I felt every single student stare at me as I came to school with Rachel in her yellow porche.

Not only that, I even heard some of them whisper, "Who's that girl?", "She's pretty.", "She's s*xy." etc.

Rachel looped her arm onto mine as we walked through the hallway to our homeroom.

She dragged me to the bench next to smiling Liya and Sophia.

And yes, I forgot about the others and started speaking with those three.

"So, since Keira is out of her assassin dress-up, that means we can finally go shopping." Soph announces happily.

"Girl, you don't know how much I suffered yesterday, I took her to buy some 'important' clothes. So before we reached the store, I told her why don't we check up some more dresses and guys every single dress or shirt she chose were either black or grey. Like... Seriously." Rachel says.

Liya and Soph laughs out loud.

"God... I guess we have to go shopping ALOT, so that this girl can learn from us." Liya says.

"What are you girls talking about." Jack asks and all of us turned around to see 'The Three' enter.

Jack sits next to Sophia and Ryan sits next to Liya.

I saw Zay look at me and sit next to..... me...

Something that never happened.....

For the few day I know him... I never saw him sit next to a girl... not even talk to them. I even learnt that he was never seen with a girl..... EVER.

So why this sudden change.

I heard the students in the class gasp and whisper, more than when they saw me with Rach.

Good Lord.... This is gonna spread like a wildfire.

I thought that it was gonna be so weird around us.

But for some reason, the seven of us started talking random sh*t. Jack started the conversation by talking about their family dog, who suddenly started acting strange.... showering its love towards Jack. He later found out that the dog literally pooped all over his new shoes that her didn't even wear.

"How did you know the dog was acting strange?" Sophia asks.

"'cause animals have some kind of hatred towards him" Ryan says.

"Guess they smell the irritating aura around him." Zay says.

And the conversation went on and Rachel started the story about her dog, who she gave up when it destroyed her entire wardrobe.

Oh, I still remember it. It was when I was twelve years old. Rachel cried for a dog and when she finally got it, she cried for it to be given back to wherever they bought it from.

The only thing was it was only harsh to the Hans. It always licks me lovingly though.

The most weirdest thing was that Zay was casually talking with us, as if he knew us knows us for a long time and Rachel was 'not' ogling at him.

While we were chatting, I saw group of students watching us, taking photo and discussing.

Probably due the new clique.

And I found it shocking that I didn't feel shy or reserved. I was talking too, happily.

Thank you, mom, dad... For being with me.

Our talk was interrupted by the sound of the intercom getting switched on and our principal's voice blasted on its highest volume.

Everyone became quiet, even the spectators standing outside.

"Welcome, students of East International High. Today I am here to announce that the participants from West High are on their way and they will reach the school compound within fifteen minutes. So I wanted to finish this off before they reach.

I want all of you in your best behavior until and unless they provoked you. In other words, don't start a fight unless it was them who started physically or verbally." He says and the class and hallways erupt with laughter.

"Don't stop yourself from bringing justice. That is if you find your weaker schoolmate getting bullied... go and fight them. I will not expel them. Also, there wont be any class today, if you want to study though I wont forbid you, you can meet the respective teacherss and learn from them. The regular classes will only be continuing after the game. That is all for now.... I will meet you all, later. Thank you for your attention." He concludes.

"Does he have some enmity with the West High?" I ask.

"Yeah, he does. Years ago, the brightest student of our school was forced to be expelled even though it was clearly the fault of West High. He was the captain of the team. He was forced not to play too. That was the only time our school lost in both, the race and the game." Ryan says.

"It happened when my dad was here. He was the Vice Captain. Even though the team was strong. They couldn't play well. The principal at that time was Mr. Harrington's father and Mr. Harrington was just a teacher. His father quit after that year and he took over. My dad said that even though they were strong their hearts and mind was not in it." Zay explains.

"Everyone were sad that Daniel was expelled. What was more angering was the fact that the principal clearly said the West High not to tell the news to other, but they announced it ten minutes before the game." Jack says.

"And the legacy continues, they still try to make a problem. Every single year." Zay says, angrily.

Even though I know I had nothing to do with it, for some reason I was becoming angry.

Angry for that person who was expelled.

Like I had some kind-of connection with him.

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

Just like Mr. Harrington said, they arrived fifteen minutes later.

All of us were in cafeteria, when they arrived.

Yes, we were sitting along with Zay.... in the clean and shiny table I mentioned before.

"Heyyy... Zayyy..." I heard an irritating loud voice.

All of us stopped our 'eat and chat session' and looked at the person holding the voice, to find a caked up blonde wearing a cheerleading outfit which spelled West High.

I heard Zay click his tongue and resume eating, as do we.

"So where were we. Oh yes, 'black'. She was literally choosing only black and I was like what the hell." Rachel continues to tell the mall incident to the boys.

Even though I was not looking, I felt the blonde girl's eyes burning.

"Keira, you should literally go and learn the art of shopping from them before you turn to some vampire." Jack says laughing.

I put my tongue out and said, "You should learn to only talk what Ryan and Zay usually talk, before you die as a single virgin." I snap back and Ryan spurts his drink from his mouth to Jack's face.

We erupt in laughter..... so loudly. The loudest was Zay.

Soon the entire cafeteria laughed loudly.

I even heard someone say, "Nice clap-back, Keira." and some encouraging wolf howls.

