“Were you sh0t in the head?” Arizona glared.
” I’m not sure” he replied and left the office, Chrissy followed him Immediately.
Arizona squee-zed the flyer on her palm and Yang quic-kly left the office.
“He c@m£ here to give me a flyer?” She muttered in disappointment.
She looked at the flyer in her hand and suddenly noticed something was written behind it.
She unwra-pped it and saw SORRY at the back of it.
She breathed ha-rd , calming down.
“He did it” she sighed.
She smiled shortly and sat.
She started working on her l@pt©p very fast and for over two hours, she didn’t look up or stand.
She finally finished up and stood, she stretched and took her phone.
She dialled a number.
“Two cu-p noodles and…soju, that’s all” she ordered and sat after dropping the call.
” Let’s eat and watch some movie” she smiled.
She took the flyer and looked at the SORRY again.
“Should I try out the restaurant?, H_HEY restaurant, not bad” she smiled.
She went to her changing room and put on a simple dress and sli-p-on shoes.
She c@m£ back and fell on one of the couches then got the remote.
She put on the TV and g@sped.
“The sound of magic!”
She sat comfortably and watched with interest.
” No r0m@nç£, but still manageable” she said, wanting to eat popcorn but she noticed there’s no popcorn.
“aish!, Ming!”
Ming rushed in.
“My popcorn and tissues, I guess I’m gonna cry so much in this movie” she said.
Ming rushed to get them.
She c@m£ back some minutes later and handed it to Arizona.
“Nothing beats watching movie with a big bowl of popcorn” she smiled as Ming left.
Yang rushed in.
” Don’t tell me I have a conference to attend or meeting or more do¢v-ments to check out or…
” Owner of HAESUNG UNIVERSITY is calling, Mrs Hwang” he interrupted.
She pointed out her hand and he placed the phone on it.
“Miss Arizona?” Mrs Hwang said.
“On the line” she replied, throwing a popcorn into her mouth.
“I’m really sorry about what happened between you and our student yesterday” Mrs Hwang said.
” It’s ok, he c@m£ to say sorry alre-ady” she replied, smiling.
” Really?, Then can we reschedule the seminar?, Anytime you’re free” Mrs Hwang said.
” Yang how many appointments do I have tommorow?” She whispered.
“Just four” he replied.
” Then fix it for tommorow, Ligament will tell you the time tommorow morning” she said.
” Ligament?” Mrs Hwang said in confusion.
“I mean… Yang” she replied.
“Oh..ok we’ll be expecting you” Mrs Hwang said and Arizona hung up before returning the phone to Yang.
” When will you forget the incident and also st©p calling me Ligament?” He asked and Arizona smiled.
” The incident last year, how can I forget” she laughed.
Yang secretly rolled eyes.
” Your eyes might just fall off” she said and he quic-kly st©pped.
” Do you have eyes at the back of your head or something?” He said.
” Leave and let me enjoy my movie in peace, Anara Sumanara” she said.
” What’s that?” He asked in confusion.
” Watch the sound of magic” she replied and he left the office.
She smiled when she remembered tonight again.
“What’ll my d@t£ be like?, Scary?
Of course… Scary.

HAESUNG UNIVERSITY**
“You should really become a professor Vince, I envy your br@in” Chrissy said, looking at his test results.
Full marks in all subjects.
“I dream of becoming something more cool” he replied.
“What’s that?” She asked interestedly.
” I nee-d to use the restroom” he said, standing up.
“Ok don’t take long” she replied and he left the clas-s.
He entered the male restroom and opened the first door.
He slightly pu-ll-ed down his trou-sers and was easing himself when someone hvgged him from behind.
“Whoa!, Your di-ck is cute!” Summer’s voice said.
He shook her away and pu-ll-ed up his trou-sers before facing her, looking shocked.
“What did you just do?” He said.
Summer smiled and rested on the zinc bowl.
