was sixteen years old.

' Was that the right thing to do?' she asked herself as she waited for her driver, frustration boldly written on her face.She could see some worried expression on Andrew, but she cared less. ' He has so many female admirers and compared to herself, she does not look fit'.She reprimanded herself inwardly when she began feeling her insecurities coming back to life. She draped her face with a handkerchief and felt even more impatient because her driver was not yet around.She sighed, as she looked at her wristwatch, realizing it has been some minutes past the normal time she was supposed to be picked."Joy.

The juniors who entered greeted him politely as he simply nodded, bubbling inside like a happy kid.He decided to have his lunch at the classroom, hoping to see Rachael after school."

He looked across the hall, as his eyes met with that of Rachael.He felt his heartbeat, as he saw the pain in her eyes, maybe it was his imagination. Before he could say a word, Rachael turned away and left.Within a split second, Kevin removed his hand from that of Lydia, ready to make his own decision. He took a step forward, as the noise began reducing."I don't know why you are making a fuss over this unless you want Principal Mullins to detain you all for disturbing the school peace.

It is often said that no matter how you hide something, it will one way or the other be exposed, even if it will be slightly.It can be said that Joy probably made the wrong decision by volunteering to be with Andrew, to help him with moving. It was more like a stance to increase the magnetic strength of her feelings.She helped with moving his stuff to his new apartment. For the first time, Joy complemented Andrew for his nice taste.The apartment had a small sitting room alongside two bedrooms, toilet and bathroom as one, alongside a well-furnished kitchen. The blue imprint on the sides of the living room even made it more beautiful, coupled with the simple furnishings in the mini house."Thinking about something?"
