Go and Join Axel in the car, I will be there in few minutes too... Amelia told Arnold and tried heading back in to the house.

Why are you sending me off? We should leave together, we are already late Amelia... he snapped

Yeah I know. You know what? I forgot my diary at the dinning last night, I need to get it before anyone else could.

Now stop questioning me and go. I will be back shortly. She answered and ran off.

What the hell are you doing with my diary?? She questioned as she saw a maid tried leaving with it.

Sorry ma'am, I didn't know it was yours, I saw it at the dinning while cleaning the table. So I thought of keeping it safe. I never knew that you left it there.. the maid immediately explained

Give it here..... now listen to me; when next you see things that doesn't belong to you, you must not touch it.. understood??

Yes ma'am I won't touch it... the maid replied and Amelia simply walked away. It was her luck that she got there on time.

After satisfying herself about the safety of the diary where she kept it, Amelia left the room and coincidentally bumped into Mrs Lee.

I thought you left for school already, why are you still at home?? Says by an early fiftieth woman standing on the way, With her hands by her side.

Mrs Lee who happens to be the head of all their caretakers and whom they consider their Aunty, cause of how long she's been living with them asked Amelia as she bumped into her.

Aunt I came to return my diary, but I am leaving now Bye.. she rushed her words and left hurriedly.

**********

The driving to school seems tensed as always, since they always have to drop Arnold and Axel first before finally dropping Amelia.

Luck ran out of their way as they bumped into traffic on their way to drop Amelia, Amelia feels frustrated having to adapt to the fact that she would have to face the wrath of the school Monitor once again.

She had sworn not to ever make herself his scape goat anymore and now knowing that she will be facing another punishment from him disorganized her system.

If not for the diary, well it's a good thing she went back to get it. Who knows what that maid would have done to it? Probably reading it and found out about all her privacy.

Obviously that won't be good for her or anyone else...

WE ARE ALREADY IN YOUR SCHOOL MA'AM..the driver said and jolted her out of her thought.

SORRY..... I meant to say Thank you...She immediately corrected her words.

PLEASE come pick me up Early after school, so we can pick my brothers too, I won't want them waiting for us like yesterday... she said before leaving the car.

Amelia matched towards her class l, avoiding the stare from the students. She unknowingly collided with MINA.

Don't tell me you've been here waiting for me?.... Amelia doubtfully asked

Who else will I be waiting for? I can't believe it that you still have the gut to arrive late to school. Says by Mina

After everything you faced with the Monitor yesterday Amelia... Mina said and gave her side hug since Amelia hasn't given her the chance to even say HI.

You should also know that I can't be coming here late to school out of my own wish, at least not when I know what that monster is capable of doing to me.

We had to drop my brothers and while returning here. Traffic made everything worse, Everything is not my doing.... She explained hoping for Mina to believe her.

Well.. maybe I am not the right person that needs this explanation, just save it for the monitor because he asked of you earlier. I'm sure he's already waiting for you .. Mina simply said and Amelia rubbed her forehead.

I knew it.... That little devil... I can only hope for the punishment not to be severe... only God knows what he wants from me.... She said worriedly

Definitely you are also aware of what he wants from you.. maybe you are just too hard to give him and now you are bearing the consequences.. mina teased her

Not today again Mina, at least you shouldn't start now... I will go and see him just tell me where he is... Amelia requested trying to avoid the gaze she's getting from the students. Probably because she was carrying her school bag with her.

I saw him at the boy's quarter, you can go check him there while I help with your bag . Mina replied

Yeah thanks.... Amelia said and gave her the bag then they parted ways.

It's improper going to the boy's quarter but what will she do? Her so called school monitor is in there.

Roaming her eyes around in the building In search of Brad. She saw him in an improper way with a girl at the end of the building kissing.

Gosh!! She hate this sight she's looking at right now.... She sluggishly walked up to him, making some loud sounds with the way she was walking and that made Brad to notice her presence.

He reluctantly stopped whatever he was doing with the girl and when he stood apart from the girl, Amelia finally saw the girl's face and her mouth dropped.

Isn't that the new girl that got transferred here last week?? And she's here with Brad today ... thought she was among the girls who he punished last week.

