Due to this she developed attachment issues which prolonged her attitude to be bad and quiet. She genuinely don't want to have relationship to any people but only one person changed the view of her life.

So come on! Let's read!
(~ ̄³ ̄)~
XINNIX
Hi! I'm Xinnix Lei Halstead.
I currently graduated so I probably turned as a freshman here in my school.
I really don't like to describe my appearance and would like you to just imagine anything that suits me. So thank you!
ZYRAN
Hello. I'm Zyran Van Foster your male lead!
I'm in same year with Xinnix and class. So.. I don't know if Xinnix can read this but.. I really don't like her attitude. She's so bad.. But not that bad because she just keeps quiet though and I don't want girl like those. They're my least favorite.
Though.. I can be friends with her! I'll really give it a try..
MARGAN
Margan here. I just really hate Xinnix.
She gets my spotlight every seconds and I hate that about her.
I liked Zyran first.. But this Xinnix she ruined everything for me.
I will come in later here in this story. I can't wait to break her happy moments.
Xinnix lives in a suburban where mostly it's a forest.
Her mom cooks for their family every breakfast.
Their dad works a full 24/7 shift in weekdays and day offs in weekends. So he rarely comes home. (A police officer)
Xinnix have a younger sister and she's in her tenth grade.
It's Xinnix's first day of school as a freshman and she didn't liked the idea to continue her school days because of past events and traumas she experienced at her latter school.
EXTRA ROLE
Xinnix's Mother:
Kids time to wake up! Or else I won't give you your POCKET MONEYS! (She strongly shouted as she boldly highlighted the word POCKET MONEY)
XINNIX
What the.. (Barely wokes up and started to head off downstairs)
EXTRA ROLE
Xi's Sister:
Mom! This food taste soo good! Can I have an extra allowance? We're going out with my friends.
XINNIX
(There she goes again..)
EXTRA ROLE
Xi's Mother:
Well.. I really don't know.. Dear. Make sure to come back home straight and never come home late okay? Here (Hands a 2,000 peso bill)
Unlike your sister because.. She'll now come home late because of her medicine school life..
Xinnix. Be careful on your way home okay? It's really scary here in our neighborhood..
(Hands a 5,000 peso bill)
XINNIX
Yes mom.. Don't worry.
Done. I'm now going to take a bath. (Runs to her room with a bathroom in it)
Xinnix got herself ready and got off in her own.
XINNIX
Woah. A black puppies..
I don't think I'll be late.. Just let me pat them a little.
(Pats the four little puppies)
So cute..
XINNIX
(Looks at her watch)
Oh I gotta go. Bye pups!
She arrived at her school by a bus and started to look for her classroom.
As she further looked she got in but she didn't expect the professor to humiliate her in front of several students.
EXTRA ROLE
MATHEMATICS PROFESSOR:
Stop right there. What's your name? (The professor said as he puts down his marker from the board and focused in his new student.)
XINNIX
Uhh.. (What the heck does this old man wants from me? This is already embarrassing enough as I walk in.. I think there's at least a 100 students here..)
Good morning I'm Xinnix Lei Halstead and sorry for being late sir. I'd like to apologize for this inconvenience I have started.
Xinnix answered confidently and the professor seemed to be delighted with her response as she took it lightly with no problems.
EXTRA ROLE
MATH PROFESSOR:
Okay. Take note those who were late earlier be this polite in answering and greet.
Okay Ms. Halstead you may take your sit.
EXTRA ROLE
OTHER STUDENTS:
1: What? The professor seemed to favor this girl already. She doesn't even look that great.
2: Well.. Talk about her hair.. She have that low ponytail while her hair is still not dry.
3: She doesn't give looks to be honest..
XINNIX
(As I encountered the other students in my chair. I couldn't stop hearing their murmurs about me. I didn't knew my schedule were 7:30 in the morning.. So I'm late.. )
The lecture have been finished and 1 hour break is in. No other students got to talk with Xinnix.
XINNIX
*Sighs* Canteen.. Where would be the canteen?
EXTRA ROLE
OTHER STUDENT:
Hey! I think this was your notebook. (The student approached her and Xinnix stopped walking)
XINNIX
Oh! That's mine. Thank you. (Surprising enough. I'd like not to have acquaintance as much as possible, they're annoying.)
XINNIX
(I got it and smiled)
EXTRA ROLE
OTHER STUDENT:
Umm! Please wait! Can..Can I have your cellphone num-
Xinnix got annoyed and showed her fake smile.