” I trailed you here and entered with you unnoticed, then hvgged you from behind, I caught a glimpse of your di-ck, it’s so cute!” she win-ked, b!tt!g herl-ip.
” Must you go this far?, Why must you always prove that you’re a nuisance” he said, his eyes showing how angry he Is.
“I love you, don’t you get it?, Do I have to write that in a board and take it round the whole Haesung before you un-derstand?, I want you” she replied, coming closer.
” I un-derstand your mum owns the school but that doesn’t mean you own the students, I’ve said this several times but I’ll say it again, stay away from me” he said flatly and didn’t bother to bolt his belt before trying to go out but the door is locked.
“I locked it” she said.
He faced her.
“Open the door” he glared.
“Promise me you’ll always talk to me first” she replied.
” Open the door” he said, walking to her.
” Tell me you’ll always talk to me else I’ll have to shout and tell everyone that you’re trying to r@p£ me” she replied seriously.
” You really have plans to ruin me” he said.
“I love you and I want you for myself, just give me what I want and I’ll make you the king of boys in this school Vince, plea-se” she begged.
He got to her and started trying to take the key from her, she hid it behind actually.
He stretched his arms behind her and she hvgged him.
He tried breaking free but she started c@r£ss!nghis b©dy.
“I’ll wound you” he warned.
“Do it and go to jail” she replied, looking up at him.
He’s breathing heavily.
She smiled devilishly.
“I love you” she said and stood on her toes, trying to k!sshim.
Just a little before theirl-ips will t©uçh, Vince turned her back to himself and wriggled the keys from her.
She fell as a result of the struggle.
He opened the door and rushed out of the restroom.
“Vince!” Summer shouted after him.

FLOWERS HIGH**
It’s lunch break today again but this time, Blaze decided to stroll instead of sitting in clas-s, doing nothing.
He started walking around the school, taking plea-sure in the sightseeing till someone tapped him.
He looked back to see a guy, he’s surely in his clas-s and like he heard, he’s a big bully, he has a crush on Havana, he’s Byung
He has three other guys who are also bullies behind him, his dogs.
“Didn’t you hear the history of I and Havana?, Why are you always around her?” He questioned.
” She’s my friend and seatmate, we’re clas-smates too so why can’t I talk to her” Blaze replied and Byung smiled evilly before giving Blaze a punch on the jaw.
Blaze staggered and hit his back on a tree.
He faced the guys with his bloodyl-ips and nose.
“Why would you punch me” he said.
Byung made to punch him again but he held his arm and punched him instead, s£nding him to the ground with that one punch.
The other bullies attacked him at once, ma-king it impossible to fight back.
They made him fall and started giving him ha-rd kicks and punches till he bled allover the face.
“Change your seat tommorow, if you’re seen anywhere around Havana again, then you’re dead” Byung threatened and left with his gang.
Blaze sat up, breathing heavily.
He looked at his alre-ady messed up shi-t and sighed.
“I knew it won’t be easy in here” he muttered.
A shrill laughter made him look up to see Avery not far from him.
“You look pitiful right now, your handsome face just got bruised up, how yummy!” She mocked.
He stood and started leaving but she obstructed him.
“Just stick with me instead” she said.
“Appear in my videos instead and no one will beat you up” she offered.
He took another way and left
Avery took the other way too.
“You’ll still come begging” she smiled.

A DEp@rtMENTAL Sto-re, 2PM**
The staffs of the sto-re greeted respectfully when Arizona entered with Ming and Yang behind her.
Anytime she comes to shop, there’s always bonuses for everyone.
She shops at least thrice a week.
She re-moved her shades and threw it to Yang who caught it.
She started walking around the hangers, picking anything she finds attrac-tive.
She never looks at anything twice.
Once she looks at it and likes it, she’s picking it.
Almost thirty minutes, she’s still picking.
“The car trunk is full alre-ady” Yang said.
“Tell the driver to contact another driver, I have more than ten drivers if I can still remember” she replied and continued shopping.
Yang looked at Ming and they both sighed before Yang made the call.
