I smiled to myself and looked up, only to see the mathematics teacher gazing at me. I bowed my head a little and looked elsewhere. The look on almost everyone's faces wasn't too pleasing, some were. And I guess the teacher looked at me because he knew I scored the highest. The over all mark! I heard someone mouthing my name; It was Peter. He thumbed up and I did the same.. Like the teacher has said, after sharing the scripts, he left the classroom. Now the murmuring started. "What's your score Bella?" Francisca beckoned to me.

But this time around, I was only busy with my boyfriend and I was planning to have a french kiss with him. I returned to my room. My heart was still beating really fast, I touched my cheeks, I could feel it reddened and hot. I tossed on my bed as I began to recall the whole scenero, I didn't know that it'll make me so nervous. His simple touch, made it look like we were in a romance mood. I kinda love that feeling though. Somehow, I wish we completed what we've started even if it's just the french kiss and intimate cuddle and maybe the romance. I picked up my phone, hissing at it because it ruined that mood. I've forgotten that I was the one who set the alarm. I smirked and unlocked my phone. I noticed that I have a message. Haven opened it, I found out that it was from my mom. ~'Flora is here. Come say Hi to her tomorrow' It reads. Huh

My heart was racing a little, I was afraid that Vincent might ruin this special day maybe that's why he agreed to come here even when we aren't in good terms. "Hi guys" He said to all of us when he came closer. "Hello, Hi Vincent" We responded back. He smiled widely instead.. "Happy birthday in advance Peter" Vincent stretched his hands towards me for an handshake. I hesitated a little before recieving it.

I touched my cheeks as I could feel it hot and red. Peter was smiling widely too. I wanted him to speak first but right now, I was so shy. Then He coughed in an awkward way then finally said something; "I miss you Bella" "Me too. I miss you" I replied. "Well... obviously. We went through alot. So we didn't have time for us" He said,holding my hand and intertwining it with his. "I'm sorry..." I wanted to apologise again but he interrupted me by placing his finger on my lips and I smiled.

I didn't know where to begin, so I kept mute. He wanted to leave again, so I began to spew out my heart. "Peter I'm sorry. Stop avoiding me and talk to me!" I said and began to cry but he scoffed like he didn't care. "Peter!" I screamed his name. That was when he turned to look at me. "Is it high time we communicate now? No, I don't think so" He smirked.

She started with apologising to the people she has offended, most especially Mrs Benson. Not only does she wanna apologise, she also wanna stay alone in her own lane. She doesn't wanna associate with anyone thereafter. She took a deep breathe in, let them all out before summoning up the courage to knock on the door. Since she didn't get a response at the first knock, she hesitated to knock again. She wanted to leave, she thought they'll resent her but Bella opened the door just when she turned to leave. "Ah...