Well maybe she shouldn't be surprised. If you want to escape the monitor's bullying you must give in to whatever he requested, it's obvious that was what the lady did .....

Go away from here binta,I will send for you later... he said and after adjusting her dress the lady left with Amelia's eyes going out with her..

SHE WASN'T EVEN EMBARRASSED THAT I SAW HER THIS WAY... Amelia thought in her mind before returning her eyes back to him.

Brad kept quiet with his eyes just coldly staring at Amelia, after meeting up with his gaze once Amelia stopped trying to look at his direction. How much she hates seeing this face!!

She's genuinely getting uncomfortable with how he's been staring at her, he cleared his throat and made some fast moves towards her.

I warned you to stop seeking for my attention didn't I? He asked coldly with his alcohol breathe filling Amelia's nostril. If only she could step away from him.

I didn't seek for your attention monitor, I only came late to school... Amelia said sternly.

I'm impressed with how you just replied me, seems you've grown wings now. That's the reason for your stubbornness. He coldly said but Amelia kept mute any way. It's obvious that she won't be spared.

I won't step out of here before giving you the punishment that you deserve... look properly at this quarter. Henceforth I want you to be the one arranging every single thing in here every morning. And you should only stop doing so when I spare you... he commanded coldly making Amelia to wonder if she heard the right word.

There are workers that are responsible for taking care of this things, why should I be doing it for them?

I'm a student and it's not my job... this place is meant for only boys, I don't have any right to be entering here.. she angrily said and Brad started walking towards the Exit.

I'm totally daring you not to be here arranging things tommorow morning girl .. he coldly said and finally left.

Thinking about everything that just happened Amelia angrily threw her butt on the chair...

F*CK THE DAY THAT SHE MET HIM.. must he always be so hard on her?? She looked around the quarter and yelled.. I CAN'T DO THIS!!!

No!! I can't do that. I'm going to see the principal right now, he can't just tell me to do just Everything he says, Mina I came here to study and learn just like every other students.

He can't just be bullying me because I rejected him, I'm tired of tolerating him Mina, I seriously need to speak with the principal about this. So please can you stop telling me not to go... AMELIA talked her anger out as she increased her steps.

Alright... I understand you, but tell me what complain are you going to lay when you get there? Mina asked and tried meeting up with her since Amelia wouldn't stop jumping.

Quiet simple.. I will tell Everything, expecially how Brad has been bullying me because I rejected him.. she answered bravely

Well that's a nice point.. so tell me how you will explain about attending the school during late hours to the principal? Mina questioned and Amelia's body got weakened

I need an answer, I'm not going to stop you from going just answer me. Like you can't just get there and just start telling him about bullying.

I'm sure he would send for Brad, explanation will take place and then the principal will find out about how you've been adament on not abiding by one of the school rules.

I'm sure that's how you wanted it right? She asked and was finally able to see the weakness that her word did to Amelia through her facial expression.

I didn't think about all that.. I was just tired of Brad's nuisance that I feel like getting rid of him right away... she yelled the last part amidst gritted teeth, just then she stopped walking.

I know... come let's sit here... Mina suggested and they both sat down on a sofa close by.

I'm aware of how you feel but things can't be done like that... Mina said

How can it be done? I'm tired and seriously I wish I could tell My dad about everything but I don't want to get him worked up.. Amelia tiredly said

You should learn how to be strong, bullying is a thing that happens in all schools, I would have suggested transferring but it's not a good idea. Don't worry.

I will help you in doing some of the punishment that he gave you... Mina said nervously

No you shouldn't, if he finds out it can implicate you.. Amelia anxiously said

I know and that's why I will be careful so he won't find out. I just don't like how you've ruined your mood because of Brad... You are not alone in this, I'm here and we will go through it together, Friends are there to help each other anyday anytime... Mina assured

Thanks Mina, if it wasn't for you I would have put myself into unplanned trouble... Amelia held her hand and said

Yeah I know, that's how to show you that I am still older here... I think we should return back to class. I don't want the teacher to start the lecture before us... Mina said and they both left together for class.

