No one is on their own

Sometimes we need someone

Sometimes someone else needs us

But more or less everyone needs someone

Even the trees are not on their own

Just like they need soil to have their root

We need someone to base our root too

Just like water is necessary for their growth

We also need someone to nurture us

We can't see them but someone is their to look after you

Because no  one is on their own.

After visiting my Step Uncle and attending the party life was back to normal....

Day's passed by that I never realised it was end of the term

My step uncle had finally met with the people who came for the guardian allowance letter and had a talk with my step Uncle to my relief the meeting was successful and now I am all goo green to my new School....

It will be the last two days of the term in my 11th grade and perhaps my last two days in this city too....because I will be leaving after three days....

Rahul have fortunately became my good friend but I still don't trust him to tell my little secret of being a Millenrai...

It was time for lunch break...as usual I went to sit by far corner and dumped my tray on the table.

I was enjoying my Mayonnaise sandwich when suddenly Rahul came out of nowhere and startled me.

"Boo..! Heya Kiara! " Rahul screamed at my ears which resulted in me getting all startled sandwich falling off my hand and smashed on my tray

Poor sandwich! Giving my last look at it I glared at Rahul.

"What! Now...." I gave him my bored look truly pissed off by him.

"Ow...why so grumpy Kiara....and you will be leaving the day after tomorrow...at least smile for me!"

Immediately listening to that I glanced at him....sadness was filled in his eye I can tell he is going to miss me very well.

"I know Rahul...And I just want to say thanks for being there.... thanks for being my friend" Getting up from my seat I engulfed Rahul in a hug my hands around him

I was trying to hug him but he was very big for my petite frame.

As if seeing me hug him caught him off guard he stiffed but immediately two pair of bulky hands were around me hugging me back

"I am going to miss you too... Kiara".

After a few minutes of hugging we released each other by the time the whole cafeteria was staring at both of us but as usual we don't care.

Rahul sat on the chair next to me and started attacking my food whatever left of it.

"Do you realise Rahul you are eating like a pig" I gave him my disgusting look watching him food raping my meal!

At my words he stopped eating and stared at me for good 30 seconds and after that he shrugged and continued eating....

Well that was so typical of Rahul being....Rahul that boy eats like a beast.

"Well what do you expect me to do Kiara you weren't eating at all! And that was an insult for food and besides you were wasting it so I thought why not help you_Crunch_" and here he takes bite of my smashed mayonnaise sandwich which somehow looks like a poop

Yuck!

"Eww ! you are disgusting I am off now.... I guess I am going to go back to my work....text me if you need me" I said that as I grabbed my bag

Rahul gave me a nod and I walked out of the cafeteria..

It was my usual routine after lunch breaks I mostly skipped my lectures and go to the third floor old chemistry lab no one uses it except a couple of pigeons and me....

As the excitement of going to the new school was going on... I totally forgot about my finance it was true that they were providing me the scholarship but I need to have money to pay rents as there are no hostels out there plus my food, stationary and other expenses is quite making a hole in my pockets so as soon as I got the scholarship letter in the beginning of the year I am trying my best to earn money as I am working as a part time hacker in my own college...how cool is it

Seriously it's not that fun it's like putting your skills in wrong way possible. But money is money and with these horny and possessive self proclaimed alpha males out here they want to always know the whereabouts of their current girlfriend by keeping their social pages and messages in check same goes to the girls they also want to know if their boyfriends are cheating on them or not.....so here comes my role I help them busting out their lovers and let me tell you it's quite entertaining....usually it's simple they come to me with their sad story by telling me about their love life it's mostly the hacking of facebook, instagram, twitter accounts

I take some money to which I give them the user details earning a buck here and there.

Then there are some tricky cases of stalkers.... some comes to me for actual help when their accounts were actually hacked other than me I help them retrieving back their accounts .....Retrieving back their account is the simple part but I guarantee customers to know about their hacker details and whereabouts I basically bust them...There I take extra charges if they want a revenge on them by helping them to make cyber attack on their attackers through social media well that's the fun part...because I don't show any mercy I dig out their deepest secret and reveal them all bare in public that's why I like them it takes pain to retrieve the data but the money I get for it is worth it...

Overall my business is going good I can eventually quit the high school dream and can start my fulltime job as hacker but nope I got better plans.

I opened the old chemistry lab with one of my bobby pins....sometimes the janitor locks the room after cleaning it but no problem I can pick locks....

Don't blame me I lived for a month in streets it's one of the bad habits I picked up from the people out there.

With a click the door opened and I settle out at one of the tables pulling out my laptop and my customary brochure of my hacking service...