She was still shopping when another person entered.
Arizona smiled, smelling her scent.
Arielle.
She st©pped shopping and walked down the lane, meeting Arielle at the end of it.
Arielle is with Bing and two of her staffs.
“Oh, the shoppaholic is here” Arielle said.
“Rotten pizza is here” Arizona replied.
“What!, Rotten…. rotten what?” Arielle said.
“Ion like repeating myself, that’s why I always talk loud and clear” Arizona replied.
” Heard you messed up with Kevin” Arielle said with a mocking smile.
” Are you jealous that I should have messed up with you instead?, Did you miss me?” Arizona replied with a slow but witchy smile.
” If you get the contract, that means my name is not Arielle” Arielle said.
” Your name isn’t Arielle initially, it’s rotten pizza” Arizona replied.
” Yaa!, I hate you” Arielle sh0t angrily.
” I don’t hate you, I’m just simply not excited about your existence” Arizona replied simply.
Arielle breathed in anger.
“I’d have just burnt you right now but my mum told me not to burn trash” she said.
” Oh wow!, That’s why you haven’t burnt yourself” Arizona smiled.
Yang laughed out so loud and when Bing couldn’t hold it anymore, he laughed out loud too.
“Two wrongs don’t make a right, I’d have gave you a dose of your your medicine” Arielle said.
” Yes two wrongs don’t really make a right, take your parents as an example” Arizona replied and Yang finally fell, laughing so much.
“I’ll kill you!!’ Arielle shouted and rushed to Arizona, gr-abbing her hair r0ûghly.
Arizona gr@bb£d her hair too and they started pu-lling each other’s hairs.
“You dysfunctional bit-ch!, You’re a b*t h!” Arielle spat.
” You say that as if it’s a bad thing” Arizona replied, pu-lling her hair more ha-rd .
Yang had to stand and join Bing.
They started trying to dis£ntangle them.

THE MENDELSSOHN’S HOUSE**
Alena almost screamed when she saw Blaze’s face.
He c@m£ back from school with a swollen face full of bruises.
“Blaze!” She exclaimed, rushing to him.
“Why is your face like this?, Were you bullied at school?, Who did this to your face?” She questioned.
” I’m fine mum” he replied, trying to go in but she held him.
“Talk to me alre-ady what happened to your face!”
” Ok I fell” he replied.
” Do you think I don’t have a br@in?, You fell and your face bec@m£ like this?”
” Mum I’m fine I promise, I nee-d to go pu-ll off my uniform” he said.
” Why is your uniform a mess too?” She asked, looking at it.
” Mum I’m fine, have you eaten?” He asked as he entered the room.
Alena quic-kly got her phone and dialled her friend’s line.
“I’ll take the job, when should I start?” She asked.
“Really?, Why did you suddenly change your mind?”
“I nee-d the money”
” Come to my place tommorow morning then we can go together”
” Ok” Alena replied and hung up.
” Blaze you nee-d to get your face treated” she said, entering the room.

DINE & SMILE RESTAURANT, 8PM**
Arizona c@m£ out of the car, looking as elegant as usual.
She adjusted the muffler on her go-wn and her phone rang, it’s her mum calling.
“Hey eomma” she smiled knowingly.
“Don’t tell me you’re still at home, I did a lot before I was able to arrange that man for you” Rita said.
” I’m in front of the restaurant alre-ady, you’ll hear about how it went later” Arizona replied.
” I want good news” Rita said.
” araseo ( ok )” she replied and hung up.
“Pepper” she called and her parrot flew from the car to her shoulder.
“Do a good job in there ok?” She said and Pepper chirped on her shoulder as she started walking in.
Everyone she c@m£ across stared at her.
*Who the hell comes with a parrot to a d@t£*
She entered the room reserved for them and met the man on seat alre-ady.
He looks petrified to see the parrot on her shoulder.
His eyes wi-de-ned.
Arizona has a tricky smile on her face as she went in fully.