*************

Ma'am the children are back from school and they are on their way into the house...Mrs Lee reported to Mr and Mrs Martin who just surprisingly got back from traveling.

Thanks Mrs Lee, Sweetheart let's go upstairs, they shouldn't meet us here. Please don't give them the hint that we are around, I want it as a surprise.. Mrs Martin turned to Mrs Lee and said before leaving with her husband.

************

Amelia you won't believe what Happened in my school today, most expecially my class even if I tell you.. Arnold said and dropped himself on the couch.

I wonder what happened! Amelia answered trying to pick interest in what Arnold was talking about.

They transferred our previous mathematics teacher that I told you about, and guess what's annoying me in everything?

I don't know, maybe you are not happy they took your favorite teacher away... Amelia answered finally able to pick interest in the discussion.

Yes that's among but they replaced him with an old woman who uses glasses. She looks like gurus but I don't think she's one.

Apart from being a disability, I meant she was leaping while she walked And...

Axel switch on the Air condition, it's hot in here... Amelia interrupted him.

She looks weird when she wanted to introduce herself. What a wicked voice I have heard from her... Arnold explained like a lady and got Amelia laughing.

So you are talking about a woman you just met today like that.. come on Arnold, you should get used to her. I'm sure she will have something good to offer after everything.. Amelia suggested and tried encouraging him.

Well I don't think she will have something special to offer. What I'm sure of is that she can't be good like Mr James, because he was the best teacher.... And now that he's gone.. just how much I wished that Dad would get me a home nanny like a teacher.

It would be alot easier to cope with Mr James absence and this new old woman called teacher, I really don't think I can cope with her... He explained sadly

So is that why you are decided to sit overhere and discuss about it without eating or resting after school?? Their parents said together and came out of their hidden place..

Dad;;; mum!!! They all called and ran to meet them.

Hey ...be careful... we are on the stairs... Mrs Martin cautioned.

***AT NIGHT***

So children I got a week vacation from work and then spoke with your mom's boss to give her a week leave and he agreed. Then we both planned a surprise of coming home without telling you all except from Mrs Lee.. and that's how we got home when no one expected us to. Mr Martin explained

Wow!! Dad you and Mom knows how to plan a surprise.... Axel coed before eating out of his cookies.

Yes and that makes me and your mom a what??

A genius.... The children screamed happily followed my giggles from everyone.

Dear Amelia's diary,

I wish I could be taking you to school with me diary, you know I was scared when I saw the maid touching you in the morning. She almost found out about everything I have told you.

It's a good thing I took you from her on time, should I tell you something diary? Well today I got to school late as usual and you know that beast I always tell you about?

The school Monitor, He gave me another killing punishment. And now diary I am to start arranging things at the boy's quarter everyday. All thanks to Brad , can you also sense how annoy he is?

Let's forget about Brad, you should also remember me telling you about my close friend at school! Who bears Mina. Today she offered to help during the punishment and thank Goodness I have Mina.

Imagine how I would have done all the arrangings alone. But I'm wondering about something diary, Do you think I should inform Dad about everything? You know I asked Mina but she couldn't give me better advice...

Then I thought about asking you, do you have any perfect saviour plan for me?

Seems I have many things to tell you today. Guess what diary, my parents are back today and they are taking us on picnic tommorow. It guess it will all be fun.

Also I read a book last night and it was talking about what I don't understand. It was talking about FINDING LOVE IN PRINCE CHARMING. ..

Diary, what does that words mean? I have tried moving deep into the topic but I still didn't get what they talked about him.

Although the book gave me brief discussion about prince charming but I doubted if love can be found in The prince charming.

The description has something similar to Brad, because he's cute and charming, but seeing how Brad interact with girls, I doubted if he's showing love. Because Brad is actually confused being.

So if the true definition about PRINCE CHARMING has to do with someone like Brad then that's not An important Love. Or what do you think? Im thinking that I should just let the topic slide.. it's not that important.

Don't you think I should go to bed now diary since I will be having many work to do tomorrow, and I can't even tell my parents about the punishment, MY MYSTERY.

Please keep my secret with you safe, it shouldn't get licked.

