Chapter 2

The sun's rays began to provide warmth to all inhabitants of the earth. The boy who was still sleeping began to open his eyes because of the interference from the light that entered from the curtains of his bedroom window.

"I'm tired of all this," he complained.

Who is that boy?

He is Aldrich. He lives alone in a luxury apartment that only millionaires live in.

Aldrich finished his showers and stepped into the walk-in closet. More than 10 sets of uniforms are neatly arranged in there.

Take a set of uniforms and wear them in silence. The uniform fit perfectly to his body. The final touch was a tie he wrapped around his neck.

An elegant black watch was chosen as an accessory as well as a timepiece for him.

As for footwear, a pair of black sneakers became her choice for today. When he looked at his watch that showed 6 o'clock, he immediately grabbed the leather jacket hanging in the closet and rushed to the parking lot of his apartment.

Broom. Broom

The sound of a black sports motorbike sounded loud at the entrance to the school. Every girl's eyes stared at him who was driving the motorcycle.

The whispers of those praising him were familiar to his ears. Yet he remained casual and indifferent.

When he was about to park his motorcycle, a boy stood right where he usually parked his motorcycle. Forced himself to stop on the track.

"Carrington," the boy said. He was still standing there with a calm face.

Who is he?

The only boy who called him Carrington was Vincent Reed.

With his piercing eyes, Aldrich Carrington tried to shove Vincent Reed out of his parking lot.

But Vincent was still there with a wide, ridiculous smile. The students began to gather around and began to look at them with curious faces.

Carrington suddenly lowered the standard of his motorcycle and got off. Without saying a word, he threw the motorcycle keys at Vincent and stepped into the school building without removing his helmet.

As he walked down the hall to his locker, Aldrich heard the girls getting wild at him. They are whispered a lot.

"It's him! Oh, God."

"Even though he's wearing a helmet, I can guess if he's that handsome first A-class student."

"He's like a motorcycle gang member, which makes me love him even more."

"We'll see, I can have him."

That's a small part of their whisper that was heard by Aldrich. He was so tired of all this.

Arriving at the locker, Aldrich took the books he needed and put them in his bag. Suddenly there are 5 men approached him.

One of the men was standing right beside him.

"So... you are the favorite of all the girls of this school?" said the boy. He is a boy with big muscles and tan skin.

From his level of bravery, he looked like the leader of this gang. Whatever the gang, Aldrich didn't want to know.

Without removing his helmet, Aldrich walked past them casually. Suddenly one of them throws the baseball to Aldrich's head which was still hidden behind the helmet.

"Hah!" snorted Aldrich.

With slow-motion, he removed his helmet. Aldrich walked with steady steps towards the gang leader.

'Hugo Stein' A name tag caught his eye.

"Hugo. You better take your friends to leave," said Aldrich.

"I won't leave before ruining your face until the girls stop staring at you," Hugo said confidently.

"I'm telling you. Your plan won't work."

Instantly the man named Hugo grabbed Aldrich's shirt and threw his fists.

bug.

"Hey! What are you doing?!" The teacher who was passing by accidentally saw Aldrich being hit by Hugo.

Hugo let go of his grip and casually walked away from the scene.

"Are you all right, Aldrich?" asked the Teacher.

Aldrich just nodded and headed to class.

"It's not over yet. Hugo," Aldrich muttered then smiled widely.

After joining in in learning activities for up to 6 hours. Finally, the bell rang.

Kriinnnng

Time to go home. Just coming out of class, Aldrich heard the voice of a boy that he had memorized calling him.

"Carrington," he called.

"Once again Vincent—" annoyed Aldrich.

"Whoaaa calm down. I just want to return your key." Vincent raised his hand that held the motorcycle key.

Aldrich immediately grabbed the motorcycle keys from Vincent's hands and walked away.

"I've parked it safely." Vincent followed Aldrich beside him. But Aldrich paid no heed to him at all.

"Hey. Don't you want to thank me?" Vincent teased.

"Where is your house?" Vincent asked. Digging the information from Aldrich.

"Maybe we can go—" Vincent stopped when he saw Aldrich stop.

Aldrich looked ahead with clenched fists. Vincent, who was curious, looked at Aldrich's gaze.

"Oh my God." Vincent stared intently at Aldrich's motorcycle.

The motor now has paint streaks that fill its body. Not only that but the motor body is also filled with severe scratches. Both motorcycle tires had run out of air because the knife had stuck deep there.

Hugo who was leaning on his car looked at Aldrich. They stared at each other for several minutes.

"I can take you home," Vincent offered.

"I don't need it," said Aldrich curtly.

Aldrich did not take his eyes off Hugo. Hugo and his friends left the school with his car. A slight smirk appeared on their lips.

Aldrich calls an online taxi and leaves Vincent.

While in the taxi, Aldrich finds out about Hugo. He easily fiddled with the apps on his cell phone and managed to get to know where Hugo was, who was his friends, family, addresses, and places he hung out.

"We'll meet soon, Hugo. I'll take over the game," Aldrich smiled broadly but the look in his eyes was scaring.