Don't laugh it was necessary after all people should know what are the services I am able to provide.

After a few minutes a girl popped her head through the door she seems to be nervous.

"Umm...Hey" she said as she glance at me not sure what to do.

"Heya!"I waved back at her.

"Are you the..... Hacker..Umm Kiara I guess" She said unsure what to say at this situation.

I often noted people are a little shy to approach me as if worried that I will let their secrets slip out.

I give my customer 100 percent guarantee of their secrets I swear to them I won't reveal them to anyone.

"Yes I am so you are here for one of my services so tell me what you want me to hack for you " I gave her my goofy grin and came straight to the business.

She got startled with my bluntness but composed herself.

"Yeah actually I wanted you to hack my boyfriends account I may think he is cheating on me" I glanced at her she looked all sad....I don't want to be the bearer of the bad news as in most of the cases the doubt is always comes true but I ignored it and jumped back to business my first priority is money that's solve.

"Okay good I will do that but there are options in it like I can give you the user details and password and all that...you can checkout his chats yourself or there is a special scheme if you are lazy I can help you to retrieve you his last two months chat history and you can checkout from my see through list..

Then there is another option if you find out he is cheating on you I can help you to have a cyber attack on him basically humiliating him on the social media.

Most of my client takes this combo offer all the three services I can give you a special discount if you want ...so deal?"

She seemed to be shocked with my talking I told you I am blunt and I am doing my business I need money.....so why not?

As if getting out of her trance she looked at me and then nodded.

"Okay deal I will take the offer" She said and immediately a smiled plastered on my face bingo! I hit gold not actually but I will get money.

I handed her a document to fill in some details about her boyfriend and made her sign a letter in which it is stated that I am not going to be one blamed in any circumstances after I give her the details it was necessary because it was obvious I don't want to get caught up in my little act.

I took the form and letter from her and told her that I will email her the details by tomorrow morning.

Great! So that was my first client after two or three more snoopy little clients I decided to call it a day.

I was almost ready to pack my laptop back in my bag but a sudden footstep made me stop in....my work I glanced up and I saw

Three boys entering the room all three tall and intimidating and the very fact the Rocky himself was one of the boys made me hell scared.....It's not usually I am scared of people but this guy was an exception.

"Umm...hey guys....what's the matter why are you here?" I glanced at Rocky and two boys standing beside him I remember one of the guys is Denil from my computer class and the other guy was also standing beside Rocky I don't really know him.

"Anthony can you look after the door...." Rocky said to the boy whom I guess name is Anthony nodded and went back outside the lab's door and shut it from outside

Panic started to built inside my stomach.....I once heard Rocky had been in a same situation with a boy.....the after results were not good as the boy was hospitalized for weeks and forced to change the college.

I immediately gulped and tried to be all confident but what can I do It was three boys versus one girl.....

But mentally I was prepared to give a fight back I am not the one who will just watch these boy kill me......I will die with honour with fighting......

Pishaw!......I sound pathetic but my situation is pathetic.

"What do you want Rocky and what is the meaning of locking the doors...are you going to murder me?" I said that in my cold tone crossing my hands and trying my best to give him my death glare but it all failed he smirked at me..

"Calm down Kiara....we are here to ask for your help"

Help! Bloody hell why he wants my help? and how come The Bad Boy of SC Loius college wants my help!

"Don't play games Rocky just cut the crap and tell me what you want!" I hissed at him...irritated with his riddles and games I was mostly curious to know what he wants from me because I knew it must be important.....or else he wouldn't asked me

"Relax Kitten! " which earned a glare from my side "I know you are all blunt and straight forward so let's stick back to the business..." he arched his one eyebrow up

"We got a proposal for you as we are in need for one of your services" he pointed his fingers to my laptop immediately I realised he is asking me to help him with my hacking skills.

"You want me to hack something for you?!" I questioned to which he nodded.

Immediately my eyes glanced to Denil who was silently standing beside Rocky.

"But why me?! You have your own Hacker friend" pointed out Denil.....to my surprise both Rocky and Denil looked at me wide eye...as if their secret is revealed.

"How do you know I am a hacker I never told anyone it was a secret...." Denil gasped at me at the revelation....I know about his little secrets I also knew he worked for Rocky....in his shitty matters which involves technology....... who better than his childhood friend Denil can help him.

I smiled sheepishly at both of them.

"I Know stuffs....and I know when to speak about these stuffs" It was my time to smirk at them.

"Fine....you know he is a hacker.....cool but it doesn't change that I will not ask you for your help..."Rocky stated agrily pissed off by my intelligence

YES I ADMIT I AM INTELLIGENT!