"Woah, I never knew, you were someone to make Ryan spurt out his juice and Zay laugh." Jack says.

"I should not talk like I used to in front of her." I hear him whisper to himself.

"Hey Zay.... I missed you. Its been long time." The girl says again, louder than before.

I saw Zay starting to become angry. I held his arm under the table to calm him. I don't know why the hell did I think that he would become calm but who cares.... it worked.

How did I know it worked? Well, he looked at me, propped his free hand on the table, kept his face on it and smiled... lovingly.

Yes, lovingly.

I was freaking startled by this sudden gesture.

"So, how are you Zay?" She starts again.

"Is this idiot so delusional... Oye. Can't you see, he doesn't like your presence. Should I tell you how he feels, 'cause I feel the same and so does everyone else." Liya snaps.

"Hmph, with that attitude your never gonna date nor get married." The blonde says.

And that's when I snapped.

"And your never gonna get Zay. Who do you think you are? Can't you see the entire school want to eat with peace and you are a barrier to that. So please take your feet with does not match with the shoes nor the uniform out of our cafeteria." I say.

"Did you know, you just verbally attacked my sister." A blonde guy comes through the door.

"I must say. You. Are. Hot." He says, eye raping me.

"You must be good in bed." His friend says.

Zay gets up from his seat so angrily that the chair fell and slid five feet away. I hold him immediately.

"And what do you think you're doing... huh... you know what let's file a case and see who the judge finds guilty you three or our 'entire school'." I retort.

"You b*tch." I heard the blonde girl say.

"Veronica, Walter... stop." An older guy comes in.

"Sorry, my children troubled you." He says to me.

For some reason, I was staring at him because he looks very familiar.

"But dad... I was just talking to Zay." Veronica says.

"I believe your parents taught you good manner Mr. Thomas. My daughter was just talking to you." He says.

That's when I remembered.

"Mom.... what about this photo? I ask her. We were at the hospital and she was showing me her photos and the stories behind it.

"Oh ... this... This was taken on my first ever business meeting." She says.

"Who's this guy? You and dad doesn't look like you were having fun." I ask.

"He's someone we know, dear. He tried to separate me and your dad on many occasions. He even tried to rape me and - "

"What does rape mean, mom" I ask.

She thinks for sometime before answering, "It's when someone tries to kiss you, when you don't like it or want it.... you will understand when you become an big girl."

"Anyways, since we are on a same line of business, you will meet him someway or the other but listen to me - " she says when I was not paying any attention.

"Listen to me.... Never ever trust this man. He is a bad guy who will do anything to get what he wants. Don't trust even a 'sorry' or 'thank you' from him, because everything that comes out from his mouth is either insincere or is to make you feel down or hurt. Do you understand?" She says.

I nod.

"And I believe you taught you kid well, Mister. They should learn the meaning personal space or we could meet each other at court." I retort finally remembering that despicable face, now that I understood what 'rape' means.

"Isn't this little one having a big mouth. There was only one person who talked back to me and thank god she is no longer alive and here comes another who looks exactly like her." He says.

My blood boiled.

The only one who looks like me is my mother.

"Shut the f*ck up, you rapist. Don't you dare talk about my mother... Don't even think about her with your dirty brain. I will make you pay for what you did." I roared.

I never knew i could be loud.... this was the first time I ever screamed or well... yelled at someone.

And God. The looks in everyone's face was unbelievable.... even Zay.

"Who are- " He tried to ask.

"I know you tried to rape my mom... you must know her, after all you tried to separate them so badly. My mom, Keara Emerald Ross." I interrupt.

I saw his shocked face and someone's plate falling to the floor smashing.

Everyone whipped their head to the one who broke the plate and there stood our guidance counsellor Mr. Ross and our principal Mr Harington. The culprit was Mr. Ross.

Wait..

Mr. David Ross....

Ross???

That my mom's last name. Are they somehow related.

"Scarlet?" I heard Mr.Ross speak.

"Scarlet.... Is that your middle name?" He asks taking steps towards me.

I nod.

"What's your last name?" He asks.

"I don't remember." I reply.

"You mom.... did she have green eyes? And did she wear a necklace having an emerald stone in it?" He asks.

"Yeah... I mean... she always wears that... it was a gift from dad." I reply.

He then starts crying... literally.

"Do- Do you remember me?" He asks.

I look at him, just when I was about to shake my head to answer 'no', I start to remember things....

"Scarlet.... open the door... your uncle is here...." My dad's voice says.

"SCARLET..." He scream.

"Ahhhhh.... UNCLE DAVYYYYYY....." The little me goes and hugs him. He then carries me.

"Where's my ice ceam." I ask

"Oops." He says.

My eyes started to blur with tears.

"U-uncle D-Davy." I say and hugs him as he hugs me back.

Both of us crying in front of the entire student body, as I remembered every single bits and pieces of the memories I have lost.

I remembered everything.

Although, the day was not good a few minutes ago, it turned out to be the best.

Why?

.
.
.

He looks like uncle Davy but have a sturdier body. 'Big bro' is what uncle Davy called him. His eyes were a lighter shade of brown. He always kisses mom, every single day. He tucks me to my bed. He gave me the name 'Scarlet'. He never frowned in front of me.

I finally remember him..... his face.... something I wished to remember so badly.

I got his eye color.

My Dad's.