GOODNIGHT AMELIA'S DIARY.

Amelia finished writing in the diary and kept the Diary under her pillow before finding herself some sleep.

***THE NEXT DAY***

The stare got addictive, it seems nothing will be able to stop it. Tears streamed down the image. The desperate tension of changing things, That huge tension of turning things positively around.

Peace of mind that craved for the sight of peace, Fragile heart tearing apart. A shattered being. Everything seems like a mystery.

Tears threatened to fall once more, the strength tried leaving. The best explanation is that life is being unfair.

I thought you promised not to get the glance of this image anymore? Damon asked as he entered the room.

I said I won't get the glance, I didn't promise not to stare at it... he replied instantly without sparing Damon a glance.

Why are you changing the promise you made? This is not fair.. Damon insinuated and dropped the things he went out to get.

What's all this? Have you been crying since I left? He asked tiredly but no answer came anyway. All his attention is on that COMFORT he's staring at in his hand.

You shouldn't be acting like this for Goodness sake... you are aware that your sanity is at stake here... Damon said worriedly and tried taking the image from him..

So what about my heart? Is that also not at stake? You should know I don't care about sane anymore. This is where my sanity is, now can you stop trying to collect my Comfort... He complained bitterly

But she's dead, she has died and can't be brought back to life. You saw her corpse when you didn't want to believe.

You confirmed her dead, so why are you doing this to yourself? Damon coaxed and started arranging what he brought.

I LOVE HER.. She was my first love... I find it hard believing it that she's dead Damon. I feel she will come back to me one day. I love her and I miss her... He sniffed and tried taking in his tears

Listen Dean, I'm aware that you loved her...

I still love her Damon, don't make it seems like a past tense... He snapped

It's okay... you love her, but she didn't even know that you love her and you couldn't tell her also before she died... He said trying to watch his words.

That was the expensive mistake of my life, I should have told her and left my dignity behind me.

She loves me Damon, she was inlove with me too, and things would have worked out well between us because we were both inlove.

I don't think I have another way of telling you to stop thinking all that, she never mentioned loving you because she had a boyfriend. And you should remember how she maintained the relationship you both had...

I saw it in her diary... Dean muttered

Excuse me? Damon scoffed

I was able to read it secretly in her diary, that was when I found out about how she felt about me. Even when she always acted like she doesn't love me.

She told her diary how it kills her when she's looking at me but couldn't tell me her emotion, just because of that her useless boyfriend... He explained with his eyes fixed on the picture in his hand.

I'm sorry I talked like that earlier, you never told me about that.. But still yet Dean, the truth still remain the same. You have to stop thinking about her... Damon insisted

So what should I do with my love for her? Should I forget that too? He stated you

It can't be forgotten but you can do well by Reducing the feeling of her love in you.. there are many girls out there that want you... you shouldn't harm your health, take care of your health cause you can still get another girl... Damon explained sounding confusing enough.

None of them can get my attention like FLORA.. Dean answered coldly followed by an eye roll.

***********

I need to get home as early as I can to prepare for the picnic... Amelia voiced out

I hope to hear the news about it later, well that's if you don't block my ear before then with your gibbering words... Mina joked as they walked side by side to the car park.

You speak about rubbish Everytime Mina, well I think I should tell you this...

I saw that new girl with Brad yesterday at the boy's quarter. Do you think that she's going out with him already? Amelia asked trying to change the topic.

I don't have idea, but if she was with him then definitely something is going on between them... Gosh!!! What a prince charming.. Mina yelled leaving behind what they were discussing about and continued staring at Alfred as he was heading to his car.

Don't tell me you are drooling over Alfred now.. Amelia asked trying not to roll her eyes.

Is your eyes paining you now? It's obvious that I am... she replied and got a hit on her arm.

What was that for? She yelped because the hit really got into her

You shouldn't reply me in such way again, if you don't want another hit on your cheek next time... Amelia commanded

It's weird seeing how you are trying to act like a senior here... Mina scoffed and waved at Alfred who didn't even know she was there.

That was painful... Amelia teased and ran off.

Wait for me you fool.... I'm killing you today... Mina shouted and ran after her.
