Chapter 1

Aizhyrra's Point of View

              

               Frinsc smiled. He is the winner of our flip bottle challenge today.

               "Izen," she said while laughing. Izen just covered her face as Frisnc approached her.

               "W-What's that?" Izen uttered, confused. When Frinsc came closer to her, Frinsc tapped her shoulders gently.

               "You're assigned to do all of my assignments in Math," Frisnc said while laughing loudly. Izen on the other hand sighed of relief, but after few minutes, her eyes widened realizing that subject.

               "Jaicz," Frinsc turned her gaze to Jaicz, beside me.

               "Y-Yes?" Jaicz asked while stuttering.

               "Bring me lunch every day."

               "Excuse me, bitch?" Jaicz exclaimed in annoyance. She doesn't even know how to cook, that explains her reaction.

               "We don't accept complaints in this game, bitch." We all burst in laugher because of Frinsc said.

               Jaicz just nodded her head slowly as she replied. "Fine, I'll slap you with my poisonous food every day."

               My face turned pale when Frinsc looked at me. "And you, Azy, this dare is very special. You always win this game, you always order us around, and it's your time to shine baby," she said before her footsteps swallowed the distance between the two of us.

               "As if I have a choice. Come on, tell me, what is it? I'm always ready for this." I grinned at her playfully.

               "You have to kiss the owner of this school, for 40 seconds." My jaw dropped with what Frinsc said.

               "You mean Trizhor Ailorre ?!" Jaicz said in shock.

               "What?! No! I won't!" I protest immediately.

               "You know what kind of consequences will pay off if you refuse to do it, don't you?" Frinsc teased me. I have no any choice. That's just a kiss. But for pete's sake, it would be my first kiss!

               "But Frinsc." That's all I could say.

               "You have any other complaints?" she asked again. I gritted my teeth harshly then lifted my head to look at her. This manipulative girl! I’ll really give her a hard time as soon as I won again.

               "No ma’am, I’ll do it," I said boldly.

               I immediately roamed my eyes around the school, trying to find Trizhor Ailorre, the owner of this school. I know how cold and ruthless that man is! But the consequences of the game will give me a hard time. I need to do those three girls’ laundry, I have to buy lunch for them everyday.

               I just need to kiss Trizhor, that’s all. He won’t even remember my face after that. He doesn’t care. And I shouldn’t care about it also.

               I bit my lower lip while searching every classroom just to find him. After 30 minutes of finding Trizhor, I went to the rooftop. Luckily, I saw him there. He rested his hand on the metal pole while looking down. This is my chance, he is alone now and there are no other people who can witness this stupidness.

               When he noticed me approaching, he turned his gaze at me causing me to swallow hard. I just closed my hand because I was shaking with nervousness.

               When I was right infront his eyes, I blinked. "S-Sorry." I immediately touched both of his cheeks and kiss him. I counted inside my head while savoring the sweetness of his lips. I was able to reach 20 seconds but I immediately got off from him when I couldn’t breath anymore.

               "Sorry again!" I apologized to him before turning my back. To my surprise, I felt his hand around my arm, stopping me. I quickly diverted my gaze to him once again. “Why?”

               "Park, after school," he said before releasing his grip on me. "I'll be waiting."

               "All r-right,” I uttered before running away from that cold man. I just covered my face in shame. Why did I even do that?! I’m out of words!

               I went back to classroom because the class is about to start. Until now, many thoughts are running across my mind. Can I just lie that I've made it to forty seconds even though it’s only 20 seconds? I don't want to repeat what I did, just in case. But what if they knew? What if it’s too obvious that I just kissed that man for 20 seconds? What will I do? I don't want any consequences!

               I swallowed hard when our teacher has arrived. It’s my favorite subject. Math. I just listened to him as he discuss a few lessons before proceeding to recitation. He wrote a problem on the white board before turning to the whole class. I raised my hand and he pointed at me immediately.

               “Y is equals to MX plus B, Sir,” I said. The professor nodded while smiling.

               "She's correct, you may take your seat," he said. I smiled back as I followed his order.

"Okay class X and Y here is the coordinate, and M is the slope of the line,” he explained. We listened afterwards and when he’s asking something, I immediately raised my hand. The more recitation points, the higher the grades.

              The next teacher came in and discussed again. All about matter. I enjoyed what he taught and said goodbye to us afterwards. The next one is taking a quiz. In surprised, I hurriedly scanned what I reviewed last night that I might have forgotten. Fortunately, I can still remember the lessons. That's good.

                "Okay class, keep your notes," he said so I hid my notebook in the bag hanging in front of me, "When you're done you can go out for a break."

                I easily answered all the questions there because all the ones I reviewed came out. I got up to pass the test paper and went out. I imediately texted my bestfriends, I know they’re at the cafeteria right now.

                When I entered the cafeteria, they were already there. Frisnc is eating a burger, Jaicz is drinking her orange juice and Izen is reading a comic.

                "Where did you go before? You suddenly ran away. We tried to look for you.” I was confused at what Frinsc said.

                "What are you talking about? I did that dare you’re talking about!" I said innocently as I sat down. Jaicz coughed because of what I said.

                "Excuse me, but what?!" Frisnc asked in her surprised tone. I shrugged my shoulders.

                "It's just a joke," she continued, making my eyes widened.

                “Joke?!” I asked in annoyance. They all nodded their heads. "Yes, and now you’re telling us that you did that dare. Meaning, you kissed him?” Izen uttered while grinning.

                "You didn't tell me right away," I said while pouting my lips in disappoinment.

                "We didn't know you would take it seriously," Jaicz said. I just rested my back at the seat.

                "But what happened? You really did it, right?" Jaicz asked curiously so I nodded.

                "Yes but only for twenty seconds." They looked at me, trying to tease me but my mind is full of annoyance and disappointment.

                "That’s freakin’ long," Izen said incredulously.

                "There's also an advantage, what's the feeling?" Frinsc's groan.

                "W-Weird," that's all I could say. We just laughed until the bell rang so I went back to my room. Two more subjects passed, and we went home as well. Ah, finally, my back really hurts from sitting all day.

                "Good bye, class. See you tomorrow. Don't forget homework," our teacher said.                We accompanied him out. My bestfriends were just waiting for me again so we went home together. We just rode inside a taxi. I rested my head on the window as something striked my head. Trizhor told me that he’ll wait for me in the park!

                "Sir, please stop there!" I'm in a hurry. My bestfriends looked at me, confused of my sudden actions. But I’ll just explain it to them later!

                "Wait a minute mother, it's not allowed to stop here!" the driver shouted back. A few more meters away before he parked on the side. I got off immediately before running towards the nearest park on our school.

                When I got there I saw Trizhor who’s about to leave. I immediately ran towards his direction and his body guard.

                "Just wait!" I shouted. He turned his gaze at me as a smirk flashed on his lips. He handed me an envelope.

                "Sign it," he said simply. I just took it and then signed without reading it. I could hardly catch my breath because of the distance I ran. I immediately put the paper I signed in the envelope, and when he took it, he immediately approached me and kissed me on the lips. I was shocked at what he did.

                I pushed him gently. “W-What did you just do?” I uttered.

                He smirked playfully before looking at me intently. "You're mine now, Aizhyrra Brolonde.”