"Nope....I don't work for you....And I don't want to help you in your shitty little plays!......I don't take risks....helping you would be my mistake"

Ignoring them I started again to pack my things....as if they will let me go.....but one can always try....

"Please....Kiara don't go we really need your help....at least listen to what we say and then decide whether you want to help me or not"

This time Rocky seemed to be all serious....and I really thought of listening to him.

I sat on the wooden chair placing my laptop back on the table

"Ok shoot!" I gave them my go-ahead-and-speak expression.

"Thank god! You listened" with that Rocky and Denil sat on their chairs in front of me.

Rocky stated "Ok...so it goes like this you know our college soccer team.... right?"

"Yup...the Louis Eagles?" I stated as the conversation was going on...

"Right Louis Eagles" Rocky said that excited for an unknown reason.

"So there's a big game coming next season with one of the rival teams.....and we want to desperately want to win the match."

"But how can I help you win the match....I don't even know how to play soccer.." I said truly and utterly confused

"No dimwit we don't want you to play....the matter is a team is not a best team with just good players.... in order to be a good team we need a good coach as well as supplies.....proper kit for the boys" Rocky stated all too very excited with the sport...and why not after all he is the captain of the team.

"So..." I absentmindedly stated "where I come in all these"

"Yes you come in all these....you have one common thing"

"What?"

"The principal" he smirked

"Principal? How is it even possible?" I said that all confused and stared at the two boys sitting in front of me.

Rocky cleared his throat "Ok dude it's where you can continue from..." he said to Denil to continue his part

"Yes so in the middle it comes you....I have heard back three months ago you prank on the principal's computer by hacking his account and sending his photo shopped nude pics to the woman staff in the college"

I grinned at the memories....it was good old days...I was all new...and this principal expelled me for a week as I got into fight with a few girls as result..

I had my revenge on him by messing up with his computer.

"Uh-ha...Yes I did...than how do all of these is related to it."

"It's all related the Principal is the one who decides the budget for the college soccer team....in order to get a new coach we need money to hire him....if you managed to change the budget....it will be all helpful for us" Denil said that ending the conversation.

Now IT HAD clicked me they want me to hack the Principal's office computer.

There was a minute silence in the air as both the boys looked at me expectantly.

I cleared my throat and held my lips in a straight line making it obvious my cold demeanour.

"Tell me one thing Denil....why can't you hack the computer yourself?" Immediately Denil tensed on my words....I was damn sure that I hit some nerves...

"I-I can't" Denil stammered as I can see his aura changed into depression one.

Suddenly as if on cue Rocky interepted and said on behalf of his friend.

"This son of bitch...will never accept this Kiara.....but I want to tell you this principal guy was furious back when you last messed with his pc as a result he installed some hell lot of good security system....which is difficult to break in" Rocky said that and patted on Denil's nervous frame.

"My first choice was always Denil but he failed in breaking through the security system as it involves bank stuff....but now when I realise we need you...So tell me will you be able to hack him?" Rocky finally asked the question he was waiting to ask.

"I will..." Immediately both the boys jumped in the air smiling and fist bumping one another but I cut them...." Only on one condition..."I trailed and both the boys looked at me concentrated on my condition.

"I need money.....and if you willing to pay me extra than only I will help you"

And as I thought Rocky didn't look so happy but Denil said him something and he nodded immediately.

"Ok...will pay you twice your rate...whatever charges you make.."Rocky said that in a monotone.

"Make it thrice and I will work for you." I chirped in my bargain.

As a result it held me a death glare for Rocky.

"NO! I won't pay so much...it's out of question...the deal is set Kiara twice or the deal is gone!" Rocky hissed.

Anger seethed inside my veins and I did which a normal girl should never dare to do...... I yelled at him and slammed my hand on the wooden desk gaining a echoing sound throughout the old lab.

"Fine! The deal is dead!" I hissed "And so would be the Louis eagle when I don't help them...." Immediately Rocky got all hilarious he started to get up from his chair all ready to kick me as I insulted the team he lead.

But immediately Denil held him by his chest and whispered something to him for a while Rocky protested but eventually he gave up.

"Ok than! Thrice you say you get it!" Rocky said but as soon as he said that he came closer to me a fair distance but a lot intimidate

"But if you fail Kiara! Only the gods can help you from my wrath!" With the staggering warning he turned to his heels and left the room Denil trailing behind him not before giving me a sympathy look saying you-are-dead-if-you-didn't-hack.

I didn't realise that I was holding my breath as I signed.

Oh boy what I have got myself into!