XINNIX
Oh! Haha. This is awkward but sorry. I have a boyfriend.
(I knew it. I thought he was a thief for snatching my notebook. I would've let it passed if he can't afford that.. but he wanted my number?)
(Sorry but I gotta break it to you.)
EXTRA ROLE
OTHER STUDENT:
What? It doesn't seem like it. How come you have one when you look like a housekeeper?
Haha (laughs greedily)
Because of this. Xinnix decided to ignore the student and continued to look for the canteen as she is too hungry to fight.
Though the male student seemed annoyed because he didn't annoyed enough Xinnix.
He started to follow Xinnix as Xinnix felt uncomfortable and started to head off in the female comfort room.
She locked the door and stayed their for 10 minutes.
She got out and perceived that the boy is gone so she quickly ran in the canteen.
XINNIX
What does that boy wants from me? I basically didn't draw any attention today though..
XINNIX
I better get snacks..
EXTRA ROLE
OTHER STUDENT:
That girl is not that smart enough huh? No fun.. *smirks*
XINNIX
(I got some bread and a hot americano to soothen my mood)
XINNIX
The snacks taste so good.. The grannies were so kind..
Xinnix happily eats her snacks but the male student sat beside her.
EXTRA ROLE
OTHER STUDENT:
Hi! Xinnix right? *smiles as he took Xinnix's bread and munched it as if he bought it*
Xinnix already seemed annoyed but she quickly eats her snacks in front of her but the student keeps eating it.
The student choked in his food as he was surprised by Xinnix word.
EXTRA ROLE
OTHER STUDENT:
Oh? You can talk like that? Hahaha!!
Aa.. I'm so happy so I'm Cassius. (Draws his left hand for a handshake)
Cassius the school clown that likes to draw himself in with other students life.
He likes to make a person's life miserable as the other students labeled him as school clown and a psychopath.
Xinnix didn't liked his behavior so she decided to keep quiet and leave him again.
Though Cassius didn't liked this response so she grabbed her hand.
And made her sat in his lap.
Xinnix was surprised and quickly removed herself to him.
XINNIX
Are you insane!!!? What do you want?
(I can't help but let my emotion go through me.)
XINNIX
(I was supposed to relax myself today and don't want attention but look at this animal.) *scoffs*
XINNIX
(He don't want to leave me alone.. I'm going insane.. Other students are taking a picture..)
CASSIUS
Woah.. Calm down lady. I just want to be friends with you.?
CASSIUS
But it seems you don't want me? That hurts my feelings.. I just want to get to know you..
As Cassius said that, he's faking his sad face as if he cares.
But in truth he just want to play around.
XINNIX
Please. I'm.. Tired so please just leave me alone will you? I'm sorry if I hurted you but pleasd I'm begging you I want to be alone.
XINNIX
Can you do that please? *I'm going insane... Insane..*
CASSIUS
You should be kind to me because I'd like to be friends with you..
CASSIUS
Other kids already started a rumor that you almost committed suicide?
CASSIUS
*Aa.. Look at that beautiful face..*
Xinnix gnawed her lips as she thought those rumors didn't got out but what did she expect.
XINNIX
I'm going to report you to the dean.
CASSIUS
HAHAHA! What? That's hilarious.. You'd think those people are here?
CASSIUS
I'd like to see you try.. *wipes his tears because of how happy he is*
Students hurried to go in their class so is Xinnix.
CASSIUS
Ugh.. Class again? Don't you think this is just a waste of time?
Cassius tagged along with Xinnix all day and Xinnix is losing her composure.
XINNIX
Ma'am can I take a leave? I'm having a headache.
EXTRA ROLE
NURSE:
Oh? Let me get you a medicine first before you get out.
XINNIX
(Please make it quick I hate to see that bastard again)
EXTRA ROLE
NURSE:
Here dear. You may go I'll just tell it to tour adviser.
As Xinnix opened the door. She saw Cassius.
CASSIUS
Oh? You're also having a headache?
CASSIUS
Aww.. That's too bad..
The two of them got out and waiting for a bus.
CASSIUS
I'm surprised you're so composed Xinnix.. You're mature to handle your emotions..
CASSIUS
Aa do you want to ride in my car? I'll drive you home. *smiles*
XINNIX
Please mind your business.
XINNIX
*I feel like vomiting.. Why do I feel so weak today.*
XINNIX
*But it's a great idea to ride his car and vomit on it..*
XINNIX
*I'll just do it once and he will leavd me alone?*
CASSIUS
You really don't want to?