“Hi!, Sorry if I kept you waiting!, It took a lot of time to get my parrot re-ady” she said and Pepper flew on the table, in front of the man.
” Meet Pepper” Arizona introduced.
“Aarrgggh!!!!” The man screamed, so scared of the parrot.
Arizona stood surprisingly, looking at him.
“Take it away!, I hate parrots!, Get it off!” He shouted, hiding behind her.
” You have a p*nis and you’re scared of parrots?” She said.
“Pepper” she called and it flew on her shoulder again.
He stepped away from her and Arizona sat.
“Sit, if you’re re-ady for this d@t£” she said.
The man sat fearfully, avoiding the eyes of the parrot.
“You won’t say your name Mr Parrot phobia?” She said.
“Steve” he replied and Arizona smiled.
” Arizona” she said.
” Nice to meet you” he said.
“I’ll decide if it’s nice to meet you or not after this d@t£” she replied and pressed a bell on the table
A server appeared.
“Spaghetti squash, meatba-lls and…
She looked up and g@sped when she saw Vince.
“Anaconda?, You work at H-HEY, how come you’re here again”.
“Spaghetti squash, meatba-lls and what? ” He asked, ignoring her question.
” Any available red wine” she replied.
” Same thing” Steve said.
Vince looked at the parrot on Arizona’s shoulder again before leaving to get the orders.
“What do you like in a lady?” Arizona asked.
“I love coolheaded ladies” he replied.
“Oh”
” I love a lady that I’m comfortable with, I love….I love…
He started stammering, looking at the parrot’s eyes.
It looks so scary the way it’s turning.
“Love what?” She asked.
“A lady who doesn’t like parrots” he replied and Pepper chirped loudly, rolling it’s eyes.
” Ahhhhhh!!!’ he screamed in fright, rushing out of the place Immediately.
Arizona laughed out loud, patting Pepper.
“He’s a coward, rat-snake” she smiled.
Vince c@m£ with the orders and settled them on the table.
She dropped the money on the table and stood.
“You aren’t eating what you ordered?” He asked.
“I c@m£ here for show, the show ended so I should go” she smiled.
He looked at the money on the table and the dishes.
“So you work here too?” She asked.
“Do I nee-d to write it on my forehead?” He replied, taking the money.
” You must have a lot of p@rt time jobs, myeot sariya? (how old are you?)” She asked.
“I don’t have to tell you that” he replied but she pu-ll-ed the ID on his n£¢k and her eyes caught his age luckily, she g@sped shockingly.
“22!, and you’re talking to me casually?, How rude” she curved herl-ips.
He started walking out and she made to follow when reporters rushed in.
Her heart skipped beats
Vince’s eyes wi-de-ned.
“Who let them in” he muttered as they surrounded Arizona, snapping her pictures and asking questions.
?️ Did you really come here on a d@t£?
?️ It’s the first time, your fans would love to know how it went.
?️ Who’s the lucky guy?
As the c@m£ra lights flashed repeatedly on Arizona’s face, her vision bec@m£ blurry and she started getting the deja Vu again.
Fifteen years ago…. Arielle and the bad boys.
She held her head and tears c@m£ out of her eyes as she pushed the reporters out of the way.
She blindly walked out of their midst, her eyes are opened but she can’t see anything as she walked.
She bu-mped into something ha-rd and st©pped, it’s actually Vince’s che-st.
Her head is still pounding with the memories….
“Miss” Vince called, not bothering to hold her.
She looked up at him, her vision is slowly coming back but it’s blurry, she held his shi-t ti-ghtly in the front.
“S…sa… save me” she whispered, her whole b©dy shaking on his own, she’s sweating so much alre-ady.
She went limp after saying that, pas-sing out in his arms immediately.
She almost sli-pped to the ground but Vince held her back, holding her ti-ght with wi-de eyes.
He looked at his n£¢klace and held her ti-ghter.
“Call an ambulance!” Someone shouted.