CASSIUS
The rain is dropping out right now~
XINNIX
Okay.. Just this time because I don't feel that great.
CASSIUS
Gotcha! Wait for me here!
Cassius drove his BMW in front of Xinnix and showed it off to her as he slided the windows.
CASSIUS
Come in. *Wears a shade*
XINNIX
Huh? You're from a well off family..
Xinnix tried to look for the back row seat but it seems like there aren't.
CASSIUS
Oh? It's just a two passenger seat you know?
XINNIX
You should've told me. (glares)
CASSIUS
HAHA there now princess come in.
Other students murmured as how Cassius opened the car door for Xinnix.
XINNIX
I can do it myself..
CASSIUS
I'm afraid it's your first time to ride a car like this though?
XINNIX
Just drive me home..
CASSIUS
So demanding~ *smiles*
The two drove off where Xinnix resides.
But Xinnix is feeling a bit uncomfortable because she's stopping her puke.
XINNIX
Hey.. Can we stop a little bit?
CASSIUS
What? Are you not feeling well that bad?
CASSIUS
But you were so brave to respond in my annoyance you know?
XINNIX
Ugh.. I'm going to puke.. Really..
CASSIUS
W-What? Okay okay.. (Where should I sto-)
Xinnix couldn't stop it and she freely puked inside the car.
Cassius stopped the car in a gas station and was dissapointed his car got puked by a stranger.
XINNIX
Ugh.. I'm sorry you bastard.. I'm really not feeling well..
CASSIUS
Bit seriously!? Arghh! You should've rode the bus if I knew this is going to happen..
XINNIX
Bastard it was your idea first!
XINNIX
Now you're saying it's on me?
XINNIX
So it's basically your fault!
XINNIX
You know you- Oh s***
Xinnix fainted and Cassius didn't knew what to do.
CASSIUS
Damn it.. This is what I get for slouching off..
The Rivalry Wouldn't End Here
CASSIUS
What am I going to do here?
CASSIUS
But aside from this..
CASSIUS
She's so light.. Does she even eat?
CASSIUS
(This girl is lying down right now.. Like how come did she just got in a stranger's car?
I really can't figure out this woman.
It's dissapointing she puked in my car though..)
CASSIUS
When will you get up lady like??
CASSIUS
I'm going to go out and shower.. I smell like barf.
The hotel that they're staying are on of Cassius's father runs. They're a well-off family that inherited a global family business.
Cassius got back from the hotel and Xinnix still hasn't woken up.
CASSIUS
Are you kidding me? Please wake upp!
CASSIUS
Xinnix? I need to call a doctor..
CASSIUS
But that would be a pain in the ass.. My brother got my card..
CASSIUS
I got a medicine here tho..
Cassius is aware that the the puke is everywhere in Xinnix's clothes.
This keep bothering him and want to act like a gentleman but it hurts his pride that he have to do the deed
CASSIUS
(I don't think I should clean her.. It's a girl!)
CASSIUS
I'm losing my mind.! It's a bad choice I messed with her..
CASSIUS
It's alright.. Once this girl wakes up. She can clean herself.. I'll leave her here and then.. Yeah. Problem solved.
Cassius said proudly so he got up and left his cellphone number in the table if ever Xinnix have inquiries.
Xinnix got up and wondering where she is.
She quickly grabbed her phone and looked at it.
Several missed calls and messages have showed up.
She started to recall and regain consciousness.
XINNIX
Damn it.. What have I done..
XINNIX
I smell so bad though?
XINNIX
Oh my!? I puked!? I better apologize..
XINNIX
Of course I won't.. This will serve as his punishment I hoped he learned his lesson..
XINNIX
(I feel a bit guilty as if it's my fault..) Urgh.. But where am I really?
Xinnix looked around and saw the note that Cassius left so she quickly cleaned herself and got out in that massive 5 star hotel.
Xinnix messaged her mother that she got caught in a puddle and she believed that.
The other day started as if nothing happened and both continued their living.
The both students attended their class as if nothing happened.
Because of the matter that Xinnix puked at Cassius's car he didn't want to mess with her again after what occurred.
XINNIX
This is such a win win.. (Feels proud)
XINNIX
Men love their car after all!
XINNIX
(I decided to go to the cafeteria and eat a bounty of foods at the grannies corner.)
Murmuring students can be heard and it's loud as it is but Xinnix ignored those as she quickly eats her snacks.
CASSIUS
I don't know dude! Haha..
CASSIUS
(This uncomfortable. Why the heck is this idiot sticking to me?)
EXTRA ROLE
CASSIUS'S FRIEND:
But dude. Didn't you knew? That man is going back here to resume his education after his modelling career.
It was said he's going to pursue being a doctor..
If I were him I would just pick the easier job.. Unlike this one.. Chemistry and Biology~
As his friend said this he weren't shock though he was dissapointed because that was his former rival.
CASSIUS
Give me some space.
Cassius left and felt a little of anxious through the day.
He saw Xinnix and was about to play with her a little bit but she already rode the bus.
CASSIUS
Why's nothing going in my way today..
Cassius also decided to go home.
That Fake Bastard is Back
FREYMAN ACADEMY OF MEDICAL COLLEGES
The name of their academy.
EXTRA ROLE
FREYMANIAN STUDENTS:
Aa! Finally he's back! The king is back!! (Screaming in the hallway)
Well~ Let's put our make up on if I suggest!
The fans of the male student couldn't sit still and held a little grand celebration because he's back.
The King they're calling is back in his throne.
The female students wouldn't shut their mouths and the faculty members couldn't stop them from being noisy.
They tried to threaten them by saying they'll get minus points in the midterms but the students awaits their Kings back to back celebration.
Balloons, cakes baked by the students we're prepared and several bouquets are presented in the hallway.
This King left impacyin their academy as he ranked top 1 in every class surpassing his seniors.
A lot of higher seniors were intimidated by his intelligence quotient as he's younger as well.
A black car showed up and it's taken as the King's.
The man got out and ladies were screaming.
XINNIX
What!?? Please I'm late!
Xinnix was wondering how long the queue is but she tried her best this time not to be late.
She got caught in a parade of nobody to her too.
XINNIX
Please what's going on?
XINNIX
Let me through! (Accidentally pushed other student)
The student immediately got up as she slapped Xinnix.
Xinnix was about to help her but was surprised oh how the student acted.
XINNIX
(I couldn't stop myself from slapping her back so I slapped back.)
XINNIX
Hey! I'm sorry okay?
FREYMANIAN STUDENTS didn't give a damn about the two ladies fighting so Xinnix just escaped and got in her class at the right time.
XINNIX
(Panting so hard) *huff*
CASSIUS
HAHA! This is what you get when you don't have a car or at least a bike Xinnix.. (laughs so hard because Xinnix looked dumb as she got in her class)
Xinnix couldn't help it and rolled her eyes.
CASSIUS
Ha. I can't believe that idiotic bastard is back..
Cassius sits together beside Xinnix and she couldn't stop him as she listens to the professor.
XINNIX
(I admit that I'm curious but no I don't want to talk with this guy here.)
Her pride shouldn't be defeated I must say. HAHA
CASSIUS
Anyways I really don't know but I hope he don't choose our class..
CASSIUS
Oh you respond! (freakishly smiled)
XINNIX
It's just it would be a pain in the ass if he'll be with us here.. Other students might want to switch or enroll in our class. (Rudely copies everything in the board)
CASSIUS
HAHA!! Well I relate and agree with you..
CASSIUS
Cus he's really annoying..
XINNIX
I'm sorry but stop talking.
XINNIX
I need to lock in and pass this subject.
CASSIUS
(Sadly faced the board.)
The two student quietly listened in the lecture.
But they did expect the unexpected because the King chose their class.
Students started to murmur.
Cassius faced the reality and decided to accept reality.
CASSIUS
Ha.. S***. I'm screwed. (─.─||)
XINNIX
I noticed this but are you afraid of him? *smirks*
CASSIUS
Me? I would always go one v one with him since my childhood~
CASSIUS
He always looses though ¯\_( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)_/¯

CASSIUS
Of course not ┐(´(エ)`)┌
XINNIX

CASSIUS

XINNIX
You should just suit yourself.. Go anywhere but not here..
XINNIX
(continues to write)
EXTRA ROLE
What!? I'm Zyran by the way. (hands out for a handshake)
XINNIX
(stops writing and puts down her pen again)
XINNIX
I didn't ask your name. Please just go sit already.
ZYRAN
I better sit here and let you learn a lesson.
XINNIX
(I think he's too immature.. Is he a kid!?)
XINNIX
You're too immature for yourself you know?
XINNIX
Then suit yourself prick. ಠ_ಠ
ZYRAN
What? (sits in his chair)
ZYRAN
(I don't know but this is the person I've met is the rudest of them all.. ¯\_ಠ_ಠ_/¯)
Zyran sat beside her but Xinnix is annoyed again because she have to handle two men.
